Male Inferiority and Female Supremacy in the World of Immortal Cultivation

Chapter 398: 398. Seeing you makes my legs weak

Wei Yuanling did not take long to agree to Fang Zhou’s request.

Currently, the Heavenly Sword Daily is the first and only major newspaper in the Cultivation World, with no competitors whatsoever. There’s absolutely no need to fear competition from Fang Zhou’s rather niche newspaper.

As for serializing Old Wet Base’s new work in the Male Right Vanguard, it’s not a big deal. Wei Yuanling already receives countless submissions every day, not just from the Heavenly Sword Sect, but from all over the Cultivation World, many of which are excellent articles and novels.

What gives Wei Yuanling a headache now is choosing which articles and novels to publish, not like before when there were no reserves.

Of course, Old Wet Base, being the biggest IP in the Cultivation World with countless fans, does have some impact if his new work is omitted. Yet, Wei Yuanling is able to make the decision on this matter.

After agreeing, Wei Yuanling pulled Fang Zhou aside to discuss the home delivery service he proposed last time. During this period, Wei Yuanling has already ordered the establishment of many sales points across the Cultivation World.

The results of these sales points are very good, with a large number of customers preordering from the mall at these points, causing Taobao Mall’s sales to surge by at least 40%, and it’s continually rising with no end in sight.

Wei Yuanling is making a fortune solely from the shipping fees, so much so that manpower is running short. Many idling disciples of the Heavenly Sword Sect have all been dispatched to deliver goods, running around the world.

Due to an agreement between Fang Zhou and Wei Yuanling, aside from the mall’s product listings, the sales points can only sell Fang Zhou’s comics and collection of works in physical form.

These two were almost instantly sold out as soon as they hit the shelves, sparking explosive sales volume.

After settling the profits, the silver was too much and heavy, so it had to be exchanged for the far more valuable Silver Scale Jade, which Wei Yuanling has sent to Moon Viewing Peak.

Such a large sum of money made even the experienced and knowledgeable Wei Yuanling feel a bit dizzy.

Wei Yuanling looked at Fang Zhou with an enamored gaze, practically drooling, as if he could devour him in one bite.

This is a bona fide God of Wealth, someone with the ability of turning stones into gold. With just a random idea, he can earn an astonishing fortune, faster than robbing a bank.

If only he could swallow him whole, he could live atop a mountain of gold in his next life.

Fang Zhou ignored Wei Yuanling’s seductive gaze, though he was a bit surprised by the sales profits, not expecting cultural products to be so lucrative.

Ling Xiaoyue had swindled his disciple and then ran off to lay low, not realizing Fang Zhou could earn that money back in no time.

After discussing the arrangements for publishing the Male Right Vanguard with Wei Yuanling, Fang Zhou made a trip back to Moon Viewing Peak.

Upon seeing Fang Zhou return, Cheng Xing instinctively felt weak in the knees, her eyes darting nervously, afraid that Fang Zhou would drag her into the gourd and drain her dry again.

Indeed, the one fearing being drained dry was Cheng Xing. She already had many instances where she thought she’d die of dehydration.

Sometimes, Cheng Xing even had the courage to think of pulling her sisters in to help deal with Fang Zhou.

"Cheng Xing, I..."

Just as Fang Zhou opened his mouth, Cheng Xing immediately jumped up in fright, pleading, "Please no, I’m all sore and limp, my butt still hurts! Spare me!"

Fang Zhou: (눈_눈)

Did you misunderstand something?

After Fang Zhou explained his intention, Cheng Xing greatly sighed in relief, "You should have said so earlier, I thought you were going to..."

Fang Zhou sneered sarcastically, "Thought I was going to do what?"

Cheng Xing broke into a cold sweat, suddenly turned and ran off, screaming, "Help!!"

Fang Zhou unhurriedly took out the gourd and sucked the fleeing Cheng Xing inside, following her in.

Hearing the noise, Da Wa Hong Tang and San Wa Huang Lian hurried over, only to see the gourd left on the bed.

Soon, Fang Zhou and Cheng Xing emerged from the gourd. Fang Zhou looked fresh and invigorated, while Cheng Xing was sprawled on the bed with eyes rolled back, her clothes soaking with sweat, as if she had undergone numerous ironman triathlons, exhausted like a dead dog.

In this situation, Hong Tang and Huang Lian were unbothered, as Cheng Xing’s relationship with Fang Zhou was no secret among the gourd sisters.

Initially, they had wondered if Cheng Xing would make Fang Zhou give up and flee, but later realized it was Cheng Xing who fled.

Hong Tang poured a glass of water for Cheng Xing, then advised Fang Zhou, "Can’t you hold back a little? Cheng Xing runs off whenever she sees you now."

Beside them, Huang Lian also cast a look of disdain and challenge at Fang Zhou.

Fang Zhou felt embarrassed; he honestly just planned to teach Cheng Xing a lesson today, not expecting to be caught by her family.

"Rest assured, I’ll restrain myself in the future, allow Cheng Xing to rest well for a period."

Under the two disgruntled glares, Fang Zhou had no choice but to promise to avoid misunderstandings of being a human drill machine who gets antsy without pounding daily.

Originally, he intended to have Cheng Xing compile the Male Right Vanguard, but seeing her exhausted self on the bed, he promptly dismissed the idea.

Cheng Xing was too busy at the moment, drawing two comics a day, writing the second volume of "Ten Thousand Magical Treasures," and training in the illusion, she hardly had time to work on a newspaper.

Moreover, having her, a female, write a male-focused newspaper wasn’t suitable. Her thought process wouldn’t produce what Fang Zhou wanted.

After considering for a while, Fang Zhou left Moon Viewing Peak to seek Gou Cheng at Heavenly Sword Peak.

Fang Zhou dared not openly go to find Gou Cheng now, or else rumors like "Fang Zhou Responds to Gou Cheng’s Confession," "Same-Sex True Love? Fang Zhou Abandons Yu Qing for Gou Cheng" would surely arise tomorrow.

So, he had to find Copper Refining Mage Lu Qiuling to help call Gou Cheng out discreetly.

"Boss, you’ve been as elusive as a Divine Dragon lately, it’s difficult just to see you and help solve your troubles!"

Lu Qiuling, upon seeing Fang Zhou, immediately expressed what sounded like a complaint but was actually a show of loyalty.

Lu Qiuling had been clinging to Ling Xiaoyue’s coattails, planning to deal with this master-disciple duo from both sides.

But who would’ve thought Ling Xiaoyue would flee without a word, leaving Lu Qiuling dumbfounded, with all her previous efforts in vain.

Thankfully, Fang Zhou hadn’t forgotten this first bootlicker to join him, assigning her the position of selling Muscle Softening Liquid on Taobao Mall.

Fang Zhou asked Lu Qiuling to secretly call Gou Cheng out, which made Lu Qiuling widen her eyes in surprise, "Boss, are you really with Senior Brother Gou Cheng..."

Mid-sentence, she immediately covered her mouth with both hands.

Fang Zhou smiled and said, "Keep talking, why stop?"

Lu Qiuling shook her head frantically, indicating she’d suddenly forgotten what she just said.

Fang Zhou snorted coldly, "If you dare spread any nonsense, I’ll send you to dig dung in Yunshan City, believe it?"

Lu Qiuling believed it wholeheartedly. With Fang Zhou’s current influence, not only digging dung, swimming in it would be no problem.

Despite being curious about Fang Zhou and Gou Cheng’s relationship, for the sake of her little life, Lu Qiuling decided to take this secret to her grave, perhaps revealing it in a few years.
