Babata: Wait, Why Was Luo Feng Siding With an Outsider?

"Who? Who's talking?"

Babata immediately grew wary. He knew the voice came from Luo Feng's Communication Watch, but he hadn't noticed how it got there.

Chen Yi wasn't worried in the slightest.

He was using the Cloud Raising Mirror's "virtual space," the Yunmo Star Inheritance Space, to transmit his message. Since this virtual space was built upon the Cloud Raising Mirror,

no existence would be able to detect him.

Unless the other party was stronger than the Cloud Raising Mirror's concealment ability. According to the mirror, even Reverse Time and Space couldn't detect it; any information an investigator sought would appear in a form the investigator considered reasonable.

"My name is Yun. I've been the one nurturing Luo Feng all this time. I've also been keeping an eye on some of the geniuses on this planet," "Senior Yun" briefly introduced himself.

"Babata, Senior Yun isn't a bad person. He's helped me a lot, and his strength is terrifying. I found you with Senior Yun's help too," Luo Feng immediately explained. He wasn't afraid that Babata would get angry; he was afraid Babata would anger Senior Yun.

In Luo Feng's eyes,

Senior Yun had been able to find Babata's Yunmo Star Ship inheritance, while Babata had been completely unaware of Senior Yun's existence.

In terms of strength,

Senior Yun was definitely above Babata.

Hearing this, Babata asked, "A fellow cultivator of geniuses? You want to nurture Luo Feng too, then have him do something for you?"

"No, no, no. I don't need Luo Feng to do anything for me. I'm just terribly bored, and these few geniuses on this planet are indeed quite good, so I casually gave them some treasures, that's all," Senior Yun said offhandedly.

The wariness in Babata's heart did not fade. The Meteorite Ink Star inheritance soul seal had already fused with Luo Feng, so there was no possibility of choosing a second inheritor.

If this mysterious "Yun" really wanted to fight him for Luo Feng,

then he did indeed have to take it seriously.

So Babata probed,

"What did you mean by what you said just now?"

"What did I do wrong in nurturing geniuses?"

"And as for resurrection through Reverse Time and Space... I've only heard of such things myself. They say that even if those Universe Country Lords die, the true mighty figures of the Human Race can bring them back to life."

"The Ganwu Country Lord is one example."

"I heard he was resurrected several times... But my master didn't live through that era either. He only heard the rumors."

"Leaving resurrection through Reverse Time and Space aside, let's talk about how you nurture geniuses." "Senior Yun's" voice rang out, and Chen Yi continued his disguise. "You're too rigid. You only think about improving Luo Feng, but you don't know how to make the most of the Yunmo Star Inheritance."

"This planet is far beyond what you imagine."

"I wonder if you've heard of the Yan God Race? This planet can give rise to a race no less formidable than the Yan God Race!"

"On Earth right now, there's Hong, who mastered a domain at Planetary Level; Thunder God, who's close to mastering a domain at Planetary Level; and Luo Feng and Chen Yi, two Spirit Reader geniuses."

"You could easily pass some of Meteorite Ink Star's inheritances on to them."

"Bring them under Meteorite Ink Star's banner too."

"Yet you only want to nurture Luo Feng."

"Tell me, isn't there something seriously wrong with how you've handled this?"

Babata was somewhat angry when he first heard this, but Yun had mentioned Hong. Earth did have Hong, who had mastered a domain at Planetary Level.

He couldn't help taking that seriously.

In particular, Yun had said that he could bring Chen Yi, Hong, and Thunder God into Meteorite Ink Star. Babata's eyes lit up at once.

"That's right!"

"Meteorite Ink Star has warrior inheritances at the Undying level too. Using them to nurture these low-level warriors would be easier than easy. I can concentrate the main resources on Luo Feng and pass the other inheritances on to a few more people."

Relying on what Hu Yanbo had left behind, Babata was only confident of nurturing Luo Feng into a powerful World Lord. Whether Luo Feng could become Undying was another matter.

But if he took in the other geniuses on Earth too, he would only need to give them some inheritances.

According to this "Yun,"

their aptitude meant they actually had the potential to become World Lords too! They could help Luo Feng rebuild a new Meteorite Ink Star!

As for Yun's claim that Earth's potential was no less than that of the Yan God Race, Babata didn't know much about the Yan God Race, but he still made a note of it. However... he couldn't see anything special about this planet.

A seed of doubt had merely been planted.

"Luo Feng, go find Chen Yi and tell him about Meteorite Ink Star. Have him join our Meteorite Ink Star too!" Babata immediately urged Luo Feng.

Luo Feng nodded. He had already been thinking about getting Chen Yi to join Meteorite Ink Star. After all, he had heard from Senior Yun that Earth would face a "Golden Horned Beast" calamity in the future.

If Chen Yi could grow stronger too,

then...

everyone could face the calamity together!

Things proceeded smoothly. Chen Yi was the one pulling the strings behind the scenes, so of course he chose to join Meteorite Ink Star. The reason was simple, too.

Apart from Luo Feng, everyone in Meteorite Ink Star was dead.

There were no real restrictions either, so joining was no great matter. He could also use many of Meteorite Ink Star's Inheritance Secret Techniques without raising questions.

Moreover, Chen Yi played both sides himself.

As Senior Yun, he also made the acquaintance of "Chen Yi" in front of Luo Feng and Babata, presenting his Chen Yi identity as another genius whom "Senior Yun" thought highly of.

That way, whenever he brought out treasures from Universal Points in the future,

he could simply say that "Senior Yun" had given them to him!

With that, a new little group had emerged: "Chen Yi," Luo Feng, and Babata, and of course the identity of "Senior Yun," who could guide and direct everything from behind the scenes.

Having brought another genius into Meteorite Ink Star,

Babata was delighted. He spoke to the mysterious "Yun" through the Communication Watch.

"Heh heh, your name is Yun, right?"

"Thank you for this."

"Your suggestion to bring more geniuses into Meteorite Ink Star was indeed a good one. Once Meteorite Ink Star is rebuilt, we'll look after you too. But... I hope you remember that Luo Feng is Meteorite Ink Star's inheritor, and Chen Yi is one of us now too."

"Don't go setting your sights on them later!"

"Heh heh, I just thought these youngsters were promising and wanted to nurture them a little. Someone of my stature-would I need to fight you for them?" "Senior Yun" said casually.

"Nurture them? There's no need for you to do that from now on. Nurturing them is Meteorite Ink Star's own business..." Babata immediately replied.

The moment Luo Feng heard that, he sensed trouble. He hurriedly said, "Senior Yun, please don't listen to Babata's nonsense. I still care a great deal about your nurturing... I still have no way to deal with the Golden Horned Beast calamity!"

"???" Babata was instantly struck speechless.

Wait...

Why was his own Meteorite Ink Star inheritor bending his elbow outward, siding with an outsider instead of standing with him?!

And what was this Golden Horned Beast calamity?

How come he didn't know about it?
