Villain Cultivator - Chapter 757: New Chess Pieces To The Game

‘Superhuman?’

Miaomiao frowned, wondering what Pan Mei and Pangu were plotting.

<It has been four months since Pangu Online 2 is opening for service, and we have over a billion active accounts and countless characters in our game. I’m sure some of you have already learned about the rumor on social media and found the viral clips of the superhuman sighting.>

“Hou?”

As Miaomiao couldn’t access the other world’s social media and internet, he lacked this part of the information. He was curious about what Pan Mei was talking about.

<As our company did in the first franchise, we have implemented a system that can increase your physical ability through the game. Players who never worked out in real life and get into shape. Athletes can improve their physique, and elders with sickly bodies can get back to health! Furthermore, if you’re using our exclusive game capsule, you can even obtain immortality! Of course, your in-game character plays a major role in your ascension!>

Miaomiao was surprised that Pan Mei openly seduced the players to play the game. He was curious why they were so adamant about giving immortality to players.

Were they gathering luck from the players?

Were they amassing forces?

Whatever they were trying to do, everything seemed futile. Their plans were doomed to fail no matter how thorough their schemes were.

Gathering forces? What could mortals do against gods?

Gathering luck? In Mu-Nyang’s universe? That cat could steal the luck back on a whim.

Killing Miaomiao? That was impossible. Even immortals couldn’t harm Miaomiao. What could players do?

Overthrowing Mu-Nyang? Even Pangu was helpless against that cat god. Again, what could players do?

Miaomiao snorted. He lost interest in Pan Mei’s scheme and announcement.

<And lastly, I would like to announce a major event in advance. This event is related to the famous angel that you’ve seen in many viral clips.>

Miaomiao ignored the announcement and walked toward the training field, where he could train Chase. However, Pan Mei’s next words froze Miaomiao’s legs.

<Currently, the famous angel, the young master of the Mao Clan, is plotting with the president of USW to take over the second world and overthrow gods. The righteous god, Pangu, has noticed Mao Miaomiao’s movements, and he has put a bounty on Mao Miaomiao, the Mao Clan, the top brass of the United States of Wei, and their relatives. You can find their bounties and their last-seen location on the website! Of course, any player who contributes to the hunt can get awesome rewards and have a higher chance to earn myth-grade artifacts from us!>

Miaomiao looked at the sky. Once again, he was vexed. He regretted that he didn’t remove Pan Mei’s existence karma when they met at Eden Garden Sect.

This was bad news. If Pan Mei had the list of all his wives, who hadn’t regrouped with the others, they might be in danger!

Miaomiao closed his eyes and prayed to Mu-Nyang, hoping to get the cat god’s attention. Fortunately, Mu-Nyang instantly contacted Miaomiao after the last announcement message showed up.

‘Welp, shit, munya. Pangu is using players like how he’s exploiting them in the first game, munya.’

Miaomiao was relieved. He collected his thoughts and replied.

‘What did you do in the first game, then?’

‘I turned half of the players into cultivators for real, munya. They got their power, and they fought among themselves. Pangu ended up canceling the game before he awakened too many cultivators on the Divine Theocracy Earth, munya.’

‘Could you tell me the detail of the past?’

‘I’m busy, munya. Anyway, I’ll send the list and the current location of your wives to you. Bear in mind that I sent some of them to other worlds since they were born before you and they proved to be useful.’

‘Dammit. You told me that you reincarnated my wives around me, but you actually sent them away?!’

‘There are some technical issues, munya! I’m so sorry!’

Miaomiao rubbed his temples. He sighed.

‘Okay. Give me the list. I’ll go collect them and prepare against the players.’

‘Sure, munya. Oh, do me a favor. Don’t cut their karma, munya. Just kill them normally, and they will sometimes die from the synchronization backlashes, munya!’

The cat later listed the location of Miaomiao’s wives as a note, which appeared as a system message.

Aside from the girls that were sent to other worlds, Miaomiao’s wives formed teams nicely. Even though some of them had to work together in pairs, none of them seemed to be under a threat, judging from the strength of their previous life.

Miaomiao was surprised to see Houtu and Lilim on the list. He thought that he had suppressed them in his dantian, but they were here.

‘Oh, well. I can’t help it. It must be fate.’

Miaomiao rechecked the list to see the anomaly. His eyes were attracted to the Valley of Death, where Diaochan and two succubi were grouped there.

‘Where is this place? I guess I have to ask the others.’

Luoyang Palace

Cao Cao, aka Devil, welcomed the former disciple of Miaomiao in the banquet hall. She held a party for the group of protagonists, who banded together under a certain clan.

The flag of the clan was none other than the “Sima”.

Sima Yi knelt and cupped his fist as if he was facing the emperor. However, Devil helped him up as she was the president of a country, and they didn’t use the old traditions.

“Stop kneeling. Our country respects human rights. Everybody is equal!”

Sima Yi bitterly laughed, “That sounds weird, my lady. You are Lord Mao’s esteemed wife. I must pay respect to you the same way I pay respect to him.”

“Ah, shut it. Don’t talk about that idiot clone of mine. Anyway, let’s enjoy the meal.”

Devil guided Sima Yi and his followers to their seats. They shared the same table, and Devil didn’t mind that they still carried weapons in the banquet.

The sound of the piano soothed the hearts of the visitors and the hosts. They enjoyed their fine meal.

30 minutes later, Devil and Sima Yi started their business talk. They chatted in a low voice.

Sima Yi revealed his plan, “I’m planning to conquer the world and enthrone Lord Mao. I’m wondering if I could have your support, my lady.”

Devil picked up the glass of wine and sipped it, “Can you handle the consequence?”

“Which one?”

“We haven’t eliminated Pangu’s men from our world yet. Unless they’re dead, we can’t unify the world.”

“But from the intel I gathered, the 10 great sects from the wasteland are eyeing us. They might cooperate with Kishin Douji and pincer your country before we can even recover from the last war against Shu Han. Isn’t it better to eradicate variables from the chess board? Without the ten great sects, the mainland will belong to you and your husband.”

“Ten Great Sects are pushovers. I have spies in there, and they can’t move against me. You’re overthinking.”

“Oh?” Sima Yi was surprised, “May I know which sect have you planted to mole?”

“That’s classified.”

“Ah, too bad.”

Devil glanced at Sima Yi’s followers. She sensed that the two of them had a similar aura to Xie Tian, Ma Moxi, and the protagonists that she had encountered in the past.

Curious, she changed the subject.

“Are they your men? Are they trustworthy?”

Sima Yi laughed. He looked at his followers.

“Two of them are protagonists, and the other five are their friends. They are former players that got stuck in here.”

“Hmm.”

Devil narrowed her eyes. She detected the karma of Pangu, and she didn’t trust them.

“Let them cut off the karma of Pangu, and I’ll let you cooperate with our country.”

“Cut the karma?”

“They smell like Pangu.”

“…”

Sima Yi turned to the group of players. He stared at the guy, who looked like a generic westerner on Earth. Then, he checked the K-Pop star lookalike man.

James Huntsman and Lee Jinyong were their names. Coincidentally, they were among the people that Mu-Nyang had warned Miaomiao to be careful.

James’s blond short hair, handsome face, and friendly smile could potentially charm every young woman. The blond westerner and the eastern robes didn’t suit well. He stood out like a sore thumb in the Asian environment. Still, his cultivation base of the 8th stage earned him respect.

As for Lee Jinyong, he managed to blend in well, but he lacked personality. His gloomy expression and his slouch shoulders made him look meek and weak. However, Lee was a 5th-stage cultivator with a monstrous foundation like Miaomiao.

Other than the two, their friends were all 3rd-stage cultivators. They trained well, and their foundations were solid. However, they couldn’t be compared to these two protagonists.

Before Sima Yi talked to them, Devil turned toward the two protagonists and fired an intimidating question.

“Did Pangu send you to infiltrate my ranks, boys?”

James’s face changed. His smiling turned solemn, “We don’t serve Pangu or whatever that is.”

“Are you sure? When you realized that you were trapped here, did you accept any proposal from the game admin?”

James smiled again, “We didn’t. Had one of us accepted, we wouldn’t have been scouted by Senior Sima.”

“Hou?”

Devil turned to Lee Jinyong. The latter furrowed his brows and glared at James. However, James sneered at Lee.

Sensing the subtle rivalry between the two, Devil had an idea. She turned to Lee and questioned him instead.

“Young man. I have a trick question for you. Play my game, and I’ll get you out of this predicament.”

Lee didn’t say anything. His innocent eyes gazed at the beautiful president in curiosity, “Yes?”

“Here is the question. Think carefully. If you were to ask your friend over here the question; Who is stronger between the two of you, what do you think he will answer?”

Without batting an eye, Lee answered, “Obviously, he will praise himself because of his superior cultivation base.”

“Of course. What about your answer?”

“…”

Lee looked at James, but the latter scoffed at the former. A faint complaint came from James’s mouth, “Pathetic yellow money.”

Hearing the insult, Lee’s pupils dilated, but his expression didn’t change. He took a sip of water and turned to Devil, answering her with a straight face.

“Depends on the measurement technique. If you talk about the cultivation base, yes, I’m weaker than him.”

“Hou?”

Devil sensed his hidden determination and figured out the personality of Lee. She rechecked the Korean guy’s karma again.

Unlike James, the karma string of Pangu that attached to Lee was thinner than the other players.

Seeing their interaction, Devil made a new proposal to Sima Yi.

“I’m willing to cooperate with you. However, I want to employ and send him to my husband. Is that okay?”

Devil pointed at Lee Jinyong.
