Chapter 68

Yin's lips curled up, and he looked at Lu Yin enviously, "You're really lucky, kid. You're enjoying the shade under a tree planted by others, hahaha."

Lu Yin stared at Yin.

Yin laughed for a while and then said, "The Zishan Clan had two marriage alliances in the past. The first was with the Ona family, established by the previous Ona family head and the Zishan Clan. The second was with the Yushan Clan, the royal family of the Great Yu Empire, a promise made by the Immortal Yu and the Immortal Zishan. These two marriage alliances should have been fulfilled long ago, but the death of the Immortal Zishan delayed them. In theory, with the Zishan Clan's extinction, these promises should have vanished. But now you've appeared, the sole heir of the Zishan Clan, so both marriage alliances naturally belong to you. How enviable."

Lu Yin raised an eyebrow and frowned, "Marriage alliances from hundreds of years ago are no longer valid."

Yin sneered, "Hundreds of years ago? Is that so distant? The lifespan of a strong star-walker is generally over five hundred years. Do you know how long the Immortal Yu reigned? Eight hundred years. A promise from a few hundred years ago is just a matter of his early life to him, not distant at all. At least, everyone who made this promise, except the Immortal Zishan, is still alive and well."

Lu Yin's gaze turned thoughtful, and he began to feel a headache. He had thought it was just a leisurely prince, but it turned out to be quite troublesome, with marriage alliances to the royal family. He had investigated the Immortal Yushan, and this iron-blooded emperor valued promises the most. This marriage alliance might, possibly, not be canceled!

"You have more to consider than just that. The Zishan Clan once controlled nearly half of the Great Yu Empire's military power. Although the Zishan Clan is extinct, many of their former subordinates are still alive, such as Xikemaluo, the Maluo family, which once belonged to the Zishan Clan," Yin said.

"Anything else?" Lu Yin asked.

Yin's eyes darted around, "There are many, but why should I tell you?"

"You've said so much already. What's your condition? Speak up," Lu Yin said coolly.

Yin's lips curled up, and he stared at Lu Yin, "Have you found something?"

Lu Yin's eyes flashed, "No."

Yin said calmly, "Don't deny it. I can sense it, it's in your spatial ring."

"Then tell me what it is," Lu Yin said coolly.

Yin shook his head with a creepy smile, pointing to his eyes, "Red."

Lu Yin's eyes narrowed, "Is it yours?"

"Our first meeting was not a coincidence. The things we seek are different, but their locations are the same," Yin said.

"I can return it to you," Lu Yin said.

Yin turned to look into the distance, "No need, keep it. It will be useful in the future."

"This thing is useless to me."

"That's because you don't know what it represents."

"Is your assassination of Zhang Dingtian related to this thing?"

"Do you really want to know?" Yin looked at Lu Yin, smiling like a fox.

Lu Yin said solemnly, "The first time I saw you, I saw the Corpse King. The second time, the Corpse King appeared again. You killed Zhang Dingtian and destroyed the thermal weapon depot because Zhang Dingtian ordered the use of thermal weapons to exterminate the zombie wave. What connection do you have with the Corpse King?"

Yin made a gesture to hush, "Don't say such things. How could I be connected to the Corpse King? That's just a product of a failed planetary evolution trial, unrelated to me. I'm at most a mover."

Lu Yin was puzzled; there were too many things in the universe he couldn't understand.

"Classmate, you and I are actually the same kind of person. I can sense it, which is why I sought you out. Don't worry, I will help you," Yin smiled at Lu Yin.

"Wait until I reach a certain position and then help you in return?" Lu Yin said coolly.

Yin laughed, "I knew you were a smart person. Mutual benefit, neither of us will lose."

Lu Yin mocked, "I don't even know your identity. Why should I cooperate with you?"

Yin shrugged, "You can refuse, but I believe you will be my best partner in the future." With that, Yin turned and left, tossing a piece of paper to Lu Yin before he went. On it were a series of numbers and some names, positions, and background events of people in the Great Yu Empire.

"The universe is cruel. Without you, Earth's future will be bleak. Think about Qingyu. You couldn't kill him in the end, why? To survive in the universe, you can only think of yourself," Yin's voice grew distant.

Lu Yin exhaled, looked at the paper, and put it away.

Dealing with the devil, you never get the better of it. Lu Yin firmly believed this, but who was the devil between him and Yin? Only the future could judge.

What Lu Yin wanted to do now was to cause trouble, the bigger the better. He needed to understand what the identity of the Zishan Prince could achieve in the Great Yu Empire before reaching the Capital Star. Otherwise, he would be unable to move in the Capital Star. If some people dared to act, they should be prepared to lose their hands.

Bang

The door of the bar on the Perseverance was shattered again, drawing the attention of everyone inside. Since the students returned from the trial, the bar door had hardly been safe.

Lu Yin entered the bar and immediately looked at Willow, who was sitting in a corner.

Willow's expression changed when he saw Lu Yin, and he hurriedly tried to run away.

Lu Yin raised his hand, and the Sky-Cleaving Palm shook, pushing back the surrounding students with star energy, shattering tables and chairs. The next moment, a wave of air hit Willow.

Willow was terrified, raising his hand to block. With a bang, he was slammed into the wall, spitting out a mouthful of blood and glaring at Lu Yin through gritted teeth.

No one dared to intervene, not even the soldiers who happened to be patrolling nearby.

Everyone in the bar immediately backed away.

On the second floor, a private room opened, and Huo Xiaoling and Yan Gang walked out, looking down in surprise. What was this guy up to again?

Lu Yin slowly approached Willow, his gaze cold.

Willow looked at Lu Yin in fear, shouting, "What are you doing? This is a spaceship, not a trial. No violence is allowed."

Lu Yin grabbed Willow's neck and lifted him over his head, his voice icy, "Who told you to cause trouble for my people? Speak."

Willow's face turned red. He was one of the strongest in the academy, but he was powerless against the current Lu Yin and didn't want to fight back, "I don't know what you're talking about."

Lu Yin sneered, "I know someone is behind you. You must think I won't kill you, so I'll try. The people behind you would be happy if I killed you. Think about it."

Willow's eyes changed. He was indeed being manipulated to provoke Lu Yin, to show the people of the Capital Star what the so-called Zishan Prince was like. If Lu Yin killed him now, the effect would be a thousand times better than not killing him. It would not only create the image of the Zishan Prince as cruel and foolish but also make his family hostile to the Zishan Prince, uniting more people to achieve their goal. That person would not save him.

Willow thought it through and immediately said, "I'll tell you, I'll tell you. It was Las, Las told me to provoke you."

Lu Yin casually threw Willow aside and left the bar.

Yan Gang looked at Lu Yin's disappearing back, sneering, "Stupid, someone is clearly plotting against him, and he still dares to cause trouble. This person is arrogant."

Huo Xiaoling's eyes flickered, and she tapped on her personal terminal, contacting someone.

At the same time, Xikemaluo, Toluona, and Shaloshu received the news.

"What? He went to Las? Stop him quickly," Xikemaluo shouted angrily, feeling frustrated, "Stupid, too stupid. How can he do this now?"

Shaloshu sneered, "Worse than expected. Is it because he was made the Zishan Prince that he got arrogant? Pitiful country bumpkin."

Toluona shook his head in disappointment, "The young lady must not marry such a person."

Regardless of what others thought, Lu Yin had already arrived outside Las's room, lightly tapping to shatter the corner surveillance camera, and then kicked the door open.

Las seemed to be waiting for him, smirking and formally saying, "What can I do for the Zishan Prince?"

Without a word, Lu Yin stepped forward and kicked him.

Las didn't expect Lu Yin to be so crazy and instinctively dodged, but he encountered Lu Yin's Heavenly Beast Claw. The seven-form Heavenly Beast Claw was more powerful than Las's five-form, and Las couldn't avoid it. His body was directly blasted out of the room, slamming into the spaceship's metal frame, coughing up blood, and shouting, "Savage, you dare to hurt me?"

Lu Yin reached out to grab Las, who shouted and pulled out an energy gun from his spatial ring, firing. Lu Yin easily dodged. Although this energy gun could injure a Realm Explorer, it was only effective against ordinary Realm Explorers. Lu Yin's current combat power was cross-realm, comparable to a Fusion Realm expert.

Seeing Lu Yin getting closer, Las's eyes changed dramatically, "Save me quickly."

Just as Lu Yin was about to attack Las, Mono appeared, and with a bang, a wave of air splashed, pushing Lu Yin back over ten steps. He looked at the other person solemnly.

Mono also retreated several steps, staring at Lu Yin intently.
