Chapter 140
Lu Yanbie clutched his head, the veins on the back of his hands bulging as if they were about to burst through the thin skin and bleed.
Qing Teng was flustered, afraid that Li Yang's sudden revelation would scare Lu Yanbie away.
Li Yang did not back down or soften her stance. She spoke firmly and forcefully, "I know you've had a tough time these past years, and I believe you were used back then! If that's the case, why should we let the perpetrators go unpunished!"
Lu Yanbie forced his head up, his bloodshot eyes fixed on Li Yang, his voice hoarse like sandpaper. "It's impossible. No one will believe us..."
"Yes!" Li Yang said, "I helped Professor Li Yaowan repair her natal alchemy furnace, she will definitely be on our side!"
These words gave Lu Yanbie strength.
He had been living in exile and was unaware of many recent events at the Huaxia Heavenly Palace.
However, Lu Yanbie aware of Li Yaowan's extremely high reputation back then.
"You actually..." Lu Yanbie found it unbelievable.
Qing Teng quickly replied, "It was indeed Li Yang who did this. She was our master's most beloved assistant disciple. She helped our master obtain Eighth Grade Light-Congealing Titanium and successfully repaired his natal alchemy furnace. Now our master has returned to the Huaxia Heavenly Palace and is in charge of the Pill Division!"
Li Yang added, "The Nature Department now has a new batch of students, including Heavenly Chosen from the Lin Family, Zhong Family, Ying Family, and Wang Family."
Lu Yanbie had heard of these families very well.
They can be said to represent half of Huaxia!
However, these messages were too fantastical, Lu Yanbie felt they were unreal.
Li Yang continued to reassure Lu Yanbie, revealing a crucial piece of information. "I've also discovered a secret method for transforming into Growth-Type Divine Weapon. This will be my trump card in negotiations with the Star Nexus Pavilion."
She would actually use the Blue Crystal Soil as a bargaining chip, but explaining the Blue Crystal Soil was too complicated, and Lu Yanbie.
Upon hearing this, Lu Yanbie's eyes focused and shone.
He still found it unbelievable, but he knew very well.
Li Yang truly possesses a Growth-Type Divine Weapon!
If Li Yang has such a trump card, then the Star Nexus Pavilion will indeed re-evaluate the pros and cons.
Looking into Lu Yanbie's eyes, Li Yang said frankly, "Senior, we need a witness, a witness who can rightfully bring the traitor to justice."
Lu Yanbie what she meant, but he...
"If you testify for me, I will definitely help you get revenge. Then no one will be able to coerce you anymore, and you won't have to wander aimlessly anymore. If you're willing, you can join the Nature Pavilion and become a disciple of the Nature Department!"
Every word Li Yang uttered struck Lu Yanbie's heart like a heavy hammer, making his heart pound.
"But..." Lu Yanbie your mind get too confused. You need to calm down and sort things out."
Li Yang's voice softened, but her tone remained firm. "Senior, you don't need to make a decision now. Wait until we get this 100 million Star Coin and return to the Huaxia Heavenly Palace before you decide, okay?"
This was Li Yang's promise to him.
She was also using her true strength to tell Lu Yanbie that she had the ability to bring down the person behind the scenes!
Only by removing this 28-year-old thorn can they usher in a new life!
Chapter 140
Lu Yanbie gradually calmed down.
He realized they were still in the middle of the storm and were not safe.
The prize money from the Life-and-Death Battle hasn't arrived yet. Even if it does, whether I can collect it and leave safely is uncertain.
Thinking about things in the Huaxia Heavenly Palace now is simply too far in the future.
After calming down, Lu Yanbie looked at the Teleportation Anchor in his hand and asked, "Why do you have something from the Lost Space Society?"
Li Yang truthfully confessed, "A Realm Domain protected by Professor Li was infiltrated by the Lost Space Society. After I killed them in retaliation, I learned this spatial Star Skill."
She spoke in detail, and Lu Yanbie understood her perfectly.
But when these words are put together, they become difficult to understand.
Is it really that simple? Is it really that understated?
There are so many flaws in this passage that Lu Yanbie know where to begin!
That's the Lost Space Society.
This is Star Skill exclusive to the Upper Three Realms.
Li Yang was able to turn the tables and kill him... Lu Yanbie could barely accept that; but she had learned the exclusive Star Skill of the Upper Three Realms, what terrifying talent that must be!
A possibility arose in Lu Yanbie's mind, and he asked again, "Could you perhaps be Nature Department...?"
Qing Teng immediately replied, "That's right, Junior Aunt is Heavenly Fortune Bearer of the Nature Department!"
Lu Yanbie: "..."
Fine, all Nature Department are devils, and those Heavenly Fortune Bearer of the Nature Department are devils among devils.
These incredible things, when applied to those with Heavenly Fortune Bearer based on the Nature Department, suddenly become somewhat reasonable.
Lu Yanbie together; the deep-seated fear in your bones is gradually fading.
It's hard to say which of Li Yang's words touched him.
Perhaps it was the combination of all these "hopes" that allowed Lu Yanbie to see the bright future of a single spark igniting a prairie fire.
He was willing to believe Li Yang.
He longed from the bottom of his heart for what Li Yang had said to come true.
If you really know what happened back then...
Then he can rightfully go home!
He no longer had to live in fear, no longer had to wander around, no longer had to be a rat in the gutter despite having extremely high talent, forced to hide and evade capture.
Lu Yanbie closed his eyes briefly, composed himself, and said, "After we've dealt with the Life-and-Death Battle and secured the 100 million Star Coin, I'll go back to the Nature Pavilion with you."
Li Yang nodded solemnly and said, "Don't worry, senior, the Star Coin we risked our Risking Life will not be lost."
Qing Teng also expressed his concern for them, saying, "I don't think Jiang Nianchu would attack you in the Single-Horn Domain. The most likely scenario is that she tampered with the teleportation array."
In particular, Li Yang hosted a live stream.
Jiang Nianchu was even less likely to let her die in the Single-Horn Domain.
However, the teleportation array of the Single-Horn Domain was undoubtedly in Jiang Nianchu's hands. With just a slight adjustment, he could teleport Li Yang to an unknown small Realm Domain.
Then he can just go and kill Li Yang.
Li Yang and Lu Yanbie also agreed with Qing Teng's guess.
Jiang Nianchu might tamper with the teleportation array, but Li Yang has Teleportation Anchor, so she doesn't need to use the teleportation array at all.
If Lu Yanbie agrees to go with her, they can return to the Blue Crystal Realm Domain immediately after the Star Coin are deposited.
Jiang Nianchu couldn't find them at all.
Now that Li Yang has convinced Lu Yanbie, it seems there are no major problems for them. They can just wait for the Star Coin to arrive, then pack up and leave.
Qing Teng asked uneasily, "Will Jiang Nianchu really give you one hundred million Star Coin?"
Lu Yanbie, then said, "He'll just put on a show. Anyway, they're all anonymous communicators. In his mind, even if he gives them to us, he can quickly take them back after killing us."
Li Yang agreed with Lu Yanbie's words, but she hesitated for a moment before saying, "As for whether he might tamper with the communicator..."
Qing Teng: "Leave this to me, I can figure it out!"
In this way, it seems that everything is foolproof.
The three of them stayed in this safe spot and spent the day quietly.
A few hours later, Jiang Yuqing arrived. He exclaimed excitedly, "Sister Yang! You're so cool! I bet all my Star Coin and made a whopping 500,000!"
Qing Teng deliberately said, "There are so many."
Jiang Yuqing: "..."
He remembered that Li Yang was about to receive 50 million Star Coin, and suddenly he looked down on the 500,000 he had.
[Jiang Yuqing's Shock Points increased by 2000 points.]
This mere 500,000 is, coincidentally, 100 times less than 50 million.
[Jiang Yuqing's Shock Points increased by 2000 points.]
How can the differences between people be so vast!
Li Yang introduced Jiang Yuqing to Lu Yanbie. Upon learning that Jiang Yuqing was Heavenly Fortune Bearer in the Alchemical Dao Department, Lu Yanbie's eyes visibly brightened.
The fact that Li Yang's group is full of hidden talents is enough to show that the Nature Department have survived the harsh winter and are about to usher in a warm spring!
Li Yang also introduced Lu Yanbie to Jiang Yuqing.
Li Yang's sudden revelation of his real name startled Jiang Qingqing.
[Jiang Yuqing's Shock Points increased by 1000 points.]
Jiang Yuqing said dryly, "Did I miss something again? Tell me, tell me."
He stared at Li Yang with pleading eyes, like a little puppy.
Li Yang knew exactly what he was thinking.
Jiang Qingqing really didn't want to waste even a tiny bit of her Shock Points.
Li Yang: "We didn't miss anything. Let's talk about it when we get back to the Blue Crystal Realm Domain."
Jiang Yuqing wasn't in a hurry; hearing Li Yang's retelling was enough to shock him.
He looked at Lu Yanbie, cleared his throat, and said, "Senior Lu, don't worry, with my Sister Yang, the future is only bright!"
Lu Yanbie, amused by his words, said, "You're only at the Fourth Grade Realm, yet you dare to come to the Single-Horn Domain? Do you perhaps possess a secret treasure similar to the Invincible Shield?"
Jiang Yuqing puffed out her chest, brimming with pride, and declared, "I need a secret treasure? I don't! As long as I follow Sister Yang and listen to Sister Yang, I'll be Invincibility!"
His words made everyone laugh, and the tension that had been building for days eased somewhat.
As time went by, things were quite peaceful on their side.
Li Yang and Lu Yanbie participated in several remote interviews in order to maintain their exposure and allow the audience to monitor Single-Horn Domain.
For safety reasons, Li Yang declined all face-to-face interviews.
The interviewees also expressed their understanding, after all, with such a large amount of wealth coming in, even with the regulatory protection of Single-Horn Domain, one should be cautious.
The interview content was largely the same, nothing more than the same old stuff.
Initially, viewers enjoyed it immensely, but as the number of episodes increased and there were no new revelations, people started to find it uninteresting.
The live stream's popularity gradually declined, and the two-day deadline was fast approaching.
