So Demon Cultivators were talented and improved upon the Infinite Demon Technique, forming various Demon Cults. However, to her, they were all a piece of cake.
Then, using Shuo Wuji’s renown, she gathered all the Demon Cultivators of the Nine Provinces. In front of everyone, she then defeated the most powerful Demon Cultivators one by one. The process was an almost complete rout.
Moreover, due to the Ten Thousand Demons Returning to the Ancestor Technique, these Demon Cultivators not only lost but were also thoroughly convinced and willingly submitted.
Thus, what seed almost impossible for the Nine Provinces cultivators was easily accomplished. This was also worthy of Dongfang Mu’s reputation.
Furthermore, she had already gathered too many powerful cultivators around her. This ford an incredibly fearso force, compelling others to accept her authority, whether they liked it or not.
It was just like... the earlier situation with the Dongling Sea Dragon Palace in Xilu Land.
"When should we make our move on him?" Shuo Wuji transmitted his voice.
With the Holy Master’s current prestige, a single command could rally the nurous forces around her, enough to directly crush Wang Mu into powder. The prerequisite was... that his confidantes didn’t intervene.
Now, the Holy Master had stirred up such a major incident, yet those confidantes of his hadn’t made any move. This could only an one thing: they were all engrossed in preparing for their Crossing Tribulation and couldn’t appear. Either that, or they were entangled in other matters.
Otherwise, they would have acted when they were on the Huangtian Continent. Even if they had intervened, the Holy Master wasn’t afraid.
The Holy Master was a prodigy. Even if Dongfang Mu himself confronted her, he wouldn’t be able to distinguish the real from the fake in a short ti. So what if they had?
"Not in a hurry," Piao Miaoxu said indifferently. "Do you know why I previously went to the Dongling Sea Dragon Palace to seek the hand of their Third Princess?"
Shuo Wuji was taken aback and shook his head slightly.
The Dongling Sea Dragon Palace was one of the top forces in the mariti regions and had connections with Immortal Bi You.
The Holy Master shouldn’t have ddled with forces related to Dongfang Mu’s confidantes, to avoid them detecting her...
"That bastard is truly a Love Saint..." Piao Miaoxu sneered. "He didn’t even spare the females of the Dragon Clan..."
Shuo Wuji’s heart stirred. He had also heard that Wang Mu, number one on the Heavenly Pride Rank, had almost beco the son-in-law of the Dongling Sea Dragon Palace... But hadn’t he refused later?
"That Third Princess is Nanrong Biyou’s disciple," Piao Miaoxu said. "That ans Dongfang Mu, that scoundrel, dallied with his own confidante’s disciple. Tell , doesn’t that bastard deserve to die?"
Shuo Wuji: "..."
Indeed, he deserved to die.
"I truly feel sorry for his confidantes," Piao Miaoxu laughed heartily. "Of course, that Third Princess Ao Qing still doesn’t know that bastard’s true identity, but she’s aware that he has an ambiguous relationship with her Master... And that bastard has been feigning avoidance, rely because he’s afraid Nanrong Biyou might slaughter him."
Piao Miaoxu smiled slightly. "As for , I plan to save his confidantes."
"Save them?" Shuo Wuji was stunned.
"I want his confidantes to beco utterly disappointed in him and then leave him," Piao Miaoxu said, her eyes narrowing. "I can’t use Dongfang Mu’s identity to walk the world forever. That bastard has many tricks. To be absolutely safe, if we still can’t eliminate him this ti, then I will face a great disaster..." Piao Miaoxu stated calmly. "Considering this, I must first send away those overly powerful confidantes of his, one by one."
"As far as I know," Piao Miaoxu mused, "those four confidantes of his are all preparing for their Crossing Tribulation. However, Crossing Tribulation requires leaving this realm for the Upper Realm. If they are extrely attached to Dongfang Mu, they would likely choose to stay, which would be detrintal to . Only by ensuring they ascend peacefully to the Upper Realm, one by one, then... even if we fail this ti, Dongfang Mu will no longer have any chance to turn the tables!"
Hearing this, Shuo Wuji’s pupils shrank.
Truly a worthy Holy Master! She had already thought this far ahead? With our current power, and Dongfang Mu already old and frail, dealing with him should be a simple task, shouldn’t it? How could there still be problems? Of course, the Holy Master must have faced too many failures, leading her to subconsciously plan for defeat... Still, I must admit, such profound planning made Shuo Wuji’s scalp tingle.
"When I, before all the Nine Provinces, announce my marriage to Nanrong Biyou’s disciple..." Piao Miaoxu said, "what do you think Nanrong Biyou’s reaction will be?"
"Kill Dongfang Mu!" Shuo Wuji exclaid.
"No, she won’t be able to kill him," Piao Miaoxu shook her head. "That bastard and Nanrong Biyou share a profound affection, a bond forged through shared life-and-death experiences. That bastard is in his current state all because of Nanrong Biyou; she definitely won’t be able to bring herself to kill him. But she will definitely be so infuriated that she’ll ascend directly to the Upper Realm."
Shuo Wuji took a deep breath.
So that’s it! I was wondering why the Holy Master, who showed no interest in marrying other female cultivators, specifically targeted this one...
Shuo Wuji began, "But, as for Ao Qing..."
"She’s rely a little Divinity Transformation cultivator. Do you think she can resist that bastard’s charm?" Piao Miaoxu scoffed. "She’s just a young girl who has developed so feelings for him. She doesn’t know that Wang Mu is Dongfang Mu. So... she only knows that she doesn’t want to get between Wang Mu and her Master; otherwise, she would face her own conscience. So, I used a little trick and gave her an idea: she can feign marriage to , and I won’t touch her. This way, she can prove to her Master, and to Wang Mu, that she will absolutely not get involved in their relationship."
