Becoming evil makes you ten times stronger, but becoming a demon gives you hundredfold strength-Chapter 323 - 289: The Beast is Released, Awaiting the Opportunity

(It’s the end of the month, seeking monthly tickets, thank you very much, very grateful.)

Qin Ningxue, along with several maids, cleaned very carefully and also shared with Meng Yu some things to be mindful of around the neighborhood. She even recommended her calligraphy and paintings to Meng Yu, which were very spirited and truly nice.

In the Lower Realm, she had been a famous talented woman, with countless people offering a fortune for her calligraphy and paintings, but unfortunately, Meng Yu declined.

Art, in both the Immortal Sect and here, isn’t valued, only those things tied to power are considered valuable.

Before long, the cleaning was finished, and she and the maids stood to the side, waiting for Meng Yu’s payment.

Meng Yu placed ten Spirit Stones in her hand; the cleaning wasn’t worth much, it was just a way to build a relationship. What was valuable was the neighborhood information and precautions she provided.

"Thank you, thank you."

The woman kept bowing, her eyes slightly reddening.

The matter should have ended there, but after some thought, Meng Yu still used the Whispering Secret Technique to say,

"Your face is too beautiful, make a cut on it, if there’s a chance to restore it later, do so. As it is now, you’re purely bringing trouble upon yourself."

The girl was trying hard, desperately struggling to adapt to this world, but her talents were mere embellishments in this barbaric world; what others appreciated was simply her beauty.

She was but a beautiful bird trapped in a cage for people’s enjoyment, with no one caring for the bird’s feelings. The only thing she could do was to sing better, like a thornbird.

To sing even more beautifully from the top of the most painful thorn, she was still just a bird.

Seeing her made Meng Yu suddenly recall Liu Qingshuang, the girl from the Minor World of Eastern Wu who later married him and became the Empress of The Great Tang Dynasty. It had been a long time since he last saw her; he wondered if she was doing well.

In fact, she too was a talented woman, but she never talked about medical books in front of Meng Yu.

The girl’s mouth moved, as if she wanted to say something.

"That’s right, eat more, the fatter the better, being round and plump is best. Your current figure is purely bringing trouble upon yourself."

Then, Meng Yu sent her away.

...

The property transfer process was swift. After giving the Spirit Stones, the place belonged to Meng Yu.

Once again, he swept through the courtyard, sensing no issues, he dismantled the existing Formation and established a Second Order Yellow Sand Formation.

Excitedly rubbing his hands, he then took out the Golden Cores one by one from his Storage Bag.

The operation proceeded very smoothly, and three hundred Golden Cores opened their eyes one by one.

The leader of the team was Fairy Taohua, with more than half being participants from the last operation. Everyone was happy but also very disciplined, waiting for Meng Yu to brief them on the situation.

If an outsider were to see so many Golden Cores gathered together at that moment, they would think they had gone mad.

How could there be three hundred Golden Cores squeezed into one yard?

"The situation is quite complicated."

Meng Yu didn’t say much, but recounted the scenario with Mirror Twelve.

"Senior Mirror Twelve might have found the path to rebirth from the ashes, from the route of the Great Solar True Fire towards the domain of the Great Black Sun. This is good news; our operation will proceed even more smoothly. But as they say, expect the worst before hoping for the best. What if Senior Mirror Twelve has some other intentions?"

It was Fairy Taohua who spoke. She was the first to awaken, and after discussing the situation with Meng Yu, she expressed that she would play the part of the villain.

"The knowledge of the Immortal Sect is a legacy, and Meng Yu’s transmission abilities are a type of Divine Skills. The endless wealth on this side provides the opportunity for a rise.

This is a good thing. The combination of the three can accomplish much. Let me give an example. If Mirror Twelve, the senior, decides to develop on this side, and seizes Meng Yu by surprise, cracking his Divine Skills, then... a Mirror Twelve who can traverse at will, wouldn’t he be able to achieve his personal ideals?"

In history, idealists sometimes kill the most.

"Of course, the likelihood of that is one in a hundred thousand. What I want to say is, how should we extinguish that one in a hundred thousand chance? Ladies and gentlemen, we should have a good talk with Senior Mirror Twelve, speak more positively, show more of the demeanor expected of the Immortal Sect, and try to persuade Senior Mirror Twelve to return to the Immortal Sect."

This was Meng Yu’s intent. Mirror Twelve, you are powerful; you are awesome. As long as you are not at the Old Immortal Gate, and are willing to return to the Immortal Sect, I will make sure to send you back so you can wreak havoc over there.

"Second, there is one month until the next transmission."

Meng Yu spoke, recounting his experience of buying a house in Sleepless City, as well as his subsequent thoughts.

"Sleepless City is a Third Grade Minor World; the highest Cultivation is at the Golden Core level. There are publicly five Golden Core members from Eternal Night Palace, and there might be a few more in hiding, but the total will not exceed twenty. Their main control of the city is through Arrays, named the Eight Scenery Palace, with detailed information yet to be gathered, belonging to the ’dark’ category of Spells.

At present, everyone is safe. Three hundred people combined are more than enough to take over the entire Minor World. However, I think we should not go out. Just stay in this courtyard and wait for the second batch of reinforcements. We agreed to make a fortune together, so there’s no need to make a move prematurely, right?"

"No problem."

Meng Yu’s words had everyone excited and laughing heartily. As for the issue of Mirror Twelve, that was trivial.

Outside the Immortal Sect, Golden Core fall like rain in battle over opportunities, everyone creeping and fawning. And now, what are we worried about?

The stronger Mirror Twelve is, the less everyone loses, and the bigger the gains. As for the rest, to be honest, everyone trusts Mirror Twelve’s character more than Meng Yu’s. In fact, if Mirror Twelve were to massacre the upper echelons of the Immortal Sect, many of them would probably applaud.

"Alright, let’s get to work."

Three hundred people in a courtyard of ten acres isn’t crowded at all. However, one can’t just place a group of people out in the open, so everyone began to dig downward.

Among the team was a master of engineering, directing everyone on how to dig. As for the construction progress, with three hundred Golden Core experts digging together using Spells to turn soil into stone, construct Arrays, and freely utilizing Immortal Techniques such as the Five Elements construction, a dozen or so underground levels were quickly excavated.

The excavated earth and rock were stored in Storage Bags, then everyone hid in the underground rooms. From the outside, no imperfections could be seen, and as for Sleepless City’s scanning system, sorry, that’s a feature of the Nine-Turn Long River Formation, and the Immortal Sect had prepared tools to shield against it.

The next day, Meng Yu went out for a stroll and when he returned, he brought back about twenty people. They entered the cave dwelling, took off their clothes, revealing their Puppet exteriors, and then entered the Storage Bags, while twenty-four Wood Element Golden Core Cultivators became servants in Meng Yu’s dwelling.

These Golden Core experts all used Cultivation Techniques to make their appearances old, their skin dry and rough, their outer appearance was that of ordinary Cultivators whose frail health from living outside showed plenty of scars from the elements.

There were also six disabled individuals, some missing an arm or with a limp leg, and of course, there were even a few children. The Golden Core Experts looked nervously at Meng Yu, and he had to admit these guys were truly the best at role-playing.

But it made sense. A large group of adults without any children, wouldn’t the story fail to hold up?

"These are all brothers who went out to make a living with me. This time, I earned a little bit of money and came to Sleepless City, hoping to settle down and have them help with jobs like watching the door. I’m very happy to have the fate to live alongside all my neighbors. If there’s any offense, please forgive me."

Since he had decided to live here for a month, Meng Yu played the part of a newcomer well, carrying small gifts and visiting each household.

This area was one of the highest-end districts in Sleepless City, where many Foundation Establishment and even Golden Core Cultivators established their homes.

Neighbors were proud or hospitable. Meng Yu visited each household, acting like a new Loose Cultivator, happy and hopeful to integrate into the community.

Some households refused to let Meng Yu in, others were very polite in entertaining him.

Liuyun Thirteen Swords Cao Defang, that name had a bit of fame, especially for someone at the Foundation Establishment Fourth Layer.

After that, Meng Yu lived just like any ordinary Cultivator, rarely leaving home, only occasionally going out to buy daily necessities.

Just one more month to wait.
