I Might Be A Fake Cultivator - Chapter 1597
Chapter 1597: The Alliance Leader Who Wanted a Break
The names of An Lin and the extermination team became renowned throughout the entire continent.
However, as the team leader of the extermination team, An Lin was currently recuperating at the Four Nine Immortal Sect, doing nothing in particular.
He had been resting at the sect for the past few days.
After all, he would be more prepared for the intense battles to come only if he was in good condition himself.
He had overexerted his body over and over again, making it extremely vulnerable and feeble, to the extent that he had to rely on Ye Ling’s help just to walk around.
Xu Xiaolan’s condition was also extremely bad. She had unleashed her buff mystic techniques over and over again with no regard for the consequences and had even harmed her own dao foundation as a result. If it weren’t for the fact that Raphaella’s reciprocation following her death had healed her dao foundation as well, there was a good chance that her cultivation base would not be able to progress any further.
Thus, the severely disabled couple lay side by side on lounge chairs under the warm light of the sun, looking up at the sky and clouds while feeling the gentle breeze caressing their faces.
Ye Ling stood beside them in her tight-fitting black daoist robe. She was feeding them fruits.
Ye Ling fed a spirit grape to An Lin as she spoke with a dainty smile, “Master, the Nine States Media Outlet named you as their influential figure of the year.”
An Lin was quite happy to hear this, and he turned toward Xu Xiaolan with a smile. “Xu Xiaolan, am I bad*ss or what?”
“You are, you really are…” Xu Xiaolan placated him lazily.
Ye Ling fed Xu Xiaolan a grape as well before adding with an amused smile, “Master, Master’s wife had already been named as the most influential figure on the continent fifteen times during the past one hundred years…”
An Lin: “…”
Xu Xiaolan patted An Lin’s head with a dainty smile. “You’ve already done very well… You’re only a little inferior to me. Keep it up…”
An Lin almost threw up a mouthful of blood. “A little? I’m miles behind!”
Ye Ling was very amused. She felt like it was really funny watching her master being schooled by Xiaolan.
The warm sunlight shone down upon her, and she looked up into the sky as a vibrant smile appeared on her face.
“The weather sure is great today. I hope the weather is always as good as this.”
In the western part of the Tai Chu Continent.
There was a boundless ocean with no end in sight.
The seawater within a radius of over a hundred meters was rising into the sky like a reverse waterfall.
There was a small continent being supported in the sky by the fountain of water. Upon this continent were immortal mountains, spirit rivers, all types of exotic flora, and countless intricate, lavish palaces. There were even streaks of iridescent light surging through the air like strands of silk, making the continent appear to be an immortal paradise.
This was the core base of the West Sea Alliance, the Immortal Land Above Water.
An exquisitely beautiful mermaid with skin as fair as jade sprawled over a large, colorful bubble that was floating in the sky. She was looking at the newspaper in her hand, and her blue fish tail was tapping rhythmically against the bubble with excitement. “Big Boss An Lin is the best! He’s so bad*ss!”
The mermaid’s face was filled with pride and elation.
She was An Lin’s underling, Lan Xiaoni.
During the span of a hundred years, the crybaby Underling Lan had undertaken the role of Alliance Leader of the West Sea Alliance, ruling over the entire West Sea, which consisted of two ancient tribes and ten great sea monster tribes as well as several hundred other powers, which amounted to an army of over a billion.
After being tested for so long, she already possessed the holy, regal aura of the goddess of the West Sea. Not only were her features flawlessly beautiful, but they also carried an air of majesty and indisputable authority.
In everyone else’s eyes, she was the West Sea Alliance Leader. However, when Lan Xiaoni saw the newspaper article about An Lin, she reverted back to the cheeky and vulnerable little girl she once was. A sense of attachment and reliance on a backer that she could fall back on welled up in her heart.
Lan Xiaoni really wanted to drop the weight off her shoulders and take a break while Big Boss An Lin carried her.
However, she quickly shook her head to rid herself of this train of thought.
“No, now’s not the time for breaks.”
Lan Xiaoni looked at the portrait in the newspaper, and her sapphire eyes glowed with determination. “I’ve waited for a hundred years for Big Boss An Lin’s return, and I should keep persevering! I can’t let Big Boss An Lin stress over the Heavenly Human Tribe again. I’m going to defend the western front with everything I have in order to share the burden on Big Boss An Lin’s shoulders…”
The mermaid sprung up from her colorful bubble.
She rubbed her hands all over her soft cheeks before adopting a stern expression befitting of an Alliance Leader. She then called upon all powerful beings to the Immortal Land Above Water for a conference.
Within a huge light blue palace.
Lan Xiaoni sat on the throne with a serious expression on her face, and her luscious black hair was tied up in a professional bun. A divine seal flashed on her forehead, releasing a paramount energy fluctuation that commanded respect and reverence from all of the West Sea mighty figures.
There were six Dao Integration Stage super mighty figures and a hundred Return to Void Stage mighty figures gathered, all of whom were standing respectfully before her.
The Heavenly Human Tribe United Army on the western front had staged a retreat, and they were finally given a chance to catch their breath.
The West Sea Alliance was the only power that managed to hold off an entire Heavenly Human Tribe United Army on their own. In reality, if it weren’t for the fact that Lan Xiaoni had attained the power of water and could manipulate the ocean as a result, their defense would have crumbled a long time ago.
“Not only has the Super Heavenly Lightning God returned, but he has also destroyed the Heavenly Human Tribe United Army on the southern front as well as the Southern Heavenly Gate. Would any of you still like to express skepticism toward my decision?” Lan Xiaoni spoke in an authoritative voice.
Many of the mighty figures were embarrassed upon hearing this.
A period of turmoil and unrest had taken place in the West Sea Alliance when news of An Lin’s death had first spread. Despite Lan Xiaoni’s best efforts to maintain the cohesion and stability of the alliance, there were still many mighty figures who were unconvinced by her decision.
When the Heavenly Human Tribe appeared, there were many mighty figures and even super mighty figures who had detached themselves from the West Sea Alliance. Right when the entire alliance was on the verge of breaking down, Lan Xiaoni awakened her power of water and managed to quell the unrest with absolute power to become the paramount leader of the West Sea Alliance again!
However, many mighty figures were still very displeased and were of the opinion that they shouldn’t be fighting for the human race and the Super Heavenly Lightning God, who was most likely dead.
However, Lan Xiaoni was always of the firm belief that An Lin would come back and that he would lead the human race and the West Sea to unprecedented glory.
The High Priests Gu Yu and Yu Feiyu, who were the most proficient at divination, had predicted that there would be a chance for a future of unprecedented glory if they decided to follow An Lin.
Thus, the West Sea Alliance became the most resolute allies of the human race and defended the western front for them.
They did so for over fifty years!
God knew how they managed to persevere through it all!
Fortunately, Lan Xiaoni’s words really did eventuate.
The Super Heavenly Lightning God really did come back, and he returned with a massive bang. He had wiped out the Heavenly Human Tribe United Army on the southern front to announce his return!
This was an extremely invigorating piece of news to the West Sea Alliance, and it showed them that they had followed the right person, that all their efforts were worth it in the end.
At the same time, Lan Xiaoni’s authority was stamped even more firmly upon the West Sea Alliance.
Everyone looked up at the woman on the throne, and they proclaimed their sincere loyalty in unison. “We would gladly lay down our lives for Alliance Leader Lan!”
A faint smile appeared on Lan Xiaoni’s face, but she didn’t say anything. However, her heart was whooping for joy!
