Villain Cultivator

Chapter 500 – Trouble Magnets

It had been three days after the Holy Land Tournament officially had started.

After Kang Yan debuted, Zhao Bao, Xiahou Dun, and Ju Shoufen had their matches on the second day.

Ju Shoufen had no problem crushing her opponent and burnt him to smithereens. She obtained all artifacts and treasures from the losers, including his subordinates. She sold them back to their clan leader to exchange them for five pieces of 1st-grade soul stones.

After two victories came the pieces of bad news.

Xiahou Dun forfeited before he entered the stage after he had discovered that his opponent was a 9th-stage cultivator, which was a smart move. He didn't lose anything, and he wasn't obliged to give the winner anything.

Zhao Bao fought a local cultivator from the Holy Land Continent to a draw. Then, both sides agreed to concede and give up, thus, not losing anything as well. However, they had to withdraw from this grand tournament.

On the third day, only Wei Yuan had a match. The rest of the girls were scheduled to fight on the fourth and fifth day.

Her opponent, fortunately, was a nascent soul cultivator, who happened to be a female as well. She was from the Jian Clan, one of the Seven Great Clans.

Jian Cai was a valiant swordswoman, whose beauty was on par with Kang Yan and others. Her unique blond short hair and pretty face stunned many men.

Unfortunately, this tournament forced her to leave her soul-bound weapons behind. Jian Cai was in a bad mood as she had to use random weapons on the stage.

As soon as Jian Cai met Wei Yuan on the stage, she was astonished.

Wei Yuan also had blond hair. As this Oni woman was a happy mom with a sex-addicted husband, her physique and demeanor were refined and sexy.

Male spectators dropped their jaws as they gawked at Wei Yuan's beauty. Even Liu Hanzhen's eyes were glued to her.

"Next match, Wei Yuan of Aves Continent's Mao Clan versus Jian Cai of Holy Land Continent's Great Jian Clan! Begin!"

Fang Yanxu scattered random weapons on the arena and initiated the match.

Jian Cai didn't waste time. She collected two broadswords and rushed at Wei Yuan.

The Oni didn't bother picking up a weapon. She only drew something in front of her with her fingertips, and she activated her nascent soul domain.

Yet, nothing happened.

Jian Cai was confused for a moment. She thought that Wei Yuan's domain failed to activate, so she decided not to activate her domain to save her strength for the next round. With only Dao Avatars of Seven Swords, she rushed at Wei Yuan.

But as soon as Jian Cai activated her Dao Avatars, she suddenly felt exhausted. Her energy consumption spiked, and Qi in her dantian was depleted.

"WHAT?!"

Wei Yuan smirked and pointed her fingertip at Jian Cai. Then, the Dao Avatars of Seven Swords appeared behind her.

"Go."

The seven swords multiplied into a thousand swords and rained upon Jian Cai.

The swordswoman widened her eyes in shock. Wei Yuan was using her Dao!

As Jian Cai's energy was depleted, she could easily foresee the result. She immediately bellowed before the swords could reach her.

"I concede!"

The thousand swords paused. One of the sword tips was a millimeter away from her forehead. Then, the illusive swords dissipated.

"Winner, Wei Yuan of Aves Continent!"

Wei Yuan took a deep breath to dispel her nascent soul domain, the Chaos Sovereign Domain.

This domain could plunder Qi from her opponents and copy their knowledge, skills, and memory. With the addition of her Chaos Element Continent as the Dao Pillar Foundation and the nascent soul, which was formed by the Dao Pillar's Golden Core, she could even bend Law and use her opponent's abilities or techniques without consuming her own power.

Nobody under the 8th-stage was her opponent. Wei Yuan was confident that she could even defeat Miaomiao as long as he didn't use his cheats.

Now, Wei Yuan just obtained the entire life experience of the swordswoman. She learned the unique swordsmanship and the techniques of the Great Jian Clan for free.

Satisfied by her gain, Wei Yuan turned around without asking Jian Cai to become her servant, slave, or subordinate. She waved her hand at Fang Yanxu, "I don't want her items, her subordinates, or her. Return everything."

"…"

Jian Cai widened her eyes in astonishment yet again. She knelt and cupped her fist, thanking Wei Yuan for her benevolence.

The elders of the Great Jian Clan, including Jian Meng and Jian Yong, nodded in admiration. They were also relieved that a warrior from their clan was spared.

…

The patriarch of Great Jian Clan, Jian Wang, observed the fight from the VIP box room that Miaomiao used to be in.

Jian Wang appeared to be a late-middle-aged man, but his real age surpassed that. His trimmed black full-beard, kempt ponytail, thick eyebrows, and long nose made him dandy and handsome.

He turned around to talk to his clan's immortal guardian.

"What do you think of that woman?"

"Jian Cai? She's below average."

"No. I mean, her opponent."

"Oh."

The immortal in a white Daoist robe behind Jian Wang was also from the Notorious Immortal Jian Clan from the higher realm. He looked a lot younger than Jian Wang as he seemed to be in his 20s.

The immortal glanced at Wei Yuan, who was leaving the arena.

"She looks promising. She can even copy her opponent's abilities with her strange domain. Not many mortals can do that."

"I know right? How about it? Want me to entice that woman to marry a child from the Immortal Jian Clan?"

The immortal had a wry smile on his face and shook his head, "That is impossible."

"Why?"

"That woman is an Oni. Kishin Douji will send his men to fetch her once she ascends. If we were to take her in, we would offend that monster."

Kishin Douji was infamous in the higher realms for his obsession with Oni women. Everybody was aware of this Oni God's nature, and they didn't want to provoke him.

After all, Kishin Douji was rumored to be as strong as the First Generation Marionettes, such as Uriel. Only the Prototype Generation like Devil could suppress him.

"That's a shame. I like her," Jian Wang was disappointed.

"Don't be greedy. That woman seems to be Mao Miaomiao's wife, and that guy is working for Joshua and the Trumpet Alliance. Sooner or later, Kishin Douji and those people will start fighting each other over a single woman, and we don't want to be under the crossfire."

"Right. Let's not get involved."

…

While Jian Wang chose not to cross the line, Liu Hanzhen had the other idea. This crown prince of the Great Liu Clan immediately contacted his father via phone.

"Father, I want that woman that just defeated Jian Cai! I want her as my wife!"

Soon, Liu Hanzhen received a rebuke from his father, the patriarch of the Great Liu Clan.

'Don't be absurd. You will offend those deities behind the Mao Clan's patriarch. I don't care if you ravish someone's wives in this world, but you can't touch them!'

"Why? Can't we contact Uncle Gaozu and ask him to help?"

'Idiot. Our ancestor is merely a low-tier deity. He can't possibly take on the army of First Generation War Marionette, Macho Joshua, and the Devil! This doesn't include the other lurking brothers and sisters of the Devil! Stay out of it or our clan will perish!'

"…"

Liu Hanzhen clicked his tongue as his father ended the call. This was the first time that his parents refused to fulfill his wishes.

He brought out the tournament bracket paper and checked his queue. Coincidentally, he would end up fighting Wei Yuan if they both defeated two more opponents.

Liu Hanzhen licked his lips and rubbed his balls.

"It doesn't matter. I can easily defeat a nascent soul cultivator in the tournament and force her to be my slave later. She will be mine in the end! Hahahahaha!"

…

"ACHOO!"

Before Wei Yuan could return to her locker room, she sneezed.

The girl frowned and looked behind her, but she found nobody.

"Is another asshole fantasizing me again? They never learned."

Wei Yuan rolled her eyes and entered the locker room. This wasn't the first time that she had experienced something similar.

In Siren City, many brave men tried to woo her despite knowing about her status and her relationship with Miaomiao. They tried to discredit her husband for being a cheater or a womanizer to entice her.

The results were the same. Wei Yuan always beat them black and blue. Then, she gave them to Zhao Bao and Zhang Jue, who happily castrated them or turned them into monks.

Entering the locker room, the other women were there, except for Kang Yan.

"Oh, you're back," Lai Wen greeted her mistress. "Your domain is nasty as always. Did you learn the Jian Swordsmanship?"

"Yeah. The same way I learned all your skills."

Everyone in the room laughed. They sparred with Wei Yuan before, and the latter had already copied all their skills. Only Mao Xueyan, Kang Yan, Ma Xingjuan, and Ju Shoufen were the only women that could stand toe to toe with Wei Yuan as they got used to fighting with their clones with 200% potential difficulty.

"Where's Kang Yan?" Wei Yuan looked around and couldn't see Kang Yan here.

"She's probably going out and deal with her rewards. She called Senior Uriel to accompany her to somewhere."

…

While Miaomiao was still training in his space, Kang Yan and Uriel visited a massive tent outside the stadium, which belonged to the representatives from the Mammal Continent.

The Mammal Continent was under the rules of the Great Ji Clan. The dead representative that Kang Yan had killed belonged to this continent.

However, Ji Clan's status wasn't as good as the other six clans, such as Zhang, Guan, or Liu. Their backers suffered a crushing defeat in the higher realms, and they stopped supplying soul stones to them. As a result, they were currently suffering from a financial deficit, and they were about to be bankrupted.

Now, one of their representatives had lost, and they had to hand over some of their manpower to Kang Yan.

The patriarch of the Ji Clan, Ji Ling, stared at Uriel and Kang Yan with hatred. He simply tossed a spatial ring at them.

"We only have five 1st-grade soul stones for you as a ransom for Ji Ming's subordinates. Now, get lost!"

Uriel caught the ring and nodded. Then, he led Kang Yan out of the tent.

They were done here.

After Kang Yan and Uriel left, Ji Ling crushed the wine cup in his hand. Then, he sent voice-transmission to other clan lords.

"I want to form an alliance against the Mao Clan. Who's up for it?!"

'Again?'

Ji Ling heard a weary reply from one of the clan lords. It was from the Zhang Clan.

The patriarch stopped sending telepathic voices to others and communicated with only Zhang Clan's patriarch to save energy.

"Hah, again? Of course, Zhang Yi. We have to do something about that bastard. We can't let him and his deity backers ruin our tournament!"

Zhang Yi, the patriarch of the Zhang Clan, sounded tired, 'I received a report from my spy in Siren City. Mao Miaomiao is not someone we should offend. Instead, we should befriend him.'

The spy was none other than Zhang Jue, the abbot of Huangjin Monastery and the senior of Zhao Bao. The abbot had been convincing Zhang Yi to befriend Miaomiao ever since he joined forces with Siren City.

None of them had realized that Zhang Jue was now a double agent. His heart already belonged to Siren City after he had received an order from OG-Buddha.

"If we befriend him, what about our tournament? We will lose our status as Great Clans if his people become a champion of this tournament!"

'Then, we kick someone else out that isn't one of us. Let the Mao Clan replace them.'

"Which clan will we replace?!"

'Interested in stealing the wealth of Liu Clan? My intel said that Liu Hanzhen is a womanizer. If we get him to offend Mao Miaomiao, that guy might crush the Liu Clan, and we can work together to rob the Liu Clan's wealth in this tournament.'

Now, Ji Ling was interested.

…

The tournament went on. On the fifth day, the girls and Zhou Gongjin got their matches, and everyone made it to the next round in one piece.

Zhou Gongjin and Dian Wei easily crushed their opponents while Lai Wen was the only one that barely survived as she wasn't used to the high-level fights.

The tournament took a break, and it would resume on the 8th day.

But on the 7th day during the break, the hotel manager of Miaomiao's hotel asked the immortals and clan lords for help.

Someone was undergoing a Heaven Tribulation on the top of the hotel, but none of the world guardians was there to manage it.

The tribulation clouds appeared by themselves and threatened to destroy the entire hotel.
