Chapter 2725: Lu Yin Attacks

Jiang Xiaodao delivered Sage Jiang’s congratulations.

When Snack Saint arrived, Lu Yin immediately fled and avoided seeing Snack Sage at all.

Gong Yu delivered Sage Gong’s congratulations.

Shao Gu delivered Sovereign Shao Yin’s congratulations.

The Arboreal Realm, the Transcendent Universe, and every other universe all sent people to offer congratulations. Xuan Qi’s accomplishment was both rare and extremely important.

It was at this time that Xuan Qi\'s name became incredibly famous. Anyone who mentioned him felt almost as though they were speaking about a peak powerhouse.

Chen Le also arrived, delivering the Three Monarchs Universe’s congratulations.

"From now on, I will also call you brother. Don’t be bothered by it, Brother Xuan Qi," Chen Le said with a smile.

Lu Yin smiled as he welcomed Chen Le into the Red Zone.

Xu Wuji had already left, so Lu Yin was personally welcoming all of his well-wishers.

"It\'s an honor, Senior Chen Le. Please, come in."

At the top of the bell tower, Lu Yin stepped away from all of the others to speak to Chen Le alone.

"Have you spoken to Bureau Director Gan?" Lu Yin asked.

Chen Le replied, "I went to the Lost Clan’s Shangsan Festival, planning to sound him out a bit, but I didn’t dare to make things too obvious. It seems that he truly invited you to help his Bureau branch capture spies."

"I certainly hope that that’s true. I don\'t want Mr. Daheng coming after me."

Chen Le enviously commented, "It wouldn’t matter even if he does come after you. With Evernight in your possession, as well as your status as a quasi-member of the Lost Clan, not even Mr. Daheng would dare to do anything to you."

"However, that will completely change if my real identity is exposed," Lu Yin countered.

Chen Le nodded. "Something strange has happened as well. Do you remember the passage that connects the Three Monarchs Universe to your Origin Universe?"

Lu Yin\'s eyes narrowed. "What about it? Does Luo Shan want to try to use it again?"

Chen Le nodded. "That’s right, but he doesn’t want to open it, but rather to seal it closed."

Lu Yin clasped his hands behind his back, not at all surprised by this news.

"You aren’t surprised?" Chen Le felt puzzled.

Lu Yin did not answer and instead asked, "How does Luo Shan intend to seal it?"

Chen Le explained, "From what I’ve heard, an Array Master has been invited from the Cyclic Universe to set up a sourcebox array in the Three Monarchs Universe. This way, even if the passage is opened from the side of the Origin Universe, the passage will remain sealed."

Lu Yin’s eyes narrowed. Lord Xu had been absolutely correct. Luo Shan had indeed promised Sovereign Shao Yin that he would support the proposal to add the Origin Universe to the Endless Frontier. Why else would he be trying to seal the passage?

Sealing the passage would ensure that the Three Monarchs Universe was not directly connected to the Endless Frontier.

However, why had Luo Shan agreed to support the proposal at all?

The Origin Universe was of immeasurable value to Monarch Luo, and he had been targeting the Origin Universe for many, many years. It was even possible that he secretly already regarded the Origin Universe as his property. There was no reason that Lu Yin could think of for Monarch Luo to agree to support Sovereign Shao Yin’s proposal.

What had Sovereign Shao Yin paid to gain Luo Shan’s support?

"Has Sovereign Shao Yin recently visited your universe?" Lu Yin asked.

Chen Le shook his head. "Not that I’ve seen."

Lu Yin frowned. "Have you managed to locate Monarch Xing’s clan?"

Chen Le’s face twisted. "That’s a closely guarded secret, so I can’t ask Monarch Luo about it directly."

"Go back now!" Lu Yin ordered.

Chen Le felt confused. "Has something happened?"

Lu Yin looked over at the man. "I’ll explain things to you when it’s time, but Luo Shan is very wiley, and if you are told now, it will be too easy for you to reveal flaws to him."

Chen Le retorted, "No, I have very few interactions with Monarch Luo."

"Go back," Lu Yin commanded coldly.

Chen Le frowned as he stared at Lu Yin\'s back, but he still left.

The two were working together on the basis of mutual usage, so Lu Yin did not consider Chen Le\'s personal feelings at all.

Something needed to be done, as Lu Yin absolutely could not allow the Origin Universe to be merged into the Endless Frontier.

Xuan Qi soon made a public announcement that he was going into seclusion to study the Evernight card. Everyone understood that anyone would want to study such a treasure as quickly as possible after obtaining it.

...

In the Three Monarchs Universe, there were shouts and curses endlessly erupting from the Mu family’s estate in the Upper King Domain. People were occasionally being tossed through the air, coughing up blood when they struck the ground.

"Get out of here! Get out!"

People were so terrified that they fled, their faces pale.

Within a courtyard, Luo Zang\'s eyes were bloodshot, and his breathing was ragged. His recent trip to the Lost Clan’s universe had been utterly humiliating!

It was actually a one-star Seasonal card! He had only attracted a one-star Seasonal card! It was literally one of the worst cards in the Lost Clan’s possession. In contrast, Xuan Qi had managed to obtain a seven-star Immemorial card, which was literally one of the best cards that the Lost Clan possessed.

That bastard! Bastard!

Many people throughout the megaverse had been comparing Luo Zang to Xuan Qi, as one had attracted the best card possible, and the other had attracted the worst card possible. The comparison made Luo Zang want to vomit blood.

It felt like everyone was laughing at him, and even his father had told him to get out of sight and to not embarrass himself in public.

"Xuan Qi, Xuan Qi—!" Luo Zang roared.

Some distance away, Old Lady Mu frowned. The silver needle in her hand pierced the embroidery, completing the image that she had been working on.

"How many now?"

A servant replied, "Five."

The old woman glanced in Luo Zang’s direction. While venting his anger, he had already killed five people. It was a bit excessive this time, but he was genuinely enraged.

It also made perfect sense; Xuan Qi had proven himself the best, while Luo Zang had performed the worst. Of course Luo Zang would hate Xuan Qi more than anyone.

"Leave him to it," Old Lady Mu said as she continued with her embroidery.

An unknown amount of time passed, but suddenly, everyone nearby collapsed. The old woman’s head rose, and she turned to look to the side, where Lu Yin stepped out.

"So it’s you?" The old lady appeared rather depressed.

Lu Yin looked at the woman and then slowly stated, "I need all of the information that you have on Monarch Mu, down to the smallest detail."

A short while later, Lu Yin appeared in Luo Zang\'s courtyard.

The man’s bloodshot eyes stared at Lu Yin, unable to believe that someone had suddenly appeared in his personal quarters. "Xuan Qi? Why are you here?"

Lu Yin did not waste any time talking. He took a single step forward and then vanished. At the same time, Luo Zang also disappeared.

In the distance, Old Lady Mu continued with her embroidery. Things were about to change in the Three Monarchs Universe.

...

Deep below Aeternus Nation, a body fell. It was Luo Zang.

Monarch Mu stared at the young man in surprise. "Zang\'er?"

Luo Zang felt dizzy, but he whirled around when he heard Monarch Mu\'s voice. "Mother?"

"Zang\'er, you-"

When Monarch Mu tried to speak, she was interrupted by Lu Yin appearing behind Luo Zang. "It’s about time for the two of you to be reunited."

Monarch Mu stared at Lu Yin, and her eyes flickered.

Luo Zang spun around to stare at Lu Yin in a daze. "Xuan Qi, did you capture my mother?"

"Sorry to have kept you apart for so long," Lu Yin calmly stated.

"Who are you? You-"

"Zang\'er!" Monarch Mu shouted, causing Luo Zang to turn back around to look at the woman. She appeared quite distraught. "Don\'t speak."

Luo Zang opened his mouth anyways, "Mother, this-"

"Listen to your mother, she’s right," Lu Yin said as he looked at Monarch Mu. "Have you figured it out?"

Monarch Mu stared at Lu Yin. "What do you want me to do?"

Lu Yin waved a hand, and Luo Zang was tossed aside. He slammed into the ground in a place that was filled with death energy.

Monarch Mu\'s expression instantly changed. "Stop!"

"It looks like you care about your son, though your son doesn\'t care about the lives of others. I also don\'t care about his life," Lu Yin slowly said.

Monarch Mu glared at Lu Yin. "If anything happens to Zang\'er, I will never do anything to help you!"

Lu Yin laughed. "Then why don’t we see if your love for your family or your selfishness wins out in the end? I’m betting that you will agree to help me."

Luo Zang lay on the ground where he had landed, unconscious as death energy slowly seeped into his body through his nose.

Monarch Mu\'s face grew pale. "Xuan Qi, if you want me to help you, just release him and don\'t do anything to him! I will help you with anything you want."

Lu Yin let out a breath. "What kind of person is Luo Shan? How powerful is he? Tell me all about him."

"Bring Zang\'er over here first," Monarch Mu begged.

Lu Yin looked at the woman coldly. "You’re in no position to try to negotiate with me."

Monarch Mu gritted her teeth. "Luo Shan is a complete fraud. Everything about him is fake. His strength is fake. Having the respect of the Great Sovereign is fake. Everything is fake. This is what he’s done to preserve the Three Monarchs Universe. Even escaping from the Hollow was nothing more than a show.”

"So, what I was told before is true?" Lu Yin asked. Monarch Mu was perfectly matching Chen Le’s words from before.

When Lu Yin had shared Chen Le’s words with Monarch Mu, the woman had mocked Lu Yin and asked how Luo Shan could be a fraud, but at this moment, she was saying the same thing.

Monarch Mu had been left with no choice. She took a deep breath and then nodded.

Lu Yin waved his hand again, pulling Luo Zang back over and then slapping him awake.

Luo Zang coughed. The death energy that had entered his body completely suppressed his monarch essence, rendering him unable to mobilize any power.

He opened his eyes and looked around in a bit of a daze.

"Luo Zang, snap out of it. Your mother’s right here," Lu Yin said.

Luo Zang’s eyes flared, and he stared at Lu Yin. "Xuan Qi, what do you want?"

"Xuan Qi, let him go! Please!" Monarch Mu begged.

A smile spread across Lu Yin\'s face, and he started praising the woman, "Despite being a peak powerhouse, you are actually begging me. Luo Zang, you should thank your mother, as she’s doing her best to save you. If not for her, you wouldn’t be here right now."

Luo Zang\'s eyes flushed red. "Xuan Qi, who are you?"

Monarch Mu shouted, "Zang\'er, don\'t be rude!"

Luo Zang gasped. He had never thought that the day would come when his life would lie in the hands of this particular person.

How could it be Xuan Qi? Just who was he? Luo Zang could still remember the first time they had met in the Sixverse Academy. At the time, Xuan Qi had simply been someone who tagged along with Luo Lao\'er. Everyone had commented on how talented Xuan Qi was, and the more those comments were made, the more jealous Luo Zang had become. He had even started thinking about the day when he would make Xuan Qi disappear...

Luo Zang had never dreamed that he would fall into Xuan Qi’s hands. Not only that, but his mother, a powerful Monarch, was Xuan Qi’s captive and was even begging him to stop. Just what was his real identity?

There was a bang, and blood splattered across the ground.

Monarch Mu could not even react to what she had just seen, and Luo Zang was even more confused. Blood splashed across his face. He slowly looked down, only to see that his right arm had been crushed.

A terrible pain flashed through his nerves, and he looked up at Lu Yin, confused. "Why?"

Monarch Mu shouted, "Xuan Qi, what are you doing?"

Lu Yin laughed. "Monarch Mu, didn\'t you just ask me to do this?"

Monarch Mu roared, "I just told you everything I needed to! Why did you hurt Zang\'er?"

Lu Yin smiled. "I really admire you three Monarchs. No, I admire you and Luo Shan a great deal. When did you first create this lie? Was it back when you joined the Sixverse Universe? Or was it after you became a peak powerhouse? Just when was it?"

"What in the world are you talking about?" Monarch Mu glared at Lu Yin.

Lu Yin shrugged. "I might as well tell you that the person who told me that Monarch Luo is a fraud and not particularly strong was Chen Le. When I asked you about it, you should have already guessed that someone from the Three Monarchs Universe had betrayed you. However, the whole story is a lie. You and Luo Shan made an agreement, and in order to convince everyone that it’s true and to ensure that you deceived everyone, you even sacrificed this poor Luo Zang.

"How could I ever believe that you are telling me the truth without threatening Luo Zang? You are even telling me the exact same thing as Chen Le, which should be even more convincing. However, what Chen Le knows is a lie that you concocted. As for me, I wanted to see if you would really be willing to sacrifice your own son."

Lu Yin bent down to look Monarch Mu in the eyes. "I have to say, you are really willing to do just that."
