After giving a beating to several martial officials, Wang Xiaoqiang vented his anger, set everything aside, and set off with his army.

Thirty-one Myriad Circle Spirit Formations, eleven Thousand-Position Spirit Formations, and nearly a million troops magnificently departed from Liuu Jingtun, heading towards the territory of the Loose Cultivators.

Wang Xiaoqiang had some knowledge of the Loose Cultivators; he had stayed in their land before, and at this moment, Wang Xiaoqiang thought of the Mirage City of Immortals.

Thinking of that aerial pavilion, his heart yearned for it, and he secretly thought, "That Mirage City of Immortals is on the Loose Cultivators' land. Why not go and invade it, seize it for myself? This way, I can both satisfy myself and strike a blow to the Loose Cultivators—a win-win situation!"

With this in mind, Wang Xiaoqiang ordered the troops to change direction, heading towards the Mirage City of Immortals.

Along the way, they encountered not a few Loose Cultivators. Seeing such a grand army, those Loose Cultivators naturally avoided them, and Wang Xiaoqiang did not trouble them. Killing a few Loose Cultivators would be of no use and meaning, only resulting in unnecessary slaughter.

Finally, in the evening of that day.

Wang Xiaoqiang's troops arrived at the Mirage City of Immortals.

As the sky gradually darkened, the heavens became bustling, like a marketplace.

In the sky appeared a series of buildings, carved beams and painted pillars, eight-cornered eaves, gold-plated and jade-inlaid, extraordinarily magnificent, like palaces of jade towers, neatly arranged in two rows with a space as wide as a highway in between them.

It's unknown what materials those magnificent buildings were made of, surprisingly floating in mid-air without falling. Inside the beautiful buildings, goods were displayed, there were pill shops, clothing stores, restaurants, wine shops, weapon shops... people were also setting up stalls and doing business, with many shoppers around.

Gazing at the Mirage City of Immortals, Wang Xiaoqiang's subordinates all had a look of awe and admiration, their hearts longing.

Wang Xiaoqiang pointed at the splendid aerial pavilion and said, "Brothers, that is the Mirage City of Immortals, isn't it beautiful?"

"Beautiful, so beautiful!" Several personal guards exclaimed excitedly.

"That street is the Heavenly Street, do any of you want to browse the Heavenly Street?" Wang Xiaoqiang pointed at the Heavenly Avenue.

"We want to, very much!" The personal guards and leaders chorused.

"Good, everyone follow me, surround the Mirage City of Immortals, expel all Loose Cultivators, and then this Mirage City of Immortals will be ours. Haha..."

As soon as Wang Xiaoqiang's words fell, the army roared into action, immediately surrounding the Mirage City of Immortals completely.

The Loose Cultivator army on the Heavenly Street in the Mirage City of Immortals was suddenly attacked and surrounded, scaring them out of their wits, scrambling like ants on a hot pot, all with a look of panic and misery.

At this time, some courageous Loose Cultivators even rushed to the high sky, shouting curses, "What thieving army dares to disturb the Mirage City of Immortals... completely disregarding us Loose Cultivators?"

Wang Xiaoqiang also flew into the high sky, confronting those few Loose Cultivators from afar. Seeing they were merely at the Immortal Venerable Stage, he sneered disdainfully, "Haha, yes, exactly disregarding you. If you're wise, quickly scram from here, or there's only one way — death."

Those few Loose Cultivators saw Wang Xiaoqiang was at the Immortal King Stage, and were so scared they dared not utter a fart, glaring at Wang Xiaoqiang angrily before flying off.

Wang Xiaoqiang did not trouble them either, shouting to the Loose Cultivators scrambling below on the Heavenly Street, "People below, listen up. If you don't want to die, quickly get out of the Mirage City of Immortals."

As soon as Wang Xiaoqiang's words fell, the Loose Cultivators below fled in panic, all leaving the Mirage City of Immortals, then hurried away.

In the end, the vast Mirage City of Immortals became empty, like a ghost town.

The army roared into action, occupying the Mirage City of Immortals.

"Haha, this Mirage City of Immortals is really nice." Walking onto the Heavenly Street of the Mirage City of Immortals, several personal guards said happily, and soldiers scrambled to grab the items Loose Cultivators had abandoned on the Heavenly Street, shouting joyfully. Wang Xiaoqiang didn't restrain them, entering a restaurant accompanied by several personal guards, indulging in food and drink.

Finally, all the goods on the Mirage City of Immortals and the Heavenly Street, like treasures, pills... all belonged to Wang Xiaoqiang's army. Wang Xiaoqiang ordered them to be distributed, and the soldiers gained quite a substantial haul.

Beneath the Mirage City of Immortals is White Cloud City.

Several years ago, Wang Xiaoqiang killed people in the Mirage City of Immortals, intimidating all Loose Cultivators, causing his infamous reputation to spread overnight.

The next day, he was invited by the Young City Lord Xia Junjie to White Cloud City, becoming his Guest Elder. Later, due to verbal conflict, Wang Xiaoqiang abducted White Cloud City's singular young lady Xia Dieyu, taking her to the Barren Mountain for certain activities. As a result, the Young City Lord Xia Junjie not only didn't blame him but also praised him for his cleverness.

Then, the White Cloud City Lord Xia Hou fell critically ill, and several Young City Lords fought for supremacy, Wang Xiaoqiang participated, eventually causing mutual massacres among the Young City Lords, Xia Junjie laughed till the end.

It was at this moment that Wang Xiaoqiang turned against his ally, stabbed Xia Junjie to death, killed Xia Hou, and became the White Cloud City Lord.

Later, because a lady from Xia Family tried to assassinate Wang Xiaoqiang, Wang Xiaoqiang publicly violated her and obtained the Sun-Shooting Bow of Chiba Sect.

Chiba Sect members came continuously to demand the return of the bow, Wang Xiaoqiang captured Lady Chiba. When Chiba Clan's experts came seeking revenge, Wang Xiaoqiang had to leave White Cloud City.

Now, returning to this old place, Wang Xiaoqiang looked down from a restaurant window at White Cloud City, recalling scenes from back then, feeling emotional, wondering who the City Lord of White Cloud City was now?

Perhaps this question would be answered tomorrow.

Visiting old places again, Wang Xiaoqiang was very excited, especially wandering Heavenly Street at night was truly an enjoyment.

After eating and drinking his fill, Wang Xiaoqiang walked out from the restaurant, didn't call for anyone to accompany him, and strolled alone along Heavenly Street. While walking, he moved his willpower, releasing Ann Miaoyi from the Sumeru Ring.

After going through several ordeals, Ann Miaoyi became more mature. Now, she no longer resisted Wang Xiaoqiang, becoming docile.

Because she knew clearly that her father had been defeated and killed, she had become the daughter of a renegade, regarded as an enemy by everyone, and the Yellow Dragon Empire no longer had a place for her.

Even if Wang Xiaoqiang let her go now, she wouldn't live long; sooner or later, she would be killed by her father's old enemies.

So, in order to continue living, to live well, she must be good, stay close to Wang Xiaoqiang, and win his favor.

With this thought, although Ann Miaoyi still held hostility towards Wang Xiaoqiang, she dared not show it and tried to maintain a gentle and likable appearance, deliberately dressing herself up, hoping Wang Xiaoqiang wouldn't grow weary of her, and moreover wished to bear Wang Xiaoqiang a child,

Beautiful flowers don't last a hundred days, women cannot stay youthful forever; when she's older, she will be abandoned. But if she bore Wang Xiaoqiang's child, she would be nobler because of the child. She believed that even if Wang Xiaoqiang grew tired of her, he wouldn't abandon her.
