Chapter 2778: Wendy Becomes A Disciple

Lu Yin had always assumed that Bai Wangyuan and the other leaders of the four ruling powers were the only ones involved in exiling the Lu family, but Bai Sheng, Xia Qin, and several others were also Progenitors. Unless Lu Yin confirmed that they had nothing to do with his family’s exile, he would not leave them out of his revenge.

Bai Sheng’s eyebrows rose high. "Are you finalizing your revenge list?"

Lu Yin casually replied, "You can say that."

Bai Sheng stared at Lu Yin for a long moment and then put away his Shengtian Stick. "I had nothing to do with any of that."

Lu Yin then looked at Xia Qin, who simply stated, "My only enemy is Aeternus. I have nothing to do with Shenwu's Sky, let alone your Lu family."

Lu Yin nodded. Finally, he turned to look at Monarch Xing. "When Luo Shan returns, give him my regards. We’ll settle our accounts then."

Lu Yin then simply left.

Monarch Xing and the others did not say much after Lu Yin left. As Bai Sheng had said, Lu Yin was getting more and more arrogant, and that punch had been quite intimidating. No one could say what abilities Lu Yin had managed to keep hidden, even after so long, but there was no denying that they could not do anything to him.

Starting from that moment, it became inevitable that Lu Yin’s legend would spread across the Three Monarchs Universe, which was exactly what he wanted.

At this moment, the person whose mind was racing the most was Chen Le. He wanted to find an opportunity to speak with Lu Yin alone. Just what was the Dao Monarch thinking?

Lu Yin soon arrived at Shenwu Continent, where he saw Grandmaster Gu Yan and Gu Yue’s descendants. As for Old Bo and Ban Bianhong, they were already corpses.

They all saw Lu Yin return, and Grandmaster Gu Yan offered a deep bow. "Thank you very much."

Lu Yin’s hand moved out to raise the old man back up. "Senior Gu Yue helped me in the past as well, and he set up a sourcebox array to protect the Fifth Mainland, sacrificing himself and his family."

Grandmaster Gu Yan sighed. "He was lonely and helpless in this place, but he was also willing to die for it. Gu Yue was such a kind child. Now that he has been avenged, I have the peace of mind to study sourcebox arrays again. I hope that I will one day be able to help you."

Lu Yin smiled. "Senior, there’s no need for you to feel any sort of pressure. I’ve merely acted as I should. Don't forget that we are friends."

The grandmaster happily replied, "It’s true, we’ve been friends for many years. I used to enjoy a great many delicacies with Lu Xiaoxuan in Food Paradise, haha."

Lu Yin was happy to see Grandmaster Gu Yan finally lay down the burden he had been carrying in his heart for so long.

"Also, Mu Shang has been missing for quite some time now, and I have no idea where he went, so be careful. I believe that the four ruling powers may have sent him to the Sixverse Association, which would not be good for you," Grandmaster Gu Yan warned after suddenly remembering something.

Lu Yin's eyes flickered. Mu Shang? He had been dead for quite some time, but Lu Yin could not be connected to that matter.

"I understand. I’ll look into that."

Lu Yin soon left Shenwu Continent and returned to the Heavens Sect. It was time for Xuan Qi to emerge from seclusion and make some moves as well.

As soon as Lu Yin arrived at the Heavens Sect, Arch-Elder Zen sought him out, a solemn expression on his face. "Someone wants to accept Wendy Yushan as their disciple."

Lu Yin was surprised. "Accept Wendy Yushan as a disciple? Who?"

"Someone who claims to be Sage Bodhi, one of the Cyclic Universe’s Nine Sages," Arch-Elder Zen replied.

The Heavens Sect was automatically wary of anyone from the Sixverse Association.

Lu Yin was taken aback. Did Sage Bodhi want to accept Wendy Yushan as her disciple? After considering the matter for a moment, Lu Yin realized that Sage Bodhi must have discovered Wendy Yushan's innate gift.

Wendy Yushan had been thrown onto the Endless Frontier by Sovereign Shao Yin, and yet she had managed to escape using nothing but her own abilities, which made absolutely no sense whatsoever. Sovereign Shao Yin was not stupid, so how could he have allowed Wendy Yushan to leave? However, she had done just that, and there was no way that Sage Bodhi would not look into the matter. Wendy Yushan had already told Lu Yin that her innate gift had been exposed, so it was not surprising that Sage Bodhi had learned of it.

"What has Wendy said?"

"She is currently talking to Sage Bodhi’s disciple."

Lu Yin looked over towards Wendy Yushan's residence in the Heavens Sect, which was an independent mountain peak. At the moment, a woman wearing a black windbreaker was speaking to Wendy. The woman appeared rather cold, but her eyes were soft and admiring when she looked at Wendy Yushan.

The woman was as powerful as a Semi-Progenitor.

Lu Yin vanished, and he quickly reappeared just outside Wendy Yushan's courtyard. She immediately noticed his presence, and the woman sitting across her turned around to look at Lu Yin. She quickly rose and offered him a bow. "Proximity’s Ah Qiao greets Dao Monarch Lu."

Lu Yin stepped into the courtyard, observing the woman. "Are you one of Sage Bodhi’s people?"

Ah Qiao had a cold appearance, but she behaved very respectfully. "Sage Bodhi is my master."

Lu Yin nodded. "Have a seat."

He walked over to the stone table and sat down, and only then did Ah Qiao also sit. While remaining respectful, she was not formal. As one of Sage Bodhi’s disciples, she was a part of Proximity and had become accustomed to the unending battle of the Endless Frontier. She would be neither servile nor arrogant, even when facing peak powerhouses as powerful as Progenitors.

The reason why she was respectful towards Lu Yin was not because of his status or personal power, but rather because of what he had accomplished during his time on the Endless Frontier.

Only Proximity and the Lost Clan’s Great Elder truly understood how desperate the battle in the Umbral Universe had been. Lu Yin was not even an Ascendant, but the forces involved in that battle amply demonstrated his strength. Even Sage Bodhi herself had nothing but respect for Lu Yin.

Not everyone in the Sixverse Association hated the Origin Universe. As for Sage Bodhi, the only thing she hated was the Aeternals.

"So Sage Bodhi wants to accept Wendy as her disciple?" Lu Yin asked.

Ah Qiao nodded. "Wendy possesses an extraordinary innate gift, which my master appreciates greatly. For that reason, she has sent me here on her behalf to discuss accepting Wendy as a disciple. My master cannot leave Proximity."

Lu Yin looked over at Wendy Yushan. "What do you think?"

Wendy Yushan and Lu Yin stared at each other. "I want to go to Proximity."

"That's a part of the Sixverse Association."

Wendy Yushan looked away and softly answered, "I’ve already attended the Sixverse Academy, so I am no stranger to the Sixverse Association."

"You know what I mean."

"I understand what you are trying to say, but cultivators risk their lives fighting the universe in order to improve. You can protect me for a time, but not forever. You should know how I am. Even when I was thrown onto the Endless Frontier, I managed to leave on my own. After escaping from that place, I can go wherever I want to, and I want to go to Proximity."

Wendy Yushan's attitude was firm, and Lu Yin could not argue with her.

He nodded. "If you’ve already decided, then go become Sage Bodhi’s disciple."

He then pulled out the needle-like weapon and the pill skin before handing them both to Wendy Yushan. "You can go, but since the Endless Frontier is so dangerous, take these with you."

The gifts caught Ah Qiao completely off guard. Why was Lu Yin giving Wendy a giant needle and some sort of skin? Was that leather? What could that be used for?

Wendy Yushan did not refuse, as she understood what both of these items were. The needle-like weapon was capable of piercing a Semi-Progenitor’s inner world, and it could even threaten a Progenitor. Meanwhile, the pill skin was durable enough to block attacks from a seven-tribulation Envoy. Both were powerful tools.

There was no need for gratitude or feelings of debt between Lu Yin and Wendy Yushan, and Ah Qiao could not stay long, as she needed to get back to Proximity. Thus, she soon left with Wendy Yushan.

"Everyone has their own path, and she is no different. There’s no need to overthink this matter," Arch-Elder Zen said while feeling a bit emotional.

Their universe had completely changed. Arch-Elder Zen’s generation had thought that the Fifth Mainland was the center of the universe, with the only outside areas being the Technocracy, the Astral Beast Domain, and the Astral Wilderness, all of which were difficult to explore. Then, the Sixth Mainland had invaded them and the Fifth Mainland had been connected to the Perennial World, expanding people’s understanding of the universe as a whole. Shockingly, they had also ended up connecting to the Sixverse Association, which had greatly expanded the Fifth Mainland’s horizons.

They felt that they had finally learned the true vastness of the megaverse.

If Arch-Elder Zen had not broken through and had remained a Semi-Progenitor, he would have no value or importance on the megaverse’s stage. He would only be qualified to deal with other powerful cultivators who were equal to Semi-Progenitors.

Arch-Elder Zen could not help but remember Lingzhi Mavis and Xia Ji. They had both died without even seeing what lay beyond their own universe, which could only be regarded as a pity.

The old man then suddenly remembered something, and he looked back at Lu Yin. "Are you worried or merely reluctant?"

Lu Yin was completely caught off guard. "About what?"

Arch-Elder Zen let out a long breath. "You are no longer young, and it’s time for you to leave your own descendants behind."

Lu Yin was speechless. "Senior, you’re even a Progenitor. You should make your own descendants."

Arch-Elder Zen coughed and acted deaf.

Lu Yin felt quite entertained as he watched Arch-Elder Zen leave.

A short while later, Lu Yin announced that he would return to seclusion in order to prepare for his breakthrough to become a Semi-Progenitor.

...

In the Voidforce Universe’s Red Zone, Skinner, Ghost Three, Ning Ran, and Boss Guan had gathered at the top of the bell tower to discuss various spies that needed to be arrested.

Suddenly they saw someone else, whose presence startled them. Naturally, they had noticed Xuan Qi.

"Acting Bureau Director, have you ended your seclusion?" Skinner asked happily.

The team captains quickly moved forward to greet Lu Yin, and the Bureau manager also arrived. "Greetings, Acting Bureau Director."

"Greetings, Acting Bureau Director."

Lu Yin grunted. "I’ve only been in seclusion for a few months, which is not very long at all, but the Lost Clan’s cards are all complex and profound. My cultivation is not good enough yet, so unfortunately, I’ve already done all that I can for now."

Ghost Three quickly offered a bit of flattery. "The Acting Bureau Director is incredibly talented, unequaled in both the past and the present. While you may have only been in seclusion for a few months, I believe that the Acting Bureau Director’s talent must have allowed you to fully master your card."

The other three team captains looked at the shameless brownnoser. How could he spew such garbage with a straight face?

Evernight was one of the Lost Clan’s most powerful cards, and the only other known equal was with the Lost Clan’s Great Elder. Fully mastering Evernight meant gaining the strength of a peak powerhouse, and it was impossible for the Acting Bureau Director to possess that level of power with his current cultivation. Ghost Three was not being subtle at all.

Lu Yin found the matter quite funny, but he said nothing further for the moment. Instead, he simply listened to the team captains’ discussion about spies before they all left.

While Lu Yin had gained some measure of control over Evernight, he was a great ways away from fully mastering it. Old Mo’s power of darkness had given him a bit of inspiration, and without that, Lu Yin would have struggled to achieve even his current level of mastery.

It took only a few days for word that Xuan Qi had emerged from seclusion to spread, and countless people sent their representatives to the Red Zone, hoping to establish a good relationship with him. After all, once Xuan Qi became a peak powerhouse, he was guaranteed to be one of the most powerful people in existence.

Skinner also shared a funny bit of gossip that had recently emerged; Xu Wuji had dirt on his face. While he would never mention exactly what had happened, the team captains had somehow witnessed the event, and the atmosphere was rather awkward.

Lu Yin instantly thought of the box that he had delivered for Fang Yi. Whatever had happened must have been because of that box.

"By the way, I happened to see someone approaching your seclusion area, Acting Bureau Director." Skinner suddenly mentioned.

Lu Yin's pupils shrank slightly. "Did you drive them away?"

Skinner shook his head. "Not us, but the Bureau Director drove them away."

Lu Yin's heart sank. "The Bureau Director himself saw that my seclusion was not disturbed?"

Skinner nodded and then moved closer to whisper, "Do you know who was driven away, Acting Bureau Director? It was the Void Morphora that the Bureau Director personally recruited to serve as the Red Zone’s guardian. Someone bribed him to attack you, Acting Bureau Director. Luckily, the Bureau Director himself drove the man away, or else you would have been in grave danger."

Lu Yin's eyes flickered; the situation had just taken a turn for the worse.

It was hard to say whether a Semi-Progenitor-level cultivator would notice that Xuan Qi had been present or not, but there was no way that Xu Wuji would miss that particular detail.
