#7463 - Change name!

The Lord of the Nine Nether Demon Palace laughed and made the atmosphere of this meeting suddenly become relaxed, not as serious as the previous times.

This was also because the Demon Palace had successfully resolved the crises in Phoenix Valley and Chunyang Sect during this expedition, allowing the Nine Nether Demon Palace's situation in the Seven Nights Divine Sect's territory to become better.

"This time, the Saint Elder Duanmu Peng and Lei Qin, the Emperor Lin Bai, the Goddess Li Guxian... and the soldiers and warriors who went on the expedition all made contributions!"

"As for who among you has made the greatest contribution, then don't push it off among yourselves."

Lin Bai and Li Guxian nodded imperceptibly, stood up and thanked him.

At this time.

Saint Elder Luo Yuanjing leaned back in his chair, thought for a moment and then said:

"Since the Pure Yang Sect and Phoenix Valley have already been subordinated to the Demon Palace, the Seven Nights Divine Sect currently has no intention of resisting."

"I think some things can be put on the agenda."

"For example, announce to the world that the 'Seven Nights Divine Sect Territory' will be officially renamed the 'Nine Nether Demon Palace Territory'."

"The Nine Nether Demon Palace will return to the stage of the Eastern Region of the Demon Realm as a 'powerful force'!"

After hearing this, although Lin Bai did not show much opposition and did not have any special opinions, he became a little worried when he thought that the problems of Fantian Sect and Baitian Sect had not been resolved yet.

Li Guxian expressed her agreement:

"What the Saint Elder said is correct. This matter should indeed be pushed forward."

"It just so happens that after announcing that the 'Seven Nights Divine Sect Territory' has been renamed the 'Nine Nether Demon Palace Territory', the situation in the Seven Nights Divine Sect Territory can also become clear."

"By then, we will have enough confidence to negotiate with Fantian Sect and Baitian Sect."

"Either the Fantian Sect and the Baitian Sect accept our rule, or we will start a war with them!"

Saint Elders Lei Qin and Duanmu Peng did not express their opinions, but listened silently, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.

The Lord of the Nine Nether Demon Palace listened carefully to what Li Guxian and Saint Elder Luo Yuanjing had to say, and was slightly thoughtful.

"Emperor, what is your opinion?"

After thinking for a long time, the Demon Palace Master did not seem to make a decision. Instead, he asked Lin Bai for his opinion.

Lin Bai moved his mouth twice, thought for a moment and replied:

“Although I think it’s a bit inappropriate to rename ‘Seven Nights Divine Sect Territory’ to ‘Nine Nether Demon Palace Territory’ now.”

"But I also think that what Goddess Li Guxian said is correct. Now we need to make the situation in the territory of the Seven Nights Divine Sect clear."

“After the name change, any opposing forces in the Seven Nights Divine Sect’s territory will naturally jump out, and then the Demon Palace will be easy to deal with!”

"More importantly..."

Lin Bai paused here and continued:

"More importantly... the Eastern Region of the Demon Realm needs the Seven Nights Divine Sect to stabilize its territory. By renaming the Seven Nights Divine Sect Territory to the Nine Nether Demon Palace Territory, we can reveal a very important message to the Eastern Region of the Demon Realm, that is, the Seven Nights Divine Sect territory is slowly becoming stable!"

"In this way, the warriors in the Eastern Region of the Demon Realm will definitely feel reassured about the current situation where the Eastern Region of the Demon Realm is under siege from the Southern Region and the Western Region."

The Lord of the Nine Nether Demon Palace nodded as he listened to Lin Bai's opinion, seeming to agree with it very much.

Li Guxian smiled and added: "There is one more thing."

"The plague created by the Southern Territory Worm Valley in the Qitian Sect's territory caused a large number of warriors to flee the Qitian Sect's territory and go to other territories."

"The warriors from the Qitian Sect who fled to Wansheng Mountain and the territory of Chu were all properly arranged on the border."

"On the other hand, more and more warriors are fleeing to our Seven Nights Divine Sect's territory. They are banding together for warmth and have become a considerable force within the Seven Nights Divine Sect's territory."

“If no sect forces stand up to stop this chaos at this moment, I’m afraid it won’t be long before the Qitian Sect warriors who have fled to the territory of the Qiye Divine Sect will form a very powerful force!”

"This will make the situation in this territory worse and worse!"

"The territory of the Seven Nights Divine Sect is already in chaos enough, with the Fantian Sect and the Baitian Sect eyeing it covetously, and the Demon-Slaying Alliance doing whatever it wants. If the Qitian Sect Warrior Alliance is added to the mix, the situation in the territory of the Seven Nights Divine Sect will definitely get even worse."

After she said this, she looked at Lin Bai and the Lord of the Nine Nether Demon Palace and said:

“Once the Nine Nether Demon Palace announces that the ‘Seven Nights Divine Sect Territory’ will be renamed the ‘Nine Nether Demon Palace Territory’, then the Nine Nether Demon Palace will be able to legitimately take over this territory.”

"It will be much easier to deal with these warriors who have fled from the Qitian Sect's territory by then."

"We also have a legitimate reason to be a teacher!"

Lin Bai also expressed his agreement and understanding.

Ever since the Southern Xinjiang Worm Valley created a plague in the Qitian Sect's territory, more and more warriors from the Qitian Sect have fled with their families to the Qiye Divine Sect's territory, the Wansheng Mountain territory, and the Chu State's territory.

There were originally a great number of warriors in the Eastern Region of the Demon Realm, and now the number of warriors escaping from the territory of the Qitian Sect is not just one or two, not one or two thousand, and certainly not ten or twenty thousand.

But thousands.

According to statistics from the Chu State and Wansheng Mountain, the number of warriors from the Qitian Sect who have fled to the borders of the Chu State and Wansheng Mountain has exceeded hundreds of millions!

Billions of lives!

This is equivalent to all the warriors in a certain "Qianzhou" within the territory of Qitian Sect fleeing collectively.

This number was obtained under the intentional control and expulsion of Wansheng Mountain and the State of Chu.

On the other hand, the territory of the Seven Nights Divine Sect has been ownerless for some time.

The Fantian Sect and the Baitian Sect, the Chunyang Sect and the Phoenix Valley, each formed an alliance and fought on their own.

The Qinglian Sect sat on the mountain and watched the fight between the two tigers, appearing to remain neutral.

The Jiuyou Demon Palace was spurned and resisted by the warriors from the Eastern Region of the Demon Realm, and did not have enough energy to deal with the matter.

As a result, the number of warriors from the Qitian Sect who fled to the Qiye Divine Sect’s territory was several times more than the number of warriors who fled to the Chu State and the Wansheng Mountain territories!

If there are "hundreds of millions" of warriors from the Qitian Sect on the borders of Chu State and Wansheng Mountain, then within the territory of the Qiye Divine Sect, the number is already several times higher than this number.

This is not a good thing.

They fled from the territory of the Qi Tian Sect, far away from their hometown and territory.

After arriving in the territory of the Seven Nights Divine Sect, the first thing to do is to acquire territory and resources, which will inevitably trigger a war between the local forces in the territory of the Seven Nights Divine Sect and these fugitives.

Li Guxian's suggestion was... After the Jiuyou Demon Palace renamed the 'Seven Nights Divine Sect Territory' to the 'Jiuyou Demon Palace Territory', the Demon Palace would be able to deal with the warriors who escaped from the Qitian Sect Territory with justification.

They could also follow the methods of the Chu State and Wansheng Mountain and trap the people from the Qitian Sect on the border, preventing them from entering the Qiye Divine Sect without permission.

After receiving the approval and support from Lin Bai and Li Guxian, the Lord of the Nine Nether Demon Palace asked the three Saint Elders:

"Three holy elders, please give us your opinions."

Saint Elder Luo Yuanjing smiled and said, "This matter was originally proposed by me, so I naturally support it."

Saint Elder Duanmu Peng also nodded and said, "Since the Emperor's son and Saint Elder Luo Yuanjing have agreed, then I also support it."

The last Saint Elder, Lei Qin, smiled and said, "Since no one has any objection, then I have no objection either."

After the Lord of the Nine Nether Demon Palace received everyone's answers, he slowly nodded and said:

"good."

"It's decided then."

"Leave this matter to Saint Elder Luo Yuanjing, and instruct the Council of Elders to draft a charter as soon as possible and send the news to all the top sects in Chu State, Wansheng Mountain, and the Eastern Region of the Demon Realm."

Saint Elder Luo Yuanjing nodded repeatedly and agreed. At the same time, he also asked the Demon Palace Master:

"Palace Master, according to convention, a celebration must be held when a 'territory' is renamed, especially when it is renamed 'The Territory of the Prosperous Power'."

“At that time, we will need to invite all the top forces and prosperous forces in the Eastern Region of the Demon Realm to be present!”

"After the celebration, we have received the recognition of all the powerful forces and top sects in the Eastern Region of the Demon Realm. Only then can we be considered to have completely taken over the 'territory'."

"When do you think this celebration would be held?"

When Lin Bai heard this, he frowned secretly, couldn't help laughing, and interrupted and asked:

"In the current situation in the Eastern Region of the Demon Realm, is it still necessary to hold a celebration?"

Saint Elder Luo Yuanjing nodded and said:

“Son of the Emperor, don’t underestimate this celebration. It represents whether the way our Nine Nether Demon Palace obtains the territory of the Seven Nights Divine Sect is real, and whether it can be recognized by the Eastern Region of the Demon Realm!”

"This is like the change of the imperial power in the State of Chu."

"Why does every generation of Chu emperor hold a birthday celebration? This is not only a celebration, but also to announce to the world who will be the next Chu emperor."

"When the next 'Emperor Chu' ascends the throne, he will need to hold a celebration and gain recognition from the warriors of the Demon World or the Demon East Region. Only then can he be considered to have secured his throne."

At this point, Saint Elder Luo Yuanjing chuckled:

"If we don't hold a celebration and just announce to the world that we have become a powerful force and renamed the Seven Nights Divine Sect's territory to the Nine Nether Demon Palace's territory, we won't be recognized by the warriors in the Eastern Region of the Demon Realm."

"'Recognition' from a warrior is a very important thing."

"In addition, during the 'celebration', the current leader of the Seven Nights Divine Sect, Yi Gu, will be present to inform the warriors of the Demon Realm that the Seven Nights Divine Sect has given up its territory and officially become a vassal of the Demon Palace."

Lin Bai nodded thoughtfully.

Simply put, this celebration is to prove that the Jiuyou Demon Palace seized the territory through legitimate means, and it also requires the current leader of the Qiye Divine Sect, Yi Gu, to come and issue the "abdication edict."

“What a hassle.”

Lin Bai smiled bitterly and shook his head. He never thought that just changing the name would cause so much trouble.

But when he thought about it carefully, it was true.

If this kind of "celebration" is not held and only an official document is issued to announce it to the world, wouldn't it easily become "rumor"?

Today, the Jiuyou Demon Palace issued an official document to announce to the world that the "Seven Nights Divine Sect's Territory" will be renamed as the "Jiuyou Demon Palace's Territory". If no celebration is held, then other sects and families can also issue an announcement tomorrow to inform all warriors in the world that the Seven Nights Divine Sect's territory will be renamed as the territory of their family or sect.

Houtian Fantian Sect can issue an official document to rename the "Qiye Shenzong Territory" to the "Fantian Sect Territory".

The Great Houtian Sect can also issue an official document to rename the "Qiye Shenzong Territory" to the "Baitian Sect Territory".

If this continues, the "name change" will become a joke and its credibility will be completely lost.

That is why Saint Elder Luo Yuanjing attaches so much importance to this "celebration".

Moreover, this "celebration" must also involve the core senior leaders of the Chu State, Wansheng Mountain, Qitian Sect, and all the top sects in the Eastern Region of the Demon Realm. At least the Son of God and the Holy Daughter must be present in person to have enough credibility!

The Lord of the Nine Nether Demon Palace nodded and said:

"Since we are going to change the name, then this celebration must naturally be held."

"This also puts a perfect end to our Demon Palace's long-term plan."

Li Guxian smiled gently and said:

"It can be said that my daughter's work over the past few hundred years has not been in vain."

The Lord of the Nine Nether Demon Palace chuckled and said, "The contribution that Goddess Li Guxian has made to the Demon Palace is not only seen by this Lord, but also by Emperor Lin Bai, and the three Saint Elders sitting here are also well aware of it."

"The Demon Palace will never let down the efforts of Goddess Li Guxian, and will remember its promise to Goddess Li Guxian."

“Even if one day I am no longer the Palace Master of the Demon Palace and Emperor Lin Bai becomes the Palace Master of the Demon Palace, he will keep and fulfill his promise today.”

“If Emperor Lin Bai does not fulfill his promise to Goddess Li Guxian after becoming the Lord of the Demon Palace, then the Saint Elders will naturally not speak for Goddess Li Guxian.”

The Demon Palace Master's words undoubtedly gave Li Guxian a reassurance.

Li Guxian traveled far and wide for the Demon Palace's long-term plan. The Demon Palace once promised her that it would at least allow her to become a warrior in the Chaos Dao Fruit realm, or a warrior in the Supreme Dao Fruit realm.

Simply put, after completing the mission of "The Demon Palace's Ten Thousand Year Plan", Li Guxian will be reported by the Demon Palace to at least the 'Chaos Dao Fruit Realm'. As for whether he can become a warrior in the Supreme Dao Fruit Realm, it depends on Li Guxian's own opportunity and luck.

What the Demon Palace Master said was to tell Li Guxian that no matter how the power in the Demon Palace changes in the future, he will not break his promise to Li Guxian.

Li Guxian smiled and glanced at Lin Bai, then said, "I naturally believe that the prince is not the kind of person who would break a promise."

Lin Bai smiled bitterly and said, "Goddess Li Guxian, don't say that. I may not necessarily become the next Palace Master of the Demon Palace."

Li Guxian raised her eyebrows and said, "You are joking, Dizi. Currently, many warriors in the Eastern Region of the Demon Realm are betting on Senior Brother Dizi. Even if Senior Brother Dizi is unwilling to be the Palace Master of the Demon Palace, they will force Senior Brother Dizi to be the Palace Master of the Demon Palace."

"Wang Zhengyang, the Saint Son of Wansheng Mountain, Chu Junyou, the Crown Prince of Chu State, Qi Lingyu, the Saint Son of Qitian Sect...the Saint Sons of these three most powerful forces have openly announced their support for Senior Brother Emperor to become the Emperor Son of the Demon Palace."

"And within the territory of the Seven Nights Divine Sect, the Seven Nights Divine Sect and Phoenix Valley have reached an agreement directly with Senior Brother Di Zi."

"For their common interests, even if Senior Brother Di Zi doesn't want to be the Demon Palace Master now, it's impossible."

"They will force Senior Brother Di Zi to become the Palace Master of the Demon Palace, because this concerns the interests of many forces and many people!"
