It is unknown what Derek's new status will mean until we see it on screen.

You are right. That scene in the distillery is not clear.

Here is what we know -


 * After the death of his Beta, Ennis wanted to secure the other packs support (or at least their approval) to move against the Argents.


 * The Argents treated all werewolves the same, regardless of pack. This made the death of Ennis' Beta everybody's problem.


 * Beacon Hills was a regular meeting place for packs due to Talia's status
