Chapter 2065: Their Identities

Zishan Jun said: "Yes, the territorial conflict is a battle of Controller level, generally related to important resources at the border. However, what we are currently engaged in is not a resource war, but a hatred war. Because the Lord of the Universe captured the Supreme Intelligence, who serves as the central main brain of the myriad worlds, the Mechanical Clan is very displeased, constantly provoking at the border, with frequent battles. The Lord of the Universe stands high above, unwilling to bully the weak, and has not intervened. The Primordial Ancestors also do not wish to get involved, so it has been delayed, already for millions of years. This can also be considered a training opportunity for us Controllers; over millions of years, border wars have produced many strong individuals."

Xiao Feng opened his mouth, feeling a bit dumbstruck.

The origin of the territorial war, surprisingly, is because the Supreme Intelligence was captured to be a server?

"No, no."

At this moment, Chen Xiao Ba suddenly spoke up, indicating he had an opinion.

Everyone looked over.

Only hearing the youth say: "The friction with the Mechanical Clan actually originated from a small agreement between the Supreme Intelligence and the Lord of the Universe. Initially, the Lord of the Universe's realm had not yet reached its peak, and the Supreme Intelligence tried to persuade him to pour the Mechanical Civilization into the territory of the Water Civilization, so that the Supreme Intelligence's perception could spread. You also know that the Supreme Intelligence is the Lord of Mechanical Rules; all electrically powered machinery in the universe are his eyes and avatars, distributed wherever they are, he can descend there."

"This act is tantamount to invading the Water Civilization; initially, the Lord of the Universe agreed without understanding the situation. Later, after the war between the Human Race and the Water Clan ended, he had already reached the Primordial Ancestor realm, naturally understood the reasoning, and refused to fulfill this promise. The Supreme Intelligence, ashamed and angry,"

"took back the advance payment that had been previously given."

"Originally this matter should have ended, but later the Supreme Intelligence was still unwilling, sending the Mechanical Clan's transcendent fleet to repeatedly harass our borders. Afterwards, the Universal Calamity descended, further nearly interrupting the Lord of the Universe's crucial breakthrough. Then, the Lord of the Universe disappeared for millions of years; the Mechanical Clan thought the Human Race had lost a supreme powerhouse, and intensified their border harassment, sparking the war."

"Until the Lord of the Universe returned, the loss is as you said. He captured the Supreme Intelligence as the central main brain; the Mechanical Clan was furious, and the other three Primordial Ancestors demanded an explanation to no avail, thus fully triggering the war."

Having said this, all the listeners showed surprised expressions.

It turns out the whole story of the war is like this!

Xiao Feng was also somewhat surprised; he had previously heard these things directly from the Supreme Intelligence in the game.

But what he heard then was only the Supreme Intelligence's one-sided account, with the intent to smear the Lord of the Universe.

Chen Xiao Ba's account, however, leans toward the Lord of the Universe being the just side.

Both sides carry some personal bias; if we take a neutral view, each side likely has some faults.

But that originally wasn't a big deal; eventually it became what it is now, fundamentally because the Mechanical Clan loves to stir up trouble.

"Since they are the ones provoking, why doesn't the Lord of the Universe just settle them directly?" Zishan Jun asked, puzzled.

The millions-of-years-long war is also a considerable burden for the Human Race; over these years, there have also been many instances of Controllers falling.

Chen Xiao Ba explained: "That's because the Lord of the Universe has transcended worldly affairs, no longer intervening in the clans' struggles,

nor does he favor the Human Race side. Now he faces a higher-level war, countless times more terrifying than the Mechanical Clan, so he has no mind to bother with these trivial matters."

"I see."

Everyone suddenly understood.

Changhe Zhuzhu raised his thumb, praising: "Qingfeng Shan Zhu truly deserves to be the Lord of the Universe's former good partner; he knows a lot!"

Xiao Feng heard this and was stunned.

Chen Xiao Ba's that partner, actually is the Lord of the Universe!

This surprise is no small matter.

Many things that were previously incomprehensible suddenly became clear.

No wonder all the Controllers respect him so much; he's a big shot in front of the Lord of the Universe!

Earlier I heard people say that Earth is the Lord of the Universe's homeland; it turns out it's not nonsense, it's fact!

The Lord of the Universe is the survivor of Earth's First Era's destruction; later he became immensely powerful, giving back to his homeland, allowing Earth to have the prosperity of its Second Era.

And He Yunshan's identity needs no further guessing!

He is the Lord of the Universe's personal disciple!

Xiao Feng looked at these two Earth Controllers, his feelings became extremely complicated for a moment.

"Lord of the Myriad Worlds, what's wrong? Your expression is off." He Yunshan smiled at him, seeing through Xiao Feng's current mental activity.

Xiao Feng bitterly smiled: "You really... have such a great background, yet you kept it hidden all along; I thought you were just ordinary planet Controllers, I never expected..."

Chen Xiao Ba chuckled: "You also never asked."

He Yunshan laughed loudly: "Now that you know, aren't you eager to cling to our thighs?"

Xiao Feng pursed his lips and muttered: "I already know thighs thicker than yours..."

Chen Xiao Ba wore a gentle smile and said

": Are you talking about that grandma who controls the Time Laws? She should be the one who helped you transcend mortality."

Obviously, the Earth people and Chen Jie et al. are acquainted, and their relationship is very good.

Xiao Feng nodded and casually asked: "Aren't you the Lord of the Universe's partner? By rights, you should be a generation older than her; how can you also call her grandma?"

Chen Xiao Ba helplessly said: "Her personality doesn't have any sense of seniority in her eyes."

"That's also true... uh, speaking of which, if we gossip about her behind her back, will we get beaten later?" Xiao Feng suddenly thought of something.

However, it's not fear, but... a bit of anticipation.

If saying a few bad words about Chen Jie would let him see her, he would definitely say a few more!

Chen Xiao Ba shook his head: "No, I have a privilege that lets me discuss any Dao Ancestor with others without being watched."

Everyone: ……

This privilege is indeed quite special.

But it also shows that the Lord of the Universe hasn't forgotten his old good partner, granting him the realm of a Planet-level Controller, immortal life force, and almost boundless freedom.

Such treatment really makes people envious!

"So, when will I participate in the territorial war?" Xiao Feng asked.

"Still early; even the Lord of Moonlight hasn't gone, let alone you." Zishan Jun shook his head.

Changhe Zhuzhu said: "Newly promoted Controllers will not be immediately dispatched to the territorial border, especially you, who haven't even registered a civilized planet; we will give you ample time to develop your own planet and nurture inheritors. When you advance to the Controller realm reaching 10,000 common years, the Cosmic Nation will dispatch you to the territorial border. If at that time you are still planet-"

level, generally you would only perform some rear defense tasks, with low danger. So Lord of the Myriad Worlds, you can rest assured, nothing will happen."

"Ten thousand years that long?" Xiao Feng couldn't help but be speechless.

He is only in his twenties; even counting dream enlightenment, time acceleration, etc., he is still not over 300 years old.

Ten thousand years later... who knows what it will become!

He might have already become a Dao Ancestor!

Moonlight Lord said: "Yes, so I haven't even gotten a turn to go to the frontier yet. Lord of Myriad Heavens, if you want to go earlier, you can voluntarily request orders in the future. As we are the controllers of the nearby Planet, let's go together to the Zhan Chang, so we can look out for each other."

Xiao Feng nodded and said: "Alright, then when the time comes, Moonlight Lord calls for me, and seven thousand years later we'll go together to the frontier to gain extensive experience!"
