The Azure Dragon's figure disappeared into the ripples of the spatial passage, and tranquility returned to the reception area.

Lin Wan remained standing outside the door, her posture upright, like an ice sculpture that never tires.

Su Bai did not turn around.

"Do you know what I mean by 'rat'?"

"I know." Lin Wan's voice was cold and devoid of any emotion. "The master is about to embark on a long journey. There must be some restless individuals within the base."

"Firstly, the loyalty of those rogue cultivators who were forcibly recruited is questionable."

"Secondly, there are spies planted by the authorities, whose spying on the base has never stopped."

"Thirdly, and most importantly, as the base displays more and more miracles, can our core members still maintain their original aspirations?"

Her analysis was precise and ruthless, hitting the nail on the head.

Su Bai finally turned around and looked at the woman who had been with him for two lifetimes.

"Well analyzed."

He walked slowly to Lin Wan.

"But you're only half right."

Lin Wan's eyelashes fluttered slightly, but she remained silent, waiting for him to continue.

"The rats I'm talking about aren't just these."

Su Bai's voice was very soft.

"And those sects that have been beaten and are afraid to attack me, they will definitely use every means to corrupt and win over my people."

"Perhaps even some beings from beyond this realm have already noticed this place."

"The Primordial Base I want is not a simple shelter, but the spark of a completely new and extraordinary civilization."

"This spark must not have any problems while I'm away."

"Lin Wan".

Su Bai called her name.

"Sir, I'm here."

"From this moment forward, I grant you the highest authority over the Primordial Base."

"While I'm gone, you are me."

"Every decision you make is the same as my decision."

For the first time, Lin Wan's body showed a slight stiffness.

She knew the weight of this authorization.

This means that the lives of tens of thousands of people within the base will depend on her decision.

"Sir, this power..."

"You can handle it," Su Bai interrupted her.

He knew that a single sentence was not enough for Lin Wan to truly take control of the situation.

Those unruly awakened ones, those core members with their own agendas, obeyed Su Bai, not Lin Wan.

"come over."

Su Bai waved to the black and white portal leading to the Primordial Cave Heaven.

Lin Wan followed without hesitation.

The two stepped inside and entered that newly born world once again.

Su Bai led her directly to the ancient tea tree that had attained enlightenment.

"What do you think is the core of this world?" Su Bai asked.

"It is your will, sir," Lin Wan replied without hesitation.

"That's right."

Su Bai extended his right hand, and a ball of primordial light, composed of black and white energies and containing immense world power, slowly condensed in his palm.

Within that ball of light, it seemed as if the sun and moon were rising and falling, and mountains and rivers were evolving.

"Verbal authorization is just empty talk."

"Today, I give you real power."

Su Bai looked at Lin Wan with an unprecedentedly solemn expression.

"Relax your mind and do not resist."

A sudden, intense emotion finally surfaced in Lin Wan's usually cold and aloof eyes.

She understood what Su Bai was going to do.

That was giving her a portion of control over the world!

This is no longer about trust.

This is a blessing and coronation performed by the gods for their agents!

Without the slightest hesitation, she closed her eyes and completely released her soul defenses.

Su-Bai flicked his finger.

That primordial essence of the world transformed into a stream of light and instantly entered Lin Wan's brow.

boom!

Lin Wan's body swayed violently.

She felt her consciousness being elevated infinitely at that moment.

She "saw" the mountains and rivers, every blade of grass and every tree in this world.

She could feel every gust of wind moving across the plain.

She could hear the breathing of the water spirits deep in the ocean.

She can even manipulate a trace of the laws of nature in this world!

A vast and powerful aura, far exceeding her own cultivation level, flashed past her body.

When she opened her eyes again, there was something indescribable in those cold eyes.

That was the majesty of the one in control.

"From this day forward, you will be the 'Earth Mother' of this world."

Su Bai's voice, like a divine decree, echoed throughout this world.

"You will be in charge of all core members' access to and from the cave."

"The base will establish a merit system, and all resource exchanges will be subject to your approval."

"The monthly tea leaves produced by the Wudao Ancient Tea Tree are under your management."

"Your will, within this realm, is second only to mine."

Lin Wan slowly knelt down on one knee.

This time, it wasn't a subordinate's courtesy to a superior.

Rather, it is a believer's most devout worship of his faith.

"Lin Wan, I will obey your decree."

For the first time, her voice trembled with an uncontrollable tremor.

It wasn't fear, it was excitement, it was a sense of belonging that made my life worthwhile.

Su Bai helped her up.

Finally, remember one thing.

He looked into Lin Wan's eyes, his voice turning cold.

"Before I return, anyone who questions your orders, anyone who tries to challenge your authority, anyone you've labeled a 'rat'..."

"You don't need to report to me."

"You can directly utilize the power of the cave heaven."

"Erase them completely, along with their souls."

Lin Wan's delicate body trembled.

She looked up and met Su Bai's gaze.

A beautiful smile, yet one brimming with endless murderous intent, slowly bloomed on that icy face.

"Don't worry, sir."

"When you return, you will find a perfectly clean home."

Su Bai nodded.

He took one last look at the world he had created with his own hands, and then there was no more lingering attachment.

What needed to be done has been done.

He turned around, his figure gradually fading until he finally disappeared completely from this world.

Lin Wan stood alone under the ancient tea tree, basking in the light.

She slowly raised her hand, feeling the new authority in her palm that could mobilize the power of heaven and earth.

"Ghost, relay my orders."

Her voice, transmitted through the laws of the grotto-heaven, resounded directly to the outside world.

"Summon all core members. Meet in the council hall in one hour."

"New rules should be established."
