Internationally, as the nine noble families of the Xia Yu Nation gradually began to control various industries in Red Star under the leadership of the Su Family, and the Snow Dragon Federation seemed to passively allow this, other countries finally realized that the relationship between Xia Yu Nation, led by Su Alkaid, and the Snow Dragon Federation was not as they had previously speculated—a primary and secondary relation.
Between them...
They were actually genuine, equal allies.
Even though the Snow Dragon Federation could have swallowed up the entire Red Star and completed the unification of the whole world, they did not do so. Instead, they allowed Xia Yu Nation, led by Su Alkaid, to rapidly grow stronger, which led others to imagine that the term "equal allies" might not sufficiently describe their relationship.
As time passed and the matter fermented, the news that Su Alkaid was suspected to be a Celestial spread globally, causing sensational reactions.
Celestial.
