As time passed, more than half a month went by. At last, someone reached the western region of the Outer Universe, where Spiritual Eye Ancestor was stationed, confirmed that Xu San was there, and launched an attack.
Xu San was captured without putting up much of a fight.
Lu Yin stopped Spiritual Eye Ancestor. Xu San had to be captured.
However, Xu San wasn't captured by just one person, but by three. They were all after Xu San, and ended up fighting among themselves. Just as they had initially suspected, their greatest enemy wasn't Primeval Space, but their own people.
Xu San's capture seemed to be a signal. You Ye'er was taken next, followed by Coco and Zhuo Baiye. One after another, they were attacked and captured.
The Six Directions Dojo had captured four people in a row, and Lu Yin had watched it all.
He stepped in when Zhuo Baiye was captured. It wasn't for any other reason than that the person who took her wanted to leave with her immediately. That wasn't acceptable.
He had let Xu San and the others be captured so he could take them all in one fell swoop after their captors revealed themselves, and obtain a great many Lotus Treasures at once. Those people had captured Xu San and the others and wanted to capture even more, so they wouldn't leave this spacetime. That was exactly what Lu Yin needed. The person who was truly supposed to be captured was someone else.
Zhuo Baiye wasn't meant to be among those who were taken.
That person wanted to capture Zhuo Baiye and leave, with no ambition at all. That was obviously unacceptable.
"I want to go," Zhuo Baiye told Lu Yin firmly.
"The situation is complicated. If you go, I can't guarantee your safety,"
