Felynn laughed when she heard Lu Yin's words. She did not have Madam Nalan's seductive charm; instead, she had the warmth of a big sister next door. "Thank you for your praise, Mr. Lu. It's been hard on you to enter Sourcepeak Planet in disguise."
"What do you want to do? Tell me."
Felynn earnestly asked, "Does Mr. Lu know anything about the Outerverse Lockbreaker Society?"
Lu Yin shook his head.
"Actually, the Outerverse Lockbreaker Society's power structure is very simple. President Geoffrey has the greatest authority, and he can veto all of the other Lockbreakers' suggestions. Second only to the president is Vice President Saul, but this difference is like the difference between heaven and earth. Any of Saul's suggestions have to be approved by the three of us, as well as the Honorary Vice President. Even if the president isn't present, Saul still can't monopolize power."
"It's because of this rule that I want to work with Mr. Lu to overthrow Saul," Felynn said solemnly.
"How exactly?" Lu Yin asked.
Felynn replied, "Saul is determined to obtain True Insight, and he's using all sorts of methods to prevent Lockbreakers who threaten Deng Pu from participating in the competition. We already have substantial evidence, and as long as someone important steps forward to question Saul after the competition ends and before Deng Pu obtains True Insight, I'll be able to produce the evidence. At that time, Saul's dirty deeds will be exposed to the public, and even Sourcepeak Planet will not tolerate him."
Lu Yin nodded. "It seems like you've made sufficient preparations. If nothing unexpected happens, it should succeed, but …" He stared into Felynn's gentle eyes. "What will I gain from this?
If I step forward to accuse Saul, it'll be the same as exposing the Lockbreaker Society's Vice President's dirty deeds. I'll offend the entire Lockbreaker Society, and all Lockbreakers in the Outerverse will be humiliated. "
Felynn smiled. "Mr. Lu, you're overthinking things. When the time comes, I'll step forward to clarify this matter, and Mr. Lu definitely won't bear any consequences."
Lu Yin smiled. "Won't bear any consequences?
Saul is a Boundless Advanced Lockbreaker, and if he escapes, then I'll have another terrifying enemy. Mentor Felynn, if a Boundless Advanced Lockbreaker wants to take revenge on you, will you be able to sleep at night? "
Felynn's expression changed. "A lockbreaking tool and a power vessel. That'll be your reward."
"Are you saying that a Boundless Advanced Lockbreaker is only worth a lockbreaking tool and a power vessel?" Lu Yin's tone sank.
Felynn said, "Mr. Lu, don't forget that Saul was the one behind your assassination attempt. Even if you don't join forces with me, Saul won't let you go."
"Saul tried to assassinate me because I might be a threat to Deng Pu. If I'm no longer a threat to Deng Pu, then he won't do anything to me."
Deryn was silent.
Lu Yin wasn't in a hurry, as the deal had to be negotiated slowly. He didn't know what kind of price Felynn would be willing to pay for an enemy of a Boundless Advanced Lockbreaker. "There's something I'm curious about. Even if Saul is defeated by you, how are you going to stabilize your position as president?"
"The Honorary President, Fiend Li, doesn't have the right to run for president. This was set by President Geoffrey back then. Master Yi Feng isn't interested in the position of president, as he prefers to wander around and research sourceboxes. As for Mr. Jun …" She looked at Lu Yin. "He was one of the people who tried to assassinate you, so he can't stay."
Lu Yin's gaze turned cold. "Mr. Jun was one of the people who tried to assassinate me?"
Felynn nodded and raised her gadget. An image of Mr. Jun lockbreaking appeared on the screen. At first, he was very tired, and his speed was very slow. However, things changed when he took out his lockbreaking tool, and his speed increased. That lockbreaking tool was the same tool that the assassin who had fought against Lu Yin had possessed.
There were no identical sourceboxes, and lockbreaking tools were similar as well.
Lu Yin's eyes narrowed. It was actually him, Mr. Jun. This person had appeared on the Savage Ape Planet, and Lu Yin had envied his lockbreaking ability. He had never thought that he would be assassinated by this person.
"Once Saul is defeated, no one will be able to stop me from becoming president," Felynn said.
Lu Yin smiled. "If that's the case, then you should increase the stakes even more. I'll be the one to offend others, and you'll be the one to reap the benefits. The stakes aren't equal."
Felynn said, "Mr. Lu, you've been trying to establish the Great Eastern Alliance, right? I can promise that once I become president, I'll have the entire Lockbreaker Society publicly support the Great Eastern Alliance. At the same time, I'll also transfer a group of lower level Lockbreakers to the Great Eastern Alliance. How about that?"
"I want True Insight." Lu Yin did not plan on beating around the bush.
Felynn frowned. "No, True Insight must remain on Sourcepeak Planet."
Lu Yin stared at Felynn. "I'll say it again: I want True Insight. This isn't the first time we've worked together, and there will be many more opportunities for us to work together in the future. Your status is very high, but it's only limited to being a Lockbreaker, and you don't have any authority. I, on the other hand, have authority, and I'll expand the Great Eastern Alliance in the future.
We can work together. "" Mr. Lu, True Insight is only useful to Boundless Advanced Lockbreakers. It's useless for you to have it, and many people will even covet it. Why bother? "Felynn asked helplessly.
Lu Yin smiled. "It's not like I'll take it openly."
Felynn was stunned. "What do you mean?"
Lu Yin's lips curled up. "Deng Pu became the champion of the Lockbreaker Competition, so True Insight should belong to him. But if you succeed, then Saul and Deng Pu will both be finished. True Insight should return to the Lockbreaker Society, and as the president, won't it be easy for you to secretly hand it to me?"
"That's impossible. You want me to bear the greed of those who covet True Insight for you?
Impossible! "Felynn exclaimed.
Lu Yin shrugged. "I'll bear the wrath of a Boundless Advanced Lockbreaker for you, and you'll bear the greed of True Insight for me. It's very fair."
"We'll leave Saul on Sourcepeak Planet so that he won't be a threat to you," Felynn said solemnly.
Lu Yin's eyes flashed. "Alright. If Saul isn't a threat to me, then I'll only take one page of True Insight. But if he escapes Sourcepeak Planet, then I'll take three pages. That's fair, right?"
Felynn thought about it. "Alright, I'll agree."
Felynn was very confident that she could keep Saul here, which made Lu Yin feel apprehensive. Saul was a Boundless Advanced Lockbreaker, which was equivalent to an Enlighter. How difficult would it be to keep an Enlighter here? Felynn's confidence meant that someone was helping her, and it was definitely an Enlighter. This woman had other helpers.
If everything was as Felynn had said, then Lu Yin wouldn't have minded helping her. But since he was sure that she had other helpers, then things were different. He didn't want to be someone else's gunman, especially someone unknown.
Over the next ten minutes, Felynn explained the rules of the Lockbreaker Competition to Lu Yin. She didn't go into too much detail, as the rules could change every year. Usually, only the president and vice president knew the rules. If President Geoffrey wasn't around, then Saul could change the rules for this year's competition. This was also one of his methods to ensure Deng Pu's victory.
Deng Pu had to win. This wasn't just what Saul wanted, but also what Felynn wanted. Only with Deng Pu's victory would the evidence he had revealed be more effective, and Saul would be hated even more.
It could be said that Deng Pu was the winner of this year's Lockbreaker Competition.
Many people wanted the competition to be fair, but there was no such thing as absolute fairness in the universe. Everything would only develop in the direction of certain people's interests.
After leaving the lockbreaker room, Wei Xin 'er looked at Lu Yin curiously. "Hey, who did you find to be your mentor?"
Lu Yin smiled at Wei Xin 'er and then left after bidding farewell to Felynn.
"Hey, you still haven't answered me!" Wei Xin 'er shouted.
Felynn stopped Wei Xin 'er. "Have you decided on a mentor?
The Innerverse and Outerverse are separated, and the person you're looking for isn't here. "
Wei Xin 'er looked conflicted. "I don't know."
Felynn was amused. "If that's the case, then I'll be your mentor."
Wei Xin 'er was shocked and blinked. "You? My mentor?
Are you serious? "
For someone like her who had passed the assessment, it was impossible to find a Four Stars Perceptive Intermediate Lockbreaker like Felynn to be their mentor unless they were extremely talented. The mentor she had been looking for was only a One Star Perceptive Intermediate Lockbreaker.
Felynn smiled and nodded. "I like you very much. How about I be your mentor?"
"That's great! Thank you, Mentor Felynn!" Wei Xin 'er cheered, completely forgetting about Lu Yin.
Tong Mi 'er and Aden were waiting for Lu Yin outside. When Lu Yin came out, Tong Mi' er didn't ask anything. "My mentor told me to take you to a place to stay."
Lu Yin looked around and pointed at a hill in the distance. "Let's go there. You can only see further if you're high up."
Tong Mi 'er nodded. "Alright, please follow me."
When the sky darkened and the artificial star gradually extinguished, Sourcepeak Planet became much quieter. The long line of people waiting for the assessment quietly sat in place, waiting for the next day to continue.
Lu Yin sat on the roof and looked at Felynn's residence.
He was very curious about the person who had cooperated with Felynn to deal with Saul. If Felynn was so confident in dealing with Saul, then it had to be at least an Enlighter. There were too few Enlighters in the Outerverse at the moment, and any one of them could be a threat to Lu Yin.
He had chosen this location to make it easier to monitor, but he wasn't sure if those people would contact Felynn, so he was just trying his luck.
However, Lu Yin found that his luck was very good. After sitting on the roof for a few hours, he saw a streak of rune lines sneak into Felynn's residence under the cover of darkness, and Felynn met up with that person.
Lu Yin's eyes widened, and he stared closely.
Ten minutes later, the rune lines quietly left Felynn's residence and headed in a different direction.
Lu Yin immediately followed and stopped the person far away from Felynn's residence.
"Brother, what's the matter?" The person stopped by Lu Yin was a middle-aged man with a hoarse voice, and he stared at Lu Yin warily.
Lu Yin looked at him. "Who are you?
Who do you represent? "
The middle-aged man sneered. "Brother, I don't know what you're talking about."
Lu Yin walked closer. "What did you say to Felynn?
Who's the mastermind behind this? "
The middle-aged man's eyes flashed coldly, and he suddenly attacked. His five fingers curled and viciously pressed down on Lu Yin. It wasn't a palm or a fist, but star energy condensed into a strange shape that struck towards Lu Yin's head at an extremely fast speed. This person was a Cruiser. Lu Yin's eyes lit up, and he raised a hand to grab the middle-aged man's hand. He could feel the pressure on his palm, but fortunately, this person wasn't that strong, and his attack was instantly shattered.
