[White Album has fainted due to mental exhaustion. Further dual-cultivation is impossible.]
"Ah, too bad."
It was already dark when White Album lost consciousness. It seemed that this girl was not as good as he had thought. Rather, the combination of Miaomiao's Asmodeus Bloodline, incubus genes, and orc penis was too overpowered in bed.
Miaomiao got a lot from having sex with both Xu Xiuying and White Album. He finally condensed another element crystal and form another sea of essence even though the volume of each sea was lower than the devil's standard.

…
The next hurdle was a lot more difficult, but it was doable. Miaomiao just needed to construct more buildings in his ITS or Siren City. Also, he could keep dual-cultivating with strong girls to refine his dantian, but it might take a long time to do so.
Miaomiao looked at the sky outside. Then, he glanced at the clock in his system menu.
It was 8 PM. The sky had turned dark.
Yet, Ma Ping, Ju Shoufen, and everyone hadn't returned to the guesthouse courtyard. It worried him.
'Shouldn't the tournament have ended already? What are they doing?'
Miaomiao toughed the master ring to sense Ju Shoufen's whereabouts. Surprisingly, she wasn't at the stadium. Her current location was under the imperial palace.
Since Ju Shoufen's life and Qi signal were perfectly fine, Miaomiao was relieved. As long as Ma Ping, Jia Shan, and Ding Bu were with her, the group should be alright regardless of the situation.
Miaomiao thought that they had a little adventure to the imperial palace treasury, or they might be invited to enter a portal to another realm or something similar as there were two protagonists in that party.
'Should I follow them?'
Miaomiao gazed at Xu Xiuying's body. He rubbed her breasts, admiring the bounciness and the smoothness.
'Nah, they'll be fine. I still have a lot to explain to Wei Yuan. I also need to talk to Xu Chu to learn something about the devil.'
Miaomiao read the system log of Wei Yuan. It seemed that she had been farming luck energy from trivial quests all day, and he wanted to check how she was doing.
Miaomiao put Ju Shoufen's party matter to the back of his head. Then, he went to sleep by using Xu Xiuying's soft thighs as a pillow, but his fingers were glued with her round white butt.
…
At 7 AM, next morning, Miaomiao woke up after he had soothed Wei Yuan and talked to Xu Chu. Because of Wei Yuan's jealousy, he ended up spending the time pleasing her with his dick and tentacles.
Despite having sex all night, Miaomiao was in a bad mood. He wondered why the sponsor's name and his existence were so secretive.
In the ITS, Xu Chu also refused to mention anything about him. She said something like, "I'll die if I reveal his name" crap like Ding Bu.
'Is he fucking Voldemort or something!? Whenever we gossip about him, we have to say YOU-KNOW-WHO as his pronoun!? You know what, I'm going to find out whatever your name, your address, your sister's address, your daughter's address, your wife's address are, and I'll fuck every woman in your family! As for you, I'll feed aphrodisiac pills to 1,000 pigs and shove 1,000 sexy pills in your ass! Then, I'll just film the whole fucking live-action and sell the footage to the deep web!'
"Oh, you're up."
White Album in Xu Xiuying's body combed Miaomiao's hair while the latter was still resting his head on her laps. Her other free hand reached out for his erected penis and stroked it.
"I've only seen this position in Japanese porn. This actually feels nice," As Miaomiao said that, he massaged White Album's breasts and played with her nipples.
"Should we continue for more? I've regained a bit of my stamina. I won't lose to you again!"
Miaomiao smiled, but he shook his head, "Nah."
"Wow. The sun has finally risen from the west? My horny master finally declines my sex offer!"
"Pfft. Had it been a normal circumstance, I would have fucked you senseless. Tell me, where is everybody. I don't sense anyone in the courtyard."
As soon as Miaomiao had woken up, he spread his Qi sense to check his surroundings. However, he couldn't sense the life signatures of his seniors, Ma Moxi, or Ju Shoufen. Even Luo Cheng's group wasn't here.
"I don't know. I've been sitting here and playing with your dick since I woke up."
Miaomiao got up, cleaned his body with his new water element ability, and put on his clothes. Then, he rubbed the master ring, searching for Ju Shoufen's whereabouts.
However, her life signature disappeared.
Miaomiao frowned. He unsheathed Killer Queen and ordered her, "Transform into a human. I need extra manpower right now."
KQ transformed into a little girl again. She reluctantly put on her favorite Miko dress and took out a sky-grade katana from Miaomiao's spatial ring.
"Will there be a fight?"
"Depends. But first, we need to investigate several places and gather information. White Album, put on your clothes. We'll leave ASAP."
White Album sighed in regret. She only had less than a day to possess Xu Xiuying's body, but they had to move out for another potential combat. As such, she was mad at whoever and whatever distracted Miaomiao from having sex with her.
…
Miaomiao's party revisited the stadium first. As soon as they arrived, they found no one.
Everything was empty as if it was deserted. However, litter, such as paper containers, wasted food, and water bottles scattered everywhere on the stand.
"Where is everybody?"
Miaomiao scanned the arena with his Qi sense. Yet, he couldn't find anybody here.
"It's probably closed," Killer Queen also searched for clues. She visited the betting house, but it was also deserted.
"I'll go ask the peasants around here if they know something," White Album rushed out of the arena to gather more information from the nearby stores and shops.
Killer Queen and Miaomiao separated and inspected the backstage. Then, they regrouped at the center of the arena 10 minutes later.
She found some clues. It was the tournament diagram that Miaomiao and others had participated in.
In the diagram, Ding Bu won the tournament. Nothing was interesting in there at glance.
White Album also returned with a piece of news. She had asked around, and she found out what had happened after the tournament had concluded.
"I'll go first," White Album relayed what she had found first. "Ding Bu won the tournament by a landslide, but during the award ceremony, a shadow enveloped the stadium, and everyone inside disappeared. Only cultivators who were spectating the event from the sky made it out."
Miaomiao nodded. He had a few suspects in his mind.
The first one was Wang Yun, who was a shadow element user. He used his shadow to teleport around, and he was able to restrain other cultivators with shadow tentacles.
The other suspect was Liu Bian. Since he used to put a bounty on Xie Tian's dead body with a shadow element crystal, he should also be able to use a similar skill as Wang Yun.
Thinking this far, it came to Miaomiao. He thought of Wang Diaochan, who had been tagging along with Wang Yun. She was supposed to be another participant in the tournament, but Miaomiao didn't see her fight.
Something didn't feel right about Wang Diaochan.
KQ placed the tournament diagram on the ground and shrugged, "I have nothing new. Just a stupid diagram."
Miaomiao inspected the tournament diagram, searching for her name.
In the diagram, Wang Diaochan met Ding Bu in the semi-final, but the record said she forfeited.
"…"
White Album and KQ looked at their master, "What do you think, Miaomiao?"
Miaomiao closed his eyes and recalled what Wang Yuan and Wang Diaochan acted when they first met. The girl seemed nervous despite having a strong backer, which was not the usual habit of the proud daughter of a 7th-stage cultivator.
There were two types of female characters in wuxia novels, spoiled bitches and masturbation-tool trophy heroines. There was no middle ground as everybody else was just extras and filler characters.
If Wang Diaochan was a spoiled bitch, she should have been selfish, assertive, or outgoing like Wei Yuan as she should have been spoiled to death by bootlickers from her clan. Yet, the characteristic of a spoiled young miss was not there.
Even if Wang Diaochan was the heroine type, she shouldn't be a coward, who forfeited the major tournament easily. Heroines were always graceful, delicate, strong, and likable to the point that most novel readers lusted for her.
Both types did not fill the category of a cowardice girl, who was a young miss of a powerhouse figure. It was too suspicious.
Then, Miaomiao had a hypothesis.
"Wang Diaochan is probably Liu Bian in disguise."
"Huh?" White Album and KQ doubted it, "But wasn't Liu Bian a boy? Wang Diaochan is clearly a girl."
Miaomiao took out a pill from his spatial ring. Then, he ate it.
The next second, his body transformed into a long black-haired woman with 36D. His height shortened by 10 centimeters, and his eyebrows got thinner. His skin became paler, and it looked more delicate than before.
Combining with his original pretty young master's face, Miaomiao had turned into a gorgeous girl!
"This type of pill exists. I sold some of them to the black market if I remember correctly."
Miaomiao rubbed his breasts and massaged his butt for a moment before the pill effect expired. He returned to his original body.
"I hope you won't summon your female clone to fuck yourself in ITS," White Album laughed.
"Actually, I haven't thought about it. Thanks for reminding me of something fun. I'll try the [Selfcest] when I have free time."
"… I didn't mean that you should do it."
Ding
[As I said, father. You need Jesus.]
Miaomiao shrugged it off. He changed the subject, "Anyway. Now, we know that everybody here has been kidnapped or abducted by a shadow user. Let's go to the next place."
"Where?"
"The imperial palace," Miaomiao pointed at the center of the city, where Miaomiao had sensed Ju Shoufen's presence last night.
That was their next clue. The shadow user might have taken everybody to the underground dungeon under the imperial palace, so Miaomiao planned to raid the palace next.
"This is the imperial palace we're talking about. Can we even enter that place undetected?"
In the imperial palace, thousands of 5th-stage imperial soldiers and 6th-stage generals patrolled the area. Going inside undetected might be impossible.
"White Album."
"Yeah?"
"Get out of Xu Xiuying's body. Lock her in the guesthouse and come with me in the spirit form."
White Album pouted. She liked Xu Xiuying's body, and she wanted to keep it, "Boo!"
"Her dantian has no Qi. You will be a hindrance if we enter the palace with your crippled body. Return to me, so we can sneak in together."
"Oh, well. Give me a few minutes. I have to walk this body back to the guesthouse and get back to you."
Miaomiao and White Album could have dumped the body there and went to the palace together. However, Xu Xiuying's body was too weak at the moment. Miaomiao didn't want to leave her here and be violated by some passing-by third-rated thugs.
Xu Xiuying was now his property! Only his dick was permitted to take an adventure in her vulva!
Miaomiao had another idea, "How about this? I'll use my stealth skill and enter the palace first. You go and dump the bitch somewhere in the guesthouse. Then, come find me in the palace. You can sense where I am, right?"
"Yes, I can. Alright, I'll put this bitch in a crate and ship it to Siren City!"
Miaomiao wanted to ask further if there was a delivery service in the city, but he didn't have the time to care. He turned to Killer Queen, "Transform to the katana again."
KQ raised her voice in irritation, "A few minutes ago, you told me to change into a human. Now, you want me back as a sword!? What am I, Bumblebee!? Make up your mind!"
"Sorry for the inconvenience, my queen. Will 100 essence cores do?"
"Make it 200!"
"Deal. Here are the essence cores!"
Miaomiao shoved 200 essence cores in KQ's mouth. The little girl swallowed them all with a bright smile. Then, she reverted back to the black katana form.
Miaomiao activated the mermaid stealth skill. Then, he flew toward the imperial palace.
