Becoming evil makes you ten times stronger, but becoming a demon gives you hundredfold strength-Chapter 429 341: The Spring Wind and Rain are the Hardest to Guard Against
Upon waking up in the morning, Meng Yu found himself alone; the two beautiful girls had left the bed early after dedicating themselves wholeheartedly and were busy preparing breakfast for him.
Although once the Golden Cores revealed their true selves and took control of the city, there were all sorts of people to take care of these things.
Meng Yu didn't stop them; he could sense their unease and their desire to prove themselves.
Perhaps they were once proud daughters of heaven, especially Qin Ningxue with her lofty ambitions, but the cruel blows they endured time and again in the Cultivation World made it abundantly clear how rare and valuable a reliable shoulder to lean on was.
That day, after Meng Yu saved the two, they had actually been prepared. They just didn't expect Meng Yu to be such a gentleman.
His body still carried the scent of the girls, the unforgettable intimacies of the previous night, but Meng Yu's thoughts drifted to Liu Qingshuang.
Compared with the dazzling Bai Qianqian, Zhuge Caihua, or the enchanting and stunning Fairy Taohua, who stood in the limelight, she was just an inconspicuous empress of a Minor World in Meng Yu's eyes.
She had been with Meng Yu for two or three years, the happiest time of her life; when Meng Yu married her, she glowed with joy.
But their love story lasted only those few years.
The Spiritual Qi Tide of that world had receded, and Meng Yu would not return to that Minor World. Originally, Meng Yu suggested she come to the Upper Realm, but she refused.
However, their communication did not stop. The portal to the Minor World was moved to the Mountain Gate of the New Moonwatching Sect, and she took over the land in place of Meng Yu. Whenever Meng Yu missed her, she would come up with her sister and others at a moment's notice; Meng Yu respected her choice.
In this world, it is difficult to have everything perfect.

Standing up, Fairy Taohua smiled as she handed him fresh clothes, and at her side, another Golden Core Female Cultivator watched him with a smile, not minding Meng Yu's half-naked torso.
A man, as long as he can shelter everyone from the wind and rain and uphold a domain, is the best person.
Reaching out, he pinched Master Taohua's cheek playfully, then Meng Yu headed outside.
Many had already learned that Meng Yu had awakened and were lined up waiting for an audience.
It was his time now.
...
The subsequent ten days were exceedingly peaceful and joyful.
The news of Meng Yu's three-day slumber wasn't deliberately concealed, and during the ten days after his awakening, what he did was completely transparent.
Happy and leisurely.
Accompanied by beauties, they sang through the nights, while the bloody turmoil and various chaotic duties outside had nothing to do with him.
He appeared to be a wastrel.
History has seen many such figures, many entitled or lucky individuals who immerse themselves in wine and pleasures and neglect their duties. Yet Meng Yu's conduct reassured many.
Govern a great nation as you would cook a small fish.
The mystic force occupied Sleepless City, and many thought it was doomed, everyone bracing for the blood-sucking and skin-peeling tactics. But when the Immortal Sect Golden Cores displayed civilization, there was a wondrous feeling.
What kind of divinity had descended from the heavens?
Swords can kill, but civilization can win hearts and minds convincingly.
Why did Meng Yu want people from Immortal Sect to work? Because he had an important plan.
This plan wasn't about the combat prowess of the Immortal Sect Golden Cores but about their revitalized civilization.
The core of the plan, Meng Yu had not disclosed to anyone, but everything progressed smoothly by a fortunate series of events.
Six hundred Golden Cores practicing the Wood Element Skill had naturally mild dispositions; as successful beings, they were naturally open-minded, and not the kind to exploit like starved ghosts.
Furthermore, having passed through Immortal Sect's thorough screening, the ill-tempered ones were weeded out. It was safe to say that these people represented the essence of Immortal Sect's civilization.
Even the worst of hypocrites is much better than a downright robber.
And Meng Yu had placed three seals on them.
First, all gains must be turned over to the public, then distributed. If they genuinely liked an item, it had to be acquired through internal auction and finalized upon return.
Second, all spoils of war had to be taken back to Immortal Sect and must pass through Meng Yu.
Third, there was a clear advance notice of the prohibitions, of what must not be done, and certainly not how.
Since the benefits obtained couldn't be enjoyed directly, since hidden treasures couldn't deceive everyone without causing shame, and since everything was clarified in advance, including the oaths made before the Moon God, then in this world, let the natives see the civilization of Immortal Sect!
Civilization isn't touted with words; it is demonstrated by the people of that civilization themselves.
The Golden Cores interfered in the workings of Sleepless City, took control of districts, killed people, spared lives, and promoted individuals.
Some sought attachment, others bribed or sowed discord, and yet others saw it as a mere show. But Immortal Sect's Golden Cores, with their gentle and peaceful methods, and with the rules of Immortal Sect, resolved issues!
Liu Bang won the hearts of the people of Guanzhong with his three simple laws, and the two hundred Golden Cores of Sleepless City studied the policies of the Immortal Sect's think tanks, the Elder Council, and civilian groups, and based on the previous employment experiences, crafted codes of personal and organizational conduct, as well as various techniques for resolving issues.
