Villain Cultivator

Chapter 439: Timeline?

\'You aren\'t very impressed, do you?\'

"Why should I? I\'m used to it."

The deadpan expression of Miaomiao discouraged the demon tree from teasing the gang. It sighed, \'You\'re no fun. I thought you would be shocked to the point that you would kowtow to me and beg me for mercy.\'

"Judging from the earlier antics you did, I can kinda guess what your character is. Well, since you want to teach my wife, you might as well teach her husband about things. I\'ll just sit here and listen to you quietly."

\'You\'re quite shameless for a former human.\'

"Being shameless can get you far. Being timid will get you nowhere."

\'True.\'

The demon tree and Miaomiao hit it off despite being strangers, which confused Kang Yan.

Miaomiao and the demon tree had fun messing with each other for hours before Miaomiao decided to stop. He glanced at his system notification panel, where his live viewers reacted to his action.

[Macho Joshua suggests that you shouldn\'t leave Kang Yan with the demon tree.]

[The Devil disapproves the demon tree.]

[The Monkey King believes that you shouldn\'t trust the demon tree.]

The three big shots disapproved of this OHUHU tree for some reason, which made Miaomiao curious.

He thought to himself, sending a message to his high-tier subscribers.

\'If anyone can tell me who Swan Goddess what the background of this world is, I\'ll fulfill one request of that person.\'

Ding

[The Devil is happily raising his hand.]

[The Monkey King eagerly raises his hands and stands up.]

Two customers picked the bait. However, an uninvited guest also appeared.

Ding

[The Swan Goddess has subscribed to your channel.]

[The Devil pulls back his hand.]

[The Monkey King whistles while he feints ignorance.]

[The Sun Crow laughs at the troublemakers.]

[OG-Buddha prays for the Devil and the Monkey King.]

"???"

The reaction of the Devil and other dao gods seemed suspicious. It was as if that they were afraid of the Swan Goddess.

Ding

[The Swan Goddess is not happy to see you and OHUHUHOHOHU together.]

[The Swan Goddess hopes that you won\'t leave him alone with your wife.]

The first impression was everything, and this Swan Goddess had already ruined it. Miaomiao didn\'t like her since she already showed a sign of trouble.

First off, why did she imprison this tree demon if he was one of her familiars?

Secondly, if she was the creator of Heavenly Goose Planet, where had she been when all the messes occurred a few months ago?

And lastly, how strong was she? Why were the Monkey King and the Devil nervous when she showed up?

Also, Cernun\'s cryptic warning was still in Miaomiao\'s mind.

[Appreciate the help from dao gods, but don\'t trust them.]

With all those factors, Miaomiao couldn\'t trust the Swan Goddess!

He stared at OHUHU, "What did you do to get imprisoned like this? You said you were once a servant of this world\'s creator. What is the issue?"

The demon tree looked up, reminiscing of his past.

\'I was crazy back then.\'

"What did you do? Did you take your master virginity or something?"

\'Actually… Yes. When I gained my sentience, emotion, and conscience, I had sex with my master… Rather, I violated her senseless.\'

"…"

Miaomiao and Kang Yan facepalmed.

Miaomiao changed his mind. The tree demon deserved it, and the Swan Goddess had a legit reason to imprison it here.

He had explored enough internet to know what this demon tree had aimed when he seduced Kang Yan.

OHUHU read Miaomiao and Kang Yan\'s expressions. He complained, \'But she tempted me first! She kept rubbing her body parts with my short lower branch and wet it with her bodily fluid! I thought she wanted the D!!\'

[The Swan Goddess denies the accusation.]

[The Devil sneers at the Swan Goddess.]

[The Monkey King sneers at the Swan Goddess.]

Yup, these three seemed to have a history together, judging from their reactions.

Also, Miaomiao figured that the Swan Goddess might have used OHUHU as a masturbate tool when she was young. He understood why she was offended.

"Forget what I asked. I\'ll be leaving. Kang Yan, let\'s leave this place before he violates you, too."

Kang Yan repeatedly nodded and walked away from the room.

\'Wait! WAIT!! TRUST ME!! I SWEAR THE GODS, I HAVE NO INTENTION TO DO ANYTHING TO YOUR WIFE!! PLEASE STAY!! YOU CAN STAY, TOO!! I\'LL GIVE YOU MY TREASURES!!\'

Miaomiao and Kang Yan rolled their eyes. The latter walked toward the moss wall to leave while Miaomiao tried to haggle for more bribery.

"How much will you give us? What\'s your goal?"

\'I need to do a million good deeds to be forgiven for my past sin! One good deed can lessen my prison term by one year! I have only finished 21,725 good deeds so far, including the time I kicked the assess of those intruders. But I need to complete more! Please… let me help you.\'

[The Swan Goddess suggests that you leave him alone to suffer.]

"…"

Kang Yan and Miaomiao looked at each other. Both of them smiled as if they could read each other\'s minds.

They spoke in unison, "Tell me what you can give us."

[The Swan Goddess is disappointed in you.]

[The Swan Goddess has shut down the inter-realm transaction of Heavenly Goose Planet for a year as a punishment for messing with one of her homeworlds.]

[No soul stone, DaoPorn Income, or DaoTube income can be transferred to you while the inter-realm transaction is closed.]

Miaomiao shrugged. Although the goddess temporarily disabled his passive income, he was not mad.

After all, he had ANOTHER source of income from his Isolation Training Space.

"Show me what you can give us."

\'Of course!\'

OHUHU\'s tree branches picked a hundred golden chestnuts from the upper branches. He even gathered a thousand pink leaves and piled them in front of Miaomiao.

\'These chestnuts are what you have eaten earlier. With these, your dantian size will expand by 100 trillion liters! As for the leaves, you can use this to comprehend earth element Qi!\'

"I can already use earth element Qi, though."

\'Then, use them as a pill ingredient. You can make a hundred Heaven-Grade Earth Element Pills by using one of the leaves! One pill can instantly boost a 3rd-stage cultivator to the 4th-stage!\'

It wasn\'t too bad. Miaomiao nodded and collected everything into his spatial ring.

"What else?"

\'Okay. I have more!\'

OHUHU\'s tree roots extended and entered the lake behind him. A few seconds later, the tree fetched a chest and brought it in front of Kang Yan.

\'Inside the box is the immortal-grade terra lingerie. This is something that my master has discarded because she doesn\'t need it anymore, but I have been keeping them to smell her…\'

Miaomiao and Kang Yan\'s expressions changed. They peered at the tree in disgust.

The tree cried, \'It continuously emits Terra Element to the wearer! An advanced element, you know!?\'

[The Swan Goddess feels like extending the prison term for another million years.]

Miaomiao inwardly agreed with the goddess, but the benefit was not something to be ignored.

"I assume it has never been washed."

\'Correct!\'

Miaomiao rolled his eyes, "Next item, please. Also, wash the thing inside the box, and we\'ll consider taking it and appreciate your GOOD DEED."

Miaomiao continued to extort for more items. He stressed the words, "Good Deed", to exploit the tree.

\'Hahaha! Sure!\'

The tree turned around to fetch another item. This time, it was a sealed grimoire.

The cover of this book resembled the World Tree of Cernun, but it contained a different color theme.

Cernun was pure, soothing, and greenish, reflecting the color of life and nature. However, the grimoire was dark, ominous, and evil.

Countless eyes on the tree picture rotated and moved as if they were alive. They stared at Miaomiao and Kang Yan while their faint scream of pain was subtly audible.

Both Kang Yan and Miaomiao frowned at the book.

\'This Grimoire contains the secret of a compound element, the Unholy Terra of Supreme Yin. The practitioner has to cultivate the dark arts and transform their physique into an unholy being before they can practice this! My master practiced this art and turned one of her planets into an extremity planet of death with nothing but Dark Element, Death Essence, and Unholy Terra Element.\'

Kang Yan glanced at Miaomiao and shook her head. She didn\'t want to practice something this sinister.

Yet, Miaomiao gleefully put the book in his spatial ring and politely bowed, "Thank you very much for such a precious grimoire. I\'ll make sure to treasure it and tell the inheritor of this book to thank you. Thank you very much for your GOOD DEED!!"

\'Hahaha! Sure! Of course. They should be thankful. Hey, wait here. I\'ll pick up something good.\'

While Kang Yan gave Miaomiao a disapproved look, Miaomiao had a rough idea who could practice this technique.

He thought of Diaochan, who seemed to be interested in his Dark Element Crystal.

Since she might be able to use the dark arts of Liu Bian in the future, why wouldn\'t he give him the grimoire and see what she could do with it?

…

In the end, OHUHU gave Miaomiao a dozen artifacts, pills, and cultivation books. The latter even scooped a few thousand liters of spring water into his system inventory for research.

Meanwhile, Kang Yan only took one of the items.

It was an old papyrus paper with a single picture of a half-naked middle-aged man, making a strange posture. However, it leaked the strong aura of a unique dao.

Kang Yan felt like she might learn something if she were to spend time staring at this picture. She agreed to take it with her and gave OHUHU her thanks.

But from Miaomiao\'s perspective, the bald man in a one-piece bikini seemed to being mimicking a Pillar Men post. He could even hear the pillar men theme from the yellowish papyrus paper.

After giving a dozen items to the couple, OHUHU felt like he had done a lot of good deeds today.

\'I feel great! I think my prison term will be lessened by a few years after today!\'

[The Swan Goddess disagrees with OHUHUHOHOHU. The prison term has been extended by two million years.]

Miaomiao held back his laughter. He smiled at OHUHU while not a single shred of guilty conscience was left in him.

"Thank you very much for your support and your guidance, Senior OHOHOHOHOHO. I hope you will be freed from this shackle soon."

\'Thanks to you, too, child. I hope you can grow strong, stronger than the chosen one that I saw.\'

"By the way, could you tell me about the chosen one? You can consider it another good deed."

\'Of course. I\'ll tell you everything.\'

Miaomiao stayed behind to listen to the story of OHUHU. As for Kang Yan, she excused herself and returned to Zhao Bao and Wei Yuan.

She informed them about their encounter with the ancient demon and invited them to visit the place.

In the end, Zhao Bao, Wei Yuan, and Kang Yan entered the OHUHU chamber and listened to his story alongside Miaomiao.

…

A day later, all of them bid the ancient tree goodbye. They returned to Siren City as they had completed every objective.

As they were flying home, Wei Yuan grumbled.

"I hate fortune tellers."

Zhao Bao laughed, "Fortune-telling is one of the ancient arts. Most of the time, the divination is wrong, though."

"Obviously! That stupid tree told us that I and my entire family were destined to be killed last year. Look at me. Am I still alive? What a load of bull crap!"

"Maybe the future he saw had already been changed. Nothing in the future is certain. That\'s why most divination is wrong."

Kang Yan was also interested in the subject. She disliked a part of OHUHU\'s story.

"He was probably just making up the entire story. How could one 5th-stage cultivator destroy both Silver Phoenix Sect and Wei Clan? That doesn\'t make any sense?"

The story of OHUHU didn\'t mention who was responsible for the destruction of the Wei Clan and Silver Phoenix Sect.

However, Miaomiao had an idea who it was. He also had a theory, a scary theory.

He thought of a theory of a multiverse or a parallel universe, where he never existed.

The universe where Xie Tian could roam free, the world that Ling Tianlong could go anywhere unhindered, and the story that Ma Moxi could restore his clan without Miaomiao\'s help might be what OHUHU had seen in his vision.

Then, Miaomiao recalled what Cernun had warned him.

[Never confront Kishin Douji in this timeline!]

Timeline!

That was the keyword!

Miaomiao felt like he had grasped onto something very important, which might be related to his existence and the motive of the Devil, who constantly bugged him to hunt all protagonists.

\'I should pay attention to multiverse theory and other timeline stories! I need to learn about their fate and their future before I start proactively chasing after them.\'

\'Also, if I have enough information, maybe I can steal their fortuitous encounters that they haven\'t found yet!\'
