Villain Cultivator

Chapter 749 – Restoration of Mao Manor, Surprise Cross-server Tournament

A day later, Miaomiao finished rebuilding his cement house from scratch. He hadn't painted the wall or covered it with wallpapers yet, but the new house was enough for a family of 10 to settle in.

There was no electricity or water system, which made it simple to build.

Miaomiao wiped his sweat and admired his work. Then, he remembered something that the house lacked.

"I forgot about the toilets, bathrooms, and drainage. Meh, like I need those. I haven't taken a shit or piss for years."

He sat on the cold hard cement floor and converted his Life Essence into blood and wood element. Fibers of wood came out of Miaomiao's finger and slowly formed a wooden bed.

While Miaomiao was creating furniture for his new home, a pair of 9th-stage cultivators circled over the destroyed Pirate Hunter City. He ignored them and minded his business.

Several minutes later, they came down and approached the ruined Mao Clan's manor. They barged into Miaomiao's house and looked around.

Fortunately, Liu Guang and Xiong Zhenzhen went out to salvage valuable items. As for Chase, he visited the city and cultivated in seclusion.

Without anyone but Miaomiao, the two cultivators found Miaomiao, who was in the middle of crafting a wooden bed with his elemental essence.

"Hey, brat! Where is Mao Miaomiao?!"

Miaomiao furrowed his brows and glanced at the two cultivators. One of them was an elder while the other one was a bare-chested young man with countless tattoos. Both of them hung the Wu Token on their belts.

Noticing that the young man rudely barged into his house and yelled at him, Miaomiao was annoyed.

"Who's asking?" Miaomiao gave him one more chance as he knew the guy.

"Your father!"

As soon as the young man said that, Miaomiao spread his grey wings and his primary essence switched into death essence and twilight essence.

A butterfly emerged from Miaomiao's shadow and latched onto the young man's leg. It bit him.

As soon as the butterfly bit the young man, his legs and lower torso were petrified.

SNAP

Miaomiao snapped his finger and stopped the spread of his power. He stopped tinkering with his furniture and faced the two intruders.

"Let me guess. Are you Gan Xingba?"

The half-petrified man bellowed, "Release me, you scum! How dare you attack me, the Navy General of Wu Empire!?"

The elder next to the young general glanced at the stoned legs and torso of his colleague. He cupped his fist and lowered his head.

"My name is Ding Feng. I'm Deputy Grand General of Wu Empire. We're searching for Lord Mao Miaomiao at the moment, and we notice that you're occupying the former Mao Clan's residence as your new home. May we know your name and why you are taking over this place, sir?"

​ Ding Feng, the elder, didn't even ask Miaomiao to release or forgive his colleague. He wanted to confirm who he was dealing with.

"I'm the man that you've been searching for, and this is my house. I'm rebuilding my house in my clan's territory. You got a problem?"

"I-I see. We indeed are blind. Please forgive us for the insolence," Ding Feng bowed again. Despite his politeness, he seemed delighted.

Miaomiao liked the old man. He snapped his finger again, and the grey butterfly let Gan Xingba go. It sank back into Miaomiao's extended shadow and vanished. As for Miaomiao's wings, they reverted to black and white wing.

Using grey wing form all the time was bad for his hygiene. After all, Twilight Essence attracted germs, bacteria, and parasites as they were the mixed energy between Life and Death Essence.

After regaining his freedom, Gan Xingba roared. He gathered his Qi into his fist and punched at Miaomiao.

Miaomiao rolled his eyes. He caught Gan Xingba's fist with one hand while the other hand stabbed into the latter's chest. Then, Miaomiao gently broke Gan Xingba's ribcages and held on to the spinal cord.

"Pipe it down. If you don't stop, I'll kill you for real, pirate."

"BASTARD! LET ME GO!!"

"You have the brain of a peanut, Xingba. I said I'm Mao Miaomiao, the dude that you're looking for. Now that you know I'm Mao Miaomiao, you're still attacking me?"

"YOU'RE DEAD!"

Miaomiao's shoulders drooped, and he looked at Ding Feng, "How did this idiot become a general?"

Ding Feng dryly laughed, "Most of our immortals were killed, so we promoted new blood to temporarily take their places."

Miaomiao facepalmed and sighed. He pulled his hand out of Gan Xingba's chest and fed him a pink pill. Then, he gently punched Xingba's Adam's apple.

Gan Xingba fell unconscious, but his chest instantly stopped bleeding. It showed that he had the strength to earn the title of a kingdom's general.

The gender-swap pill took effect. The bare-chested and tattooed young man turned into a bare-chested woman with a healthy ample chest. Her tanned skin and tattoos highlighted her refined skin, which attracted the eyes of both Miaomiao and Ding Feng.

Ding Feng coughed and changed the subject.

"Lord Mao. We're here to invite you to our capital city. Your father and your clan members are also there."

Miaomiao nodded. He stopped ogling Gan Xingba and sat on his unfinished bed, "How was the battle? I saw warships from Shu Han yesterday. They were retreating south. Did you win?"

Ding Feng shook his head, "Rather than calling it a victory, we were defeated."

"How so?"

"His Majesty passed away, and most of our immortals died. We're left with a crippled army and countless refugees from various cities."

Ding Feng told Miaomiao the result and the detail of the war. Shu Han suddenly attacked every city of the Wu Empire, but USW refused to send reinforcement. In the end, most of their combat forces retreated to Huiji and fought there, which resulted in heavy casualties on both sides.

Without the emperor, they needed to crown the new emperor to stabilize their country. However, there was a problem. The officials split into two factions and competed to enthrone their favorite prince. It became a fight between Sun Wukong and Sun Ce.

"That's where you came in, Lord Mao. The deceased emperor has left a will. He planned to betroth the first princess Her Highness Sun Yun to you as a reward for defeating the monster army. Your position in the court is not small, and you can help us dissolve the conflict between the two princes."

Miaomiao scratched his head. Something didn't add up.

The Sun Wukong that Miaomiao knew didn't like politics. He was arrogant, but he didn't like sitting around. Therefore, fighting for the throne was weird.

"Did Sun Wukong say that he wanted to be an emperor?"

"Err, no. He never said anything after the emperor died."

"So, was the entire farce started by the surviving officials in your court?"

"Something like that."

"Cool. Then, do me a favor. Kill all those motherfuckers and leave behind the officers that didn't participate in this mess."

"W-What?"

"Also, it's better for me not to show up and claim that I'm the first princess' fiancé being. If I go there now, some greedy bastards might show up and attempt to enthrone me as a figurehead emperor or something similar. It will worsen the situation in your court. My advice is – Purge all those greedy motherfuckers that try to enthrone Sun Wukong or Sun Ce without their consent. It's the right time to wipe the chess board clean for once and start over, you know."

"I-I see."

Miaomiao stood up. He pointed at Gan Xingba, "Secondly, get this asshole a husband. You can fuck her if you want. I already have too many wives."

"…"

.

Ding Feng and Miaomiao chatted for hours. Soon, Ding Feng excused himself and carried Gan Xingba away.

Miaomiao resumed his task, crafting more furniture for his wives and himself. While he was at it, he contemplated what Ding Feng had told him.

So far, Mao Shan, Mao Cheng, Tang Ting, and the others were fine as they left the manor early. Still, Miaomiao was unsatisfied with them as they left him alone with a few bodyguards instead of asking him to come out from the seclusion early.

On another note, Devil was heartless. She ignored Sun Jian's plea and launched a surprise full-scale attack on Shu Han's territory instead.

Sima Yi and several protagonists in the past were also missing during the war. Miaomiao was wondering where Ma Moxi, Xie Tian, Lu Fengxian, and the other guys were at.

.

Several days passed by, and Miaomiao remained at the Mao Clan's manor.

The buildings were restored as new, and the courtyards were repaired. The walls and gardens were restored, and lives returned to the manor.

Although the current residents of this manor consisted of Miaomiao, Liu Guang, Xiong Zhenzhen, and Chase, they were not lonely or bored. Chase was always busy cultivating and practicing his new techniques while Miaomiao and the girls were never bored of their indoor sports activities.

Players and people that got stuck in the game never bothered with Miaomiao for an unknown reason. They seemed to be obsessed with an event, and they flew south, following Shu Han's guys. Some went north to join forces with Devil, but they were the minority.

But today, things changed.

DING

<Attention, cultivators. Today is the day of the grand event. If you have registered on the tournament, please check your belongings, items, and gears. The event will start in 30 minutes.>

<Participants of the Immortal Tournament, please confirm your status with the Grand League Banner.>

<Participants of the Guild War, please make sure all your guild members are online and confirm your status with the Guild War Banner.>

<Participants of the Individual Tournament, please confirm your status with the game menu.>

'Huh?'

Miaomiao narrowed his eyes and stopped having sex. He hurried and put on his clothes. He also told the girls to be prepared for anything.

The girls sobered and put on their battle gears. They looked at Miaomiao, waiting for his next order.

But before they could do anything, a magic circle appeared under Miaomiao's feet.

WHOOSH

Just like that, the magic circle teleported Miaomiao away!

.

WHOOSH

Everything turned dark for a moment before Miaomiao could see everything again. He found himself in a dark enclosed room with no window or door.

Around him, Miaomiao found several cultivators and strangers. However, all of them were immortals.

Among them, he noticed familiar faces.

"Moxi?"

"Miaomiao?"

Miaomiao recognized Ma Moxi. The latter also remembered him.
