Douluo Continent: The Peerless Tang Sect, Angels and Rakshasa Return

Chapter 240—Can't I, a saintess, even have a few maids?

Soon, after a long silence, the first Holy Servant stood up, high-fived Qian Lingyun, and swore an oath, announcing that he had joined the Holy Soul Hall.

Then came the second, the third… and so on…

Looking at the eleven people in front of her, Qian Lingyun nodded with satisfaction.

"Purify, the filth in your soul."

A circle of pure white light emanated from the top of Qian Lingyun's head.

Her boundless sea of ​​spirit instantly surged with towering waves, and her immense spiritual power, drawn forth by the incantation, transformed into the purest purifying force in the world.

Wherever that pure white halo passed, souls and vengeful spirits alike were affected.

The blood-red light on their bodies disappeared first, and they, who had been wandering around, froze in mid-air, motionless.

A white light! It spread to every corner of the yard before quietly stopping.

Go and say goodbye to your loved ones! Their impurities have been purified!

The Holy Servants of the Holy Spirit Cult—no, the Holy Servants of the Holy Soul Temple—awakened as if from a dream, and embraced their loved ones, weeping bitterly.

After a moment's thought, Qian Lingyun quietly left the courtyard. A few minutes later, he quietly returned and stood in the center of the courtyard, staring blankly at the setting sun.

Bai Yuan suddenly appeared from somewhere and squatted down next to Qian Lingyun, asking curiously, "Holy Maiden, if some of them had refused to pledge allegiance to you just now, would you still have released the souls of their loved ones?"

"Yes," Qian Lingyun nodded, and under Bai Yuan's surprised gaze, she added, "Because I'm too lazy to pick from a bunch of souls, that's too tiring!"

"Pfft, I knew it!" Bai Yuan chuckled, unable to resist putting her arm around Qian Lingyun's shoulder.

"So, was this Holy Soul Hall you just mentioned something you came up with on the spur of the moment, or was it premeditated?"

"It was premeditated!" Qian Lingyun replied without hesitation.

"Does an evil spirit necessarily make someone an evil spirit master? I don't believe it! I hope that one day, spirit masters with evil spirits can stand openly on the street and communicate with ordinary spirit masters without prejudice!"

Upon hearing this, Bai Yuan suddenly realized and said:

"So, during your previous meeting, you planned to create a new faction as a front, just to recruit us, the worshippers, and these still 'clean' holy servants, right?"

"Yes, do you want to join?" Qian Lingyun asked with a smile.

"Me? It depends on my mood," Bai Yuan said mischievously, smoothing her messy hair.

"However... if you have enough poisonous herbs, I'll bring my entire fortune to you!"

"Are you very rich?" Qian Lingyun asked, somewhat surprised.

"One-third of all the elixir formulas in the entire Sun Moon Empire are the result of my research. Otherwise, where do you think I get the money to buy so many poisonous herbs and corpses every month?"

"Why do you think I get to live alone in a compound that's one-eighth the size of the Soul Guidance Department? That's a privilege I get by giving Zhongli Wu two months' salary every year!"

Seemingly feeling looked down upon, Bai Yuan, the temple attendant, also showed Qian Lingyun her monthly expenses and income.

Shocking! A wealthy woman who spends millions every month is actually a homebody with mild social anxiety and long, straight black hair who dissects corpses?

At first glance, Qian Lingyun suddenly realized that there were quite a few wealthy women around her, and each of them was extraordinary.

Ye Xishui is the Supreme Leader of the Cult, and her wealth is unfathomable.

Feng Ling is the vice leader, and she gave her 100 million yuan on their first meeting.

Mei Douluo is a level nine Soul Master, and selling a few Soul Tools from time to time is enough for her to earn and spend as she pleases.

The Fourth Imperial Envoy is a gourmet from a noble family. Having worked in the imperial kitchen, she seems to be quite wealthy, as evidenced by the extraordinary furniture in her bunker.

Shangguan Wei'er, one of the Thirteen Offerings, is the head of the Ordinary Alliance and controls the entire Mingdu's sex industry and catering and entertainment.

Bai Yuan, one of the Twelve Offering Masters, is a renowned pharmacologist in the Sun Moon Empire, earning millions a month…

Even my old classmate Ning Tian is a young sect master.

It's no exaggeration to say that Qian Lingyun, along with the people mentioned above, is incredibly wealthy.

Soon, the first servant of the saint emerged from the room, her hood removed, her eyes red and swollen from crying.

Then came the rest of the group, each of them choking back tears as they walked out of the room.

"Please accept my condolences. The souls of the departed have been released from suffering; they have finally found their home."

Upon hearing this, the holy servants wept even louder.

But after being comforted by Qian Lingyun, she quickly stopped crying.

Facing Qian Lingyun, they knelt down simultaneously, saying, "We have no way to repay your kindness in giving us a second chance. We are willing to follow you for life and serve you with our souls."

"Alright, get up!"

Qian Lingyun's lips twitched, and she looked at Shangguan Weier, who was sitting on the porch, for help: "Xiao Wei, where's the person I asked you to call?!"

Shangguan Wei'er wasn't worried about her posture potentially revealing too much. She simply waved her hand knowingly and said, "The ordinary alliance leaders I arranged have arrived and are waiting across the street. The shop has also been arranged, and we're just waiting for them to start work."

Hearing Shangguan Weier's words, which sounded like a refreshing afternoon rain, Qian Lingyun breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Did you hear that? Those who aren't from the Soul Master Academy will go to the Ordinary Alliance to work for now. Those who have studies to pursue will go back and continue their education! You guys..."

"Can the one with the highest cultivation level maintain a one-way communication with me?

"Can!"

The female Soul Master who spoke wasn't particularly beautiful, but her wheat-colored skin gave her a healthy appearance. She was tall and slender, easily over 1.8 meters tall.

"What's your name again?" Qian Lingyun asked.

"My name is Nana!" Nana replied softly.

"Oh, Nana, I'm going to many places this time. As you can see, I'm surrounded by servants; I can't let them take care of me, so..."

"I do," Nana said, standing up. Her face was serene and composed.

Qian Lingyun was slightly taken aback, then chuckled dryly, "I haven't even said anything yet, and you're already willing?"

"Yes," Nana nodded quickly, her face beaming with excitement.

"I can stay by your side and take care of your daily needs and offerings!"

"Alright then!" Qian Lingyun snorted lightly, pointed to another Soul Master with higher cultivation, and instructed, "From now on, they'll be your responsibility!"

"Yes."

After watching the servants leave the courtyard, Qian Lingyun and Shangguan Weier knocked on the door of the branch elder.

Under the anxious and fearful gaze of the branch elder, Qian Lingyun informed him that she had sent her holy servant to work under Shangguan Weier.

He also repeatedly reminded the branch elders that from now on, these holy servants would be employees of the Thirteen Offerings, and they should not contact them unless necessary!

Seeing that the rice had already been cooked, the branch manager's lips twitched, and he had no choice but to nod.

As for complaining to Zhongli Wu, he didn't have the guts. After all, saying that would only give Zhongli Wu the impression that he was careless and incompetent.

Incidentally, they will also incur the wrath of the saintess and the worshippers.

He wasn't stupid enough to do something that would please neither side...

Emerging from the underground passage, Qian Lingyun removed a storage soul tool bracelet and handed it to Shangguan Weier:

"Xiao Wei, go and buy me a shop in a good location in every city near the marked points on the map! Also, send someone capable from your Ordinary Alliance to oversee the work. Our new employees will be here soon!"

"Okay! Contact me using the communication soul tool if anything happens! I'll take a look!" Shangguan Wei'er smiled and took the bracelet, quickly disappearing from Qian Lingyun's sight.
