“The leader of the Dao Alliance is the Alliance Master. If we follow what you say, Destruction Golden Lord, does that not mean the Alliance Master himself is also serving that mysterious existence?” Lin Yun could hardly believe it.
The Sixth Prince of the elf race also spoke. “Yes, it sounds highly contradictory. Between your human Dao Alliance and the six major forces, conflict has always been unending. The two sides have even clashed in open warfare, suffering heavy losses on both sides. If the same person stands behind them, why would they fight themselves like this? It really makes no sense.”
Destruction Golden Lord replied, “I find it contradictory too, and I could never uncover the full truth behind it. The more I probed, the more terrifying it seemed. Unfortunately, I was unable to investigate further before the six major forces joined together to destroy me.”
After a pause, Destruction Golden Lord added, “Of course, this is only a conjecture based on what I managed to discover. I cannot guarantee it is accurate.”
Lin Yun fell into deep thought.
The stronger one became, the deeper the layers one reached, the more doubts arose. It only made Lin Yun more uncertain about the true reality behind this world.
“Let us turn to the matter at hand, Lin Yun. Today, two golden supremes of the six major forces have been slain. If you remain among the human race, it will probably be unsafe. You could come to my elf race for a time to take shelter,” the Sixth Prince suggested.
Originally, their plan had been to rescue Lin Yun and bring him straight back to the elf race.
Only now, so many others had come to save him; it was no longer just the elves alone.
“Brother Lin Yun, you would be equally welcome in my beastman race. No problem at all!” Mu Li declared.
“I am fine with either. Leaving the human race first and cultivating until I reach supreme would be good,” Lin Yun said.
The Sixth Prince continued, “Lin Yun, there is one more thing. Before my father came, he asked me to pass on a message. The elf race is willing to take you as a son-in-law. With this identity, you would gain the support of many elf race resources. You might even have the chance to receive baptism in our spiritual spring, which would be of enormous benefit to the cultivation of your divine sense!”
“Take me as a son-in-law?” Lin Yun was stunned.
This was something Lin Yun had never expected.
Mu Li said, “If that is the case, Brother Lin Yun, I suggest you go to the elf race and receive their inheritance. It will definitely benefit you!”
Which other human had ever received the inheritance and opportunities of the elf race?
This was truly a once-in-a-lifetime chance.
“But… to marry Zi Tong, this…” Lin Yun felt somewhat awkward.
“Lin Yun, do you look down on my daughter? Or do you have no feelings for her?” the Sixth Prince asked.
“How could I look down on Zi Tong? She is a good person. Last time in the elf race, she helped and protected me so much,” Lin Yun replied.
Zi Tong could be said to have played an indispensable role in Lin Yun reaching the ninth rank of the immeasurable level.
Yet Lin Yun continued, “I simply do not want this matter to involve interests.”
“I understand what you mean, Lin Yun. However, only with this identity can the pro-war faction within the elf race find no grounds to oppose you receiving our inheritance. After all, these inheritances are strictly guarded secrets. Only with such an identity would you be considered one of us, and only then could we silence the pro-war faction,” the Sixth Prince explained.
“How about this? I will go to the elf race first, and as for the marriage, we can discuss it later. How does that sound?” Lin Yun proposed.
For Lin Yun, the elf race held one other vital thing: the Heart of Origin!
Of course, the resources and inheritance the Sixth Prince mentioned were also genuinely very attractive to Lin Yun.
“Good,” the Sixth Prince agreed.
“By the way, Flying Shadow Golden Lord, Destruction Golden Lord, why not come with me to lie low for a while?” Lin Yun asked, looking at the two of them.
“No need to trouble yourselves. We will stay in the Ancestral Heart Realm. For this period, we will remain hidden,” Destruction Golden Lord and Flying Shadow Golden Lord both replied.
“By the way, Lin Yun, I have one more suggestion. Once you reach supreme, you could establish your own force among the human race to oppose the six major forces. At that time, you could invite Flying Shadow Golden Lord and Destruction Golden Lord to join. With you added, that would make a full three supremes!” the Sixth Prince said.
“That could work,” Lin Yun nodded.
There was no need to create a new force. Lin Yun was already the young master of the Infinite Heavenly Palace. Once he reached supreme, he could raise the banner of the Infinite Heavenly Palace once more.
Although raising the Infinite Heavenly Palace again might invite suppression from the six major forces, he had already offended them to the death. There was no real difference now. Everything that had happened today had already forced Lin Yun into open confrontation with the six major forces ahead of schedule.
