In the Virtual Universe, in front of the temple at the highest point of Thunder Island.

With a flash of white light, Lin Mo's figure appeared out of thin air in front of the majestic temple.

Before he could even step into the main hall...

The figure of the Chaos City Lord, radiating boundless pressure, descended before them without warning.

At this moment, Lin Mo and the Chaos City Lord were only a few meters apart, and the two were quietly looking at each other.

For a moment, no one spoke.

Lin Mo clearly saw an undisguised rage in the eyes of the Chaos City Lord.

"Star Sea King, I ask you, what have you been doing inside the Star Tower?"

After a long silence, the Chaos City Lord suppressed his anger and questioned in a deep voice.

Faced with the Chaos City Lord's questioning, Lin Mo remained calm.

He pretended not to understand at all and asked in confusion:

"Lord City Lord, what do you mean by that?"

Seeing that Lin Mo was still pretending to be confused, the Chaos City Lord snorted coldly and waved his hand sharply.

Suddenly, several huge virtual screens appeared in the void ahead.

On the far left screen, a battle recording from the higher-ups of the Giant Axe Arena was playing.

In the recording, Lin Mo used the secret technique of Return to the Ruins as if he were a god.

A single strike instantly annihilated nearly 20,000 Alien Race King Rank.

Meanwhile, the central screen displayed a dense array of discussion topics within Hongmeng City.

The powerful figures of the entire Hongmeng Alliance were in an uproar.

Everyone was frantically speculating about the identity of this suddenly appearing, unparalleled Human Race powerhouse.

On the far right screen were emails from other Human Race Universe Master.

The Lord of Void Gold, the Lord Peng Gong, the Lord Huang Jian, and others were all anxiously asking the Chaos City Lord.

Who exactly is this person who caused such a huge uproar inside the Star Tower?

Was it arranged by the Chaos City Lord?

Looking at these documents, the Chaos City Lord's face darkened, and he said coldly:

Do you know how much trouble you've gotten yourself into this time?

"You not only killed tens of thousands of King-level Immortal from the Alien Race faction with a single blow."

"They also forcibly enslaved countless promising young talents within their clan who were highly regarded by the higher-ups and had the potential to break through to the Universe Venerable realm."

Do you know what serious consequences your actions will have?

At this moment, facing the Chaos City Lord's thunderous rage and questioning...

Lin Mo showed no fear whatsoever, and simply replied with a calm tone.

"Lord City Lord, I am simply doing my best to complete the task you assigned me."

"You personally demanded that I submit a pledge of allegiance, enslaving one hundred Immortal Alien Race of your own race from other tribes."

"I completed the task strictly according to your requirements, and even exceeded them, ensuring both quality and quantity."

Upon hearing this, and hearing Lin Mo's confident and eloquent reply, the Chaos City Lord was so enraged that he lost his composure.

He wished he could punish Lin Mo severely right now and make Lin Mo pay for his actions.

However, after weighing the pros and cons...

His impending outburst of anger was forcefully suppressed.

In truth, all these variables stemmed from Lin Mo's good disciple, Luo Feng.

The Chaos City Lord also learned some information about Luo Feng's activities on the Outer Domain Battlefield by chance.

Before Luo Feng went to the Outer Domain Battlefield, the Chaos City Lord valued him.

But they only considered Luo Feng as a potential Universe Overlord.

As long as Luo Feng doesn't perish or become Soul Enslavement along the way.

It's a foregone conclusion that Human Race will gain a Universe Overlord in the future.

However, ever since the Chaos City Lord learned that Luo Feng, at the World Lord Level, possessed the terrifying strength to directly kill Peak King expert.

His evaluation of Luo Feng has undergone a complete transformation.

World Lord Level killed Peak King.

Such extraordinary talent and combat prowess are extremely rare, even in the entire history of Human Race.

The Chaos City Lord now firmly believes that Luo Feng absolutely possesses the talent to break through and become the Universe Master.

If I severely punish Lin Mo now because of this...

Given Luo Feng's extremely respectful and loyal character,

Once they learn that their teacher has been wronged by the higher-ups of the Human Race, they will inevitably harbor resentment.

This will indirectly lead to a significant decrease in Luo Feng's sense of belonging and goodwill towards the Human Race.

To punish a rebellious Star Sea King.

Instead of offending or even pushing away a Universe Master is very likely to become the pillar of Human Race in the future.

This deal is extremely unprofitable by any measure and is extremely detrimental to the long-term future of the community.

For the sake of his clan's interests, the Chaos City Lord chose to swallow his anger and clean up Lin Mo's mess.

"I'll step in and cover this up for you."

"If the Alien Race demands an explanation, I will shield you from it."

"This time, I'll let you off the hook."

"But I hope there will never be a next time!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the Chaos City Lord seemed unwilling to see Lin Mo for even a second longer.

He snorted coldly and vanished into thin air.

Seeing the Chaos City Lord suffer such a great loss and yet be helpless, Lin Mo felt much better.

The frustration of being forced to submit a pledge of allegiance by the Chaos City Lord in Chaos City has now vanished.

Not long after, Lin Mo Lin Mo received another summons from the Lord of Ice Peak.

Inside the grand hall of the Lord of Ice Peak.

The Lord of Ice Peak looked at Lin Mo and sighed softly.

"Star Sea King, I now know everything about what you did inside the Star Tower."

Although the Lord of Ice Peak's voice was cold and clear, it did not have the same aggressive and oppressive feel as the Chaos City Lord.

He looked at Lin Mo, his tone carrying a hint of apology.

"First of all, I apologize on behalf of my senior brother for forcing you to submit a pledge of allegiance in Chaos City."

Lin Mo was slightly taken aback upon hearing this.

The so-called Universe Master actually took the initiative to apologize to him?

The Lord of Ice Peak continued:

"I have already renegotiated the three conditions that my senior brother originally proposed to you."

"Given the strength you demonstrated and the heavy blow you inflicted on the Alien Race, all three conditions are hereby cancelled."

"As compensation, I personally bestow upon you a Supreme Treasure perfectly suits you."

Upon hearing this, Lin Mo quickly shook his head and refused:

"Lord of Ice Peak, how can this be allowed?"

"You paid a huge price to Reverse Time and Space and revive me, and I haven't given you any benefit for that."

"Now you've not only removed my conditions, but also offered me this priceless Supreme Treasure. It's too precious for me to accept."

Faced with Lin Mo's refusal, the Lord of Ice Peak shook his head without further ado.

"My Supreme Treasure, I can give it to whomever I want; consider this compensation to you."

"After all, what my senior brother did back then wasn't exactly ethical."

Since the Lord of Ice Peak has already put it this way, it would be impolite for Lin Mo to refuse any further.

At this moment, Lin Mo solemnly bowed and accepted the gift from the Lord of Ice Peak.
