Chapter 469: So Many Visitors!
On the same night, Ma Moxi visited Sun Bofu. However, he was dead drunk, and the former couldn't extract any information from the wasted young master.
Without a choice, Ma Moxi went to Sun Bofu's subordinates.
It wasn't difficult to locate the counterparts of the Great Generals, aka Lu Meng, Lu Xun, and Zhou Tai, since all of them retained their names. Ma Moxi found them in the servant barrack.
He gathered the three men to interrogate them.
Currently, Lu Meng, Lu Xun, and Zhou Tai were 5th-stage cultivators. Meanwhile, Ma Moxi already awakened his nascent soul, and he was the famous captain of the espionage division.
The trio didn't dare to offend the protagonist. They complied with Ma Moxi's demand and interrogation.
"Who visited your lord earlier today?"
"It's Zhou Gongjin, senior," Lu Meng took the lead and told Ma Moxi everything he knew to protect his squad, such as Zhou Gongjin's background, his relationship with Sun Bofu, and his deeds when he was serving the Sun Clan.
Upon confirming that the intruding 8th-stage cultivator was Zhou Yu's counterpart, Ma Moxi was relieved, "Do you know what he has been doing after the Sun Clan left Jianye City?"
Lu Meng and Lu Xun instinctively glanced at Zhou Tai, who was with Zhou Gongjin when he went missing.
Zhou Tai clicked his tongue as the two colleagues sold him out. He reluctantly revealed the truth.
"Senior, Sir Zhou said that he had a fortuitous encounter and found a mystic ruin. He has just come back from the ruin, and he rushed here to find us."
"Are you sure?"
"That's what we know."
Ma Moxi nodded. Although his instinct told him that Zhou Tai concealed the critical information, he decided not to pry too deeply to offend them.
As Ma Moxi was still concerned about Ma Chao's rebellion event and karma, he tried to avoid unnecessary infighting between allies. Also, the Sun Clan was Miaomiao's vessel clan. He shouldn't offend or give them a reason to oppose Miaomiao.
"Alright. Thank you very much for your cooperation. I'll report this to Lord Mao and tell him to reward you."
"A-Ahaha. You're welcome, senior."
Ma Moxi left, and the trio managed to catch their breath.
The protagonist hadn't realized it yet – His Azure Dragon bloodline's tyrannical presence during the brief interrogation was scary. Lu Meng, Zhou Tai, and Lu Xun felt as if they were conversing with a terrifying expert, who could instantly behead them whenever he wanted.
The divine pill began to show its characteristics after Ma Moxi reached the 7th-stage. The changes would become more apparent once Ma Moxi got stronger.
…
= Yin Slave Mansion, Miaomiao's Room =
Miaomiao sat alone on his bed, meditating by himself.
BANG BANG
"LET US IN!!"
Many depraved yin slaves were slamming the door and the wall, asking Miaomiao to let them in. However, the door and the room were tightly protected by Miaomiao's protective array, which warded off every female creature.
As his harem members grew, more jealous and needy wives wanted more of his attention. However, sometimes, Miaomiao got lazy and needed to rest to adjust his mentality.
Now, he regretted putting his D randomly in many women's holes.
"LET.ME.INNNNNN!!"
BOOOM
Someone attacked the wall with an explosive or a Qi technique. However, the mansion and the room were not damaged.
Miaomiao shook his head and continued his precious resting time. He also wanted to go to sleep, but he was waiting for a report.
He didn't have to wait long before he could hear Ma Moxi's voice transmission.
'I've confirmed the intel. The 8th-stage intruder was Zhou Yu. He visited Sun Ce to catch up with his friends and subordinates.'
'I see,' Miaomiao was relieved. 'Anything else? What's Zhou Yu's motive and goal? What is his background?'
'He went into a mystic ruin a year ago to train, but he was only a weak 3rd-stage or 4th-stage cultivator back then. He came back here to reunite with the Sun Clan. From Zhou Tai's testimony, Zhou Yu seemed to be scheming against Ling Tianlong.'
'And now, he's gone into that portal?'
'Yes.'
'Alright. Good work. I think we can use this.'
'Want me to enter the plane to scout?'
'Huang Hansheng is inside. You'll be a sitting duck if you go there alone.'
'How about you send Dian Wei and Zhao Bao with me? Our combined strength should be enough to kill the archer.'
'I'm not worried about Huang Hansheng, but I'm afraid of Ling Tianlong's luck, Moxi.'
'Have faith in me, Miaomiao. I won't lose.'
"…"
Miaomiao took several deep breaths and licked his fingertips. Then, he touched his eyebrows with the wet fingers, asking his eyebrow instinct if Ma Moxi should enter the portal today.
Ding
[Your saliva contains many strands of Poison Element Qi. A few zits might pop up if you keep smearing your face with your dirty saliva.]
"…"
Miaomiao ignored Dion's warning and concentrated on his eyebrows.
Twitch
As he had expected, the Danger Sensor, his right eyebrow twitched. This task might be too dangerous for Ma Moxi and the gang.
Miaomiao mimicked Yoda's voice to lighten the mood, 'Patience, Young Padawan. I sense the evil force and strong hatred inside that portal. Stand by and wait for me to prepare everything. Once we're ready, we'll enter the portal together.'
'Okay...'
Miaomiao could tell that Ma Moxi was disappointed as his mental voice seemed sad. Still, the former was confident that he had made the right choice.
…
The next day, Ma Moxi realized that he might have run into trouble had he followed Zhou Gongjin into the portal yesterday night.
Qiong Sui, Li Jue, and their gang arrived. They visited the platform to read the boulder's messages for a moment before they entered the portal together.
A few minutes later, Liu Xuande, Guan Yunchang, Zhang Yide, and Xu Lanying appeared. They also grumbled and read the boulder's messages.
The three sworn brothers entered the portal first. However, Xu Lanying suddenly stared at Siren City as she had sensed so many succubi and her former acquaintances, including her daughter.
Xu Lanying ignored her boss and flew toward the yin slave mansion right away!
Ma Moxi was alarmed. He intercepted the nascent soul succubus, thinking that she was raiding the city.
But Xu Lanying didn't do anything. She stopped as Ma Moxi was hovering in front of her.
The succubus politely cupped her fist, "My name is Xu Lanying. I would like to seek an audience with the city lord of Siren City. My daughter is currently serving him as his concubine."
"…"
Ma Moxi hesitated. He knew about Xu Xiuying's family issue and her past, and he also learned about Xu Lanying's background from his intelligence agencies.
He didn't know if he should believe in this woman.
'Let her in, Moxi.'
Hearing the voice of his boss, Ma Moxi let Xu Lanying in the city.
But after Xu Lanying entered the yin slave mansion, more new visitors made Ma Moxi nervous.
Brocell appeared again. He led over 500 golems with the presence of nascent soul cultivators. Moreover, they seemed to emit weird domain energy and aura.
The local cultivators were terrified, mistaking Brocell's squad as an invading army. They shouted and screamed in panic as they ran into the city.
Fortunately, Brocell didn't come here to attack Siren City. He guided his golem warriors to enter the portal, joining the event.
Moreover, the self-proclaimed demon lord also entered the portal!
Now, the number of participants exceeded 500. The qualifier round might be tougher than everyone had expected.
That was not all. An hour later, two more 8th-stage experts showed up.
They were Yan Liang and Wen Chou!
Both former officers of Yuan Shaoqing didn't enter the portal right away. They descended and asked around, searching for Yuan Shaoqing's whereabouts and clues.
It didn't take long for them to learn about their lord's death. Both cultivators glared at Siren City.
Yan Liang bellowed, "JU SHOUFEN!!"
Wen Chou also yelled, "MAO MIAOMIAO, JU SHOUFEN!!"
They simply yelled and shouted their names, but they didn't curse them in the open. They grudgingly entered the portal along with their followers.
Seeing so many 7th-stage and 8th-stage experts enter the portal, Ma Moxi broke a cold sweat. He imagined a scenario, where he got stuck within their encirclement.
He might not survive in there alone!
'That was close. Jeez, that was TOO CLOSE! If Miaomiao didn't warn me, I might have died in there!'
Because of the new strength and the different world, Ma Moxi became overconfident, and his ego inflated. Fortunately, after this setback, he would reconsider his options and prepare for worst-case scenarios like when he worked as an assassin in the modern world.
Furthermore, never again would Ma Moxi ignore Miaomiao's warning.
…
At yin slave mansion, Xu Lanying sat on an opposite couch of Xu Xiuying, whose soul had merged with White Album.
Xu Lanying frowned. She could tell that Xu Xiuying was still her daughter, but at the same time, someone else was living in that body.
"What did you do to her, Mao Miaomiao?"
Xu Lanying glared at Miaomiao, who had been sitting next to Xu Xiuying. Meanwhile, the latter was gleefully sucking his meat rod in her mouth.
No mother could tolerate seeing their daughter blowing their boyfriend's dick in front of her. Xu Lanying had the urge to punch Miaomiao, but she didn't dare to act.
Behind Miaomiao, the maid squadron had been there as well.
Qi Hong, Qi Ning, Yao Lan, Long Meifang, Xiong Zhenzhen, and Zhu Qiao blankly stared at Miaomiao and Xu Lanying.
The maids' pupils were dull, and their smiling faces were stiff. This was their rare chance of meeting Miaomiao after the long departure, but they had no idea how to act in this situation.
Xu Lanying also glared at her sect's former elders and disciples. A few seconds later, she sighed.
"Forget it. As long as she's happy, I don't care."
"You're such a nice mother-in-law, Senior Xu. How about you join my sect as a guest elder? You can also pick a few disciples to inherit your legacy. I have a division that is specialized in Yin and Yang Essence Cultivation Method. There's also an all-woman division. I'm sure you can fit in."
Xu Lanying snickered as she imagined the face of her daughter's rival. She believed that Zhu Huifang might have a heart attack if she were to become Miaomiao's subordinate.
"Mao Miaomiao. Who is your dao god? Who is your backer?"
As Miaomiao and his family grew stronger so fast, Xu Lanying guessed that a higher being might have given Miaomiao some cultivation resources or support.
Meanwhile, Miaomiao wanted to conceal the crucial information. Still, he revealed a portion of the truth to cover his secrets.
"Ever heard of Macho Joshua?"
Xu Lanying's face changed, "So, it's him?"
"I'm currently running a live-stream business, and he's my business partner. I also have a DaoPorn Channel to upload my porn clips. You can figure the rest."
"I see. That's why you have that tower and the resources."
Xu Lanying heaved a sigh of relief. She stood up and turned around to leave.
"You're not going to chat with your daughter or your former colleagues?" Miaomiao was confused.
"Nah, I don't feel like it. My Silver Phoenix Sect has already been destroyed, and we are now strangers. They don't owe me anything, and I don't want to talk to them."
"How heartless. Some of them might have missed you."
"Doubt it."
Xu Lanying smirked and glanced at Long Meifang, who was the sickest of them all. Then, she scoffed, "Good luck managing your reputation. Don't let a certain child-molester ruin your hard-earned fame and public images."
"…"
Xu Lanying left the city and entered the portal, following Liu Xuande's gang.
The former Silver Phoenix Sect's elders sighed. They had so many love-and-hate experiences when they were serving both Xu Xiuying and Xu Lanying.
They never wanted to kill innocent commoners or cultivators to increase their strength ever again. They wished to forget the past.
But for now, they got stuck with an acquaintance, who had climbed his way to the top with his dick.
Long Meifang secretly checked Miaomiao's rod size. She wondered if she could teach him a transformation technique, so he might transform into a child to play with her.
As for Miaomiao, he let Xu Xiuying blow him until she was satisfied. Then, he returned to his room and fell asleep, repeating his daily routine.
Again, nobody managed to enter his room, which vexed his night-crawling wives.
…
Days passed.
After so many experts had entered the portal, no daredevil had enough courage to join this event. They simply gazed at the vortex and Siren City Wall, waiting for Miaomiao's men to enter.
So many enemies of Siren City were inside, and they might have to go through dangerous deathmatches once again. They were curious how the city lord would react to the challengers.
On the last day of the grace period, Azazel and Uriel returned to Siren City.
Meanwhile, Miaomiao gathered all his representatives in front of the portal, ready to join the event.
Azazel counted the number of Miaomiao's fighters. Then, she nodded in satisfaction.
However, Uriel stopped Miaomiao from entering the portal. He pretended to make an announcement.
"Mao Miaomiao. You have done well gathering promising fighters to join this event. As a reward for your effort, I shall bestow you a blessing."
Uriel cast a light spell on Miaomiao and his fighters. He also secretly flickered his fingers, sending small boxes of pills into Miaomiao's robes and everybody's pockets.
"Now, you may enter the portal. We shall follow you. And once the last person has entered, the portal will be closed, and we shall start the Selection Tournament Qualifier Round."
