《Star Odyssey》Chapter 562: Act
Advertisement
It was no wonder why Tyrial had discussed the parallel universe theory with Lu Yin so patiently earlier. Lu Yin had thought that it was somewhat strange, as this person had been far too patient with him. It turned out that the Hunter had merely been stalling for time.
Tyrial feigned ignorance. “What? Elder Qiuyu is on her way?”
He then quickly turned to Lu Yin. “Student Lu, an Enlighter’s coming! I think that you guys should leave soon.”
Lu Yin’s eyes narrowed as he filled them with star energy to observe rune lines. He could see that three Hunters had already arrived, but they had all hidden themselves. If he retreated at this time, then Nightqueen Qiuyu would definitely stir up trouble in the Great Yu Empire.
“Go? Go where? If Nightqueen Qiuyu is coming, then so be it,” Lu Yin replied indifferently.
Tyrial’s heart raced, as Lu Yin was even more confident than what he had expected. The Nightking clan’s Enlighters were not comparable to an average Enlighter, and yet this youth still remained fearless.
Clap clap clap!
Applause suddenly rang out, and everyone looked over.
A beautiful, middle-aged lady slowly stepped out and smiled at Lu Yin. “It’s no wonder why you’re the strongest Limiteer in the universe. You have spirit.”
Around them, the Daynight clan members all bowed in unison. “Madam.”
Tyrial moved forward to explain. “Madam Meilan, I’m sorry to bother you. Student Lu was only emotional at this time. He didn’t mean anything by his words.”
The middle-aged beauty was none other than Madam Meilan, otherwise known as Meilan Daynight. She was a Hunter with a power level of 160,000, which also meant that she was the strongest Hunter in the space station.
Madam Meilan looked at Lu Yin appreciatively, completely ignoring Tyrial. “Student Lu, I’ve been looking forward to meeting you. I am Meilan Daynight.”
Lu Yin nodded. “Has madam rested well?”
She smiled coyly. “You’re young, and you don’t have a small temper either. Student Lu, despite everything, I’m your senior and also a woman.” She approached Lu Yin, and her scent flooded his nostrils.
Lu Yin’s eyes narrowed. “Madam, I suggest that you don’t approach me, as I don’t know what I might do.”
The surrounding Daynight clan members heard Lu Yin’s words and became furious.
Madam Meilan stopped in front of him and raised a hand, indicating for them to hold their wrath back. She looked at Lu Yin with interest. “Is Student Lu looking for me for a particular reason?”
Lu Yin turned to look in one direction. “I want to meet Tang Si.”
“Is there some enmity between Tang Si and Student Lu? I had forgotten earlier, but Student Lu participated in the Outerverse’s trial and visited Shenwu Continent then,” Madam Meilan said calmly, though the shock she was experiencing in her heart was very intense. The direction that Lu Yin had looked in was exactly where Tang Si was. How could he know? It could not be a coincidence.
At this moment, the mysteriousness of Lu Yin had intensified in Meilan Daynight’s mind. It was no wonder why this youth had been able to kill an Enlighter, as he possessed truly extraordinary methods.
“You don’t need to worry about the reason—just let me see him. Rest assured, I won’t harm him,” Lu Yin responded indifferently.

Meilan Daynight muttered to herself before replying, “Alright, we must give Student Lu some face.” After that, she had the various Daynight clan members who were surrounding Lu Yin back off and ordered someone bring Tang Si over.
Hidden in the darkness were two other Hunters that continued to stare at Lu Yin. Lu Yin looked at them. “Madam, I wish to speak to Tang Si alone, so I hope that no one will be watching us.”
Madam Meilan smiled and had the other two Hunters back away as well. As for Tyrial, he similarly left. Lu Yin was disgusted with the commander of the space station by this point, but he did not express it. Since this person was overseeing the space station, then it was possible that he could still be of use in the future.
Tang Si came out. He first saw the beautiful and heroic looking Wendy Yushan and was astounded by her beauty as well as her imposing manner. After that, he looked at Lu Yin. He had been wearing his universal armor when he entered the space station, and only now did he remove it.
Tang Si was astounded. “You- you’re Lu Seven?”
Wendy Yushan’s brows lifted up and looked at Lu Yin strangely. Lu Seven?
Lu Yin looked at Tang Si. “It’s been a while.”
Tang Si’s expression was complex, as he had not thought that he would see Lu Yin here. Before, at the Tower of Resonating Light, this person had tossed Zhanlong Daynight to him before leaving, but that had been two years ago!
“You’re from the Daynight clan?” Tang Si was amazed.
Lu Yin shook his head. “You already know my identity, so there’s no need to question me.”
“Why did the Daynight clan allow me to see you? If you’re not with them, then there’s no reason for them to allow us to meet.” Tang Si was puzzled.
Lu Yin’s lips curled up. “It wasn’t up to them. If I wanted to meet you, then we’ll meet.”
Tang Si’s eyes flashed as he sized Lu Yin up and down. After two years, despite the fact that Lu Yin was still a Limiteer, his strength had undergone a complete transformation, but unfortunately, Tang Si was not at a level where he could perceive such a change.
“You should know about the agreement that I established with the Reverent King, and I’ve sought you out to verify some things. Is the agreement still active? Also, now that he has gained outside assistance in the form of the Daynight clan, has the Reverent King forgotten about me?” Lu Yin stared at Tang Si and carefully enunciated every word.
Tang Si quietly answered, “My lord has not forgotten about you. You were given a decade to fulfill the agreement, and that promise has only been made with you.”
Lu Yin’s gaze softened. “How’s the situation on Shenwu Continent?”
Tang Si did not conceal anything, and his reply repeated what Lu Yin had heard from Zhanlong Daynight.
“How is she doing?” Lu Yin looked around before asking softly, his tone becoming complex as he spoke.
Tang Si softly replied, “Good, but quite a bit skinnier.”
Over the last two years, the two had not had a single chance to see each other, and Lu Yin was not entirely confident that Ming Yan still carried the same feelings that she once had. Although a lady from a conservative ancient society was unlikely to be unfaithful, time had passed, and there would likely be even longer periods of absence in the future.

This was why Lu Yin had been apprehensive when he asked about her. He had been afraid that he would not hear the answer he wanted.
Lu Yin fell silent.
Wendy Yushan stared at him with a puzzled face.
After a while, Lu Yin spoke out quietly again. “Help me tell the Reverent King that I hope that he will not forget our agreement of ten years. I can promise that it will not take all ten years. It will be no more than five years before I can allow Shenwu Continent to step into the universe. I hope that the scene I don’t wish to see won’t occur.”
Tang Si agreed to Lu Yin’s request.
“Also, don’t place too much hope in the Daynight clan. The Innerverse and Outerverse have been separated, so the Innerverse can no longer intervene. As long as Shenwu Continent relies on the five sealing planets, it won’t be difficult for it to defend itself,” Lu Yin commented.
Tang Si was astonished. “The Innerverse and Outerverse are isolated from each other?”
“You didn’t know?” Lu Yin was stunned.
Tang Si shook his head. “No, when did this happen?”
“It was a while ago,” Lu Yin replied.
Tang Si’s eyes flickered, and nobody could tell what he was thinking.
Lu Yin frowned. These people had deliberately kept Tang Si in the dark, and they had used the Innerverse’s power to coerce a cooperative relationship from Ming Zhaoshu. Now that Tang Si knew that the Innerverse and Outerverse were cut off from each other, would the Daynight clan still allow him to leave?
After considering this, Lu Yin immediately summoned Tyrial. “Senior, please send Tang Si back to Shenwu Continent.”
Tyrial was placed in a difficult position. “Student Lu, that’s not acceptable. Nightqueen Qiuyu specifically said she wanted to meet with him, and if I let him go-”
Lu Yin cut him off. “I will take all responsibility for what happens next.”
Tyrial still refused to comply.
Lu Yin’s eyes flashed and turned cold. He suddenly put his universal armor back on and pointed the gun at Tyrial’s forehead. “Senior, I don’t want to force you, but I hope that you can send him back to Shenwu Continent and guarantee his safety. Otherwise, your brain’s going to disappear.”
Tyrial was overwhelmed. He felt a fatal danger coming from the gun pointed at his head. The feeling of having someone else firmly hold his life and death in their hands made him feel very desperate. Ever since he had broken through to the Hunter realm, he had only felt like this against an Enlighter.
At this moment, he realized how Lu Yin had killed the Enlighters.
Since Topmist had also been aware of the gun, Lu Yin no longer intended to conceal its existence, especially since he no longer had any need to. The power of his gun was not fixed, and he could upgrade it so long as he had enough funds. He decided that, when he returned to Zenyu Star, he would ask Madam Nalan for some more funds and then upgrade the gun several more times.
Additionally, the Yu Secret Art perfectly complemented the gun’s abilities. As long as an Enlighter was not foolish, they would not casually challenge Lu Yin. His goal during this visit was to showcase his dominance.
Tyrial was cowed by Lu Yin, so he sent Tang Si back to Shenwu Continent.
Meilan Daynight and the few other Hunters appeared with the intention of stopping him, but after Lu Yin blew one of the Hunters’ heads off, no one dared to move.
The bullet had been fired away from the Hunter, but it had been redirected by Wendy Yushan with the Yu Secret Art straight through the Hunter’s skull.
This event shocked everyone.
Although Lu Yin felt it was a pity to waste one of his bullets on a Hunter, this shot had been necessary. Otherwise, he would have been surrounded by the Hunters.
Meilan Daynight stared at Lu Yin. “Student Lu, Nightqueen Qiuyu wishes to meet with Mister Tang Si. Our Daynight clan has a collaborative agreement that we need to discuss with the Reverent King, so we’ll naturally let our guest take his leave after the meeting. There’s no need to rush things.”
“I don’t like wasting my breath. Either send him to Shenwu Continent’s Reverent King’s Residence, or…” Lu Yin pointed the gun at Tyrial. “You’re next. Choose.”
Tyrial’s face went pale. “Student Lu, I’ll send him over right now.”
Lu Yin smiled. “Don’t try tricks. I have my own ways of knowing whether or not he gets to the Reverent King’s estate safely.”
Tyrial’s expression changed, and he nodded. He looked at Madam Meilan and the others and then raised his hand to tear apart the void to send Tang Si back.
Lu Yin was very familiar with this scene, as this was what he had seen when he had been sent to Shenwu Continent himself. He still remembered facing Ming Zhaotian’s attack while traveling to the continent.
However, at this time, Ming Zhaotian didn’t have the luxury of supervising the five sealing planets as he was currently preoccupied with Ming Zhaoshu.
“You really have a way to know if he makes it back to the Reverent King’s Estate safely?” Wendy Yushan raised her doubts.
Lu Yin laughed. “Of course not.”
“Then aren’t you afraid that they’ll send him to Ming Zhaotian instead of the Reverent King?” She was puzzled.
Lu Yin calmly replied, “It doesn’t matter where he’s sent. The important thing is that he will let the entire Shenwu Continent know that the Outerverse and Innerverse have been cut off from each other. Whether he tells this to Ming Zhaotian or Ming Zhaoshu, it will still be beneficial to me. Once either party gets a hold of this news, they’ll spread the news throughout the continent as a way of boosting the native people’s morale. As long as he survives the trip to the continent, I’ll have succeeded.”
Wendy Yushan nodded and didn’t speak any further.
Lu Yin had left out a detail. It would be alright even if Tang Si didn’t survive the journey to the continent. This was because the rune lines that he had seen on the five sealing planets represented a power that could not be breached even by an Enlighter with a power level of 200,000. Shenwu Continent was very safe for now.
Lu Yin was wishing for Shenwu Continent’s safety so that he would have ample time.
After Tang Si was sent off, Lu Yin lowered his gun, and Tyrial hurriedly backed away. He stared at Lu Yin, both apprehensive and furious at how he had just been treated.
Lu Yin felt helpless. “My apologies, Senior.”
Tyrial looked at Lu Yin. After a moment, he grudgingly said, “The young will always surpass the old.”
