In Kong Jinyin's mouth, "they" are the Elder Council.

Supreme figures of the Human Race serve for only three hundred years before retiring. After retirement, they enter the Elder Council, which is the true foundation of the Federation and the actual center of power.

The original elders who devised this plan were the first Controllers of the Federation after the Martial God departed. They are now referred to as the 'ancestors' of the Human Race.

Kong Jinyin initially thought Su Tu would become exceedingly angry upon hearing all this, but unexpectedly...

The youth before him showed no expression and quietly ate the sundae in front of him.

"So, you will die?"

After swallowing the last bite of his sundae, Su Tu looked at Kong Jinyin.

"I already died long ago. My flesh became an experimental tool, attempted to merge with Martial Fortune. Although it managed to succeed, I no longer belong to the category of 'human', so I can't cultivate."

"What he intends to do is to ultimately transform me into an anchor for the Martial Fortunes of New Star and Ancestor Star, connecting them. Meanwhile, these years I've been a notorious villain, and he's sacrificed too much to clean up 'my' mess."

"His Dao is that whatever is 'traded', must bring 'profit'."

"He has already laid down his chips, and just waits for the crucial moment to reap 'profit', making strides further."

Kong Jinyin spoke with a light chuckle.

His entire life has been a tragedy, all within the transaction of the God of Wealth.

Kong Chunqiu needed a fool through and through, a tool which he could consistently invest in, and this tool must be utterly useless through and through, to let his Dao express to the fullest.

Thus, after the experiment ended, his consciousness was suppressed, and Kong Chunqiu spent greatly to cultivate a second consciousness within him...

As for any notion of a loving father or compensating for the legitimate son, those are just excuses he makes for his actions.

"Will you let him gain 'profit'?"

Su Tu tilted his head towards Kong Jinyin, and as their gazes met, both saw the sea of blood and towering burdens in each other's eyes.

"He will gain, the Elder Council gains too, but as for what they gain, and who gains, it's not certain."

Kong Jinyin's mouth curled into an extraordinarily bright smile.

"What do you plan to do?"

Su Tu inquired.

"During all the years of my suppression, I constantly pondered what I must do for my 'benevolent father' to never forget me, and finally, I found the way."

"Yet, it's terribly difficult, exceptionally challenging, requiring the fulfillment of three necessary conditions."

Kong Jinyin raised three fingers.

"Martial Fortune naturally strengthens the Dao Lineage; I need a sufficiently powerful and highly renowned Dao Lineage to oversee Ancestor Star, to solidify Martial Fortune, establishing it as the root of Ancestor Star's Martial Fortune, this is the first point."

"To ensure the key moment is uninterrupted by any existence while executing the plan, I need to have, before my extinguishment, a being able to shoulder Martial Fortune, to secure all rising Martial Fortune, this is the second point."

"Third, I require a force of slaughter not inferior to that above a Daoist Master, to reap all at the crucial moment!"

Kong Jinyin's voice became deep; each of these three demands is exceedingly harsh.

To transform Ancestor Star into its Dao Field, the Dao Lineage surely must hold a status that the Martial Fortune acknowledges, and as Blue Star is the founding land of the Human Race, for the Martial Fortune's recognition, the status of this Dao Lineage must be above all, and across the Federation, such Dao Lineages are only a few.

The second point goes without saying, as the only successfully crafted semi-finished model, he knows precisely how arduous it is to bear the rising Martial Fortune, scouted across Star River, such individuals may not even be found.

The third point is even more absurd, there exists an ultimate shackle on Ancestor Star, and Celestial Being has even to suppress cultivation. A Daoist Master above, if arriving at Ancestor Star, would be suppressed instantly by that unknowable force.

Were it not for those rules not impacting Martial Fortune, the 'ancestors' wouldn't even dare to entertain other thoughts.

To unleash a killing power beyond a Daoist Master on Ancestor Star is like a fool's talk.

However, what surprised Kong Jinyin was that upon hearing these three conditions, Su Tu's mouth subtly lifted.

"These three conditions are hard to fulfill?"

Hearing Su Tu's rhetoric, Kong Jinyin abruptly froze on the spot, then, a trace of madness emerged in his eyes.

He is the consciousness emerged from errors in succession, and in some sense, he is now Su Tu's 'subordinate', his life and death in Su Tu's thoughts.

He senses that Su Tu truly feels these three conditions are no issue.

"If these three conditions can be fulfilled, and all proceeds smoothly, Ancestor Star will become a genuine Martial Arts Sacred Land!"

"And you, will become... the new Martial God of this era..."

Kong Jinyin's voice became serene at this moment, devoid of hatred, of madness, as if calmly describing a fact destined to occur.

"I do not intend to become anyone; I am just Su Tu, a... man of the Blue Star."

With a tranquil voice, Su Tu spoke.

Soon after, the two left the café separately.

Su Tu walked towards the direction of Tayue Martial Arts Hall without looking back.

Then, a string of curses reached his ears: "Damn!! This Ancestor Star is so disgusting, can't even have a mini teleport gate, making me walk by myself."

Su Tu knew that the vanished 'monitoring' power returned on Kong Jinyin, submerged into oblivion, the two reversed once again, and the next time 'Kong Jinyin' awakens will be when the grand 'play' begins!!!
