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

Everyone selected you as the representative, and had you come out to handle matters and speak up. You could have refused at first, but once you agreed and then shrank away at the critical moment, what was that all about?

Among everyone there were widows and those who never married, but at this moment, they all shared one thought.

Come on, let's see who is unlucky or fortunate.

Then, the drawing began.

A small cat fishing array unfolded, and the Golden Cores each released a strand of their essence, forming a compass in the void. Afterwards, the compass began to spin randomly and eventually, stopped on one person's essence.

"Ah, congratulations, sister."

"Sister, now that you're the newcomer, don't forget about us sisters."

"Alas, sister, we're counting on you."

Coincidentally, the one chosen this time was Master Peony, one of the Immortal Sect's "Five Flowers" from the previous generation.

It was said to be coincidental because all five sisters were stunning beauties who could overthrow cities and nations with their charm, but Master Peony was the one who best matched Meng Yu's aesthetic.

Clouds long for clothes, flowers vie for beauty, the spring breeze sweeps the threshold with vivid dew.

A single branch, gorgeous and fragrant with dew, the futile heartbreak of clouds and rain over Mount Wu.

Among the Immortal Sect's "Five Flowers," Peony is the most fragrant, Peony is the most bright!

With her elegant and striking beauty, Peony Fairy stood there stunned, like a frightened rabbit.

"Tch."

Someone outside hummed twice, as others still wanted to see more excitement; who would have thought that the softest character, Master Peony, would be chosen.

The Immortal Sect's "Five Flowers" were never known for their combat skills. The former Peony Fairy had not retired because she married but had voluntarily stepped down seventy years ago, handing over her place to a junior. She was also recognized as a genuinely gentle, good person, with a character similar to Bai Qianqian's, stunningly beautiful but modest, mainly known for her contrasting charm, which had fascinated countless admirers in her time.

"I..."

Her face was red as the morning glow, but she couldn't speak.

How could it be her? The thought of the things Meng Yu played with, the disorganized contents of the Storage Bag, threw her into a greater panic.

"Alright, everyone, please leave. Time is short."

Master Taohua clapped her hands, stopping everyone's desire to continue the commotion, and sent the crowd out. Then she very solemnly addressed Peony Fairy.

"Sister, please keep your promise."

The promise was to randomly select one among five, to observe Meng Yu's basic law, but they had sworn never to reveal any information before obtaining Meng Yu's consent, and meanwhile, to fully comply with Meng Yu's orders without any defiance.

The terms were extremely harsh, the covenant very strict. If there was any violation, Meng Yu would retaliate in the cruellest way, and similarly, Fairy Taohua and others would also take drastic actions.

They had proposed this form of communication, and assured the integrity of the selection of one among five, which convinced Meng Yu to agree!

This was because, traditionally, it wasn't Meng Yu seeking everyone out, but everyone seeking Meng Yu. If there was a fallout, it was for others to make concessions, not for Meng Yu to provide assurances!

Now, Meng Yu, prioritizing the bigger picture, took the initiative to prove this; no one should cause any mischief!

As for the potential problems that might arise, that was... the price you should be prepared to pay!

"I..."

Looking at the richly dressed and notably plumper Fairy Taohua in front of her, Master Peony suddenly felt dry-mouthed.

"Don't speak out of turn; you don't have a choice."

Fairy Taohua pressed on the elder's shoulder, urging her to calm down.

"Now, first..."
