Wei Rong

## Introduction

Wei Rong (维容) was from the Armanent Weave, and was the young master of the Wei family which had always produced clever people since ancient times. After being defeated by Lu Yin in a battle of wits, Wei Rong joined Lu Yin alongside Wang Wen to assist Lu Yin with conquering the remaining Outerverse and assist him with future plannings.

Wei Rong, Wang Wen, and Qiong Xi'er were all equally considered the most intelligent within the Outerverse.

## Personality

The Wei family had always produced clever people since ancient times. This was also the reason why, despite the fact that the Wei family having never birthed a single Enlighter, they had nonetheless been able to maintain control of the Armament Weave. This particular generation’s young master was Wei Rong, even terrifying than his predecessors, and his ambition was also larger.

Wei Rong had been more adepted at using schemes and cunning plots to achieve his goals. With the separation of the Innerverse, Wei Rong wanted to start an era which the Outerverse counter-devoured the Innerverse.

He had no fears of the Innerverses organization giants as he believed once he had unified and gained control of the Outerverse, he had many tools and plans at his disposal in order to counter the Innerverse. Wei Rong had caused the Outerverse Lockbreaker Society to collapse (with some interference of the Neohuman Alliance), looted the Sourcepeak Planet, with the true goal of ending of the enormous organizations monopolizing the universe’s power. Only by obliterating the original structure would it be able to build a new one upon its ashes; seizing the treasury, assembling Lockbreakers, and establishing a new era was the first step.

## Story

After the Outerverse had been separated from the Innerverse, Wei Rong had aspirations and dreams to become a pioneer of a new era where he uses his connections to many organizations within the central weaves such as the Moke Sword Sect, the Umbral Butterfly Tribe, the Shadowsword Sect, to launch an offence against the Outerverse Lockbreaker society. Unfortunately for Wei Rong, Lu Yin had already taken the first step as the trialblazer, gain a better benefit from the chaos of the Outerverse Lockbreaker Society's collapse. Lu Yin had also established the Great Eastern Alliance before Wei Rong had a firm foothold at making his own. As the Great Eastern Alliance grew, Wei Rong had already lost initiative for when it comes to the unified powers to mobilize, and with the Ironblood Weave War against the invasion of the Astral Beast Domain, many powers had been weakened, while joining the Great Eastern Alliance.

After the pressure from the Great Eastern Alliance had become too much for the Armament Weave, Wei Rong retreated to Million City. When Lu Yin had been able to recruit Wang Wen into his party, Wang Wen gave Lu Yin a a piece of information which checkmated Wei Rong. Wei Rong admitted defeat and wholeheartly joined Lu Yin's group into unifying the Outerverse.

When Lu Yin accepted the challenge of the Ten Arbiter with many downsides and not much to gain, Wei Rong lament the fact that this was the difference between Lu Yin and Wei Wong. Wei Rong is strictly about calculations of risk, and rewards with the ideology that his connections through his planning will win out, but compared to Lu Yin who could take the extra step of believing in his own strength, Lu Yin gained the mysterious attraction which allows many forces to join his endeavors as strong individual.

He had boldness, intelligence and cunning to back up his ability, but unfortunately he was greatly restricted by his vision. He had believed that causing the Outerverse Lockbreaker Society to collapse would allow the other organizations in the Outerverse to develop in a manner where they dealt with the other colossal organizations like the Mavis Bank or Aurora Enterprises. However, he simply did not understand how monstrous these powers were. On top of that, Wei Rong had disregarded the Hall of Honor.

After Wei Rong had surrendered to Lu Yin, he helped assist Wang Wen and Lu Yin to plan schemes against Lu Yin's opponents. With the Great Eastern Alliance having united the whole Outerverse, they had to prepare their establishment to enter the Innerverse. With the Blaze Realm being destroyed by Lu Yin, had left a vacuum in the Blazing Mist Flowzone which allowed the Ross Empire and the Sylvan Dragon Tribe to be at war to control the remaining space of the Blazing Mist Flowzone. Wei Rong had been the one behind the scene instigating the conflict between the two forces, and dragging in other major forces into the war. Wang Wen had planned three cards for Lu Yin to allow the Great Eastern Alliance to gain the Blazing Mist Flowzone. First card was to include the major force's descendants into the war which creates conflict between the flowzones when these descendants die to others in the war, and unable to unite; second card was to eliminate some of the disagreements of the powerhouses, and the third card was asking for outside aide to deal with the Great Eastern Alliance but was fake. All of these plan were created and mapped out by Wei Rong and Wang Wen after Blaze Realm had been eliminated. The Great Eastern Alliance had stepped into the war and dominated both the Ross Empire and the Sylvan Dragon Tribe, firmly establishing themselves into the Innerverse.

When the Sixth Mainland had forced Lu Yin to exit from the Outerverse, Wei Rong had provided the plan was the mastermind behind the Sixth Mainland getting caught in a war in Ironblood Weave, as Lu Yin had the Fifth Mainland cultivators that were in Ironblood Weave to exit, allowing the Astral Beasts to enter into the Outerverse which the Sixth Mainland had to guard against.

During the war against the Astral Beast Domain, three of the Envoy human cultivators had been captured by Xu Qing, the Commander of the Astral Beast army, Shui Chuanxiao had remarked that both Wei Rong and Xu Qing were similar in terms of scheming individual. Wei Rong replied, "I’d give the three Envoys to the army. First, have them kill the one with the least importance, and then start slowly torturing the others to death. This would instill my army with an understanding of how ruthless I am while also provoking my enemy into trying to rescue the captives. I would next transmit a video of Ling Taizu being tortured to the Human Domain. I would make sure that it was sent to the Lingling clan and many others. At the same time, I’d start spreading rumors that if the Great Eastern Alliance didn’t save the captives, the Lingling clan would get upset with the alliance. I’d even go so far as to spread rumors that the Great Eastern Alliance was doing this in order to eliminate internal instabilities.

"Just think about it: the Great Eastern Alliance has unified the Innerverse, but the Envoys who lead the eight great flowzones are far more powerful than the actual alliance. In fact, why did the Great Eastern Alliance make a move when the Astral Beast Domain invaded the Outerverse? Why is the Innerverse fighting in this war and sacrificing their powerhouses, when it’s the Outerverse and not them being invaded? Most cultivators are both ruthless and only concerned for themselves. Put bluntly, they’re selfish. Who will believe that the Great Eastern Alliance really went out of its way to start this war just to save a bunch of ordinary people living at the fringes of the Human Domain?" This was playing the hearts of the factions involved. The Great Eastern Alliance had left the Innerverse to protect the eastern weaves of the Outerverse, and many people found this reason both ridiculous and unreasonable. They could not understand why the alliance was fighting against the Astral Beast Domain.
