Chapter 1268 - The Harem
Xiang Ling was an extremely beautiful woman. She had a head of luscious, golden hair, which was gone after she received a free trim from Xu Xiaolan.
Even so, her beauty was not diminished. On the contrary, she seemed to be even more alluring in another way.
She made her way forward with a pair of eyes that were rippling with water, and a faint smile appeared on her face as she encircled her arm around An Lin’s in an extremely natural motion. “I can take you on a tour around our sect, great Sect Leader.”
Xu Xiaolan glowered coldly at her. She felt like she had taken it a little too easy on her earlier.
An Lin struggled free from Xiang Ling’s arm in a very natural motion as a warm smile appeared on his face. “Then I’ll have to trouble you, Elder Xiang Ling.”
He then turned to Xu Xiaolan and her group. “Come with me. Let’s go on a tour of our second sect.”
A vibrant smile appeared on Xu Xiaolan’s face, and she nodded before making her way toward him.
Tina and Da Bai also followed along.
A purple-robed woman with a delectable, voluptuous figure and exquisitely beautiful features was left in a corner, ignored by everyone. Not even the people from the Divine Dark Dao Sect took any notice of her.
They had all of their attention focused on their new sect leader, so no one cared about this princess.
Xiang Qingya hesitated momentarily before gritting her teeth and running after An Lin.
Even though she was following him, she didn’t dare to say anything. She had thought that An Lin was a hero who had come to save her, but it was quite clear that she was mistaken.
An Lin was only here to inherit this sect and just so happened to save her during the process.
An Lin was now the new sect leader of the Divine Dark Dao Sect! If he lusted for her as well, how would her situation be any different from what it once was?
With this in mind, Xiang Qingya began to panic again.
She had finally escaped from the Dark Depravity Monarch, was she going to fall victim to An Lin now?
Xiang Ling led An Lin through the sect, and news of his spontaneous inauguration traveled even faster than they could walk as all of the sect disciples they encountered along the way bowed respectfully to An Lin.
After a short while, they arrived at a luxurious palace.
This was a massive palace with a white ball of light hovering over it, which lit up the entire space.
“This is the place that is most important to the Dark Depravity Monarch,” Xiang Ling spoke with a dainty smile.
An Lin’s heart stirred with excitement. Treasures, inheritance, they were all going to be his!
The gate slowly opened.
A huge group of beauties in palatial dresses of different colors and styles bowed at the same time, revealing patches of snowy-white skin through their collars. “We welcome Sect Leader An Lin to the Spring Sun Palace!”
All of them were extremely beautiful, and they looked at An Lin with seductive expressions.
An Lin was dumbstruck, Xu Xiaolan and Tina were astonished, and Da Bai was green with envy.
“Xiang Ling… This…” An Lin took a deep breath to slow his accelerating heart rate.
“Sect Leader, this is the place most important to the Dark Depravity Monarch, the Spring Sun Palace. Here are the nine hundred and ninety-seven beautiful concubines that he has gathered from all over the world. They are all yours now. You can establish slave contracts with all of them…” Xiang Ling spoke with a dainty smile.
Behind her, Xiang Qingya shuddered upon hearing this. She was supposed to be the newest addition to this massive harem?
Was she destined to become a sex toy after all?
An Lin’s mouth gaped open as he stared at the vast smorgasbord of beauties before him. He could sleep with a different one every night for close to three years without repetition!
Wait, he could actually sleep with a few per night…
His modesty had limited his imagination.
An Lin was astonished by Dark Depravity Monarch’s massive harem. This was an inheritance that he was not expecting…
“Xiang Ling, all of these women were forced here, right?” An Lin asked.
“Huh? How did you know that?” Xiang Ling was a little surprised.
“The Dark Depravity Monarch was an ugly pig! He’s not a handsome and powerful sword immortal like me, so why would there be so many beauties that love him? There’s no lack of female cultivators with high cultivation bases either.” An Lin harrumphed coldly.
Xiang Ling: “…”
Xu Xiaolan: “…”
“Let all of them go!” An Lin commanded.
“This…” Xiang Ling’s eyes widened as she stared at An Lin with befuddlement.
Any man’s heart would waver with this many beauties laid out before them. How could An Lin resist this temptation?
“Hurry up! I don’t like to force people into doing things that they don’t like!
“Besides, what kind of person do I look like to you? I don’t like them, so how can I take them for my harem? My heart has no place for anyone except Xiaolan!” An Lin spoke with an extremely firm expression.
A sweet smile appeared on Xu Xiaolan’s face as she sheathed her Dragon Sparrow Sword.
An Lin turned to the nine hundred and ninety-seven gorgeous female cultivators before him. “Go back to where you came from. You’re all free now!”
All of the female cultivators were dumbstruck upon hearing this.
After a long while, one of them broke down in tears. Her tears seemed to be contagious, and a domino effect ensued. Before long, all of them were howling tearfully.
They had been forced to become slaves and imprisoned here to be used as the Dark Depravity Monarch’s toys. Not only that, but they had to live in constant fear in case they did something wrong and were slain by the Dark Depravity Monarch.
They thought that An Lin would be exactly the same and that their dark days would continue under a different master this time.
However, what they didn’t expect was that An Lin was willing to give them freedom.
An Lin had given them a second chance at life.
Countless female cultivators extended grateful curtsies to An Lin with tears flowing down their faces.
“You were captured here as well, right? You can go with them as well.” An Lin turned to Xiang Qingya.
Only then did Xiang Qingya recover from her shock.
She looked up at the gentle expression on An Lin’s face and her cherry lips parted, but she didn’t know what to say.
What an emotional rollercoaster.
Her image of An Lin had been flipped on its head over and over again in a short span of time.
“What are you still doing here? Do you need anything else?” An Lin asked with a curious expression.
“I… I am the sixth princess of the Dark Wind Imperial Family, Xiang Qingya. I’ll definitely repay you for saving me,” Xiang Qingya spoke with an extremely earnest expression.
“Alright, I appreciate the thought. You can go now.” An Lin nodded with a smile.
He wasn’t really looking forward to her repayment, even if she was to actually deliver on her promise. The Four Nine Immortal Sect was comparable to any of the Nine Imperials anyway, so there wasn’t really anything that this princess could give him.
The princess looked deep into An Lin’s eyes before nodding and turning around to leave.
She felt like An Lin was not a bad person. Perhaps under his rule, the Divine Dark Dao Sect would become a force for good.
No one could go against An Lin’s wishes.
Almost a thousand female cultivators were freed, and they left the Divine Dark Dao Sect without a hitch.
“Let’s keep going,” An Lin instructed.
“Alright, Sect Leader.” Xiang Ling recovered her composure before nodding.
Next, they visited some cultivation rooms and things of that nature, which weren’t really all that noteworthy.
Finally, An Lin arrived at the real treasure vault.
