Paragon of Sin
chapter-423

Karmic Luck Value: 982.0 → 944.6.

First Calamity: Survived - 7/7.

Second Calamity: Suppressed - 7 Years.

"..." Wei Wuyin observed this change, trying to pinpoint where this source of Karmic Luck would manifest as, but he didn't receive any indication or clues regarding it in his mind. Typically, the deduction of karmic luck would be followed by the Heavenly Daos' attempt to influence his thoughts, leaning him towards a certain direction. The Bloodline of Sin alerted him of this, even revealing the details.

As for now? He felt none of that, but the reduction of karmic luck was clearly there. It took a few seconds of recollection before he recalled something, and it was regarding Bai Lin. That magnificent white crane that had eaten a golden fruit that later instigated its evolution into a phoenix.

Recalling Bai Lin, he temporarily grew melancholic, missing her presence in his life. Fortunately, he knew she'd be back soon after completing her evolution, and refocused his mind. He knew it was possible that this karmic luck event had something to do with someone connected to him.

He always speculated that Long Chen had used his Karmic Luck to obtain his harem, and then used more karmic luck to benefit them, leading to rapid exhaustion. This was a thought of his when he first saw them, as if it originated instinctively from the Bloodline of Sin. He had many intuitions about karmic luck that seemed to feel natural, as if he was right just from thinking about it.

The Karmic Luck being consumed by others linked to him or other Blessed was definitely a possibility, and he'd experienced it before. He might've experienced it numerous times actually. He couldn't be certain due to his consciousness being trapped in his Mind's Eye, but it was likely his karmic luck was taken for Du Ling and Su Mei while he was in the Eden Earth Sect.

It seemed to be a rare occurrence, but one that occurred nevertheless. After frowning with contemplation, he activated his Celestial Eyes of Spiritual Divinity's Eye of Truth, glimpsing into the waves of worldly flow and trend, seeing if he could gather a bit of information.

Then, he knew. The ominous ripples he had observed before had been reduced. Somewhere, somehow, Da Shan or Qing Qiumu, one of them, had just stumbled upon a lucky chance that might be connected to him in some way. He didn't know the exact details, but one of them was no longer in any danger. In fact, they might greatly benefit from this.

With a breath of relief, he returned to his interrogation. Regardless of what they experienced or how they'd benefit, at least they were safe. He knew the inherent dangers of this world was much greater than he'd expected, with experts in this world that exceeded the limits of their starfield. He had met a Realmlord in one of the twelve cities!

He couldn't imagine how strong those top forces in this world were. Timelords? Starlords? There were even mysterious outsiders with profound strength, definitely exceeding the Astral Core Realm, lingering in this world realm for some reason.

The more he learned of this, the more he felt the ruination of the statfield, the trend of the world, likely had a deep and inseparable connection to this World Realm. He had a few theories, but he felt there was no need to indulge idle thoughts until he grasped the situation a little more.

He turned his attention to the 'former' City Lord, "Tell me about the twelve cities. Everything you know."

Several hours later, Wei Wuyin was situated in the former bedroom of the City Lord inside the tower. It was extremely minimalistic, bringing a shock to Wei Wuyin. The room only had some windows, a large-sized bed, a chair and table for sitting and reading. It lacked the taste of a wealthy ruler, causing Wei Wuyin to realize the City Lord likely hated fancy ornaments or designs.

He respected that preference. It reminded him of his bedroom in the Scarlet Solaris Sect. Besides a bed, an area for his cauldron, and a chair and reading table, there was nothing else. He had changed his own preference when he was bestowed the title of Inheritor of Sin, feeling like he should enjoy life more.

But he still enjoyed this type of environment, nonetheless.

He was still carrying Ai Juling in his arms. She seemed to remain quiet and comfortably observed everything from his arms. He didn't know whether to laugh or cry, because she had hung onto him while 'fully awake' for hours, simply watching his questioning of the City Lord. He had even tried to place her down, but she tightly held onto his neck in defiance.

He really didn't know what to do. Now that they were alone, isolated in the bedroom, he felt an urge to throw her to the bed. He turned to her, who was using her light-brown eyes to observe the bedroom, seemingly judging it as lacking from her expression.

"Are you planning to stay in my arms forever?" Wei Wuyin asked with a teasing smile.

Ai Juling was jolted out of her inspection, turning her head to look at Wei Wuyin's bright smile. She pouted indignantly, "You've held me like this for a week, so what if I am?"

Despite her words, Wei Wuyin found that she was unbearably cute, possessing a unique charm that lit his inner flame. He responded with an ambiguous glint in his eyes, "Then, we'll have to take it to the next level."

Witnessing Wei Wuyin's insinuating light flickering within his eyes, she didn't turn away or blush as one would expect from a girl who's been teased. Instead, she wrapped her arm around his neck.

This shocked Wei Wuyin for a moment, but before he could react, Ai Juling leaned in and placed her soft, delicate lips against his own. Her mouth was brazen as she pressed herself against him, moving animatedly, clearly taking the lead.

Wei Wuyin wasn't one to reject such an invitation, he replied in kind. They spent the next minute enthralled by the others' touch, kissing without restraint. When Ai Juling finally separated, a lingering trace of wetness was still connected to the two's lips. She licked it off, making her extremely enchanting as her eyes were misty.

Wei Wuyin felt his inner fire ignite, immediately placing her on the bed large enough to fit five men, and pressed his lips against hers again. He tasted her flavor, smelled her fragrant scent, and without waiting a moment longer, his hands roamed around her body in a rough caress. When he touched a certain area, he heard a heart-quaking moan escape her lips.

"W-wait…!" She breathily called out, her entire body already extremely hot.

Wei Wuyin was already invested, but he wasn't selfish nor completely bullish after engaging in some minor foreplay. Lifting his head, he looked at this beauty beneath him.

Ai Juling's reddened blush on her bronze-colored skin was extremely gorgeous. She puckered her lips, matching his gaze with her own. She asked with a quiver in her voice, "Did you kill my parents?"

"..."

That…

That almost killed the mood, but Wei Wuyin merely laughed and shook his head. "Of course not." He had made it his mission not to harm anyone tainted with her aura, and even left the city to prevent a clash that might cause her parents to be casualties.

When Ai Juling heard this, she breathed out a sigh of relief.

Wei Wuyin was quite curious, "You took the initiative, but you suspected I killed your parents? Why?" He lifted himself up and sat beside her on the bed.

Ai Juling felt somewhat awkward when Wei Wuyin asked this, causing her eyes to roam and see that frightening tent protruding from his pants. She gasped for a moment, reddened even more, but couldn't turn her eyes away.

Seeing this, Wei Wuyin chuckled with amusement.

Ai Juling snapped out of her idle thoughts, but the faint quivering of her legs betrayed her excited and indecent thoughts. She pouted with a tinge of anger, "You kidnapped me! You clearly did it because you wanted me, and if you were an ordinary Ganshu at your cultivation level, I'd rather die than be with you.

"I can't resist you, that's clear. But I can also see that you're not an indecent, sex-craven man who merely intended to take my body and kill me after you're finished with it. If you were, it would've been easy to get away from those three stooges and awaken me, indulging yourself until satisfied and kill me off, no one would have spoken against it. You have the strength to do so, and its not uncommon amongst Elves or Ganshu. Desires are desires.

"Since you have the strength, talent, looks, and your intent isn't vicious, and you want me for more than just a single night, why would I reject you? And if you did kill my parents, then I could only accept it, but I'd hate you with my entire being." At the end of her rant, she seemed to have conceded to a certain reality while rationalizing the situation.

Wei Wuyin felt intrigued by her thought process. Was that why she pretended to be asleep? To see if he could control his urges? Was she observing him? Testing him?

She continued, "I just hope you don't restrict my cultivation or keep me by your side like a pet. I can become yours, but I want my own life! I also have no intention of marrying a Ganshu! But, I won't be with anyone lesser than you; I can promise you that."

Ai Juling seemed to still have her own pride, and was quite a realist. She used words like 'hope' and 'want', clearly knowing that Wei Wuyin was the true deciding factor of those decisions.

Wei Wuyin gently smiled, "I knew I'd like you."

Ai Juling rolled her eyes, but in her heart, she was incredibly startled by Wei Wuyin. While she was knocked unconscious by him, taken away, she felt it extremely strange after witnessing his feats after.

Why would such an outstanding Ganshu want a simple talent like her? She wasn't the most beautiful elf in the city nor the most talented. Why would Wei Wuyin, someone with ungodly looks, talent that went against the heavens, strength that defied common sense, and means that shook the world, want her?

He could have any female in this city, likely in this entire world. Who would reject a young Soul Idol cultivator that could slay a Gravity Emission expert? Who could take over an entire city? Trap a Realmlord? He was a catch and a half multiplied by ten thousand!

But he wanted her?

HER?!

She felt like this was a dream, an epic story about an ordinary girl taken away by an evil king with a soft heart. She had read stories of this nature before, even fantasized about it, but to think something extremely similar could happen in real life?!

Just as she was lost in her thoughts, she felt a pair of hands lifting her body, bringing her into a certain someone's lap with her legs spread around his torso. She felt the heaven piercing-like protrusion hidden in his pants pressing against her bottom, her expression became even hotter after.

When he leaned forward to kiss her, she didn't resist.

She knew today was the day she was made into a woman.
