1058. Not to steal glory
Xiao Yan looked at Little Fairy Doctor so close to him. She met his gaze directly, her eyes revealing no ill intent. Xiao Yan understood that if things got serious, he would likely never win an argument with her. Nevertheless, he shook his head.
"We are indeed husband and wife, but you are also Little Fairy Doctor. You must attend in person tomorrow, and these things must be said by you personally."
Xiao Yan genuinely believed in his beloved Xiao Yi Xian, and he showed his support for her through his actions. Xiao Yan disliked stealing the limelight from others, especially his lover.
Little Fairy Doctor flicked her finger and gently tapped Xiao Yan's head: "Stop fooling around. If I were to say something about these things, would you still be able to sit securely in your position as the alliance leader?"
Xiao Yan grabbed Little Fairy Doctor's wrist and said sincerely and frankly, "With you by my side, why wouldn't I feel secure?"
"Moreover, I was already mentally prepared for this. As time goes on, everyone in the alliance will realize that your words carry more weight than mine as the alliance leader most of the time."
Little Fairy Doctor smiled and teased, "That's right, there might be some rumors that Alliance Leader Xiao Yan has been sidelined."
Xiao Yan knew that Little Fairy Doctor still wanted to refuse, so he put his hands on her shoulders and said, "Promise me, because I also want to see how dazzling my wife is when she gets serious."
Since giving birth to her children and holding an unprecedented grand wedding with Xiao Yan, Little Fairy Doctor felt that her mental state had reached a new level, and few things could disturb her mind.
But what Xiao Yan said now touched her heart uncontrollably; it was a feeling of being truly trusted.
Afraid of losing her composure, Little Fairy Doctor let out a soft breath and shook her head slightly: "Alright, alright, since the young master became the alliance leader, he has become increasingly domineering. I am but a humble woman with little influence, and I really can't go against your wishes."
Hearing this, Xiao Yan smiled sweetly, knowing that Little Fairy Doctor was teasing him. The two had a clear division of labor when it came to making decisions on many matters. Most of the time, Little Fairy Doctor's judgments were accurate, and Xiao Yan trusted them implicitly.
On rare occasions, Xiao Yan's decisions would contradict Xiao Yi Xian's rational choices. In these situations, even if Xiao Yi Xian knew that Xiao Yan was being unwise, she would choose to comply. Xiao Yi Xian herself had reflected on this matter, but the process was quite brief, and she quickly came to terms with it without much effort.
The reason is simple: it was precisely those irrational and unwise decisions that determined who Xiao Yan was. He was the Xiao Yan she deeply loved, the Xiao Yan for whom she was willing to give everything.
Without that part, he would just be a shrewd and self-serving strongman, no different from anyone else, and therefore not worthy of Little Fairy Doctor's favor.
For example, right now, Xiao Yan can use simple words to stir up Xiao Yi Xian's emotions again. This pure and unadulterated trust is precisely what is most touching.
Of course, there are more direct ways, such as spending a night together. A beautiful and enchanting night is always too precious to waste, and one doesn't want to fall asleep without doing anything. As for their daughter, Xiao Qingqing, she hasn't cultivated yet, so she wouldn't know what her parents do at night…
A month after the raid ended, the League held its second conference.
Compared to the haste and rush of the last event, this conference can be described as meticulously prepared. The number of Dou Sheng-level powerhouses has even increased compared to last time, since some members of the alliance were initially completely unaware of the surprise attack.
Now, this alliance has gained a foothold in the spirit world, and the arrival of several batches of powerful individuals signifies that the alliance is on the right track.
Powerful figures from various factions continue to enter the Spirit Realm, and their presence is constantly increasing the safety of the Spirit Realm.
Now that things have come to this point, it's indeed necessary to seriously settle the alliance's affairs, because without a proper name, one's words will lack authority. As the alliance leader, Xiao Yan is not one to act unilaterally; he prefers to discuss matters together.
The number of participants in the new conference has indeed increased. On the one hand, the leaders of the major forces are basically in place, including Little Fairy Doctor, Venerable Wind, Tang Zhen, Xuan Yi, and Elder Qingmu.
On the other hand, almost all the powerful warriors from various major forces were present.
If the last gathering was the beginning of this alliance, then this one is its true birth!
Seeing that everyone who was supposed to be there had arrived, Xiao Yan took the initiative to stand up. As the leader of the alliance, he had to speak first.
"Gentlemen, through the last conference and the surprise attack on the Spirit Race, we have successfully gained control of the Spirit Realm. However, this alliance is still in its early stages, and many things require our collective wisdom. Today, I hope everyone will speak freely and without hesitation!"
Aside from the powerful individuals who participated in the raid, the newly joined experts all felt somewhat dazed at this moment.
The previous battle was incredibly fast and efficient. Even they hadn't expected that their powerful member, who had only gone to discuss alliance matters, would directly take over the Spirit Realm of the Dou Di descendant family.
The atmosphere was slightly serious when Xuan Yi broke the silence, saying, "We keep calling it 'alliance,' so how about we start today's meeting by naming the alliance?"
After hearing this, most people nodded in agreement. Their alliance was currently operating in the shadows. However, as time went on, they would reveal their true nature, and it was only a matter of time before they confronted the Soul Clan and the Ancient Clan. Having a clear name was indeed very important.
Elder Qingmu couldn't help but say, "The alliance needs to fight against the Soul Clan and the Ancient Clan. I think we should call it the Azure Sky Alliance; that name is impressive enough!"
After speaking, Elder Aoki couldn't help but smile, clearly pleased with the name he had chosen. However, when he scanned the entire room, he noticed that most of the powerful figures present looked embarrassed, and no one responded for a moment. It wasn't until his old partner, Elder Aoki, coughed lightly that he belatedly realized his mistake and could only cough twice in return to ease the awkwardness.
"What about Danxia landforms?"
"This name seems a bit too biased towards alchemists."
"The Soul-Slaying Alliance?"
"Our opponents are not only the Soul Clan and the Soul Palace, and this name is a bit too targeted."
As the leader of the alliance, Xiao Yan also had a vague feeling at this moment.
"One of our main adversaries is the Soul Palace, so it would be best if our name reflected that. How about ending with 'Fu' (府), how about Heavenly Fu?"
