Chapter 2035

Lu Yin could not care less about Wang Si\'s response, and he casually replied, "That\'s your concern. Regardless, I want the Second Nightking to help me take care of a certain task. You can negotiate the details of the deal with Bai Laogui."

Wang Si gritted her teeth and growled, "Since ancient times, there has never once been a junior who dared speak to an elder in this manner! Even back when you were Lu Xiaoxuan, you needed to show respect to me!"

"Cut the bullshit. It’s your decision whether you agree to the deal or not. Still, Wang Su is very beautiful. I\'ve been considering whether I should have a kid with her. My Lu family\'s bloodline needs an heir. Don\'t worry, though, I’ll take responsibility for her. I heard that my dad did the same thing before," Lu Yin casually replied.

Kui Luo grinned. This kid really had a talent for these things.

Wang Si\'s eyes turned bloodshot, and her voice dropped low and grew hoarse. "The entire Lu family is the worst bunch of animals! Fine, I\'ll make a deal with you, but you better let Wang Su and Wang Yi go after this, or I’ll do whatever it takes to kill you."

The old woman then turned around and made her way towards Bai Laogui.

Kui Luo approached Lu Yin. There was an odd look on the old man’s face. "Kid, do you really want to settle down with Wang Su?"

Lu Yin rolled his eyes. "Of course not! I already have a wife. I\'m just scaring her—I’m not that messed up."

"Sure enough, you’re the same as your father," Kui Luo remarked, though Lu Yin could not tell if this was a compliment or an insult coming from the old man.

Lu Yin smiled. "What does it matter what sort of tricks I use to deal with a mortal enemy like Wang Si? No trick is too dirty, though I still have some lines that I won’t cross. I know what I should and shouldn’t do."

Across the way, Bai Laogui was looking over at Lu Yin with clear doubts in his eyes as Wang Si spoke.

Regardless of what Wang Si did, Lu Yin was taking the short end of this deal. As far as Bai Laogui was concerned, while it was true that the Second Nightking was quite powerful, he was still just a slave. The Wang family had plenty of means to use to convince Bai Laogui to agree to this deal.

Before long, Wang Si returned along with Bai Laogui.

"What task do you want to give the Second Nightking?" Bai Laogui asked.

Lu Yin replied, "That’s none of your business."

"You!"

Bai Laogui instantly became upset, but Wang Si let out a cold snort. "Old man, we already made an agreement."

Biao Laogui dismissively waved a hand and called out, "Second Nightking! Come here!"

The Second Nightking was standing some distance away, watching everything that happened. When he heard Bai Laogui call him over, the Second Nightking’s heart sank. Once again, Lu Yin was dragging the old man in.

The Second Nightking had been the one to give the Perennial World’s forces information about Lu Yin, and with Lu Yin targeting him yet again, the Second Nightking knew that Lu Yin would never let him go.

The Second Nightking knew Lu Yin, and the youth would never allow a traitor to escape.

After Lu Yin’s identity had been revealed, he had taken control of the Second Nightking with the Sealed Cage Technique, but later on, the technique had failed with Bai Laogui taking control of the Second Nightking.

Given Bai Laogui\'s strength, he had been able to easily overwhelm Lu Yin’s Sealed Cage Technique. After all, the Bai family had developed the technique to begin with, and it was far more suitable to them than anyone else.

It was also due to Bai Laogui’s control over the Second Nightking and his information that the Perennial World’s forces had been able to find Lu Yin and Earth.

It was not entirely accurate to say that the Second Nightking had betrayed Lu Yin, as no one wanted to die.

"Let\'s discuss the mission now," Bai Laogui told Lu Yin when he saw the Second Nightking approaching.

The Second Nightking nervously stared at Lu Yin. Although the ancient powerhouse was incredibly strong, he had suffered miserably ever since he had left the Celestial Frost Sect’s ruins. He was even being sent back to Lu Yin now, which made the Second Nightking feel as though he had lost all of his prestige.

The more one knew Lu Yin, the more terrifying it was to be targeted by the young man. Lu Yin might only be an Envoy, but he was involved in many matters that far surpassed what he was qualified to partake in if he were judged based solely on strength.

Lu Yin looked into the worried and nervous eyes of the Second Nightking and was amused by what he saw. "Don\'t worry, this task isn’t a death sentence."

As Lu Yin spoke, he lifted a hand and brought out a wireless jincan. “You already know how this works, so take it to Arch-Elder Zen. That\'s the job."

The Second Nightking\'s eyes widened. "You want me to go to the Neoverse?"

Lu Yin nodded and tossed the jincan over to the Second Nightking. "Easy, right?"

The Second Nightking was no fool, and he naturally considered all the possibilities that had occurred to Wen Zizai before.

Staying with the Perennial World’s forces meant that there was only one future for the Second Nightking: return to the Perennial World and become a slave to the Bai family in the Celestial Frost Sect forever. Still, that was a better outcome than waiting for death. Leaving might mean running into Aeternus’s forces the moment the Second Nightking started moving.

Without being able to recover his stellular energy, the old man would definitely die after leaving the stronghold at Earth.

He could not help but glance over at Bai Laogui.

The Semi-Progenitor just frowned before turning around and leaving. He clearly agreed to sending the Second Nightking on this task.

"Why are you hesitating? Isn\'t it better to fight for your freedom than to follow them back to the Celestial Frost Sect to be a slave to the Bai family? After you get to the Neoverse, Bai Laogui will head to the Perennial World, and he won’t be able to control you any longer," Lu Yin encouraged.

The Second Nightking had no choice in the matter. "I understand."

"Senior, I\'m sorry for inconveniencing you," Lu Yin turned to Highsage Grandmaster.

The Semi-Progenitor just nodded before leaving for the sourcebox array with the Second Nightking in tow.

Wang Si remained where she was and glared at Lu Yin.

Lu Yin pulled out Zenith Mountain and immediately released Wang Su and Wang Yi.

The two were left in a bit of a daze after they appeared.

"Get over here! You’re acting disgracefully!" Wang Si shouted angrily.

The two quickly started moving and stood behind Wang Si before looking up and seeing Lu Yin.

Wang Yi\'s eyes revealed a strong reluctance. He was typically a rather indifferent person, and his reaction indicated just how much of an impact his captivity had had on him.

Wang Su stared at Lu Yin intensely for a moment, as though etching his image into her heart.

Wang Si had nothing further to say to Lu Yin, so she led the two juniors away.

"What a pity." Lu Yin felt rather disappointed. "I had to release such valuable hostages just for that. I really don’t know if this trade was worth it or not."

"Whether it was worth it or not, you still let them go," Kui Luo said as he carefully observed Lu Yin. “Sometimes you really let your mouth run off.”

Lu Yin pursed his lips. "I messed up, though. I had no idea she was absolutely nuts."

"That’s a talent in and of itself," Kui Luo commented with a smile, "Unconsciously asking for a beating is the way of a king."

Lu Yin did not want to discuss the matter with Kui Luo, as Lu Yin always felt like he was being corrupted by the old man. "I forgot to tell you about something—I ran into someone who is almost perfectly suited to be your disciple."

Kui Luo quickly straightened himself and waved a hand. "I’m an old man who’s used to being alone. I don\'t need some disciple, and besides, no one qualifies."

Lu Yin responded casually, "I think that that person would be good. He inherited a secret technique called ‘Man Of My Word.’ It causes people to believe anything the user says."

Kui Luo gave Lu Yin an odd look. "I might be old, and I might have just given you a compliment, but don’t try to use those kinds of tricks on me. Do you think that I’m stupid? How could there be such a pointless secret technique?"

Lu Yin gave Kui Luo a very serious look. "I would have never believed it myself if I had not personally seen it. If I see him again, I’ll make sure to introduce the two of you. He’s a good guy."

Lu Yin then moved away.

Kui Luo was taken aback. Could there really be such a bizarre secret technique? Secret techniques were created by powerful Progenitors. Just how bored did a Progenitor have to be to come up with such a strange secret technique?

Eh? Kui Luo’s head whipped around to look to the south.

Simultaneously, Ni Huang and all the other Semi-Progenitors looked to the south as well. They were able to feel the fluctuations of a battle that involved Semi-Progenitors.

***

There was an astral beast at the edge of the Cosmic Sea heading towards the Innerverse’s eastern flowzones. Lu Buzheng was sitting on the creature’s back, leisurely enjoying some tea, when he suddenly looked to the west and immediately changed the astral beast’s course. "It\'s that guy, Hen Xin. It looks like he ran into a powerful opponent."

A short time later, the astral beast arrived at the border of Venom Flowzone. There was a figure standing within the churning poisonous gas that filled the flowzone, and there was blood streaming down his back.

The wounded man calmly turned his head around to look at Lu Buzheng when the massive astral beast arrived.

Lu Buzheng was surprised. "You’re injured?"

The person standing at the edge of Venom Flowzone was Hen Xin.

The young man in the gold-trimmed white robe also riding on the back of the astral beast was taken aback as well. While the man was not a Semi-Progenitor himself, he was quite familiar with the strength of the masters of the Twelve Heavenly Gates. Hen Xin had started off as an ordinary person with no innate gift or background, yet he had trained excessively to compensate for his meager origins, training in three different cultivation systems until they reached an unbelievable level of mastery. This sort of person was one of the most difficult opponents to face.

The truth was that not a single one of the Twelve Heavenly Gate Masters were simple.

Regardless, Hen Xin had actually been injured. It should be impossible for him to have been injured by any of the Semi-Progenitors from the current era.

Despite the brief time that they had been released from the sourcebox for, these ancient figures had already learned that the strength of humans in the current era was greatly inferior to what humans had possessed during the Heavens Gate era. Humanity’s cultivation techniques had weakened, and an unimaginable amount of time had passed. Without both of these things, it would have been impossible for the Aeternals to invade, let alone destroyed five of the Six Mainlands.

However, the one who had been wounded was not a Semi-Progenitor from the current era, but rather one from the Heavens Sect era, one of the Twelve Heavenly Gate Masters: Hen Xin.

Hen Xin emerged from Venom Flowzone and stepped onto the back of the astral beast with a somber expression. "I encountered two of the Aeternals’ Semi-Progenitors, but one of them is a human with an odd innate gift. She was quite strong. Based on her battle techniques, she should be from the Wang family."

Lu Buzheng frowned. "My Fifth Mainland’s Wang family?"

Hen Xin continued solemnly, "On top of that, while she used the Wang family’s secret techniques, she also used the guardian of the Sword Monument’s movement technique."

"Senior Wu Xing!" Lu Buzheng was stunned.

Hen Xin’s voice dropped low. "Many things have changed since our own era to this current time. Many people have died, and others have become traitors. We need to find out more about the current era."

He then pulled out the wireless jincan he had been given. “But first, we need to deal with these Aeternals. The Progenitors of the Aeternals can only unleash a strength equal to a Semi-Progenitor realm while fighting, which gives us the advantage. The two of us might not be able to achieve victory alone, so we need to reach out to the Semi-Progenitors of this era."

Wireless jincans were able to communicate with each other regardless of the distance between them, but unfortunately, they did not allow for audio or video communications.

Still, given the mental faculties of a cultivator, understanding how to use a wireless jincan was a simple matter, and Hen Xin quickly contacted Lu Yin.

Lu Yin saw a message come over the wireless jincan, and he immediately called Kui Luo and Highsage Grandmaster over. "I just got a message from that ancient powerhouse that we met earlier. He fought with the Aeternals, and it seems his opponents were a Semi-Progenitor corpse king and Marquis Wang. Hen Xin was wounded."

"Marquis Wang?" Highsage Grandmaster was surprised. "It would appear that these ancient Semi-Progenitors are more powerful than we understood. None of the Marquises are easy opponents, and only those with the strength of Arch-Elder Zen or Ni Huang can even escape from them."

Lu Yin shook his head. "Hen Xin was the one who won the battle. He forced Marquis Wang back after badly injuring the corpse king. If Marquis Wang hadn\'t used her innate gift to hurt Hen Xin, he probably could have killed one of the two Semi-Progenitors he was fighting against."

Both Highsage Grandmaster and Kui Luo fell silent. They had always believed that the people of the current era were in no way inferior to their ancestors. There were records of the past that recounted the strength of Progenitor Chen, the Rune Progenitor, and Progenitor Wushang, and while they were all powerful experts with amazing innate gifts, they had all been Progenitors. When those experts had been Semi-Progenitors, they had actually been a bit inferior to the ancient powerhouses.

Marquis Wang had been able to hold back five Semi-Progenitors on her own, but she had been defeated by Hen Xin. This was the strength of an ancient powerhouse who had been the gate master of one of the Twelve Heavenly Gates.

The wireless jincan continued transmitting more messages.

Lu Yin observed the message, and excitement covered his face before he quickly sent back a reply of his own.
