Chapter 1073: Advance Grade Overlord! Peerless Overlord! (3)
Editor: Atlas Studios
Chu Zhou had long suspected that there were many overlord-level experts hidden in the Human Holy Temple.
“Let’s not talk about how many Overlords are hidden in the Human Holy Temple for now. Let’s just look at the 32 Overlords on the surface.”
The Spring and Autumn Master said in a deep voice as he asked Chu Zhou again, “Chu Zhou, you should know how many Overlords came during the three days of your celebration, right?”
Chu Zhou nodded and said, “A total of 20 people came to the celebration. Among them, there were six from the Infinite Battle Arena, four from the Universe Adventurer Alliance, three from the Universe Galaxy Bank, and three from the Myriad Tribe Chamber of Commerce. There were also the Thunder Clan’s Ancestor and the other four overlords who did not belong to the five giants.”
“Not bad. 20 of them came.”
The Spring and Autumn Master nodded and said, “Excluding you, a new Overlord, we humans have 32 Overlords on the surface. After deducting six from our company, there are already 20 Overlords who have come… There are still six who haven’t come.”
“However, our company has sent invitations to all the Human Overlords.”
Chu Zhou’s heart skipped a beat. “Could it be that these six Overlords are a threat to our company?”
The Spring and Autumn Master nodded with a dark expression. “That’s right. These six people joined forces to establish the Sanctuary Alliance. All these years, they have been secretly working to rope in ambitious cosmic nations and factions. They want to replace us and become one of the five giants.”
Chu Zhou was slightly stunned when he heard the words ‘Sanctuary Alliance’.
He suddenly recalled the ‘Saint’ token he had once obtained.
The ‘Saint’ token was obtained by killing Universe Lord Ming Luo’s clone in the forbidden area of the Nine Mountains Royal Family.
He had even asked his teacher about the origins of King Bei Cang’s ‘Saint’ token.
However, his teacher had said that he wasn’t a Universe Lord yet and wasn’t qualified to know the inside story of the ‘Saint’ token.
Later on, he was busy with other matters and forgot about the ‘Saint’ token.
“Teacher… That ‘Saint’ token…”
Chu Zhou looked at his teacher, King Bei Cang.
King Bei Cang knew what Chu Zhou wanted to ask. He nodded slightly and said, “That’s right. The ‘Saint’ token you obtained back then came from the Sanctuary Alliance. Only human experts who joined the Sanctuary Alliance can have the ‘Saint’ token.”
“…The Sanctuary Alliance is huge, but you weren’t even a Universe Lord back then. Therefore, I didn’t let you understand the Sanctuary Alliance in depth.”
Chu Zhou understood.
However, he had another question in his heart.
Among the five giants of humanity, the Infinite Battle Arena had the Martial Ancestor overseeing it, so its strength was undoubtedly the strongest.
However, their Mirror Universe corporation was not weak either. Even after the death of the True Night Master, they still had a total of six Universe Overlords. The number of Overlords was more than the other three giant organizations.
In other words, the overall strength of their Mirror Universe Company was second only to the Infinite Battle Arena.
Why did Sanctuary Alliance target their company and not the other three giant forces?
Chu Zhou voiced his doubts.
The Spring and Autumn Master was silent for a moment before saying solemnly, “If I’m not wrong, not only does the Sanctuary Alliance want to become one of the five giants… but they also have their eyes on the Mirror Universe network controlled by our company.”
“You should know how important the Mirror Universe network is. It can be said that as long as you master the Mirror Universe network… it’s basically equivalent to mastering more than 99% of the intelligence and information of us humans.”
“What’s more, the Mirror Universe network not only involves intelligence and information, but also all aspects of us humans…”
Chu Zhou was shocked.
Indeed, the Mirror Universe network was too important to humans.
No matter which faction controlled the Mirror Universe network, they could quickly grasp all aspects of humanity.
“Martial Ancestor, do you know about the existence of the Sanctuary Alliance and its ambitions?” Chu Zhou asked.
“Of course I know. It’s impossible to hide it from the Saint,” said the Spring and Autumn Master.
“Then… Martial Ancestor, why didn’t you stop the Sanctuary Alliance?” Chu Zhou frowned and immediately realized that things were not as simple as he had imagined.
Spring and Autumn Master, King Bei Cang, Caged Dragon Master, and company all smiled bitterly.
“Chu Zhou, the position of the Martial Ancestor is basically the same as the position of the Human Holy Temple. The Martial Ancestor will not interfere in the internal conflicts of the Human Race.”
“Of course, as a member of the Infinite Battle Arena, if the Infinite Battle Arena is threatened, the Martial Ancestor will definitely attack.”
The Heart Light Master explained to Chu Zhou.
“This…” Chu Zhou was slightly stunned. “Could it be that the Martial Ancestor doesn’t know that if our Mirror Universe corporation goes to war with the Sanctuary Alliance, the losses will cause the overall strength of our human race to weaken?”
“Of course the Martial Ancestor knows. However, he will still choose to be like the Human Holy Temple and ignore it,” the Heart Light Master said solemnly.
“Why?” Chu Zhou found it hard to understand.
“Perhaps the Martial Ancestor and the Human Holy Temple all think that the internal power structure of our human race should not be like stagnant water, eternally unchanging, class solidified, and then slowly Decay. Instead, it should be like flowing water, constantly flowing and changing, and changing. Only then can we maintain our vitality.”
The Spring and Autumn Master sighed with emotion.
“In fact, the rule of the Saint and the Human Holy Temple not interfering in the competition and replacement of the internal forces of the Human Race was set by Emperor Xi and the Martial Ancestor together.”
“Therefore, no wonder the Martial Ancestor didn’t interfere.”
“Lord Emperor Xi and the Martial Ancestor are standing on the heights of all mankind and looking at the problems of us humans. Their thoughts should be right.”
“However, this is the logic… However, when it’s our turn, we can’t treat it calmly either.”
Chu Zhou fell silent.
Indeed!
At different heights, the attitudes towards problems were different.
Different positions would have different reactions to problems.
Everyone was like this.
A moment later, a sharp look flashed across his eyes.
The help of the Mirror Universe corporation was the reason why he could achieve his current achievements so smoothly.
When he was in danger several times, it was the company that mobilized experts to resolve it for him.
Moreover, his teacher and friends were in the company.
No matter what, he would never watch helplessly as the Mirror Universe corporation was replaced by other forces.
“The Sanctuary Alliance? Hehe, you actually want to replace our Mirror Universe corporation… Let me see how capable you are.”
Chu Zhou smiled coldly. A murderous aura gathered in his eyes.
