Chapter 2003

On Zenith Mountain, Wang Yi crashed to the ground close to Yu Chen.

Wen Diyi and the others gawked when they saw that Wang Yi had also been thrown in.

Lu Yin had not tried to cause any harm to Wang Yi, merely to leave him unable to fight back. Thus, Wang Yi was able to react almost as soon as he struck the ground, and he quickly jumped back to his feet, though he still had a sharp pain in his back.

When he looked around, the first thing he saw was Yu Chen, but before he could even feel any surprise, he also saw Liu Shaoge. Wang Yi instantly grew wary and quickly prepared himself for a fight.

Liu Shaoge was terrified Wang Yi would immediately attack, so he quickly asked, "Did you just get attacked by me?"

Wang Yi frowned. "I never thought the Celestial Frost Sect would keep secrets so well hidden for them to even have someone like you."

Liu Shaoge raised his hands up in surrender. "That wasn’t me! It was Lu Yin."

Wang Yi was confused. "What’s that?"

Liu Shaoge sighed. "I have no idea why Lu Yin came to the Technocracy, but he used some sort of disguise that even a Semi-Progenitor would have trouble seeing through to replace me. He then captured Yu Chen the same way he did you.”

Wang Yi glanced over at Yu Chen, who nodded. The atmosphere was calming by the moment.

Wang Yi’s eyes narrowed. It was very unexpected that he had actually been attacked by Lu Yin. Wang Yi’s initial impression of the man was from ZENITH, and seeing Lu Yin prove himself to be invincible within the same realm had badly shaken Wang Yi. He had seen that Lu Yin had been comparable to the four peerless Junior Progenitors at that time, and it had had completely overturned his view of the Forsaken Land. After he had left seclusion, Wang Yi’s impression of Lu Yin had been upended yet again.

Wang Yi had only then learned that Lu Yin was actually Lu Xiaoxuan, and yet with just the strength of an Enlighter, Lu Yin had stirred up an incredible amount of chaos within the Perennial World. Later, he had caused a resonance with the Perennial World during his breakthrough to become an Envoy, and his mere existence had prompted the four ruling powers into building an army to send from the Fifth Mainland just to deal with him. Lu Yin had proven himself to be a peerless talent, and his talent as a troublemaker was also unmatched.

Wang Yi had expected it would be difficult for him to meet with Lu Yin once again and have a match. After all, Lu Yin had already become an Envoy, which meant that his strength was no longer just a single level above Wang Yi. Still, he had not expected that he would be instantly defeated as soon as he met Lu Yin without even being able to make a sound. Realizing his comparative weakness was utterly frustrating to Wang Yi.

Liu Shaoge looked up at the sky, wondering how many more people would end up being captured. He was about to become famous.

Hang on. A thought struck him, and Liu Shaoge turned back to Wang Yi. "Why did Lu Yin attack you?"

Wang Yi answered indifferently, "I have no idea."

"He didn\'t say anything?" Liu Shaoge was surprised.

Wang Yi shook his head, and a knowing smile spread across Liu Shaoge’s face. "That\'s good."

Wang Yi had no clue what Liu Shaoge was talking about.

Liu Shaoge proceeded to explain, "If you had seen him and noticed some flaw in his disguise, it would make sense for him to attack you. Instead, he attacked you without any warning, which leaves only one explanation."

Liu Shaoge started gloating. "He’s going to replace you."

Wang Yi\'s face twitched. "He’s going to pretend to be me?"

Liu Shaoge nodded. "Congratulations! You’re about to become famous."

A truly hideous expression appeared on Wang Yi’s face. He was generally a rather stoic person who was not very good with words. Despite that, he was fighting a nearly irresistible urge to start swearing. It was at this moment that he finally understood why so many people hated Lu Xiaoxuan, as well as his identity as Lu Yin. Not even Wang Dashuai could tolerate the man. The bastard was beyond infuriating.

In the outside world, Lu Yin pretended to be Wang Yi and swaggered around the region. He felt it would only be a short bit of time before he was sent out of the Technocracy.

However, Wang Su suddenly showed up.

The Perennial World’s army had remained confined within a certain area, and aside from Semi-Progenitors and those with power levels of over a million, everyone else was restricted to the area. This made it unsurprising when Lu Yin ran into someone else.

“Wang Yi, come with me. The elder wants to see us," Wang Su ordered as soon as she saw Wang Yi.

Lu Yin blinked. "The elder? Which elder?"

Wang Su gave Wang Yi an odd look. "Elder Wang Si, of course."

Lu Yin was rendered speechless. Another Semi-Progenitor was asking to see him? Damn, how was it that everyone was being told to meet with Semi-Progenitors? Since when were Semi-Progenitors so easy to speak with?

"Why is the elder looking for me?" Lu Yin asked.

Wang Su became increasingly suspicious, as this was very abnormal behavior for Wang Yi. She kept a wary eye on him. "You wouldn’t normally ask about something like that. What\'s going on?"

Lu Yin reacted with an expression of pain. "I need to go into seclusion for a few days. My old injury’s flaring up."

Wang Su knitted her brow tightly. "Come with me.”

She then grabbed hold of Lu Yin\'s shoulder and led him towards a distant planet where the Wang family\'s cultivators had settled.

There were people from many different organizations in the Perennial World, but the four ruling powers were each given their own territory.

Wang Su kept a tight grip on Lu Yin’s shoulder as she led him to a deep canyon on the planet. They eventually reached a place that was pitch black and devoid of all light.

There was a cold expression on Wang Su’s face as she turned back to Lu Yin, and then attacked him without any warning. Black ropes shot out from the void to bind Lu Yin\'s limbs. Wang Su had realized that there was something wrong with Wang Yi, but regardless of what was going on, she needed to capture him before figuring anything more out.

Lu Yin was left with no choice but to respond with violence. He took a step forward to move Wang Su. There was a single palm strike, and Wang Su\'s became frozen in horror as she crumpled to the ground.

"Why did you have to be so smart? You made me move against you. The more people I capture, the more likely I’ll get caught. This is really a pain, especially since I can’t replace you," Lu Yin muttered incoherently to himself. He then took Zenith Mountain back out and tossed Wang Su in.

Wang Su was incredibly powerful, as she was qualified to be one of the four Junior Progenitors, but there was still a massive gap between her and Lu Yin’s new strength that was impossible for Wang Su to surpass.

He had already caught quite a few people, and Wang Si had even asked for Wang Yi by name. Wang Yi was no longer a suitable identity for Lu Yin to use, and he needed to hurry up to find another.

The next person he would pose as needed to be someone with a low enough of a position that there would be absolutely no chance of them meeting a Semi-Progenitor. Musing to himself, Lu Yin put Zenith Mountain away and left the canyon.

In Zenith Mountain, Wen Diyi and the others watched as Wang Su fell towards them. They had already grown numb to the shock of who was being sent in to accompany them in their prison. While they were still a bit surprised to see Wang Su, who was a Junior Progenitor, Lu Yin’s strength meant that it was a pretty mild surprise.

Wang Su quickly recovered, and the first person she saw was Wang Yi, which made her reflexively get ready to fight, only to have Wang Yi quickly speak up to stop her, "You were attacked by Lu Yin!"

After a moment, a cloud of confusion fogging Wang Su’s head cleared away. "So it was him."

Wang Yi looked rather indifferent to the development, and he clearly did not want to say anything more. Wang Su looked past him toward Yu Chen and Liu Shaoge. "What\'s going on?"

Liu Shaoge repeated his previous explanation.

Wang Su\'s face contorted in an unsightly fashion. She could not come up with any reason why Lu Yin had appeared in the Technocracy, so she instead started replaying the earlier events in her head. How could such a wide gap have opened up between them? When they had fought in the Dominion Realm, they had possessed almost comparable power.

In the outside world, Lu Yin traversed the entire planet with an impressive speed.

The planet was not completely barren, and there were even a few factories operating.

Lu Yin soon met some people from the Wang family, and he even saw someone quite familiar: Wang Dashuai.

Wang Dashuai was by himself, leaning against a mountain cliff and muttering incoherently to himself. He looked miserable, as there were clear bruises marring his face. For some reason, he had not gotten himself healed or even cleaned up, which gave him a pathetic appearance.

"Even though I got sent to the Yinshan District’s Humility\'s Gate for causing trouble, I was still quite respected within the family. How dare those bastards attack me! Back then, even Envoy realm Elders had to be polite when they met me! I’m in the top ten of the entire Wang family’s younger generation, but just because of that Long Qi—bah! He’s actually Lu Xiaoxuan! That bastard tricked me again and again!

"I just kept blindly trusting him, and even started treating him as my boss! How pathetic is that..."

As Lu Yin approached, he started being able to make out what Wang Dashuai was muttering to himself. Lu Yin actually felt quite apologetic towards Wang Dashuai after hearing him gripe about what he had gone through. It was true that Lu Yin had dragged Wang Dashuai into multiple problems. Truthfully, the fatty was pretty resilient, as most people would have ended up in a much worse mental state after suffering as Wang Dashuai had.

After hearing a bit of Wang Dashuai\'s suffering, Lu Yin offered a silent apology, as he intended to adopt the fatty’s identity next.

Wang Dashuai was the best candidate for Lu Yin’s purposes. The entire Wang family despised Wang Dashuai, and no Semi-Progenitor would ever even glance at him. As long as Lu Yin acted miserable, no one would suspect a thing. Lu Yin even strongly suspected that the fatty had been dragged along with the army because of his connection to Lu Yin, so it was absolutely certain that he would be sent into the Human Domain.

This would also give Lu Yin the chance to take Wang Dashuai away and save him from his miserable fate.

That was it; Lu Yin was acting on behalf of Wang Dashuai in order to save him from his terrible situation. This was a good deed. Lu Yin’s eyes lit up as he walked forward.

Wang Dashuai noticed Wang Yi looking at him with a condescending expression, and the fatty hurried to his feet and offered a tight smile. "Young Master Yi, I didn\'t see you there. I’m so sorry if I disturbed you. I will take my leave now."

Lu Yin sighed. "I\'ll try to be nicer to you."

Those were the last words Wang Dashuai heard before falling unconscious. When he next opened his eyes, he was again looking at Wang Yi.

Wang Dashuai blinked twice before sitting up. His back was hurting badly, and he looked at Wang Yi in a pitiful manner. "Young Master Yi, why did you hit me?"

The fatty was used to being bullied by many members of the Wang family, but Wang Yi had never been one of them. Rather, Wang Yi completely ignored both the fatty and all of the Wang family’s other disciples in the exact same manner.

Wang Yi answered indifferently, "It wasn’t me."

Wang Dashuai was left confused, and it was only after Wang Yi spoke that the fatty started to observe his surroundings. "Hey, where are we?"

He then noticed Wang Su, Yu Chen, and Liu Shaoge, whose presence left Wang Dashuai stunned. "Why are all of you here?"

No one even answered the fatty, not even Liu Shaoge. No one could be bothered to speak to him.

Wang Dashuai hid in a corner and resumed pouting. He continued to blame his fate on Lu Yin while cursing him.

Just like that, Lu Yin took on Wang Dashuai’s appearance and resumed wandering about the planet. Just a single day later, he returned to where he had first seen the fatty muttering to himself, and Lu Yin did not move from that place again.

Unfortunately, the fatty was just too hated by everyone. Just taking a casual stroll saw him attacked by multiple people who each insulted him and beat him. Lu Yin had finally understood Wang Dashuai’s resentment, and Lu Yin felt more apologetic than ever towards the man. Still, things were not really Lu Yin’s fault, but rather a matter of fate.

At this time, Bai Laogui was quite upset. He had very clearly told Elder Qing Xing to send Liu Shaoge to see him, yet Liu Shaoge had never shown up.

Wang Si had similarly summoned both Wang Su and Wang Yi, yet those two had also failed to appear.

Right when Wang Si was about to go search for the two youths herself, Arch-Elder Zen, Highsage Grandmaster, Elder Gong, and Jiu Chi arrived at the border of the Technocracy, asking to meet with the Perennial World’s representatives.

Ni Huang immediately led the other Semi-Progenitors to the border to meet with their counterparts from the Fifth Mainland.

"What? Are you finally willing to give us Lu Xiaoxuan?" Wang Si started making demands as soon as the meeting with Arch-Elder Zen and the others began.

Jiu Chi leveled his gaze onto Wang Si. "My Fifth Mainland is slave to no one."

Wang Si’s brow furrowed. She still remembered what Jiu Chi had said to her the last time they had met, and her temper flared. Fortunately, Ni Huang quickly stepped forward to face Arch-Elder Zen. "If we wanted to enslave you, we wouldn’t have waited this long, and we wouldn’t be the only ones sent here. Let\'s make this clear: are you delivering Lu Xiaoxuan to us or not?”

Arch-Elder Zen replied, "We really don\'t know where Lu Yin is right now, so we have no way to give him to you."

"Then you can just sit back and wait for the war. We’ll see just how much your Forsaken Land can handle," Wang Si sneered.

Arch-Elder Zen shot a glare towards Wang Si. "Do the four ruling powers only know how to fight other humans? First, you eliminated the Lu family, and now you want to destroy us. Every time you open your mouth, you try to push for a war. All I can see is that it looks like you’re a spy sent by Aeternus."

Wang Si was furious at such an accusation. "You!"
