Chapter 173: Meeting You Again When The Flowers Fall
```
About ten miles from the villa, a beautiful mature woman was carefully pouring a cup of wine from a bottle.
The wine was emerald green, with a faint aroma of plants and trees; it was an Immortal Herb Golden Core wine, self-brewed in the Western Wastes.
The beauty became even more alluring, her looks transcendental, her figure statuesque, and her beauty made it difficult to look directly at her, especially her body. Apart from her long legs and slender waist, the halter top of her blue butterfly dress barely concealed her jade-like skin. The heavy peaches seemed as if they could burst out of the fabric at any moment, making everyone who saw her curse inwardly, "How indecent, it's simply corrupting!"
"Master Lihua, look how generous I am to let you taste such fine wine. What could you possibly be dissatisfied with now?"
The day before, Master Taohua had been scared out of her wits upon learning from her subordinates that two Golden Core cultivators may have come to Peach Blossom Star, and she immediately sought out her friend!
After all, the only ones who could make a female Master enamored were male Golden Core Masters; what Qi Refinement? A female Master wouldn't even glance at it—you're not Meng Yu!
The older she got, the more timid she became. Although Peach Blossom Star was her territory and the numerous Formations she had laid out were enough to kill a few Golden Cores, the fact that they had boldly come meant they were confident, and just like Bai Qianqian, among the Five Flowers of the Immortal Sect, Peach Blossom was the most fragrant—that is to say, the most timid.
The hotter and fiercer a woman's figure, the less adept she was at fighting and the better she was at seduction!
However, seduction required secrecy, and it just so happened that Master Lihua was nearby—calling her over was a no-brainer.
As for the Immortal Sect's backup... it really wasn't worth it.
"The flavor is nice. Whoever brewed this is definitely one of our peers, and the taste is exquisite. I've never had it before."
She finished the emerald wine in one gulp, and the faint fragrance caused the noses of several disciples nearby to twitch.
The wine was unproblematic and extremely good, despite never having been tasted before.
This cup of wine was also why Master Taohua had invited Master Lihua over. Master Taohua loved to drink, and she had a collection of all sorts of fine drinks from the Immortal Sect, especially those masterpieces that she treasured in her heart. But now, all of a sudden, a bottle of fine wine had appeared, brewed by a Plant System Golden Core Master, prompting her to contemplate even more.
Plant System cultivators often helped each other, and they usually became acquainted starting from Qi Cultivation. There shouldn't be an unknown Golden Core, but this bottle of wine was clearly only brewed a few decades ago.
Was this a show of strength against her, or something else?
It would be foolish of her not to seduce at this point.
"You haven't tasted it before either?"
Master Taohua's eyes lit up. Master Lihua was much wilder than she was. After the xx incident in the past, she almost decided to go to the Outer Realm, change her identity, and start over.
"No, there are three Golden Cores now," Master Lihua sighed.
What was a Golden Core?
A Golden Core of a Minor World often served as the ruler of that world, doing whatever they pleased, and as long as it wasn't too excessive, the Immortal Sect usually wouldn't interfere.
Similarly, if a Golden Core quietly slipped into Peach Blossom Star to steal—believe it or not, there were many shameless cultivators in the Immortal Sect. After all, when you need to breakthrough but find you're missing a resource, you'll certainly discard morality. Discover stories with My Virtual Library Empire
In such a scenario, Qi Foundation Establishment cultivators would be swiftly dealt with, but Golden Cores, as long as they weren't excessive, would generally be tolerated by other Golden Cores. Even if discovered, they would be driven away rather than eradicated.
Better that than forcing the other party into a desperate corner.
As for disguising oneself and trading on a certain star without leaving a name or revealing one's appearance, unless the other party was a notorious big demon, Guardian Masters often turned a blind eye, not even bothering to report it.
And three Golden Core Masters...
Well, even Master Taohua felt that perhaps she should seduce a few more people.
"No need, she doesn't seem like a bad person."
On a nearby screen, surveillance footage of the shops was playing, and the only impression everyone got was... this girl didn't seem like she was pretending. But was the charm of that male Master really that great?
"Hmm, let's watch and see. I hope nothing happens."
Master Lihua nodded, watching the three fools enter the villa, and then the Formation activated, quickly becoming silent without a trace.
Great, so they had a Formation, and it was a high-level one at that.
Three Foundation Establishment cultivators, dealing with two Golden Cores...
Which family wanted to take over the Ouyang family's property?
Or perhaps, did they have descendants who wanted to undertake the Son of Heavenly Way project?
Master Lihua pondered deeply but never considered that it could be Meng Yu.
After all... there was a cognitive trap forming: if Meng Yu wanted to cause trouble, he would only do so in a First Grade Minor World.
And taking risks in Second and Third Grade worlds? That was too dangerous.
...
Inside the villa.
"It seems like two Golden Cores are watching us. Should we run away?"
Bai Qianqian was very nervous, extremely nervous. These were Golden Cores from the world of the round moon, not the same concept as her native, rustic Golden Core.

"You..."
Meng Yu sighed.
"Don't worry, this is Peach Blossom Star, and Master Taohua is not only beautiful but also broad-minded, so no conflicts will erupt. She's just a little curious about what we're doing."
Meng Yu looked at the three Foundation Establishment cultivators lying unconscious on the ground.
"Oh, Master Lihua is actually here, and Zhuge Caihua too?"
Meng Yu suddenly paused, as the images of two people reflected in the Water Mirror.
Well, after Zhuge Caihua arrived at Changdong Star, she spent a lot of money to set up a Teleportation Array there. Although it was small and could only teleport two or three people at a time, it was still fast enough to get home.
"Let them in, I have acquaintances inside."
...
Zhuge Caihua always felt that the man looked somewhat familiar, and she had the urge to beat him up the moment she saw him, especially the girl, who pitifully followed him, an image of an innocent young girl being seduced. Why did she become so curious?
When the message came that the other party was willing to meet and chat, Zhuge Caihua was still contemplating this question.
"The woman is a Golden Core, no problem there," her master whispered.
"I can't sense the presence of a Golden Core from the man, no matter how I look at it, he seems to be at the sixth level of Qi Cultivation."
"That's normal, some old silver coins love to hide their cultivation. Unless they truly take action and such, it's really hard to notice, and besides, his Divine Sense is quite powerful, at least at the Foundation Establishment level."
Master Lihua and Master Taohua arrived at the villa with smiles.
"Greetings, elder sisters," said Bai Qianqian politely and timidly.
Well, Meng Yu had prepared many plans and had quite a few ideas. Now, Bai Qianqian's innate friendly aura immediately bridged the gap between her and the two Golden Core Lords.
Golden Cores possess a sharp intuition that allows them to determine what is their natural enemy and who is worth making connections with. Bai Qianqian, appearing soft and timid, was exactly to their taste.
"We snuck in mainly because I don't have an identity. I was born in a certain world, it's a terrifying place, I..."
The following conversation was more straightforward. Bai Qianqian omitted what shouldn't be said, brushing over various topics. The gist of it was that she was a Golden Core Master who had been secretly cultivating somewhere, living a hard life. Fortunately, she met Meng Yu, who had been a great help to her. As things developed between them, they became a couple. Then they snuck onto this planet, hoping to buy some things and maybe find some side jobs to earn a living for their small world together...
The two Golden Core Masters were gracious, and while they felt that Bai Qianqian was talking nonsense, they still listened attentively.
...
Meng Yu stood casually to one side, watching a group of peerlessly beautiful women.
Especially Master Lihua. This was his first time meeting her in person. Her dignified and cool demeanor matched the pictures he had seen online, cough cough... That wasn't right, no matter what, she was an elder of the Zhuge family.
He felt a pair of inquisitive eyes on him—those belonged to Zhuge Caihua.
Actually, by all accounts, he didn't expect to encounter her so soon while out shopping with Bai Qianqian. If it were any other man, they might have disguised themselves, but Meng Yu, facing Zhuge Caihua, just smiled.
In the Great Tang Minor World, he openly told Bai Qianqian about having a harem. Many things didn't need to be concealed!
This journey, Bai Qianqian's plan for Meng Yu was for them to develop quietly, secretly purchasing various Magic Artifacts, and then build up their forces. In ten or a hundred years, when they had both achieved Golden Core and Nascent Soul, they could proudly stand tall.
Meng Yu had looked at Bai Qianqian with a strange gaze, as if looking at a wife who thought she could buy a house in Beijing, Shanghai, or Guangzhou just by saving up her salary, thinking her brains must have been kicked by a donkey!
"You don't really think I'm afraid of the truth being exposed, do you?"
To be honest, sometimes I even think there's something wrong with my brain, I'm scared of myself, and right now, I feel like shouting out to the world that I'm not normal anymore.
The Immortal Sect is gradually turning Meng Yu into an invincible being.
The three Golden Core ladies had already started discussing various messy topics. For instance... Master Lihua was very curious about how Bai Qianqian knew Meng Yu.
Then, the honest Bai Qianqian explained that Meng Yu had lent her some Black Iron Gold, roughly the price of a First Grade fine artifact at the Immortal Sect's prices, which solved her urgent need. She was touched afterward, as he helped her multiple times, giving her valuable gifts, making her deeply moved, and eventually, they got together.
Each time, it was just resources equivalent to a First Grade fine artifact.
The expressions of Master Taohua and Master Lihua twitched on hearing this. What on earth was this, what kind of joke was that!
A little star, having inherited a legacy from an elder, who had been self-cultivating until she met this man. Grateful for his help, he then took her away from her world to start a happy life.
"He is still in the Qi Refinement Realm?"
After hearing Bai Qianqian's words, Master Taohua, looking at Meng Yu, was completely astonished.
"Luck, just luck..." Meng Yu said very, very shyly, while Zhuge Caihua beside him suddenly lost control of her True Qi, stamping her foot and cracking a tile!
