Chapter 1216: Altercation

Leader Hong’s eyes narrowed, and he glanced over at Liu Qianjue, a little suspicious. Leader Hong had no idea about what sort of relationship might exist between Lu Yin and the Sword Sect. Could the Sword Sect be behind Lu Yin? No—Leader Hong instantly rejected that possibility. If the Sword Sect was behind Lu Yin, then Lu Yin’s situation would have been much better as the Sword Sect would have never agreed to The Purge in the first place. Since Liu Qianjue had already agreed to the plan, this was obviously not the case.

The next moment, another screen appeared, and it showed a woman in white armor with long hair, but with her features were hidden.

Upon seeing her outfit, Lu Yin instantly realized that this person as someone from the Lingling clan.

“Senior Liu, did you need me for something?” the woman asked. She had a soft voice, but there was a hint of coldness to it, though it was still very pleasant to hear. She was Ling Qiu, the Lingling clan’s matriarch.

Liu Qianjue casually responded, “Just wait a moment.”

Ling Qiu frowned. If Leader Hong possessed both respect and awe for Liu Qianjue, then Ling Qiu merely respected the master of the Sword Sect. She had no fear of the man or his sect; her Lingling clan was not the Blaze Realm.

“Huh? Lu Yin?” Ling Qiu commented in surprise.

Lu Yin was not surprised that the woman had recognized him, and he calmly replied, “This junior is Lu Yin, and you must be the Lingling clan’s matriarch.”

Ling Qiu was surprised to see Lu Yin. “Why are you at the Sword Sect?”

She looked over at Liu Qianjue. “What sort of relationship is there between you two?”

Liu Qianjue replied, “We’ll talk once everyone has gathered.”

Ling Qiu was dissatisfied, but she said nothing further. She looked over at Leader Hong, who smiled and nodded to the matriarch.

Ling Qiu did not care about Leader Hong. In her eyes, the master of the Blaze Realm was not as important as Lu Yin. Although Leader Hong acted like he led Blazing Mist Flowzone’s three powers, the truth was that he only postured and made small moves.

Leader Hong’s eyes grew cold, but he did not speak.

The next person to appear was a lanky old man.

Upon seeing the old man, Liu Qianjue’s attitude grew much more serious. This old man was the master of Chaosgod Mountain, Cang Zhou.

“What has caused Sect Master Liu to contact me at Chaosgod Mountain?” the old man asked in a strange tone. “Are there any changes to The Purge?”

Lu Yin’s heart leaped, and he listened carefully.

Liu Qianjue replied, “There’s a junior who wishes to speak with you. Let’s talk about this once everyone arrives.”

Cang Zhou’s eyes fell onto Lu Yin. “You look familiar. Little guy, who are you?”

Lu Yin smiled lightly. “This junior is Lu Yin.”

Cang Zhou was caught off guard. “I remember you. You’re Lu Yin, the Arbiter who replaced that Nightking Zhenwu and is the leader of the Great Easter Alliance in the Outerverse. How interesting to see that you’re in the Sword Sect. So you’re already aware of The Purge?”

“Let’s talk once everyone arrives. Isn’t it rather tiring to repeat everything for each person?” Liu Qianjue commented.

Cang Zhou sneered, “I’ve never grown tired of cultivating in Chaosgod Mountain, and I only do what I wish to do.”

Liu Qianjue no longer spoke.

Cang Zhou looked back at Lu Yin. “Little guy, what are you doing in the Sword Sect? Did you persuade their sect master to help your Great Eastern Alliance? What did you promise them?”

Lu Yin answered, “Senior, please wait.”

Cang Zhou snorted coldly. “I don’t like to wait. I’m an old man.”

From her own screen, Ling Qiu indifferently said, “His status as the master of the Outerverse is enough for you to wait for him.”

Cang Zhou was unhappy to hear this response, and his eyes snapped over to Ling Qiu. “Girl, why are you talking to your senior? You were still dreaming of your first crush when this old man was roaming the universe.”

Lu Yin’s eye twitched, as those words were quite overbearing.

Ling Qiu glared at Cang Zhou. “I have no respect for the elderly, as they will just die eventually.”

Cang Zhou laughed.

At this time, another screen appeared. However, it did not show a person, but rather a mountain.

Lu Yin was stunned. A mountain? Could a mountain actually use a gadget?

“It’s so lively. Everyone’s here,” the mountain said.

Lu Yin was shocked. Yes, the mountain had spoken. The mountain could actually speak. What the hell was going on?

Liu Qianjue seemed to notice Lu Yin’s confusion, and he quietly said, “This is the tamed beast of the master of Beast Tamers Flowzone’s Divine Hall, Bai Wanshan. He is the guardian of the mountain.”

How did that work? Lu Yin was confused.

“Senior Liu, why did you call for me?” Bai Wanshan asked.

To the side, Cang Zhou was still fighting with Ling Qiu.

Ling Qiu was unable to win the argument against the old man, and she ended the argument by saying, “Old bastard.”

Cang Zhou laughed arrogantly, acting as though he had won the fight. His strength made it clear that Ling Qiu was absolutely not the old man’s opponent, as there was not merely a single generation of difference between the two leaders.

Liu Qianjue grew dissatisfied. “Alright, stop arguing. The Wen family is about to join.”

He then turned to the mountain. “Wait for a bit, and we will discuss things once everyone joins.”

The mountain seemed rather straightforward and did not speak.

Cang Zhou twitched the most out of those gathered. Still, it was clear that his status was just as high as Liu Qianjue’s while the others were all his juniors.

Soon, another screen appeared, and it revealed an old man with a broom. “Senior Liu, what are your orders?”

This old man was Wen Zizai, the Wen family’s patriarch.

Lu Yin realized that the masters of the eight great flowzones were not necessarily dignified experts, and actually, the more powerful the person, the more inconspicuous they tended to become.

Liu Qianjue was a fisherman.

Cang Zhou was a rogue.

As for the Wen patriarch, he was just a janitor.

By appearances, Leader Hong and Ling Qiu behaved more like typical powerhouses, though while the mountain was incredibly impressive, he was not human.

“Everyone is here now.” Liu Qianjue looked at Lu Yin. “If you have something to say, you can say it now.”

Cang Zhou asked, “Everyone’s here? What about Dijiang? And also, that kid Shen Shaohuang hasn’t arrived.”

Liu Qianjue casually replied, “The Daynight clan has almost entirely isolated themselves and are not a part of The Purge. As for the Venom Flowzone, they have no connection to the Outerverse and are also not a part of our plans.”

When Ling Qiu, the Mountain God, Wen Zizai, and Leader Hong heard The Purge being mentioned, they gave Lu Yin and Liu Qianjue strange looks.

The Gateway Plan had been formulated to destroy the Great Eastern Alliance, and Lu Yin was the founder and leader of that alliance.

This was basically having someone present while making plans to eliminate them. What was this all about? Everyone was stunned.

“He is already aware of our Gateway Plan, and he asked me to call everyone for a meeting, as he wishes to say something,” Liu Qianjue said.

Lu Yin faced the gathered people. “This junior asked Senior Liu to call you all.”

Cang Zhou smiled. “Little guy, if you have something to say, then just say it. No matter what you say, The Purge won’t change, and the Great Eastern Alliance will be destroyed, haha.”

Ling Qiu indifferently commented, “We will not touch the Great Yu Empire, but the Great Eastern Alliance cannot continue to exist.”

Wen Zizai stared at Lu Yin with some excitement in his eyes. “You are Lu Yin, and I have long since admired you. You soundly dealt with the Daynight clan, and they’ve even sealed themselves off. You’re very young to have such accomplishments.”

Leader Hong snorted coldly.

The mountain simply stared at Lu Yin.

Lu Yin was facing a great deal of pressure. It could be said that this group of people represented most of the Innerverse. Even the Hall of Honor needed to tread somewhat lightly when dealing with them. This had nothing to do with these people’s strength, but rather how their influence had spread too far and had permeated the Innerverse too thoroughly.

The Innerverse did not have a single expert whose power level exceeded a million while the Hall of Honor had more than just one such powerhouse. However, this did not mean that the Hall of Honor could act however it wished. If that were the case, then the Hall of Honor would have united the Human Domain long ago, and the Innerverse would have been united with the Outerverse.

Lu Yin took a deep breath, raised his head, and looked up at everyone. “This junior knows of your Gateway Plan, and I wanted to speak with you all to discuss the future with you.”

His words left everyone confused.

“What about the future? Have you joined the Starsibyl Sect?” Ling Qiu asked.

Lu Yin smiled and replied, “It is indeed said that the Starsibyl Sect can predict the future. However, I want to speak to you about the future that I see. To put it another way, I want to fight against the future.”

“What do you mean by that?” Leader Hong asked quietly.

Lu Yin looked at the older man. “I, Lu Yin, created the Great Eastern Alliance that you are working to destroy. For this reason, you put your Gateway Plan together. This junior is not one to sit and wait. I can see the future, and if you seniors insist on carrying out your Gateway Plan, then this junior can also see your future, and to be blunt, it’s not good.”

“This is what you wanted to say? Threats? What a joke! You’re but a child—who gave you the balls to threaten us?” Leader Hong shouted angrily.

Everyone else simply stared at Lu Yin.

If another person were in Lu Yin’s place, they would be terrified, but Lu Yin had already encountered many such situations before, and he had even had the courage to mock a Judicial Commissioner during a trial. Thus, there was no need to even consider someone threatening him from a video transmission.

Lu Yin stared back at Leader Hong. “The Blaze Realm lies right next to the Outerverse. When the Innerverse and Outerverse first reconnected, your Blaze Realm sent Monster Chi along with an entire armada to destroy my Great Eastern Alliance. That didn’t end well for you, did it, Leader Hong? Do you feel that you can compare to the Daynight clan? Or do you actually believe that your Blaze Realm surpasses the Daynight clan?”

The arrogant Leader Hong grew furious, and flames billowed up behind him and shot into the sky to eventually shatter a distant planet. At the same time, waves of lava shot into the sky, turning everything red-hot.

Lu Yin simply ignored the man and directed his attention to the others. “What do you seniors think?”

Cang Zhou laughed. The mountain also laughed, followed by Wen Zizai, and finally, Liu Qianjue.

“No doubt, this is quite the unique experience! No junior has ever dared to provoke and threaten all of us at the same time. The times really have changed.” The mountain’s voice was deafening, though he also sounded as though he was speaking quietly.

“Very well, go ahead and deliver your threat,” Wen Zizai said with a smile.

Liu Qianjue calmly sat and began fishing again, apparently ignoring Lu Yin.

Lu Yin’s face grew solemn. “The goal of your Gateway Plan is to slaughter many of the top leaders of the Outerverse who are unwilling to cooperate with the Innerverse. There are a total of 409 people, and the plan is simple. Honestly, I have no way of dealing with this. Despite having the support of Leon’s Armada, as well as Yuan Shi, Eversky Island, the Lan family, and the Sea King’s Dome, I still cannot field a lineup to protect those 409 people. Each of the assassins will be a powerhouse, and I cannot stop so many experts. Once your Gateway Plan commences, it is guaranteed to succeed. Even if I do ask Leon’s Armada and Eversky Island to help me, it’s impossible to stand up to the entire Innerverse at the same time.”

Leader Hong smiled contemptuously.

Wen Zizai calmly stared at Lu Yin.

No one spoke.

There were rules to the universe. A few disciples from Eversky Island were powerful enough to threaten the Innerverse, but that did not mean that they could actually deliver on those threats. There were rules in place to maintain a certain balance, and if that balance broke, then even the Hall of Honor would be affected, and that was not something that would be tolerated.

Lu Yin’s eyes narrowed. “I have to admit that the mastermind who designed this plan is highly intelligent. This junior also believes that, even if it were possible to arrange enough powerhouses to protect all 409 people, it would still be useless, as they can’t be protected continuously. It’s impossible to forever remain vigilant, and although you might be able to stop a thief for a thousand days, he only needs to succeed once, and this is a plan that can be executed at any moment.

“However, you seniors have forgotten something.” At this moment, Lu Yin’s eyes suddenly grew cold and filled with killing intent. His murderous aura caused the surface of the nearby pond to begin boiling even as the air froze over.
