The forbidden area behind the Dark Vatican was silent.
Aila’s face was contorted with struggle, but at this moment, Ye Xuan curved his lips. "Of course, if you disband the Dark Vatican, I won't leave you without a place to go."
"I plan to create a force to unify the Dark Vatican. After the Dark Vatican disbands, you can join this force. Besides that..."
Ye Xuan paused and then continued, "I can help you break through to the peak of the Half-step Emperor Realm from your current Half-step Emperor Realm."
Huh!?
Hearing Ye Xuan's words, Aila was not surprised to be moved. Not only Aila, but everyone in the forbidden area was shocked by this statement.
To help Lord Aila take another step forward??
Is it true or false? Lord Aila has already reached a level they could only look up to, and this person actually has a way to help him advance further.
"Deal!"
Aila immediately agreed upon hearing this, her eyes becoming resolute. "The peak of the Half-step Emperor Realm, you said it yourself."
"As long as you have the ability to help me reach the peak of the Half-step Emperor Realm, the Dark Vatican will disband, and I and everyone else will join the force you are establishing."
Aila did not hesitate. Was it a joke?
If this person in front of him truly had such means, what was the harm in him and everyone else becoming his subordinates? Miluo and others heard Aila's words and clearly understood his intentions, and none of them spoke out.
Clearly, they tacitly approved of Aila's plan!
"Oh."
Seeing Aila's determination, Ye Xuan was not surprised at all. He then took out a porcelain bottle with his right hand, which was precisely a basic gene potion.
"Here, drink it."
"This..."
Looking at the porcelain bottle, Aila thought about the vast difference in strength between him and this person, and he really had nothing to plot against the other party. "Alright!"
"Lord Aila!!"
"Think twice!!!"
While Miluo and others were reminding him, Aila had already drunk the basic gene potion from the porcelain bottle. Immediately, Aila felt an unprecedented surge of powerful energy within his body, clearly because the gene potion had unlocked his potential.
*Pop~*
At a certain moment, Aila, who had been in the Half-step Emperor Realm for many years, directly broke through the realm and reached the peak of the Half-step Emperor Realm. A terrifying aura spread, forcing Miluo to retreat several steps, while everyone else was blown away.
He actually... broke through the realm!!!
Everyone in the forbidden area looked on with disbelief. What kind of substance was in that porcelain bottle that was so magical? If they could also obtain one, wouldn't they be able to reach the peak of the Heavenly King Realm immediately, and even the Half-step Emperor Realm would not be impossible.
Thinking of this, the eyes of everyone became fervent.
Damn it, compared to becoming stronger, what was the disbandment of a mere Dark Vatican!
*Thump~*
Immediately, Aila knelt down. "Thank you, my lord, for your gift. Aila will swear eternal loyalty to you, and may gods and men strike me down if I ever go back on my word!!"
"Get up."
Ye Xuan was not surprised by Aila's actions at all, as he deserved it.
"Yes, my lord!"
Only then did Aila stand up, his gratitude in his eyes unhidden. This indeed made everyone, including Miluo, extremely envious. Originally, the gap between them and Lord Aila was already large, and now that Lord Aila had directly reached the peak of the Half-step Emperor Realm, the gap between them had become even wider.
Ye Xuan saw the fervent expressions of Miluo and the others. "From now on, you will join the force I am establishing. As long as you contribute to the force, everyone can obtain this gene potion."
"Gene potion?"
Miluo heard this and frowned slightly. "My lord, what Lord Aila just drank from the porcelain bottle was a gene potion."
"That's right."
"This is far beyond the technology of Blue Star. It optimizes human genes to break through to higher realms."
Ye Xuan did not conceal anything and explained slowly. After all, since these people were joining his force, they would come into contact with these things sooner or later.
Changing genes? Improving realms??
*Gulp~*
Hearing Ye Xuan's words, even Aila swallowed. It was simply unbelievable. If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they would never have believed it.
Do you know!
Even the weakest among them were Heavenly King Realm powerhouses. In their established cognition, genes were inherited things and could not be forcefully interfered with by external forces, let alone optimize and improve human physique and realm.
This kind of technology was at least a hundred, a thousand, or even more years ahead of their Blue Star!
"Cough cough..."
"My lord, I wonder, what is the force you are creating?"
Aila coughed and asked the question that he and everyone in the forbidden area cared about most.
Hearing Aila's question, Miluo and others also turned their gaze to Ye Xuan, clearly caring about this question as well, as they would be members of this force in the future.
"Xuan Alliance."
Ye Xuan uttered the name of the force he had long thought of. "Xuan Alliance will be the largest force on Blue Star from now on."
"Under the Xuan Alliance, I will serve as the Alliance Leader. Below the Alliance Leader, there will be Deputy Alliance Leaders, Speakers, Councilors, Commanders, and numerous elite members."
He paused and looked at Aila. "Effective immediately, Aila will serve as Speaker. Heavenly King Realm powerhouses can serve as Councilors, and others will be arranged accordingly."
Aila and the others, "!!!"
Aila serving as Speaker meant that this Speaker position was not unique.
"Aila."
"Your subordinate is here!"
After completely submitting, Aila dared not be careless in the slightest and immediately bowed and spoke.
"Disband the Dark Vatican, and also, everyone go to the ten thousand mountains where the Underworld Palace of the Best Kingdom is located!"
"That will be the future headquarters of the Xuan Alliance!!"
Best Kingdom? Underworld Palace? Ten Thousand Mountains??
Miluo and others frowned, and then Miluo's pupils contracted as if realizing something. "My lord, could it be... you are the殿主 of the Underworld Palace!?"
It wasn't just him; everyone in the forbidden area had heard of the Underworld Palace. After all, its power was so mysterious that they couldn't figure it out.
"You are quite clever."
Ye Xuan was slightly taken aback upon hearing this and then said, "That's right, I am the殿主 of the Underworld Palace, and the King of the Best Kingdom is also me."
As expected!!!
Whether it was the Underworld Palace or the Best Kingdom, the abilities they possessed far exceeded their cognition.
No wonder, back then, when the United States had an aircraft carrier sunk by the Best Kingdom in international waters, it was all orchestrated by this lord from behind the scenes.
"Aila, Miluo, stay. The others can leave."
Numerous former Divine Lords, "Uh..."
"Cough, cough, yes, my lord!!"
Although they were somewhat confused, they dared not disobey the words of this lord with heaven-defying methods.
In an instant.
Only Aila and Miluo remained in the field.
Then, Ye Xuan took out another porcelain bottle and looked at Miluo. "After the disbandment, the subordinates of the Dark Vatican will be led by you two from now on. This is a reward for you in advance."
"Do you understand my meaning?"
Seeing a porcelain bottle identical to the previous one, Miluo swallowed. With a thud, he knelt on one knee. "Miluo will definitely manage everyone well and will not fail the Alliance Leader's expectations!!"
"Very good."
"Drink it now. I believe it should not be a problem to reach the Half-step Emperor Realm after drinking it."
Ye Xuan's voice reached Miluo's ears, causing her delicate body to tremble. The Half-step Emperor Realm, at this moment, her respect and loyalty to Ye Xuan reached their peak.
Half an hour later.
A powerful aura swept through the forbidden area. Miluo had indeed reached the Half-step Emperor Realm, which made Miluo so excited that she couldn't recover for a long time.
Looking at the two people in the field, Ye Xuan's lips curved into an arc, and his gaze looked towards the direction of the Temple of Light. "Let's go, accompany me to the Temple of Light."
