Yanqing here reported the situation to the Sky-Faring Commission, and then Jing Yuan's image appeared before Derick and the others.

"General, I'm sorry, I almost caused trouble today." Yanqing honestly admitted his mistake to Jing Yuan.

Although from the outcome, Yanqing had rendered meritorious service today, if the ones who came were not Borisin but genuine Foxians, then Yanqing would have committed a grave error today.

"I generally know the situation, but you need to elaborate on the specifics."

Derick and Yanqing recounted what had happened tonight.

After listening to Derick and Yanqing describe everything that had happened tonight, Jing Yuan looked at Yanqing, and said in a gentle tone:

"Yanqing, remember this lesson for next time. Starting tomorrow, your training will include willpower exercises. If you are controlled again next time, you could truly cause harm to the Lofu Xianzhou."

Jing Yuan continued:

"As for the reward for slaying the Borisin today, logically it should be yours. However, your actions today also caused considerable inconvenience to Derick and the others. Therefore, I plan to transfer this reward to Derick. Are you willing?"

"Willing, willing." Yanqing nodded repeatedly without the slightest hesitation.

Jing Yuan turned to Derick:

"Derick, I will transfer the reward to you later. Tonight's events were too troublesome for you."

"No trouble, no trouble. Yanqing is also my friend, helping him is only natural." Derick continuously indicated it was no problem.

As he said this, his heart stirred slightly, but he didn't show it, merely exchanging a glance with Jing Yuan. Jing Yuan instantly understood Derick's look, and after chatting a few more pleasantries with Derick, he hung up the communication.

After hanging up the communication, Derick looked at Yanqing and said to him:

"Let's go, Yanqing, it's almost dawn, you should go back and rest."

"Okay, Brother Derick, I'll leave now." Yanqing was very tired after the night's ordeal. He yawned and ran towards the Seat of Divine Foresight.

He had no fixed residence on the Lofu Xianzhou, and all his monthly salary was used to buy swords. As for housing, he always stayed with General Jing Yuan in the Seat of Divine Foresight.

He walked towards the Seat of Divine Foresight, while Derick took Castorice and the others back to the Alchemy Commission to rest.

Hyacine had come hoping to see if any of the "Foxians" Yanqing attacked could be treated. But now seeing that they were all disguised Borisin, she just checked to confirm they were dead and then left directly.

Dealing with bodies was not within her scope of responsibility.

After Derick and the others left, the surroundings once again fell silent. After a while, confirming that no one was around, that Borisin, Moldu, appeared here.

"What is going on?! How did Heliobi get involved in this? These guys, they really died!"

Moldu didn't know how to evaluate the situation.

Heliobi caused incidents on the Lofu Xianzhou, but the Xianzhou natives suffered no losses; all those who got into trouble were their own Borisin. These Borisin had died in place of the Xianzhou natives!

"Damn Heliobi, damn Xianzhou natives!" Moldu cursed in a low voice, using the Borisin language.

But then, after thinking for a moment, he felt somewhat fortunate.

Fortunately, the previous battle with Yanqing had made him clearly aware of Derick's combat power. If he hadn't known Derick's combat power, Moldu felt he probably would have died with them too.

Moldu then pondered how he should find Derick, and just then, he felt a weight on his shoulder, someone was patting his shoulder.

Being patted like this, Moldu subconsciously wanted to counterattack. He grabbed the hand placed on his shoulder, intending to throw the enemy over his shoulder. However, as soon as he moved, he found the hand holding him down was extraordinarily heavy, making it impossible to move.

Moldu looked back in panic, only to find it was Derick.

"I'm doomed, will I be punched to death in a moment?"

Derick looked at Moldu, his gaze filled with scrutiny. Just now, while communicating with General Jing Yuan, Derick, using the power of the Crimson Moon within his body, had discovered the lurking Moldu.

"What is this Borisin doing here?"

To avoid alerting the enemy, Derick exchanged a glance with Jing Yuan, then led the others to leave and go back to rest first. However, Derick himself did not go to rest; instead, he turned and came behind Moldu, holding him down, wanting to see what he intended to do.

"What are you Borisin planning?" Derick said to Moldu.

Seeing Derick, Moldu immediately knelt down without hesitation. While kneeling, he loudly said to Derick:

"Lord Derick, we are here to invite you to become the new War Chief of our Borisin. You have obtained the Crimson Moon, which makes you our new War Chief."

"What?! Make me War Chief?!"

Derick was also somewhat surprised to hear Moldu's words.

Moldu nodded repeatedly:

"Yes, Lord Derick, the Borisin currently have no one capable of leading them. If we don't have a new War Chief, we will likely be annihilated before long. For the continuation of our race, we naturally hope someone will become our War Chief to lead us."

Derick only half-believed Moldu's words. What he said about wanting Derick to become War Chief was only half true. Derick dared to guarantee that Moldu's initial intention in coming to the Lofu Xianzhou was definitely to tear open Derick's chest, obtain the Crimson Moon, and become the new War Chief himself.

Now, only after Yanqing's disturbance, he had no choice but to change his mind and say he wanted Derick to be War Chief.

Derick looked at Moldu and said to him:

"What you say sounds good, but I am currently a student of General Feixiao of the Yaoqing Xianzhou, a guard of the Qingqiu Army, and I have a very promising future in the Xianzhou Alliance. Why would I go and become your Borisin War Chief?"

"Lord Derick, what future do you have in the Xianzhou Alliance? You yourself are not a Xianzhou native, and you currently have the Crimson Moon within your body. With these two factors, you will only be ostracized in the Xianzhou Alliance. Look, you even killed a Lord Ravager, yet such a great deed has still not received any reward."

Moldu's words were not entirely wrong. The Xianzhou Alliance's political system had been operating for too long, and the number of conservatives was still too great.

Although their hearts also harbored hatred for the Abundance Abominations, they would certainly view Derick, whose origin was unclear and who carried something belonging to the enemy, with a degree of disdain.

Moldu continued to introduce the advantages of his side.

"As long as you come and become the War Chief of the Borisin, then all of us Borisin will obey your command. At that time, even the Xianzhou Generals won't live as freely as you. What the Xianzhou Alliance can give, we can give; what the Xianzhou Alliance cannot give, we can also give you."

What Moldu said was not false. Although the Xianzhou Alliance surpassed the Borisin in strength, the Xianzhou Alliance could not offer Derick many benefits, whereas the Borisin could.

Whether it's wealth, resources, or beauties, the Borisin could give Derick a lot. Derick had many beautiful maidens around him; if he liked that aspect, the Borisin could definitely satisfy Derick.

Although Borisin women generally do not conform to common aesthetics, the Borisin control no small number of planets, so finding beautiful maidens to present to Derick would be no difficulty at all.

Of course, these could only be considered pleasantries; the most important thing was the Borisin's method of power enhancement. Moldu naturally wouldn't believe that Derick would willingly become War Chief right now; he and the other Borisin would only trust him after seeing Derick devour an enemy.

Moldu believed that once the Borisin's method of power enhancement was experienced, no one would refuse that kind of rapid feeling of strength increase.

It was like drug addiction.

Derick showed a thoughtful expression, then patted Moldu's shoulder.

"I'll think about it first. For these two days, you should lie low on the Lofu Xianzhou. When needed, I will call for you."

"Yes, Lord Derick." Moldu nodded, then quietly slipped away to a place where no one could see him.

The next day, Derick dialed Feixiao's contact.

He intended to tell Feixiao about the situation here.

Although the conditions Moldu offered were good, Derick had little intention of accepting them.

This position of War Chief was not stable at all.

No matter how good the things bandits gave you were, they were snatched from others. A race that did not engage in production and only knew how to plunder would sooner or later encounter problems. Even if it was strong now, there was no future.

Derick would not be short-sighted to that extent.

Soon, Feixiao's communication rang.

"Derick, my good student, you finally remembered to call your teacher." Feixiao was very happy that Derick sought her out.

"Teacher, what are you doing right now? Why do I hear sounds of battle?"

"Oh? I recently discovered a pocket dimension of the 'Abominations of Abundance,' containing hundreds of thousands of them. I'm currently clearing them out." Feixiao said casually.

"Do you have something important to discuss with me? If not, I'll hang up first; I'll come find you after I've rested."

Hearing Feixiao say this, Derick quickly told her about what happened yesterday:

"Teacher, on my side..."

"Oh!? What did you say?! The Borisin want you to be their War Chief?!"

After hearing Moldu's intention, Feixiao said, quite surprised.

Derick nodded:

"Yes, I haven't replied to him yet. Teacher, I plan to feign agreement, and then find a way to categorize these Borisin and deal with them separately."

Derick still remembered the game's plot at that time: not all Borisin were bloodthirsty bandits. Among them were also many who desired only peace or a stable life.

Derick wanted to handle them separately.

Sometimes, it was still necessary to have an additional force and army under his command.

He had no opportunity before, but now that there was a possibility, Derick intended to try it.
