On the journey, events unfolded just as Wang Mu had expected.
Only half a month had passed, yet another series of shocking news from the Nine Provinces continually arrived.
When a Saint erges, it is bound to shake the entire Nine States.
Especially since Dongfang Mu’s identity was too astonishing—this was the Saint who had changed heaven and earth in the past. Anyone with even slightly higher cultivation knew what the ergence of such a person signified today.
And what imnse Qi Fortune would converge upon such a figure?
As for the truth of it, that naturally went without saying.
"Dongfang Mu traveled across the Huangtian Continent, and many female cultivators from first-class sects were chard by his allure, wishing to follow and cultivate with him... Among them were notables like Elder Canglan of the Shuiyun Sect, Master of Fate Daquan of Glazed Lake, and Buddhist Ling Bo of East Spirit Mountain..."
"Truly worthy of a Saint. Is his charm really that potent? These are all famous female cultivators from the Huangtian Continent... What is he trying to do?"
"Isn’t it obvious? Forming connections, of course."
"The man was dead for a thousand years, and now he’s resurrected. Shouldn’t he be allowed to enjoy himself a little?"
"This is outrageous! These are all female cultivators at the Divinity Transformation Level!"
"And what’s this? That Ancient Sage has already started to plague nurous female cultivators in Ling Province..."
"Are they blind? Even if he’s an Ancient Sage, there’s no need to follow him around, right?"
"So despicable..."
More comnts like this followed.
Wang Mu was speechless. Look, here it cos!
He hadn’t even reached Qianzhou yet, and the news along the way was already making Wang Mu’s ears ache.
Damn it, that Piao Miaoxu is ruining my reputation!
Listening to it all gave Wang Mu a headache.
Moreover, she was indiscriminate; the female cultivators she gathered even included widows.
Buddhist Ling Bo from East Spirit Mountain, for example, was a female cultivator whose Taoist couple had died a hundred years ago. She had been diligently cultivating at East Spirit Mountain and rarely made public appearances.
"You see it now, don’t you?" Wang Mu said to the Moon God.
"HAHAHA..." The Moon God had been listening with great relish throughout their journey. "What have you figured out? Isn’t this great? A Saint actively seeking connections, subduing nurous female cultivators with his charm. Although he’s a bit of a philanderer, doesn’t it also demonstrate his capabilities?"
"So, this is ’his’ ability?"
The Moon God asked in confusion, "What’s wrong with that? Besides, haven’t you attracted many female cultivators yourself? How can you criticize him? Are you the only one allowed to attract so many female cultivators, while a Saint can’t have a few female confidantes?"
Wang Mu opened his mouth, but for a mont, he was unable to refute.
This Piao Miaoxu... Wang Mu’s mouth twitched. He was genuinely puzzled. These female cultivators’ realms were not low; they were mostly high-ranking figures within the major powers of various continents, or they were formidable Loose Cultivators.
Even if Piao Miaoxu was impersonating him, she was still a woman... How had she managed all this in such a short ti...
Well... that’s true. The ones who understand won aren’t necessarily n; it might be won themselves.
Perhaps, when a woman plays the role of a Sea King, not many other won can resist her... Especially since that Piao Miaoxu was using his na...
And Wang Mu faintly understood what sche Piao Miaoxu was aiming for.
"Then let’s continue moving forward," Wang Mu said.
After entering the borders of Qianzhou, news about Dongfang Mu ca wave upon wave, like a tidal surge.
Almost every city and every sect was frenziedly spreading it.
"Now that Dongfang Mu has gone to Ling Province—Ling Province! That’s the continent with the most Spirit Clans. Surely Dongfang Mu doesn’t have designs in that area too?"
It seed to confirm what many people were thinking...
「It wasn’t long before.」
A series of reports that made Wang Mu’s ears tingle kept coming.
"The Clan Leader of the Riding Phoenix Clan, one of the three major Spirit Clans of Ling Province, has already succumbed to Dongfang Mu’s charm, and the entire clan is willing to follow. This Clan Leader, Huang Lan, is a being at the Peak of Divinity Transformation..."
"The Qingqiu region is now in an uproar, with even the Qingqiu Ancestor making an appearance... It’s said that the Qingqiu Ancestor was once a Green Fox saved by that Ancient Sage..."
"And San Sheng was supposedly a comrade-in-arms who fought alongside that Ancient Sage back then..."
"The three major Spirit Clans of Ling Province—they’ve all fallen... He’s too powerful..."
"But there’s still one more clan, isn’t there?"
"Actually, after the Cheng Huang Clan submitted, the others hardly mattered anymore..."
"He’s already at Divinity Transformation. Will a Crossing Tribulation cultivator be next?"
More chatter followed.
Green Fox? Wang Mu frowned.
Back in his gaming days, he had never saved any Green Fox, had he?
There were only three pets in total.
He had been to Qingqiu Mountain, but had no such mory from that ti...
"It must have been spread by Piao Miaoxu," Wang Mu shook his head. There was indeed a plot involving a fox in the ga, but it wasn’t a Green Fox.
And it was just a short side story.
It had no impact on the main love interest storyline; its primary purpose was to allow players to obtain items. In the various storyline paths, there were many such side quests, and they rarely left a lasting impression... they just passed by in a flash.
She’s roping in more and more people...
Wang Mu felt that the bla he was shouldering was likely to grow even heavier.
Moreover, Dongfang Mu’s ergence seed to have brought many ancient beings out of the woodwork.
For example, supporting characters who had interacted with the protagonist in the ga, and even so minor characters Wang Mu barely rembered.
Heroic Road Dust had far too many minor characters. Generally, if they weren’t related to the main female lead, Wang Mu would only rember them selectively. For instance, he might recall more important supporting characters, like the martial brothers of Leisure Cloud Valley, elite disciples from the major sects, and the respected, older generation of powerhouses in the Jianghu. Wang Mu had rarely heard of these types of characters in the Nine Provinces.
The only one he had so impression of was a disciple of the rciless Swordsman Liu Yibai, who belonged to the Qianyuan Sword Sect in Qianzhou.
