Chapter 1062 (1/2)

Lu Yin was moved as he listened to Ling Que’s words. “Just like Ling Gong?”

“She still hasn’t completely integrated her innate gift,” Ling Que commented. He then paused for a moment as he glared at Lu Yin. “You’re trying to get information from me.”

Lu Yin shrugged. “No, I didn’t even hear that. What did you just say?”

“Is that so?” Ling Que was suspicious.

At that moment, the door opened as a man stepped in the room. “Young Master, your drink.”

Ling Que casually ordered, “Set it here.”

The man walked across the room and set the wine on the table. He was just about to leave when Lu Yin set his hand on the man’s arm and stared at the man in amazement. “It’s actually you?”

Ling Que was puzzled.

The man’s expression changed when he saw Lu Yin. “It’s you?”

Lu Yin smiled. “The universe is so huge, but you just had to show up in front of me. How interesting.”

The man’s face turned a deathly shade of white. He used his strength, trying to pull his arm back, but Lu Yin was much stronger, and the man simply could not move.

Ling Que felt that the situation was rather strange. “Do you two know each other?”

Lu Yin looked at Ling Que. “Is this person someone from your Lingling clan?”

Ling Que shook his head. “I picked him up along the way. He was severely injured when the Sixth Mainland invaded, and when our Lingling clan moved out, we happened to rescue him. Why? Is there a problem?”

“Do you know who he is?” Lu Yin asked.

Ling Que turned to look at the man.

The man gritted his teeth and his expression turned ugly. “Lu Yin, I chased after you back then because I was hired to do so. There’s no grudge between us, so please let me go.”

Lu Yin was amused. “You chased us from Chaos Flowzone all the way to Starfall Sea and you\\\'re the reason two of my seniors are missing. Despite that, you’re telling me that it was all just a misunderstanding? Hmm? Feng Mo?”

The man who had brought the wine in was none other than Feng Mo. In the past, he had been hired by Deep Crimson Hall to kill Lu Yin’s group, and he had forced Lu Yin and the others to take part in the Sea King’s son-in-law selection. If not for this person, Big Pao and Little Pao would have never needed to go into hiding. As it was, Lu Yin still did not know where the two brothers had disappeared to.

Lu Yin had not planned on trying to find this person—after all, the universe was incredibly vast. However, he had never dreamed that the man would actually walk out in front of him.

Ling Que was astonished and he stared at Feng Mo. “You actually chased after this fellow? How stupid! Why didn’t you just kill him?”

Feng Mo’s arm hurt badly, and sweat beaded up on his forehead. He was a Hunter, and he had been ambushed by the Neohuman Alliance’s Specter Clan after leaving the Sea King’s Dome, resulting in him barely escaping with his life to hide in the Starfall Sea. He had believed that he would be fine after that, but he had never expected that the Innerverse and Outerverse would suddenly undergo such incredible changes and that the Sixth Mainland would invade. During the invasion, he had narrowly escaped death once again before finally being rescued by the Lingling clan.

Feng Mo had stayed with the Lingling clan and served Ling Que not out of a personal decision to repay the clan’s kindness, but rather because he had been ordered to do so by the Relentless Slayers. They were greedy and wanted the Lingling clan’s innate gift, so they had ordered Feng Mo to see if he could find out anything. No one had considered that he might run into Lu Yin.

“Young Master, no matter what I did in the past, I am now dedicated to the Lingling clan. Please, save me,” Feng Mo pleaded.

Ling Que looked back at Lu Yin.

Lu Yin explained, “He’s from Chaos Flowzone’s Relentless Slayers. Did you think that he stayed with the Lingling clan simply because he wanted to repay his gratitude?”

Ling Que’s expression changed, and he stared at Feng Mo, bloodlust filling the youth’s eyes. “Didn’t you say that you were from the Starfall Sea?”

Feng Mo started begging, “Young Master, I-”

After saying just a few words, Feng Mo suddenly slapped out at Ling Que, who was only an Explorer. Although Ling Que was incredibly talented, it was difficult to respond to a Hunter’s sudden ambush.

Lu Yin exerted some strength through his right hand, causing Feng Mo to flip over, slam into the floor, and miss his attack. Not only that, but half of the man’s body was also left numb after being thrown to the floor and forced to spit out a mouthful of blood.

Lu Yin looked down at the older man. “Trying to sneak attack someone in front of me? It’s only been a few years since we last saw each other, but it seems that you’ve become even stupider.”

Ling Que coldly stared at Feng Mo, as the Hunter’s sneak attack had nearly succeeded. Feng Mo had attempted to ambush him so that he could distract Lu Yin and escape. How detestable.

“Brother Lu, leave this person to me. I want to see what he’s trying to do with my Lingling clan since he’s been sticking around us,” Ling Que said coldly.

Lu Yin nodded, and he released a bit of force. He used the Overlaying Stacks Path to send a subtle attack through Feng Mo’s arm and into the man’s body, severing the channels inside him and crippling the man. Lu Yin’s hand then relaxed. “I’ll leave him with you. Force out everything about what happened since the start of the Starfall Sea’s events as well as everything concerning my two missing seniors. I want to know if he’s connected to that.”

Ling Que nodded.

Feng Mo’s interrogation proceeded rather smoothly, and before long, Lu Yin was informed of what Feng Mo had experienced after the two parted ways.

“This fellow was actually pursued by the Neohuman Alliance’s Specter Clan, but he didn’t die. How lucky,” Ling Que remarked with a sigh.

Lu Yin looked through the report of what Feng Mo had gone through, reliving those experiences from the past. He knew why Feng Mo had been pursued, as it was all connected to Lu Yin. He had given some orders to Faceless, which was why the people from the Specter Clan had chased after Feng Mo.

It seemed that Lu Yin could indeed impersonate someone from the upper levels of the Specter Clan and give out orders.

As for Big Pao and Little Pao, Feng Mo had never run into them again.

Hold on. Lu Yin seriously checked through the report. “Did he explain how he escaped from the Specter Clan?”

Ling Que hurriedly glanced through that section of the report, and his expression changed slightly.

It definitely was not easy to escape from the Specter Clan, and since Feng Mo had been able to escape, then he should also be able to escape from the Lingling clan. Furthermore, Feng Mo had actually managed to evade the Sixth Mainland while staying in the Starfall Sea.
