Star Odyssey

Chapter 2891: Exposed

With this thought, Monarch Luo's eyes blazed. "Lord Wei, you forcedto do this."

Lord Wei felt that something was wrong. Luo Shan did not seem to be putting on an act. Could Monarch Mu have really appeared in the Transcendent Universe? But how could he have not noticed anything? Could someone have been scheming against both of them?

"Luo Shan, wait!" Lord Wei wanted to say something, but Luo Shan no longer felt any need to listen to anything Lord Wei said. The Monarch merely wanted to take advantage of Lord Wei's grave injuries, as well as the fact that the Great Sovereign and the other rulers were in seclusion. In fact, he wanted to defeat the Transcendent Universe and replace Lord Wei as the ruler of the universe. Luo Shan was also a part of the Sixverse Association, and he had cto the Transcendent Universe to save Monarch Mu. She had clearly appeared in the universe, which was enough of a justification.

Luo Shan was not stupid, and he had also guessed that there was something wrong with the situation. But regardless of what that problem might be, it was not as important as the current opportunity.

The man let out a roar, and the Transcendent Universe trembled.

Luo Shan instantly attacked Lord Wei, revealing an astonishing level of power.

Tri-colored monarch essence covered the entire Transcendent Universe. "The Monarch’s Domain."

Lord Wei angrily shouted, "Luo Shan, please explain things clearly before attacking!"

"Lord Wei, you captured Little Mu! This fight is to the death!"

Sdistance away, Lu Yin took action. He had used the Enhanced bubble to alter his appearance, and the plof tri-colored monarch essence in his universe was trembling. From it emerged monarch essence, which was very similar to Luo Shan’s, and Lu Yin instantly attacked the hyper-analysis mode.

The Energy Research Group was startled by a sudden alarm.

At the stime, Wen Shi and Cong Si both made their way towards the Energy Research Group from different directions.

In outer space, monarch essence clashed with Lord Wei's manifested thought, and the collision caused the color of the entire Transcendent Universe to change.

Cong Si and Wen Shi both looked up in shock, as the resulting power terrified even them.

"Watch out!"

Tri-colored monarch essence shot towards the two men as though it possessed a mind of its own. But in truth, this attack contained Lu Yin's peerless strength. Neither Wen Shi nor Si Da Die could have imagined that what they thought was a shockwave from Luo Shan's attacks was actually Lu Yin targeting them in secret.

The tri-colored monarch essence blasted the two men away, and they spat out blood as they tumbled through outer space.

Seizing the opening, Lu Yin rushed into the Energy Research Group’s facility. There was actually someone else inside the facility who could use a black energy converter, and there was also equipment using the Bestowal Art to devour any energy that was used nearby.

However, the cultivation technology was useless, as Lu Yin relied on physical strength.

Luo Shan was furious, and he wanted to kill Lord Wei as quickly as possible.

In the Energy Research Group’s facility, Lu Yin ran into the person with the black energy converter, who was an old woman.

The woman was startled by the sight of Lu Yin. "Who are-?"

Lu Yin did not give the woman a chance to finish speaking before he lashed out with a palm strike. The battle force covering his attack made it terrifyingly powerful, and the old woman’s black energy was instantly overwhelmed. Lu Yin made a grabbing motion, and the black energy converter appeared in his hand.

The old woman's face grew pale. She had not even had a chance to do anything before being defeated.

A peak powerhouse whose strength csolely from external forces would always be helpless against Lu Yin. After all, his physical strength could even compete with Zhong Pan’s, the captain of the True God Guard.

Lord Wei noticed the moment the old woman was defeated, and he looked back, an extremely ugly expression on the man’s face. Sure enough, this entire thing was a trap.

There was no hesitation as Lord Wei raced towards the Energy Research Group’s facility.

However, Lord Wei had underestimated Luo Shan. Truthfully, aside from the Great Sovereign herself, everyone in the Sixverse Association had underestimated Luo Shan. He was not at all weak, and he was actually incredibly powerful.

Lord Wei could not break free from the battle against Luo Shan so easily.

"Luo Shan, we’ve been tricked! Someone else has Monarch Mu, and he’s right over there!" Lord Wei had no choice but to expose the Energy Research Group.

It did not matter, as Luo Shan's purpose had already changed. At this moment, he wanted to eliminate the ruler of a universe and conquer the Transcendent Universe. In essence, the Monarch wanted to once again rule a universe. While it sounded absurd, this was actually how he had seized control of the Three Monarchs Universe.

In the Energy Research Group’s facility, Lu Yin broke past every obstacle to find Zi Jing.

When she saw Lu Yin, Zi Jing was very wary. "Who are you?"

"It's me," Lu Yin replied.

Zi Jing was instantly thrilled. "Dao Monarch, you’re finally here!"

Lu Yin moved to Zi Jing's side. "Let's go."

"What about the research here?"

"I’ll destroy it."

Zi Jing grabbed Lu Yin's arm.

At this time, an invisible power appeared. "So it’s you. Lu Yin, you have violated the precepts of the Sixverse Association!"

Lu Yin was startled. How did Lord Wei know it was him?

He instantly looked at Zi Jing, who had turned pale. "Dao Monarch, it wasn’t me!"

"What a pain. Since Lord Wei knows it’s me, then regardless of how things go, this is definitely going to scare many people in the Sixverse Association. There’s no denying that I broke the fundamental rules of the association."

When Luo Shan had worked with the You family to overthrow Lord Wei, his actions had disgusted many people throughout the Sixverse Association, and they had felt the sway about Sovereign Shao Yin.

However, Lu Yin could not worry about such details at the moment, as he first needed to escape.

But while Lu Yin wanted to leave, Lord Wei would not let him do so without a fight.

Manifested thought shattered space, and the ruler of the Transcendent Universe appeared. The man waved a hand towards Lu Yin.

At that moment, Lu Yin felt his thoughts grow clouded, and both his movements and mind seemed to slow. Lord Wei took a step forward and grabbed at Zi Jing.

She was terrified.

At the last moment, a stream of light appeared at Lu Yin's side, and twas reversed by one second.

Lord Wei's expression changed as his movements inexplicably stopped and then were reverted back by a second. With this opportunity, Lu Yin grabbed Zi Jing and fled.

He had noticed that his thoughts had seemed to slow down, which was definitely related to Lord Wei.

This was neither Forgotten Ruins God’s Sit and Forget, nor the Chiliagonist’s method of controlling people with the power of consciousness. In an instant, Lu Yin had felt like an old man at the cusp of death. Even the power in his heart had not been able to resist its effects.

At this moment, Luo Shan arrived.

Three rulers of parallel universes confronted each other.

"Lu Yin, release Zi Jing!" Lord Wei glared at Lu Yin.

Lu Yin was extremely wary of Lord Wei. This person was a sequence powerhouse, and Lu Yin could not grasp Lord Wei’s true power. Sovereign Shao Yin had plotted against the ruler of the Transcendent Universe, and he had even destroyed one of the ruler’s bodies, but only one. There was no way to know how many more bodies Lord Wei had, but at the moment, he was once again in the body of a man.

Lord Wei had only acted out of desperation to guard against Luo Shan, but he had still nearly fallen for this trap.

"Zi Jing is mine," Lu Yin declared.

Lord Wei’s retort was dripping with killing intent. "You have committed a terrible sin! None of the members of the Sixverse Association are allowed to pry into each other's secrets, much less interfere in another universe’s affairs. You already interfered with the Cyclic Universe’s matters in the past, and now you are forcing yourself into my Transcendent Universe. What are you trying to do? Do you really believe that no one in the Sixverse Association can stop you?

"Your Lu family is not invincible!”

Lu Yin stared at Lord Wei. This person's attitude towards Lu Yin was completely different from what he had shown during the Tea Ceremony. This feeling had already manifested during Lu Yin’s last meeting with Lord Wei; just what was going on with this person?

"I simply want to take Zi Jing with me. Who in the Sixverse Association doesn't know that she belongs to me? I received word that you intended to silence Zi Jing, so of course I needed to take action," Lu Yin snapped back.

Lord Wei’s previously calm expression fell. "Nothing but words."

Lord Wei had been so focused on getting Zi Jing back that he had not thought about the current situation. But when confronted with Lu Yin, Lord Wei could not help but wonder why Lu Yin was even present. How did he know about this location? How did he know that Zi Jing had returned to the Transcendent Universe?

Only a handful of people knew about this.

Lord Wei’s eyes flashed. Bai Qian.

He Ran and Cloudflow were both in the Heavens Sect, but in the past, Lord Wei had been so focused on the sequence particle research that he had not paid any attention to those two. After considering the matter, it becclear that Bai Qian had long since served Lu Yin. That was why Lu Yin had taken He Ran away; he had wanted to help Bai Qian take over the Transcendent Universe.

Upon realizing what had happened, Lord Wei looked back at Lu Yin, this twith a much colder expression. Lu Yin had been plotting against the Transcendent Universe for quite stime.

At this moment, Lu Yin looked over at Luo Shan. "I wonder why you’re here, Monarch Luo?"

Luo Shan was afraid of Lu Yin. While the young man was not particularly strong, there was nothing simple about him or his plots. It was clear from Lord Wei’s reaction that he was at a disadvantage against Lu Yin. "Little Mu is in the Transcendent Universe, so I have to find her."

Lu Yin instantly understood, and he turned to look at Lord Wei. "Senior, your scheming is impressive. You dealt with Monarch Mu before anything even happened. Clearly, you were already aware of Monarch Luo and Sovereign Shao Yin’s intentions to help the You family rebel. You must have captured Monarch Mu in an attempt to shake up the Three Monarchs Universe and reduce their strength."

Lord Wei looked frustrated. He had always been the one to strategize and scheme, and he could not help but feel a bit of admiration for Lu Yin at this moment. "Child of the Lu family, I must admit that I admire you. So you were the one to capture Monarch Mu, and then you used her to lure out Luo Shan to give you an opening to meet Zi Jing. This would allow you to achieve your own goals while antagonizing Luo Shan into taking action.

"When the Sixverse Association first cinto contact with the Origin Universe, you were already scheming against my own universe and the Three Monarchs Universe. Even I have to admire your ability to gather information and plan ahead. All of us have all becyour pawns.

"There’s no shin Sovereign Shao Yin losing to you, as he underestimated you too much."

Luo Shan stared at Lu Yin. He was not stupid, and Lu Yin's presence spoke volumes. Besides, it was far more believable for Lu Yin to capture Monarch Mu than Lord Wei. The signs all pointed to Lu Yin being the mastermind behind the scenes.

Lu Yin had already expected such a reaction from Lord Wei when Lu Yin’s hand was exposed, but so what if others knew the truth? People’s self-interest would always outweigh everything else.

"Luo Shan, the Three Monarchs Universe is already gone, but the Transcendent Universe is still here. I will support you in becoming the ruler of the Transcendent Universe," Lu Yin stated solemnly.

Luo Shan's eyes flashed, and a fire blossomed deep in his eyes.

The current Origin Universe was extremely powerful, and the Lu family’s return had raised the Origin Universe to the peak. If the Origin Universe supported the change, then it would not be impossible for Luo Shan to succeed. On the contrary, if Luo Shan wanted to instead go after Lu Yin, he would be up against a terrifying monster, and he would lose everything he had left in the Sixverse Association.

Lord Wei sneered. "You still believe Lu Yin’s words after everything that has happened? Don't forget, Luo Shan—your Three Monarchs Universe was destroyed by him."

Lu Yin shook his head. "Enemies never last forever, as everyone will always prioritize their own interests."

Lord Wei suddenly attacked Lu Yin. "Release Zi Jing!"

Lu Yin felt a bout of vertigo as his thoughts grew sluggish once again. This time, Heaven’s Sight allowed him to clearly see the sequence particles that fell upon him. These sequence particles did not cause any overt harm, but rather slowed his thoughts and his body’s reflexes.

If Lord Wei had mastered sequence particles that produced physical attacks, then Lu Yin would not be afraid. He had already survived Lightning Sequence Particles, even if it was only a small number. However, Lord Wei’s sequence particles were far trickier to deal with. There was also no way that this was the limit of what Lord Wei could do, which meant that there had to be ssort of attack that was used in combination with the sequence particles.

Lu Yin raised a hand, and his bone spur shot out at Lord Wei. This weapon was capable of ignoring all defenses, and it contained an incredible amount of voidforce energy.

There was a bang as the bone spur slammed into a wave of energy. It was tri-colored monarch essence.

Luo Shan stared at Lu Yin. "Snap out of it!"

Lu Yin's pupils shrank sharply as he stared at Luo Shan in disbelief. How had that happened? How had he attacked Luo Shan?

"Dao Monarch!" Zi Jing exclaimed.

A beam of light suddenly appeared in front of Lu Yin's eyes, stabbing at his forehead. This was Lord Wei’s killing attack. Lu Yin was not only facing the attack in front of him, but also similar attacks shooting at him from every direction. Clearly, his mind was being manipulated again. Not even reversing twith Lightstream would allow Lu Yin to avoid all of these attacks. With no other choice, at the very last moment, Lu Yin pulled out Evernight and entered the card.

At the place where Lu Yin had just been standing, Evernight disappeared into the void.

Lord Wei raised a hand and pressed down. His manifested thought suppressed the void with a startling sound, and Evernight suddenly reappeared. Lu Yin emerged from the card, and he retreated as far as possible while staring at Lord Wei with open fear.
