Managing cultivators was difficult, and Lu Yin was not good at it. After some thought, he sent a message to Wang Wen, telling him that he would leave such matters to him in the future. His actions over the past two days were more like venting.
Wang Wen smiled when he received Lu Yin's message. Although his methods were crude, he could see Lu Yin's determination to treat the commoners well. Only by curbing cultivators would the commoners be able to live a better life. It was good that Lu Yin had such determination.
Everyone thought that Lu Yin was ruthless and liked to start wars, but he also treated the commoners well and guarded the borders. His bottom line was higher than many people's, which was why Wang Wen admired him and was willing to rely on him.
Even Lu Yin himself did not know why he was so angry, but Wang Wen could tell that it was because those independent cultivators and merchants had caused even more bloodshed in the war, which had touched Lu Yin's bottom line!
Wang Wen looked up at the sky. He did not care about the consequences of following Lu Yin. How far they could go would depend on the will of the heavens, and how history would record them would depend on their merits and demerits!
No one had ever unified the Outerverse, and Wang Wen saw hope in Lu Yin. He looked forward to the future of history.
Right, I almost forgot something. Wang Wen immediately sent Lu Yin a message.
Lu Yin's eyes widened when he saw Wang Wen's message. There was such a thing?
He did not hesitate to contact Elder Nuoha.
Lu Yin could not contact the elder through his gadget, but he did not believe it and continued.
After almost an hour, Elder Nuoha finally picked up and sounded exhausted. "Alliance Master Lu, what's the matter?"
Lu Yin suppressed his laughter and coughed. "Elder, I heard that something strange has appeared in Ironblood Weave."
Elder Nuoha's tone immediately turned sour. "Wang Wen told you, right?"
Lu Yin asked, "Is there really something strange?
I heard that you, Elder, suffered a loss. Is that true? "
Elder Nuoha sighed. "That's right. I was unlucky and was stepped on."
Lu Yin was shocked. "Stepped on by what?"
Elder Nuoha was silent for a moment. "Alliance Master Lu, I can tell you, but please don't tell anyone else."
Lu Yin nodded. "Okay."
Elder Nuoha coughed and pondered for a moment. "Rabbit."
Lu Yin was stunned. "What?"
"A rabbit! It's a rabbit that's flashing with lightning. I was stomped on by that thing, and I can't even catch up to it!" Elder Nuoha grumbled. He thought that Lu Yin would burst into laughter, but Lu Yin did not. Instead, his expression turned serious. Rabbit, rabbit, it should be that one!
Back on the Savage Ape Planet, after Lu Yin had successfully unlocked the seal, the nine-headed ape had appeared and wanted to destroy everyone. It had been a rabbit that had appeared and stomped on the ape, which had caused the Enlighter to be stunned. Lu Yin had also used his die to absorb a trace of the innate gift of thunder, which had allowed him to eliminate the Hunter who had been chasing after him.
That rabbit had left a deep impression on Lu Yin.
To be able to stun the Nine-Headed Ferocious Ape with a single stomp, its strength was simply unfathomable. Who would have thought that after so many years, that rabbit would appear again and even stomp on Elder Nuohua's foot? This fellow really could stomp on anything.
"Alliance Master Lu, you don't seem surprised," Elder Nuohua asked.
Lu Yin replied, "This junior has seen that rabbit before." He then recounted what had happened back on the Savage Ape Planet.
Elder Nuohua replied, "That rabbit stomped on my foot, and I didn't have time to react. It's normal for it to stun the ape with a single stomp. I'm only telling you this so that you can be on your guard. After all, a third of the Outerverse is under your control. If this rabbit doesn't leave, then it might appear again."
Lu Yin grunted. "Elder, do you think that this rabbit came from the Astral Beast Domain?"
Elder Nuohua replied, "It doesn't seem like it. It seems to have appeared out of thin air."
Lu Yin also felt that it had appeared out of thin air. If it had come from the Astral Beast Domain, then it would not have done something so nonsensical.
"This rabbit's most powerful ability is actually its lightning. Its lightning has undergone a transformation and contains an indescribable power. Forget it, let's not talk about it. Is there anything else, Alliance Master Lu?" Elder Nuohua asked, clearly in a bad mood.
Lu Yin exchanged a few polite words, and the two ended the call.
Actually, Lu Yin wanted to meet that rabbit again, and it would be best if he could use his die to borrow its lightning innate gift. Even Elder Nuohua had praised it, so its lightning was probably very powerful. It could deal with powerhouses with power levels of 300,000 at the very least.
Elder Nuohua's being stomped on by the rabbit could only be considered an anecdote, so Lu Yin did not dwell on it.
On the other side, Wei Rong contacted Zi Xianxian.
Wei Rong, En Ya, and Wang Wen were Lu Yin's military advisors for expanding his territory. He would inform the three of them whenever he had someone he could use so that they could make use of him.
And now, Wei Rong's attention was on Zi Fang.
Lu Yin's promise to Zi Fang that he would ensure that he would become the family head was not enticing, as Zi Fang was the only direct descendant of the Zi family. He would definitely become the family head in the future, so he did not care about Lu Yin's promise at all.
However, Lu Yin needed top-secret information on the Amethyst Trading Company, so he could only leave this matter to Wei Rong since he was an expert in scheming.
Wei Rong did not disappoint Lu Yin, and his first thought was to contact Zi Xianxian.
Wei Rong had never interacted with Zi Xianxian before, so she did not know that it was Wei Rong who had contacted her.
"Who is this?" Zi Xianxian was leisurely sitting in a courtyard and enjoying the sun.
"I'm Wei Rong."
Zi Xianxian frowned. "Wei Rong?
Why are you looking for me? "
"Does Miss Xianxian have any thoughts on becoming the family head of the Zi family?" Wei Rong asked.
Zi Xianxian's gaze turned cold. "What do you mean?"
"Nothing. It's just that our Alliance Head feels that his relationship with Miss Xianxian is pretty good. If Miss Xianxian becomes the family head in the future, then it will be beneficial for him as well, so he wants me to ask," Wei Rong said.
Zi Xianxian's tone was unpleasant. "Tell your Alliance Head that he doesn't need to worry about the Zi family's matters. He's already a shareholder of the Amethyst Trading Company, and he can inspect all information on the trading company. There's no need for him to do such a despicable thing." She then hung up.
She was very dissatisfied with Lu Yin. Even though Lu Yin had resolved the Zi family's crisis, it was only because the Zi family had paid a price for it. She did not want to be involved with Lu Yin at the moment.
Wei Rong was satisfied and ended the call. Zi Xianxian's reaction was within his expectations, and this was enough. He did not really want to support Zi Xianxian.
Within a courtyard on Planet Tianmao, Zi Fang looked at his gadget and was shocked. His vigilance towards Zi Xianxian had not dissipated at all. Someone had just sent him information that the Great Eastern Alliance's Lu Yin had the intention of supporting Zi Xianxian to become the family head. This was something that he had not expected.
The Zi family was no longer one of the four major corporations. Even though Lu Yin had resolved the crisis, it was unavoidable that Lu Yin would be involved in the struggle to become the family head.
It would be fine if Lu Yin did not interfere, but once he did, it was uncertain whether the position of family head would land in his hands. Back on Zenyu Star, Zi Xianxian had not only given Lu Yin shares of the Amethyst Trading Company's Zenyu Star branch, but she had also helped him obtain quite a few pieces of information. It was not surprising that Lu Yin would support her.
Zi Fang panicked, as he could not lose the position of family head.
Suddenly, he recalled what Lu Yin had told him. As long as he could find the top-secret information that the Amethyst Trading Company had been searching for, Lu Yin would guarantee that he would become the family head.
Zi Fang had not cared at first, but now he had to think of a way. Otherwise, if Lu Yin really supported Zi Xianxian, he would be finished. Even if this was an internal matter of the Zi family, Zi Fang had experienced Lu Yin's methods before. He could interfere whenever he wanted.
Zi Fang was a very stubborn person. For the sake of becoming the family head, he could easily make things difficult for Zi Xianxian and draw a clear line between himself and Zi Rong. This proved that he was stubborn, and a stubborn person could do anything.
In order to obtain Lu Yin's support, Zi Fang decided to sneak a peek into Zi Tianchuan's secret room. That was where the Zi family's most confidential information was stored, and only the family head had the right to see it.
Zi Tianchuan's security of the secret room was extremely tight, and Mister Yi was not far from it.
Fortunately, too many things had happened in the Zi family recently, and the security of the secret room had been lax. Otherwise, Zi Fang definitely would not have been able to get close.
Inside the secret room, Zi Fang was excited as he looked at the top-secret information recorded on the scroll. He did not dare record it and quickly left.
As soon as he returned to his residence, Zi Fang could not wait to contact Lu Yin.
"Alliance Master Lu, does your previous promise still count?" Zi Fang asked nervously.
On the other end of the call, Lu Yin calmly asked, "What promise?"
Zi Fang hurriedly replied, "You said that as long as I helped you investigate the Zi family's top-secret information, you would support me in becoming the family head."
Lu Yin smiled. "It does. Have you investigated it?"
"I have. The Zi family is supported by the Home of the Gods in the Neoverse, and they're developing information in the Outerverse. They're not a corporation, and even the investigation of all sorts of information is just a cover-up. The Home of the Gods wants the Zi family to investigate a ruin called Rune Technology."
Lu Yin suddenly stood up. "Rune Technology?"
"Yes, it's a certain ancient civilization. I don't know the specifics, and there are no records of it in history, but it does seem to have existed for a short time. There are very few Rune Technology ruins in the universe, and the Home of the Gods has asked our Zi family to investigate for countless years. Even now, we've only found four."
"Where are these four ruins?" Lu Yin hurriedly asked.
Zi Fang replied, "Is Alliance Master Lu interested?
That's a pity. According to the records, these four ruins were directly moved to the Neoverse by the Home of the Gods, and they're no longer in the Outerverse. "
Lu Yin was disappointed, as he also had a fervent desire for the ruins of Rune Technology.
Rune Technology was a short-lived civilization founded by the Rune Progenitor. Although it was short-lived, it was extremely brilliant, and not even history dared to record it.
Progenitor Chen's achievements were unparalleled, and his martial power was monstrous. The Sixth Mainland trembled at the mention of his name, and he had created the Nine Clones Technique. He was invincible in the universe, and he could split into nine equal to nine Progenitors. He was an existence that the Sixth Mainland's history dared not record.
However, the Rune Progenitor's existence was something that many people in the Sixth Mainland had never even heard of. He was an existence that did not even exist in oral legends.
The Rune Progenitor had founded a civilization that was difficult to comprehend. Even the slightest bit of knowledge was like a secret technique, which was the most terrifying thing about it.
In the Innerverse, Lu Yin's True Scripture of Eon Flow had reached the Spiritual Realm, and he hoped to advance further.
He might not be the only one in the universe who had obtained the inheritance of Rune Technology. The Home of the Gods was also searching for the ruins of Rune Technology, which meant that they might have also obtained the inheritance, and there might even be people who had learned the True Scripture of Eon Flow.
