Chapter 559: Ironblood Weave

This kind of innate gift was very powerful, and this woman would be able to rapidly increase her power. Since she was from Mafioso Planet, she would become his enemy in the future. He did not want to leave such a threatening enemy for his future self.

She immediately sensed Lu Yin’s killing intent, and she pitifully cried out, “Big brother, you’re a good person. Please let me go! I really haven’t killed anyone yet.”

Lu Yin stared at her, and bloodlust flashed across his eyes, causing the girl’s heart to tremble. She promptly continued, “Lu Yin, you can’t kill me.”

Lu Yin’s brows rose. “You recognize me?”

The bespectacled girl nodded. “Yes, just now. Lu Yin, killing me won’t help you.”

“Have you heard of Topmist?” Lu Yin asked.

She was shocked. “The Great Elder?”

Lu Yin’s lips curled. “So he really is from Mafioso Planet. Unfortunately, I have a grudge against him, so I have to kill his people. Your innate gift is destined to not exist.”

“Wait! I can help you kill him!” she shouted.

Lu Yin laughed. “Do you know how strong he is? Help me kill him? Wait another 500 years!”

“He’s the Great Elder of my Mafioso Planet! He’s an Enlighter! I know that I truly can’t kill him right now, but there will come a day when I’ll surpass him! Also, I have my own reasons to kill him,” she quickly blurted out.

“Go on.” Lu Yin grew interested.

Her eyes flickered. She hurriedly arranged her thoughts before explaining, saying, “Mafioso Planet is a top-notch assassin organization for all of the surrounding weaves. We also have an inherited treasure, known as the Bloodied Handprint. Only the strongest cultivator within the organization can inherit it, and all the assassins want to obtain the Bloodied Handprint. Right now, Topmist is the one who holds the Bloodied Handprint. Our organization does not cherish feelings of camaraderie, and our members won’t unite. Thus, everyone’s ultimate target is the Great Elder.”

“The Bloodied Handprint? Is it very powerful?” Lu Yin asked.

She solemnly replied, “Based on some ancient records, the Bloodied Handprint was once used to swat an extreme powerhouse from the Innerverse whose power level was over 300,000 to death.”

Lu Yin was astonished. “Your Mafioso Planet has such a powerful object?”

She nodded. “It’s Mafioso Planet’s most valuable inherited treasure, and it can’t be used unless it’s a matter of life and death. The authority to use it also lies solely with the Great Elder. As long as he’s fighting for his life, he will have a power equivalent to an extreme powerhouse whose power level surpasses 300,000. However, the item can only be used against outsiders, and it can’t be used internally. As soon as my power surpasses the Great Elder, I’ll replace him. At that time, killing him will be a piece of cake. If an outsider wants to kill him, it will be almost impossible unless the Great Elder can be lured away from Mafioso Planet.”

Lu Yin fell deep into thought. It turned out that Topmist actually had such a powerful life-preserving treasure in store. However, that didn’t seem quite right. Lu Yin had seen Topmist’s rune lines on Shuta Planet, and they definitely had not reached an extreme. If he had possessed the Bloodied Handprint, then his number of rune lines would have greatly surpassed that of a regular Enlighter.

Since that old killer was clearly scared of death, he would obviously keep a life saving treasure on him at all times. However, there had been no trace of such a thing when Lu Yin had seen Wu Shen. Thus, there were only three possibilities. First, this woman was lying and the Bloodied Handprint didn’t exist. Second, the BloodiedHandprint did not reveal its power until right before it was unleashed. Finally, the Bloodied Handprint was something like Ze Lin’s power vessel, and it was something that could only be used once.

At this time, the bespectacled girl activated her gadget and tapped it to display a screen. “Big brother, I know that you don’t believe me, so look here.”

Lu Yin looked over and saw a bit of text on the screen. It described the Bloodied Handprint, and although there were not many words there, he could tell that the characters in this image were not a forgery. Rather, they were something that had been written long ago, as they were genuinely extremely ancient.

However, this still did not prove that the Bloodied Handprint actually existed. After so many years, it could have already been used. “Even if this thing still exists, it’s clearly impossible for you to kill Topmist. I don’t have the time to slowly wait for you to get stronger. If I truly want to kill Topmist, then I might as well look for someone stronger in your organization to cooperate with.”

“Assassins won’t cooperate with others, but I can.” The young woman was flustered, as she could truly feel Lu Yin’s killing intent at this time. Assassins were extremely sensitive towards this kind of danger. “The stronger a killer is, the more unlikely it is for them to cooperate with others. The assassins trained by Mafioso Planet have no loyalty, but I do. I can serve you, so long as you don’t kill me and provide me with that poison from before.”

“Why should I trust you?” Lu Yin asked coldly.

The girl replied, “You don’t need to trust me. Regardless, I pose no threat to you, and you are extremely beneficial to me. The poison that you showed me earlier is something that’s incredibly difficult to find, even if one searched the entire Outerverse. I want to quickly increase my power, so I need poisons like that one. How about it? Just treat it as if you’re hiring me and paying me with those poisons. I can work for you.” Then, when she saw the killing intent in his eyes slowly fade away, she continued, enticingly saying, “Think about it. Killing me won’t do anything for you, but keeping me around will give you one more opportunity to deal with Topmist, right? Besides, when I get stronger, I can even kill others for you.”

This was indeed a valid point, and the bespectacled girl’s explanation was very convincing, especially the part about how the poison that could quickly improve her power was not something easily obtained. The poisons in Lu Yin’s possession had all been manufactured by Elder Wu, an Enlighter. How many Enlighters were there in the universe, and how many of them could make poisons? The probability of finding other, similar poisons was extremely low.

This woman’s existence was neither a huge nor an insignificant threat, and the best way for her to improve her power was in his hands. As long as he restricted her access to these poisons, Lu Yin did not believe that she would be able to grow faster than him. His rate of improvement was something that he had absolute confidence in.

“How long will this trial mission last for?” Lu Yin asked.

She immediately answered, “Mine is one month, but the others’ are very long.”

Lu Yin nodded. “Alright. In three months, you must head to the Great Yu Empire’s Zenyu Star to meet with me. If you don’t, I’ll take it that you’re untrustworthy, and you can forget about ever getting more of these poisons. Also, if I meet you in the future, I’ll definitely kill you.”

The bespectacled girl relaxed, as she now knew she would not die here. “Relax, those poisons hold a greater attraction for me than you’d believe. I’ll definitely find you.”

“You just drank a bottle of poison, which is payment for starting your employment. I haven’t thought of anyone that you should kill, but I’ve already paid you. Thus, don’t even think about backing out on that bit,” Lu Yin commented.

She immediately acknowledged his words and then carefully patted her chest. “Thank you, big brother.”

“I already told you to not call me that.” Lu Yin frowned. Her seductive tone and previous actions were designed to suffocate his desire to kill her, and Lu Yin was well aware of it. However, what actually dispelled his killing intent was the woman’s words. There was truly no benefit in killing her here, and there wasn’t much of a threat in letting her live. It was possible that she might actually be of some use in the future.

Although consuming powerful poisons would allow her to quickly raise her power, such an innate gift must also come with severe limitations. This increase in power would not be properly balanced, and someone who used such methods would never be able to become a top-tier powerhouse.

Before she left, she told Lu Yin that she was called Mistchild. There were seven Mistchilds from Mafioso Planet, as it was the term that the top killer within a given realm on Mafioso Planet took on. She was the Melder Mistchild, and below her was the Sentinel Mistchild. Above her, there was the Limiteer Mistchild, Explorer Mistchild, Cruiser Mistchild, Hunter Mistchild, and the top was the Enlighter Mistchild.

Currently, Mafioso Planet only had one Enlighter, who was Topmist. Naturally, he was the Enlighter Mistchild.

The final target of all of the Mistchilds was the Enlighter Mistchild. This had been the tradition on Mafioso Planet for countless years, and no one could change it.

The bespectacled girl had told Lu Yin all this, possibly to express her sincerity out of fear that Lu Yin might still kill her.

However, she had thought too much. Since Lu Yin had agreed to not kill her, he would not kill her. He would not stoop so low as to deceive a girl, even if she was a killer.

The most important thing a killer could do was avoid bad luck. The girl’s mission was to kill all the trial takers, but Lu Yin’s existence prevented her from acting. In the end, she wasn’t able to make a move until two whole days had passed, after which Lu Yin returned to his spacecraft in outer space. At this time, she finally bared her fangs and began to massacre the other trial takers.

She looked up and gazed deeply beyond the sky. She was different from the average killer, as they lacked foresight. She was ambitious, and she had never sought to gain a reputation that would cause others to fear her. Instead, she wanted all of Mafioso Planet.

Lu Yin’s appearance had coincidentally allowed them to create an alliance. As she helped Lu Yin, she could also use him to help herself.

However, cooperating with Lu Yin left her with no room for negotiation. Her life was firmly within his grasp, but refusal was not a choice either. This person actually had poisons that were far beyond her own grasp, and she would be able to quickly strengthen herself with them.

One day, the future would belong to their generation. Since that was the case, then she would cooperate with the strongest member of her generation. Within the same realm, Lu Yin wasn’t merely the strongest in the Outerverse, but in the entire universe.

In outer space, Lu Yin and Wendy Yushan disconnected from a call. Lu Yin wanted to head to Shenwu Continent’s space station with Wendy to get a clear picture of the events there.

He had already killed three Enlighters, which was too oppressive a reputation for them to handle. The prestige of the almighty powerhouses had been challenged. Under these circumstances, Lu Yin needed to limit how frequently he appeared in the public eye. The less fearful he seemed to be, the more nervous the Enlighters would become, and they would become too eager to deal with him.

Wendy Yushan wasn’t certain why Lu Yin wanted to go to Shenwu Continent, but she was determined to follow him wherever he went. At this time, only by cooperating could the two of them threaten the remaining powerhouses.

The Outerverse was connected to the Astral Wilderness in the west, while to the east lay the Astral Beast Domain. There was a weave in the Outerverse called Ironblood Weave which was the connecting point between the Outerverse and the Astral Beast Domain.

Ironblood Weave was a weave of pure conflict, and there were no commoners there. All of the habitable planets in this weave had been linked together to form massive fortresses, and each fortress was a different region of Ironblood Weave. This was done to extend the battlefront. An endless war against the Astral Beast Domain was waged within this weave, all in an attempt to prevent the astral beasts from invading the other weaves.

Countless years ago, all of the living humans in Ironblood Weave had been massacred. In modern times, those who fought in this place were either from other weaves or cultivators who had been sent there from the Innerverse.

The opposing Astral Beast Domain also suffered heavy losses in Ironblood Weave, similar to the border warfront in Erudite Flowzone. Countless years of fighting had led to many astral beasts perishing, and quite a few races had even gone extinct as a result of the never-ending fighting. Even if the Astral Beast and Human Domains had agreed to a peace agreement, the war here would endlessly rage on until one of the two sides was completely extinguished.
