Mu Yuan gathered his headscarf to cover most of his face, but due to his tall figure, he was especially conspicuous in the group of women. Of course, he also spontaneously picked up the burden of leading the group and after parting the curtain, froze on the spot.

At the moment, the cold chill and low light revealed that they were standing on a high mountain.

The blue sky was cloudless and the wind was bitter.

To set the scene, other than the wind and the blue sky, they were surrounded by greenery and there was a rushing waterfall on the peak not too far away. What was even more amazing was that periodically there were even birds flying in the sky. He was momentarily dumbfounded.

Is this really the site of the Demon Sect?

Apparently, he was not the only one who was surprised, and there were a lot of sighs suddenly sounding behind him.

In the next second, Mu Yuan was pushed by the coachman and thrown off the car. He rolled around on the ground before he looked at the coachman bitterly and greeted the eighteenth generation of his ancestors in his heart.

At this time, an old man with white hair and beard came over, saw this scene, and reprimanded, “Is this how you do your job? These people are dedicated to his lordship. How can you throw them?”

Mu Yuan was shocked, are they really going to join a harem?

The old man stepped forward, just stretched out his hand to help him, and when he saw his appearance, he threw him out again: “This thing… is too ugly.”

Mu Yuan rolled around again, “I’m going to mess you up.” (1)

Hold back, he has to hold back! He is now a fallen tiger, it is not too late to come back and level this thieves’ den.

They were taken to a large hall with three large words “Haoqiong Hall” written on the plaque. Mu Yuan looked around. Although the palace was very large, the decorations were sparse. Only the main seat at the forefront was slightly more elegant.

They all knelt on the ground together, and the old man looked at the women one by one, “This one can stay, this one is okay…”

When he walked in front of Mu Yu’an, he didn’t even look at the charity, and directly ordered: “Throw this one to Gui Laohu.” (2)

Looking to his side, he saw the scarred woman. The old man frowned and said, “This one goes to Gui Laohu also. I say, what’s going on with you, don’t you look before you catch them? If his lordship is angry, can you afford it!”

The coachman lowered his head, “The Fengyang Sect came after her, so I didn’t look carefully.”

Mu Yuan, the scarred woman, and several plain-looking people, were divided to one side. There was a clear line separating them. On this side of the line they were ugly and plain, on the other side they were beautiful.

Mu Yuan knelt on his knees for a while.

They were starting to get sore, but he still looked opposite him at the other [group] of women. Their expressions were more painful than his. He slowly raised his hand and said to the old man, “Brother, can you let us take a rest? You see how beautiful they are, in case they suffer, his lordship will have to punish you for your harsh treatment of these beauties.”

The old man frowned slightly and said, “That does make sense, then everyone, get up.”

The beauties all looked at Mu Yuan one by one as they were granted amnesty. A few of the timid ones were crying like tear drops on a pear blossom.

As soon as Mu Yuan was about to get up, he was held down by the old man. “You now belong to Gui Laohu, so let’s practice kneeling first. There will be more opportunities for you to kneel in the future.”

Mu Yuan looked at him in panic, ” Who is Gui Laohu?”

As soon as the words came out, a loud voice rang out from the doorway “It’s me!”

A middle-aged woman with a fat body and an oily face walked in, but her steps were light, her small eyes surveyed the room before finally landing on Mu Yuan and others.

She cursed and said, “Hey, Old Man Jiao, you went and caught so many people behind my back. They won’t all fit in the kitchen.”

Mu Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly: the kitchen?

The old man named Jiao laughed bluntly, “Recently several people have joined our Demon Sect. Those people have no qualifications yet, they haven even reached Opening Qi stage (3) and cannot refrain from eating. Naturally, we have to trouble you and this is also to give you some additional manpower.”

Gui Laohu chuckled and asked, “You have captured so many people, does his lordship know about this?

Old man Jiao smiled shyly “I’m not afraid if he knows. His lordship is always alone and constantly has to clean up after all those little devils every day. He also has to deal with Fengyang Sect and is too busy to find a companion. We are only doing this for the good of his lordship.”

Gui Laohu nodded and stopped talking nonsense, he looked at Mu Yuan and the others, “It’s a pity that since you can’t become a dao companion with his lordship, you can only come cook with this old lady.”

Mu Yuan’s eyes widened and shockingly forgot that he was a fish on a chopping block. He blurted out, “I don’t cook!”

Gui Laohu’s eyes locked onto him, “Then what do you want to do?”

Mu Yuan glared back at her, thinking that he had always lived a luxurious life since he was a child. Who doesn’t know that he is the big baby of the Mu family, and when he has been in a hellish place like a kitchen!

He thought for a while, took a deep breath, and said, “I can bear the pain and be your boss’s Dao companion!”

When the time comes, this so-called Demon lord may see his ugly appearance and be so scared that he sends him away!

But his words sounded like a fool’s errand to others.

Snickers were heard all around the room and the scarred woman couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

Gui Laohu walked up to him and looked him up and down, “It is important for people to have some self-awareness.”

“People are the same regardless of high or low birth, or if they are beautiful or ugly.” Mu Yuan shot back without any shame. He saw the woman stretch her hand to the side, who knows where it came from but a rabbit was sucked to her hands using internal force. She then pinched the rabbit to death with one hand, looking at him provocatively.

Mu Yuan, “…”

He threw himself on his knees, “Gui Laohu, I think this matter can still be discussed.”

Gui Laohu threw the dead rabbit to him, “Tonight we will eat rabbit. Come with me, stop talking about pipe dreams.”

Several people got up and walked behind them with their heads hanging. The scarred woman poked Mu Yuan and asked quietly, “Do you really think you can be the devil’s dao companion?”

“Don’t believe me? I am a great beauty and the number of people chasing after me would be lined up from this mountain to the next.

I’m also a beautiful woman anyhow, and people who chase me have lined up from this mountain to that mountain.” Mu Yuan was angry in his heart, and his words were uninhibited.

The scarred woman laughed at him, “Chasing after you to kill you.”

Mu Yuan, “Humph.”

There were a total of eight people, and they walked out of the hall, only to find that the courtyard outside was even wider. How long would it take to walk?

Mu Yuan walked, suddenly feeling that in this world he needs to learn some qinggong techniques or something, otherwise he would be exhausted to death with all the walking.

When they arrived at the gate, a red glow floated across the sky, so fast that it was almost impossible to catch even a trace. There was a familiar bird cry and in an instant he felt a suffocating air attack and his chest began to hurt. However, it only lasted for a few seconds before disappearing, but he felt like his internal organs had been pounded.

He clutched his chest and looked back to see a tall man standing suddenly in front of the hall. He was dressed in black with golden flying birds embroidered on the hem and sides. His long hair was not tied and was scattered behind him, and a powerful aura emitted from him as he stood there.

It was a pity that he couldn’t see the front, it was a killer from the back.

He waited for a moment and saw the man turning his head slightly, only then could he get a good look at the front. He suddenly received a knock to his head.

“Ouch! Who did that!”

He turned his head reflexively to curse, seeing Gui Laohu, and blinked: “Who did that– send yourself to me–”

“It’s your aunt, grandma, me!” Gui Laohu grabbed him by his ears, “Who are you covering your chest for? I’m telling you, don’t even think about our Lord, or you won’t even know how you died! Do you hear me?”

“Hey.”

Footnotes:

Here is the original swear words: 这“我去……”你妈了个巴子!I’m not sure if this is a name, a title, or a nickname. I’ve not read that far ahead yet, so for now it’s gonna be a name until I read otherwise. I’ll come back and change it if it’s something else. So per the author, they just made up a lot of the cultivation stuff. Since they don’t really focus too much on the cultivation, I’m just going to be super general about it and make it as consistent as possible. To quote the author: If you don’t like it, please wave your sleeve and don’t leave a cloud.
