Chapter 841 An Intriguing Gathering

Regardless of the era.

What ordinary people can see is only what the big shots who control the rules want ordinary people to see.

The information shared by the so-called information-sharing ring is nothing more than what the big boss behind the Dark Rising Society wants ordinary members to see, content that facilitates missions.

Xi Yue's search was completely worthless.

This girl is still too inexperienced; she actually trusted the ring that Anxing gave her so much.

Lin Yi didn't offer much explanation.

Instead, he used the ring given to him by Anxing to activate the projection, projecting the location of Ant Star in a holographic manner.

Pointing to the map in front of him, Lin Yi patiently asked:

On Ant Star, there may be members of the Dark Society.

Are there any Dark Xinghui among the fifty planets adjacent to Ant Star?

The ring that Dark Star gives you has one advantage.

It can locate the positions of members of the same organizational level and make contact with them.

Lin Yi destroyed many planets, but ultimately did not bring any substantial contribution to Dark Xing.

His proactive attitude only earned him a second review from Zi Yue, but it couldn't fully gain the approval of the higher-ups at Anxing. Therefore, Lin Yi's ring privileges remained unchanged.

Although Xi Yue didn't understand what Lin Yi was trying to prove, she still carefully examined the situation following Lin Yi's instructions.

It was only when I looked that I discovered something.

Just as Lin Yi said, there was no trace of the Dark Xing Society among the dozens of planets surrounding Ant Star.

Over the years, the existence of Dark Rising has never been detected by the gods, and the members of Dark Rising know that it is very safe.

But is this claim true?

Choosing a planet untouched by Dark Star seems like a risky gamble, but would Dark Star's higher-ups really make such a move?

Putting that aside, over the years, Dark Rise has absorbed more and more powerful individuals, yet the number of powerful individuals in Dark Rise hasn't increased to the point that the gods of the heavens can find a trace of them. Is that scientifically possible?

Lin Yi's idea was somewhat far-fetched, but he couldn't think of any other possibilities.

"You mean this gathering isn't to honor outstanding members, but rather it's dangerous?"

After some thought, Xi Yue finally realized that something was wrong.

Lin Yi nodded.

"That's not entirely true, I just think so."

So, are we still going or not?

If I'm going, of course I have to go.

Anxing is a big tree, a big tree that one can rely on.

Although we don't know what the big tree's intention is in sending out such an invitation, one thing is certain.

People with ability and value are the ones who survive to the end.

Unfortunately, Lin Yi is just that kind of person.

As for what the higher-ups are planning, only by going there in person can one see for oneself.

The time mentioned in the letter arrived quickly.

On this day, Lin Yi and Xi Yue attended the event in their finest attire.

Everyone wore a little blue dress, exuding elegance.

When the two arrived at the agreed location, the dome-shaped inn on Planet Ant had already gathered powerful individuals from hundreds of planets.

Each of them wore clothing from their own planet, and coupled with the unique confidence of the strong, they made the atmosphere in the inn exceptionally hot.

However, the moment Lin Yi and Xi Yue appeared hand in hand, they successfully drew everyone's attention.

It's not just the appearance of the two young people, but also their age.

Especially Lin Yi, at the age of twenty, already has the qualifications to go toe-to-toe with the experts present. Who wouldn't take such a young man seriously?

Those who receive an invitation must be incredibly capable.

In a room filled with middle-aged and elderly people, it was difficult to avoid attracting attention. Under the watchful eyes of numerous powerful figures, Lin Yi took his seat.

On the table were special delicacies that had been prepared in advance.

The entire venue was very spacious.

It can accommodate a full five hundred small tables and chairs.

Only one or two members of the Dark Xing faction from each planet typically attend.

Therefore, accommodating a thousand people in the entire venue is not a problem at all.

If needed, just tell the waiter. In this inn on a technologically underdeveloped planet, Anxing has booked the entire place for his members to have a blast.

The shop owner's skills are excellent; besides the exquisite presentation, the taste is absolutely superb.

Many powerful figures praised the leaders for their good taste in choosing such a planet.

Lin Yi was very satisfied with the meal. Despite not being a foodie, he even tried a few more dishes.

After three rounds of wine, five flavors of food.

When everyone has almost finished eating, there will always be some shills who will stand up and, fueled by alcohol, share their experiences in Anxing. They will almost always embellish their stories and boast about them with great enthusiasm and confidence.

As for Lin Yi and Xi Yue, they remained calm throughout, as if they were waiting for something.

Everything unfolded exactly as Lin Yi had predicted.

This gathering was far more than just a simple team-building activity.

Just as everyone was getting into the swing of things, ten waiters pushed out a huge screen.

Following the client's instructions, the projection was then initiated using a special ring.

The purple beam of light flashed, and a clear image appeared before everyone's eyes.

In that instant, the noisy venue fell silent.

In the image, a man whose features are hidden in the darkness sits upright at a desk.

He cleared his throat and began to introduce himself.

After introducing their names and positions, the man began to praise them, affirming the performance of the members of Anxing during this period.

They also selected several members of Anxing who had made outstanding contributions and gave them special introductions.

At this moment, Ziyue was observing the entire venue from the shadows.

Beside her was a long-haired man of equal strength.

However, judging from their attire, it is clear that the two are not on the same team.

"If I'm not mistaken, you're looking at the same person as me."

Zi Yue was extremely bored and was tossing the token in her hand.

The man next to him was taken aback.

He clearly hadn't expected Ziyue to observe him so closely.

"Hey, it's been years. You've missed me, haven't you? I'll say it again: if you want to be with me, leave Anxing. We'll get good treatment. Become my woman, and I'll give you 30% of my resources. How about today?"

The man's words left Ziyue speechless.

This guy in front of me has annoyed me for centuries, and he's still the same.

"Ha, I'm too lazy to argue with you about these boring topics."

Zi Yue put away the token and looked down at Lin Yi under the dome.

"What kind of person do you think that kid is?"

From the start of the banquet, Lin Yi and Xi Yue stood out from the crowd.

In such a situation, it's hard not to attract attention.

"This kid is very mature. His reaction was quite unexpected. It was as if he had seen through all the arrangements. But that's impossible. In the hundreds of years since I took over this banquet, very few people have left alive. Moreover, those who left have long become the backbone of your secret organization. There's no need to tell this kid about this banquet."

The long-haired man said with a serious expression.
