Chapter 2485: Attack

Every time Lu Yin witnessed any hint of her strength, Bai Xian'er had been significantly stronger than him. When they first fought in Crimson Garden, the unique power in Lu Yin's chest had been completely useless against her. However, in subsequent confrontations, especially when they had bet on the results of the death match between the God of Food and Mr. Yu, Lu Yin had felt that, if not for Bai Sheng's abrupt appearance, he could have killed Bai Xian'er, or at the very least, taken her Book of Destiny.

Lu Yin had continuously grown stronger, but Bai Xian'er’s strength had stagnated. It was very clear that there was something abnormal about this situation.action

Everyone in the Perennial World was aware of Bai Xian'er’s incredible talent, even three-year-olds. Thus, it could only mean that her lack of progress in the recent years indicated some sort of ulterior motive.

Lu Yin could not even begin to guess what level her strength would reach after her breakthrough, nor what her breakthrough would mean for him.

Out of all of humanity, the person that Lu Yin feared most was Bai Xian'er.

"Hahaha, is she finally going to have her breakthrough? I've waited so long for this!" Bai Wangyuan, an incredibly powerful master of one of the Nine Mountains and Eight Seas, was openly ecstatic about Bai Xian'er's pending breakthrough.

On the other hand, Xia Qin appeared quite solemn. It was true that Bai Xian'er was a junior, but she was also an inevitability. Her breakthrough to the Envoy realm had been a massive and memorable event, which had prompted Aeternus to launch a massive attack on the Perennial World. What would happen during her breakthrough to become a Semi-Progenitor?

"Progenitor Bai, there's no need for us to worry about Xian'er's breakthrough, but if someone tries to cause trouble, things could end up very differently," Bai Sheng's message came through.

Bai Wangyuan's smile faded, and he looked over at Lu Yin.

Xia Qin and Wang Fan also looked over.

The reason why the Fifth Mainland and the Perennial World were able to coexist in peace was almost entirely due to Lu Yin's ability to threaten Bai Xian'er’s safety. If anyone could threaten her during her breakthrough, it would be Lu Yin.

"Lu Xiaoxuan, I need you to stay within my sight for the time being," Bai Wangyuan said unreservedly. His posture had changed. Now, he was like the calm before the storm and wouldn't allow Lu Yin to try anything.

Lu Yin's eyes flickered. He had been hoping to disturb Bai Xian'er's breakthrough by triggering Destiny again. Bai Xian’er was simply too great a threat for him to do nothing. However, it was quite unexpected to have Bai Wangyuan keep an eye on him to prevent him from doing anything.

Was this really just a coincidence?

Lu Yin looked towards the parallel universe that held Aeternus Nation. If he had not made numerous arrangements in the process of trying to entrap Specter Progenitor and force the man into a corner, Specter Progenitor would have never visited the Fifth Mainland. His visit had then drawn the attention of Bai Wangyuan, and at the same time, Bai Xian'er had chosen to trigger her breakthrough. Was this really just all a coincidence, or had someone been watching Lu Yin?

Could Bai Xian'er be watching him?

He thought back to when he had posed as Yu Hao and met with Bai Xian'er in Crimson Garden. She had been the one to reveal Shenwu's Sky's plan. Just how much was Bai Xian'er really aware of? Her Book of Destiny had been burned, right?

Lu Yin had his own goals that had induced him to force Specter Progenitor to step out, but Bai Xian'er's breakthrough had disrupted all of Lu Yin’s plans. There was no way for him to avoid Bai Wangyuan’s attention. "Congratulations, Bai Wangyuan. Bai Xian'er’s breakthrough will propel your Celestial Frost Sect to new heights. As a gift, I'll help you by bringing out Specter Progenitor."

As Lu Yin spoke, he remained atop the jiao and directed the beast through the spatial rift and into Aeternus Nation.

"Stay right here!" Bai Wangyuan shouted as he attacked. It did not matter where Lu Yin wanted to go; Bai Wangyuan would not allow him to leave.

However, Lu Yin had already been close to the spatial rift, and given the jiao’s speed, Bai Wangyuan could do nothing to stop them from entering the parallel universe.Bai Wangyuan saw the jiao pass through the spatial rift, and he followed right behind. There was no hesitation as he chased after Lu Yin, as he had already done so once before with this particular parallel universe.
