Chapter 118: Bai Lingyun might be a Reborn
After they appeared, the summoned people were surprised for a second but then remembered where they were and felt relieved as they reached out for the boxes in front of them.
Seeing this, Li Xinyue waited for all of them and then started explaining what these boxes were for.
"Each of these boxes contains a storage ring containing the family cultivation template and all the basic cultivation manuals you will need.
In addition, there is a set of cultivation resources distributed equally; inside, you will find the family rule book that contains all the family laws that you need to know by heart.
Finally, there are small slips with information about the world you are in and the jobs you can choose from.
But remember that these jobs are selected based on your talents. That does not mean you have to pick from them, as we will not force you to do something you will not like."
This caused all of them to look at their boxes with curiosity as they understood what was inside.
Where did Xu Qianghua get these storage rings? They were created by Li Xinyue using the materials available in the subspace.
And it did not cause too much damage to the still-growing veins, as the amount used to make these storage rings was recovered in seconds.
This is because the Chaos token has the closest connection to the laws, giving the veins a stable and pure source to draw energy during their gestation period.
And the family cultivation template is something that both Xu Qianghua and Li Xinyue had created before the merge as not many things needed to be added.
This is because of the core cultivation manual, the Threefold Path of Harmony, which is one of the most passive but powerful cultivation manuals he has seen.
This cultivation manual is the best one because it does not have many restrictions required to practice, which surprised Xu Qianghua, as all the other manuals had many different requirements, with the high-level ones having some near-impossible ones.
The basic combat methods include the most basic but practical methods that they will need to better deal with any situation.
The same goes for the cultivation resources, which include all the resources required to reach the Peak Body-Building Stage.
Then there are the information slips, which are similar to the communication talismans.
However, these slips instead use the stored Spiritual Qi that contains all the information and then sends it into the user's mind.
This is not dangerous because as the person storing the information uses their Spiritual Qi, the Qi changes to a docile and easy-to-use type due to some of the small inscriptions written on them, which ensures the user doesn't have to worry about someone else's Spiritual Qi entering their body.
While the clansmen looked at their storage rings, Li Xinyue continued.
"However, if you choose one of the jobs, which are mostly jobs from the forces that the ladies behind me control..." She said as she pointed towards the ladies behind her, who nodded.
Then Liu Meiying came next to her and spoke.
"Hello, everyone. My name is Liu Meiying, and Bai Lingyun and I are the main wives who will be in charge of the family affairs, along with Li Xinyue, whenever my husband is busy or in closed-door cultivation." She also pointed at Bai Lingyun as she spoke, who nodded in acknowledgment.
"Along with the family, I also plan to set up a Chamber of Commerce with Bai Lingyun, so if any of you plan to enter the business side of jobs, please register with our Chamber of Commerce." She finished talking and returned to her original spot.
As these were the first batch of clansmen, Xu Qianghua and the ladies planned to let them make their own choices.
They would then introduce themselves and the type of force they planned to create.
This is because, after a few more batches, the group plans to let one of these people be the tour guide.
This will not only save them the hassle of dealing with the newcomers but will also set a standard for future generations, allowing them to make the same decisions without dictating someone else's future based on their own needs.
Next, Liu Anwei stepped forward and said, "Hello, everyone. My name is Liu Anwei, and Bai Xueyan and I are also among the ladies married to Xu Qianghua.
But we are not like the other two. Instead, we plan to create a Sect where we will reside, and we would like it if some of you are willing to join and take up important positions before we open the Sect to the public."
After saying that, she also went back to her original position.
Then, there was the Empire recruitment by Huang Xinyi and the Shadow recruitment by Yan Yuehua.
Finally, Li Xinyue told them about the private Adventurer system and how they can also choose this as their future job.
For Xu Qianghua and the clan as a whole, the Chamber of Commerce, the Sect, and the Empire are forces that will help his family grow as a whole while ensuring they have a powerful stance in the world.
The Chamber of Commerce is a resource hub where other people will buy and sell their items. If there are any items they like, they can get the first choice, which will help them a lot.
As for the Sect, it is a place where the family can hire some of the outstanding female disciples as either their personal mercenary force for the ladies or marry them into the family with the male clansmen.
The same goes for the female clansmen. Xu Qianghua does not want any of the wealth to flow outside, but this does not mean he will force them.
No, he will instead make it so that these people meet more often so that they can create a bond of friendship, which may turn into love down the years.
But that is for the future; right now, he can be an off-hand shopkeeper like Li Xinyue.
The other ladies will take care of these summons, while he will meet the high-level summons and see how to set up the elders and other important positions.
While thinking about this, his attention shifted from the summons to Bai Lingyun, who was now chatting with Liu Meiying about setting up their Chamber of Commerce.
'I need to have a talk with her,' he thought as he remembered how she let him suck her breasts when they first met.
At that time, he was really excited and did what he usually did in his last life, but that was not supposed to happen in this life, at least not at that time.
But it did, which at that time did not come to his mind, but after the world merged, he started thinking about this again and again, and from all the possibilities out there, there was only one that could fit the bill:
Reborn/Regressed.
'But how? I don't think she was anywhere near where he was when it happened to him, and even if it did, how was she successful? It was with Li Xinyue's help that I was able to survive that, but I don't think she has a system.' He thought.
It does not mean that Li Xinyue can detect if there is another system nearby, but in this void, it is not possible for a system to exist as it contradicts the Supreme Will's own universal system that governs the whole void.
While he was thinking about this, Bai Linghua, who had noticed his gaze and heard his thoughts, could not help but click her tongue slightly as she thought about what she heard from his mind.
'So how do I want to play this? I knew he might come for this, but this is sooner than expected, as I thought he would still be busy thinking about either the clan or cultivating.' She thought this because she knew his personality, and he would never think about these kinds of things as he trusted them too much.
But this was also out of her control, as she herself got into the role when she hugged him and did not think twice about it.
Now, things have gotten out of hand, and she is not sure what to do.
However, when she heard what he suspected her to be, she was surprised.
Then she knew this was the best possible explanation, so she started thinking about what to say when he asked her.
After 15 minutes or so, Li Xinyue dismissed the summoned people, gave them a crystal that would help them find their houses, and told them they had a week to report to their job of choice.
