However, she had run into Nan Yuan almost immediately after arriving at Mt. Microcosms.

Lu Yin had already proposed to have Lei Qingqing be given a seat as an overseer, but Nan Yuan had objected before even knowing who Lei Qingqing actually was. However, he had since learned exactly who held that name.

Naturally, Nan Yuan had started mocking Big Sis when he saw her step onto Mt. Microcosms.

Nan Yuan believed that everyone he interacted with had to be someone of status. Even if everyone he knew was constantly plotting and scheming against each other, they all maintained a certain sense of public decorum and kept their skeletons safely hidden from view. However, Nan Yuan had misunderstood Big Sis. She could not compare to the people whom Nan Yuan was used to interacting with. Big Sis was part of Leon’s Armada, and she was actually the captain of one of his subordinate crews. In particular, Big Sis was someone who truly idolized the position of the Pirate King. How could anyone who was chasing after the title of Pirate King allow another person to publicly humiliate them?

Thus, Big Sis had retaliated, and she had instantly tried to kill Nan Yuan. In fact, he would have died without question if Mt. Microcosms’ protectors had not acted so quickly.

No one had even imagined that Big Sis’s temper would be so bad. Even on Mt. Microcosms, she had attacked the moment she had been insulted, and this was despite the fact that she was fully aware that she could not be considered a powerhouse at such a place and was far from untouchable.

Even though Nan Yuan did not end up dying, he was badly wounded. Big Sis had knocked all of the man’s teeth out of his head, and he had lost all of his dignity as an overseer. When had he ever met such a lunatic before? Hadn’t he only taunted the woman a bit? It had only been a bit of wordplay and posturing, so why had that woman acted so violently?

The incident left Nan Yuan completely furious, and he immediately launched a frenzied mission to get revenge. He even went so far as to immediately send Mt. Microcosms’ protectors to arrest Big Sis.

However, Big Sis was not an easy opponent. Not only was she supported by Lu Yin, but she also had Eversky Island behind her. Various overseers stepped forward, and they quickly reached a deadlock on the issue.

Nan Yuan was the overseer who represented the Court of Seven Names. How could he silently accept such an insult? He immediately put forth a proposal to the overseers’ council to have Big Sis punished for her actions. After all, Nan Yuan was one of the overseers, and if any one of them was slapped down in such a manner, it would demean the entire council and be a slap in the face to the Hall of Honor itself.

Not even San Liang could deny this logic. It was indisputable that Big Sis had slapped Overseer Nan Yuan in the head, and her attack had even been witnessed by many people.

For this reason, both San Liang and Bu Laoweng called in “sick,” and their condition was much worse than before. It was said that the two were but a single breath away from death.

Nan Yuan was enraged at their behavior as it was clear the two were merely employing crude delaying tactics to put off the meeting. Nan Yuan had no other choice but to order Big Sis to be kept under close supervision. At the same time, he said some brazen things, like that if no word was soon given regarding this matter, he would stoop as low as to his overseer’s privilege to force Big Sis to receive punishment.

Big Sis had publicly struck Overseer Nan Yuan, and this was an issue that was difficult for her to get out of. After all, if there was no accounting for this blatant show of disrespect, the overseers’ council would be demeaned in the public eye.

Zi Jing, Yang Ji, and Si Hong would not help Lu Yin with this matter, as there was too much on the line.

Lu Yin was rather speechless when he received the report. Big Sis\'s fiery temper was unlike anyone else’s, and Nan Yuan had really been unlucky this time. While antagonizing others would not necessarily be a good choice, he had made the grievous mistake of provoking Big Sis. The man was truly lucky to have kept his life.

All of the overseers had tried to call Lu Yin, and Nan Yuan had sent more than ten messages, each one urging Lu Yin to return to Mt. Microcosms to participate in an overseers’ meeting.

Lu Yin quickly called San Liang.

"Alliance Leader Lu, I’m glad to finally hear from you." San Liang heaved a sigh of relief.

Lu Yin said, "How are things going? Is Lei Qingqing okay?"

"She\'s fine. She’s being watched by Mt. Microcosms’ protectors, and while she has been imprisoned, she’s been given excellent treatment and food. But Boss, this Big Sis of yours is too vicious! You haven’t seen how badly she beat Nan Yuan! He’s truly lucky to be alive." San Liang was scared of Lu Yin, but he was not trying to hide the fact that he was also quite upset with Big Sis’s behavior.

Overseers were supposed to be people of high means and dignity, not brutes who dealt out brutal beatings. This woman was clearly unsuited to becoming an overseer.

Lu Yin indifferently responded, "That’s none of your concern. She’s my senior, and you’ll call her Big Sis whenever you meet her in the future."

San Liang was stunned. Big Sis? Was he supposed to call her that even on Mt. Microcosms? He wanted to refuse, but he did not dare to actually speak back to Lu Yin.

Even in the past, San Liang had not had the courage to stand up to Lu Yin, and he had only grown warier of the youth as time passed. The war between the Great Eastern Alliance and the Astral Beast Domain had shocked the entire Fifth Mainland. Lu Yin wielded enough power to challenge even the Astral Beast Domain. Throughout the entire Human Domain, not even monstrous powers like the Cosmic Sect and others in the Neoverse could compare to Lu Yin. His power and influence had climbed too high.

"Understood, Alliance Leader Lu," San Liang replied. "In that case, what are we going to do about Big Sis?"

"I’ve got this covered," Lu Yin said before ending the call. He thought for a bit and then called Nan Yuan.

At this moment, Nan Yuan was in an excellent mood. While he had initially been furious that he had been attacked by Lei Qingqing, he had eventually realized what an excellent opportunity her actions had given him. After this, how would she ever be able to become an overseer? No matter what sort of pull Lu Yin might possess, it would be impossible for him to thrust the woman into the position of overseer. Not only would Nan Yuan not need to fight against the woman’s bid to become an overseer, but he could also use her attack against her. After all, who would ever believe that such a thuggish woman was not a pirate?

As Nan Yuan was thinking of such plans, his gadget beeped. He glanced at it, arched a brow, but then a smug grin spread across his face. “Overseer Lu, it’s been quite a while."

"Overseer Nan Yuan, I heard that you got beaten?" Lu Yin said, sounding a bit surprised.

Nan Yuan sneered, "Did you not hear, Overseer Lu? I was attacked by that Lei Qingqing that you recommended to become the final overseer. That woman’s a brute! She attacked me as soon as I spoke just a few words! I wonder, what do you think of this?"

Lu Yin blinked. "What else could I think? I find it a true pity."

Nan Yuan showed a small smile. "That\'s perfectly accurate. It’s such a pity that your best candidate to become an overseer turned out to be such a person, Overseer Lu."

A smile appeared on Lu Yin\'s face as well. "That\'s not what I meant at all. I meant that it’s a pity that you didn’t die."

Nan Yuan\'s expression instantly changed, and his voice dropped low. "Honestly, I also find it quite a pity that you weren’t devoured by those beasts when they attacked the Outerverse."

"Too bad for you. You\'d better suck up what happened with Lei Qingqing, or else you’ll end up completely out of luck," Lu Yin threatened.

Nan Yuan sneered. "Lu Yin, you’ve become far too arrogant after your fight with the Astral Beast Domain. Do you really think that you can go against my Seven Courts just because you were able to stop the Astral Beast Domain? You received outside support from the Cosmic Sect, the Mavis family, and even the Hall of Honor. Do you actually think that you pulled that off with your own abilities? My Seven Courts couldn’t care less about your Great Eastern Alliance!”

"Then go ahead and try. I better hear that Lei Qingqing is safe and sound when I get to Mt. Microcosms, or else you’ll have to pay the price.” With that, Lu Yin hung up. The smile grew bigger and bigger on his face, as he was absolutely certain that Nan Yuan had to be raging at this moment.

On Mt. Microcosms, Nan Yuan was indeed furious at this moment, and he smashed his table with a hand, anger burning in his eyes. "Lu Yin, you’re too hateful! You had me beat in public, and now you’re demanding that I silently accept it? Do you really believe that you can cover the sky with one hand? I want to see just how you’re going to protect Lei Qingqing!"

He then glanced towards a certain courtyard. It happened to be the place where Bo was currently walking about.

Nan Yuan\'s expression changed once again, and his smile returned. Lu Yin, you’re not the only one manipulating the council!

Given the current situation, San Liang and Bu Laoweng would not be able to keep up the act of being incapacitated for very long, which meant that Lu Yin needed to make his way to Mt. Microcosms as soon as possible.

Not only did he want to deal with the matters regarding the overseers’ council, but he also wanted to check on Arch-Elder Zen’s attitude towards him.

After Lu Yin had passed his stellular tribulation, space had overlapped, and the Perennial World’s desire to kill Lu Yin had increased more than ever. They would soon launch their war on the Fifth Mainland, and that war would be far more dangerous than the one that Lu Yin had waged against the Astral Beast Domain. It was vital that Lu Yin determine Arch-Elder Zen’s attitude.

…

With the Second Nightking leading him, Lu Yin was able to reach Mt. Microcosms at the fastest speed possible.

Both Bu Laoweng and San Liang were miraculously cured as soon as Lu Yin arrived, and the overseers were able to hold a standard meeting.

This was Lu Yin’s second time participating in an overseers’ council in person on Mt. Microcosms. His first time had been when Nan Yuan had tried to propose that Leaf King take the empty overseer post as the Innerverse representative, and this second time was also because of Nan Yuan’s machinations.

There would not be a third time.

One by one, the overseers took their seats. Lu Yin was the last one to step into the room.

Instantly, the atmosphere in the room became a bit more tense.

Zi Jing was the first to speak. "Alliance Leader Lu, congratulations on your victory in the Outerverse war. Not only did you stop the Astral Beast Domain’s invasion, but you also managed to reclaim control of the eastern weaves."

Lu Yin smiled. "Thank you. I also would like to offer my gratitude to your CyNet for all the help during the war."

When the Great Eastern Alliance had stepped out to defend the Outerverse from the Astral Beast Domain’s invasion, countless people on the network had started mocking the alliance and Lu Yin. CyNet had blocked many accounts belonging to the naysayers, and those actions had prevented public opinion from completely destroying Lu Yin and the alliance. After the astral beasts had been routed, praise for Lu Yin and the Great Eastern Alliance was all that could be found anywhere on the network, and this was also due to CyNet’s efforts.

Zi Jing smiled back. "We only did as we should. The Great Eastern Alliance was out there fighting to the death to defend the people of the Outerverse, and while we did not step onto the battlefield, we still had to do our part."

Lu Yin replied, "CyNet helped us tremendously, and such support was far better than the actions of others who tried to hamstring us."

San Liang dutifully turned to glance at Nan Yuan at this time, and his movement caused the other overseers to turn and look at Nan Yuan as well.

The man’s expression twisted; what had he done? He had never tried to make things difficult for the Great Eastern Alliance during the war—even if he had wanted to, he would not have succeeded. He had absolutely no ability to affect the Great Eastern Alliance.

"Alright, that’s enough small talk. Let’s get to why we’re here today.”

Nan Yuan opened his mouth to continue, but suddenly, someone else spoke up. "I propose to dismiss Nan Yuan from his position as an overseer."

These unexpected words left Nan Yuan stunned, and Zi Jing, Yang Ji, Si Hong, and the others were no different. None of them had received any warning of this development.

Nan Yuan instantly realized that he was being thwarted once again. Every time he tried to do anything, he would be blocked! He glared at San Liang. "What are you going on about? Dismiss me? San Liang, have you gone mad?"

Old Man San Shang said, "Overseer San Liang, you must have a reason for this proposal, as an overseer cannot be dismissed from their position without just cause. You interrupted Overseer Nan Yuan, and you even want to have him removed from his post. I will not allow such a thing to proceed without a reasonable explanation. You need to account for your words."

Xin Jiao frowned. Why had Old Man San Shang suddenly spoken up in support of Nan Yuan?

San Liang held his head high as he turned to look at Nan Yuan. "Of course there’s a reason to dismiss Nan Yuan, and it’s even quite simple: Overseer Nan Yuan is suspected of kidnapping Overseer San Shang’s grandson in a bid to control Senior Overseer San Shang and gain control of the overseers’ council."

Everyone was startled at this accusation.

Lu Yin instantly erupted and shouted, "Nan Yuan, how dare you try to control the overseers’ council!"

Nan Yuan\'s mind was in turmoil. How did anyone know of this matter?

Xin Jiao first looked at Nan Yuan and then at Lu Yin. San Liang was under Lu Yin’s control, so everyone immediately understood that Lu Yin was the one who was really instigating this matter. Not to mention, Lu Yin was speaking in such a righteous manner despite personally controlling five of the overseers on the council. It was truly jarring to hear such hypocrisy spoken aloud.

Quickly, Xin Jiao turned to look at Old Man San Shang, and the other overseers all did the same.

San Shang frowned, and he stared at San Liang as though he were both dazed and confused by what had just been said. It looked as though San Shang was curious about how San Liang could have learned of this particular matter.

"San Liang, don\'t try to slander people!" Nan Yuan shouted in a rage. If such accusations were verified, there was no way he could retain his seat as an overseer.

San Liang casually lifted his gadget and brought out a display to share with everyone else present. Everyone focused on the display in the air.

It did not show anything unusual or unknown, but rather Nan Yuan’s home.

Nan Yuan\'s expression instantly changed drastically, and he leaped to his feet while screaming, "San Liang, you dare to spy on me?"

San Liang smiled. "That\'s not it at all, but rather that I’ve been making sure to pay careful attention to you after I learned about Senior San Shang’s grandson."
