Lu Yin simply stared at Wu Yi.
Wu Yi's gaze flickered as he recalled everything that had happened during this time. A lot of it had been strange. Humanity had openly entered Outer Heaven and attacked the Main Dao, competing for the Seventy-two Realms. It was simply unbelievable and impossible to understand.
Did this man not know that the returning masters would be able to destroy Xiang City?
Of course he knew.
No one knew when the masters would return, but this man was acting without a care in the world. That alone was suspicious.
Wang Wen taking away the Master-level power looked, no matter how you saw it, as if he had helped this man rather than given the Main Dao a chance to fight for Outer Heaven.
Could there be something more to it? If so, why hadn't he told Wu Yi?
Lu Yin pressed him. "Answer me. What will the Ink River Clan do?"
Wu Yi's gaze sharpened as he looked at Lu Yin. "If Xiang City can truly establish itself in Outer Heaven, the Ink River Clan will join Xiang City."
"Even if Wang Wen returns?"
"Correct. Even if Wang Wen returns."
Wu Liu was startled. "Ancestor." Wu Yi raised a hand to stop him. This promise was meaningless. If humanity could truly establish itself in Xiang City, then what would Wang Wen's return matter? Even the masters couldn't stop them. But if humanity failed to establish itself, Xiang City would be finished. Naturally, the promise was
meant to protect the Ink River Clan as it stood now.
With the promise in place, Xiang City wouldn't attack the Ink River Realm. Otherwise, Wu Yi suspected that this young man's next target would be the Ink River Realm. After all, it was populated by humans.
