Chapter 1705: Rise to Fame
All of a sudden, the name of the Sword Alliance went completely viral on the internet.
Almost all the cultivators in the entire God Territory became aware of this new grade-7 organization.
Even the few people who did not know about Death Sickle’s upgrade to grade-7 organization knew that the Sword Alliance was the new grade-7 organization.
After all, the Sword Alliance’s rise to prominence was quite different to that of Death Sickle’s.
The Sword Alliance rose to power by destroying a grade-6 organization, the Myriad Tribe Palace.
In addition, due to Royal’s endorsement, apart from God Capital, the other grade-7 organizations in the God Territory all extended their congratulations.
With them leading the way, it caused the Sword Alliance to receive far more congratulatory messages from the different organizations than Death Sickle did back then.
Naturally, increasing the Sword Alliance’s popularity was part of Bloody’s plan.
If Lin Huang’s ability was still insufficient, like it had been before, he would have naturally preferred to grow his strength while lying low. He would have avoided attracting too much attention.
However, he now had the ability to stand tall, and he had the backing of Royal as well.
He figured that he could totally grow the Sword Alliance in this great world.
By increasing their popularity, it would in turn hasten the development of the Sword Alliance.
Lin Huang would not have to worry about many issues that would arise when the Sword Alliance was developing.
With Bloody as the advisor, and Sword 1’s team as the supervisors, they would only require some time to adapt at most. He would be able to fast-track the Sword Alliance’s development soon.
…
Although the Combat God Temple and the other grade-7 organizations had extended their congratulations due to Royal’s endorsement, they were actually rather confused.
The few Lords from the Combat God Temple had even specially requested Peerless Overlord to ask Royal about what exactly happened. As a Royal Rank-A member, Peerless Overlord was considered to possess some connections within Royal.
In the end, he only received a one sentence reply—”The Sword Alliance’s Chief is Lin Huang, a Royal Rank-S member.”
Peerless Overlord was stunned after seeing that message.
As a Royal Rank-A member who had been a member for many years, he naturally knew what being a Rank-S member meant. He was clearly aware of how difficult it was to become a Rank-S member.
In reality, he barely passed his Rank-A membership evaluation.
One could even say that, in the entire God Territory in this era, only Buried Heaven and him barely had the right to pass the Rank-A membership evaluation, what more the Rank-S membership evaluation.
Moreover, a Rank-S member would be a core member of Royal.
As a Rank-A member, Peerless Overlord would gain far more advantages by simply getting close to Lin Huang than he had gained through hard work all these years.
“Lin Huang… Why is this name rather familiar?” Peerless Overlord frowned slightly. He only recalled a while later, “He seems to be the guy that those bunch of outsiders from the universe came to capture a while ago…”
Peerless Overlord soon connected the dots after confirming Lin Huang’s identity and his Rank-S membership evaluation. “Don’t tell me this guy has killed those outsiders from the universe?!”
He was terrified just imagining it. He had been in contact with the investigators from the Raiders. He could clearly sense that any one of them could kill him easily.
Peerless Overlord did not hesitate at all, and immediately informed Zhan Guang and the others about Royal’s response and his speculations.
The few Lords from the Combat God Temple fell into a long period of silence after hearing his words.
“Indeed, there was no news about the investigators who came…”
“While it could be a case of having the same name, I think it’s impossible that it’s all a coincidence. It should be the same person.”
“Unfortunately, the Sword Alliance’s Chief has never shown his face. Otherwise, we could compare it with the image from the wanted order.” Zhan Guang could not help but ask, “Overlord, didn’t you find out Lin Huang’s personal information from Royal? Isn’t there a picture at least?”
“Rank-S members are Royal’s core members. Their personal information is confidential. I can’t find anything about him with my level of authorization,” Peerless Overlord said rather helplessly, “However, I also think that it should be the same person.”
“He must possess powerful abilities if he’s wanted by a group of middle-rank lord-level outsiders. Even more so since he’s a Royal Rank-S member and destroyed the Myriad Tribe Palace. The possibility of having two powerhouses with lord-level ability with the same name is abysmally low.”
While Combat God Temple and the other grade-7 organizations were investigating the Sword Alliance and trying to figure out what sort of relationship to have with them, Death Sickle had already finalized all the details of their collaboration with the Sword Alliance. They even signed an agreement and posted the collaboration announcement online.
While the bunch of grade-5 and grade-6 organizations were waiting and observing, the few grade-7 organizations had reacted immediately.
Death Sickle definitely knew something.
They started contacting Death Sickle, wanting to obtain more information from them.
Within two hours of Death Sickle posting the collaboration notice, the Nephilic Judge Tribe also posted a collaboration announcement with the Sword Alliance too.
After all, unlike Death Sickle where the upper echelons were aware of Lin Huang’s capabilities, Kylie and Bloody had to spend some time before finally convincing the upper echelons of the Nephilic Judge Tribe.
Combat God Temple was the third one to publish a collaboration announcement. It was because they had confirmed with Death Sickle that both Lin Huangs were the same person.
His Royal Rank-S identity alone was enough for the Combat God Temple to want to cozy up to him.
Soon after the Combat God Temple published the notice, Divine Clapnet, Precious Treasure Pavilion and Xeno published theirs in rapid succession.
The grade-5 and grade-6 organizations sent negotiation invitations immediately when they saw what was unfolding. All of them wanted to be in the loop as well.
Meanwhile, the smaller organizations and some rogue cultivators had a heated discussion on what exactly Sword Alliance was.
While the internet was still discussing the Sword Alliance enthusiastically, organizations such as Death Sickle and the Combat God Temple quietly removed Lin Huang’s wanted notice that they had initially posted under the threat of the Raiders’ investigators.
The Sword Alliance’s rise to fame also made Lin Huang so busy that he did not have time to enter the virtual realm to cultivate.
He had obtained a vast amount of lord-level God Territories from Royal’s auction earlier, but could not spare any time to refine them.
He got Sword 1’s team to check and amend the few grade-7 organizations’ terms of collaboration one by one before giving them to Bloody. After Bloody revised the terms, he participated in discussions about them with Sword 1’s team.
There were also video conferences of discussions with various organizations such as the Combat God Temple and others…
Naturally, Lin Huang had only participated in the collaboration discussions with the grade-7 organizations. He gave the authority to Bloody and Sword 1 to handle the grade-6 organizations, excluding the Nephilic Judge Tribe.
Apart from new collaborations, Lin Huang got Sword 1’s team to do a selective takeover of the organizations under the Myriad Tribe Palace.
Just like what Bloody said, taking over the Myriad Tribe Palace’s organizations would give the outsiders the impression that the Sword Alliance was generous. On the other hand, this could reduce their potential enemies as well.
After all, it was possible that the organizations that used to rely on the Myriad Tribe Palace in the past would see Sword Alliance, the one that destroyed the Myriad Tribe Palace, as an enemy after losing the protection of the former.
Although the Sword Alliance did not care about that, it would be better to have one more organization under them as opposed to having one more enemy.
Furthermore, some of the organizations under the Myriad Tribe Palace were in great shape.
There were four grade-5 organizations among them. Though they did not rank amongst the top, the annual “protection fee” they paid was significant.
Lin Huang got his Sword Servants to run an evaluation. They basically took over any organization as long as their reputations were not below average.
Outside the God Territory, the human world received the news a few days later. Grade-6 and grade-7 organizations contacted the Sword Alliance’s branch in the Demon Eye Star Zone one after the other in an attempt to initiate a collaboration with them.
Lin Huang only managed to finally spare some time to enter the virtual realm after he was more or less done with the arrangements regarding the Sword Alliance. He began a new round of cultivation…
