Cleaning Up Spirit Hall's Internal Problems Begins; Spirit Hall Members Are Dispatched to Kill Evil Soul Masters!
After all the last few details were explained to them, Xue Ye, Ning Fengzhi, and the others left.
Only Qian Xunling, Qian Xunji, and other high-ranking members of the Spirit Hall remained in the Pope's Hall.
At this moment, Qian Xunling said, "The situation outside the Spirit Hall is almost resolved now. The only remaining question is how to deal with the Star Luo Empire and Tang Chen."
"Now, let's move on to the internal issues of our Spirit Hall."
"Internal issues, Xunling, what do you mean by that?" Qian Xunji asked, puzzled, but seemed to be deep in thought.
Qian Xunling looked at all the high-ranking members in the Pope's Hall and continued, "Over the years, I have experienced countless things during my training outside. Just the actions of the Spirit Hall at the lower levels that I have witnessed are enough for me to give a proper critique."
Upon hearing these words, the high-ranking members of the Spirit Hall became solemn. They truly had not expected things to be so dire under these external circumstances.
The fact that Qian Xunling, this spoiled brat, wanted to reorganize the internal staff was something they hadn't expected at all.
It's rare for any Pope to do something like this.
Seeing their increasingly serious expressions, Qian Xunling sneered, certain that none of them were innocent.
However, Qian Xunling asked, "Where is Salas from Heaven Dou City?"
"Here, sir, I'm here." Salas, who had been hiding at the very back of the important officials and in the corner, raised his hand in response, but his face was filled with a bitter smile as he walked out, his legs trembling.
Everyone looked at him, while Qian Xunling chuckled and asked with interest, "Salas, you should have seen me at the Xue Ye Ceremony and even spoken to me, right?"
Salas seemed to be lying, but the more he thought about it, the more frightened he became. So he thrashed to the ground and begged for mercy, "My lord, I was confused at the time, sob sob, I really didn't mean to threaten you."
Having witnessed the battle between Qian Daoliu and Tang Chen in Heaven Dou City and learned that Qian Xunling was Qian Daoliu's second son, Salas has lived in constant fear all these years.
Now that he's kneeling like this, he feels more at ease.
The others didn't know what Salas had done, but they all held their breath, knowing Salas was in deep trouble.
Few of them have clean hands; they've all committed some kind of offense.
Qian Xunling said, "After I left Heaven Dou City, you must have felt scared, so you started working diligently all these years, no longer using your status as Platinum Bishop to oppress people. You've done a better job than many others."
"Waaah, my lord, I promise I will turn over a new leaf and never repeat my mistakes. Please forgive me this time." Salas wept, his head bowed.
However, Qian Xunling said, "That's a nice thought, but the punishment you deserve still has to come. From today onwards, your Platinum Bishop status is revoked, and you are dispatched to a Spirit Hall Main Hall in the Far North to start over as the Spirit Hall Main Hall Master."
Upon hearing this punishment, Salas's expression froze. The Far North was a harsh and dangerous place, devoid of any reward. However, he quickly replied, "Thank you for your forgiveness, sir."
As long as he could keep his life, Salas was genuinely afraid that Qian Xunling would just kill him.
"Hmm." Qian Xunling ignored him and told him to stand back in the crowd. Qian Xunling's expression was still not good, and she continued, "I know that it's not just Salas, none of you guys are conscientious. But from now on, if anyone tries to slack off under my nose, don't blame me for being ruthless."
"Understood, Young Master Xunling." Someone was the first to pledge their loyalty, and the others followed suit.
Qian Xunling continued, "Also, there's a Soul Master guard captain at the Spirit Hall Branch in Grass and Wood City. He's a good person, so I've made an exception and promoted him to the position of Spirit Hall Branch. You're in charge of handling the matters there."
"This..." Everyone hesitated for a moment, but then someone replied directly, "Yes!"
Then the others nodded in agreement, not daring to refuse.
Qian Xunji stared at Qian Xunling, puzzled, but this was not a big deal; it was just a Spirit Hall Branch Master.
At this moment, Qian Xunling continued, "In the short term, it's impossible for the Star Luo Empire and Tang Chen to launch a full-scale attack. However, before that, we need to complete the necessary preparations."
"In the past, all the services provided by our Spirit Hall were for nobles or members of the Spirit Hall." Qian Xunling Qian Xunling her travels and found the practice of treating commoners particularly distasteful. Therefore, she declared directly, "I hereby declare that from this day forward, all Spirit Hall medical or dispatch services throughout the continent may be offered to commoners."
"What!?" Qian Xunji and Ling Yuan beside him were the first to be surprised. Qian Xunji said directly, "Xunling, are you kidding me? The resources in the Spirit Hall are for Soul Master, how can they be used for ordinary people?"
"A joke? I'm too lazy to joke with you." Qian Xunling said indifferently, then continued, "However, this isn't free for ordinary people. If you want to receive services from our Spirit Hall, you have to pay the corresponding amount."
"Xunling, this is detrimental to our ability to recruit talent into the Spirit Hall from the mainland," Qian Xunji said gravely. He added, "Our Spirit Hall relies on such methods to attract other Soul Master to join us. Without this attraction, more Soul Master will choose to become independent cultivators, which will greatly reduce the Spirit Hall's pool of talent."
"What a joke! How many of the genius Soul Master attracted by coercion and bribery truly have their hearts set on joining our Spirit Hall?" Qian Xunling retorted directly. "What we need is the entire continent's recognition and sense of belonging to our Spirit Hall Spirit Hall. Otherwise, those who join us are nothing but a bunch of bloodsucking maggots."
"Don't you agree?" Qian Xunling sneered, looking at the group of the Spirit Hall members. They all nodded, but dared not utter a single word.
Qian Xunji was certainly aware of these guys' character, but the Spirit Hall had been operating this way for so many years since its founding.
Qian Xunling waved her hand and said, "I'm too lazy to explain anymore. I've got this matter settled."
"I am the Pope, Xunling," Qian Xunji retorted. Qian Xunling replied, "Then how about it? Do you think Father listens to me or you?"
"You..." Qian Xunji gritted her teeth and snorted coldly, "I will talk to my father. He will definitely not agree with your approach. Our Spirit Hall has always operated this way, and it will continue to do so in the future."
"Then go ahead, I'll be watching." Qian Xunling chuckled, not continuing the discussion.
The Spirit Hall was destroyed not only because it encountered Tang San, who was overpowered, and Bibi Dong, who went mad, but also because it was corrupt from top to bottom.
It was only because Qian Daoliu was too powerful that the Worship Hall was united and could keep the group of petty villains in check; otherwise, it would have exploded long ago.
In this spacetime where she exists, Qian Xunling will not allow these villains to exist anymore. She will kill or imprison them without any mercy.
After finishing this, Qian Xunling looked at everyone again and asked, "What are your opinions?"
"We... we will follow your arrangements, sir. We will do whatever you say." The crowd replied, which was exactly what Qian Xunling expected. Then Qian Xunling continued, "Since that's the case, then I'll mention something else."
"The Star Luo Empire has already begun to suppress the deacons of our Spirit Hall, but if we attack them first, it will only give them more room to criticize us."
"Therefore, I now order all members of the Spirit Hall within the Star Luo Empire to immediately proceed to Longxing City, find a group of Evil Soul Master called Blood Soul Village, and wipe them all out, leaving no one alive," Qian Xunling said.
This was something Qian Xunling had completely forgotten, but she remembered it only after the Star Luo Empire turned against her.
