Star Odyssey

and they suppressed everyone and everything in the Middle Realm and below.
There were no exceptions.

Qing Chen’s timely arrival was the only reason why the humans had been allowed a respite in the battle, though naturally, Qing Chen had arrived to take Lu Yin away.

Semi-Progenitor Liu Hua sat on the ground in a cross-legged position.
The void isolated her body, but she also seemed to be cut off from the true universe.
This was a concept that Lu Yin was unable to understand, though he did know that the woman was suffering from Vitality Poison.

Qing Chen landed nearby, and his brows furrowed as he looked at Semi-Progenitor Liu Hua.

Ji Feng sealed the Semi-Progenitor off and ordered everyone back before turning to speak to Qing Chen.
“The Aeternus has developed their poison to the point where it even poses a threat to Semi-Progenitors.
They are still working to improve it and it’s only a matter of time until it can threaten even Progenitors, as they have already reached the point where their poison can enter and corrode a powerhouse’s inner world.”

Qing Chen quietly replied, “I’ll report these matters to the Progenitors.”

“Liu Hua has been reduced to this state, and I don’t know if she’ll be able to survive.
The current situation is not looking good.”

Qing Chen looked at Ji Feng.
“Make a report to General Xia Yan.
Someone will be dispatched to replace Liu Hua.
I will stay here with the Forsaken Soldiers until reinforcements arrive.”

Semi-Progenitor Ji Feng heaved a sigh of relief.
“That's good.”

Liu Hua was completely isolated, so no one knew what was happening to her.

After the battle concluded, Lu Yin also met with Qing Chen.

Qing Chen was not in a good mood when Lu Yin saw the older man.
Semi-Progenitor Liu Hua had been poisoned, and Qing Chen had also seen Wan Zhiyi’s circumstances, which left the supervisor with conflicted emotions.

“You've done well.
When I learned that you had fallen to the New World, everyone believed that you had died, even me,” Qing Chen’s voice was full of emotion, as he felt truly lucky.

Lu Yin replied, “Your subordinate also thought that we were all dead.
I did not expect to discover the Red Beamy or that it would be repairable.
But because of the all-out assault on the five array bases, the New World did not have any strong enemies there, allowing me to travel to the Forsaken Soldiers.”

Qing Chen was very solemn.
“Just now, during this last battle, Marquis Green Bamboo and the other marquis both attacked you.
This is not a safe place for you.
Once the replacement Semi-Progenitor arrives, I’ll take you away from here.
With what you’ve accomplished on the battlefield, you can request to leave this battlefield.”

Lu Yin's heart skipped a beat.
“Supervisor, after we fell down to the New World, your subordinate was only able to survive by relying and cooperating with a group of people.
Can they also leave this place?”

Qing Chen asked, “Are you talking about Zhou Tang  and the others with him?”

“Do you know Zhou Tang?” Lu Yin was caught off guard.
Even though Zhou Tang and the others were all powerful Envoys, Qing Chen should not know about them, right? After all, Qing Chen, Ji Feng, and Liu Hua were all lofty Semi-Progenitors.

Qing Chen grew more somber.
“Their status is special.
They belong to the Star Alliance and the Forsaken Soldiers.
Since they’ve come to this place, the rules are clear.
They cannot leave.”

Lu Yin anxiously protested, “But they provided invaluable assistance to this subordinate! Without them, your subordinate would have never been able to survive and reach this place.”

Qing Chen did not respond, but instead looked behind Lu Yin.

Lu Yin turned and saw Zhou Tang, Mr.
Guo, and the others.
The two men were not far away, and Qing Chen and Lu Yin had done nothing to hide their conversation, so the Envoys had heard everything.

Che Zhan spoke with a smile, “Brother Long Qi, it's enough for you to feel this way.”

Mr.
Guo nodded and grew emotional.
“It has been an honor to have gotten to know Brother Long Qi during my time in the Star Alliance.”

“All of us are honored,” Brother Hong said seriously.

The Mother of the Eastern Mountains smiled.
“I don't want to go back.
Staying here is better.”

Finally, Lu Yin looked at Zhou Tang.

Zhou Tang still had an unkempt appearance, but the gaze in his eyes had become much sharper compared to when Lu Yin had first seen the man.
“Remember, the most important thing in cultivating battle force is your spirit.
As you climb higher in this universe, your battle force will eventually break through.
There are people who say that cultivating battle force serves no purpose since there are no records of a battle force user becoming a Progenitor, but I don’t believe this.”

Even though Zhou Tang did not explicitly say so, Lu Yin clearly understood that the man would also remain at the Folded Mountain Range.

Lu Yin earnestly replied to his companions, “I am also honored to have known all of you.”

“It's too early for such talk.
Brother Long Qi, you will still have to remain here at the Folded Mountains for a while longer.” Che Zhan laughed.

Several people bowed to Qing Chen before returning to their own quarters.

Lu Yin’s mood was ruined.
He had desperately wanted to take his comrades away, and not only them, but he also wanted to take away all the members of the All-Dao family and the Qiming family.
He truly wanted to rescue them, but this was not the proper time.
He could only hope that they would be able to survive and wait for the day when he was able to fight his way back to the battlefield behind the Mother Tree.

Lu Yin swore that he would absolutely return to this battlefield and that he would also bring about the return of the Lu family.
When the day that he summoned the Lu family’s surviving vassals came, it would also be the day when he stepped onto the peak of the Perennial World.

Only after arriving at the New World had Qing Chen discovered that the All-Dao family and Qiming family had been exiled to the Forsaken Soldiers.
The Humility’s Gate’s Supervisor met with Uncle He, Young Master Tu, and Wan Sen.
Even though they had not met each other before, they were all familiar with each other, and their meeting incited many emotions.

“Hey, are you really leaving?” Young Master Tu was feeling bored, so he prodded Lu Yin while lying on the mountain.

“Of course.”

Young Master Tu looked up at the vague, but massive, shadow of the array base high above the sky above them.
He did not know what to think.

Lu Yin looked at Young Master Tu and smiled.
“Before I leave, do you want me to kick your ass again?”

Young Master Tu grinned.
“You look like an asshole, and you also speak like one.”

“So yes.” Lu Yin raised a hand.

Young Master Tu quickly moved away.
“Don't mess around! I'm not dealing with any pain right now, so no, I don't want to fight you.
Give me a few days to relax.”

Young Master Tu had only sought Lu Yin to beat him up when suffering from mental torture.
He had treated Lu Yin as though he were someone else when Young Master Tu drowned in his memories and was incapacitated by the pain.
At the moment, Young Master Tu was not suffering from any mental torture, so naturally, he had no desire to suffer in vain.
