--- Chapter 139 ---
Baek Ain walked out of Qing Lin's room, sighing in relief.
He was happy Qing Lin fell deeply in love with him but smiled helplessly because his responsibility increased again. The bigger his harem was, the higher Baek Ain must achieve to protect them.
Not saying his harem is powerless. They are powerful and skillful women, maybe second only to his mastery, but what kind of man doesn't protect his women and family?
"See, Ain accepted Qing Lin without a problem. We don't have to do anything." A voice suddenly appeared from the hallway.
And It was Yi Xian.
Baek Ain frowned and glanced there, finding his four lovers.
Yi Xian has a cheeky smile on her beautiful face, laughing at Baek Ain as if she had expected him to come out of Qing Lin's bedroom.
Meanwhile, Yafei tried to maintain her calm noble look, but the smirk gave it away.
As for Lan Rou, she casually shrugged and said, "I know this is going to happen sooner or later."
"Qing Lin is mature enough. I don't see any problem here."
Cai Lin snorted, "Yeah, Ain has swallowed eight innocent ladies. As expected of the perverted scrounger."
The corner of Baek Ain's mouth twitched as he countered, "What innocent. I was not even conscious when I took your first time."
"It still counts!" Cai Lin crossed her arm, leaving Baek Ain speechless.
Baek Ain sighed, "Whatever."
"Can I have breakfast first? We'll discuss the matter of the Mellowing Serpent Dragon Secret Realm while at it."
"Sure." Lan Rou pulled Baek Ain into the dining room.
Yafei followed with a giggle.
And Yi Xian casually commented, "Just be honest with yourself, Sister Cai Lin."
"You're jealous because last night was supposed to be your turn, no?"
"You can take my turn tonight. I'm trying to develop my Heavenly Poison Body even further anyway." She added with a grin.
Cai Lin flushed and returned, "I don't know what you are talking about, hmph!"
"How cute of you, hehe~!" Yi Xian laughed, chasing after Baek Ain.
Cai Lin stared at Yi Xian's back and mumbled, "Thank you."
"I don't know how long it would take to reach a Half-Saint Realm..."
"The time I spend with Ain will become shorter soon." Cai Lin glanced at Qing Lin's bedroom. "What a lucky girl."
It would be a lie if Cai Lin didn't feel guilty about Qing Lin's past. After all, she was the ruler of the Snake People, yet she couldn't completely control her subordinates.
Ultimately, the best way to develop their sister-like relationship is to know each other better.
"Maybe I should be a better queen in the past..." Cai Lin sighed with a weak smile. "Well, there is no use crying over spilled milk."
"Even though the girl said she doesn't hate me, deep down, she still despises me."
"Oh well... What a shame." Cai Lin walked away. Of course, her words pointed toward herself as self-depreciation.
...
When Cai Lin reached the dining room, she could see the chief and familiar elder of the Nine Serene Deep Ground Python Tribe. They are sitting and chatting with Baek Ain.
Cai Lin sat down and asked, "What are you guys discussing?"
"Ah, Saintess. You finally arrived." Yao Ming laughed merrily. "We were discussing the support of the tribe to take over the Mellowing Serpent Dragon Secret Realm."
"It's embarrassing, but we barely recovered from my traitorous brother's scheme. Not to mention Yao Xiaotian was involved with the Hall of Souls, meaning they should have noticed his death sooner or later."
"Considering the investment they put into him, they should have an ulterior motive." A wry expression formed on Yao Ming's face.
Cai Lin frowned and responded, "Can we just kill them?"
"..." Yao Ling choked on her braised pork, staring at Cai Lin with a stunned expression.
Yao Ling glanced at Baek and commented, "Tsk, tsk. Husband and Wife think alike."
"You two are truly a match made in heaven."
"Hahaha~!" Yao Ming laughed once again. "Saint Ain told us he'd deploy several Killing Array Formation to catch Hall of Souls off guard."
"He was confident that the Killing Array Formation could kill any Half-Saint Experts that come to the Nine Serene Deep Ground Python Tribe's front door."
"Of course, the Dou Saint Experts will also be weakened."
"With you confirming his thoughts, I have no words to refuse such a beneficial cooperation."
Cai Lin felt awkward when sensing Baek Ain's gaze as she argued with him out of jealousy a while ago.
"That's good enough, I suppose." Cai Lin replied calmly, feeling somewhat nervous.
Baek Ain casually ate a roasted lamb and said, "It will take a few days to set."
"Not to mention the amount of resources I must use."
"I have 90% of them, but I hope the tribe will collect the rest."
"Don't worry... The resources weren't rare, but the problem is that we are on tight time."
Yao Ming raised his brows and asked, "What do you need, Saint Ain?"
"10.000 Rank 5 Magical Beast's Remains, 1.000 Rank 6 Magical Beasts' Remains, 100 Rank 7 Magical Beasts' Remains, and 10 Rank 8 Magical Beasts' Remains." Baek Ain answered immediately.
Lan Rou put down her chopsticks and questioned him, "Just what kind of arrays do you want to build?"
Baek Ain smirked, "It's my original array inspired by someone."
"If it worked perfectly, the killing arrays should be able to summon countless Magical Beasts' Imaginary Souls and slaughter the enemy."
"I name this array..."
"Hell's Guidance Array."
...
...
A few days later, the Nine Serene Deep Ground Python Tribe's territory was "literally." surrounded by tall stone pillars. Each released a faint brown-black light and illuminated the area.
These pillars were the foundation of Baek Ain's Arrays and connected through the sensory array, which could detect any enemy within one hundred miles. Of course, that one hundred miles is just one's tower range and not counting the rest.
Baek Ain stood above a tree and mumbled, "This should be enough."
[Name: Hell's Guidance Array]
[Type: Array]
[Grade: SS+]
[Description: An array inspired by "Ten Thousand Demonic Beast Array." and used the backbone of the Nine Serene Defying Serpent's Backbone as the foundation, containing Defying Serpent's Spirit. The spirit of the early-type Divine Beast will nourish the Imaginary Souls of 11.110 Magical Beast and strengthen them up to Rank 9 Magical Beasts]
[Array Modes: Hell's Eve, Hell's Festive, Hell's Paradise]
[Since the Hell's Guidance Arrays used many key materials that could harm souls, Soul-Related Enemy will receive 50% more damage]
"I hope the Hall of Souls sends so many people here." Baek Ain chuckled wickedly. "So, my objective will get fulfilled quickly."
He looked at the sky and added, "But they also make me curious."
"What's in the Nine Serene Deep Ground Python Tribe that pique their interest so much? Unless it's related to Tou She Ancient God and something that benefits them, they'd only bully others."
"What do you think, Alicia?"
[You're right, Host]
[Their movement is quite shady]
[But haven't you received any news from Gus?]
"I did, but they are unreliable." Baek Ain has sowed his parasites on the Gu Clan, controlling several elders and key figures. But they barely know anything about the Hall of Souls.
Even though Baek Ain knows about the Hun Clan being the true controller of the Hall of Souls, he can't reach them. Hun Clan have Nihility Devouring Flame as one of their foundations, and they keep it hidden with the Chief Hun Tiandi.
Baek Ain knew this because he devoured one elder from the Hall of Souls, but still, it barely suffices for his plan.
"I have set everything." Baek Ain closed his eyes.
"The only thing left is to do our best."
