Douluo Continent: Peerless Angel Qian Renxue.

Chapter 138 The Initial Plans of the Spirit Hall

Spider-type martial souls are, in a sense, not recognized by the world today.

She heard that thousands of years ago, when the Heaven Dou Empire on the continent split, someone used the name of the Spirit Hall, and the organizer had a spider-like spirit.

From that time on, it seemed that spider-type martial souls were completely blacklisted, and almost all soul masters with spider-type martial souls were labeled as evil soul masters and began to be hunted down.

However, this situation cannot completely eliminate the emergence of all spider-type martial souls. On the one hand, they are impossible to kill them all, and on the other hand, fewer and fewer people on the continent are awakening martial souls, so some spider-type martial souls will be hidden away and passed down.

Then, when Ye Xishui told her about her background, she also mentioned a worshipper named Lin Xi, who seemed to have the ability to manipulate spider silk.

Lin Xi? Lin Mengtong?

"...?" Qian Renxue looked at Lin Mengtong in surprise, but did not say anything.

"She is a descendant of Lin Xi, the worshipper." Ye Xishui's voice came through. "It's very strange, because the Grand Elder once told me through telepathy that she herself is Lin Xi, and more than ten years ago, this girl found me herself and explained the situation."

"?" Qian Renxue asked in the mental signal.

"I did detect a similar aura to Lin Xi, or rather, the Grand Elder, in her, which is why I first took her in as a core disciple, and took this opportunity to let her come and make contact with you." Ye Xishui ended the mental communication.

The entire exchange took less than two seconds.

"You sensed it correctly, my second martial soul is indeed of the spider type. Welcome to the team!" Qian Renxue made up her mind that no matter what, this was an opportunity to get closer to the Grand Elder.

Lin Mengtong seemed a little embarrassed. She stood up and cupped her hands in greeting to Qian Renxue: "Mengtong is twenty-one years old this year, a six-ring Soul Emperor, nothing to brag about."

"How could that be? How could that be?" Qian Renxue gave a standard smile.

She noticed that this girl had the same red eyes as the little devil. The slight difference was that while the little devil Qian Renxue's eyes were blood red, Lin Mengtong's eyes resembled a brilliant red flower. That flower was called Lycoris radiata.

After giving a brief self-introduction, Lin Mengtong returned to her seat.

Ye Xishui smiled and said, "Actually, as I said before, the Holy Spirit Sect originally planned to emerge within ten years, under the name of the Holy Spirit Cult. Now, having Xiaoxue make a comeback under the name of the Spirit Hall is not a bad choice."

Long Xiaoyao shrugged: "I'm saying, everyone knows the Spirit Hall was a major villain from ten thousand years ago. To just openly and aggressively appear like this, isn't that a bit ill-considered?"

This is indeed a problem.

Qian Renxue thought for a moment and said, "There is absolutely no need for us to show up immediately. Public opinion on the mainland is not friendly right now, even in the Sun Moon Empire."

"What are you planning to do?" Ye Xishui asked with interest.

"How much control does the Sun Moon Empire have over the sects?" Qian Renxue asked.

"Basically, we've left them to their own devices." Ye Xishui was well aware of this situation. "From what I understand, there are dozens of sects, large and small, openly operating within the Sun Moon Empire, but since they pose no threat to the Mingde Hall, the empire has ignored them."

This was within Qian Renxue's expectations. After all, it was a nation focused on soul guidance, and its sects probably focused on soul guidance research, so they certainly didn't care much about cultivating martial souls and soul masters.

She took out a map from her soul tool and looked at it briefly.

"Let's go here." She pointed to a city located in the northern part of the Sun Moon Empire. "Jingyang City?" Xue Di looked at it; this city was right next to the Jingyang Mountains, which they had visited a few days ago.

"You intend to locate the Spirit Hall here?"

"It would be more accurate to call it a forward station," Qian Renxue explained. "Jingyang City can be considered a forward station for entering the mountains. There is a lot of traffic, and most of them are merchants. The economy is relatively developed in the northern part of the empire."

"And I think the true location of the sect will be in the Jingyang Mountains," she said with a mysterious smile.

"This is a good location!" Xue Di was also very happy because the Jingyang Mountains are located at a high altitude, and some of the peaks are covered with snow all year round.

"Miss, did you also notice the spider-like shape of this mountain range?" Shen Yuanyi also noticed the interesting point.

On the map, the crooked contour lines do indeed outline the shape of a spider, with eight branching mountain ranges extending to both sides.

This excited the little devil, so he told the little angel from the beginning that he wanted to locate the Spirit Hall here.

"Hehe, that's true." Qian Renxue chuckled. "There's another point. I remember that the Jingyang Mountains are a state-owned area, and you need a pass or something like a travel permit to enter."

"So, here, we can have a layer of artificial protection. Xu Tianran won't refuse my request; he'd probably be eager to help me this time." Qian Renxue sneered.

"So, what do you plan to do about the disciples' problems?" Long Xiaoyao joined the conversation.

As a Limit Douluo himself, he didn't want to be just a bystander in this meeting, so he suggested, "How about we let some of the followers join in?"

"No need." Ye Xishui directly rejected the suggestion. "We also have a branch altar in Jingyang City. Xiaoxue mentioned a plan before of giving away martial souls for free. Let the branch altar help her with this plan, and then we can absorb some disciples during the awakening."

Qian Renxue nodded gently: "I do have such a plan, teacher, you guessed right."

Some things are unspoken but understood.

Qian Renxue was actually... hesitant to directly use some of the Holy Spirit Cult's followers. This was unavoidable, but fortunately, Ye Xishui could see her worries.

Long Xiaoyao curled his lip: "Forget it, I'm just a rough guy, I don't know anything about building up forces, you guys handle it."

"The address is settled, but what are your plans for the internal structure?" Shen Yuanyi asked.

"The Spirit Hall has just been rebuilt, and its members are probably only a few of those present here." Qian Renxue pressed her temples. "Senior Wuyun and Senior Bone Dragon are both Title Douluo. I plan to make it similar to the previous Spirit Hall. In fact, our Holy Spirit Cult is the same."

"You mean the elders and the honorees?" Wuyun asked.

"That's right, but unlike our sect, the title of 'Enshriner' is held by internal Title Douluo, while the title of 'Elder' is held by some externally hired Title Douluo." Qian Renxue explained the difference between Elder and Enshriner in the Spirit Hall of her previous life.

"So, seniors, do you intend to assume the title of elder or the title of enshrined?" Qian Renxue stared at the two titled Douluo.
