Chapter 475: Lu Yin’s Methods (1/2)

Before she stepped out of the Starfall Sea, she had already known that this journey would not be dangerous, because no one would dare to harm the Sea King's daughter. However, when she saw a scene of life and death for the first time in her life, she felt a little panicked, and was scared as well. This was also the first time she appeared to be completely lost. Did these people truly deserve to die? What about their families? The moment they faced death must have been agonizing for them! Many thoughts flew through her mind.

Lu Yin did not speak with her. Instead, he set a course for Frostwave Weave, and they soon started speeding towards their destination.

One day later, Hai Qiqi looked at Lu Yin seriously. “You don’t have even a single ounce of hesitation?”

Lu Yin looked out at outer space. “Once, yes. Now, no.”

“Why? Did you become numb to it?” Hai Qiqi could not help herself from asking.

Lu Yin looked at her. “Once you’ve experienced death, you’ll become the same. Can you imagine being seen as white meat by others?”

“White meat?” Hai Qiqi was lost.

Lu Yin’s lips curled up disdainfully. “Food, for human consumption.”

Hai Qiqi’s gaze changed, and she looked at Lu Yin in shock. She had never imagined that the universally famous Lu Yin had lived through such an experience, and she had never expected such a dark matter to exist in the universe.

“You’ve spent your entire life in the Sea King’s Dome and have the protection of the Sea King, so no one in the entire universe will dare to provoke you. You’ve never seen death, so you have no worries, and you’re even so innocent as to assume that most people in the universe live similar lives. In reality, the universe is cruel. Do you think that those people never thought that they could die? The moment they left their homes, they had already mentally prepared themselves to die. Each one of them had hands stained with the blood of countless people…”

Hai Qiqi silently listened on, as she had never heard Lu Yin speak so seriously before, and she had seen the true side of the universe for the first time.

If not for the Sea King, Lu Yin would have no interest in teaching this girl about such things. He hoped that he would not corrupt her with his personal perspective. However, his perspective was quite normal, and he did not wantonly kill others either. He had his own bottom line and righteousness; he was just slightly addicted to money.

After he had spoken on the subject for a while, Hai Qiqi leaned on her seat and looked at the heavens with a deep look.

“Seventh Bro, congratulations. You’ve dragged a girl onto the wrong path,” the Ghost Monkey said with a snigger.

“Lu Yin, I’m going to ask you a very serious question, and you must answer me honestly,” Hai Qiqi suddenly solemnly said as she turned around.

Lu Yin nodded, and seriously replied, “Ask away.”

“When we get to the Great Yu Empire, have you thought of which places you’ll take me to sightsee?” Hai Qiqi asked earnestly.

Lu Yin was stumped. “You’ve already come to terms with things?”

“With what?” Hai Qiqi blinked.

“You just saw someone die for the first time, and it was a lot of people at that,” Lu Yin reminded her.

Hai Qiqi proudly replied, “I’m the Sea King's daughter! I was born as an elite among elites, so I’m different from a commoner like you. Do I need to come to terms?”

“Weren’t you just thinking about everything I told you?”

“Yes, I’m also thinking about who has such poor eyesight as to treat you as white meat. Food is chosen for its smell, looks, and taste. You don’t pass a single bit of that criteria.”

Lu Yin was speechless. “Actually, there’re many cruel facts about the universe. Let me share them with you one by one.”

“There’s no need, as nothing is crueler than being forced to deal with you. Hurry up and think about where you’ll take me to play. Otherwise, I’ll tell Father that you have a mistress,” Hai Qiqi threatened.

Lu Yin realized that he was losing control of this brat. He had assumed that committing homicide in front of her would subdue her and cause her to behave better. But now, he had a suspicion that the event had actually intensified her mischievousness.

Days later, in Grandtop Weave, an important heir of the Nine Stacks Sect was killed by an independent cultivator when the sect was sneak attacked by a group of them.

Another power’s headquarters in Woori Weave suffered at the hands of a similar group as well.

In Russel Weave, a transport spacecraft was destroyed, and all the supplies that it had been carrying vanished. The culprits were similarly proven to be independent cultivators.
