Xikenmald said, "It seems you have heard something. The Zishan Clan and the Yushan Clan are the two most important families in the Da Yu Empire. Eight hundred years ago, the Immortal Yushan Emperor inherited the Da Yu Empire and bestowed the throne to the Immortal Zishan. However, Immortal Zishan died during an adventure. The Zishan Clan had to retreat for certain reasons and gradually disappeared. You, are the only descendant of the Zishan Clan."
Lu Yin's eyes flickered, and he remained silent.
Xikenmald continued, "I know what you're thinking. Immortal Zishan was not killed by the Emperor. Everyone knows this."
Lu Yin was surprised, "Why?"
Xikenmald sighed, "Before the Emperor inherited the throne, the Da Yu Empire was a very weak force in the Canglan territory. It was the Emperor and Immortal Zishan who worked hard to bring the Da Yu Empire to its current level. However, this was not enough. The Emperor's wish is to lead the Da Yu Empire into the Inner Universe. Without Immortal Zishan, it would be very difficult for the Emperor to achieve this alone. The Emperor has a far-sighted vision and would not harm Immortal Zishan at that time."
"Alright, I don't have time to listen to the past of the Da Yu Empire. I just want to know what my current identity is," Lu Yin said impatiently.
Xikenmald said solemnly, "The successor to the Zishan throne. I have received a direct order from the Emperor. Lu Yin, from the moment your identity was confirmed, you are the Zishan King, the Zishan King of our Da Yu Empire."
Lu Yin was surprised, "So easy? No need to go through a series of complicated procedures? No need to be retested in the capital planet of the Da Yu Empire?"
Xikenmald shook his head, "No need. All the data on the Perseverance is connected to the Empire. Everything about you is in the Emperor's eyes. The Emperor has already recognized you as the official Zishan King. Once you return to the capital planet and meet the Emperor, everything the Zishan King deserves will be granted to you."
Lu Yin's eyes lit up. This was what he liked most. To battle Qingyu, he had spent all his star energy crystals to extend the time-stopping space to five days. All the star energy crystals he had robbed during the trial were gone, and he was worried about how to obtain more. It seemed he didn't need to worry anymore.
"By the way, if you need any help in the capital planet in the future, you can find the Mald family. I have already instructed the family to help you as much as possible," Xikenmald said, then handed Lu Yin a personal terminal, a very ordinary one, "Take it, it will be convenient."
Lu Yin glanced at him and nodded, "Thank you. If there's nothing else, I'll leave."
Xikenmald nodded. As Lu Yin walked to the door, he suddenly said, "There's a woman named Mira. If you see her, be very careful."
Lu Yin acknowledged and walked out of the command room.
Xikenmald's attitude puzzled Lu Yin. Even if he was the so-called Zishan King, he was at most a leisurely king with no real power, and he was still a young person in the Exploration Realm. Xikenmald had no reason to be so nice to him. Could he have a connection with the Zishan Clan?
At the same time, Las met with Shaluo Tree.
"What, that bastard is really a descendant of the Zishan Clan, and he has been recognized by the Emperor to inherit the Zishan throne?" Las shouted in disbelief.
Shaluo Tree's dark eyes stared at Las.
Las felt a chill down his back and quickly took two steps back, not daring to speak.
Shaluo Tree said coldly, "Remember, never shout at me again, or I'll cut out your tongue."
Las was drenched in cold sweat and hurriedly apologized. Although his father was the deputy minister of finance, in terms of power, he could not compare to the Royal Court's Thirteenth Team. Shaluo Tree was the deputy leader of the Royal Court's Twelfth Team, with far more real power than his father. If it weren't for his father's control over part of the financial power, Shaluo Tree wouldn't even bother with him.
"Stay away from Lu Yin in the future. Although it's just a title, if he uses it to pressure you, you must comply," Shaluo Tree said coldly.
Las hurriedly agreed.
Shaluo Tree snorted, his eyes looking into the dark universe. Zishan King? Let's see how long you can last. Once trouble starts, the Empire will be in chaos.
On the other side, Jenny Ona was also very angry, "Why is this happening? A non-family king is no joke. What right does he have to inherit?"
Tol Ona smiled bitterly, "Miss, don't be angry. This matter is already decided. The captain has passed the message to stay away from that person."
"Why? Is being the Zishan King so great?" Jenny Ona said discontentedly.
Tol Ona was helpless. He wanted to tell Jenny Ona something, but he didn't dare. If he said it, the girl would definitely go berserk. Forget it, let the clan leader tell her.
For two consecutive days, Lu Yin didn't leave his room, focusing on recovering his body and studying the star map. The power of the fourth star was almost twice that of the third star. Lu Yin was looking forward to the appearance of the fifth star. If he had five stars during the battle with Qingyu, he wouldn't need the help of a Fusion Realm expert; he could crush Qingyu on his own.
Unfortunately, the Tianxing technique was only at the初级 level, capable of simulating up to eight stars. Once he reached the Fusion Realm, the effectiveness of the Tianxing technique might decrease, especially when facing geniuses who had powerful combat techniques. The Tianxing technique would fall behind, which was a pity.
"Are you studying the star map every day because it's related to your cultivation technique?" A pleasant voice sounded from behind, followed by a faint fragrance.
Lu Yin's eyes widened, and he suddenly turned around. He saw a beautiful woman with a pure face and white hair that reached her ankles. A small tuft of hair on her forehead was tied up, and she was looking at him with interest.
"Who are you?" Lu Yin did not move rashly. Facing this woman, his first reaction was that he could not match her. She could approach him silently without being detected, even the Tianxing technique did not react. She was absolutely terrifying.
"My name is Mira," the white-haired beauty smiled, her eyes fixed on Lu Yin, a hint of red visible in them.
Mira? Lu Yin's heart stirred, remembering what Xikenmald had told him two days ago, to be careful of this woman. "Do you have something to ask me?"
Mira smiled, walked past Lu Yin, her white hair fluttering, and slowly sat down. She crossed her right leg over her left, barefoot, her round and cute toes wiggling, the nails painted a seductive red. She stared at Lu Yin, "Can you tell me why you study the star map every day?"
Lu Yin looked at Mira, his gaze heavy, and said calmly, "I lost my memory, trying to find my way home."
Mira played with her white hair, "Do you know who I am?"
Lu Yin shook his head.
Mira said calmly, "I come from the Inner Universe and am a member of the Galactic Youth Council."
Lu Yin's pupils contracted. The Galactic Youth Council was a terrifying organization, theoretically able to judge all the young people in the universe, legally possessing an army. The Da Yu Empire's Youth Council was a subordinate organization.
"The Da Yu Empire's Youth Council was dissolved by me. Do you understand now?" Mira continued.
Lu Yin took a deep breath, "What does this have to do with me?"
Mira stood up, slowly walked to Lu Yin, and lifted her hand, her index finger supporting his chin, emitting a captivating aura, "I admire you. I can recommend you to join the Outer Galactic Youth Council. The condition is that you must join the Tenth Academy of the Starry Sky and achieve some results for me to see."
Lu Yin stared into Mira's eyes, the red in them becoming more apparent. This woman made him feel hot all over, filled with attraction, yet she exuded an unseen, even unfelt danger, making him feel cold all over. "Why me?"
Mira's lips curled into a beautiful, soul-stirring smile, especially her eyes, which made Lu Yin feel an urge to be drawn in. "Your talent is very unique. Can you tell me what it is used for?"
Lu Yin took a few steps back, "Just because of my talent?"
Mira withdrew her hand, "Any cultivator with talent can directly join the Galactic Youth Council. This is a promise of the Ten Decisions. However, the scope of the Galactic Youth Council is too large. The Da Yu Empire's Youth Council is one of its subordinate organizations. Ordinary talented cultivators can only join this level. Only extraordinary talented cultivators can directly join the Galactic Youth Council. Which category do you think you belong to?"
Lu Yin had never thought of joining the Youth Council based on his talent. His talent, which could not be shown to others, was not too weak but too strong. Rolling a six on a die, any result would be shocking. If possible, he didn't want to expose it, but it was seen during the battle with Qingyu. Xikenmald didn't ask much but definitely had some suspicions. This woman was the first to ask.
"My talent can accelerate the healing process, nothing else," Lu Yin said.
