Bai Shixin was completely surprised. He had made preparations to act, but he never expected that an insect would appear from the skies.

The deal between them was just to deal with fellow Greater Rats who had been urged by Nie Yuan to send themselves to their deaths. It did not include dealing with an unexpected factor like Cang Lang.

He never thought that the other party would actually take the initiative to act and help suppress this wretched Arctic Wolf.

At this moment, cheers sounded from the Square. 

"Well said, how dare you bully others with force? We don't want you to be King!"

"As expected of an influential clan from the Upper Realm, their insight is different. You should learn from them a little, you lowly mongrel..."

A group of Greater Rats already stood up and said hatefully.

This Arctic Wolf dared to launch a surprise attack and caused their Clan to suffer through humiliation. Since they could not beat it with force, they naturally had to resort to words instead.

Cang Lang's face flushed in fury although its heart was calm as ever. It was thinking about a question, 'Why do I always get beaten back every time I come out to show off…

'Right, the reason's very simple. I'm not wrong, it's just that my power isn't strong enough.

'I'm at the apex of the second-rate world, but I'm only dregs in the first-rate world. That's why I was beaten when meeting Elder Ancestor Bai, and why I don't have certainty of success and even have to fear its background when meeting Chong Daqing!

'Hmph, looks like I'll have to cultivate well and work harder. When I'm number one in the world, I'll come back again!'

It secretly resolved itself and suddenly disappeared from the Square without saying a single word.

It appeared soundlessly but left in full view of the public.

"Hahaha, that mongrel ran away with its tail between its legs!"

"This is all thanks to the reinforcement. Thankfully, Chief Bai made countless plans and invited reinforcements in advance to be absolutely safe. They even prevented that vile person from succeeding and defended our dignity of our Greater Rat Clan."

"Yeah, if I had to choose a leader for us, I'd choose Chief Bai. Without him, we'd be finished today!"

Although the credit belonged to the great green insect, since Bai Shixin arranged for supporters first, they quickly guided the opinions so that all the credit shifted to his efforts.

Although what they were saying was not false, it was only a part of the truth.

The Greater Rats in the Square got up from the ground and secretly nodded after hearing all these.

That was just the way it is. Now that there was no suppression from top-notch powerhouses in the clan, they could only let a top-notch wise man come to power. They would temporarily scrape by and deal with the parties until a genius younger generation appears who can support the overall situation and make progress.


Those who had the qualifications to attend the funeral were all Greater Rats with some scholarly positions, not those laborers or even those incomplete ones. They could be considered to be the Greater Rat elites.

They could naturally make reasonable judgments. There really were only a few people who were suitable candidates to rise to power.

By elimination, only the exceedingly wise Bai Shixin, who had always been selfless, impartial, and honest was the most suitable.

He also had an advantage: he could not cultivate.

This meant that if the other party did not perform well, he could be ousted at any time. They would not have to worry that a situation they were incapable of turning around would occur.

Disasters and fortune have always been interdependent, and good and bad luck always came together. A powerhouse leader was a good thing, but it was also a bad thing. Once the powerhouse could no longer be controlled, the entire clan may be led towards their demise.

They had heard of many legends in the Upper Realm where several strong and influential clans in the Upper Realm perished in that way. Some were treated as cultivation offerings by the powerhouses, and some provoked a stronger powerhouse, leading to the crisis of the extermination of the entire clan.

"I suggest that Chief Bai be our new King!" A Greater Rat supporter, seeing that the mood of the people was starting to brew, he might as well start to persuade and try to snatch the first contribution. When things blew over, he would be able to obtain more cultivation resources.

It was impossible not to arrange for supporters. The feelings of the public were blind, so without additional guidance, it would be hard to transform it to his own advantage. Everyone knew the importance of publicity.

"That's right, Chief Bai is the most familiar with daily operations. If he's king, then he can at least ensure a smooth transition."

"Yeah, yesterday's blackout was easily solved by Chief Bai. That really proved his capabilities!"

"Chief Bai is selfless, dedicated to the public, and works overtime every day. He's a role model for countless people. He's so hardworking, so why can't we choose him to become the King?"

"That- but he doesn't even have the strength to truss a chicken. Although he used to be a cultivation genius, he's a cripple now. If he becomes King, won't the other races laugh till their teeth drop if they find out?" Some 'non-supporters' sharply pointed out the problem.

"Yeah, the races will compete with each other in the future. There'll be matters involving kings and other kings as well. If…" Some independently thinking Greater Rats shook their heads when they thought of that.

If Bai Shixin kept getting defeated by the leaders of small clans, no matter how proficient he was in planning, he could not be the head. It was too humiliating!

This was not a trivial point. If the leader of a clan was not strong enough and was constantly beaten around by others, the clan's mind would definitely fall apart, and they would be looked down upon by all kinds of ridicule.

That feeling was definitely something unpleasant.

Therefore, while the supporters Bai Shixin arranged began to gain momentum, they encountered this unavoidable problem.

At this time, some elite Greater Rats began to voice their support, "So what if he's a cultivation cripple? We're not lacking in cultivation geniuses now. What we lack is a person who can keep our system running. All we need to do is just equip the new king with a few more bodyguards."

"That's right, if an invincible person were to rise in power, he might be able to gain face in foreign affairs, but would he be able to manage such a complex situation?" The supporting rats quickly began to ask, eliminating other candidates.

"Yeah, that'll be tough. Look at that so-called official successor over there. If you leave it to him, would he know how to read the daily supply and demand chart, regulate supply and demand, and ensure the Greater Rats' steady development?"

"I still think we should let a powerhouse come into power who at least can fight back against that Arctic Wolf. After all, we can't be asking this nobility to help us 'everyday right? We probably can't afford that." Someone said lowly.

After the great green insect appeared, it just spoke one sentence and started eating without stopping. No one knew when it would finish eating. It was a question that probably only the Heavens had the answer to.

The Square was immediately plunged into a huge debate, each with their own arguments.

Bai Shifu looked at Bai Shixin, who was still standing still, and could not resist asking telepathically, "Brother, you have a superb spiritual skill. You just used it yesterday to give the announcement to the entire city. It's just that the Greater Rats are ignorant and don't know how amazing it is. Why don't you demonstrate it again?"

"No," Bai Shixin already changed his mind. He softly said, "I have a new idea now. I'll be the new Greater Rat King with the background of a cultivator cripple."

"You want to leave it as your trump card?"

"You can say that. This spiritual skill I'm cultivating is too partial and is easily targeted. Only if I have an extremely strong physical body as aid would I be able to reach the realm of perfection. Unfortunately, I can reach this condition, but I don't have the opportunity to cultivate that book." Bai Shixin shook his head.

"I see, Brother, you really do have a plan for everything. With you as King, everything else will be a cinch." Bai Shifu watched the public opinion slowly change directions and began to humble himself and flatter Bai Shixin.
