Lu Yin shook his head. "That's not a necessary condition."
"But it's one of the most important conditions," Swordmaster Taicang emphasized.
Lu Yin's eyes narrowed. "That's why it's more important for you to participate."
Swordmaster Taicang emphasized again. "It's more important for me to participate as the Night Chief. I can't do without either."
"Actually, my goal is the same as Mister Lu's. We both want to get rid of Yue Ya. If Yue Ya becomes the Night Chief, even if he can't be the God of Defense anymore, he'll still be taken care of by the Eternal God. It'll be impossible for you to get rid of him. The Nine Heavens Universe won't allow an outsider to kill a Night Chief with great achievements. Otherwise, it'll be a joke."
Lu Yin understood this logic. He couldn't let Yue Ya become the Night Chief, or he'd have a protective talisman.
Yue Ya was a strong enemy that he had to get rid of. He wanted to get Yue Ya's thoughts, whether it was for revenge or for power.
The Primogenitor once said that without an Eternal God's body, it would be difficult to bear the power of an Eternal God's Verbal Skill. Yue Ya could continuously damage his body to bear the power, but Lu Yin couldn't.
However, Lu Yin believed that he'd be able to bear it one day. Even if he couldn't use Yue Ya for now, throwing him into the Hell of the Appointment Stage would increase his karma.
Yue Ya had lived for a long time, and he could increase his karma.
This kind of enemy shouldn't be left outside.
Lu Yin didn't believe that he'd make an enemy out of the entire Nine Heavens Universe, but he'd definitely be viewed as an enemy by many. It wasn't worth it.
Nine Heavens Universe was an existence that directly fought outside, and it might even go to the three universes in the future. It wanted control, not hostility.
So the only way was to chase Yue Ya out of the Fifth Night Pillar?
Swordmaster Taicang's words couldn't be trusted completely. Lu Yin pondered for a moment. "Has the Fifth Night Pillar been preparing for battle?"
Swordmaster Taicang's eyes flashed. This person had asked about this matter in the Silin Zone, and now he was asking about it again. This person was from the three universes. If there wasn't an external universe, then who was the Fifth Night Pillar's target?
He knew what this person was worried about.
"That's right."
"Target?"
"I don't know," Swordmaster Taicang said directly.
Lu Yin looked at him.
The Taicang Swordmaster replied seriously, "I really don't know. If I knew, the position of the Night Leader would have been mine a long time ago. Preparing for war is just preparing for war. There have been many situations in history where one prepared for war but did not fight.
"Who asked the Fifth Night Pillar to prepare?"
"Only Lord Immortal is qualified."
"Which Eternal Ruler?"
Swordmaster Taicang shook his head and said, "I don't know either. We reported to the Imperial Deity, but we didn't know which Imperial Deity we were dealing with. If Mister Lu doesn't believe me, you can ask Liu Li."
You don't know anything?
It wasn't that Lu Yin didn't believe them, but he was rather disappointed because he couldn't see the wills of the three Eternal Guardians.
Who was the enemy and who was the friend? He wanted to know.
But the Eternal Emperor wouldn't even let him know about this.
Was he really that unqualified?
Lu Yin said indifferently, "I can't guarantee that the Fifth Night Pillar will participate in the battle. I can only try my best."
The Taicang Swordmaster heaved a sigh of relief and said politely, "It is the honor of the Fifth Night Pillar to receive Mister Lu's help. I shall return to the Fifth Night Pillar and await your good news." With that, he turned and left.
Lu Yin took out the Brooch Silk and contacted Ming Zhuo.
The Taicang Swordmaster's words were definitely true and false, but he wouldn't lie to Lu Yin too much. After all, his relationship with Ming Zhuo had long since been made public, and everyone knew about it. However, Lu Yin still wanted to verify it, especially since he wanted to see if there was a third option.
"Junior Brother, I heard that you've done quite a few big things recently. Amazing, hahahaha." Ming Zhuo's image appeared and laughed heartily.
Lu Yin laughed, "What big things? I just caused some trouble."
Ming Zhuo laughed, "The people of Ye Hai aren't afraid of trouble. Others might not know, but how could I not know?
The Spring and Autumn Scroll and Jian Hong are both conditions. "
Lu Yin sighed, "The Seven Fairies are each more difficult than the last. Their conditions aren't simple."
Ming Zhuo laughed, "Stop complaining. It's not difficult for you. It's just that there are many people who are jealous. One guy said that after you're done causing trouble for the Eternity World, you're starting to cause trouble for Yu Jiuxiao. Hahaha, you didn't see how jealous he was."
Lu Yin was curious, "Who said that?"
"A disciple of the Alarm Sect."
Lu Yin wasn't surprised. Only the disciples of the Eternal Emperor would be jealous of their own kind. Otherwise, why would they be jealous? They would just pull him into their own sect.
Regardless of whether it was the Blood Tower or the Alarm Sect, they both had disciples who would compete with the disciples of the Blue Lotus Sect. However, from the looks of it, the disciples of the Blue Lotus Sect had the greatest influence.
"Oh, right. Why are you looking for me?
Oh, and help me tell Liu Li of the Sixth Night Pillar that I, the Fourth Night Pillar, want to join the battle. She will agree, "Ming Zhuo said.
"How's the relationship between the Fourth and Sixth Night Pillars?"
"Not bad. Eh? Does that mean the Fifth Night Pillar asked you for help?"
Lu Yin nodded, "Swordmaster Taicang just left."
Ming Zhuo was disdainful, "That old guy is too greedy this time. In the past, when he discovered the universe outside, it was all about benefits. He never went overboard like this. However, that old guy must have been forced by Yue Ya to do this. If he gets a foreign creature and reports it to the Emperor, the position of Night Leader will definitely be his."
Lu Yin's expression was serious, "This is also why I'm looking for you …"
Following that, Lu Yin told Swordmaster Taicang's words to Ming Zhuo. Ming Zhuo listened carefully and finally said, "That old guy didn't lie to you. If you insist on attacking Yue Ya, it's best to wait until he's expelled from the Fifth Night Pillar. Otherwise, many people in Jiuxiao will be unhappy with you, and that won't be good for you."
"But that old guy is also making things difficult for you. He wants you to plead with Liu Li. It's very difficult. The Sixth Night Pillar might be weak, but he still has a backbone. No matter what that old guy says, Liu Li rejected him. How can he agree? Don't agree, or you won't be able to do it."
Lu Yin said, "I know, but I have to deal with Yue Ya."
Ming Zhuo was troubled, "Yue Ya is a little troublesome. I haven't dealt with him much, but I know his strength. He's very strong, and not someone like Lu Sizhan or Swordmaster Taicang can compare to. Even I am not his match." He paused and then continued solemnly, "I'm not his match."
Lu Yin pretended to be surprised, "Even Senior is not his match?"
Ming Zhuo rolled his eyes, "Stop pretending. Although I'm very satisfied with your surprised look, I know my own limits. You were able to destroy the Spring and Autumn Scroll on your own, but that's not something I can do. Even Yue Ya might not be able to do that. You're definitely stronger than Yue Ya, so naturally, you're stronger than me."
"Senior, there's no need to belittle yourself."
"I'm just speaking the truth. Honest people are all like that."
Lu Yin smiled sheepishly.
Ming Zhuo continued, "The possibility of helping that brat Xiao Tong become the Night Chief is not high. I think that you should slow down a bit. Yue Ya broke the rules and went to the three universes. You two fought, right? If he thinks that he's not your match, then he definitely won't leave the Fifth Night Pillar. No, he can't leave even if he wants to. He's been exiled, so it'll be difficult for you to deal with him."
"I'll give you a clear path."
"Become the Fifth Night Pillar's Night Chief."
Lu Yin's brows rose, "The Fifth Night Pillar's Night Chief?"
Ming Zhuo nodded, "That's the only possibility. Become the Night Chief, banish Yue Ya, and then kill him. Yu Jiuxiao won't be able to find trouble with you."
"Yue Ya was exiled to the Fifth Night Pillar by the Eternal Ruler. Can the Night Chief banish him?"
"During wartime, the Night Chief has a lot of power, more than you can imagine. Why do you think that brat Xiao Tong wants to be the Night Chief?
The first generation ancestor of the Spring and Autumn Scroll was once the Night Chief, so he was able to bring the scroll out of the Sixth Night Pillar. The Sixth Night Pillar's decline was also a factor. "
"Now that I think about it, the Sixth Night Pillar was really unlucky. Right, did Liu Li trick you into staying in the Sixth Night Pillar?
Don't listen to her. The Sixth Night Pillar is too unlucky. Why don't you fight for the Fifth Night Pillar's Night Chief? "
Lu Yin was curious, "The Night Chief has a lot of power during wartime, but what about the Lesser God's power during wartime?
Can you banish Yue Ya? "
Ming Zhuo's expression changed, "Yes, but you'll offend the Blood Tower Lord who banished Yue Ya."
"There are some things that you can do as you wish within the rules, but breaking them will offend someone."
"If you banish Yue Ya from the Fifth Night Pillar as the Lesser God, then you'll be challenging the Blood Tower Lord's authority. Can you accept this result?"
Lu Yin's head hurt. It seemed like the only way was to become the Night Chief.
Becoming the Night Chief is the only way for you to deal with Yue Ya. Of course, an expedition to the outer universe is not simple. It is filled with danger. You have seen what happened to the Sixth Night Pillar. If you are unwilling, then wait. There will always be a chance. Yue Ya himself does not want to stay in the Fifth Night Pillar forever. He will think of a way to leave. You just have to ensure that you are stronger than him. "
"Don't worry. Just say the word, and the Ye Hai disciples will help you keep an eye on him. Yue Ya won't be able to escape." Ming Zhuo clenched his fist.
Lu Yin's heart warmed, "Thank you, Senior."
"You're welcome. I'll wait for the day when you call me Senior." Ming Zhuo smiled brightly.
Lu Yin was helpless. That day would never come.
"Right, Senior, I know the requirements to become the Lesser God. How can I fight for it?"
Ming Zhuo said, "You need two Lesser Gods to recommend you. Yu Sang Tian doesn't count. Then you have to report to the Blood Tower Lord, and the Blood Tower Lord will decide who will become the Lesser God.
"The number of people recommended by each Lesser God is not fixed. They may not only recommend one person, so your competitors are actually those recommended by the Lesser God."
"But Rushi is dead now, and Yue Ya has been stripped of his position. Rushi could have replaced him, but he returned to the Continent of the Nine Clouds, so he gave up the right to replace the Lesser God. So there are only two Lesser Gods left. One is Danhou, and the other is Xingfan."
Lu Yin frowned, "Only Danhou and Xingfan?"
Ming Zhuo sighed, "That's why I don't want you to go down this path. I can help Danhou. Danhou's Lesser God has never refused to recommend anyone. Xingfan is different. I don't know her, and she has a strange personality. Plus, you've offended her before, so …"
