To Lin Mo's knowledge, Taihao is the head of the Pantheon and the one responsible for bringing up the idea of the Divine Convenience Store. All the modern product suggestions came from him, or at least, the concept of them based on what he saw on Earth. Lihua, on the other hand, was the Goddess of Harmony and Commerce. She set up the Customer Service Hotline and based on what he heard from their conversation, she's also a co-developer of the Divine System Interface integrated with the store. She's quite an expert in developing systems. Apart from them, there were also Xing Xing and Chuang which they hadn't met yet. Xing Xing created the beauty products and left her signature on each of them, allowing Xiaoyu to create a bundle using her name as a brand. Chuang was the head of the Development Division and was responsible for forging the weapons and armor being sold in the store. What about the others? For example, those who made the talismans and concocted the pills. The ones responsible for producing the snacks, drinks, and more. Taihao and Lihua exchanged glances as if silently deciding how much they could reveal. Finally, Taihao let out a soft chuckle and nodded. "Alright, I suppose it's time you learned a little more about the divine beings behind the store," he said. "After all, you are the one selling their creations." Lihua added, "You've already deduced quite a bit. Xing Xing handles beauty products, and Chuang is the one forging weapons and armor. Chuang is also the head of the Development Division. Every product will have to go through to him for quality checking. But the Celestial Workshop isn't just limited to them." She flicked her robes, and a pure white scroll materialized in the air. As it unfurled, names and their respective domains began to appear. [Divine Pantheon's Development Division: Chuang (God of Craft and Innovation) – Head of Development. Weapons, Armor, and Forged Artifacts. Xingxing (Goddess of Beauty and Refinement) – Cosmetics, Perfumes, and Aesthetic Enhancements. Danzhu (Sage of Alchemy and Elixirs) – Pills, Tonics, and Herbal Remedies. Weizhi (Master of Mystic Inscriptions) – Talismans, Charms, Formations and Arrays. Huoling (Ember Saintess) – Edibles, Snacks, and Fire-based culinary products. Shuiran (Serene Tea Deity) – Teas and Calming tonics. Leikun (Thunder-Forged Brewer) – Beverages and Spiritual liquors. Miren (Deity of Sweet Indulgence) – Desserts and Pastries. Hanye (Frost Spirit Artisan) – Refrigeration, Frozen goods, and Ice-based consumables.] [Divine Pantheon's Research Division: Lingyan (Scholar of Cosmic Insights) – Head of Research, oversees all theoretical advancements. Zhenhai (Master of Defensive Constructs) – Protective artifacts, barriers, and security enhancements. Xuanlu (Innovator of Spiritual Mechanics) – Integration of spiritual and divine energy with modern convenience. Shengmu (Oracle of Biological Harmony) – Nutrition, health supplements, and divine healing remedies. Qingzhi (Visionary of Sensory Experience) – Enhancements for taste, scent, and sensory refinement in products. Jingyi (Seer of Astral Alignments) – Astrological guidance, prediction-based enhancements for products. Yufei (Phantom Artisan) – Stealth-based items, concealment artifacts, and espionage tools.] Lin Mo scanned the list, his brows raising slightly as he took in the sheer number of divine beings contributing to the store. He had expected a few more names but this was practically an entire divine enterprise. "The Research Division works alongside the Development Division," Lihua explained upon noticing his furrowed brows, "While Chuang and his team focus on crafting and perfecting products, the researchers push the boundaries of what's possible. Without them, many of the conveniences provided by our products wouldn't exist." Lin Mo nodded as he tried to memorize their names, "That means every item in the store carries the signature of at least one divine being, even if customers don't realize it." "Mhm. Every product represents a piece of their divine expertise. You don't have to worry about meeting them. Most of them are aloof existences. Some of them may visit the store in the future but you just have to do your thing." Taihao secretly grinned. He's looking forward to how Lin Mo would act around them. Lihua added. "Of course, if you did something that took their interest and if the store continues to grow, some of them may decide to reveal themselves. After all, even gods take pride in their work." Lin Mo couldn't help but chuckle. "So, if I have a suggestion or if a customer has a problem with a product, are those concerns getting forwarded to them?" "Yes. In fact, any suggestion made by you through the system will be sent to us. I will then hand it to the divine being responsible for that particular product or concern. As for the customers' concerns, Yangyang will compile them and send them back for review. But I wouldn't recommend you to draw their ire by being so nitpicky. Be reasonable. Some of them are quite particular about their craft." Searᴄh the NôvelFire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Lin Mo smirked, already imagining what kind of personalities these divine experts had. It seemed the deeper he got into running the store, the more it felt like he was managing a divine R&D department rather than just being a convenience store manager. At this point, Xiaoyu who was silent for a while, blinked at the extensive list, her eyes scanning each name and their respective roles. "Wait… there's actually a divine being dedicated to making desserts? Boss! We need more of those!" She exclaimed. Yangyang chimed in, "Zhenren Miren takes her craft very seriously. She believes that even cultivators need moments of sweetness in their lives." Liu Xiaoyu and Xiao Ya's eyes sparkled at that. They're looking forward to what kind of products that divine being would bring to the store in the future. Eventually, Lin Mo relaxed his shoulder, "Alright. I'm satisfied. That is all I'm inquiring for now. I better not ask you what exactly are you trying to achieve for opening this store, right? "Hoho… Not exactly. You've already figured out our aim, young man. To spread and reestablish our influence." "That's quite a specific word. Reestablish. Did the Divine Pantheon get kicked out before?" "No. We only took a backseat and allowed the realms to develop on their own." Taihao's tone was nonchalant, but there was an undeniable weight behind his words. "Mortals, cultivators, immortals, and even deities come and go. We've always been here, watching, nudging things along when necessary. The Divine Convenience Store is simply a new approach. One that aligns with the modern age and the inevitable changes to come." Lin Mo narrowed his eyes. "Changes?" Lihua interjected this time, "No need to concern yourself with that just yet. You have enough on your plate, don't you?" Her smile was serene but her words carried an implicit message: You'll find out in due time. Or if not that, it probably meant, 'You're too weak to influence it'. Lin Mo sighed but didn't press further. He had learned enough for now. Sometimes, it's better to be ignorant of things one cannot handle yet. Besides, with the store's expansion, his immediate concern was integrating all these new features and seeing how customers would react tomorrow. After a while, the two divine beings departed which signaled the end of the day for everyone in the store. Since it was already deep in the night, Liu Xiaoyu escorted Xiao Ya back to her house. She's not going to stay with them. She had a family to return to, after all.
