Head-on confrontation
at this time.
Old Ancestor Heavenly Star raised his eyes and looked around at the Heavenly Star Alliance Senior Leadership.
After everyone who was supposed to be there had arrived.
Finally, he spoke, "Gentlemen, after seeing Lu Jiu, I believe you all understand what happened today."
"Now I'll make a formal announcement."
"Our first piece of good news today is that Lu Jiu has successfully advanced to the Nascent Soul! Our Heavenly Star Alliance has gained another Nascent Soul Cultivator!!"
"This Old Ancestor tentatively plans to hold the Nascent Soul Ceremony for Lu Jiu at the Star Tower Square one month from now."
Upon hearing this, all the Cultivator present, including Xun Huo, bowed to Su Bai.
Su Bai returned the greetings with clasped hands.
The Old Ancestor Heavenly Star continued, "Lu Jiu has made many contributions to our Heavenly Star Alliance."
"Previously, our collaboration with the Sea Tribe to develop the Sea Spirit Pill and the sourcing of a large number of spirit medicine for the Alliance were indelible contributions."
"Lu Jiu himself came from a background of Overseas Rogue Cultivator. Not only was his Talent in Combat outstanding, but his Alchemy Talent was even greater than his master's."
"I, your Old Ancestor, have listed him as the number one prodigy of the new generation in the Demon Star Sea. I believe no one will object."
"Therefore, there is another piece of news today."
"Then Old Ancestor will honor my previous agreement with Lu Jiu and formally appoint him as the Vice Alliance Leader of the Heavenly Star Alliance."
The second piece of news announced by the Old Ancestor Heavenly Star did not surprise the people present.
After all, the news that the Old Ancestor Heavenly Star promised Su Bai to become the Vice Alliance Leader in exchange for advancing to the Nascent Soul had been circulating in Heavenly Star City for who knows how long.
Since its establishment, the Heavenly Star Alliance has never appointed Vice Alliance Leader.
This move is tantamount to the Old Ancestor Heavenly Star officially announcing that Lu Jiu has been designated as his successor.
Despite having been prepared, Xun Huo's expression still turned somewhat grim when the news actually came from the mouth of the Old Ancestor Heavenly Star.
He reluctantly followed the others in bowing to Su Bai, saying that he had met the Vice Alliance Leader.
Previously, the Alliance Leader the Heavenly Star Alliance was nominally the most powerful figure in the Heavenly Star Alliance.
Next is the Heavenly Ancestor Tian Xing, who is in charge of the Heavenly Punishment Heavenly Punishment Platform and has the most skilled Golden Core and Foundation Establishment Cultivator under his command.
Then there is the Heavenly Law Ancestor controls the Grotto-Heaven -heaven.
Then come the Nascent Soul Cultivator from the Top Grade Lineage and the Family Head of first-tier Lineage.
Now that the Ancestor Tian Xing has fallen, the rankings have naturally changed again.
The one with the highest status is undoubtedly the Old Ancestor Heavenly Star.
The second-ranked person became the Vice Alliance Leader Lu Jiu.
The third-ranked one is the Heavenly Law Ancestor, who is temporarily in charge of the Heavenly Punishment Platform.
The following remain unchanged.
There was another interesting side story at the Heavenly Punishment Platform. Several major Lineage' Nascent Soul tried to take over the Heavenly Punishment Platform, but the Old Ancestor Heavenly Star rejected it outright, and the Heavenly Law Ancestor took over instead.
The Heavenly Punishment Platform wields immense power and is an internal violent department established by the Heavenly Star Alliance. If it falls into the hands of Nascent Soul Lineage, it will likely become a tool for them to seize resources.
Old Ancestor Heavenly Star then spoke up, "Vice Alliance Leader Lu Jiu will be fully responsible for cooperation with the Sea Tribe, as well as matters concerning the Heavenly Star Alliance's Pill and spirit medicine."
"I will also step down as the Palace Master of the Starlight Academy and hand over the position to Lu Jiu."
"Furthermore, to repay the Heavenly Star Alliance for its cultivation, Vice Alliance Leader Lu Jiu previously discussed with me the possibility of forming a second allied army to participate in the battle against the Green Ying Spirit Plain."
The last words of the Old Ancestor Heavenly Star caused quite a stir.
The powers bestowed upon Su Bai by the Old Ancestor Heavenly Star.
This was the result of a private discussion between Su Bai and Old Ancestor Heavenly Star; it's just being made public now.
He was in charge of all cooperation matters with the Sea Tribe, not to mention the potential profits he might make.
The Heavenly Star Alliance also entrusted Su Bai with full authority over matters concerning Pill spirit medicine, which meant he had considerable power.
Su Bai can get involved in anything related to Spirit Pills and spirit medicine.
The Star Luo Pill Pavilion has now been completely freed from the Xiao Family's control.
Then there's the position of Palace Master of the Starlight Academy, which Su Bai considers to be of extraordinary significance.
However, in the eyes of a group of Nascent Soul from different Lineage who lacked long-term vision, the significance of inheritance outweighed the practical significance. After all, in their view, when the Old Ancestor Heavenly Star himself served as the Palace Master, he did not cultivate many geniuses.
Su Bai knew that this was simply because the seed planted by the Old Ancestor Heavenly Star had not yet sprouted.
Once the large number of Foundation Establishment Cultivator from the Starlight Academy have grown up, the Lineage Cultivator will become complete vassals of the Heavenly Star Alliance.
Finally, the last item is to form a second allied army to participate in the battle against the Green Ying Spirit Plain...
The Xun Family Ancestor, Xun Huo, stepped forward and said, "Alliance Leader, I believe that the war is progressing smoothly, and the Vice Alliance Leader need not expend further resources to form a Second Alliance Army."
At the suggestion of the Xun Family Ancestor, the Old Ancestor Xiao, the Zhang Family Ancestor, and seven or eight other Lineage Family Head who stood on the same side as Xun Huo also stepped forward to express their agreement.
"Oh?"
"Vice Alliance Leader, the Xun Family Ancestor has objections. What do you say?" Old Ancestor Heavenly Star looked at Su Bai.
Su Bai first bowed to the Old Ancestor Heavenly Star, "Alliance Leader, this humble Daoist has a different opinion."
He then stepped forward, past the Old Ancestor Heavenly Star, and stood at the front, looking directly at the group of Lineage Cultivator.
"Is the war going well?"
"The war has lasted for about a year."
" Of the Great Demon kings of the Green Ying Spirit Plain, has Old Ancestor Xun eliminated even one?"
"As far as I know, in recent months, the Great Demon kings have joined forces, and the allied army's advance has been greatly slowed down. In some areas, there are even signs of being pushed back."
"If this stalemate continues, and it attracts the help of Demon Cultivator from Demon Star City or other Spirit Plain, then it will likely be our Heavenly Star Alliance that suffers defeat."
Although Su Bai did not personally go to the front line to Survey.
However, through the Immortal Seed, he sent several Subordinates to personally gather intelligence.
Immortal Palace Cultivator are skilled in reconnaissance and ambush, so obtaining intelligence is not a simple matter.
Therefore, Su Bai was able to quickly learn about the general situation of the battle at the front.
Spirit Two Su Duanqiu even learned inside information that Xun Huo had personally fought against the Black Ape Demon King, the strongest in the Green Ying Spirit Plain, and the result was a draw.
They are currently seeking assistance from Nascent Soul in order to assassinate this Black Ape Demon King.
"Old Ancestor Xun, aren't you right? That Black Ape Demon King isn't easy to deal with, is he?" Su Bai's gaze locked onto Xun Huo. Since he had already decided to step forward, there was no need to hold back; he would just have to suppress him ruthlessly.
Xun Huo was also surprised that Su Bai, who had only just taken office, was already so forceful.
Moreover, according to his intelligence, Su Bai went directly to the Star Tower as soon as he returned to Heavenly Star City.
How could he be so clear about the details of the battle on the Green Ying Spirit Plain?
Could it be that after advancing to the Nascent Soul, he had already secretly gone to the Green Ying Spirit Plain to observe?
Did they come back specifically for me?
This boy is truly cunning!
He took a deep breath, suppressing his irritation, and cupped his hands in greeting. Su Bai was now the Vice Alliance Leader, and although he was younger than him, he still had to show the proper etiquette.
"Vice Alliance Leader, you are mistaken. Since this is a war, there are no simple reasons, especially since our opponent is the Demon Race."
"I acknowledge that the Vice Alliance Leader's performance in the previous fierce battle in the South Sea was astonishing, and I admire it. However, I doubt that the Vice Alliance Leader has ever experienced such a large-scale battle as the conquest of the Spirit Plain?"
"A war of this magnitude involves a wide range of people and is not as simple as you, Vice Alliance Leader, imagine."
Xun Huo practically pointed at Su Bai's face and said, "You're too young, there's a lot you don't understand, get out of here!"
Xun Huo continued, "Large-scale battles are not that simple; let's talk about Spirit Pills."
"We must bear the cost of the Spirit Pills the coalition forces consume daily."
"For this battle, our Four Great Clans, along with more than a dozen other old cultivation Lineage, contributed tens of millions of spirit medicine."
"Spirit medicine are scarce in Heavenly Star City. Where will you, Vice Alliance Leader, find another batch of such Spirit Pills?"
Su Bai laughed, "Old Ancestor Xun, have you forgotten that I, the Vice Alliance Leader, am Alchemist by training, and also the Vice Pavilion Master of the Star Luo Pill Pavilion?"
Just then, True Man He was also present. Su Bai looked at True Man He and said, "Master, please tell me, can my Star Luo Pill Pavilion raise a batch of Allied Forces Spirit Pills Disciple me?"
True Man He stepped forward, cupped his hands in greeting, and said with a smile, "Vice Alliance Leader, you have already formed your Nascent Soul and become the Vice Alliance Leader. In public, you may simply address me as True Man He. As for these Spirit Pills, the Star Luo Pill Pavilion is naturally qualified!"
"Furthermore, I hereby declare that from this day forward, Vice Alliance Leader, you are the Pavilion Master of the Star Luo Pill Pavilion. All one hundred Alchemist of the Star Luo Pill Pavilion shall obey Vice Alliance Leader orders!"
