Chapter 312: Black Feather

Wan Yi: @Wu Ya Zuo Fei Ji, Lao Da, how about we think about it again? Black Feather is really nice—low‑key, luxurious, and has substance...

Cheng Shuili was a little silent; the name does sound a bit chuunibyou, but doesn't it make people's blood boil?!

The messages in the group keep refreshing.

Liang Shan Bo Yu Zhu Ying Lai: Actually we wouldn't introduce this kind of thing, right? Shouldn't we say "Hello, I'm the person who makes planes for Wu Ya"? Lao Da's name is so impressive?!

Wan Yi: Fortunately Lao Da didn't give himself a name back then...

That's prejudice!

Cheng Shuili frowned, wanted to say something in rebuttal, but after pondering her own achievements she chose to use Dan Zong's name as an example.

Wu Ya Zuo Fei Ji: Dan Zong, the name of my chicken. I named it.

The whole point of that sentence lies in the last three characters, but each person's focus differs.

Xinxue Chuji:??? Dan Zong is just a chicken?!

Liang Shan Bo Yu Zhu Ying Lai: I always thought Dan Zong was a big‑shot's codename... turns out it's literally an egg‑laying chicken?!

Wan Yi:... so Lao Da, you named a chicken Dan Zong and named the dynasty we founded "Raven's Dynasty"... the naming scheme is indeed consistent.

Ai Mi Li: I think I can suddenly accept the name "Raven's Dynasty". At least it's a bit better than "Dan Zong's Dynasty"...

Wu Ya Zuo Fei Ji:......

Enough.

Dan Zong's dynasty has already emerged.

Let's just call it Black Feather; it's short and chuunibyou, but everyone seems to like it.

Cheng Shuili thought for a moment, got up, opened the cockpit door, and sat in the co‑pilot seat.

Su Rui's side glance landed on her the moment she came in; Cheng Shuili is the master who never visits the Three Treasures Hall without cause, so what does she want this time?

"You mean..." Su Rui frowned tightly, Cheng Shuili, without a hint of doubt—she could crush a fly—said, "You want to name the faction as 'Raven's Dynasty'?"

Cheng Shuili gave no reply, just stared at her quietly.

But not answering is confirmation!

Su Rui stepped on the brakes, leaned against the back seat, raised a hand to cover her eyes, and asked, "What's the other name?"

"Black Feather."

"Then let's call it Black Feather."

Cheng Shuili: "......"

She thought for a moment and asked, "Is Dan Zong unpleasant to hear?"

Su Rui pursed her lips before answering, "Compared with 'Raven's Dynasty', this is already a very good name."

Alright, alright.

Cheng Shuili, satisfied, named her own faction Black Feather.

The raven's black feathers.

Thinking that way, it also seems fine.

After entering the name, Cheng Shuili clicked Confirm.

A brand‑new regional announcement was issued!

【Current regional faction "Black Feather" has been successfully created! The lord is "Wu Ya Zuo Fei Ji"!】

There's actually a regional announcement?

System prompts rang out in succession, and a brand‑new, detailed faction panel unfolded before Cheng Shuili.

In the member list, only she was alone for now, but all the sub‑options were already clearly visible!

【You are the lord "Wu Ya Zuo Fei Ji", automatically granted the highest permissions.】

【Please promptly select or acquire a territory as the faction's headquarters to unlock related functions.】

【Cohesion Halo (Initial) activated! When there are two or more "Black Feather" members in the team, all attributes increase by 1%!】

Cheng Shuili first casually pulled the four members of the squad into "Black Feather", granting them senior management permissions just below her own.

The small group instantly became lively.

Xinxue Chuji: Wow! It's in, it's in! Long live Black Feather! Lao Da is wise (thankfully not called "Raven's Dynasty"!)

Cheng Shuili: "......"

The stuff in parentheses can be deleted.

Liang Shan Bo Yu Zhu Ying Lai: Lao Da! Lao Da! Is this a new home?

Ai Mi Li: From now on we'll be the elders!

Wan Yi: I'm teary‑eyed; having followed Wu Ya up to today, I suddenly feel a sense of dust finally settling.

Cheng Shuili actually feels the same.

But now isn't the time for sentiment; the headquarters hasn't been chosen yet.

Cheng Shuili can choose between only two territories: an underground storage room sent by Hu Ge, and a dilapidated manor sent by Ge Wudi.

Since it will be the headquarters, the bigger the better!

Moreover, the dilapidated manor is permanent, no future fees to worry about, definitely the best choice!

Cheng Shuili opened the territory management and set "Dilapidated Manor" as "Black Feather's" headquarters.

Several prompts instantly popped up before all Black Feather members:

【Successfully bound territory "Dilapidated Manor" as the headquarters for faction "Black Feather"!】

【Headquarters functions fully unlocked!】

【Detected that the headquarters' basic facilities are rudimentary; you can spend resources to expand and reinforce. View upgrade options?】

Cheng Shuili gave a quick glance; there were many upgrade items, from reinforcing walls and adding defensive works to constructing simple houses and functional buildings (like workshops, medical stations, training grounds), even options for future farmland, each requiring a hefty expenditure of various resources!

"Indeed, building a faction is only the beginning; nurturing it is the real payoff."

Cheng Shuili muttered something and temporarily closed the panel.

This can't be rushed; it requires long‑term deliberation.

None of these few people in the small group have ever entered the territory, so receiving such a message now naturally makes them want to go in and take a look.

Cheng Shuili initially wanted to enter the territory directly, but after thinking she opened the regional channel for a quick glance.

"Black Feather! Wuya Dalao's faction is called Black Feather!"

"That name works! It's way cooler than I imagined!"

"I thought it would be called 'Wuya Cult' or 'Aircraft Squadron' or something..."

"+1, Black Feather sounds much more reliable!"

"Boss, are you recruiting? Look at me! My attribute points are above average, I have a weapon, and I have survival skills!"

"Please take me in! I can cook and act cute!"

"@Wu Ya Zuo Fei Ji, Boss! What are the recruitment criteria?"

Recruiting isn't urgent; just having her name here draws a crowd, and...

Cheng Shuili lowered her eyes, needing to see what Guanghui and the other are up to now; if they truly decide to follow her, they'd be two rare top‑tier assets!

Cheng Shuili opened a private message to Guanghui and sent a note, then slipped into the territory.

Zhao Hong was still looking at the regional channel; hearing the private message notification, he quickly opened it to see.

【Wu Ya Zuo Fei Ji】: Any plans?

Zhao Hong's first reaction was that the other side indeed knew Zhu Xuan had gotten into trouble.

But he didn't know the agreement Cheng Shuili originally had with Zhu Xuan, so hearing that question he thought Cheng Shuili was testing his loyalty.

He answered without hesitation, clean and decisive.

【Guanghui Zhaoyao Lanxing】: I and Qing Shan are still following you. Boss, I've been calling you that for a while now; no matter what happens to the organization, whatever the future development, it doesn't concern us. Qing Shan and I only obey your orders.
