Lu Yin admitted that he was tempted. Hehe Old Guy had been certain from the very beginning that he would help.
"I'd like to help you. Even without any other conditions, the rewards for the battle missions alone would be enough to get me involved. But the rewards are enough to make me act—not enough to buy my life."
"Who wants your life?" Da Mao snapped.
Lu Yin remained calm. "Anyone capable of being your opponent must be a top-tier powerhouse. Eight Colors wouldn't send you to your deaths. Even if you badly wound your opponents and find out what they can do, I'd still be in danger when I took over. At the very least, with Karma Restraint in place, you can't actually beat your opponents half to death. I'd have to face enemies with at least half your strength."
"You're so powerful, and I'm not confident I could handle even half of you. Getting involved would be suicide."
"You have Instant Movement, karma, and all sorts of other methods. We'll help you plan your approach," Da Mao said.
Lu Yin shook his head. "It's still too risky. I can look for Human Civilization at my own pace, and I'm confident I can handle Lan Meng's opponent. Killing two of the Eight Elders and earning the rewards for two four-star missions is enough for me."
"What exactly do you want?" Da Mao barked.
Hehe Old Guy spoke leisurely. "I'll give you one chance to touch the Main River of Time."
The air suddenly grew still.
Lu Yin stared at the portal, thinking he must have misheard.
Lan Meng also gazed at the portal in a daze.
I'll give you one chance to touch the Main River of Time.
That was Hehe Old Guy's offer.
The Main River of Time
