Chapter 180 Chapter 184~186 Soul Master Guild Headquarters
After hearing Tang Chen's words, Tang Wei and others felt relieved.
Tang Chen then said, "However, you need to be more restrained in your actions from now on, and don't provoke the Spirit Master Guild and the Spirit Hall. Not to mention the Spirit Hall for now, as long as there is no real conflict, Qian Daoliu will not dare to embarrass you out of concern."
“But Lin Hanye is really reckless. Even if something goes wrong while practicing the Explosion Ring and cuts off his path forward, he won’t die so easily.”
"Moreover, once Xue Ye died, the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect was once again suspected of murdering Xue Ye. Whether it was cleared or not, it is unlikely to have much development in the future. Without the restrictions of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, the development of the Soul Master Guild in the future will be unstoppable."
"Before I come back, you must not provoke them. You can try to contact the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect more privately. I believe that after experiencing this, the kid from the Ning family should understand that the Clear Sky Sect is no longer their real enemy, but the Spirit Hall and the Spirit Master Guild."
Tang Wei assured: "Don't worry, father, we will definitely do as you say."
“Me too.”×6
Tang Bai and others also agreed.
Tang Chen nodded with satisfaction, stood up and walked towards the secret room for retreat. He still had an unfulfilled agreement with Poseidon.
If it weren't for the need to take care of the sect, he would have left the path of pursuing godhood long ago.
As for the unstable factor Lin Hanye, it would not be too late to eliminate him after he becomes a god and returns.
Before entering the secret room, Tang Chen seemed to have thought of something and turned back to say, "Wei'er, since Xue Xing will ascend the throne tomorrow, you should go there in person."
"Yes!" Tang Wei responded respectfully, and watched Tang Chen enter the secret room. He didn't look at Tang Bai until the secret room was closed again, and said, "Second Brother, go prepare a generous gift, and inform Bai He to bring a few disciples of the Min clan with me to attend Xue Xing's coronation ceremony tomorrow."
Looking at the entire Haotian Sect, apart from his father Tang Chen, he is the only Titled Douluo who has the ability to fly.
Only in this way can we get to Tiandou City in time.
As the leader of a sect, he naturally couldn't go alone and needed an entourage.
The Min clan, which possesses the flying martial spirit, is the best choice.
"Leave it to me."
Tang Bai agreed immediately and was about to leave.
Tang Guang, the third elder who was in charge of the four single-attribute sects, suddenly said, "Sect Master, speaking of which, didn't the Yu clan take on a construction job a few months ago? It was contracted to the Soul Master Guild. Since Lin Hanye is bullying our Haotian Sect so much, should we withdraw them?"
Tang Wei was silent for a while, then shook his head. "My father is about to leave the Haotian Sect, so it's better not to rashly make enemies with the Soul Master Guild. Just don't let them take over the Soul Master Guild's work in the future. The same goes for the other three affiliated sects."
The seventh elder Tang Lie said: "That being said, the Yu clan, as a subsidiary sect of our Haotian Sect, actually went to work for our Haotian Sect's enemy just for that little bit of money. This is really a disgrace to our Haotian Sect."
"That's right, Niu Gao is indeed very disappointing and must be severely warned." The other elders also nodded in agreement.
In their opinion, among the four major single-attribute sects, only the Po Yi clan that made medicine was somewhat useful. The others could either only forge iron or do hard labor building houses for others. The remaining Min Yi clan was good at nothing except gathering intelligence and could only rely on their Haotian Sect for support.
It really doesn't deserve their status as the number one sect in the world.
But the Pozhi clan is still guarding various secret medicine formulas and is unwilling to hand them over.
This is even more hateful.
At the same time that the Haotian Sect was complaining about the four single-attribute sects, Yang Wushuang, the deputy patriarch of the Po Clan, and Tai Kun, the new patriarch of the Li Clan, had been invited to the Dugu family mansion.
Lin Hanye met them in person.
"Then the manufacturing of medicines and weapons for the Soul Master Guild will be handed over to you two."
Lin Hanye was planning to poach members from the Haotian Sect in the near future, so he didn't put on any airs as a Titled Douluo, and treated everyone equally, just like the members of the Spirit Master Guild.
Value them very much.
"President Lin, you are too polite. Since you trust our Po Yi clan so much, then leave the matter of the medicine to us. I promise that within ten days, I will deliver the antidote, healing medicine and other medicines you need to your clan."
"And so do our Li clan. Please rest assured, President Lin, our Li clan's casting skills are obvious to all, and we will definitely not let you down."
Yang Wushuang and Tai Kun knew about Lin Hanye's reputation, and also knew about the battle scheduled a few days ago.
Little did he know that Lin Hanye and the Haotian Sect were on the verge of a falling out.
Therefore, he was obviously somewhat flattered by Lin Hanye's appreciation of him.
Fate is a strange thing to say.
Not to mention the Poyi Clan to which Yang Wushuang belongs, at least they have mastered some of the best pharmaceutical manufacturing methods in the Douluo Continent, and they can make a living wherever they go.
The Li clan is more miserable.
After Old Titan and the people from the Tiandou City branch were killed by Lin Hanye.
The more lonely I feel.
Not only did the Haotian Sect fail to find the real culprit for them.
Also, because of the loss of Old Titan, the Contra clan leader, they looked down upon the Power clan even more.
Those who had business dealings with the Li clan in the past, because of the destruction of the Tiandou City branch, were afraid of provoking the ruthless people who destroyed the Li clan branch, so they distanced themselves from them.
As a result, the Li clan has had an increasingly difficult life in recent years.
In this matter, Lin Hanye suddenly proposed to cooperate with them.
It is undoubtedly a timely help, giving them hope for revival.
At this time, the tall and burly Hu Yanzhen walked in, "Master, there is news from the mistress that the headquarters has been completed."
"So soon?" Lin Hanye pretended to be surprised, and then said to Yang Wushuang and Tai Kun: "It's a rare trip for you two, would you like to accompany me to the headquarters of my Soul Master Guild? It happens that the chief of the Yu clan, Niu Gao, is also there, so you can catch up with me."
"That's fine." Niu Gao was an old acquaintance of the two of them. Every two years, their four major single-attribute sects would gather together once.
Seeing that the two agreed, Lin Hanye didn't waste any more words and took them out of the hall. He immediately summoned an ice dragon in the yard and took them to the headquarters of the Soul Master Guild - Sunset Forest, Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire.
During the flight, Yang Wushuang stood on top of the ice dragon behind Lin Hanye, with a puzzled look on his face, "President Lin, why did you choose to build your headquarters in the Sunset Forest? Aren't you worried about the inconvenience?"
"It's not inconvenient, because all those who can move into the headquarters are core members of the Soul Master Guild. They usually focus on cultivation and don't spend too much energy on other things. The purpose of building the headquarters here is also very simple. Because I discovered a natural mimicry training ground in the Sunset Forest in my early years. If ice, fire and plant-based soul masters practice here, the speed will be much faster. This is also the reason why I built the Soul Master Guild headquarters here."
Lin Hanye answered.
The group flew for about half an hour, and Lin Hanye brought them to the circular mountain range where the Yin-Yang Eye of Ice and Fire was located.
The Soul Master Guild headquarters is only one frame different from the last time I came.
This time, the building was completely completed.
Different from the common European-style buildings in Douluo Continent.
The overall architecture of the Soul Master Guild headquarters was built in ancient Chinese style according to Lin Hanye's requirements.
The top circle is a magnificent circular pavilion.
Only senior members of the Soul Master Guild at the elder level are qualified to move in.
Going down from the courtyard, all the way to the middle of the mountain, is a loft building that will be used to house families that will join the Soul Master Guild in the future.
This is both a form of protection for them and to prevent betrayal.
At present, only the families of Xiang Jia Zong have moved into the headquarters of the Soul Master Guild.
When new families join in the future, the facility will be expanded.
Countless stone steps connect these attic buildings together, and finally converge on a main road, leading directly to the mountain gate at the foot of the lowest mountain in the circular mountain range.
In addition, at the outermost edge, there is a circle of white poison array carefully arranged by Dugu Bo to ensure that the Soul Master Guild headquarters is not invaded by soul beasts.
Looking from a distance, the poison array was no different from the white clouds in the sky. Combined with the hot spring vapor from the Yin-Yang Eye of Ice and Fire inside the circular mountain range, it gave people a feeling of being surrounded by clouds and mist, like a fairyland in Yuntai.
"As expected of the Yu clan who are good at construction, they have built such a majestic and magnificent complex in less than three months."
Seeing the overall appearance of the Soul Master Guild headquarters, even Lin Hanye, who was calm, couldn't help but be amazed.
Hu Yanzhen, who was standing behind Lin Hanye, nodded and agreed, "Master is right. This building is no worse than the Pope's Palace."
Lin Hanye smiled and did not comment. He could only say that the Pope's Palace and the Soul Master Guild Headquarters were two completely different styles of buildings.
Each has its own merits.
If you really want to compare, it all depends on personal preference.
At least Lin Hanye himself prefers the ancient Chinese style to those European-style buildings.
When Lin Hanye and his four companions entered the meeting hall of the Soul Master Guild headquarters, Niu Gao was already waiting for him.
Also accompanying him was Huang Yueyao, who had become the president's secretary.
On the day she joined the Soul Master Guild, she did not return by carriage, but instead used her own Soul Douluo's speed to rush back to the Golden City.
After arranging everything, he rushed back that day.
Afterwards, he was arranged here by Lin Hanye to handle internal affairs after the completion of the Soul Master Guild headquarters.
I have to say that Huang Yueyao is quite capable.
Under her arrangement, the Yu clan had arranged the furniture in place in less than a day.
And the placement everywhere is impeccable.
A typical career-oriented person.
"President."
"President Lin."
Seeing Lin Hanye and his men coming in, Huang Yueyao and Niu Gao immediately came forward to greet them. Huang Yueyao said, "I have already made arrangements for the Xiangjia Sect. In addition, before dark, Tianba will send the maids and other servants to the headquarters."
As for food, clothing, and daily life, it was impossible to lack maids. Lin Hanye asked Huang Yueyao to arrange a group of girls with clean backgrounds to come in. They were all from common people, and most of them had no soul power and could not practice.
After having Huang Yueyao pay them a sufficiently generous sum of money in advance, Lin Hanye promised that they could stay or leave after they turned 30.
Of course, if you meet someone you like, you can also marry a member of the Soul Master Guild.
During this period, they will not be persecuted as they are in other forces.
It's just a pure superior-subordinate relationship.
At the same time, Huang Yueyao brought her nephew Huang Tianba, the maid who had received Lin Hanye in the Golden Soul Fighting Arena, and several other close associates to become members of the Soul Master Guild.
Currently, in the Soul Master Guild headquarters, except for Bibi Dong, Liu Erlong, A Yin who live in the Yin-Yang Eye of Ice and Fire, and Ling Yuan who occasionally returns to Wuhun City, the families of the Elephant Armor Sect and some elite tribesmen have already moved in.
Together with Xie Ming, Hu Mei, Dugu Xin, Li Bingyan and dozens of newly recruited soul masters above the Soul King level, they acted as guards while Liu Erlong and Bibi Dong took turns training them.
From now on, every year, Lin Hanye will select a group of members who have made contributions to the Soul Master Guild or have outstanding talents, and come for special training to improve their strength.
"Thanks for your hard work."
Lin Hanye had no doubts about Huang Yueyao's work ability.
Immediately, he turned his gaze to Niu Gao and handed over a gold card. "Chief Niu Gao, I am very satisfied with your work. This is the final payment. At the same time, I hope to continue to employ you to help my Soul Master Guild establish a branch in Tiandou City and a Soul Master Academy."
"Thank you for your kindness, President Lin, but we have other commissions to complete and cannot accept your commission."
Niu Gao showed a wry smile on his face.
In fact, if it were any other time, we would be faced with such a large project as establishing a branch of the Soul Master Guild and a Soul Master Guild Academy.
He was eager to get it.
You know, in the past, they couldn't find such a big project even with a lantern.
But they had no choice but to rely on their immediate superior, the Haotian Sect.
Not long ago, members of the Min clan sent news that their Yu clan had accepted a project from the Soul Master Guild, which made the leader of the Haotian Sect and several elders very angry.
They were ordered to return immediately after completing this job and not to accept any more commissions from the Soul Master Guild, let alone have anything to do with the Soul Master Guild.
This made Niu Gao feel aggrieved and helpless at the same time.
The treatment they received at the Soul Master Guild was impeccable. Even the Soul Master Guild's president, the Ice Emperor Douluo, who was hailed by the outside world as the number one soul master in the future, treated them with courtesy.
On the contrary, the Haotian Sect could call them over and dismiss them at will. Even their direct disciples looked down on the construction technology of the Yu clan.
It is true that there is no harm without comparison.
"That's a shame."
Lin Hanye did not look overly surprised. Poaching people never happens overnight.
Then, he added, "In that case, I won't force you. However, in the future, our Soul Master Guild will receive many commissions for construction projects. If Chief Niu Gao is interested, you can register as a mercenary at our Soul Master Guild and take on projects in the future."
"Thank you, President Lin." Niu Gao felt more and more helpless.
Faintly, he seemed to have seen the situation where the Soul Master Guild monopolized the construction industry in the Tiandou Empire, but was unable to accept any projects because the Haotian Sect did not allow them to contact the Soul Master Guild.
But he was very curious about how Yang Wushuang and Tai Kun came here?
Are they also here to discuss cooperation with the Soul Master Guild?
Lin Hanye said, "It's okay. I'm sure you already know Deputy Clan Leader Yang Wushuang and Clan Leader Taikun. Tomorrow is the day when His Majesty Xue Xing ascends the throne. I'm sure you've all received invitations from the Tiandou Imperial Family. Why don't you stay here for one night? Tomorrow, I'll take you to the Dou Imperial Palace."
Yang Wushuang and Tai Kun would naturally not refuse such an invitation.
After all, the Soul Master Guild will be their major customer in the future, and they need to maintain a good relationship with them.
The reason they came to Tiandou City this time, in addition to discussing business with Lin Hanye, was to represent the family to attend Xue Xing's coronation ceremony. In Douluo Continent, almost all soul master families above the Soul Douluo level had received invitations.
Although the Power Clan declined due to Titan's death, the four major single-attribute sects are of the same blood, and the Tiandou royal family will not look down on them.
But Niu Gao was in a difficult situation.
But he couldn't refuse.
Finally agreed.
A moment later, under Huang Yueyao's arrangement, Niu Gao, Yang Wushuang and Tai Kun were arranged to rest in an attic.
As for the members of the Yu clan, they returned to the Yu clan first under Niu Gao's arrangement.
In the attic where Niu Gao and other two were resting.
"Old Rhino, what's wrong with you? Such a big project came to you, but you turned it down. This is not like you."
This was the first sentence Yang Wushuang said to Niu Gao after entering the attic room.
"You think I don't want to? It's rare that President Lin thinks highly of my Yu clan and even plans to entrust us with the construction of branches in the future. But not long ago, the old white bird's clan members just sent us news that the Haotian Sect does not allow our Yu clan to have anything to do with the Soul Master Guild. They said that we work for the enemy forces of the Haotian Sect for a little money, which is a disgrace to the Haotian Sect's reputation."
When it comes to this matter, Niu Gao becomes extremely angry.
It seems that they work so hard to make money, and all the income goes into their own pockets, but every time the Haotian Sect takes the lion's share.
"No way?"
Taikun was a little unconvinced.
"If you don't believe me, just take a look for yourself." Niu Gao didn't waste any words. He took out the letter that the third elder of Haotian Sect asked the members of Minzhi clan to bring to him. It was written clearly and unambiguously.
Let the four major single-attribute sects not get into conflict with the Soul Master Guild and ruin the reputation of their Haotian Sect.
After reading the letter, Tai Kun and Yang Wushuang were silent, because they had just received an order from the Soul Master Guild and received a deposit not long ago.
Seeing the two people's understandable expressions, Niu Gao sighed and said, "It seems that you have also received business from the Soul Master Guild."
Yang Wushuang nodded, and then his eyes became firm in an instant, and he said in a deep voice: "The Pozhi Clan has always put integrity first in pharmaceutical production. It is rare that President Lin thinks highly of us. Since we have accepted the money from the Soul Master Guild, we must complete the Soul Master Guild's commission and never regret it halfway."
"But Haotian Sect..."
Tai Kun also wanted to continue to complete the deal, but he was worried that the Haotian Sect would blame him.
Yang Wushuang snorted coldly, "When it comes to collecting money, they are diligent, but when it comes to working, they are nowhere to be seen. Just like the last time with Old Titan, several years have passed, and they haven't found Old Titan and the murderer. Later, they simply gave up looking for them. As for this business, haven't we received any news? They said that the business has been accepted and there is no way to regret it halfway. If the Haotian Sect really blames it, Uncle Kun, you can come to me. I don't believe they dare to do anything. They don't dare to threaten the Soul Master Guild, but threaten us, the affiliated sects. They are really promising."
Tai Kun nodded, and was very dissatisfied with the way Haotian Sect handled the tragedy of the Heli clan last time, which was a lot of noise but little action.
Niu Gao didn't know what to say when he saw this, but the four major single-attribute sects have always been of the same blood. If the Haotian Sect really blamed the Po Clan and the Li Clan, their Yu Clan would naturally not sit idly by.
On the other side, Lin Hanye had returned to the Yin-Yang Eyes wooden house.
After sleeping with his four wives, Ling Yuan, Bibi Dong, Liu Erlong and A Yin.
The five of them lay down flat on the huge bed.
Lin Hanye lay in Bibi Dong's arms, with A Yin and Liu Erlong nestling in his arms on the left and right. As for Ling Yuan, she did not waste any space and lay directly on him.
Here comes the ostrich egg sandwich with fried dough sticks.
"You damn devil, you finally decided to come back." Ling Yuan moved above Lin Hanye.
"Isn't this to deal with some things? Fortunately, everything went smoothly."
Lin Hanye smiled.
"Will you leave then?"
Liu Erlong leaned into Lin Hanye's arms again, not wanting to be separated from him for a moment.
"Well, Xue Xing will ascend the throne tomorrow, and he will need to go to Tiandou City to settle the feud with the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect. After that, he should be able to have a few months of leisure. The Tiandou City branch is easy to build, just renovate the original Prince's Mansion. The construction of branches in other cities will take a lot of time. If you think it's too boring to practice here, you and Ah Yin will go with me tomorrow. As for Dong'er and Ling Yuan, their identities are too sensitive, and the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire also need someone to be in charge."
Lin Hanye smiled.
“Then it’s a deal.” Hearing that she could leave Tiandou City with Lin Hanye, Liu Erlong was overjoyed and said to Ah Yin quickly, “Ah Yin, tomorrow we can finally go out together to get some fresh air.”
"Yeah." Ah Yin smiled knowingly and was very happy to be able to go out with Lin Hanye.
Bibi Dong suddenly asked, "Is it so cheap for the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect?"
Bibi Dong still felt that Lin Hanye's approach was too gentle, and he should have directly destroyed them like he did with the Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan.
"Of course it won't be easy for them. This is just the beginning."
For Lin Hanye, the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect will be destroyed sooner or later.
But this destruction does not necessarily mean the annihilation of an entire clan like the Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan.
He could first make the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect his money bag, then take over its position, and finally make the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect a part of the Soul Master Guild.
The reason why he destroyed the Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan before was not only to vent his anger, but more to establish his authority.
Take the Haotian Sect for example.
Why did he suddenly become so obedient? Even Tang Chen only dared to use the fake Exploding Ring Secret Book to trick him. Wasn't it because he was intimidated?
They were worried that if they attacked him, they would not be able to kill him with one blow, which would bring disaster to the Haotian Sect.
