Chapter 846: Chapter 846
Upon hearing the painter's affirmative answer, Lupus couldn't help but show a delighted smile.
When he had told the painter not to underestimate his intelligence network, he really wasn't just putting on airs.
During these years of navigating the Edge World, he not only concealed his own power but also his influence.
The joint strike by the three Cosmic Level Civilizations had shattered his Wanling Sect into pieces, yet the underground organization he secretly formed was still thriving.
The infamous assassin organization [Lian De] within the entire Supernova Battle Group was established by him.
The renowned industrial conglomerate [All Metal] within Titan Industry was also his creation.
The slightly famous troupe [Aurora] and investment company [Zero Degree] within the Rebirth Empire were also founded by him!
Apart from these large companies and organizations, Lupus indirectly controlled dozens of small companies and forces through various means.
The combined power of these companies and forces even far exceeded the Wanling Sect he publicly led.
Over the years, his carefree lifestyle and his ability to navigate smoothly between major forces were thanks in large part to the efforts of this hidden force.
This time, the reason he sought out the painter was because his spy in the Rebirth Empire had sent word, informing him that the painter had fallen out with the Rebirth Empire, and there might be an Angel Envoy behind the painter.
The moment he received this news, Lupus's eyes lit up. Nᴇw novel chapters are publɪshed on novelFire.net
For him, the most urgent matter wasn't to seek trouble with the Supernova Battle Group, Apostle Holy City, or Bai Fu, but to quickly find a way to fully control the Void Lord Core within him.
Once he fully mastered this, his power would advance further. Maybe he couldn't win against the Supreme Divine Disciple of Apostle Holy City, but teaching a lesson to Bai Fu and the Supernova Battle Group would be no problem.
Initially, Lupus's plan was to summon an Angel Envoy through the True Spirit Pillar and then use the envoy's power to help him control the Void Lord Core.
However, the Rebirth Empire suddenly appeared and took the True Spirit Pillar, forcing him to first find a way to retrieve it from their hands.
But now he doesn't have to go through such trouble, since there's already an Angel Envoy behind the painter. If he could just capture this envoy...
The True Spirit Pillar is no longer needed. Isn't cutting out the middleman more satisfying?
Once the Void Lord Core was fully mastered, Lupus's next plan was to target Bai Fu.
"If I can seize the secret treasure she obtained from the Spirit Holy Hall, even the Apostle Holy City wouldn't be a threat!"
Indeed, after being slandered by the Apostle Holy City, Lupus soon realized that the secret treasure from the Spirit Holy Hall was likely in Bai Fu's possession.
But he intentionally did not explain this publicly and instead took the blame for Bai Fu.
This wasn't because he was kind-hearted, and it definitely wasn't because he had any feelings for Bai Fu. He had no time for romantic nonsense; he only wanted to become stronger and crush all who defied him.
Lupus didn't explain because he feared that once the truth came out, others would rush to trouble Bai Fu, thereby taking the secret treasure from the Spirit Holy Hall, making it a hundred times more difficult for him to obtain it.
It's better to let Bai Fu keep the secret treasure for now. Although Bai Fu is growing quickly, she is still just a Dominator, taking something from a Dominator is much simpler than taking from an old fox like Demetri.
Bringing his thoughts back, Lupus immediately piloted his spaceship to meet with the painter.
He couldn't wait to deal with the Angel Envoy behind the painter.
An Angel Envoy is indeed strong, but with the Void Lord Core, he wouldn't be lacking, and he also had the painter's support. If it came down to it, he could spend a fortune to hire Corona.
Corona is quintessentially obsessed with money; as long as enough benefits are offered, he would even beat himself up.
Unexpectedly for Lupus, after speaking with the painter, he learned that the Angel Envoy behind the painter was seemingly severely injured.
Heaven helps those who help themselves!
At this moment, Lupus felt grateful to Bai Fu from the bottom of his heart.
If it weren't for Bai Fu, the painter would never have suddenly exposed the secret of having an Angel Envoy behind them.
The Rebirth Empire bullied him, the Supernova Battle Group humiliated him, the Apostle Holy City pursued him, but only Bai Fu, instead of causing him trouble, even brought such important information!
Lupus decided that when it came to dealing with Bai Fu, he would try to use simple and straightforward methods, thus sparing Bai Fu some pain.
In the capital circle of the Rebirth Empire [Shining Star] space city cluster.
After the spaceship landed, Bai Fu and Demetri headed straight for the Spiritual Ability Research Center.
Inside the research center, she met the important official Bulalo from the Elder Council, as well as some Spiritual Ability Prayer Masters she had met at the Void Realm Research Association headquarters, Curse Master Olson was also among them.
Upon seeing her, Olson approached with an apologetic demeanor: "If it weren't for me building connections, the painter wouldn't have had the chance to attack you."
Bai Fu smiled and said, "Though the process was a bit thrilling, I did acquire the Prayer Card blueprints, so there's no need for you to blame yourself, Curse Master."
She comforted the Curse Master with a few words, at which point Bulalo announced loudly: "Since everyone is here, let's get straight to the point."
The people who had been conversing all fell silent, their gazes turning toward Bulalo.
