As Ye Zichen shifted his gaze, the others looked in his direction as well.
Especially after what he'd just said ….
Partners!
The alien-like guy in front of me is actually Ye Zichen's partner?
Everyone couldn't help but look at Pilar in a higher light.
By now, the Upheaval Alliance had long since become an existence that neither the God Realm nor the Three Realms could ignore.
It had an enormous alliance system, and it had internal factions.
Countless gods and yao wanted to join the Upheaval Alliance and rest on this giant tree.
However, the Upheaval Alliance had always been strict with its choices of allies. They'd relied on the nine-tailed fox clan, Xia Keke, Zhuge Kongming, and Wei Chen to get the dragons, vermillion birds, and white tigers to join.
Not long ago, these clan heads had joined the Upheaval Alliance.
As for the Black Tortoises …
The dragon clan head had tried to plead on their behalf, but Ye Zichen felt there was something strange about them. Even though they were one of the Four Sacred Beast Clans, the Black Tortoises hadn't joined the Upheaval Alliance.
From this, it was clear that Ye Zichen was very strict with his choices of allies.
It wasn't that the strength of their clans affected whether or not they joined the Upheaval Alliance. More importantly, Ye Zichen trusted them.
Pilar.
From the moment he entered the room, the others had already noticed his presence.
Or rather, given his appearance, it was hard to ignore him.
Not even Xiao Hu, who'd lived for nearly ten thousand years, had ever seen someone so ugly. It was hard not to take a few glances at him.
However, everyone's focus had been on Xiao Yumei and the others, so they hadn't paid much attention to Pilar.
Now, Ye Zichen changed the subject to Pilar.
More importantly, based on Ye Zichen's words, this alien fellow knew where the God Realm was.
Suddenly, Pilar became the focus of everyone's gazes.
An ordinary person would've long since collapsed under the pressure of so many emperors staring at them.
Pilar just smiled lightly, completely ignoring the gazes of these people. For better or worse, he'd once been a demon king, or rather, he still was. He just didn't have the terrifying power of a demon, nor did he have any loyal subjects.
"Do I need to prove my worth?" asked Pilar.
"Of course not," said Ye Zichen. "Your existence is the embodiment of your value, but only you can resolve the current situation. We don't have much contact with the Outer-Realm God Race. They didn't leave their address, so it's very difficult for us to find their location. "
"So you're asking for my help!"
"You could say that, but I prefer to think of it as helping a friend."
"Friends should help each other. I like this saying."
Pilar grinned, but he did not know how ugly his smile was. When the female managers in the room saw his smile, they almost vomited the food they had eaten a few years ago.
Ye Zichen tilted his head, then turned to the others in the room.
"You don't have to deal with Vice Alliance Master Xiao's matters. Go back and deal with your other matters. Xiao Hu, you stay! "
Everyone else in the room had left. After the last person had left the room, Xiao Hu used his divine sense to check that there was no one else around.
"Alliance Master, you're keeping me here because …"
Before he could finish his sentence, Xiao Hu saw a pill being thrown at him. The pill was pink in color, and there was even a hint of fragrance on its surface.
It wasn't like other pills, which had a strong medicinal aroma.
It was faint, and if you didn't smell it carefully, you wouldn't even notice it.
"Alliance Master!"
"This isn't for you to treat your injuries. You could say it's for you to heal."
Xiao Hu didn't quite understand what Ye Zichen was trying to say.
"What do you mean …."
"This is a pill our Hall of Pills developed."
The Hall of Pills!
This was the Upheaval Alliance's newly established Hall of Pills. Old Lord Taishang was the head of the Hall, and there were hundreds of divine-grade pill refiners, tens of thousands of grandmaster pill refiners, and countless master pill refiners.
The Hall of Pills existed to supply the Upheaval Alliance with pills.
Practically ninety percent of the Upheaval Alliance's pill refiners came from the Hall of Pills.
The Alliance Head and Vice Alliance Head were in charge of the Hall of Pills. Given Xiao Hu's level, he had no way of knowing what was going on. However, he knew that while the Hall of Pills was refining, they were also working on a new type of pill.
This was what he'd heard from Xiao Yan.
"I won't lie to you about this pill, but it's not a finished product." Ye Zichen glanced at the pill in Xiao Hu's hands. "I said it's not a finished product because no one has tested its effects before."
Any medicinal pill had to go through thousands of experiments and deliberations before it could be withdrawn.
No one knew the effects of a pill that hadn't been tested before.
It wasn't impossible for someone to die after eating it.
"I'm giving this pill to you because I think you're suitable," said Ye Zichen. "Don't blame me for using you to test the pill, but you have the final say. You can't force me to do it. But I have something to tell you …. "
"Alliance Head, please go ahead."
Xiao Hu didn't think Ye Zichen would harm him, but taking an untested pill like this was a recipe for disaster. Who knew what the final outcome would be?
Fate was a thing that could be easily misunderstood.
He trusted Ye Zichen, but he had to be careful about his own life.
"Old Lord Taishang personally refined this pill. As for who he is, you should know. He's the Pill God who's risen to fame in recent years!"
"It's him?" Xiao Hu froze.
He'd heard of the Pill God before. He'd ascended from the lower realms, and in less than two years he'd become the number one divine-grade pill refiner.
His pill-refining skills were unparalleled, and quite a few famous divine-grade pill refiners wanted to take him as their master, but he refused.
Quite a few factions had extended an olive branch to him, offering generous conditions that even emperors would go green with envy.
But this Pill God ….
He still refused.
Xiao Hu knew that a pill refiner had arrived in the Upheaval Alliance not long ago, but he never would have guessed it was the Pill God. If the Pill God had refined this pill, Xiao Hu had much more confidence in it.
"It seems you know."
Ye Zichen noticed Xiao Hu's change in expression and continued.
"I provided the recipe for this pill. Many great emperors of the Divine Mountains and the Fox Empress know about it, and they're all amazed by it. This is the first pill I've refined, and it's also the one with the most ingredients. "
"This …."
"I know. You've been stuck in the ruler realm for a long time, right?"
"That's right!" said Xiao Hu.
"If you're lucky, this pill might help you directly ascend to the Emperor level, but it might also help you become a mortal. This is an opportunity, but it's also an abyss. "
