From the start, Lin Yaohua was bound to the [Cultivation Clan System]. Starting from nothing, she was determined to build an immortal clan that would endure forever!
Building up a clan was simple: level up, expand, earn points... and train clan members.
But somehow, the initial traits the System gave them seemed all wrong.
Trait library:
[Eight Bowls a Meal], [Would Rather Lie Down Than Sit], [Gambler's Mindset]...
Lin Yaohua: ...
No problem! In the eyes of a capitalist (crossed out) clan leader, there are no useless traits, only cattle and horses put in the right positions!
Lin Yaohua took a deep breath and immediately switched on her leadership (brainwashing) mode:
She looked at the honest young man with the [Eight Bowls a Meal] trait over his head. "Da Niu, from today on, your name is Lin Taotie! That's the name of an ancient ferocious beast. It means your appetite can reach the heavens, and one day your strength will too!"
She looked at the lazy girl with the [Would Rather Lie Down Than Sit] trait and shoved a copy of Zhuangzi into her hands. "Cuihua, from now on your name is Lin Zhuangzi! You love to lie flat, but that's not laziness. It's Zhuang Zhou dreaming of a butterfly! Go wander the void in your dreams and seek the Dao!"
She patted the skinny man with the [Gambler's Mindset] trait. "Gousheng, from now on you're Lin Boyi! Take this Book of Changes, pack your things, and set off! Whether the clan eats meat or has to drink the northwest wind depends on your silver tongue!"
Many years later...
When their enemies came to their doorstep, thinking they could easily crush this newly risen clan, they saw:
Da Niu threw a punch, and heaven and earth split apart. The phantom of an ancient ferocious beast appeared behind him.
Cuihua yawned and laid down an unrivaled killing formation in her dream, trapping and slaughtering thousands of enemy soldiers.
And Gousheng, the legendary figure who never showed his face, casually tossed a die. In an instant, thunderbolts from the nine heavens fell, reducing the enemy army to ashes.
Ten thousand years later, the name of the Lin Immortal Clan resounded through the six realms.
Geniuses emerged one after another, extraordinary talents abounded, and even their dog carried the bloodline of the Sky-Howling Hound.

When the clan was first founded, it was so poor you could hear the coins clink. Whenever a creditor came knocking, Lin Yaohua always managed to scrape together some money to pay them back.
Everyone thought Lin Yaohua's money had fallen from the sky.
Only Lin Yaohua knew all her resources came from a few rounds of "secret financing."
In the early days of her venture, she happened upon the sect leader's son after he'd run away from home. Three months of attentive companionship earned her the clan's first pot of gold.
When expanding their territory, she rescued a sword prodigy being hunted by his enemies. A little warmth and help in his hour of need earned his protection for the clan.
As her influence grew, she became the unattainable ideal beloved by an obsessive Demon Venerable, and successfully secured the mining rights to three regions of the Demon Realm...
Ten thousand years later, the Lin Clan held its annual Family Celebration, inviting prominent figures from every realm.
And so the leader of the Myriad Immortals Alliance, the greatest sword immortal under heaven, and the Demon Venerable who had reclaimed his throne all stormed the place, eyes bloodshot as they stared at the woman seated in the place of honor.
A clan member quietly reminded her, "Matriarch, they're all important figures who claim to have been promised to you as Daoist partners. How many seats should we set aside for them?"
Lin Yaohua looked at the crowd who'd come to collect their debts and said awkwardly, "At the time, I was only after money and resources... Wait, how many people did I flirt with back then?"
