Thinking of this, Wang Mu couldn't help but frown slightly.

After getting everything ready, Wang Mu flew on his sword.

This time, he used the Dayan Unlimited Sword for flight. It had to be said, the speed was incredibly different with a new Flying Sword.

Previously, the Chiyun Flying Sword was, at best, like a Mitsubishi minivan worth tens of thousands. Switching to the Dayan Unlimited Sword was like upgrading to a luxury car worth millions; the speed was worlds apart.

He flew all the way to Fengyue Small City.

This city was under the jurisdiction of Fengyue Valley, and one had to pass through it to enter the Valley itself. Under the guidance of Fengyue Sect disciples, batches of cultivators from across the Nine Provinces could pass through numerous Big Formations to reach the interior of Fengyue Valley.

As a top-tier sect on par with the Sword Sect, its true location was naturally different from that of ordinary sects. Take the Sword Sect, for example: one must reach Gu Yun Mountain, where a disciple will open the Mystic Sect, allowing entry into Gu Yun Mountain's inner realm to see the Sword Sect in its entirety. Otherwise, even if one climbed Gu Yun Mountain, it would be impossible to enter the sect.

When Wang Mu arrived at Fengyue Small City, the place was teeming with cultivators. It was even more crowded than the previous Magpie Bridge Festival. Golden Core cultivators were everywhere, and Foundation Establishment cultivators were a dime a dozen.

Cultivators at the Nascent Soul Realm and above had cultivated for many years. Most had participated in the Magpie Bridge Festival and already had Taoist couples. Therefore, if they came, it wasn't for the Little Demon Girls of the Fengyue Sect; these cultivators were more likely here to truly temper their Taoist Hearts. Some might genuinely be here for that Gu Witch.

The Fengyue Sect's reputation is truly immense, Wang Mu mused.

He walked to the small city's only square. Many Fengyue Sect female disciples, wearing enchanting long gowns, were there, smiling charmingly as they collected details from the various cultivators and verified their identities. A Divinity Transformation Elder from the Fengyue Sect was also present, ensuring that no miscreants dared to cause trouble.

Today was the grand opening day for Fengyue Valley, and it had indeed drawn a massive crowd. However, their efficiency was high. Disciples led batches of cultivators to be teleported on the spot, presumably directly to the outskirts of Fengyue Valley.

The Fengyue Sect even has a Teleportation Big Formation… They're a bit richer than the Sword Sect… Wang Mu couldn't help but feel a slight disparity.

The Sword Sect disciples who had traveled with him had arrived a bit earlier and were perhaps already inside Fengyue Valley. As for Ye Ge and Yan Wuxin, they had arrived even faster.

Wang Mu queued in the long line and, in about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, reached the front where a female disciple was handling registrations.

"State your name, realm, origin, history of romantic destiny, and whether you have a preferred candidate in our sect..." the female disciple said without raising her head.

With a Divinity Transformation Realm Elder—an expert in Charming Techniques and Illusion Techniques—silently supervising nearby, it was easy to detect any cultivators attempting to disguise their identities with ulterior motives. The information collected was entirely for the forthcoming tests.

Before arriving, Wang Mu had considered creating an illusion or using the Heavenly Person Transformation to become someone else and hide his identity. But seeing this setup, he decided against it.

When the female disciple heard he was from the Sword Sect, she immediately chuckled.

"'Your Sword Sect really dares to send people here, huh?' The female disciple chuckled. 'Tell me, which junior sister from our Fengyue Sect has caught your eye? I'll discuss it with her, and you can join our sect directly. No need to go through any tests. You Sword Sect disciples, ah, you're just fated to be with our Fengyue Sect.'"

The cultivators behind him immediately protested.

"'Hey! We all came here seeking a match by competing for it! Why should you get a free pass?'"

Then they heard he was from the Sword Sect. Oh, well, that was a different story.

Wang Mu stayed silent.

"'Could it be that you've come to take your fellow disciples back?' the female disciple mused, then chuckled delightedly. 'I advise you to give up that idea. Your senior and junior brothers are having a wonderful time here. Even if you wanted to take them back, they might not be willing to leave.'"

Wang Mu was speechless.

What utter nonsense from this demoness!

"'You're Wang Mu from the Sword Sect, aren't you?' The nearby Fengyue Sect's Divinity Transformation Elder narrowed his eyes, sweeping his gaze over Wang Mu. 'Young man, you should return.'"

What did that mean? Wang Mu wondered.

The female disciple was also puzzled, unsure of the situation.

"'Orders from above,' the Elder stated flatly. 'Wang Mu of the Sword Sect is forbidden from participating in this Divine Pond matchmaking event. It is said that you have numerous romantic entanglements and a promiscuous nature, completely unbecoming of a Sword Sect disciple. You are not to come and corrupt the disciples of our Fengyue Sect.'"

The crowd behind them erupted in uproarious laughter.

Good heavens, he was actually rejected by the Fengyue Sect?

"'This must be the Sword Sect's counter-attack!'"

"'Who is this Wang Mu from the Sword Sect? To think he can make even Fengyue Sect disciples tremble in fear!'"

"'I thought the Fengyue Sect always delighted in luring away Sword Sect disciples? Now that one has come knocking, shouldn't they be celebrating wildly?'"

"'Tsk, the Fengyue Sect is surprisingly pure-hearted...'"

"'I really want to know just how promiscuous this fellow is... to be treated like this by the Fengyue Sect!'"

Listening to the rampant discussions, Wang Mu felt completely exasperated.

This order was ninety-nine percent likely from Mu Hongyuan. She had told him to come to Fengyue Sect to find her within a year. Yet now that he had arrived, he wasn't allowed in. The only possibility was that she didn't want him to see Brother Qin. In that case, I absolutely *must* go in!

Wang Mu thought. He hadn't wanted to use the Heavenly Person Transformation initially.

He left the city and used the Heavenly Person Transformation, changing into the appearance of Dongfang Mu.

However, this transformation wasn't into the Dongfang Mu of the Anle Village statue. Instead, he became the younger Dongfang Mu from the early stages of the game—a youth. This version of Dongfang Mu had the demeanor and temperament of a complete novice who had just stepped into the world. He only needed to make slight adjustments to his facial features, as this persona's bearing was far from the peerless, commanding presence of the Dongfang Mu statue in Anle Village.
