After saying that, Lu An got up and left his seat under Wang Wei's startled gaze. He then walked towards the corridor outside the hall.
Watching Lu An leave, Wang Wei did not know what to do for a while. After sitting for a while, Wang Wei felt that she could not sit any longer. So, she also got up and walked out of the hall.
Wang Wei was worried that Lu An would leave. However, when she walked to the corridor, she found that Lu An had not left. He was sitting on a chair in the corridor. Wang Wei breathed a sigh of relief. She then walked towards Lu An and sat down beside Lu An.
"Aren't you bored sitting here?" Wang Wei asked in a soft voice.
Although Lu An was still meditating, when he heard Wang Wei's voice, he opened his eyes and turned to look at Wang Wei. He then said, "It's okay."
"If you don't like listening to music here, we can go somewhere else." Wang Wei said. She then wanted to take Lu An's arm and get up with Lu An.
Lu An did not avoid her, but he also did not get up. Since Lu An did not get up, Wang Wei naturally could not get up.
"You and I are straightforward people. If you have something to say, just say it." Lu An looked at Wang Wei and said, "I am not angry. As long as you make it clear what I should and should not do during the mission, I will not cross the line. The next time I negotiate with Yang Yan, I will say whatever you say. Is that okay? "
Lu An's words caught Wang Wei off guard. So, she was a little stunned for a while. However, she quickly recovered and said to Lu An, "Okay."
"We don't have to waste time here." Lu An said, "Tell me when we will act again. I want to go back and rest."
"Four days later at noon." Wang Wei said.
"I will see you in the morning four days later." Lu An got up and said, "Can we go now?"
Lu An and Wang Wei could not part ways in this city. So, they had to pretend to be real. So, they needed to go to a place to stay. Soon, the two of them used the Teleportation Array to arrive at the star where they were staying. Lu An then said to Wang Wei, "Goodbye."
With that, Lu An activated the teleportation array and left.
After Lu An left, Wang Wei did not immediately leave the star. Instead, she took a deep breath and cleared her mind.
Today's events had truly caused her mind to be in a mess. Now that Lu An had left, she could finally calm down and think. She didn't expect herself to be so emotional today. This was a big taboo when carrying out a mission.
However … it was a good thing that she had reached an agreement with this Chu Xing. Chu Xing was also willing to listen to her orders and do things. Otherwise, if this matter continued to be debated, who knew when it would end. And this also showed that … Chu Xing himself didn't care about the contents of the report. To him, it was purely to complete the mission.
Even someone as calm as herself had been angered to this extent by Lu An. Suddenly, Wang Wei began to understand her sister and Han Qing's rejection of Chu Xing. Although there was nothing wrong with Chu Xing's character, he couldn't be bothered with appearances. It could be said that he completely displayed the coldness in his heart. He didn't know how to disguise himself and didn't know how to maintain a harmonious appearance. And this was perhaps the most important reason why Chu Xing was a loner and not suited to socializing with others.
This time, Chu Xing had taken the initiative to give in. The next time they met, it wouldn't be too late for her to treat him better.

Heavenly Star River, Fu Clan's frontline headquarters.
After Lu An left Wang Wei, he immediately came here and stayed with Fu Yu in her room. He told his wife all the information he had obtained from Yang Yan and Wang Wei. When Fu Yu heard that the stone tablet in Jiang Ping's hand actually had a picture on it, her starry eyes flashed.
After listening to Lu An, Fu Yu then said softly, "The time of the Zong Xing fragment has been investigated. It's about sixty to eighty thousand years ago."
Lu An was stunned. This time period was much shorter than what Yang Yan had said! Yang Yan had said twenty to eighty thousand years ago. Indeed, the Hachiko clan's knowledge of Hanyu was not something the other stars could compare to.
"The Fu Clan has already sent people to investigate which star stream the Zong Xing belongs to. If there are no accidents, we will be able to find the stream of stars much faster than the other stars." Fu Yu said, "As for the picture on the stone tablet, it is indeed very important. It's best if you can see it during the next transaction."
Lu An's heart trembled. Indeed, if the next transaction wasn't like this one, Lu An wouldn't be able to see the picture on the paper. Thus, he had to think of a way to see it without arousing Wang Wei's suspicion.
"I have a suggestion for you," Fu Yu said.
Lu An was slightly stunned and immediately said, "Go ahead."
"Don't limit yourself to the Jiang clan's Fourth Young Master's sphere of influence. This way, it will be too slow to obtain information." Fu Yu said, "The so-called Fourth Young Master is just a stepping stone. We don't want to find out the background of the Fourth Young Master, but we want to obtain more information about the past ninety thousand years. Even the fourth-ranked person in the Jiang Clan has so much information, much less the others and the entire Jiang Clan. You should find an opportunity to communicate with the other powers within the Jiang Clan. This way, you will be able to obtain more information faster. "
Hearing his wife's words, Lu An was slightly surprised. Actually, he had always thought that his actions were fast enough and that he had obtained enough information. However, he didn't expect that in his wife's eyes, he was still very slow. His wife's judgment was naturally based on her experience and considerations. His understanding of information couldn't be compared to his wife's, so he immediately nodded and said, "Alright, I understand."
"Of course, safety first." Fu Yu said, "You must be careful, husband."
"Mm." Lu An nodded and left the Fu Clan's front line headquarters.

Heavenly Star River, Immortal Planet.
Tripartite Alliance Headquarters, Liu Yi's office. After Lu An left Fu Yu's office, he immediately appeared in this room. He explained the entire mission to Liu Yi in great detail. He even told her what was useful and what was not, including Wang Wei's attitude. After all, Liu Yi wasn't as busy as Fu Yu. She would be able to give him a lot of advice if she listened more. After he finished speaking, Lu An didn't waste any time. He immediately left to cultivate in seclusion and wait for the four days to come.
After Lu An left, Liu Yi naturally kept thinking about what her husband should do next. After all, moving in the Spirit Race was like dancing on the tip of a knife. Even if nothing happened now, no one knew when it would happen. She had to consider all possibilities to ensure Lu An's safety and to make herself feel slightly more at ease.
Madam had told her husband to use the Fourth Young Master as a stepping stone to get in touch with more members of the Jiang Clan. This made Liu Yi feel that the Hachiko clan was more anxious than she had imagined. In her opinion, there were only three people that the Jiang Clan could use: Wang Wei, Jiang Zhen, and Jiang Xin.
Among them, Jiang Zhen was the most difficult to use. After all, Jiang Zhen was the Fourth Young Master's confidant and would definitely be loyal and devoted. Next was Wang Wei. Wang Wei was a collaborator outside the clan. In essence, it was just a cooperative relationship. If there were better conditions, Wang Wei might help Lu An. The easiest person to help Lu An was the Fourth Young Master's daughter, Jiang Xin.
Of course, Jiang Xin wouldn't really help Lu An out of the kindness of her heart. However, Jiang Xin could do something bad and let Lu An meet more members of the Jiang Clan. However … this would require Lu An to do something.
Liu Yi seriously considered the possibility of using Jiang Xin. However, not long after she started thinking, a figure suddenly appeared in the office. It was Xu Yunyan.
"Alliance Master," Xu Yunyan bowed to Liu Yi and said, "everything is ready."
Upon hearing this, Liu Yi stopped thinking in her sea of consciousness and looked up at Xu Yunyan. Naturally, she knew what Xu Yunyan was talking about. She asked faintly, "Where is she?"
"In the pavilion where she lives," Xu Yunyan said.
Liu Yi nodded slightly, stood up, and said, "Let's go."
Liu Yi walked out from behind the table, but Xu Yunyan was obviously hesitant. After thinking for a while, she said, "Alliance Master, if we fail and Alliance Master Lu finds out what we did … I'm afraid he will be angry, right?"
Liu Yi stopped in her tracks and looked at Xu Yunyan. Xu Yunyan was slightly startled and realized that she might have said something wrong.
However, Liu Yi didn't blame Xu Yunyan. On the contrary, she was very satisfied that Xu Yunyan dared to say this.
"There's nothing without risk. It's just a choice," Liu Yi said. "If we really do something wrong, I'm willing to bear the consequences."
"Yes." Xu Yunyan's heart skipped a beat. The Alliance Master really loved Alliance Master Lu.
Then, Liu Yi and Xu Yunyan left the pavilion together and flew to another pavilion.
