Angie's gaze became blurry as she was attracted to Wei Rong. This man had an indescribable charm, and the two gradually drew closer to each other.
Behind Angie, Ah Mu shouted, "Let go!" He was about to attack.
Wei Rong's men immediately stopped him.
Angie sobered up, and her face turned red. She glared at Wei Rong. "You're going too far."
Wei Rong laughed. "Miss Angie, has anyone ever pursued you?"
Angie pursed her lips and nodded. "Of course."
"What's the most romantic thing those people have done for you?" Wei Rong asked loudly, and his voice was loud enough for many to hear.
Angie's face turned red, and she stared at Wei Rong. "What are you trying to say?"
Wei Rong pointed at the Hall of Insight. "The most romantic thing I can think of is to help you topple the Outerverse Lockbreaker Society that has been suppressing us for countless years. Aside from me, Wei Rong, who else can do such a thing?"
Angie's eyes turned red, and her gaze towards Wei Rong was filled with adoration and admiration.
This was the best of times, but it was also the worst of times. Only villains could be ahead of the times, and Wei Rong was such a villain. During the battle on Sourcepeak Planet, seizing the Lockbreaker Society's resources that had been accumulated over countless years was not his main goal. Instead, he wanted to start the worst of times, the beginning of the Outerverse's backlash against the Innerverse.
Within the Hall of Insight, the two star Perceptive Intermediate Lockbreaker had slaughtered many people, and blood had formed a river beneath his feet. Even so, the other areas of the Hall of Insight were still filled with battles, and corpses of Lockbreakers could be seen on the ground from time to time. This day was a day of sorrow for the Lockbreakers.
"I don't care who you are.
Wherever you came from, you must pay the price for your evil deeds today! "the Perceptive Intermediate Lockbreaker bellowed. His voice was already hoarse, and because of the intense battle, his muscles were twitching, and his reactions were gradually slowing down.
In front of him, an intense light flickered, and even a Perceptive Intermediate Lockbreaker with the strength of a Hunter could not avoid it. Suddenly, the Perceptive Intermediate Lockbreaker felt a chill run down his spine. Someone had attacked him, and he had subconsciously stolen star energy to disintegrate his opponent's battle technique. The process had gone smoothly, but the coldness in his abdomen had made him feel as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.
He slowly lowered his head, and two swords emerged from his body. Behind him were two black shadows that were linked together. The attack was soundless, and it was unknown where it had come from. This attack had evaded a Perceptive Intermediate Lockbreaker's star energy perception, and even a lockbreaking tool would not be able to detect it. This was a perfect sneak attack.
The Perceptive Intermediate Lockbreaker looked behind him in disbelief as he felt the sword qi invade his body. His meridians had been severed, and his heart had been torn apart. His eyes flickered. "I remember now. You're Gemini Ghost."
With a whoosh, the Perceptive Intermediate Lockbreaker was sliced apart by the sword qi, and fresh blood splattered across the ground.
The Ghost Shadow Sword Sect's Gemini Ghosts had been conjoined since birth, and they had cultivated the Dual Heart Ghost Sword, which no one in the Ghost Shadow Sword Sect had ever successfully cultivated. They were able to multitask, and regardless of whether or not they had star energy, it did not affect their ability to use the Dual Heart Ghost Sword.
Just like the Perceptive Intermediate Lockbreaker, Gemini Ghost was also a Hunter, and all of their previous sacrifices had been used to create an opportunity for this attack.
If it had been a normal Hunter or even a peak Hunter, Gemini Ghost would not have needed to expend so much effort, but Lockbreakers were different. A Perceptive Intermediate Lockbreaker was more than enough to discover the traces of the Dual Heart Ghost Sword.
The only Perceptive Intermediate Lockbreaker had died, and Gemini Ghost had gone on a killing spree, staining the Hall of Insight with blood.
In the distance, near the altar, Xi Qi found Lu Yin, and the two stared at each other.
"Do you need something?" Lu Yin asked.
Xi Qi looked at Lu Yin. "Who are you?"
Lu Yin was speechless. "If you don't know who I am, then why are you looking for me?"
Xi Qi apologetically replied, "The fish said that you're an acquaintance."
"Hey, familiar two-legged beast. Do you want to be Lord Fish's mount? There are benefits for you," the fish spoke.
"Bro, is it dangerous? Let's go together?" Ku Wei seemed to have lost his mind as he approached Lu Yin.
When he saw Ku Wei, the fish became angry. "You insolent two-legged beast, make your ancestors crawl out of their graves and pay respects to Lord Fish."
Ku Wei rolled his eyes. "Go by yourself. I can send you there, and I'll add some cumin while I'm at it."
"Impudent, two-legged beast! You're just a mount."
"I'll ride you, fish."
"You're infuriating Lord Fish. Familiar two-legged beast, beat him up, and Lord Fish will teach you True Insight."
…
Lu Yin pursed his lips and gave Aden a look. He then walked to the side and turned on his gadget, only to discover that the signal had been blocked. He immediately used his Honor Points to contact Wang Wen, as no one could block the Hall of Honor's signal. In an important place like Sourcepeak Planet, the Hall of Honor would definitely have a secret signal.
Sure enough, the call connected, and Wang Wen's voice sounded. "How is it?"
Lu Yin explained the situation, including how Fiend Li had stalled Saul, the battle between Mr. Jun and Felynn, and the huge battle that was taking place in the distant Hall of Insight.
"Hall of Insight?
Could that be Wei Rong's goal? "Wang Wen was puzzled, as even with his intelligence, he could not immediately see through Wei Rong's plans.
Lu Yin frowned. "The Lockbreaker Society has collected treasures over countless years, so that's a plausible goal."
"Impossible. You mortals can't understand the thoughts of smart people like us. If Wei Rong was so shallow, then he wouldn't be worthy of my attention," Wang Wen said.
Lu Yin realized that many of the people around him were speaking rather infuriatingly, but there was nothing he could do about it.
"What does a smart person like you think I should do now?" Lu Yin grumbled.
Wang Wen pondered for a moment. "Have you heard of the Law of Timely Advantage?"
"No."
"The so-called Law of Timely Advantage refers to taking into account the current situation and your status to do what is most beneficial to you. You only need to do one thing right now, and that is to expose your identity and use your status as the future leader of the Great Eastern Alliance, a member of the Hall of Honor, and a five star Discerning Elementary Lockbreaker to lead the other Lockbreakers to defend the Hall of Insight. It's for nothing else but your reputation."
"Will it work?" Lu Yin asked.
Wang Wen replied, "Whether or not it works, you must do it. Or you can hide your identity and go to the Hall of Insight to seize resources. Your choice."
Lu Yin did not hesitate. Resources could be obtained at any time, but reputation was different. His vision could not be limited to the eastern weaves, and if he wanted to advance further, the support of the Lockbreakers would be unavoidable. The reason why he did not want to stand out like Felynn was because he did not want to offend the Lockbreaker Society. On the other hand, if the Lockbreaker Society supported him, then the benefits he would receive would be immense.
He would not give up his reputation for the sake of resources.
"I'll keep you updated, so don't hang up," Lu Yin said. Then, under Ku Wei and Xi Qi's gazes, he changed his appearance and leapt up. His loud voice echoed throughout Sourcepeak Planet. "My name is Lu Yin. All Lockbreakers, listen up. The Hall of Insight is in danger. Everyone, please protect the Hall of Insight with me and protect the Lockbreaker Society's foundation."
"My name is Lu Yin. All Lockbreakers, listen up. The Hall of Insight is in danger. Everyone, please protect the Hall of Insight with me and protect the Lockbreaker Society's foundation."
"My name is Lu Yin. All Lockbreakers, listen up. The Hall of Insight is in danger. Everyone, please protect the Hall of Insight with me and protect the Lockbreaker Society's foundation."
…
Lu Yin's voice echoed throughout Sourcepeak Planet, causing countless people to be shocked.
Felynn's face turned ugly, as Lu Yin had only made a move now, and against one of her own. This Lu Yin was truly hateful.
Mr. Jun's expression changed. Lu Yin had actually come? When had he come?
In the distance, Wei Rong's brows rose. Lu Yin?
This was troublesome, as this person was still standing on the opposing side. Fortunately, the moment that Lu Yin had appeared on Sourcepeak Planet, they had already made preparations. Wei Rong was not as brainless as Felynn, and this Lu Yin was not an ordinary person.
Angie frowned, as she had some understanding of Lu Yin. Back in the Astral Combat Academy, this person had been audacious enough to ban the Daynight clan, but nothing had happened in the end. He was a lawless yet intelligent person, and the fact that he had made a move at this time proved that he had a certain level of confidence. She subconsciously looked at Wei Rong, and when she saw his confident expression, her heart calmed down. As long as Wei Rong was here, Lu Yin would not be a problem.
Behind Angie, Ah Mu had a complicated expression. Seventh Bro had still made a move.
"So it's Brother Lu! That's great!" Xi Qi was delighted.
The fish looked at her with disdain. "You only know how to count on others. This mount of yours is too unreliable."
Ku Wei looked at Lu Yin in astonishment. This person was the Royal Regent of Frostwave Weave's Great Yu Empire. Ku Wei had been ordered to infiltrate Frostwave Weave in order to verify whether or not the Yushan bloodline was part of the Yu family. He had met this person before, but before the Innerverse and Outerverse had been separated, the clan's elders had said that the Yushan bloodline was not part of the Yu family, which had led Ku Wei to abandon Frostwave Weave and travel the universe. However, this person had clearly used the Yu Secret Art.
Was the clan's elder's information wrong, or was there some other reason?
The Yushan bloodline was definitely part of the Yu family.
It was unknown whether Lu Yin was lucky or not, but as soon as he spoke, Fiend Li's voice rang out in the sky, ordering many Lockbreakers to guard the Hall of Insight.
Originally, with Lu Yin's reputation, he would only be able to summon a few Lockbreakers. He had not expected to be able to summon many and had only wanted to increase his reputation. However, Fiend Li's words had caused many Lockbreakers to subconsciously treat Lu Yin as the representative of the society's upper echelons. Immediately, a group of Lockbreakers gathered at the Hall of Insight. Even Lockbreakers at the level of Straight Metallic Man and Serpent Queen's levels headed to the Hall of Insight after dealing with their opponents.
Lu Yin flew towards the Hall of Insight with Ku Wei and Xi Qi following behind him.
Although there was a great distance between the altar and the Hall of Insight, it was only a matter of the blink of an eye for Lu Yin and the others.
The battle within the Hall of Insight was extremely bitter, and there were severed limbs everywhere. When Lu Yin led many Lockbreakers to the Hall of Insight, they were greeted by a powerful light and the bombardment of countless technological weapons.
In the skies above Sourcepeak Planet, Fiend Li and Saul's battle had reached its final juncture. Fiend Li was gradually unable to hold on any longer, especially when he had been distracted by sending Lockbreakers to reinforce the Hall of Insight. Saul had seized the opportunity to launch a sneak attack on Fiend Li, and there was blood at the corner of Fiend Li's mouth. His movements had involuntarily slowed down by half a beat. Saul was already stronger than Fiend Li to begin with, and as a result, Fiend Li was finally struck down by Saul.
Saul pressed down with one hand, and the entire Sourcepeak Planet's star energy could be seen gathering at a speed visible to the naked eye. It formed a storm that swept across the entire planet and swept across the altar. Saul's control over star energy was fully displayed, and the Lockbreakers on his side were completely unharmed. On the contrary, the other Lockbreakers were swept away by the star energy and were all heavily injured. Felynn was the most heavily injured, and she had almost been crushed by the star energy.
