Chapter 1920: Follow Lu Yin

Brother Rong became furious, and he leaped out of the ground. “Who was it? Who dared to step on me?”

“I’m pretty sure that that was Xia Taili,” Brother Wei hesitantly replied.

Brother Rong was taken aback. “Xia Taili? The Xia family’s little princess?”

Brother Wei nodded.

Brother Rong felt helpless. There was absolutely nothing that he could do if Xia Taili had really stepped on him. He could only accept that he had been stepped on. After all, when it came to Xia Taili, even if he ignored her background, he was no match for her personal strength, and he really could do nothing about getting revenge.

“Brother Rong, look! Isn’t that Xia Shenfei, one of the four Junior Progenitors?” Brother Wei exclaimed.

Brother Rong quickly looked over, and he was far from the only one who looked up. Millions of others did the same thing as three people appeared overhead. They were Xia Shenfei, Wang Su, and Long Tian. Junior Progenitor Bai Shaohong had died, but the other three had been rescued, and they had all arrived.

“Rumors claim that Lu Xiaoxuan, under the alias of Long Qi, ruthlessly suppressed all four of the Junior Progenitors in the Dominion Realm. Not only did he kill Bai Shaohong, but he also stripped all four of them and stole a lot of treasures. He really is brutal,” someone commented.

“Yeah, even though I hate the Lu family, I have to admit that Lu Xiaoxuan was certainly powerful enough. Even the four Junior Progenitors were like little kids when facing him.”

“He was so young back then, but Lu Xiaoxuan was still much older than the Junior Progenitors. He was one of the Seven Heroes, who were from the same generation as the Celestial Frost Sect’s fairy, Bai Xian’er. I have no idea what happened for him to become like he is now.”

“For the four Junior Progenitors to show up here and now, they must want to get revenge.”

“By the way, who just said that those four got stripped? Does that mean that even Wang Su was stripped?”

“Shhh! You’re asking to die!”

In the sky above, there was a stern expression on Long Tian’s face. Xia Shenfei was swinging a gourd full of wine around while looking around for a place to land. As for Wang Su, she looked calm, and it was impossible to know what was on her mind.

A group of people appeared outside the mountain valley. They were led by Elder Luo Zhong, and there was also a large number of the Celestial Frost Sect’s disciples following him, including both Yu Chen and Liu Shaoge.

Liu Shaoge looked down at the valley. Were they about to go back? The war’s about to begin, Brother Lu, and we’ll meet each other once more.

Yu Chen’s eyes were terribly cold. After Bai Shaohong had died, her status within the Celestial Frost Sect had plummeted. Now, she was nothing more than a mere maid.

Further up, Bai Laogui met with Wang Si.

“At first, our Progenitor intended to make a move, but when that little bastard broke through to become an Envoy and caused space to overlap, we all saw that he was being supported by a Progenitor. So, our ancestor had no choice but to abandon that plan. Instead, we will conquer the Forsaken Land and force them to hand that little beast over. This is not some simple idle talk, so your Wang family needs to be ready to take action,” Bai Laogui said.

Wang Si’s eyes flickered with a cold light. “I want that bastard dead even more than you, but his death is not our only goal. A place called Burial Garden opened, and that place contains ancient inheritances. That place is also another goal.”

“I never expected the Forsaken Land to possess a bit of a background. Even inheritances of the legendary Ancient Progenitors showed up! Still, we need to crush that little bastard before all else.”

“Naturally.”

Elsewhere in the mountain valley, Wang Dashuai was surrounded by numerous guards and felt quite miserable.

He felt that his life was too pitiful, especially after he ran into Long Qi. It was almost as if he had fallen into a cesspit. It would have been much better for him if he had just stayed in the Yinshan District and bickered with Mo Gaohe. Ah, those times had been wonderful. Wang Dashuai missed Mo Gaohe…

Was the ancestors’ tomb perhaps dug up? Wang Dashuai had an evil thought that his Wang family’s tomb had been ransacked.

There was a slap as Wang Yun smacked Wang Dashuai on the head. “What are you looking at, traitor?”

Wang Dashuai pulled his head back, and he did not dare to say anything at all in reply. When had he even looked at her? What horseshit!

Wang Yun snorted and looked around the valley. “There are people from the Nong and Liu families here. Some of them have to be secretly helping that Lu Xiaoxuan. I have no idea if anyone from Specter Abyss has managed to sneak in either.”

“They must have,” Wang Su replied.

Wang Yun was startled to hear the response, and she excitedly turned to see Wang Su. “Sister Su!”

Wang Su nodded. “There are definitely people from the Nong family keeping an eye on things, but we can also use them to determine Lu Xiaoxuan’s whereabouts.”

She then glanced over at Wang Dashuai. “You also have a chance to redeem yourself here. You never helped Lu Xiaoxuan after he was exposed and everyone started to curse and condemn him. If you manage to accomplish something worthwhile, you can even earn your freedom back.”

Wang Dashuai became ecstatic at this news. “Really? Junior Progenitor Su, you don’t need to worry! I’ll definitely find that Long Qi!”

Wang Yun hated this fatty…

***

In the Neoverse, Lu Yin suddenly appeared at the bottom of a river.

He had spent nearly a year training in the Timestop Space, though only a single second had passed in the outside world.

Inverse Step was not an easy technique to train, and Lu Yin had no idea how long Progenitor Chen must have trained to reach such an impressive level of mastery. Lu Yin had not made much progress over the course of the last year, but he had at least surpassed Qian Zou.

Merely achieving the same level as Qian Zou would not make Inverse Step worthy of Lu Yin’s time and efforts. No, his goal was to recreate the chaotic time and space in his surroundings, just as Progenitor Chen’s clone had done. Lu Yin’s Knowing realm of Truesight had been bypassed with Inverse Step while Progenitor Chen had merely been an Enlighter.

He needed to keep going. Lu Yin looked up and raised a hand. His die slowly stopped spinning, and it landed six pips.

His eyes lit up. He had not removed his cosmic ring and set it aside before rolling his die this time as he had no qualms about rolling Possession.

He entered that strange, dark space filled with the numerous glowing balls at varying levels of brightness. He immediately chose the brightest orb and merged with it.

He opened his eyes. Where was he? In the Astral River on the ark?

“This Astral River is quite impressive. It doesn’t even fall behind the middle ocean,” an emotional voice commented.

Lu Yin was stunned. The Middle Ocean? He turned and looked into a familiar face. Sister Fei Hua? I actually Possessed Liu Ye!ｆ𝗿𝗲𝒆we𝚋ｎ૦𝘃𝚎𝒍. 𝒄o𝚖

“What’s wrong?” Sister Fei Hua stretched out a hand to gently caress “Liu Ye’s” face.

“Liu Ye” twitched when he saw the affectionate look on Fei Hua’s face, and it took Lu Yin a moment to accept what he was looking at. Was this woman really the fierce Fei Hua that he had once known?

“It’s nothing. I’m just a bit tired,” “Liu Ye” replied.

Fei Hua agreed. “It was indeed quite exhausting to fight against that massive praying mantis a bit ago, but we didn’t have any choice. We have to follow the conditions that we agreed to before leaving Mt. Microcosms, or else we would have never been allowed to go free. I just never expected the Great Eastern Alliance to actually endure. I still find it hard to believe that they managed to push the Astral Beast Domain’s invasion back.”

“Liu Ye” said nothing as Lu Yin was currently processing a flood of memories, all of which belonged to Liu Ye. Lu Yin caught some glimpses of what Liu Ye had experienced throughout his life, experienced the man’s feelings, and even gained some insight into the man’s relationship with Fei Hua. Lu Yin instantly grew uncomfortable. There were some memories that were very unsuitable for any outsiders to see.

Hurry up! Lu Yin did not want Fei Hua to get bored or impatient with his lack of response.

“Honestly, I feel like Lu Yin’s rather impressive. What do you think?” “Liu Ye” asked Fei Hua.

The woman was taken aback for a moment, and she replied, “Him? Rather impressive?”

“Liu Ye” became very serious as he explained, “Even if you look everywhere in this place, or even across the entire universe, who else is as talented and impressive? Who else has a bright a future? You also saw how dozens of Envoys appeared on the Astral Beast Domain’s side when they tried to invade the Outerverse, but despite having several monsters with power levels of over a million, they were still repelled by the Great Eastern Alliance that Lu Yin leads. Honestly, there’s no one who can compare to the youth even from where we’re from.

“The four Junior Progenitors each relied on the powers behind them to reach their level of strength, but Lu Yin rose up to surpass them despite starting on an ordinary planet and only cultivating for a few decades. Even I can’t help but have some respect for him.”

Fei Hua gave Liu Ye an odd look and could not help herself from reaching out and pressing a hand to her partner’s forehead. “Are you sure that you’re feeling alright? That kid’s sneaky and manipulative, not to mention Kui Luo’s heir. How much has that old man done to us? It’s not easy to get rid of that kid, but you’re not saying that you want to continue relying on him, are you?”

“Liu Ye” set a hand on Fei Hua’s shoulder and somberly replied, “It’s better to follow someone who has a bright future. Huahua, we both know that we can’t go back, and our only way forward in this Fifth Mainland is by following Lu Yin. Otherwise, our only option will be to constantly be watched by that Hall of Honor, and any mistakes that we make will incur consequences countless times more severe than they should be.”

“Why must we follow him? Given our strength, we can definitely live in hiding. No one would be able to disturb us.” Fei Hua was very unhappy with the direction of this conversation, and she felt that Liu Ye’s behavior was very unusual, and he was also looking at her oddly.

“Liu Ye” frowned. Was there something wrong with what he had said?

“Regardless, I’ve decided to follow Lu Yin. Only by doing so can we return to the Perennial World. Don’t you want to go back home?”

“I do, but no matter how powerful he becomes, he will never have the courage to go near the Perennial World again. The four ruling powers will absolutely kill him, which means that it’s impossible for us to ever return.”

“Alright, that’s enough! I’ve already made the decision!” “Liu Ye” shouted as he shot a fierce stare at Fei Hua. Suddenly, Lu Yin lost consciousness and then returned to the strange, dark space for a moment before returning to his own body.

Lu Yin opened his eyes and blew out a long breath. How much weight would the words that he had spoken from Liu Ye’s mouth be? He won’t get his ass kicked by Sister Fei Hua, will he? Eh, it doesn’t matter. It’s got nothing to do with me, and I can also count this as a win for Liu Ye.

From the memories that Lu Yin had seen, Liu Ye normally followed Fei Hua’s desires in most matters.

However, the memories that Lu Yin had accessed had also given him information about one place that he was quite concerned about: Specter Abyss.

Specter Abyss was the Perennial World’s equivalent of the Specter clan. Their exact location was a secret in the Perennial World, and only some of the most powerful groups were aware of that information. Most cultivators were not qualified to know where Specter Abyss lay hidden.

However, Liu Ye and Fei Hua had been to Specter Abyss and even escaped from there.

Lu Yin raised his hand and brought his die back out. He put the previous matter out of mind as he needed to continue his own training. He tapped the die, and it slowly stopped. Six pips.

Lu Yin was stunned. Back-to-back Possessions? That almost never happened!

His consciousness returned to the dark space, and he did not hesitate at all to choose the closest and brightest orb that he could see. When his vision cleared, he found himself next to a pond.

This place looked rather familiar… Wait, isn’t this the pond in the Sword Sect?

Memories poured into Lu Yin’s mind, and he was left speechless when he realized that he had Possessed Liu Qianjue.

However, after a moment’s thought, Lu Yin realized that Liu Qianjue had a very similar power level to Liu Ye and Fei Hua. Given Lu Yin’s increase in strength from his recent breakthrough, these powerhouses really were the most suited targets for his Possession ability.

The fishing rod in his hands twitched, and “Liu Qianjue” instinctively reeled in what had been caught. He ended up pulling in a strange, green-eyed creature that resembled a frog that was very aggressive.

“Sect Master, our sect’s reputation has increased greatly after joining the Great Eastern Alliance. While many of our disciples died during the Outerverse war, many others have experienced breakthroughs. Even Elder Lianxin is seeing signs of a breakthrough, and she reports that she will likely face her second stellular tribulation soon.” Elder Li stood behind Liu Qianjue as he respectfully delivered a report on the Sword Sect’s affairs.

“Liu Qianjue” replied, “A battlefield where people risk their lives is the best place to rapidly advance one’s strength and comprehension. There’s nothing wrong with acknowledging our place within the Great Eastern Alliance.”

Elder Li was taken aback at this response, and he gazed at Liu Qianjue’s back in confusion. Hasn’t Sect Master always held a grudge against the Great Eastern Alliance? Why is he saying that it’s not bad to recognize our position?
