Transmigration After Becoming Love Saint

Chapter 762 - 240: Forming Ties with Piao Miaoxu_3

"And me? After all, I am Saint Dongfang Mu. How could I deceive anyone? Moreover, in terms of identity, I am quite a match for her."

Shuo Wuji, upon hearing this, realized that the Holy Master was indeed ruthless. This woman’s deception is too cruel when it comes to other women. If Dragon Girl Ao Qing were to learn about this relationship and find out that she had married her Master’s former lover, what kind of blow would she suffer?

"No wonder Ao Qing was so grateful to you that day," Shuo Wuji said. "It turns out the Palace Master gave her that idea..."

"It’s that Old Dragon King..." Piao Miaoxu frowned slightly. "Old dragons are cunning. He probably noticed something, which is why he has been opposing it..."

"The Old Dragon King of Dongling Sea Dragon Palace has lived a very long time," Shuo Wuji pondered. "That old creature is powerful and has experienced countless years of changes in the Nine Provinces. Indeed, he is formidable. But the Holy Master..."

"What about the others? How do you plan to deal with them?"

"Nanrong Biyou has already been taken care of."

"Mu Hongyuan was naturally dealt with using the same method," Piao Miaoxu said. "She has a beloved disciple named Gu Yuqing. Heh, it’s interesting because Gu Yuqing also had a rather special experience with that bastard. Now, to avoid getting involved between her Master and Wang Mu, she wanders the Mortal World, enduring all kinds of lovesick torture."

"However, Gu Yuqing is aware of Dongfang Mu’s identity, so making her marry him is slightly challenging, but not impossible."

"Once Mu Hongyuan exits seclusion and undergoes her Crossing Tribulation, learning that Dongfang Mu, that bastard, has married her disciple, she will undoubtedly be infuriated enough to ascend."

"..." Shuo Wuji.

"What about the remaining two?"

"The Dan King Sect of Qianzhou is a bit more troublesome," Piao Miaoxu said, elaborating her plans through a slow transmission. "Mo Xilan is a foolishly infatuated woman, and such women often accept everything about the man they love. Moreover, after that bastard returned, he even used himself as a medicinal catalyst to help Mo Xilan comprehend the Great Taoist way. Although the memories I probed about the process aren’t very clear, this experience must have made her completely devoted to him."

"Then..."

"But there is a way," Piao Miaoxu continued unhurriedly. "There’s only one way to make a lovesick woman lose hope."

"What way?"

"There is no greater sorrow than a heart that has died."

"..." Shuo Wuji.

"When a person dies, everything goes with them. Naturally, she will lose all hope and ascend, leaving this world."

"The same applies to Yan Qingwu on Gu Yun Mountain."

"By then, all I need to do is orchestrate a self-immolation drama," Piao Miaoxu said. "For instance, I could pretend to die while practicing her Seven Emotions True Fire Scripture, or any other method of dying will suffice."

"This might even trigger a great battle between them." Piao Miaoxu’s mouth curved slightly. "I can just sit back and reap the benefits. Of course, the safest outcome would be for them to ascend to the Upper Realm individually."

"..." Shuo Wuji.

This entire plan specifically targets Dongfang Mu’s close confidantes. If I were a woman, I probably couldn’t bear it either, Shuo Wuji thought.

"Holy Master... what if... we could just kill Dongfang Mu directly?" Shuo Wuji asked.

"That would naturally be best," Piao Miaoxu said, "but I have a slightly bad premonition."

"Why?"

"In that bastard’s memories..." Piao Miaoxu frowned slightly. "There are even more vague parts, very subtle... Logically, after I performed the Ten Thousand Demons Returning to the Ancestor Technique, I should have probed all his memories. There shouldn’t be anything vague. This might mean... these are memories that have nothing to do with Dongfang Mu."

"Unrelated?"

"In short, that bastard..." Piao Miaoxu pondered, "has another side that I don’t know about..."

Shuo Wuji was startled. Impossible, right?

"So, I believe that if we try to kill him directly using this opportunity, he might find a way to resolve it..."

"Why not try first and see?"

"Naturally..."

「Qianzhou, Heavenly Control Workshop.」

The situation seems to be getting more and more dire... Wang Mu thought while gathering information about Dongfang Mu in the workshop.

Reforming the Nine Provinces Demon Cultivators indeed seems like something the Saints Association would do... Staging all this... to enhance his reputation... and gather such a massive force around himself... He clearly has ill intentions. How could Ao Qing even agree to it?

Wang Mu didn’t quite understand, though he vaguely guessed something.

Could it be that she’s trying to mess with me? Wang Mu mused. Piao Miaoxu wouldn’t actually think Ao Qing is one of my partners and is trying to humiliate me this way, would she? How is that possible? If you, Piao Miaoxu, have the guts, go and try to marry those main heroines! If you could truly impersonate me and deceive Nanrong Biyou and Mu Hongyuan, *that* would be a real humiliation! Ao Qing is insignificant; I have no feelings for her. She means nothing to me, so there’s no sense of humiliation at all... But if this continues, it feels like things are heading in a bad direction. Piao Miaoxu has already used my identity to gather such an enormous force and has even reformed the Nine Provinces Demon Cultivators. Coupled with her status as a Saint, her prestige is incredibly high. If she genuinely comes after me, even with the Immortal Cloud Kun’s protection, one side will inevitably suffer heavy losses...

Wang Mu looked at the Moon God beside him, who was curiously examining various items in the workshop.

If I could confront Piao Miaoxu alone... perhaps arrange an ’accidental’ encounter... and take her down first...

"Why are you looking at me?" the Moon God asked, holding a statue carved from Spirit Stone. It was a likeness of Dongfang Mu. Indeed, Dongfang Mu had become so popular that even workshops were carving his statues from Spirit Stones to sell as souvenirs.

"I get it, I get it!" The Moon God smiled, her eyes narrowing. "Well, this Dongfang Mu is quite handsome... Since you want to form a connection with him, let me warn you: once a bond is formed, it won’t be so easy to break."

"When the time comes, you two..." As she spoke, the Moon God suddenly became excited.

"Wouldn’t killing her dissolve the bond?" Wang Mu said.

"You have a grudge against him? Although I dislike his philandering ways, you’re hardly any better," the Moon God pursed her lips. "You made me a promise, and you must keep it. Otherwise, beware of your great love tribulation!"

"Let’s form the bond first," Wang Mu said.

I must deal with Piao Miaoxu. I can’t let her continue like this... Otherwise, who knows what else might happen...
