"Chaos City Lord, my disciple was assassinated by Zerg..." Yang Hao explained to Chaos City Lord what just happened.

There is no way, he can't handle this matter, because it takes Universe Master to resurrect his disciple.

"I already know, and I'm on my way here." Chaos City Lord took control of Virtual Universe Company Headquarters's clone and set off immediately.

"You just said that Aoshi Race was the team assigned by Virtual Universe Company to help complete the Li Hao mission. The leader King Zhou Shu carried a Immortal Level Zerg Mother Nest?" Yang Hao asked.

"Yes, teacher, that's the situation." Huiyun nodded and replied, "Zerg's spies may be very deep in hiding, and they can actually send strong men to assassinate their junior brothers in this way."

"Fortunately, the teacher made preparations in advance and asked me to protect my junior brother in secret." Huiyun said.

"Well... you did a good job, but I feel a little wronged to you." Yang Hao nodded. Huiyun reacted very quickly and killed his junior brother in time, avoiding Soul Enslavement.

"What's wrong with this? I practice wherever I go, and I practice while secretly protecting my junior brother." Huiyun said immediately, "Besides, junior brother will not stay in Domain Lord Level for too long. A thousand years at most is only a moment for me."

For a Limit King strongman who has survived for tens of thousands of epochs, one thousand years is indeed a very short time. However, it is a bit unfair to be able to secretly protect a Domain Lord Level genius with such an identity.

"Anyway, you did a great job."

Then the master and apprentice quietly waited for the arrival of Chaos City Lord.

Boom!

Chaos City Lord's Divine Body clone, which was nearly 10,000 kilometers away, suddenly appeared!

I thought the teacher's ten-kilometer-long Divine Body was already huge, but I didn't expect that the great existence that suddenly appeared in front of me, Divine Body, was even more gigantic.

"Is this Universe Master?" Huiyun thought to himself.

"This is Chaos City Lord, Controller of our Virtual Universe Company, and one of the pillars of mankind." Yang Hao secretly transmitted the message to explain to his disciples.

"Chaos City Lord!" Yang Hao nodded.

"I've seen Universe Master!" Huiyun immediately saluted respectfully.

"Well, you're welcome. I already have some clues about this assassination. The situation is very serious!" Chaos City Lord frowned.

Even he said it was a very serious incident. You can imagine how many powerful people were involved behind it.

"I'll resurrect your disciple first." Chaos City Lord said, "You guys stay back first while I cast Reverse Time and Space. Stay out of the range to avoid being affected."

Reverse Time and Space, when used, causes too much movement, forcing a strong person from the past to the present, and Universe Master will also be injured as a result. If the injury is serious and the power is lost too much, it will be a rare opportunity to kill Universe Master.

Unless you are very trustworthy, Universe Master will usually be used secretly.

However, for Chaos City Lord, his clone Divine Body is huge, and he has resurrected another Domain Lord, so the impact on Reverse Time and Space is minimal.

"Get up!" Chaos City Lord raised his hand, and time began to rewind rapidly within a certain range of time and space around him.

It's like replaying a movie in reverse, replaying events that happened in the past one by one at an extremely fast speed, such as the conversation between Yang Hao and Huiyun just now, as well as the previous battles, etc.

Everything that happened to Reverse Time and Space is illusory and is only for reference by Universe Master.

"Fix!" Chaos City Lord freezes time and space at the moment before Li Hao survives and dies.

In an instant, an invisible force quickly enveloped Li Hao, protecting him.

"Back!"

Boom...

The time and space that originally regressed to this moment quickly began to return.

Universe has the ability to self-recover. When Universe Master performs Reverse Time and Space, Universe itself will start to return.

And everything that Reverse Time and Space has gone through at every point in time should no longer exist in the present. If it is forcibly protected, it will naturally be counterattacked by Universe. This is also the reason why Universe Master's resurrected strong man will be injured.

"It hurts! It hurts! It hurts!" Li Hao screamed, countless pains fell on him.

On the way back in time and space, Universe's backlash can easily kill him with every wave of backlash. Reverse Time and Space's resurrection violates the rules of Universe and will be punished. This punishment can only be borne by Universe Master.

Fortunately, the severe pain only lasted for a short period of time and returned to the present moment.

After everything returned to normal, Li Hao, who had been killed, returned to the current time node. Suddenly, the previous memories quickly poured in, and everything was restored in his heart.

"I actually died once!" Li Hao recalled the previous incident. He didn't expect to be assassinated. He was almost killed by Zerg Immortal Level Queen Soul Enslavement. Fortunately, Senior Sister protected him secretly and decisively killed him.

"Teacher! Senior Sister!" Li Hao saluted quickly.

"This is Chaos City Lord. I just revived you. Thank you Chaos City Lord." Yang Hao said.

You must respect the strong, not to mention the strong who resurrected you.

"Thank you Chaos City Lord!" Li Hao couldn't help but be surprised for a moment when he saw this great being with such a huge body, and then immediately saluted and thanked him.

Chaos City Lord nodded, and then said to Yang Hao, "We Virtual Universe Company assign tasks to geniuses, and it is mainly the responsibility of a venerable. His name is 'Venerable Geng Shi', a strong man who joined Virtual Universe Company a long time ago. After his strength was promoted to venerable, he did not make any progress for a long time, so he was assigned to his current position."

"I never thought that this person was actually a Human Race traitor. In this assassination incident, not only was your disciple Li Hao assassinated, but eight of the top ten geniuses of Human Race were assassinated at the same time, and six of them were successfully assassinated." Chaos City Lord paused for a moment. "Even I can't revive him."

Ethnic wars are extremely tragic, but Human Race has not suffered such tragic losses for a long time.

A rebellious lord, in the right position, will suddenly bring huge costs.

Three of the six fallen geniuses have a great chance of becoming Universe Venerable, and the other three are also other geniuses who can become King Level.

Fortunately, Li Hao, the strongest genius, is still alive, otherwise we would have suffered heavy losses.

"This Venerable Geng Shi has left Human Territory and has gone to who knows where, damn it!" Chaos City Lord said slightly angrily.

"Our Human Race was so deeply infiltrated by Alien Race, I have a big responsibility." Chaos City Lord took the big pot on his back.

"However, Undying Venerable is responsible for screening key positions in the counter-espionage work, so Undying Venerable is also responsible for this incident."

"Undying Venerable?" Yang Hao frowned.

He had a very bad impression of Undying Venerable, who took the lead in organizing the slave trade within humanity. Before him, there were very few slave traders in Human Race.

Under his leadership, slave trading companies appeared in all Universe Countrys.

Since the slave trading company can only reach the ninth level of Universe at most, it has almost no impact on the powerful middle- and high-level humans.

Some of his strange explanations include the bullshit theory that slave trading is also a form of selection, and that under enough oppression, super geniuses can be born.

In addition, Undying Venerable is very powerful and capable of saving lives. His status in the ethnic group is barely comparable to that of Universe Master, and it does not touch the interests of Universe Master and other strong people, so the strong people do not interfere too much in this matter.

Logically speaking, if a Universe Overlord engages in slave trading, how much benefit can it bring to him?

But Undying Venerable has a weird personality. I don't know if it's a special habit or because he believed in his own fallacy, so the slave trade across the entire ethnic group started.

"Hmph! If Undying Venerable doesn't do his job well and has the energy to do some unsavory things, I think we should just replace him with someone else." Yang Hao snorted coldly, obviously extremely dissatisfied with Undying Venerable.

If I hadn't been careful, this disciple with extremely good luck would have disappeared, but it would be funny if Universe, the son of top luck, fell.
