Not Much Stir

Before returning to Shuntian Island, there were still some things to keep an eye on. During the inspection of the military camp, it was discovered that nearly two hundred team members had formed dao companion with the female members under Bai Suzhen's command, living comfortable lives. With these examples, the morale of the soldiers gradually stabilized, and everyone began to regard Utopia as their home. The only problem was that there were far more men than women; if this continued, problems would arise.

So, Yue Qianchou gathered all the male team members together for a general meeting. He raised his arms and assured them that more women would definitely come to Utopia, telling them not to worry. If all else failed, he would lead them to raid the Wangyue Sect, since the Wangyue Sect was full of women, and everyone would have women by then. These words immediately drew cheers from the team members, who shouted in unison, "Long live the leader!"

After inspecting the troops, Yue Qianchou arrived at the area under Dongguo Su's jurisdiction. The land reclamation and planting project, led by Dongguo Su and his group, was already taking shape. Although these people were all older Qi Refining Qi Refining stage, farming was relatively easy for them given their cultivation levels, especially since they were constantly improving. Yue Qianchou was delighted to find that the crops and livestock they produced were already sufficient to meet Utopia's needs, eliminating the need for him to constantly go out to purchase supplies. Of course, this success was not only due to Dongguo Su's dedication but also greatly influenced by the miraculous effects of the purple chaos. For this, Yue Qianchou expressed his appreciation to Dongguo Su, who repeatedly replied that it was only right.

Under Chen Feng's supervision, the production of elixirs and Law Artifacts had begun in large quantities, enough to meet the army's needs. The alchemy and artifact crafting were progressing towards higher quality and refinement; however, the supply of raw materials for artifact crafting remained a bottleneck, requiring him to find a solution. In short, everything in Utopia was on track, Yue Qianchou was quite satisfied.

At the same time, he also experienced welcome changes within his body. Since absorbing the Azure Flame, the speed at which his core was forming had increased significantly, requiring more and more Spiritual Qi. He believed that he would soon break through to the late Core Formation stage. Overjoyed, he cast his gaze towards the distant horizon and vanished from his spot. He wanted to test just how much power he could unleash with the Azure Flame.

After finishing his business at Utopia, he went to the Marquis General's Mansion. Dozens more trainees with Spirit Roots had appeared in the back garden; undoubtedly, they were brought in by Ling Feng and his group. He waved them over and brought them into Utopia. Ling Feng and the other two weren't there; only Shi Xiaotian was present. Ever since killing the Imperial Preceptor, Shi Xiaotian hadn't dared to go out casually. He was constantly worried about the safety of the women in his family, and if he were home, he could at least offer some help if anything happened.

After inquiring about the General's Mansion and finding no problems, Yue Qianchou, dressed as a servant again, strolled out of the General's Mansion, his destination naturally being the Myriad Flower Pavilion Thousand Flowers Pavilion). As soon as he arrived, Hundred Charm Demoness would know that a graceful woman draped in red gauze was already smiling at the pavilion window.

Yue Qianchou felt a headache coming on the moment he saw her charming smile, and he really wanted to turn around and leave. But he had no choice but to bite the bullet and go up to her, bowing and calling out, "Master's wife!"

Hundred Charm Demoness looked him over with some surprise, sensing something new about him—a kind of confidence. Yue Qianchou himself noticed this. Before, when facing cultivators in the Tribulation Transcendence stage, he always felt a sense of unease, a fear of sudden attack, even when smiling, a hint of wariness lingered. Even when facing Hundred Charm Demoness, his master's wife with mid Tribulation stage cultivation, he remained cautious. This was one of the reasons he dared not target the Myriad Flower Pavilion with his teleportation.

Now, facing the Hundred Charm Demoness again, he felt at ease. As he looked her over, the thought suddenly popped into his head that she was merely Tribulation Transcendence stage cultivator. Although his cultivation level was far below hers, he no longer considered her a threat who could take his life at any moment. For the first time, he didn't keep his Divine Sense connected to the golden bead when facing Tribulation Transcendence stage cultivator, always ready to flee.

He pondered this in secret and figured out the reason. This trip to the Demon Ghost Domain had greatly broadened his horizons. After learning that there were many more top-tier beings in the Cultivation World, the Tribulation Transcendence stage was indeed nothing in his eyes. Moreover, after demonstrating the power of the Azure Flame, he was confident that it wouldn't be so easy for a Tribulation Transcendence stage expert to take his life. If he couldn't win, escaping shouldn't be a problem. He guessed that was the source of his confidence.

The Hundred Charm Demoness's surprised gaze returned to a smile. Unusually, she didn't approach or bother him. Instead, she gracefully reclined on the chaise lounge, her alluring figure partially revealed, propping her head up with one hand. She said seductively, "I received intelligence that you went to the Demon Ghost Domain with the heads of the Four Great Families. Hmm! You certainly have guts, daring to venture into the Demon Ghost Domain just five people. Judging from your appearance, what did you gain there?"

"Master's wife is indeed well-informed; you even knew about such a secret matter." Yue Qianchou found a chair and sat down, shaking his head and laughing, "I wouldn't say I gained anything, but I did almost lose my life. By the way, Master's wife, is there any movement in the Cultivation World right now?"

Seeing that he didn't want to talk about the Demon Ghost Domain, Hundred Charm Demoness glared at him with her bright eyes, then yawned lazily and said, "The commotion you're looking for is a bit much, but it won't be big. I'm afraid you'll be disappointed."

Yue Qianchou immediately frowned and asked, "How can the commotion be considered small?"

The Hundred Charm Demoness slowly closed her seductive eyes, her luscious red lips parting slightly as she spoke, "Following the map you provided, Righteous and Demonic paths discovered the hiding place of the Yan family father and son. They were indeed taken aback by the strength on that island, and most of the people they sent to investigate were lost. Given the immense threat posed by the Yan family father and son, the Righteous and Demonic paths originally intended to join forces to eliminate them. However, internal disputes arose within the Demonic Path's Myriad Demon Palace, causing them to hesitate to act, which resulted in Fu Xian Island also being unable to take action."

"Master's wife, what exactly is going on? Does the Myriad Demon Palace intend to protect the Yan family father and son?" Yue Qianchou asked in a deep voice.

Hundred Charm Demoness, her eyes still closed, shook her head and said, "The Myriad Demon Palace originally planned to be wiped out together with the Righteous Path. Later, someone suggested that the previous palace master, Yan Bugui's father, should personally go and recruit Yan Bugui back to the Myriad Demon Palace. You should know that Yan Bugui's strength is not weak now. If we can recruit Yan Bugui, the Myriad Demon Palace will essentially take over his strength. At that time, the position of Fu Xian Island as the number one sect in the Cultivation World will probably be taken over by the Myriad Demon Palace. This suggestion immediately made the entire Myriad Demon Palace excited. Recently, the Myriad Demon Palace has been sending people to various demonic sects to act as envoys."

"A lobbyist?" Yue Qianchou frowned thoughtfully. "What do you mean?"

"It's very simple." Hundred Charm Demoness opened her alluring eyes and smiled, "The Myriad Demon Palace's explanation is that the Black Society has always targeted the Righteous Path and has never attacked the demonic path. Moreover, the Righteous Path has always been one step ahead of the demonic path. If the Myriad Demon Palace could take over the power in Yan Bugui's hands, the demonic path might be able to turn the Righteous Path and gain the upper hand. This reason did indeed tempt the entire demonic path. However, nothing stays hidden forever. After the Righteous Path, which had prepared to attack, learned of this, they dared not act rashly. Yan Bugui's strength was not weak to begin with, and an attack would require a great deal of effort, especially since Fu Xian Island would definitely have to take the lead. If the demonic path were to turn against them at this time, even Fu Xian Island would not be able to withstand the consequences. Thus, the current stalemate has occurred, with Yan Bugui and his son safe and sound, and the commotion you wanted has not materialized."

"The Black Society always targets the Righteous Path? Hmph!" Yue Qianchou muttered to himself, his eyes narrowing slightly as he looked out the window. He suddenly turned back and said, "Master's wife, you must have information and news about the various sects of the demonic path here? Could you give me a copy?"

The Hundred Charm Demoness smiled meaningfully and asked, "What do you want to do?"

"Isn't the Myriad Demon Palace lobbying everywhere? I think they're so desperate to be the best in the world that it's not that easy to become the best in the world." Yue Qianchou sneered, "It's time for the various demonic sects to put pressure on the Myriad Demon Palace."

"Hehe! I knew you little fox wouldn't behave yourself." Hundred Charm Demoness giggled seductively. She sat up and pulled a small jade tablet from between her full breasts through her close-fitting bodice, tossing it to Yue Qianchou.

Yue Qianchou caught the jade tablet, feeling its warmth. He stared in astonishment at the other woman's fullness, momentarily lost in thought. Damn it! This mistress is amazing, she actually put the thing there!
