Title: Jun Yi!

Xiao Family Plaza.

Lin Yu released every member of the Desert Iron Mercenary Group from the Kamui Space.

Everyone was immensely excited about this relocation. Never before had so many people traveled thousands of miles without even taking a single step!

"Father, Li'er and I have come back to see you!" The moment he emerged from the Kamui Space, Xiao Ding went before Xiao Zhan.

"Hmph! So you still remembered to come back! If it weren't for Xiao Yu, I'm afraid you'd have forgotten this old man long ago!" Xiao Zhan turned his head aside and spoke somewhat angrily. Yet anyone could see how happy he was at that moment.

"Hehe..." Xiao Ding and Xiao Zhan scratched their heads awkwardly and smiled without saying anything. They knew this was their father's concern for them, as well as his dissatisfaction at their having been away from home for so long without returning.

For a faction, the first thing it needed was a place to settle down.

So Lin Yu directly flattened an entire hilltop. The area was roughly one-quarter the size of Wutan City, to be used as the foundation for constructing a palace.

Then, relying on the absolute control granted by the system, Lin Yu waved his hand, and a towering hall rose into the clouds. Above its entrance hung a golden plaque inscribed with three flamboyant characters: "God Extermination Hall." It was impossibly eye-catching.

Below the great hall lay an enormous plaza, easily capable of accommodating hundreds of thousands of people!

Around the hall, nine magnificent pavilions of different styles rose as well, surrounding the central hall. Beyond them stood smaller buildings.

The entire complex revolved around the central "God Extermination Hall." Beneath the brilliant blue sky, that cloud-piercing hall appeared especially resplendent.

Three days later, nearly everyone in Wutan City had gathered before the God Extermination Hall's plaza!

Lin Yu hovered in the air before the God Extermination Hall, looking down at the crowd in the plaza.

Today, he still wore a black, narrow-sleeved python robe. His clothes and hair drifted gracefully, unbound and untied, fluttering lightly around his figure suspended in midair, as though a god had descended into the world.

His smooth, fair face carried a trace of handsomeness amid its delicate features, with gentleness hidden beneath his cool and stern bearing. The sight drew endless shrieks from the young girls in the crowd.

Xiao Xun'er, Xiao Yi Xian, and Qing Lin, standing nearby, were all entranced by Lin Yu's appearance.

"Is he the Hall Master of this God Extermination Hall? He's so young!"

"He's truly incredible! He founded a sect at such a young age!"

"Yeah! He can even stand in midair. That's an ability only Dou Zongs possess!"

"I heard he might even be a Dou Zun!"

Listening to the whispers from the crowd, Lin Yu merely smiled faintly and made no further move.

Seeing that the time was about right, Lin Yu raised one hand. The instant the crowd saw him move, they immediately fell still. In a moment, the entire plaza fell silent as everyone quietly awaited his next action.

"Today, God Extermination Hall is founded here. I, Lin Yu, shall be the first Hall Master of God Extermination Hall. My title: Jun Yi!" Ruling the World, Pure Eternity!

"Hereby, this Hall Master announces the laws. Listen carefully!"

Those who use strength to bully the weak shall be exterminated!

Those who commit evil and break the law shall be exterminated!

Those who rebel against their superiors and cause disorder shall be exterminated!

Those who are disloyal and unfilial shall be exterminated!

Those who are inhumane and unjust shall be exterminated!

The proclamation of laws lasted for half a shichen before it was finally completed.

"From this day onward, these laws shall be proclaimed to the world and must be obeyed! God Extermination Hall shall be the enforcers of the law, overseeing all living beings!"

Everyone in the plaza listened with rapt attention. Do not think these laws merely restricted the people; upon careful thought, every one of them represented what people had always wanted to do but did not dare to do, while better restraining those utterly heartless madmen.

This was something countless predecessors had wished to accomplish, yet no one had dared to implement it. Not even an empire would dare do such a thing! Lin Yu could be called the first person in all of history!

"God Extermination Hall shall have nine pavilions beneath it! I now appoint Venerable Yao, Yao Chen, as the Pavilion Master of Danyang Pavilion!"

"Yao Chen accepts the order!"

"I appoint the Ice Emperor, Hai Bodong, as the Pavilion Master of Xuanbing Pavilion!"

"Hai Bodong accepts the order!"

"I appoint Xiao Yi Xian as the Pavilion Master of Wandu Pavilion!"

Xiao Yi Xian: (д)!!! R-Really?

"I appoint Xiao Yan as the Pavilion Master of Chiyan Pavilion!"

Xiao Yan: !!!∑(°Д°ノ)ノ Me too?

"The other pavilions shall be discussed later!"

"From this day onward, God Extermination Hall shall establish another office, the Law Department, to be governed by Xiao Ding! This office shall seek welfare for the people and redress their grievances! Anyone who suffers injustice may report it here! The Law Department of God Extermination Hall shall resolve it!"

"Furthermore, as members of God Extermination Hall, you must enforce the law impartially. You may not use your authority for personal gain, engage in corruption and pervert the law, or knowingly break the law! Once discovered, you shall be severely punished without mercy!" Lin Yu's words rang out forcefully, carrying something of an emperor's bearing.

"All right, everyone. All matters have been settled. Today is the founding day of God Extermination Hall. Thank you all for coming. A banquet has been prepared for your enjoyment. Let it begin!"

The crowd in the plaza exchanged glances, then hurriedly bowed. "Many thanks to Hall Master Jun Yi for your generous hospitality!"

The moment Lin Yu finished speaking, he vanished from everyone's sight.

He arrived where Xiao Xun'er and the others were. "I'm exhausted! Keeping up that act was way too hard!" Lin Yu's mouth was dry, and he grabbed some water from nearby and gulped it down.

"But I thought Brother Lin Yu looked so cool just now!" Xiao Xun'er stared at Lin Yu with sparkling eyes.

"Yeah, yeah! I thought Master looked really cool too!" Qing Lin chimed in from the side.

Lin Yu scratched his head and chuckled. "Really? But I'm honestly not suited for giving speeches onstage. You know that, Xun'er."

"Pfft, hahaha!" It would have been fine if he had not mentioned it, but the moment he did, Xiao Xun'er remembered Lin Yu's awkward appearance at the coming-of-age ceremony.

Lin Yu's face immediately darkened. He lightly tapped Xiao Xun'er on the forehead. "No laughing!"

Xiao Xun'er hurriedly covered her mouth, but she still could not stop herself from laughing.

Lin Yu: (ー_ー)!!

At that moment, Xiao Yi Xian walked up to Lin Yu. "Why did you arrange a position for me? I'm only a mere Dou Shi..."

Xiao Xun'er was curious as well. She was about to reach the Dou Huang realm herself, so why had Lin Yu not given her a position?

Lin Yu smiled at Xiao Yi Xian. "Don't belittle yourself. Have you forgotten that you possess the Calamity Poison Body? You are innately close to the Poison Dao, and your future is limitless!"

Xiao Yi Xian was relieved. If she could help him, then this was actually quite good.

Lin Yu saw through Xiao Xun'er's thoughts. He scraped her nose with a finger and said with a smile, "As for you, of course you're the mistress of God Extermination Hall! You don't need to worry about any of its affairs. Just focus on being as beautiful as a flower!"

After hearing Lin Yu's words, Xiao Xun'er's little face reddened. Her hand wrapped around Lin Yu's arm tightened slightly, and she said nothing more.

"Oh, right, Xiao Yi Xian, I have something for you." Lin Yu handed Xiao Yi Xian a glittering golden card.

"What is this?" Xiao Yi Xian had never seen anything like it and looked puzzled.

"A Dou Huang Experience Card!" Xiao Xun'er cried out. She recognized it at once; Xiao Yan had drawn one before during a lottery.

"That's right! After using it, you'll immediately gain the strength of a peak Dou Huang. It's only temporary, but the effect lasts for three days! Consider it your trump card for now," Lin Yu explained.

"Something this magical?" Xiao Yi Xian played with the card in her hand, unable to put it down. She was clearly delighted.

This had been included in the beginner's gift pack Lin Yu received when he had first arrived in Battle Through the Heavens. He had stayed in Wutan City so long that his realm had surpassed the Experience Card's limit, so he had never used it. Giving it away now was making full use of it.

At that moment, a timid voice sounded. "M-Master, can you give me one too?" Qing Lin tugged at Lin Yu's clothes and spoke softly.

A Dou Huang! And one who could even form wings from Dou Qi! When they had returned to Wutan City earlier, she had flown once. She had been a little scared at first, but after getting used to it, Qing Lin had fallen in love with the feeling.

Lin Yu: (ー_ー)!! So you just wanted to fly?

Lin Yu smiled and rubbed Qing Lin's head. "I gave one to your Sister Xiao Yi Xian because it can protect her. You have your master protecting you, so you don't need that."

"Oh~"

Afterward, Lin Yu gave his other two Experience Cards to Xiao Ding and Xiao Yan.

There had been some changes to the earlier chapters. For example, Ordinary Lottery draws could now accumulate by one each day, and one hundred Ordinary Lottery draws could be exchanged for one Advanced Lottery draw.

When guests used the Ordinary Lottery, the host only received Gold Coins.
