315: The Great Sage Who Balances Accounts?
How long is an instant?
Ye Su knew.
It could be an eternity.
In the countercurrent of time, Ye Su saw many things.
Someone, by their own power, seized a city in a massive world to pave the way for those who followed.
Countless people sacrificed everything to ensure a blue planet was situated within a certain world.
Someone drew their sword and challenged the heavens to establish a Destiny for all living beings.
Someone transformed into a monster of flesh and blood to practice their highest faith.
...
He also saw that city of flesh and blood.
Fighting until the very last moment.
Zhang Huai was enveloped by a special power and stepped onto the path of a certain system.
He also saw that city.
In the end, only Zhang Huai was left—within the long river.
Ye Su gradually stripped away his emotions, leaving only the clearest rationality;
"Settling accounts? The Debt-Settling Great Sage? Zhang Huai looked behind me; he saw my timeline."
"The past... has many regrets? I can influence the past, so someone needs me to fix everything?"
"Are the big shots setting the board?"
"The Universe, Calamity Bizarre Creatures, ghosts, civilizations deep in the Chaos, Zhang Huai, and the person behind Zhang Huai—"
"Tsk tsk..."
Ye Su felt as if he were unfolding a massive map; only some parts of this map were clear, while the rest were all locked, blank areas.
"I am used to influence the past?"
"That's not right."
"My true Golden Finger is in the future!!"
Ye Su's Heart-Nature was firm.
He had encountered too many things along the way.
The past was not his harbor at all.
Among countless futures, he sought the one path where he could win.
Whether it was pinning the Golden Crow to death,
Or choosing to enter the Universe to save up money.
His sole purpose
Was to win everything!
"Not just for Great Xia, but for me!"
"And there are countless versions of me waiting for me to attain eternal proof!"
"Very good, this world is getting interesting."
"Then I'll have a good time playing with all of you!"
Ye Su, unaffected by emotions,
Was wild and carried a hint of arrogance.
He closed his eyes.
He buried these sights deep in his heart, or rather, noted them down in a little notebook.
Sooner or later, he would figure it all out.
When the time came, he would see exactly who these big shots were.
---Blue Star.
Ye Su had returned once again.
The moment he returned, Lu Yiyi's communication came through.
"Ye Su, you... you're back on Blue Star?"
"What do you mean I'm back on Blue Star? Wasn't I always on Blue Star?"
"You... oh, don't worry, the Mechanical Race holds the greatest secrets of this world; even if they know, they can't spread it."
"Damn, so that's how it is. I was just about to say I needed to mask the big data."
Ye Su said,
"For certain reasons, I came back in an instant."
"Then you're amazing. If there's a next time, let's go to the Calamity Chaos again, haha."
Lu Yiyi's eyes were narrowed into slits at this moment.
Sweet!
Ye Su was practically an invincible protective charm in the Calamity Chaos.
Death?
Don't be ridiculous. An Ascension Level Eight could die, but Ye Su wouldn't!
"Don't, don't set me up, I'm actually scared!"
Ye Su said.
Lu Yiyi was the type to forget the pain once the wound healed.
Just look at how desperate she was back then.
She really had a big heart.
Furthermore,
He kept Zhang Huai's words in mind.
He felt like he was a credit card in the Calamity Chaos; swiping it felt great, but if he had to settle the final bill later, wouldn't he be screwed?
"By the way, did you get away?"
Ye Su asked.
"I should ask, can you stop poking my chest? That's where my Star Core is. I was scared to death by you then, I thought you were going to kill me!"
Lu Yiyi said speechlessly;
"Basically no problem. Those big shots in the Universe don't even understand the Calamity Chaos much."
"There's only one explanation for my situation, and that's that the power of the Calamity Chaos is preparing to invade the Universe."
"Seeing that I'm fine, it just piqued their interest in defending against the Calamity Chaos. I expect the Calamity Chaos is about to be blockaded."
Ye Su nodded.
At the time, his brain couldn't think that far ahead; he only wanted to muddy the waters.
He didn't expect that after the waters were muddied, those big shots would come up with a logical explanation.
That's more like it.
A specific action requires a complete chain of logic to support it afterward.
Who would have thought it was just a sudden whim?
One could only say
A fool's sudden whim can definitely break the composure of a highly rational big shot.
Ye Su was happy to play the fool at that moment.
"Honestly, how much did you make this time?"
Since the crisis had been suppressed, it was now time to split the profits.
Ye Su opened his mouth wide, ready to bite a chunk out of Lu Yiyi.
This mission to protect the financial backer...
Ye Su really completed it through gritted teeth!
He'd lost big time!
"Hehe."
Lu Yiyi didn't reply, she just chuckled.
She'd made a killing!
Not to mention the Will of Heaven.
Just Ye Su's final strike alone had pushed Lu Yiyi into a position she had only dreamed of.
Selected by the cataclysm, surviving a great disaster.
In a Universe world dominated by the Will of Heaven,
What did this mean?
Destiny!
In other words, Lu Yiyi's life was tougher than an Ascension Level Eight!
With such a tough fate, if the Star Spirit Clan didn't pour resources into her, the entire race would have to be pig-brained!
"Thanks to your great fortune!"
"Star Spirit Clan, Core Ordinal Position: 6!"
Lu Yiyi said;
"It's just so-so, basically just having a vote on matters like whether or not to fight the Golden Crow Clan."
"Yeah, the Star Spirit Clan only has 9 votes."
Ye Su's eyes nearly popped out.
Fighting the Golden Crow Clan?
One of the 9 decisive votes?
Core Ordinal Position...
That's your Star Spirit Clan's power hierarchy!
Damn.
You freaking made a killing!
In fact, this wasn't an exaggeration at all.
After this incident, Lu Yiyi was directly groomed as an Ascension Nine by the Star Spirit Clan.
As long as she didn't seek death herself and die in some corner,
Or lead the Star Spirit Clan into a ditch,
She was almost certain to become an Ascension Nine in the future.
Of course—there were definitely the Star Spirit Clan Old Ancestor's own special ideas involved.
After all,
If she could lure the Calamity Power to possess her once,
Maybe she could lure it a second time.
If she were stronger and her life tougher, maybe she could lure out even more Calamity Power.
"Lu Yiyi!"
Ye Su took a deep breath and said,
"Please take care of me!"
Far away in the Star Spirit Clan, Lu Yiyi burst out laughing.
Ye Su, oh Ye Su.
You really know when to yield and when to stand tall.
Fine;
"Tell me, what do you want?"
"Um... does your Star Spirit Clan recruit sons-in-law?"
"You bastard!"
"OK, OK, let's talk business."
Ye Su said.
His little brain started spinning rapidly; the rich woman had opened her wallet;
"I want to bring quite a few people to the Universe."
"Help me settle our identities, and then let us be affiliated under your Star Spirit Clan."
"Then buy a continent or a planet or something; we need to develop gradually."
Lu Yiyi frowned;
"You're still unwilling to give up that rotten planet of yours?"
"It wouldn't be hard for you to migrate your entire race out now."
Ye Su shook his head.
No way!
Blue Star—I must have it.
This isn't just a homeland; it's the root of everyone!
Furthermore,
After the incident in the Calamity Chaos,
Ye Su was even less likely to give up on Blue Star!
