Becoming evil makes you ten times stronger, but becoming a demon gives you hundredfold strength

Meng Yu knew that if she ever encountered any problems, everyone would be plunged into a dire situation, not only unable to return, but after more than a year, they would all die under the Moon God Contract. How could they not be worried?

Therefore, Meng Yu had Fairy Taohua speak with everyone again.

Thus, there was a second visit.

"Five elder sisters."

It was the same as last time, where five Golden Core cultivators had been chosen to meet Meng Yu, looking at those five Golden Elixir Big Sisters as beautiful as flowers and as charming as jade... Meng Yu sighed.

These were not newcomers like Fairy Taohua, who had only achieved their Golden Core a few decades or a hundred years ago. They were all either at the middle stage of Golden Core or venerable and well-respected old Golden Core Masters, such as the former Master Peony, who was very amiable and had helped countless people.

"Please, come in."

The five Golden Cores paid their respects to Meng Yu before entering. They weren't here to force the palace, but to solve a problem.

Meng Yu had always been cautious, fearing that a reckless person would arise among the Golden Cores, those who believe 'my fate is in my hands, not decreed by heaven,' or 'heaven's fate is in my house,' who would then leave the main group in search of Secret Manuals and Divine Artifacts or surprise everyone with a sudden twist.

Thanks to the mutual help among the team members, such things had not occurred. But if Meng Yu continued to cause everyone concern, there would inevitably be trouble later on.

The room was very tidy. After every night of wild revelry, it was cleaned with spells, but Meng Yu could see that some of the Golden Cores had flushed cheeks... Well, yes, in the obscene and nefarious words of some Golden Cores, Meng Yu's battlefield covered the entire house.

"Thank you, elder sisters, for your concern. Now, let's draw straws."

Meng Yu spoke indifferently, while the five Golden Cores remained silent.

Actually, Meng Yu didn't need to continue explaining. Fortunately, with Fairy Taohua mediating and communicating with everyone, they found a resolution.

For many significant matters that couldn't be disclosed for fear of leaks, it was best to find a few highly respected individuals, let them in on the truth, and then use their personal reputations as a guarantee to smoothly push things forward.

And that's what Meng Yu was doing now.

She couldn't tell everyone about the one to one hundred time ratio, but as the annihilation of the Eternal Night Palace approached, along with everyone's return, the discrepancy in time between the two sides would also be revealed. Since that was the case, this secret was one that could be shared. So, under the current circumstances, choosing someone trustworthy to be that venerable individual, someone who could personally participate once and then come back to reassure everyone, was the key to resolving the problem.

"Can't all five go together?"

Suddenly, there was a voice from the doorway where the nosy Golden Cores were poking their heads around. No one knew who had blurted that out.

The five Golden Core Elder Sisters had entered, and as a result, a large crowd of onlookers had gathered outside. After all, they were all Golden Cores and good sisters, and Meng Yu didn't put on airs in her daily life.

"Yes, yes, if it's about witnessing, why can't all five witness together!"

"Just cover your faces, and it's as if nothing happened!"

"This isn't right, Ah Yu is being too wronged!"

A chaotic cacophony came from outside the door. Those Golden Core women, who feared not the disorder in the world, each uttered bizarre and strange things, especially the more daring ones who even used voice-changing techniques, making comments that would turn someone's face red!

Well, the Wood Element Golden Cores were indeed mostly females with few males, and since Mirror twelve had taken away most of the male Golden Cores, with this many people left, the chatter was endless, and you couldn't even pinpoint who was speaking.

"Cough cough."

Meng Yu coughed.

Of course, Meng Yu didn't have such a big appetite to have all five Golden Elixir Big Sisters join her, oh no, that is to let them know the secret of the different flow of time.

One person could be pinned down as the responsible party. Five people—and Meng Yu was not one to ignore the seriousness of the situation.

For the sake of fairness and to assure the Golden Cores, there were no private deals or clandestine arrangements. The five Golden Elixir Big Sisters would draw lots using the "fishing with a kitten" method; whoever was unlucky... Yes, these were Meng Yu's exact words, not who was lucky, but who was unlucky, would join Meng Yu in a "silver party," oh no, that is Meng Yu would share some of her secret cards with her, allowing her to observe how she practiced her cultivation techniques and Divine Refinement!

Even though everyone wore strange expressions when Meng Yu spoke these words, no one objected. Alright, close the door, the room turned into one male and four females, and then one Big Sister observed Meng Yu's cultivation process. She came out to tell everyone that she understood the situation and had seen Meng Yu's treasure—many believed that Meng Yu likely possessed some sort of Holy Artifact or the like.

"You bunch of dirty-minded fellows, stop talking nonsense. Whoever doesn't agree, just stay there. Ah Yu has a special cultivation technique. She just can't disclose it openly. Just wait for the outcome."

Fairy Taohua stopped those who wanted to speak nonsensically, as well as some ne'er-do-wells who were itching to act, those bad friends who always wanted to convert Meng Yu from private to public use, even at the cost of tarnishing her reputation or sacrificing themselves without hesitation!

"Elder sisters, it has been said. If anyone hesitates, you can still back out. Is there anyone?"

Meng Yu asked desperately. She didn't have a better idea!

If there was enough time, she could explain slowly, but now she needed to cut the Gordian knot and prevent trouble at home!

Although the five Golden Cores were a bit red in the face or slightly uneasy at heart, not a single one backed down.

Everyone was not some twenty or thirty-year-old maiden. So-called innocence, chastity, or shyness had all given way to responsibility.
