Lu Yin and Nan Yuan stared at each other. "Are you questioning my candidate, Overseer Nan Yuan?"

"Yes." Nan Yuan was direct with his answer. He represented the Seven Courts and the Xia family, which meant that he was able to completely disregard Lu Yin’s influence. Regardless of how much clout Lu Yin amassed within the overseers’ council, it was impossible for Nan Yuan to be removed from his position. Arch-Elder Zen would never allow such a thing, as it would create too many conflicts with the Seven Courts.

This was what gave Nan Yuan the confidence to directly confront Lu Yin.

"Overseer Nan Yuan, do you even know who Lei Qingqing is?" Lu Yin asked in an odd tone. He suspected that Nan Yuan had no idea who Lei Qingqing was. In fact, Lu Yin was confident that no one in the entire room had ever heard Lei Qingqing’s name before.

Nan Yuan simply replied, "I don\'t."

Lu Yin then looked over at Yang Ji, Si Hong, and the other overseers. "Do any of you?"

The all shook their heads as they blankly stared at Lu Yin.

Nan Yuan sneered. "An overseer is supposed to represent an entire region of the Human Domain! How can an unknown person ever be allowed to become an overseer?"

"Lei Qingqing is the leader of a group of mercenaries in the Cosmic Sea. She’s also known as Leon’s Armada’s Big Sis. Her real name is Lei Qingqing," Xin Jiao slowly stated.

Lu Yin had actually forgotten that Xin Jiao was also someone from the Cosmic Sea, so she would naturally know about the influential people from the same region. However, she was the only overseer who had heard of Lei Qingqing before. However, this was nothing strange, as there were very few people even in Leon’s Armada who had heard the name “Lei Qingqing” before.

Clearly, no one had any idea who Lei Qingqing was, but Big Sis was far from an unknown name. She was one of the biggest reasons behind Lu Yin’s first rise to power.

"So she’s just an interstellar pirate! In what era could a pirate qualify to become an overseer?" Nan Yuan mocked.

Lu Yin indifferently replied, "She’s a mercenary. An interstellar mercenary. Big Sis’s crew is a formally registered mercenary team."

He stared at Nan Yuan. "Overseer Nan Yuan, you just insulted a mercenary group by calling them pirates. That will upset the mercenary association."

Nan Yuan\'s expression turned grim, and he slightly leaned forward. "Big Sis’s mercenary squad belongs to Leon’s Armada, and everyone knows what they are!"

"Oh? What are they? Tell me." Lu Yin smiled as he stared at the man.

Nan Yuan wanted to comment about how Leon’s Armada was a pirate crew, but he suddenly stopped himself. There was actually no evidence that Leon’s Armada was a pirate crew. While everyone was aware that Highsage Leon was the Pirate King, who would provide real evidence to support accusations against the man? A Pirate King was not something one chose to be, but was rather a title that was given by others.

Nan Yuan desperately wanted to accuse Leon’s Armada of being a pirate crew, but doing so would be no different from validating a position held by a powerful man who was idealized by countless people. This was not a reasonable thing to do.

How could a title that was nothing more than a concept that had never been formally recognized or bestowed be treated as a real thing?

Nan Yuan spent a good bit of time struggling to find the right words.

Highsage Leon had repeatedly proclaimed himself as the Pirate King, but what of it? Was Nan Yuan supposed to drag Highsage Leon before the overseers’ council and force him to admit such a thing? The threat of death was what kept Nan Yuan’s mouth shut, as he was terrified that Highsage Leon would kill him with a single slap.

In his desperation, Nan Yuan had no choice but to say, "We have dismissed two overseers today, as well as confirmed a new one. Such sudden changes to the overseers’ council are rare throughout the council’s entire history. Any further proposals for dismissals or new appointments of overseers need to be delayed. None, none of us want an unknown person to join us as our final overseer."

His words held a great deal of merit.

Si Hong was the first to agree to Nan Yuan’s proposal. Si Hong was not one of Lu Yin’s people, and while he had fully supported San Liang becoming an overseer, Si Hong did not actually belong to any faction on the council.

Yang Ji also quickly agreed.

Right after that, Zi Jing voiced her approval as well.

The rest of the overseers were all Lu Yin\'s people, so he could attempt to force his proposal, but that would be no different from publicly announcing that he completely controlled the overseers’ council. Lu Yin was worried that doing so would incite Arch-Elder Zen’s ire.

The meeting ended with the proposal to raise Lei Qingqing up as an overseer being postponed, and the Hall of Honor prepared to send someone to investigate the woman. The proposal would only be addressed after the investigation was completed.

Lu Yin was absolutely certain that Nan Yuan would take this time to search for a potential candidate to replace Mr. You on the overseers’ council.

At the moment, Leon’s Armada reigned over almost the entire Cosmic Sea, so it would not be an easy task to find an overseer who could represent the Cosmic Sea while not being under Highsage Leon’s thumb. The only possibility that Lu Yin could think of was the mysterious Soldier Crew.

The meeting concluded with Liu Ran and Mr. You both being removed from their positions while Lu Yin became a new overseer.

These results shocked everyone once word of the meeting’s results spread.

Mt. Microcosms was the first place to receive word of what had transpired. No one had expected Lu Yin to suddenly become an overseer. It was common knowledge that, while all the Hall of Honor’s overseers were influential people, they were also people without any real power. Yang Ji had been the sole exception, but at this moment, Lu Yin had overturned the entire board.

The overseers’ council had changed.

When the news spread out from Mt. Microcosms and reached the various Neoverse powers, there were different reactions from each organization.

The person who found this matter the most bizarre was Yunying Mavis. She had already had her own plans in mind when she proposed an alliance to Lu Yin. She had believed that Lu Yin’s chances of getting his Great Eastern Alliance into the Neoverse were nonexistent.

After all, the Neoverse was not the Innerverse. Not only were the two separated by the Cosmic Sea, but the behemoth powers of the Neoverse were also not easy to deal with. Any organization that was qualified to maintain a place in the Neoverse could not be simple.

Even if Lu Yin did manage to lead his Great Eastern Alliance into the Neoverse, it would take him a very long time.

Naturally, Yunying Mavis had not expected Lu Yin to become an overseer right after leaving her Mavis family. It was not an easy task to become an overseer, and this suggested that Lu Yin actually controlled the overseers’ council. This meant that it was entirely possible for him to lead the Great Eastern Alliance into the Neoverse.

What sort of impact would this have on the Neoverse? Yunying Mavis could not even begin to guess.

Why was Arch-Elder Zen so lenient with Lu Yin? Was the situation really as the rumors described it? Was Arch-Elder Zen supporting Lu Yin?

If he really is able to bring the Great Eastern Alliance into the Neoverse, then… Yunying Mavis looked at the agreement she had signed with Lu Yin. It was clear that the value of this alliance to Lu Yin was simply too great, but just how would he take advantage of it?

Yunying Mavis had a sudden headache.

As soon as the Mavis family learned that Lu Yin had become an overseer, many of them hurried over to speak with their matriarch.

"Even if we had known that he was about to become an overseer, we still needed to establish an alliance with him. This is something that had to happen regardless," Yunying Mavis stated very firmly while being confronted by many members of her family.

…

After becoming an overseer, Lu Yin’s first stop was to meet with Arch-Elder Zen, but Lu Yin was informed that the Semi-Progenitor had gone into seclusion. Lu Yin wondered if the old man simply did not want to see him.

Lu Yin felt a bit uncertain, so he made a trip to the Arbitration World to speak with the Chief Justice, but his senior brother was also in seclusion.

In the end, Lu Yin spoke to Mu En.

Mu En was solemn when he spoke to Lu Yin. "The Chief Justice has been in seclusion ever since he returned from Venom Flowzone. He has not come out a single time."

"Really?" Lu Yin\'s eyes flickered. This had to be related to the black crystal that had been found. The Chief Justice had answered Lu Yin’s call once during this time, though he had ended up ignoring Lu Yin instead of giving him an actual answer.

Mu En felt rather curious. "Lu-"

He suddenly stopped, as he no longer knew how to refer to Lu Yin.

Lu Yin smiled and said, "Judicial Commissioner, you can just call me-"

He intended to say that Mu En could call him Little Seven, but as soon as Lu Yin thought about his relationship with Mu En, he no longer knew what to suggest.

Both of the men suddenly stopped talking.

Mu En pursed his lips. "Overseer Lu, I have a question, but I’m not sure how to bring it up."

"Please speak freely, Judicial Commissioner," Lu Yin spoke politely.

Mu En still took a while to process his thoughts. "After the Chief Justice returned from Venom Flowzone, he did not inform anyone where he was headed to next. Is there a chance our Chief Justice got injured while he was in Venom Flowzone?"

Lu Yin was caught off guard by this question. "Why would you think that?"

Mu En grew somber. "My Interstellar Supreme Court has people everywhere in the universe. While the Chief Justice was gone, a strange phenomenon was observed in Venom Flowzone where a starry expanse of space changed into a brightly light sky. This is very similar to the phenomenon that appears when our Chief Justice takes action. Many people have begun speculating that our lord was fighting against a powerful opponent in Venom Flowzone, which was why people were able to see such a thing. If this is true, his opponent must have been a terrifying powerhouse.”

Mu En’s voice suddenly dropped very low. “It would have most likely have been one of the Seven Skygods."

Lu Yin\'s eyes glinted. "Each of the Seven Skygods are Semi-Progenitors."

Mu En shook his head. “So what if they are Semi-Progenitors? The strength of the members of the Interstellar Supreme Court cannot be judged by the standards of their peers, and the best example of this is the Shadow of Death. For the Chief Justice to have displayed his power in such a fashion, he most likely faced one of the Seven Skygods. Though, his opponent may have also been another Semi-Progenitor, such as one from the Sixth Mainland."

Lu Yin shrugged. "I’m sorry, but the Chief Justice told me to keep that matter to myself, so I can’t tell you anything."

Mu En smiled. "In that case, I’ll stop with my questions. I would like to thank Overseer Lu on behalf of Da Qiu. If it is not for you, Da Qiu certainly would have failed to become an Envoy, and my Interstellar Supreme Court would have lost an expert."

Lu Yin smiled. "I only helped as much as I was able to.

“I should head on out."

Mu En nodded, but after Lu Yin had only gone a short ways, the Judicial Commissioner suddenly said, "Overseer Lu, I heard that the Sea King is currently in your Great Eastern Alliance, no?"

Lu Yin stopped and turned around to look at Mu En, wondering why the man had mentioned the Sea King. "That’s right."

"It’s just a small matter, but there is a bit of a disagreement between the Sea King and the Chief Justice. Keeping the Sea King close might strain matters between you and the Chief Justice," Mu En stated.

Lu Yin instantly became curious. "How could the Sea King have any sort of disagreement with the Chief Justice? They aren’t from the same generation, are they?"

Mu En sighed. "The Sea King’s father, the former master of the Starfall Sea, was from the same era as the Chief Justice. The two of them had a falling out, and that matter continued on to the next generation. However, it is a matter that is difficult to resolve, so keeping the Sea King close may create tension between you and the Chief Justice. It’s not my place to say anything further, but you should be careful about this."

"Thank you for the warning." Lu Yin felt truly grateful. Mu En had not needed to mention anything at all to Lu Yin, but he had deliberately done so anyway. Lu Yin was someone whom the Chief Justice had openly taken care of and had a good relationship with. Mu En had never considered that the two could be fellow disciples. This relationship meant that nothing would change between the two even if the Sea King ended up becoming Lu Yin’s father-in-law.

After leaving the Arbitration World, Lu Yin made his way to CyNet World to speak with Zi Jing for quite a long time. After that, he went to see Li.

Li started to panic when he saw Lu Yin approaching, as he assumed that Lu Yin was coming to make trouble. Why else would Lu Yin seek out someone like Li? The protector could not understand why such a lofty figure would be so petty as to come after him.

"Where is the First Protector? I want to speak with him," Lu Yin stated after finding Li.

Li started to panic even more. Is he going to file a complaint about him?

"Alliance Leader Lu, this lowly one was the one who was blind and foolish! I shouldn\'t have offended you! Please, show mercy and let this lowly one go! I promise that I will never cross you or step in your path again! I promise-"

Lu Yin raised a hand to cut the man off. "I’m looking to speak with the First Protector. I don’t have the time to make things difficult for you, so can you just tell me where your senior is?"

Li released a sigh of relief. So Lu Yin was not looking to make trouble for him! "The First- the First Protector has gone into seclusion."

Lu Yin stared at Li. "What was that?"

Li trembled. "The First- the First Protector gave us orders to let the world know that he’s gone into seclusion for the moment."
