--- Chapter 148 ---
Cai Lin ascended to the sky slowly, staring at the thunderclouds with a small frown. As a queen-! No, an empress with sheer aura alone, she tad the thunderclouds and made them part away.
As the thunderclouds parted away, the sunlight gradually dropped on Cai Lin's body, basking her in divine-like glory.
Her body was "loosely." wrapped in a red dress.
Long, silky black hair danced softly due to the gentle breeze.
And that beautiful face attained a golden yet warm luster, making those deep red eyes and rose-like lips more prominent.
It was an incomparably beautiful sight.
Even her sisters couldn't help but open their mouths in surprise.
But the most shocked out of all was Baek Ain, who just stood there and was stunned. Cai Lin is a beautiful woman, she's literally the queen of Snake People, but this current her is just different.
Sothing about her noble aura and beauty aroused Baek Ain.
Even a thought like, "Is this really my wife?" flashed in Baek Ain's mind a few tis.
Baek Ain shook his head because the feeling of love he had for Cai Lin was quite complicated. Does he love her? Yes, without a doubt.
However, Baek Ain couldn't help but ask himself if Cai Lin really loved him back. After all, he tricked her into this very mont.
[Hehe, my Harem Protagonist's Host could be this nervous] Alicia teased casually.
[Aih, I still rember when you were nervous about getting rid of your virginity]
[Pfft, you even passed out due to high blood pressure once when you tried to make an advance on Lan Rou]
[Truly a pathetic virgin mont!]
Baek's expression darkened when hearing Alicia's teasing, especially when she ntioned the shaful mont of his past.
'Shut up, Alicia.'
[Yes, Yes. I'll shut up, tehee~!]
Baek Ain ignored Alicia and returned his gaze to Cai Lin, only to find her standing before him.
"W-What?"
Cai Lin smiled and stole his lips, surprising the three other ladies.
Even though Cai Lin always acts like an overbearing queen to others, she is quite gentle inside. Yes, she appeared bossy to assert dominance as the Mistress of the Harem.
Yet she rarely showed public intimation toward Baek Ain. Well, sothing like that is embarrassing for her.
Baek Ain felt Cai Lin's soft lips and brought his hands to her sizable rears, pulling them up.
She looked at him feverishly and said, "I missed you..."
"It's only a few days." Baek Ain returned with a chuckle.
Cai Lin smiled wryly and added, "It's just a few days for you, but three months for . Due to my Behemoth's Variants, I experienced several soul transmissions and saw a glimpse into the future."
"I tried to look further and further, but the vision is always the sa."
"Of course... I tried to look before that event, but sothing or maybe soone prevented ."
"Is this your Bloodline Ability?" Baek Ain asked while giving her a worried look.
Cai Lin nodded and replied, "Yes. It's called Endless Soul-Seeking, and I have yet to master it."
Baek Ain frowned and asked again, "Then, what vision did you see?"
"My vision..." Cai Lin fell into deep thoughts. "After you destroyed the Hall of Souls and defeated the mysterious female ghost, an invisible force appeared in the sky and pulled you away."
"The world then crumbled into oblivion..."
"..." Baek Ain blinked in surprise.
[Well, that escalated quickly] Alicia remarked in wonder.
Baek Ain is thinking about sothing. His expression is solemn because no one should be able to kill him. After all, his soul is "literally." protected by the broken innate skill that even Gods and Beings of the sa caliber couldn't break, aning that an invisible force is trying to kick him away from this world.
Unless.
Baek Ain did sothing outrageous that could break the universe's balance, which is probably the right guess.
But shouldn't the universe reward him if he killed the Mysterious Female Ghost because that woman is irregular?
How weird.
Unknown to Baek Ain, Cai Lin actually hasn't told all the visions she had experienced. She's afraid the future will divert too much and change in an unknown direction, causing a more destructive result.
There are so people Cai Lin didn't ntion as she was unfamiliar with them, and so seed infatuated with Baek Ain.
'A woman in a green dress...' Cai Lin recalled the person who sacrificed her cultivation base and blood energy to help Baek Ain.
'She also has a pink-haired disciple, but her face is sowhat blurry.'
'I have to search for them after this.'
'If they like Baek Ain and are strong enough, then I don't mind them joining the harem because we need every support to overco this uncertain future.'
Cai Lin suddenly felt Baek Ain's warm hands on her cheeks, coming out of her trance.
"Let's put this matter aside first." Baek Ain reassured her.
"While waiting for Qing Lin's return, I have planned to visit the two nearest Ancient Clans beside Gu Clan."
"And the clans are?" Cai Lin questioned, thinking of a way to help her husband.
Baek Ain smiled and replied, "Lei and Yao Clan."
"The news of Hall of Souls' Western Branch getting destroyed has been spreading, so they should be shocked one way or another."
"Striking iron while it's hot, I will offer an alliance."
"What if they rejected your offer?" Lan Rou suddenly raised a point, making Baek Ain chuckle.
Baek Ain smiled at Lan Rou, "Then I just have to beat them down to submission."
"Even though the Lei Clan's Leader is 8-Star Dou Saint, I have enough tricks to fight him equally. He's a fighting junky, so there shouldn't be much of a problem."
"As for the Yao Clan. This clan is "mainly." focused on Alchemy as their innate talents heavily lean on that field, but that doesn't an their strength is much better than Lei Clan."
"I heard they have two Heavenly Flas on their side, so doesn't that sound good for my Gno?" Baek Ain added, summoning the little brown-gold fla.
As Gno adorably danced in the air, the ladies gazed at it with an understanding expression.
Gno perhaps exceeded the top-ranked Heavenly Flas due to Baek Ain fusing several Heavenly Flas into it. Still, fusing is a loose term as Baek Ain used Heavenly Fla to support Gno's growth.
Green Lotus Core Fla.
Fallen Heart Fla.
Sea Heart Fla.
Six Path Reincarnation Fla.
And Golden Crow's Divine Fla.
Baek Ain rubbed its finger against Gno's little head and said, "I should gather more Heavenly Flas to make you stronger, huh?"
"It would be a hassle but worth it."
...
...
As Baek Ain and his lovers created several backups to their plans for a week, Qing Lin and the Nine Serene Deep Ground Python Tribe's convoys returned to the Nine Serene Mountain Range.
Qing Lin's aura changed trendously in less than two weeks, shocking Baek Ain and the four ladies.
"Hubby, I've returned!" Qing Lin announced with a smile. A woman was hovering behind her, smiling bitterly. Yes, this woman is Elder Lu Man from the Sky Serpent Mansion and Qing Lin's teacher.
Baek Ain stared at the sky helplessly. He checked Qing Lin's status page before kicking the ground and reaching her with lightning speed.
"Good job." Baek Ain hugged her tightly.
"I'm happy that you were fine."
"Hehe, I gained so lucky encounters~!" Qing Lin hugged Baek Ain's back, giggling like a maiden in love that she is.
