Chapter 313: She’s Been Cuckolded! Gu Yunyun’s Been Cuckolded!

Watching the fervent discussion among countless cultivators, the Jade Pond Saint Master couldn’t suppress her sense of superiority.

She felt the urge to show off a little.

Opening the post editor, she composed a Weibo post and published it directly. “Fourteen days ago, the Heavenly Origin Saint Master personally informed me about the features of the new app. He even specially updated my Heavenly Origin Little Spirit Communicator in advance.

“I’ve been using the new app for over ten days.

“Though I can’t reveal the specifics, I can guarantee the new app will not disappoint. Every cultivator will find it utterly captivating.”

The Jade Pond Saint Master’s follower count on Weibo was second only to Ye Chen, with a mere one billion fewer fans than him.

As soon as her post went live, it immediately garnered widespread attention from countless cultivators.

The revelation that the Jade Pond Saint Master had known about the new app’s features for over ten days — and even received an early update — sparked endless speculation.

After all, ever since the Eastern Sea conflict ended, rumors about her and Ye Chen had been rampant on Weibo.

Both were leaders of sacred lands.

The Heavenly Origin Saint Master was the strongest of the current era, while the Jade Pond Saint Master was known as the number one beauty.

In terms of status, prestige, and appearance, they were a perfect match.

Some even called them a heavenly couple.

Now, with the Jade Pond Saint Master receiving such exclusive treatment, who wouldn’t think there was something special between them?

Countless cultivators began commenting under her post:

“Saint Master, what exactly is the new app? I’m so curious!”

“You got to experience the new app ten days early?! The Heavenly Origin Saint Master treats you so well!”

“The strongest and the most beautiful — a match made in heaven. Wishing you two a blissful eternity!”

“She’s been cuckolded! Gu Yunyun’s been cuckolded…”

“With such high praise for the new app, I’m even more eager to know what it is! Saint Master, please give us a hint!”

Reading the comments, especially those declaring her and Ye Chen a heavenly couple and wishing them eternal happiness, the Jade Pond Saint Master’s stunning face lit up with a radiant smile.

She even couldn’t resist giving a few comments a “like” and pinning them.

Her post quickly gained traction, and two new trending topics emerged:

“The Jade Pond Saint Master’s Early Update.”

“Gu Clan Leader’s Been Cuckolded!”

The buzz was unprecedented.

Meanwhile, in Mingwang Province, Yan Bailu stopped mid-stride upon noticing the trending topics.

Furrowing her delicate brows, she thought for a moment before posting her own Weibo update. “I also got the early update!”

She attached a screenshot to the post.

The image clearly showed an extra app compared to everyone else’s, but the screenshot was deliberately cropped, revealing only a partial icon.

The app’s name and details were completely obscured.

Yan Bailu wasn’t an active Weibo user, having posted only once before.

But her verified profile as the supreme leader of a major sect in Mingwang Province and a top-tier late-stage Deity Transformation female cultivator brought her immense attention.

Her fame was further bolstered by the widely circulated story of her slaying Daoist Huangpu with a single sword strike on Penglai Island — a feat that dominated trending topics in Great Yan Province for days.

With over four hundred million followers, her post immediately appeared on countless cultivators’ Weibo homepages.

As they read the content, jaws collectively dropped.

The Sword Fairy Yan Bailu had also received the early update, just like the Jade Pond Saint Master?

The implications were wild.

Could Yan Bailu, too, share a special relationship with the Heavenly Origin Saint Master?

Upon reflection, it seemed plausible. Yan Bailu had no personal grievances with Daoist Huangpu, yet she abruptly struck him down.

Surely, it was on behalf of the Heavenly Origin Saint Master.

Likewise, the Heavenly Origin Saint Master’s decision to entrust the overseas trade to the Celestial Sword Sect must have been influenced by Yan Bailu.

One was the strongest in Great Yan Province.

The other was a top-tier female genius cultivator in Mingwang Province.

Their mutual admiration and shared experiences could easily lead to romantic sparks.

Countless cultivators let their imaginations run wild, driving the post’s popularity even higher.

Soon, two new trending topics appeared:

“Sword Fairy Yan Bailu Also Got the Update.”

“Foreign Female Cultivators, Hands Off Our Men!”

The revelation that both women had received special early access threw the Immortal Net Weibo into chaos.

Typically, whenever the Heavenly Origin Saint Master announced a Little Spirit Communicator update, the number one trending topic would focus on the new features.

This time, however, the top trend was different.

“Gu Clan Leader’s Been Cuckolded” skyrocketed to the top.

After all, everyone knew Gu Yunyun was supposed to be the Heavenly Origin Saint Master’s destined Dao companion.

Yet now, the Saint Master seemed to have ambiguous ties with two top-tier female cultivators.

Clearly, Gu Yunyun had been cuckolded.

At that moment, Gu Yunyun was busy overseeing her clan’s expansion efforts.

Ye Chen had entrusted most of the Heavenly Origin Little Spirit Communicator’s future outsourcing operations to the Gu Clan.

As a result, the clan had been working non-stop in recent days, with no time for rest.

Even Gu Yunyun herself hadn’t been able to visit Ye Chen.

While deciding which immortal peak to develop next, she noticed her elders casting her worried, hesitant glances.

Frowning slightly, she demanded an explanation.

Upon learning the truth, her frown eased, and she broke into a smile.

“Patriarch, are you alright?”

The elders were especially concerned.

The Gu Clan was now thriving.

Whether in terms of resources, the number of experts, or their backing, they had reached their peak.

It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to call them the strongest faction below the sacred lands.

And all of this was thanks to the Heavenly Origin Saint Master.

If he truly turned his affections elsewhere, it would undoubtedly be a huge blow to the Gu Clan.

Yet Gu Yunyun showed no worry.

Waving her hand, she signaled the elders not to overthink things.

Then, she leisurely opened her Immortal Net Weibo.

First, she looked at the post from the Jade Pond Saint Master, Yu Youwei.

Then, she read Yan Bailu’s post.

She even gave both posts a “like.”

Just from their posts, it was evident what the two women felt toward Ye Chen.

However, Gu Yunyun had anticipated this long ago.

With Ye Chen’s excellence, it was unlikely she could have him all to herself.

But not being able to monopolize him didn’t mean she would allow others to step over her.

Ye Chen could have other women, but the world must know that she was his first Dao partner.

The others? They came after her.

A gentle smile curved Gu Yunyun’s delicate lips as she composed a post:

“@Jade Pond Saint Master

@Yan Bailu

I’ve seen the effort you’ve put into helping my husband improve the new app. He’s been quite busy lately, so I’ll thank you both on his behalf here. At the same time, I’d like to extend an invitation: Two years from now, on the 6th day of the 6th month — on Ascension Day — it will be the day of my grand ceremony with my husband. I warmly welcome both of you as esteemed guests to witness it.”

The moment Gu Yunyun’s post went live, Immortal Net Weibo erupted once more.

She didn’t bother showing off an early update screenshot to compete with the other two women.

Instead, she directly asserted her position as the leading woman, thanking them for their contributions.

The hierarchy was clear. They were merely helpers. She and Ye Chen were the true pair.

To cap it all, she announced her wedding date with Ye Chen, silencing all doubts and solidifying her status as the main wife.

Comments under her post flooded in:

“So the Jade Pond Saint Master and the Sword Fairy were just helping out? That explains the early update.”

“Back when the Heavenly Origin Saint Master beat up the Great Mystery Saint Master for proposing to Lady Gu and even killed Mo Hanshan after his Deity Transformation breakthrough, it was clear how deeply he cared for her.”

“Getting married on Ascension Day — what a perfect choice. Wishing the Saint Master and Lady Gu a shared ascent to the immortal realm.”

“Lady Gu and the Heavenly Origin Saint Master are the true match made in heaven!”

The tides of public opinion on Immortal Net Weibo shifted instantly.

Within the Jade Pond Sacred Land, the Jade Pond Saint Master bit her lip gently, her melodious voice ringing out, “Two years… I still have time to become the first…”

Meanwhile, in the Heavenly Sword Sect, Yan Bailu swung her jade-like feet idly as she stared at the wedding date, a slight frown forming on her face.

After this subtle confrontation among the three women, Immortal Net Weibo grew even more animated.

Cultivators speculated more fervently about the upcoming update to the Heavenly Origin Little Spirit Communicator app.

“I think the new app is for posting missions, so you can hire experts to deal with people!”

“Wow, the one above has a great idea! An app to hire strong cultivators? I’d love that.”

“Maybe it’s for delivering spiritual meals. We already have apps for cargo delivery, so why not one for spiritual meals?”

Time passed slowly.

As the next day approached noon, Ye Chen opened his eyes.

Flying toward the sacred land’s main hall alongside Nangong Wan, he pondered his plans.

If the update rollout went smoothly, he would enter seclusion to prepare for a perfect breakthrough.

On the way, Nangong Wan looked at Ye Chen with satisfaction and nodded.

“Yunyun is truly impressive. I used to worry her cultivation wasn’t high enough to hold her own.

Now, I’m no longer concerned. You have a good eye.”

Ye Chen was momentarily taken aback.

Flipping through Weibo, he quickly understood what had happened and chuckled.

Indeed, while Gu Yunyun often appeared shy and delicate around him, she was poised and dignified in public.

She could easily suppress petty rivals with elegance and composure.

A woman who was mature, gentle at home, and commanding outside was truly one of a kind.

At the thought, Ye Chen felt a surge of affection.

Perhaps he should visit Yunyun before entering seclusion for his perfect breakthrough.

Changing the subject, Ye Chen asked, “Master, how many techniques have you uploaded in the past few days?”

Hearing this, Nangong Wan’s crescent-moon eyes sparkled with pride.

“I’ve uploaded a total of 120 techniques. One of them is a high-grade Heaven-tier technique that can be cultivated from Qi Refinement Realm all the way to the Great Ascension stage. With this technique, I might earn several million spirit stones in royalties each year!”

Ye Chen was momentarily stunned.

A Heaven-tier high-grade technique?

And a complete set from Qi Refinement to Great Ascension?

Such a technique could easily be considered one of the most prestigious in Great Yan Province.

Where had his master acquired it?

With such a resource, earning hundreds of thousands or even millions annually wasn’t far-fetched.

It seemed his master wouldn’t need to borrow spirit stones from him anymore.

As these thoughts crossed his mind, the two descended into the main hall.

At this moment, it was exactly noon.

Across Great Yan Province, countless cultivators’ Little Spirit Communicator devices began updating…
