"To some extent, that is true. In a place like Pinocchio, where there is a lot of desire and discontent, and information flows quickly, his abilities would become very strong, and could even cause large-scale turmoil."
"Over the years, many planets have been destroyed by his experiments."
Ruan Mei said some ambiguous things.
Bai Zhi felt that Ruan Mei's description of the characteristics was similar to Huanlong, but there were some differences.
Taking a deep breath, she decided to ignore it. She would know once she went to Pinocchio. Whether it was Huanlong or something else, with her strength, as long as she didn't encounter a supermodel like Huang Quan, she should be able to gain the upper hand.
After bidding farewell to Ruan Mei, Bai Zhi arrived at the Shence Mansion.
However, it was not the original guards who opened the gates of the Shence Mansion, but Fu Xuan.
"Lord Taibu, you've come too."
Fu Xuan was also somewhat surprised. She stopped, a conflicted expression on her face. She moved her lips but remained silent.
"Fu Qing?"
Jing Yuan called out with some confusion, but as if he had thought of something, he put on a show-watching expression again.
"Lord Taibu?"
Bai Zhi was also a little puzzled. What was Fu Xuan doing? Could it be that he had divined that she was going to suffer some kind of disaster?
The hesitation on Fu Xuan's face finally disappeared, and her attitude became somewhat respectful. She clearly called out, "Little... General Bai Zhi, Jing Yuan is waiting for you."
"General Bai Zhi..."
Bai Zhi shivered. Why did Fu Xuan use that title, and why did she suddenly feel as if there was a pathetic barrier between them?
Bai Zhi glanced at Jing Yuan, who was grinning mischievously behind her, with a speechless look, as if to say, "What's going on here?"
But seeing that Jing Yuan was just smiling but not saying anything, Bai Zhi could only sigh.
“Lord Diviner, there’s no need for that. It makes me uncomfortable to be addressed like that… Let’s stick to the way we used to address each other.”
Bai Zhi looked awkward; it was strange that Fu Xuan addressed her as "General" in such an attitude.
Even if you add up both lifetimes, the Grand Diviner is still much older than her.
Moreover, she has a good relationship with the Grand Diviner.
"Haha, Fu Qing, Fu Qing, Xiao Baizhi isn't the kind of person who likes to put on airs just because she's a general."
Jing Yuan's hearty laughter finally broke the silence, leaving Bai Zhi speechless at his perverse sense of humor.
The other party must have already guessed what Fu Xuan was struggling with, but they were just pretending to be stupid.
"Humph……"
Fu Xuan's face immediately turned bright red. She stamped her foot and said, "I'm just showing respect for etiquette, Jing Yuan, what do you know, you old man!"
"Alright, alright. If I retire in the future and Fu Qing takes over, I will respectfully address Fu Qing as General Fu Xuan."
Jingyuan's smile widened.
"Old man, are you making fun of me?!"
Fu Xuan's face turned red with anger; she had been agonizing over this matter for half the day.
As the newly appointed general, Bai Zhi should change her attitude, but how to address her is another matter entirely.
He was just about to go out for a walk to clear his head and think about this problem when he bumped into Bai Zhi as soon as he opened the door.
So, after a brief moment of thought, that somewhat lapse in judgment occurred.
"Alright, alright, both the Grand Diviner and the General are elders I respect, and I believe that the Grand Diviner works diligently every day and will definitely become an outstanding general in the future."
"If given the opportunity, I would certainly recommend the Grand Diviner to the Alliance as the new general."
Upon hearing Bai Zhi's words, Fu Xuan's eyes lit up. "Really?"
"Really! Doesn't the Grand Diviner believe me? I don't seem like the kind of person who likes to lie."
Bai Zhi glanced at Jing Yuan and then added, "As everyone knows, I, Bai Zhi, never lie."
Chapter 967 General, I desperately want to advance!
"Ahem, Little Angelica understands me best, unlike some others."
Upon hearing that Bai Zhi might recommend him, Fu Xuan first showed a hint of smugness, but then forcibly suppressed it and finally looked at a certain Shence General who was watching the show.
“Fu Qing, how can you say that? I understand your desire to improve, but this improvement also depends on the timing. Moreover, whatever we do, we must stand on the side of the people of Xianzhou.”
Fu Xuan rolled his eyes at Jing Yuan. "General, I've already had my fill of your flatbread."
"Oh dear, look at you, in such a hurry again. Fu Qing, do you know why I only called you out of the Six Emperors today?"
"Hmph, it's probably because only I am willing to waste this precious time to fool around with you."
Jing Yuan's lips curled up slightly. "That's because you'll be experiencing Xiao Baizhi's coronation ceremony too. I'm here to give you a preview of it."
"Besides, since you've arranged these things yourself, when you take over, won't you be able to skillfully arrange the things you like?"
At this point, Jing Yuan sighed, "I never expected that Minister Fu would not understand my good intentions, truly..."
"Really...really?"
Hearing this, Fu Xuan began to wonder if he had been too harsh on Jing Yuan.
Moreover, what the other party said is also true. They didn't call out to the other six emperors, but only to me. Doesn't that mean they value me?
Calling me here is an experience I gained from participating in a general's coronation; I'll definitely find it useful when I'm crowned myself in the future.
Is this Jing Yuan hinting that he will recommend him to the alliance in the future?
Fu Xuan began to hesitate.
Could it be that Jingyuan has really changed his ways?
"Does Fu Qing think I'm the kind of person who's always lying?"
Seeing that Fu Xuan was beginning to hesitate, Jing Yuan put in even more effort.
"Alright, General, I misunderstood you."
Fu Xuan raised his head arrogantly, "You've got good taste, leave those jobs to me."
"As expected of Fu Qing, although he is not a general yet, he already has the prestige and mental fortitude of a general."
Jing Yuan immediately gave a thumbs up.
Seeing this, Bai Zhi helplessly covered her forehead. The Grand Diviner was clearly quite clever, so how could he have been fooled by Jing Yuan like this?
The reason we hired you is because you're efficient and a perfect person to be enslaved.
"It's a pity that the general isn't serving as the Commander of Wisdom."
Bai Zhi sighed and said speechlessly.
"Haha, the fate of intellect is neither reasonable nor logical. This general only hopes to sleep a little more each day. Worrying too much is bad for your health."
"General, your level of demonic body is probably lower than that of most people on the Immortal Ship."
"Ahem, that's not the point. Here, Little Angelica, take a look at the details of your coronation ceremony."
Jingyuan took a document out from under his desk and handed it to Baizhi.
"Detailed rules for the coronation ceremony..."
Bai Zhi took the documents and casually flipped through them. Actually, these things weren't entirely unfamiliar to her; they were quite similar to her Dragon Lord coronation ceremony.
However, relatively speaking, as the General of the Immortal Boat, the scale of this ceremony will be larger.
The key point is simply that during the coronation ceremony, one should avoid being too abstract or self-expressive, and instead pay attention to the interstellar visibility of the Celestial Ship.
Bai Zhi scratched her head. She felt that the reason this document mentioned this was because a previous general must have done something particularly abstract during his coronation ceremony.
This is why behind every seemingly outrageous rule, there must be some outrageous events.
"Speaking of which, did Xiao Baizhi invite any people to attend? The coronation ceremony was a bit rushed; she didn't give you much time to invite people in advance."
"Yep."
Bai Zhi put down the document and replied.
"Oh?"
Jing Yuan was somewhat surprised. "How many are there? If you don't have time to greet them, I can send someone to pick them up."
"Only one guest was invited."
"Anyone who can get an invitation from Xiaobaizhi must be extraordinary."
Fu Xuan also chimed in.
Bai Zhi nodded. "She is indeed quite extraordinary; she is Ruan Mei, the 81st member of the Genius Club."
"Ruan Mei? That genius actually came to Luofu Immortal Ship because of you, Xiao Baizhi. I didn't expect that you, Xiao Baizhi, would have such a good relationship with him."
This was indeed somewhat unexpected for Jing Yuan. He had originally anticipated that it would be Bronya, the head of Belloberg, or Robin or Sunday from Pinocchio's side.
I never expected it to be this genius, Ruan Mei.
Every genius possesses immense power. Although some of these geniuses are not Commanders, the power they can unleash far surpasses that of ordinary Commanders.
Just like how the Interstellar Peace Corporation treats the Black Tower with an almost obsequious attitude, it's not simply based on strength, but also on the genius and powerful mind.
Inviting this person to the coronation ceremony is, in a sense, a great honor.
"Hmm, of course, General, don't underestimate me."
"Haha, with Xiao Baizhi's abilities, how could I underestimate her? However, you'll have to memorize these lines."
Jing Yuan then pulled out a stack of documents from the table.
"so much??"
Bai Zhi was stunned when she saw that stack of manuscripts, which was at least ten thousand words long.
This instantly reminded her of the painful times she used to spend memorizing texts.
"Is it a lot? When I have meetings with the six of you, they can last all day. These drafts are just some of the most basic things."
Jing Yuan smiled and pulled out a stack of documents. "This is all the stuff I need to deal with in a day."
"Little Baizhi will be a general in the future, and she needs to learn these necessary skills."
"General, with your typical leadership style, who knows what other people are thinking about you, calling you a nag."
Bai Zhi refused, saying that rather than having her memorize the thick script in a day, it would be better to let her improvise.
"Haha, how could I not know? But sometimes, meetings are like this. Every detail must be made clear. Otherwise, if even a small mistake occurs, it will be a huge accident for the hundreds of billions of people in Luofu."
Jing Yuan tapped the table and explained.
"As for your draft... it was naturally prepared by someone skilled in writing within the Shence Mansion to ensure its accuracy. However, if Xiao Baizhi has her own ideas, she is welcome to improvise."
"Then I'll do it myself. Besides, I'm not like you, General, managing everything in Luofu. Even if it's a planet under my own name, I'll just be a hands-off manager."
Chapter 968 The General's Coronation Ceremony is Underway
"Ladies and gentlemen, I am your good friend Jimi. You must be very curious as one of the star hosts of Interstellar Peace Company, why I am not in the live broadcast room, but instead came to Luofu Immortal Ship."
In Luofu Changletian, a plump snowy owl is holding a microphone, broadcasting live to a vast audience across the stars.
"Haha, I saw the viewers' comments. No, no, no, I didn't come to Luofu to experience the fairy boat culture here, but because of something much more important."
There was a lot of discussion in the live stream room.
[Something big? Could it be that the Immortal Ship has announced it will be selling the elixir of immortality to other companies?]
[I heard that recently an interstellar empire has imposed a 500% tariff on surrounding countries. Some of those countries are under the protection of the Celestial Ship, right? Is this what they're talking about?]
[I'm from planet Yalilo 6, it's true. A neighboring interstellar empire asked us for this, it's really outrageous.]
[Does this trivial matter warrant such a formal announcement from the Immortal Ship? I bet it's because the Immortal Ship has conquered the Demonic Yin Body!]
Yes, yes, it was all solved using my old formula from the Immortal Boat. The Immortal Boat formula has been passed down for thousands of years. Buy it while supplies last!!
Seeing that the guesses in the comments were getting more and more outrageous, Jimi felt that the atmosphere had been built up enough, so he began to reveal the answer.
"Everyone, do you still remember the Dragon Lord on this Luofu Immortal Ship?"
