> [Important: From this chapter onwards, Xiao Rui's sister Zen Ya will be named as Xiao Lian, so don't get confused. Thank you for your understanding!]

The moment the system notification rang out in his ears, Shaurya's eyes sparkled.
> [Reward Received: Sect Main Hall + Sect Structure Unlocked]
[Bonus: 1x Divine Wheel Spin]
"System," Shaurya asked with a grin, "how do I build this sect?"
> [Simple. Go to the location where you wish to build the sect and say the word: 'Build'. The entire structure will form instantly.]
Shaurya smirked. "As expected of my Divine Sect System…"
He turned to Xiao Rui and asked, "Is there any mountain or empty place around the city? Preferably somewhere isolated."
Xiao Rui hesitated for a moment. "M-Master… there is a mountain near the city boundary. But no one lives there."
"Why?"
"It shares its border with… the Demonic Beast Valley. That's why people don't live there and rarely go."
Shaurya raised his eyebrows, remembering he also awoke in that kind of mountain, then smirked. "You mean that lone mountain before the city gate?"
"Yes… master."
He understood, then turned towards his disciples, posture straight and expression commanding.
> "All of you — go home, meet your families, pack your belongings, and in 3 days come to the mountain before the city. That's where our sect is located!"
The disciples nodded and left with excitement in their eyes. But two figures remained still.
Xiao Rui and Xiao Lian quietly stood with lowered heads.
"We… have nowhere to go," Xiao Rui admitted. "It's just me and my sister."
She added softly, "I only have my brother."
For a brief second, Shaurya was stunned. But being an experienced reader of such tales, he quickly composed himself.
> "Who said you are alone and have no home? From now on, this sect is your home. And you… have me," he said with rare warmth in his voice.
"I'll make you so powerful that one day, you'll take your revenge with your own hands."
Their eyes widened. A fire sparked within them.
> "Thank you… Master!"
And with that, the three of them headed toward the forbidden mountain.

As they walked, Shaurya finally turned his attention to the shining icon in front of his system screen.
> [Divine Wheel Spin Available]
"What's this wheel, system?"
> [It is the Divine Wheel of Fate. You may receive anything — weapons, talismans, guardian beasts, teammates, even buildings. Luck will decide.]
Shaurya's grin widened like a child in a candy shop. "Let's roll."
The divine wheel appeared in his system screen, glowing with heavenly light as it spun rapidly.
✨ Ding! ✨
> [Congratulations! You have received: Immortal-Level (Low Grade) Weapon – Meteorite Sword!]
[Stored in System Inventory.]
"IMMORTAL LEVEL!?" he shouted out loud in his mind trying not to show too much reaction but inwardly he was too overjoyed.
> [Weapon/Artifact Levels: Earth, Sky, Spirit, King, Emperor, and Immortal. Each has Low, Mid, High grades.]
[Items cannot evolve but can be crafted or earned through fate. But since you have the system, you can do… anything.]
Shaurya nodded with sparkling eyes. "Understood."
---
By then they had reached the mountaintop.
When they arrived, Xiao Rui and Xiao Lian stared in confusion.
An empty land. A forbidden place.
"Master… are you sure this is where—"
Shaurya raised his hand, smirking.
> "Silence. You are about to witness… the wrath of your master."
He closed his eyes, raised one arm straight, and shouted:
> "BUILD!"
The sky cracked with divine lightning. A golden light enveloped the entire area.
And then…
💥 BOOOOOMMMM!!! 💥
A majestic sect palace rose from the earth. It was massive. Glorious. Divine.
A grand main hall with intricate golden patterns.
Two giant side-buildings: the right for male disciples, the left for female.
A celestial fountain in the center with a statue of Shaurya—hands wide in a proud T-pose, robes fluttering, expression regal.
Several empty lots around — waiting for future buildings.
Even Shaurya was stunned. "Okay… this is… way too amazing."
Xiao Rui was speechless. "M-Master… where did this majestic palace come from!?"
Shaurya crossed his arms, letting the wind blow his robes.
> "You'll get used to such things in time. After all… you've joined my sect."
They bowed their heads in awe.
---
Then they walked toward the main hall.
When Shaurya entered, his eyes lit up like a kid in a temple.
> "This… this looks like a royal palace!"
In the center, a massive silver throne shone like a moonlit god's seat. The aura of divinity around it made even the air feel holy.
He dashed forward and plopped onto the throne with maximum attitude, throwing one leg over the other.
> "Hahaha! This is it! This is the life!"
Xiao Rui and Xiao Lian walked in, saw him on the throne, and instinctively kneeled.
> "Greetings, Sect Master!"
Shaurya leaned back and basked in the moment — one hand on his chin. The aura. The power. The silence.
He felt like an emperor.
Just then, the system's screen popped up again.
✨ Ding! ✨
> [Hidden Special Task Activated]
