Eve of the Snow Feather Hall's Emergence

Ling Yuxuan turned and returned to the Judgment Holy Temple, slowly pondering. Including the future Qian Renxue, there were already four people who had been reborn. Perhaps others might also be reborn into this time and space.

There would only be more and more reborn people. If anyone from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan had also returned, then Spirit Hall's plans could no longer be kept hidden. It seemed this continent was about to descend into chaos!

As he thought, Ling Yuxuan revealed a wicked smile.

"Hehehe, since I'm in the midst of chaos, then let this continent become even more chaotic!

This continent needs only one ruler. The Two Great Empires and the Three Upper Sects should disappear.

It seems my Snow Feather Hall should also make its appearance."

Although he was not good at managing a faction, wasn't there a ready-made candidate right in front of him?

As he was thinking, Future Xue walked in from outside.

She no longer suppressed her aura. Five hundred-thousand-year Spirit Bones had successfully pushed Future Xue from Rank 97 to the peak of Rank 99. To Future Xue, it was merely a recovery.

"Have you absorbed them all?"

Future Xue nodded. She had once become a god, after all. Absorbing a few Spirit Bones was hardly difficult.

"Alright. There's something I may need your help with."

"What is it? As long as I can help, I definitely will."

Future Xue asked curiously.

"I was thinking, if more people are reborn later on, this continent will fall completely into chaos. So, I plan to establish a new faction and draw out all these reborn people. Its public name will be the 'Snow Feather Hall,' while internally, it will be called the Judgment Hall. It will be the fourth hall after the Papal Palace, Douluo Hall, and Worship Hall—the Judgment Hall.

"The Snow Feather Hall needs a leader to face the public. Would you be willing?"

Future Xue: There was no helping it—he was offering far too much! She could never repay it!

"Then can I understand this as becoming a second Bibi Dong? The puppet kind?"

Ling Yuxuan stared into Future Xue's eyes and shook his head.

"No. The Bibi Dong from the time and space you belonged to could be said to be a puppet Old Man pushed into power. Old Man did not trust her, and she held no real authority.

"But you are different. I trust you, so I will hand real authority over to you as well. When I summoned those Titled Douluo earlier, you saw it, didn't you?"

Future Xue nodded, tacitly admitting it. She had indeed witnessed the scene of the Titled Douluo being summoned from within the bracelet.

"I'll have those Seniors obey your orders as well. In addition, I'll leave one Grade 9 Soul Engineer on Spirit Hall's side. The remaining two will follow you to establish the new faction."

"Um, I'd like to ask something. What kind of profession is a Soul Engineer? Even after I became a god, I never heard of such a profession."

Future Xue asked curiously.

"A Soul Engineer is an ancient profession. They are Soul Masters who use new weapons and can create Soul Tools. The Soul Tools they create can give food-type or support-type Soul Masters combat ability. Soul Engineers are divided into nine grades. For instance, to become a Grade 8 Soul Engineer, you must first become an eight-ring Soul Douluo. Grade 10 Soul Engineers, like Level 100 Soul Masters, are legendary existences. However, there are also some special individuals who can craft across ranks, much like how we Soul Masters can fight across a major rank."

"So, among everyone I summoned earlier, Old Yun and Old Feng had both reached the Quasi-God realm, ranking first and second in strength. Yet Old Kong, as a Grade 10 Soul Engineer with only Rank 94 Soul Power, could rank third in combat strength and likewise unleash a god's strike. If Old Kong's Soul Power rose to Rank 99, then even Old Yun and Old Feng might not be his match. That is the terrifying aspect of Soul Engineers.

"And the Hidden Weapons Tang San made, as you mentioned before, are like fireflies compared to the bright moon before Soul Tools. You could also put it this way: three Grade 9 Fixed Soul Cannon Shells could instantly turn Heaven Dou City into level ground. Could the Hidden Weapons Tang San made accomplish that?" (PS: Yeah, yeah, yeah! Even gods can't dodge the Zhuge Repeating Crossbow.)

As for establishing a faction, you should have more ideas than I do. I'd like to hear your suggestions.

"Regarding the establishment of a faction, the first things needed are resources and connections. As for resources, Spirit Hall naturally does not lack them. As for connections, if those Seniors appear on the continent at the same time, there will naturally be no shortage of people seeking to befriend them. For a man who keeps 'sharing the same breath' on his lips every day, if such a massive faction suddenly emerges and shows even slight hostility toward Spirit Hall, he will certainly spare no effort to win them over and pull them into his 'sharing the same breath' alliance. We can also use this opportunity to extort them, making them bleed heavily. That would solve the funding issue.

"Then there is the location for the Snow Feather Hall. Since it must publicly appear hostile toward Spirit Hall, and Spirit Hall is established at the border between the Two Great Empires, the Snow Feather Hall should likewise be built at the border between the Two Great Empires. To outsiders, the Snow Feather Hall would be challenging Spirit Hall's status. After all, one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers. If they wished to attack Spirit Hall in the future, the Snow Feather Hall's location would allow them to better execute their battle plans and form a three-sided encirclement around Spirit Hall.

"As for how this faction should emerge? Simple. Hold a Sect Re-election Conference. That would be the best opportunity for this faction to make its appearance.

"If the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect truly have people who were reborn, they will certainly know their sects will later be destroyed by Spirit Hall. They will desperately need a protector. With their strength, they cannot stop what is about to happen. Thus, the suddenly emerging Snow Feather Hall, which is also hostile to Spirit Hall, will become their only choice. Use the Snow Feather Hall to draw out those who have been reborn, then catch every faction hostile to Spirit Hall in one sweep!

"The trends of the world: what has long been united must divide, and what has long been divided must unite. This continent needs only one ruler—the Spirit Hall Empire!"

Ling Yuxuan applauded in praise. As expected of someone who had become a god. But why had the Future Xue before him been so foolish in the original timeline?

The villain's halo, forcibly lowering intelligence?

"Not bad, not bad. We'll do as you said. You will be the Hall Master of the Snow Feather Hall. But you'll need to put your old trade to use again—'disguise.' If you go out looking as you do now, those reborn people will recognize your identity at a glance. Among the Spirit Bones I gave you earlier, one has the same skill as the head Spirit Bone from your former Angel Set: 'disguise.' It should be familiar territory for you."

Future Xue nodded. Disguise was something she was exceedingly practiced at. It was right in her field.

"Alright, I'll go discuss the Sect Re-election Conference with Ji'er."
