"What are you doing?"
The Nether Toad uttered a rough voice, weak and weary.
But the oppressive aura emanating from the Nascent Soul stage demon felt incredibly real.
His gaze swept down at Yuanhao, his voice utterly indifferent.
This left Yuanhao stunned on the spot.
He was somewhat dazed.
Or perhaps he was a little confused about the situation.
An overwhelming fear rose from behind him, engulfing his spine.
My hair stood on end; I felt like I was about to defecate.
Lu Li ignored Yuanhao's frightened expression.
He calmed himself, focused his Law Power, and secretly transmitted his voice to Nether Toad.
"Let's find an excuse to calm things down."
"Stabilize Azure Pool, go to my cave abode... and wait for me."
The sound reached the ears of the Nether Toad.
The Nether Toad moved slightly, its gaze fixed on Lu Li.
It revealed a subtle sense of respect and sincerity.
Then, facing his disciples, his voice boomed and spread.
"I was seriously injured just now because of the bandits."
Fortunately...
The Nether Toad's eyes flickered slightly as it looked at Lu Li.
As if suddenly struck by an idea, she winked mischievously.
"Fortunately, Lu Li saved me; to express my gratitude..."
"On this auspicious day, I Lu Li as the leader of our Azure Pool."
" Yuanhao has failed in his duties and has been demoted to elder."
"I hope that all disciples will join me in assisting the sect leader and strengthening our Azure Pool."
As soon as he finished speaking, Nether Toad glared at Yuanhao again, still worried.
After giving him a fright, she secretly glanced at Lu Li.
The voice was transmitted secretly.
"Master, is this alright?"
"If you can, I'll go downstairs now. I feel sore all over..."
Upon hearing Nether Toad's voice, Lu Li raised an eyebrow.
He hadn't expected that Nether Toad would directly grant him the position of Azure Pool Sect Leader.
But that's just as well, because I'll have to take this step sooner or later anyway.
Having successfully secured the top spot, further development requires a position with sufficient influence.
Unexpectedly, in just a few years, he has gone from being a menial servant at Azure Pool to this point.
The other disciples were all shocked when they saw this scene.
The leader of Azure Pool... has changed again!
In just one year, three Golden Core cultivators have already taken this position.
Upon hearing these words, Yuanhao's frightened expression subsided slightly.
I felt a little dazed, but also relieved.
I'm so glad I survived.
In a daze... just what is Lu Li's background? He has the ability to kill Nascent Soul and has even gained the favor of the Nether Toad.
What exactly happened behind the scenes?
He couldn't understand it, he couldn't figure it out.
But one could sense that Azure Pool seemed... to change very quickly.
In the end, Nether Toad received Lu Li's approval and went down to recuperate from her injuries for the time being.
We will wait for his return in his cave abode.
Xu Xiong and Changming Changye swarmed towards Lu Li.
The three looked on with surprise and admiration.
For some reason, Azure Pool underwent such a dramatic change in just one day.
His master had become Golden Core True Lord and even held the position of sect leader.
The two of them immediately became the sect leader's chief disciples.
Xu Xiong was overjoyed, for he was no longer an ordinary Foundation Establishment, but a junior disciple of the Sect Leader!
This kind of status naturally pleased the three of them.
Yuanhao stood there awkwardly, unsure of what to say.
Lu Li was the first to speak, assigning tasks to everyone.
"Junior Brother Xu, take Changming and Changye to appease the disciples in the sect."
"The number of remaining disciples, the cultivation levels of those at the Qi Refinement Foundation Establishment, are all recorded in the register."
"If anyone is seriously injured, give them some basic treatment."
" Yuanhao..."
"Your subordinate is here! Commander, please give your orders!"
True Lord Yuanhao was indeed perceptive; upon hearing Lu Li call him, he immediately clasped his hands in greeting and stood beside him.
They looked ready to be ordered around.
Lu Li was slightly taken aback.
Somewhat awkwardly, he said, "Elder Yuanhao, we still need you to take care of the sect's miscellaneous affairs."
"Let's help Junior Brother Xu and my two disciples, and for now, keep Azure Pool calm."
"As for other matters... I will make a formal announcement tomorrow."
The lottery was successfully registered, and the country is now meticulously optimizing its subsequent strategic objectives.
Lu Li can take care of the miscellaneous matters first.
Once it's all over, he will receive a detailed and precise development plan.
With the country as our backing, we have plenty of confidence.
Many trivial matters can be arranged smoothly with just a few words.
Fortunately, everything is going smoothly so far, and Lu Li can't help but look forward to the country's new strategic goals.
Of course, before that, he needed to hurry back to his cave abode.
Go see Nether Toad.
He now has a lot of questions he wants answered from the Nether Toad toad.
These questions not only concern his curiosity, but also have significant implications for the Great Xia and its future strategic goals.
This includes the Prefecture-Breaking War!
What exactly was the Prefecture-Breaking War Prefecture-Breaking War? And what impact did it have on him?
Now, Azure Pool can be considered, in a strict sense, his bridgehead and base for Great Xia.
We must find out what impact this Prefecture-Breaking War has had on Azure Pool.
While we're at it, let's uncover all the secrets of the entire Western Continent.
They also need to get to the bottom of the human forces on the other side of the Demon Manor.
"Whoosh!"
With a surge of Law Power, Lu Li returned to his cave abode.
The cave abode, now reduced to ruins, was barely preserved in its original state thanks to the array plate.
Before Lu Li even got close, he saw a bald, burly man sitting upright outside the cave abode entrance.
As Lu Li approached, the bald, burly man jumped to his feet.
He said excitedly, "Master!"
"Yes, come in and talk."
Lu Li waved his hand, knowing that this bald, burly man was probably the human form of the Nether Toad.
Legend has it that Golden Core Demon Beast, after refining its transverse bone, can speak human language.
Nascent Soul Demon Beast can transform into human form, indistinguishable from True Person, which is truly miraculous.
This Nether Toad, how come its human form looks so comical...?
He looked like a middle-aged, bald, nouveau riche man with a huge belly.
"Whoosh!"
He raised his hand to open the array plate.
Lu Li and Nether Toad walked in.
The array was heavily protected, and Lu Li and Nether Toad sat facing each other.
Looking at the bald, middle-aged, muscular man in front of him, Lu Li felt somewhat dazed.
The Nascent Soul demon from back then now sat before him like a servant.
Such a bizarre and wondrous event left him feeling as if he had never been in another world.
"Master? Master?"
Hearing the voice of the Nether Toad, Lu Li back to his senses and carefully looked the Nether Toad toad up and down.
As far as the eye could see, the bald, middle-aged man he was in was overweight, with a dark green brocade robe tightly binding his belly.
Round face with oily skin, small eyes and a wide nose.
His mustache is parted horizontally to the left and right, and his eyes are as small as soybeans. He's as ugly as can be, and as ridiculous as can be.
"Cough cough cough, all done."
" Nether Toad, there are quite a few miscellaneous matters to attend to in the sect today."
"As you know, the Prefecture-Breaking War is imminent. Quickly reiterate the key points, including those concerning the various forces in the Western Continent."
I need to analyze the current situation carefully.
As soon as he finished speaking, Nether Toad paused slightly, seemingly also stirred up by his words.
After organizing his thoughts, he began to speak carefully.
"Master, this Prefecture-Breaking War has yielded many benefits!"
