Chapter 1166 Lu Su: My Partner Has Been Poached
This kind of precedent has occurred before.
There are countless instances where mission takers who leave their own worlds have their bases raided by their enemies because they haven't provided adequate protection for their worlds.
This is considered an unspoken rule among mission takers within the Heavenly Path Alliance.
It's normal for a newcomer who hasn't been here long to not know this.
To be honest, even if he hadn't had this twin prehistoric world reminding Sun Wukong today, I believe that with Sun Wukong's intelligence, he would have been able to realize it in no time.
In the end, he got the biggest advantage.
Thinking of this, Lou Yishen's smile became even more composed.
Whether it's speculation about Sun Wukong's identity and origins, or an opportunity to subtly express goodwill towards him.
Their ultimate goal was simply to befriend Sun Wukong and obtain a stable supply of goods from him.
While it's true that the Twin Worlds are rich in resources, Lou Yishen doesn't believe that those resources can compare to the top-grade peaches that Sun Wukong reveals.
Upon learning of Sun Wukong's existence, Lou Yishen had already secretly analyzed and investigated him.
This choice was made after careful consideration.
In fact, as long as Sun Wukong can provide the Snowdrift Guild with a stable and sufficient supply of celestial treasures, it doesn't matter if Sun Wukong wants those two twin worlds.
Unfortunately, Sun Wukong was quite powerful; otherwise, it would have been most cost-effective to simply keep him in his Snowdrift Guild and have him work hard to cultivate various spiritual roots and treasures for him.
Why go to such lengths to gain Sun Wukong's favor?
Lou Yishen, who was silently sighing in his heart, suddenly heard Sun Wukong speak again at this moment.
Sun Wukong muttered, half-complaining, "But... President Lou, your actions are really frightening! Aren't you afraid of being misunderstood as trying to be a bad guy?"
“I believe Mr. Kong won’t misunderstand. If a misunderstanding does occur, it only proves that we are not on the same path, right?” Lou Yishen replied with a smile.
An oppressive aura emanated from the two of them, clashing against each other, neither willing to yield.
Lu Su, standing to the side, felt both helpless and somewhat surprised by the silent standoff between the two.
I feel like a badger in a melon patch, and no matter which way I look, I don't seem to fit in.
However, one thing is clear: Sun Wukong and Lou Yishen reached some kind of tacit understanding. What kind of tacit understanding is it?
A thought flashed through Lu Su's mind, and a bold idea immediately formed in his heart.
He recalled that when he had previously collaborated with the Snowfall Guild to sabotage the Pure Guild, Lou Yishen had secretly asked him about Sun Wukong.
To show off, he took out the top-grade peaches given to him by Sun Wukong, deliberately making the old man surnamed Lou envious.
At the time, he acted indifferently, as if he didn't take it too seriously. Could it be that he had already set his sights on Sun Wukong back then?
If that's the case, wouldn't I be considered to have let a wolf into my house?!
Upon realizing this, Lu Su suddenly felt uneasy and paid little attention to the rest of the conversation.
He had only one thought: to push Sun Wukong aside and make sure that Sun Wukong wouldn't be fooled by Lou Yishen's sweet talk.
Only the Third Guild is the most suitable for Sun Wukong!
In fact, after the cooperation was finalized, Lu Su, who had just seen Lou Yishen off, told Sun Wukong this as soon as possible.
"...In short, don't be fooled by Lou's rhetoric; he definitely has ulterior motives."
Hearing these words, Sun Wukong was speechless for a moment, but he did not refute Lu Su's words.
"But I'm still very curious, what exactly is his purpose? Is it really just to get you and me to cooperate?"
Lu Su stroked his chin, brainstorming and considering various possibilities.
"Maybe he just wanted to remind me to take better care of my original world, lest someone raid it," Sun Wukong joked.
Lu Su bought his hands and exclaimed, "No way? Isn't this common knowledge?"
"Besides, unless someone is particularly inconsiderate, who would bother to cause trouble in a mission participant's own world?"
Although the Heavenly Alliance is quite large, there are actually quite a few mission takers who don't care about such things.
In fact, the reason why these guilds dared to openly target those two twin worlds was because no mission takers had ever appeared in those two twin worlds.
At least, the current archives do not contain any mission numbers from those two twin worlds.
Even the activity level of the Heavenly Dao Alliance forum is relatively low, with little attention.
Therefore, their guild's attempts to target those two worlds were only considered borderline.
If the two worlds on the other side are relatively active and have produced mission takers, they would not dare to defy the world and openly discuss dividing up the contents.
As Lu Su pondered, it suddenly occurred to him that Lou Yishen always had a method to his actions and never acted without a purpose. So... did Sun Wukong really not know about this unspoken rule before?
Sun Wukong didn't bother to hide anything and said directly, "Yes, but I didn't know about this unspoken rule before, so I'm very grateful for Chairman Lou's reminder."
Lu Su: Ah, this... is really awkward.
Feeling inexplicably guilty, Lu Su decided to change the subject.
After handing over the resurrection scroll that he had previously promised to give to Sun Wukong, he left as quickly as if his pants were on fire.
Once everyone who wasn't important had left, Sun Wukong, left alone in the private room, finally stopped smiling.
He nudged his system and asked the system if there was a solution to what was happening.
He told the system very bluntly that he wanted to hide his primordial world, including all the smaller worlds connected to it.
Permanent is best, but if that's not possible, temporary hiding is acceptable.
As long as these quest-doting guilds don't find their tracks and infiltrate to cause trouble, it's fine.
As always, the system was reliable, and within a minute it had listed two solutions.
The first option, which aims to permanently conceal this primordial world from being discovered by the mission guilds within the Heavenly Dao Alliance, has only one possibility: Sun Wukong must reach the Mythical Great Luo.
Once Sun Wukong reaches this level, he can lead the entire prehistoric world to hide deep within the river of time.
If Sun Wukong wanted to, the Heavenly Alliance's Missionaries Guild would never be found.
However, given Sun Wukong's current strength, he still has a long way to go to reach the Mythical Great Luo realm.
Moreover, there simply isn't enough time.
