Chapter 410: Human Nature (2/2)
They were not too far apart, and Lu Yin could clearly see their faces were filled with hatred and loathing.
However, they soon had no time to bother with Lu Yin. The Money Bomb’s attack had not only dispatched the Cruiser, but also damaged the roof of the small spacecraft, which was now continuously trembling. It didn’t take long for the roof to start breaking down and the spacecraft to slow down.
Lu Yin felt no sympathy for them. If that Cruiser had not attacked him, then he would not have acted against them. These people were the kind to sacrifice others to ensure their own safety. Even if there had been no animosity between them before, their captain’s death could not pardon them.
The small spacecraft gradually fell behind, and Lu Yin turned around to take back control of the spacecraft as the monkey merged back into his arm.
Suddenly, the spacecraft quivered, and Lu Yin looked up. There was another person atop his spacecraft. Unexpectedly, there had been more than one Cruiser.
This person tightly held onto Lu Yin’s spacecraft, as a Cruiser’s speed was much slower than a radiant-grade spacecraft. This man intended to escape by tagging along with Lu Yin’s spacecraft.
“Seventh Bro, look! The storm is slowing down!” the monkey yelled.
Lu Yin turned around and saw that the storm was indeed diminishing. The small spacecraft behind him was right about to be engulfed by the storm. Even though it had not been swallowed yet, it still would not be able to escape before the storm completely dissipated.
There was a rumble as the Cruiser atop Lu Yin’s Aurora slammed his palm against the roof, causing the spacecraft to slow down.
Lu Yin was furious, as this person even wanted to use his spacecraft as a sacrifice in order to buy more time for their own small spacecraft to escape.
“Seventh Bro, slaughter him!” The monkey was also enraged.
Lu Yin placed his palm against the spacecraft’s roof, and a dark-gold radiance emerged from his palm. With the addition of his battle force, Thirty Stacks loudly burst forth. The radiant-grade spacecraft was sturdy enough to withstand the Cruiser’s attack, but Lu Yin’s Thirty Stacks passed through the metal, the powerful vibration squarely striking the Cruiser.
The Cruiser only felt the approach of an enormous strength, and he was almost unable to withstand it. His internal organs were painfully jostled about as he stared at the spacecraft in shock. A Limiteer actually possessed the strength to injure a Cruiser; there were not many such people in the entire universe. Since he had already ended up provoking such a person, he had to follow through and make sure that the person in this spacecraft did not survive.
Through the roof of the Aurora, Lu Yin and that Cruiser traded blows. Eventually, the roof was unable to withstand the force of these Cruiser-level attacks, and a crack appeared.
“Seventh Bro, stop fighting! The spacecraft can’t take anymore,” the monkey warned.
Lu Yin felt helpless, as this opponent was not easily dealt with. After all, this person was a Cruiser with a power level of over 50,000.
The exchange of blows between the two caused the spacecraft to slow down considerably, and it was soon equal in position to the small spacecraft, before slowly falling behind.
Those in the small spacecraft relaxed. As long as Lu Yin’s spacecraft was swallowed, it would buy some more time for them, which would hopefully be enough for them to escape.
That Cruiser panted heavily, and with one leap, he appeared on the roof of the small spacecraft. He looked at Lu Yin with an intense expression filled with fear and stress.
A Limiteer who can take on a Cruiser. He could only think of a few names who was capable of this in the entire universe, and even if this person was not one of them, he would still become somebody of great influence in the future, not just some nameless nobody. Since he had provoked such a person, this Limiteer had to be killed. Otherwise, there would be no end to his troubles in the future.
Everything had happened too quickly, to the point where Lu Yin had not even found the opportunity to threaten his opponent with his many titles and high status. However, under such circumstances, such threats would hold no weight since it was a matter of exclusive survival. Even if the Ten Arbiters themselves took revenge for him, that would be a future matter. So in the case, Lu Yin’s status could not save him.
The crack atop Lu Yin’s spacecraft spread even more, and his spacecraft slowed down another notch.
“We’re screwed! We’re going to be swallowed! Doomed! My Celestial Ice Phoenix Clan, my harem!” the monkey shouted in a grieving voice.
Lu Yin clenched both of his fists and stared at the oncoming storm. He then gritted his teeth and turned to stare at the small spacecraft. He shattered his spacecraft’s roof with a single punch, and with the help of his spacecraft, used Flash to close in on the small spacecraft with his extreme speed. He then struck out with a palm.
The people within the small spacecraft were not bothered, as there was a Cruiser with them.
The Cruiser watched Lu Yin’s palm attack and did not dare to be careless. He struck out with all his strength.
Normally, it would not be easy for Lu Yin to deal with such a person due to the tremendous difference in their power levels. However, at this moment, something appeared in Lu Yin’s palm: Progenitor Wushang’s hide.
When the Cruiser saw it, his mind was ferociously scrambled, and he directly fainted without the slightest sign of resistance. This was the power of Progenitor Wushang.
Lu Yin’s palm had never been intended to cause mutual destruction. Rather, he wanted to use this small spacecraft to escape. He casually kicked the Cruiser into the storm and watched as the storm devoured both his spacecraft and the Cruiser. He panted heavily, as the storm grew slightly smaller. He felt like he could actually escape.
However, not everything always goes according to plan. His attack with the Money Bomb had damaged the small spacecraft too severely, and the roof was completely shattered, causing both the small spacecraft and Lu Yin to be swallowed by the storm next. The instant after, the universe turned silent once more, and the storm vanished without a trace.
Days later, in Astral-8, Feng Shang blankly watched the news from Tempest Flowzone and saw that a storm had emerged on that route. He immediately tried to call Lu Yin, as the emergence of the storm had occurred not long after Lu Yin had called.
However, he was unable to get in contact with Lu Yin.
