"I made a fortune!" Lin Jie wanted to jump from joy.

Meanwhile On The Blood Star
On a mountain peak piercing through the clouds, a giant figure covered by crimson shadows, and surrounded by thousands of forces from every race imaginable, rested upon his throne.
His body was ten times larger than even the tallest man, his face sharp and comfortable to look at, with deep blood red eyes, and long and silky black hair. His commanding aura covered the entire star, his muscular physique covered by a divine robe soaked in godblood and his head crowned with a black thorn circlet.
The emperor on the throne of the blood star, Galtak Jiran Reev laughed aloud and sniled from ear to ear.
"I put that post up a hundred years ago, I thought this war was all but lost…" He looked at the feathers in his hands. "HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! When I win this war, I'll send you a proper thank you, LuckiestImmortal!"
Debts had to be repaid, to Jiran Reeve, Lin Jie selling him the feathers at such a smidgen of the real price was a favor, and he felt indebted to Lin Jie. They both presumably didn't lack credits, one with the word immortal in his name and the other with Lord in his title, so he felt Lin Jie's actions were a sincere attempt at friendship and he was in his debt.
In reality, be was dead broke due to the war he waged with the Blue Heaven Star.
With a wave of his hand, he released the feathers into the air and suspended them with his power.
"FROM THE EARTH CAME BLOOD, FROM THE HEAVENS CAME LIFE, FROM HELL CAME DESIRE, FROM SUFFERING CAME SURVIVAL, FROM THESE FEATHERS RISE, MY ARMY OF ANGELS! BLOOD ANGELS DIVINE AND POWERFUL, ANSWER THIS GOD'S CALL AND FORM!"
Instantly, crimson vortexes formed on each feather and enormous beings clawed their way out of an unknown space…
….
Meanwhile, Lin Jie was browsing the market.
So many credits, I should be able to buy some good things! He felt like a wealthy man doing his shopping, in his mind 7500 Credits could buy him anything he wanted.
"Right, Nyx, does everyone on here also have a system?"
[Negative, only the host has a System. Others in the market gained access to only the market by ascending.]
"Ascending to what? Not godhood right?"
[System LVL too low.]
Lin Jie sighed and got back to browsing.
.
.
"Huh? Isn't everything a bit too expensive?"
[The host is currently far too weak, so the prices are adjusted for your safety, the stronger you become the lower the prices will be.]
"That's annoying,"
[Would you like to see the purchases recommended for the host?]
"Sure."

"Not bad-"
"Lin Jie, you little bastard, come sweep the gate before I bury you!" An old voice interrupted Lin Jie.
"It's old Hao, the servant in charge of managing the disciples, if I don't start sweeping soon i'll be in trouble."
Throwing on the first set of black robes he found, Lin Jie took his broom and ran out in a hurry towards the sect gate.
The memories didn't do it justice, this sect is truly beautiful!
Nestled within a sprawling valley by towering, jagged mountains, the [Heavenly-Demonic Cult] was a masterpiece of elegance. The sect's territory a sea of crimson and black, its architecture a mix of grandeur and foreboding beauty.
Towering pagodas with black-tiled roofs edged in scarlet sprawled across the valley floor, connected by bridges of polished obsidian. Fiery red lanterns hung from every archway, their glow casting a warm but commanding light as disciples bustled through wide, cobblestone avenues.
At the heart of the valley rose the central peak, a majestic mountain crowned with a gleaming crimson palace. This summit was reserved for the Heavenly Demon, the god of the cult, and his disciples, their privilege made clear by the cascading waterfalls and floating spirit formations that guarded the pathways leading to its heights.
It didn't take long for Lin Jie to reach the gate as the lower disciples lived on the outskirts of the sect.
The gate was tall and wide with the name of the sect written in gold, the moment he arrived he started sweeping.
Those coming in and those leaving couldn't keep their eyes off of the beautiful youth. They felt that a menial task like sweeping didn't befit a noble young master like Lin Jie at all. Little did they know he was the same ugly toad they were cursing at only a day before.
[A new mission is available in the Book Of Vows.]
A white book appeared in front of Lin Jie and he grabbed it before anyone could spot it floating.
[The Book Of Vows is only visible to the host.]
"Phew,"
When he opened it, words from nowhere on the paper.
Mission 1: [Tease Mei Lan]
Reward:[White Serpent Bracelet]
Mission 2: [Anger Luo Jin]
Reward:[Eye Of A One-Legged Dragon]
Who are these people? Mei Lan..Mei Lan! The white pheonix beauty of the sect!
