Star Odyssey Chapter 1188: Lu Yin And Bu Laoweng

Chapter 1188: Lu Yin And Bu Laoweng

No one in the venue spoke, and everyone’s eyes were on Lu Yin.

Wei Rong did not speak either, as there was no longer any need to do so.

Lu Yin looked at Tian Shao in surprise, and when he looked at the old man behind the youth, Lu Yin’s smile disappeared. "Your name is Tian Shao, right?"

Tian Shao stared back at Lu Yin. "That's right. My grandfather is one of the Hall of Honor’s nine overseers, Bu Laoweng."

Lu Yin nodded. "I know. I've heard of him."

Tian Shao’s arrogance grew.

Lu Yin looked at the youth, and his slight smile reappeared. "Do you want to die?"

Upon hearing these words, silence filled the room once again, and everyone froze while staring at Lu Yin. What?!

Not even Wei Rong had expected Lu Yin to be this, this… Domineering? He had actually just threatened the grandson of one of the nine overseers straight to his face! This was too arrogant!

Tian Shao was left utterly stupefied. These words were usually spoken by him, and n.o.body had ever dared to speak to him in such a manner before. He actually did not even know how to respond.

Behind Tian Shao, the old man's expression changed, and he took a few steps forward to get closer to Lu Yin’s image. The old man’s eyes were wary and radiated a killing intent.

The corners of Monster Chi's mouth twitched as he stared at Lu Yin in a daze. This kid had guts.

"If you want to die, then I can grant you your wish," Lu Yin continued, still with a small smile on his face. He acted as though he was not threatening the grandson of one of the nine overseers, but rather just a completely ordinary person.

Lu Yin did not feel that his Great Eastern Alliance had existed long enough for his prestige to be able to convince everyone to sacrifice everything and follow him. He was not vain, and so he had no intention of competing with Tian Shao in terms of charm or conditions. Instead, Lu Yin preferred to go straight to the root of the issue: the Outerverse belonged to Lu Yin, and no one else could touch it.

This was not only true of the Outerverse, but also of everything that belonged to Lu Yin; no one could take his belongings away.

At this moment, Tian Shao finally managed to react, and he laughed out of sheer anger. Still, his laugh contained an indescribable mockery and arrogance. He looked at Lu Yin. "You? Are you threatening me? Threatening Tian Shao?"

Lu Yin laughed. "Your smile just now was somewhat similar to Nightking Zhenwu’s, though he was much smarter and stronger than you."

Tian Shao's expression fell. "Don't compare me to some loser from the Innerverse."

Lu Yin was caught off guard. "Who gave you confidence to consider yourself above the Ten Arbiters? Although I hated the Nightking, I have to say that, out of all my peers who have opposed me, he ranks at the very top. However, you don’t even qualify."

"Lu Yin, don't be arrogant! You’re nothing but some bug from the Outerverse! How could you compare to me?” Tian Shao was infuriated, and he continued to stare at Lu Yin. "Believe it or not—a single word from me can wipe out the entire Great Yu Empire, and everyone you hold dear will die!"

Lu Yin's expression chilled. "Is this Bu Laoweng’s position?"

Tian Shao was about to respond, but the old man pulled him back and whispered a few sentences into his ear. The youth was reluctant, but Tian Shao still ended up helplessly nodding and agreeing to the old man’s words.

The gathered representatives of the Outerverse all looked at Lu Yin and then over at Tian Shao. They were all struck by complicated emotions. On one hand, they feared Lu Yin's methods, but on the other, they wanted what Tian Shao had promised them. In short, they wanted to help Tian Shao, but they were too afraid of Lu Yin.

This was particularly true of Feng Shu. He had been shamelessly sucking up to Tian Shao, but at this moment, Feng Shu simply wanted to hide in the ground.

Lu Yin dared to openly and verbally threaten Tian Shao, and this showed that Lu Yin’s words carried true weight. There was no one present who dared to interrupt the two youths.

The fact that Lu Yin had gradually become more and more domineering proved that his backing had continuously grown stronger. When Wei Rong thought about the strength of Leon's Armada and the fact they were in the Outerverse, he believed that Lu Yin could actually carry out his threat.

The first and foremost priority for anyone was to figure out what one wanted to do.

Besides, Lu Yin had already offended one of the nine overseers, none other than the Daynight clan’s Nightking Zheng. Thus, Lu Yin did not care if he added Bu Laoweng to the mix.

Lu Yin always felt that it was better to have fewer enemies, but not if it meant giving up his own benefits.

Tian Shao reluctantly looked at Lu Yin, and then he turned on his own gadget to call someone.

Lu Yin looked at Tian Shao's gadget and saw that it was the exact same model as what Lu Yin had just received. This latest type of gadget was able to connect to the Innerverse, the Outerverse, the Cosmic Sea, and even the Neoverse. Unsurprisingly, Tian Shao was contacting Bu Laoweng.

Lu Yin's expression grew solemn; he was about to meet Bu Laoweng face to face, and although Lu Yin was bold enough to offend even the nine overseers, in reality, meeting one directly was a bit complicated. Truly, there were always more and more enemies.

Behind Lu Yin, Zi Jing smiled as she watched him. He was a very overbearing man, albeit a bit thin.

Tian Shao did not move to hide this matter from the other people from the Outerverse. Instead, he called Bu Laoweng straight away, and the overseer’s image soon appeared before the crowd.

Everyone stared at him in awe, even Wei Rong. While he might not care about Tian Shao, he was still solemn when facing an overseer.

Bu Laoweng’s authority was completely different from Tian Shao’s. What kind of existence was one of the Hall of Honor’s nine overseers? Forget the Outerverse—even the experts from the eight great flowzones in the Innerverse likely would not be able to meet an overseer. These people stood at the absolute peak of the Human Domain, and a single word from any one of them could determine the rise or fall of an entire weave.

Even though Lu Yin had unified the Outerverse with methods that inspired fear in the people present in the Alliance Convention, the mere presence of Bu Laoweng, even though he had a smiling expression, sent chills to the hearts of everyone in the crowd. This old man held true, uncontested power.

Authority came with power, and the old man behind Tian Shao was a powerhouse whom Bu Laoweng had personally sent.

Bu Laoweng was an ordinary-looking old man dressed in plain clothes. If one randomly met him out on the street, he would not even receive a second glance. However, at this moment, everyone was staring at the image of the old man, and no one knew what would happen next.

"Grandpa," Tian Shao respectfully greeted the old man.

The old man behind Tian Shao also saluted the image, his demeanor respectful.

At the same time, everyone attending the Alliance Convention began to salute the old man, including Wei Rong, Gong Chow, and the others. This was the respect owed to one of the nine overseers.

Most people in the Outerverse did not know about the Neoverse, let alone the faces of the nine overseers who stood at the peak of the Human Domain. To them, it was instinctive to bow when seeing such a person.

Bu Laoweng smiled. He had long since grown accustomed to a crowd’s adoration. However, there was one exception, and that person was Lu Yin.

Lu Yin did not salute the elder, and instead, he simply raised his hand in greeting. "Elder Bu Laoweng, how are you?"

"Insolent!" the old man behind Tian Shao sternly shouted while glaring at Lu Yin. "How dare you speak to the overseer in such a tone! Junior, you are too lax in your manners!"

Lu Yin completely ignored the old man.

Bu Laoweng also raised a hand. "Come, children, be more tolerant."

The old man immediately bowed his head. He did not dare to speak up again.

Upon seeing this, everyone felt chills run down their spines.

The subservient old man was an Enlighter with a power level of at least 400,000, which placed him among the universe’s top experts. However, that old man was currently groveling before Bu Laoweng, which amply demonstrated the overseer’s power and authority.
