Liu Shaoge helplessly leaned against the wall and looked at Puyu's corpse at the bottom of the tower. "I was a step too late. I should have persuaded him to leave the moment the so-called anti-Great Eastern Territory Alliance appeared. If he didn't die, I wouldn't have died either."
Lu Yin slowly raised a hand. "You're very accurate."
"There's something even more accurate." Liu Shaoge's lips curled up as he raised his gadget. "Brother Lu, take a look."
Lu Yin looked over and his expression changed. "Six Honor Points?
Why do you have it? "
Lu Yin was truly astonished. His Honor Points had not been easy to come by. He had obtained one from his meritorious service at Erudite Flowzone's border warfront, and another from his victory in the Tournament of the Strongest. The remaining four points had come from Ironblood Weave's Life and Death Battlefield. Now, he had eleven points, which Elder Lohar had made an exception to grant him the right to enter the Daosource Sect. It could be said that every single Honor Point had not been easy to come by, but how had Liu Shaoge obtained six points?
"I originally didn't want to expose myself, but brother Lu has already released his killing intent. I have no choice but to expose myself," said Liu Shaoge regretfully.
Lu Yin stared at Liu Shaoge. "Even if you have six Honor Points, I'll still kill you."
"What? Brother Lu, are you not afraid of the Hall of Honor?" Liu Shaoge provoked.
Lu Yin was about to speak when he suddenly thought of something. "The Hall of Honor is the supreme ruler of the Human Domain, and it maintains the balance of the Human Domain. It will not interfere with power struggles, and it will only protect those with more than eleven Honor Points. Six Honor Points isn't enough for the Hall of Honor to take action."
Liu Shaoge smiled. "The situation is different now. The Innerverse and Outerverse have been separated. To the Hall of Honor, anyone with Honor Points must be protected. Brother Lu, you're not thinking of rebelling against the Hall of Honor, are you?"
"I respect the Hall of Honor very much."
"Hahahaha, Brother Lu, you're very smart." Liu Shaoge laughed heartily as a figure stepped out of the void. It was the Enlighter who had left earlier.
Lu Yin's eyes flashed. "Greetings, senior."
The middle-aged man grunted and then looked at Lu Yin. "Liu Shaoge is right. The situation in the Outerverse is different now, and six Honor Points proves that he has contributed greatly to the Human Domain. Little brother, I hope that you can let him off for the sake of the Hall of Honor."
Lu Yin replied, "Since Senior has spoken, this junior will naturally comply."
The middle-aged man smiled and nodded. He then looked at Liu Shaoge coldly. "The Hall of Honor isn't something you can use. As punishment, one Honor Point will be deducted."
Liu Shaoge hurriedly replied respectfully, "Yes, Senior. This junior accepts Senior's punishment."
The middle-aged man glanced at the two of them again before leaving.
After the middle-aged man left, Lu Yin and Liu Shaoge exchanged glances and smiled at the same time.
Lu Yin was laughing at Liu Shaoge's intelligence, but he was also laughing at his own quick reaction. Liu Shaoge's words had been deliberately provocative, and he had wanted Lu Yin to say something unfavorable to the Hall of Honor in order to make the Hall of Honor unhappy with him. Fortunately, Lu Yin had reacted in time and seen the boundless number of rune lines appear. Only then had his words been filled with respect for the Hall of Honor. Otherwise, even if that Enlighter powerhouse did not have the ability to punish Lu Yin, he would have definitely planted a seed of dissatisfaction in his heart.
Liu Shaoge was too smart. Not only did he use his Honor Points to save his life, he also wanted to scheme against him.
This was also the reason why the Enlighter had punished Liu Shaoge.
Liu Shaoge laughed at the fact that he had managed to keep his life. "Brother Lu, I've disappointed you."
"If there's a chance, we'll consider it a draw."
Liu Shaoge sighed in admiration. "Brother Lu is really smart. I'll be more careful when dealing with you in the future."
"Then be careful. It won't be so easy for you to escape next time." Lu Yin waved a hand and turned to leave the tower.
"Brother Lu, my words still count. Think about it carefully. If you want to make an enemy out of the Innerverse, you'll need help." Liu Shaoge laughed loudly.
Lu Yin's eyes flickered. Make an enemy out of the Innerverse?
The Innerverse was currently being invaded by the Sixth Mainland, and it was hard to say if those powers would still exist when the Innerverse and Outerverse recovered.
Lu Yin had already seen Liu Shaoge's methods many times, and it was not too surprising that he had not died this time. Lu Yin had originally thought that Liu Shaoge would escape, but he had never expected that the Hall of Honor would openly protect him and even try to scheme against him.
Liu Shaoge had entered Arbiter Zhenwu's eyes as an Earthling, and he had even become a member of the Outerverse Youth Council as a representative of the Daynight clan. This was something that even the heirs of some of the Innerverse's great powers could not accomplish, but Liu Shaoge had done it. Lu Yin had always been wary of Liu Shaoge, so even if he had not been able to kill Liu Shaoge this time, Lu Yin had publicly announced that East San Dios would be sealed off and that the Outerverse Youth Council would be temporarily suspended from interacting with the various weaves of the Outerverse.
The moment the Innerverse and Outerverse were separated, East San Dios's existence was no longer that important. However, Lu Yin's decision still shocked many of the Outerverse's powers.
Liu Shaoge did not have much of a reaction, and no one knew what he was thinking.
Yue Xianzi and the others found Lu Yin.
"Brother Lu, what should we do if East San Dios is sealed off?" Yue Xianzi asked.
Lu Yin smiled. "Follow me back to the Great Yu Empire."
Yue Xianzi's eyes flashed. "Become your subordinate?"
Lu Yin laughed. "You can treat the Great Yu Empire as the Outerverse Youth Council. I'm still a member, and you guys are still my subordinate members."
"I agree." An Shaohua was the first to speak up. Back in Ironblood Weave, he had wanted to rely on Lu Yin, but due to various circumstances, he had not been able to meet Lu Yin. This time, he wanted to completely rely on Lu Yin.
Ah Fan naturally agreed, as he had been sent to East San Dios by Lu Yin.
Barley also agreed, but Lu Yin did not take him with him. "If you leave, who will help me look after San Dios?"
Barley was puzzled. "Isn't San Dios sealed off?"
Lu Yin looked at the tower. "I have the authority to seal off San Dios, and Liu Shaoge, a true member of the council, also has the authority to open San Dios. You stay here and keep an eye on him."
"Understood," Barley replied.
Yue Xianzi looked at Lu Yin. "If we follow you back to the Great Yu Empire, what positions will you arrange for us?"
Lu Yin had not considered this question, as sealing off San Dios had been an impromptu decision.
He looked at Yue Xianzi, An Shaohua, and the others, only to discover that they had all broken through to the Explorer realm. Yue Xianzi and An Shaohua, in particular, had an enormous number of rune lines that surpassed most Cruisers. They were indisputably Realmbreakers. One of them was the young sect master of the Frostmoon Sect, while the other was the young master of Watermoon Villa.
"Come with me to the Great Yu Empire and join the First Squadron. I'll be the captain," Lu Yin said.
Yue Xianzi and An Shaohua exchanged glances, and they agreed without much thought. There was no point in staying in San Dios.
"Me too! Me too!" Zhao Ran ran over from nearby with a flustered expression. She looked at Lu Yin excitedly, but then she fell to the ground with a thump. When she got up, she looked confused. "Where am I?"
Lu Yin was speechless. He suddenly remembered that there was still this brat who kept losing her memories. Back then, he had pitied her and brought her to San Dios.
Lu Yin walked over to Zhao Ran, squatted down, and looked at her in amusement.
Zhao Ran looked at Lu Yin and blinked her large eyes. She looked very cute.
Lu Yin pointed at the necklace in front of her chest. Wendy Yushan had said that she had stored Zhao Ran's memories in a chip, and it was placed on the necklace. There was also a piece of paper inside that contained a portion of her memories.
Zhao Ran looked at the paper. "Ah, I remember now. You're a good person."
Lu Yin helped her up. "What were you trying to say?"
Zhao Ran was confused. "What?"
Lu Yin was stunned. "Nothing. How about I take you to my hometown?"
"Good person, I'll go wherever you want me to go. I'm lacking in goods, and I keep losing my memories." Zhao Ran was embarrassed.
This brat looked very pitiful, like an abandoned kitten. Lu Yin decided to let her stay in King Zishan's palace or send her to the princess' residence.
He had come alone, but he returned with several others.
When Lu Yin returned to Zenyu Star, Elder Lohar sent him a message saying that he had not found any evidence of Darkstar Gorge colluding with the Neohuman Alliance. He blamed Lu Yin for being too heavy-handed and should have kept Puyu for interrogation.
Lu Yin put down his gadget. Keep Puyu for interrogation?
That would not do. Everyone could tell that Darkstar Gorge had not colluded with the Neohuman Alliance, or else Puyu would not have been so stupid as to bring a Corpse King like Vulture with him. This was also one of the reasons why Wen Sansi had not taken action back then. However, the Hall of Honor was different. To them, anyone who had even the slightest connection to the Neohuman Alliance had to be completely destroyed unless that person was truly important.
Shenwu Continent was like this, and Darkstar Gorge was no exception. Elder Lohar had only blamed Lu Yin for acting too quickly and had no other intentions.
As for Darkstar Gorge, it no longer existed.
The moment Vulture had revealed his true body, Darkstar Gorge had already been sentenced to death.
The Hall of Honor's methods were chilling, and Lu Yin fell into deep thought as he stared at the night sky. He was of value to the Hall of Honor, and they would protect and favor him. If there came a day when he lost his value, the Hall of Honor would not hesitate to eliminate him. Not just him, but also everyone in the Great Yu Empire who was related to him.
The Hall of Honor's methods were a hundred times more ruthless than Lu Yin's. They were the true masters of the Human Domain, and once they made a move, everything would be over.
Darkstar Gorge was not worth mentioning in their eyes, and the same was true for the Great Yu Empire.
The Neohuman Alliance represented darkness, while the Hall of Honor represented light. However, in Lu Yin's eyes, the two were essentially the same, and they both had the power to kill.
Lu Yin suddenly felt a sense of urgency, both from the Sixth Mainland and from the Hall of Honor.
Within the Vastdearth Sect's main hall, many of the elders were engaged in a heated discussion. Sect Master Meng Tianlong was not present, as he had gone into seclusion. Lu Yin had not received any response from the elders, and he no longer held any hope.
When Meng Tianlong returned to the main hall, all of the elders were silent, and no one spoke.
"It looks like the elders have already come to a decision. Speak," Meng Tianlong said in a low voice as his gaze swept across the crowd before finally stopping on Elder Angio.
Elder Angio coughed and sighed. "Sect Master, all of us elders have unanimously agreed to join the Great Eastern Alliance."
Meng Tianlong was not surprised. News of Darkstar Gorge's destruction had already spread the previous day, and the strongest power in Adonis Weave had been destroyed just like that. Lu Yin had even personally killed Councilor Puyu of the Outerverse Youth Council, who was ranked thirteenth on the Top 100 Rankings.
Everyone had heard of Lu Yin's fame, and his battle achievements were the main reason why the Vastdearth Sect had been so hesitant. However, no one had any idea of his methods until now.
