"If that’s the case, then I must resort to the backup plan..."
"What do you think?" the man in black looked at Gu Yuqing.
"Are you Piao Miaoxu?" Gu Yuqing said coldly. "Knowing so much about , with such clarity, it could only be you!"
"You’re quick to react. And then what?" the man in black laughed heartily.
"I advise you to behave yourself," Gu Yuqing said indifferently. "He has already gathered countless powerful allies by his side. You stand no chance of defeating him. And don’t even think about using against him; in his heart, I’m not that important."
The smile on the man in black’s face grew wider.
The tales of Dongfang Mu had already spread throughout the Nine Provinces.
Clearly, Gu Yuqing hadn’t realized that this ’Dongfang Mu’ was Piao Miaoxu in disguise.
"So what?" the man in black scoffed. "Do you think I’m afraid? A loser who rose to power through a woman—he deserves to be called a Saint?"
"As long as he can defeat you," Gu Yuqing said, utterly unconcerned. "It doesn’t matter who he relies on. This world has always judged heroes by their successes and failures. Your bluster, and even targeting , only shows that you are afraid."
"You are afraid of him."
The man in black, so furious he started to laugh, guffawed, "Now that I’ve captured you, whether I’m afraid of him or not is irrelevant."
"As for whether it’s useful or not, how would you know it’s useless?"
As soon as his voice fell, an endless darkness spread from the man in black, engulfing the Small grass house.

"Let’s go, let’s go! It’s ti to visit Ling Province!"
The Moon God was in high spirits, ready to set off with Wang Mu.
Wang Mu felt helpless. This Moon God was truly difficult to please, and he still wanted to ask Gu Yuqing about so other things.
But Gu Yuqing had now gone into seclusion, left the Fengyue Sect, and even fabricated a new identity; likely very few people would recognize her.
"Wait," Wang Mu said. "Didn’t you say I was bound by fate with that person impersonating Dongfang Mu? How co we haven’t t yet?"
"Huh? Let see..." The Moon God took out the Marriage ball, examined it, and said in surprise, "No, you two have already t. And... this red thread seems to be quite tightly tangled, suggesting your relationship has progressed even further...?"
"Not bad, kid, eh?"
Upon hearing this, Wang Mu was stunned.
When did I et Piao Miaoxu?
If I had encountered her, I would have unleashed Little Kun Kun on her already!
Did you get the destined connection wrong?
Throughout this journey, I haven’t t any other cultivators... except for that man in black I had a pleasant chat with in the village...
Wait a second...
Wang Mu’s eyes widened, his pupils contracting.
That man in black... could he actually be Piao Miaoxu in disguise?
Damn!
Wang Mu’s heart clenched.
The Moon God’s Magic Treasure couldn’t be wrong, so it must be true...
Good heavens! She didn’t recognize , and I didn’t recognize her either... A ridiculous yet marvelous sensation surged through my heart.
Especially since our conversation at the ti was quite harmonious... If we weren’t adversaries from the ga... perhaps... Piao Miaoxu and I wouldn’t actually be enemies?
From the perspective of their ga personas, Dongfang Mu was indeed Piao Miaoxu’s enemy.
But as Wang Mu himself, he held no deep grudge against Piao Miaoxu. Then again, who fated him to be Dongfang Mu in that ga world?
Wait! Piao Miaoxu wouldn’t co to Wuyou Village without reason. Was she after Gu Yuqing?
Wang Mu’s heart tightened.
Piao Miaoxu sought to marry Ao Qing. It’s unknown what thods she used—perhaps force, perhaps temptation—but it was certainly to oppose Bi You.
So, her coming for Gu Yuqing must have been to deal with Mu Hongyuan.
Wang Mu imdiately turned back towards Wuyou Village. He hadn’t gone far; in the ti it takes to drink a cup of tea, he had returned.
However, when he reached the Small grass house again...
The person was gone.
"It really was her!"
Wang Mu’s heart sank. He turned and asked the Moon God, "After a bond of fate is ford, can they still et?"
"Of course!" the Moon God replied. "Besides, your romantic destiny seems to remain quite entangled."
