Chapter 33:Golden Goose
Chapter 33 – Golden Goose
After the event in the contribution hall ended, the auction winners visited Miaomiao's room right away. However, they had to wait as Qi Hong and Long Meifang were talking to the young master.
When both of them left, three auction winners rushed into the room right away.
"Young master Xu! I'm here to be your partner!"
"Young master, let me be your dao partner!"
"I'm here to fulfill your request, my lord! You can do anything to me!"
The three girls were eager to dual-cultivate, which astonished Miaomiao. Still, he was happy as he could get stronger with more partners.
"Alright. Take it easy, ladies. I'll take you one at a time."

Qi Ning and Yao Lan entered the secret cultivation room to report the incident in the contribution hall. As usual, Xu Xiuying was cultivating along with her inner disciples. She floated on the Yin Pool and monitored how her Virgin Yin School's disciples absorbed the leaked energy.
"Ma'am, urgent report!"
Qi Ning and Yao Lan cupped her fist and waited for Xu Xiuying to give them the permission to speak.
"Is it about my son again?"
This wasn't the first time that Qi Ning filed a complaint about her son's behavior. As a Virgin Yin practitioner, Qi Ning didn't approve of having Miaomiao around as a disciple.
"Err, yes…"
Despite wanting to expel Miaomiao, Qi Ning couldn't do anything to Miaomiao directly. She was powerless against Xu Xiuying's authority, and Qi Ning was afraid of the repercussion in the case that she killed Miaomiao without Xu Xiuying's consent. Therefore, she came here, hoping to change Xu Xiuying's mind.
"What did he do this time? Has any VY disciple's chastity gotten ruined by him?"
"No, ma'am. It's just… He exploited the contribution hall and posted an absurd request. It caused a commotion, but elder Long Meifang didn't do anything to stop your son. I just hope that…"
"I'm already aware of that."
"Then?"
"There is no harm letting him having his ways with JY disciples."
"But, ma'am, it affects our order!"
Qi Ning's action and her hidden agenda were transparent to Xu Xiuying. As the vice sect master and the Silver Phoenix Sect, Xu Xiuying had access to various information regarding the internal affair, including Miaomiao's recent activities.
"You hate my son, don't you?"
"…"
Xu Xiuying had been keeping tabs on Miaomiao. She was even aware that Miaomiao had broken Zheng Liqin, the strongest outer disciple of the Joyous Yin School, but the latter's cultivation strength got rapidly stronger.
Also, the excuse that Qi Hong had told Miaomiao was a lie. Xu Xiuying never wanted to expel Zheng Liqin, but she used the legal loli to test her adopted son's abilities.
In fact, Qi Hong had been working for Xu Xiuying from the very beginning. This elder reported Miaomiao's daily activities to Xu Xiuying every day, and the latter was the one that told Qi Hong to give Miaomiao a core technique and the 10,000CP.
In conclusion, Qi Hong and Xu Xiuying never wanted to harm Miaomiao, but they wanted to keep him in this sect forever using their honey trap. Both elders wanted to encourage this man to dual-cultivate with every JY disciple to raise everybody's strength. It didn't matter if Miaomiao would break some of them since Xu Xiuying could heal those victims anytime.
They could have imprisoned him and forced him to dual-cultivate, but that might be unproductive. Having a happy male dual cultivator as a worker was better than having an angry prisoner. A happy golden goose could lay big golden eggs, but an angry golden goose might not lay even an ordinary egg.
The recent commotion was in Xu Xiuying's favor. She didn't mind it if Miaomiao wanted to abuse his status and gain some profits from auctions.
"Don't worry about him. I've told Elder Long that she must not allow any VY disciple to participate in that auction. As long as only JY disciple participates, there is no harm letting him do whatever he wants."
"… Yes, ma'am."
Qi Ning bit her lower lip and conceded. Still, she didn't give up trying to find a way to get rid of Miaomiao from the sect.
Qi Ning's expression revealed her thoughts. Even her colleague, Yao Lan, could notice. The latter shook her head and gave Xu Xiuying an apologetic look before she left.
After the two left, Xu Xiuying grinned.
'That brat is our sect's golden goose. Qi Ning, I understand why you want to chase him away, but I can't set this precious treasure free anytime soon. Hell, if he gets strong enough to dual-cultivate with me, I might even keep him as my personal pet.'
An obedient and talented male dual-cultivator was hard to find these days. Even if Miaomiao violated several Virgin Yin disciples, Xu Xiuying wouldn't mind it as long as he could bolster her sect's strength.
Xu Xiuying took out her J-Phone and texted to Qi Hong.
[Your sister came here and asked me to expel my son again. Pay attention to her activities from now on and send your subordinates to protect him. She might try something stupid soon.]
Not only did Xu Xiuying sent a secret order to Qi Hong, but she also texted Long Meifang.
[I'm aware of the auction thingy that you pull behind my back. I don't mind that you use my son to reap some profits, but do me favor. Let as many JY disciples dual-cultivate with my son. Increase the number of auction winners, so more people can have a chance to taste him. It doesn't matter if someone will become a Yin Cauldron because of over-cultivating. Let them have it!]

After the uproar at the contribution hall, Silver Phoenix Sect had a new daily tradition. Every morning at 8AM, inner disciples and outer disciples from Joyous Yin School visited the contribution hall for the daily auction sessions.
The item for this auction was well-known throughout the sect as the winners could dual-cultivate with the prodigal son of Xu Xiuying. The supervisor and the manager of these auctions, Long Meifang, usually held 10 sessions a day, which was higher than Miaomiao had expected.
Normally, not many attractive girls should have wanted to buy a service from a man. However, Miaomiao was special.
The first three girls who had won the first-day auctions returned to their friends and spread words of their experience. Each of them obtained about 3 to 5 Yin Essence from the dual-cultivation sessions, and they got stronger.
Everyone was shocked. They knew that only the 3rd stage or stronger cultivators could convert Qi into Essence, and one of this condensed energy was as potent as having over 1,000 strands of Qi.
The disciples were not stupid. 200CP could be traded for one raw spirit stone, which translated into about five to ten Qi strands, depending on luck. The cheapest secondhand refined stone cost over 1000CP, which could give them about 100 to 10,000 strands of Qi, depending on the remaining energy. However, these stones required skills to cultivate. Only top inner disciples or Zheng Liqin could use them properly.
On the other hand, the average final bid for Miaomiao's dual-cultivation course was 4,500CP, and he could bless them with 3,000 to 5,000 worth of Qi strands. This offered an alternate cultivation path for untalented disciples.
From a glance, buying a refined spirit stone should be the best bang for the bucks. But as many outer disciples couldn't use a refined stone, they opted for the auction instead.
As a result, the auction became popular, and everyone worked hard to collect CP to buy him.
A chain reaction occurred afterward. As the demand for CP rose, most requests on the bulletin boards were taken. Outer sect members started to complain that there weren't enough jobs for them.
Xu Xiuying immediately issued more tasks for her disciples, which increased the sect's productivity. They started accepting tasks from outsiders, and the sect obtained more profits.
Qi Hong and Long Meifang also obtained a lot of CP for their personal use as they held the CP shares. With more CP, they expanded their influence and hired several bodyguards to protect Miaomiao.
As for the winner of this event, Miaomiao had plenty of partners to grind for Yang Essence. It was a living dream for a horny man like him since he didn't need to do anything during the daytime but having sex and eating. Only the night time was when Miaomiao could train in Isolation Space.
Jiang Lan ended up staying as Miaomiao's assistant as he didn't allow her to break free from the mind-broken state. Fearing that this troublemaker would backstab him, Miaomiao planned to continue over-cultivating with her and turn her into a permanent Yin Cauldron.
…
= Days Later =
Many days had passed. As Miaomiao's lifestyle was too carefree and he never showed up on the sparring arena, ill rumor about him began to spread among cultivators. Many prostitutes and JY disciples leaked the information about him to outsiders, and the rumor spread throughout the city.
Many people learned about Miaomiao's existence as a spoiled young master, who did nothing but consummating with women.
He hardly cultivated.
He never practiced martial arts.
He never sparred with fellow disciples.
He never showed up anywhere.
All he did was staying in his room, having sex all day.
Cultivators from various clans called Xu Miao as a good-for-nothing wastrel. Even the Wei Clan had heard about it and confirmed the intel with the spies inside the Silver Phoenix Sect.
Yet, Xu Xiuying, Qi Hong, and Long Meifang did nothing to suppress this rumor. They allowed motor-mouth disciples to spread gossip since they understood Miaomiao's usefulness. It didn't matter if Miaomiao would be called trash since he was the sect's golden goose.
From their perspective, it was not like Miaomiao would spread wings and challenge anybody outside the sect anyway. He would be kept in their ranch to breed, giving strength to Joyous Yin School disciples.
Unbeknownst to everyone, Miaomiao trained extremely hard in the Isolation Training Space in secret. Once he could display his skills in public, many people would be surprised.
It was the day before the annual examination when Miaomiao truly debuted as a cultivator, not as an ex-MMA fighter.
