The Mingxiao Conference was a grand event held once every century in the Mingxiao Continent, initiated by the Four Great Families and hosted in rotation by one Sect, three Factions, and four Schools.

Its purpose was to exchange cultivation experiences, spar, and give the younger generation of cultivators a chance to showcase themselves.

Adding to the fact that many sects and families would take this opportunity to recruit disciples and enshrine experts, almost no one in the cultivation world would willingly miss this grand gathering.

This year’s Mingxiao Conference was hosted by the Sword Sect.

The Dragon Clan Leader called Ao Ruize over directly: “This is your first year as the Young Clan Leader of the Dragon Clan. There are many suspicions about you both inside and outside the clan right now. So, go to this Mingxiao Conference. I hope you will perform outstandingly and not disgrace the prestige of the Dragon Clan.”

Ao Ruize had been wanting to go out for a walk and see if he could find his wife.

So hearing this, he simply said: “Please rest assured, Clan Leader. I know what I’m doing.”

Then the entire Dragon Clan territory sprang into action.

Because naturally, Ao Ruize wasn’t the only one going to attend this conference.

A small half of the Dragon Clan was mobilized.

So on the day of departure, as hundreds of Dragon Royal Guards threw their jade tablets into the air in unison, dazzling white lights flashed. In the next second, hundreds of entirely emerald-green flying ships appeared above everyone’s heads, almost blotting out the sky and sun.

The Milk Dumpling (System) couldn’t help but say: “This scene is kind of cool!”

Then Ao Ruize took Long Jingdan and others onto his exclusive flying ship.

The area of the Mingxiao Continent was thousands of times larger than Earth in the previous world. So even with the flying ships’ speed, it still took them a full five days to reach the Sword Sect.

When they arrived, the vast majority of sects and families were already there.

Even the Sword Sect, which occupied tens of millions of mu of land, had become a sea of cultivators at this moment.

The Milk Dumpling instantly stopped worrying about their mission. Relying on the abundant spiritual energy of the cultivation world, the speed at which it absorbed spiritual energy barely kept up with the consumption required to leave Ao Ruize’s sea of consciousness.

It decisively drilled out of Ao Ruize’s sea of consciousness and rushed straight into the market.

Ao Ruize thought for a moment, then casually found an excuse to follow.

Because surely many sects and families would come to visit the Dragon Clan later, and he didn’t want to be dragged into receiving guests.

But soon he regretted it, because the market was packed with people, and it was a hot day, so the smell can be imagined.

Most importantly, someone shouted: “The people from the Hehuan Sect (Joyous Union Sect) have arrived.”

The crowd instantly surged even more violently.

Then Ao Ruize was squeezed directly onto the main road by the tide of people.

Following beside him was the Milk Dumpling.

Of course, the Milk Dumpling had actively joined in the fun.

“The legendary Hehuan Sect, huh? Have to take a good look at this.”

Almost at the same time, other people’s voices also rang out.

“I heard the Hehuan Sect recruited a new batch of disciples a while ago. Each one is more outstanding than the last, so much so that half of the Hehuan Sect’s Hundred Beauties List was directly replaced?”

“The Hehuan Sect disciples should all be here this year. I want to see just how capable the people who can push down my beloved Beauties Xibai and Chongguang are?”

“Eh, how come I heard that the reason half the Hehuan Sect’s Hundred Beauties List changed at once is because the Sect Master felt the disciples were too lazy and threw them all into a secret realm? When they came out, they were all a size thicker…”

“…You mean, my delicate, fair-skinned, and beautiful Xibai and Chongguang might have turned into muscle men rougher than me?”

But very quickly, other voices followed: “…Just a bunch of whores ridden by thousands and pillowed by ten thousands. Is it necessary to be this excited?”

“Exactly.”

Obviously, they weren’t interested in any Hehuan Sect. They had also been squeezed over by the crowd, so naturally, they weren’t very happy.

However, hearing these words, the others didn’t show even a hint of anger.

First, because what these people said was essentially true.

The reason the Hehuan Sect could stand on equal footing with the Four Great Families and the one Sect, three Factions, and four Schools was mainly due to their cultivation methods that involved plucking yang to replenish yin, plucking yin to replenish yang, or even plucking yang to replenish yang.

This meant that all year round, they were either on the way to seduce men and women or in the beds of men and women.

Therefore, the one Sect, three Factions, and four Schools all disdained being mentioned in the same breath as the Hehuan Sect.

But they also never deliberately targeted the Hehuan Sect.

After all, if you called the Hehuan Sect a demonic path, during the Demon Race invasion back then, they were one of the main forces resisting the demons, and their casualties were even heavier than those of the righteous sects and families.

If you called them righteous, over these tens of thousands of years, who knows how many disciples of the righteous path they had corrupted.

Second, because the people from the Hehuan Sect had arrived.

Above the sky, hundreds of platinum-colored flying ships were riding the wind. Gauze fluttered on the ships, and faintly visible were beauties leaning on the windowsills, either waving at them or smiling with pursed lips.

In an instant, many people’s eyes went straight.

And on the deck of the leading ship, which was nearly a hundred meters long, stood the Sect Master of the Hehuan Sect and a group of elders.

Unlike the Dragon Clan elders who were often full of wrinkles and bearded, looking around, this group of Hehuan Sect elders were all handsome men and beautiful women who looked incredibly young. Even those with beards only had the most decent goatees, paired with those chiseled faces—

Who knows how many female cultivators and even male cultivators subconsciously swallowed their saliva.

“So there’s a reason why the Hehuan Sect can stand alongside the major sects.”

Just for these faces, they would be willing to let them play for free.

Ao Ruize, however, looked straight up at the leader, the Hehuan Sect Master—Fu Mu.

He was a young man who looked only in his early twenties. Like the Hehuan Sect elders, he also wore a snow-white robe. The gold edges of the robe hem shone brilliantly in the sunlight, but even so, it couldn’t overshadow his skin that was like congealed fat.

Looking up further, he wore a purple-gold crown. Seen from the side, his eyes were like phoenixes, his nose bridge high, his lips as if painted… making one unreasonably want to taste a bit.

Most importantly—

In the next second, the Milk Dumpling’s voice rang out first: “…Boo hoo hoo, I’ve decided, he is my new wife!!”

Ao Ruize, who suddenly felt a bit hot but hadn’t had time to loosen his collar yet: “…”

Isn’t this a coincidence?

What could Ao Ruize say?

He could only say: “Your taste has always been as good as mine.”

Milk Dumpling: “…”

Intuition told it something was wrong.

But soon, it ignored Ao Ruize.

Because just at this moment, as if sensing something, Fu Mu on the flying ship suddenly turned his head and looked towards them.

Although after pausing for a few seconds, he withdrew his gaze again.

The Milk Dumpling fainted on the spot: “My wife looked at me.”

“My wife’s front face is actually even better looking than his side profile.”

“As expected of my wife.”

But in the next second, other people’s voices rang out: “Look at them posturing and flirting, I’m afraid they are more skilled than the prostitutes in the brothels.”

“Their robes are open so wide; even the widowers in our village aren’t as slutty as them.”

Hearing this, the Milk Dumpling’s two fat ears instantly stood up.

Out of anger.

How can a beauty’s actions be called posturing? How can it be called loose?

And just opening the collar is slutty?

Then what about you guys going topless as soon as it gets hot? Selling meat?

Everyone else also turned their heads in unison to look at the few people who spoke.

Contrasted with their previous indifference, it perfectly proved what it meant for one’s values to follow one’s senses (appearance).

Meeting their angry expressions, those few people were directly frightened, and then they reacted.

“What, did we say something wrong?”

“Do you guys really treat that bunch of whores as treasures?”

“I’m afraid the men and women they’ve slept with are more than the meals your old mothers have eaten. So instead of having time to care about them, you might as well care more about your old mothers. After all, they might not necessarily fancy your faces, but your old mothers definitely won’t disdain you.”

Hearing this, the others present were genuinely angry: “If the people of the Hehuan Sect are all a bunch of whores, then what are you, things worse than whores?”

“The Hehuan Sect is a bit open, but at least everything they do is consensual. It’s better than those big families and sects where every now and then a disciple forcefully snatches a civilian girl on the street.”

“Heh, what kind of man are you being sarcastic here? If you have the guts, go curse in front of the Hehuan Sect people?”

“Wait, you are so hostile towards the Hehuan Sect, could it be because you tried to recommend yourselves for their pillows but were rejected, so you hold a grudge?”

“—After all, looking like dogs like you do, who would fancy you.”

“You—”

The Milk Dumpling, however, was stunned on the spot.

Because it just realized something.

Fact: Fu Mu is the Sect Master of the Hehuan Sect, and the Hehuan Sect’s cultivation method is mainly various kinds of plucking and replenishing—Conclusion: The number of guests his wife has entertained is definitely greater than the number of days since its birth.

Thinking of this, the Milk Dumpling choked with sobs: “I’m green (cuckolded) again!”

However, this time, Ao Ruize was very calm.

Because he already had experience.

Most importantly—

In this world, the identity his wife chose for himself was actually the Sect Master of the Hehuan Sect who liked to flirt with men everywhere… Did that mean his wife was planning to take the initiative to flirt with… and pluck him?

Thinking of this, Ao Ruize suddenly felt even hotter, and lost the mood to continue wandering.

So after the Hehuan Sect’s fleet disappeared from their sight, he went straight back to the Dragon Clan’s temporary residence, waiting for his wife to come find him.

But unexpectedly, one day passed, two days passed, three days passed… Fu Mu still didn’t come to find him.

Ao Ruize, who had indeed been called over by the Dragon Clan Leader to receive guests for two days: “…”

Being a monk but not hitting the bell, is this appropriate?

Meanwhile, in the Hehuan Sect’s temporary residence, Fu Mu, sitting high at the head of the main hall, instructed for the fourth time: “Tell those disciples to behave themselves for this Sect Master. I don’t want to be approached by those big families and sects again claiming our disciples corrupted another one of their young talents.”

Hearing this, although the elders below were reluctant, they could only say: “Yes.”
