Chapter 416: Mister Mu (1/2)

Everyone stared foolishly at the scene, and then they looked in another direction. A unique spacecraft flew up, and the small blade had shot out from within that vessel.

“That’s the Lingling clan’s spacecraft.”

“The Lingling clan? That terrifying clan? That means… Was that blade the legendary Que’s Mighty Slash?”

“That’s right. That blade isn’t something that would come from an Explorer, which means it’s user is in the Limiteer realm. However, it was able to defeat two elite Explorers in an instant. Aside from that person, who else could accomplish such a thing?”

In the heavens, the man and the woman looked at each other in agony. They had given their all in this battle, but both of them had been defeated by someone else in an instant. What’s more, they hadn’t even been able to see the other person’s face.

On Nightking Planet, Nightqueen Yanqing looked at her screen and incessantly replayed that exact scene, visibly moved by what she had seen. “He actually came. That’s right, that’s Ling Que. He’s here!”

A member of the Daynight clan who was behind her was puzzled. “Que’s Mighty Slash? Sounds familiar.”

Nightqueen Yanqing’s lips perked up. “In the current universe, there are only three people in the younger generation who can be truly considered to be unequalled Limiteers: the Cosmic Sea’s Ye Xingchen, the Ten Arbiters Council’s Mu Rong, and the Lingling clan’s Ling Que. Que's Mighty Slash is Ling Que’s battle technique.”

That Daynight clam member was shocked. “I remember now! This blade once beheaded five Explorers, and one of them was even strong enough to challenge the Top Hundred Rankings. So this is Ling Que?”

Nightqueen Yanqing nodded with an excited look on her face; she had invited Ling Que herself. Her objective was very simple—to suppress Lu Yin. To her, Lu Yin was an unremovable stain on her brilliant life, as well as that Zhanlong Daynight. Unfortunately, Zhanlong had gone missing in the Shenwu Continent, or else she would have invited Ling Que to teach both of them a lesson.

Fortunately, Lu Yin would definitely appear at this gathering since he had been invited. Everyone praised Lu Yin as an unequaled Limiteer, but she had learned from her brother, Arbiter Zhenwu, that Thirty Stacks was merely the publicized record left behind by the Divine Fist. Those who were truly unequaled would not stop at just Thirty Stacks, and Ye Xingchen, Mu Rong, and Ling Que had all received the Ten Arbiters’ recognition of truly being unequaled Limiteers.

“Ling Que, Ling Que, I love you! Ling Que, Ling Que, you’re the best!”

“Ling Que, Ling Que, I love you! Ling Que, Ling Que, you’re the best!”

…

Cheers sounded out from one spacecraft in particular. The vessel carried a group of pretty girls who were gorgeously dressed, and they were all dancing about and shouting excitedly.

This scene caused the crowd to be taken aback; were these groupies?

Ling Que’s appearance at Nightking Planet caused quite an uproar. The Lingling clan was based within the Spirit Seal Flowzone, and they rarely interacted with outsiders. Their race had an incomparable innate gift which caused them all to be arrogant, but it also meant that they were so powerful that not even the Daynight clan would lightly provoke them.

Ling Que was one of the strongest Limiteers in the younger generation, but he had always maintained a low profile. No one thought that he would appear at Nightking Planet for this gathering.

Some guessed that his appearance was related to Lu Yin since there were only four unequaled Limiteers throughout the entire universe’s present younger generation. Lu Yin was one of them, so it was normal for Ling Que to take an interest in him.

Due to Ling Que’s appearance, more invited youths started heading towards Nightking Planet, and many uninvited people gathered in the Daynight Flowzone, hoping to witness the potential battle between Ling Que and Lu Yin.

In Astral-8, Xi Yue looked for Feng Shang, as she wanted to invite him to head over to the Daynight Flowzone’s Nightking Planet with her.

However, she was turned down by Feng Shang, and he refused to budge on this issue.

Xi Yue was speechless, but she nonetheless headed off for the Daynight Flowzone on her own.

Feng Shang watched Xi Yue’s departing figure and sighed. Everyone was looking forward to Lu Yin’s battle with Ling Que, but only he knew that Lu Yin wouldn’t show up since he had been swallowed by a storm. His odds of surviving that encounter were just too low.

Meanwhile, Lu Yin slept for two days straight, and his brain became a little less fuzzy when he woke up. Afterwards, he started climbing towards the three peaks in the distance.

He thought about it for a brief moment before gritting his teeth and resolving himself to continue climbing. He chose the middle peak since, in general, it was more likely for the most important feature to be at the center.

He pressed both hands against the slope of the middle peak, and the oppressive pressure swept over him as the pressure on his spiritual force increased once again. At this moment, even Lu Yin found it difficult to resist the pressure, and his forehead beaded up with sweat. He gritted his teeth; he had to climb up to the top of this peak no matter what.

One day later, Lu Yin’s eyes had gone slack; the pressure was too much for him. He had no choice, so he began to recite the Stonewall Scriptures to resist the pressure as he climbed.

One day, two, three… five days. At this moment, Lu Yin had been unconscious for an entire day, and he was moving on pure instinct. After nearly a month of climbing, his body had developed an instinctual habit to climb, even though his consciousness had faded.

At that moment, if Lu Yin suddenly became clear-headed and looked around, he would not see the mountain in front of him anymore. He had reached the peak.

With a thump, Lu Yin finally arrived at the peak. His eyes were only open by a slit, but he seemed to see a figure in front of him. However, he could not remain conscious, and he slumped down to the ground, completely unconscious.

After he lost consciousness, the nearby figure gradually approached him. A scholarly and gentle-looking middle-aged man appeared with both hands clasped behind his back. He calmly looked at Lu Yin and then slowly bent down and waved, causing the clothes on Lu Yin to be shredded apart.

He looked at Lu Yin’s back in amazement. “What a seal! Something that belongs to neither five nor six. Could it be-”

He suddenly stopped speaking, stood up, walked to the edge of the peak, and looked at the gold radiance in the distance, but he still remained silent.
