Paragon Of Sin

Chapter 1255 1249: Strange Power

Assist?

"..." There was a strange, distinctly awkward silence as the drop-dead gorgeous Moonfall Lunar Queen turned to Wu Yu, her hands slightly outstretched and her gaze focused and expecting. 

Wu Yu had been a casual observer since the beginning, watching the clash amusingly from a distance while simultaneously being in sheer awe at the capabilities of Baby Defiant. He knew of a World-Bound Star Domain and its intricate potential, but he never thought that it could unleash sufficient enough solar light that it could envelop and protect the starfield from the disastrous and cataclysmic powers of an Earthly Saint. So when the Moonfall Lunar Queen sent him an open spiritual transmission seeking assistance, he was deeply taken aback and unable to react.

Did this woman not know that he was Wei Wuyin's Alchemic Knight? The Grand Knight of Neo-Dawn? Did she want him to assist her into an early grave? He was genuinely curious! 

Wei Wuyin was initially stunned, too, unable to figure out the connection. Did Wu Yu have a relationship with this woman? But when he thought of Wu Yu's relationships, something he was extremely open about, there was nothing tying them together. Considering Wu Yu's personality, he would disdain to hide it. 

For a second, just the briefest of seconds, Wei Wuyin thought that the Moonfall Lunar Queen was Feng Qingchu's, also known as Lady Clearwind, true form! But that possibility was thrown away instantly! If she was, there was utterly no need to hide and establish formations! She had already submitted to Wei Wuyin, and he had no issues sharing his fortune with those under his charge.

Moreover, she was still in the starfield! 

She was watching! 

While an Incarnation or an Avatar Art was potentially possible, he didn't think his Celestial Eyes and Spiritual Sense wouldn't find any faults with it, especially given the Moonfall Lunar Queen's 6th Runic Ascendant State! 

However, when he looked back at the Moonfall Lunar Queen, her expression was serene and seemingly expectant. She seemed to be waiting for her request to be followed! 

Wei Wuyin thought with the quickness of a lightning bolt; his first instinct was to coordinate with Wu Yu to pretend to be a traitor and ally with the Moonfall Lunar Queen, then use this type of subterfuge to extract from her the purpose and knowledge she was unwilling to share. He could exploit her expectations and gain an understanding by having Wu Yu act in this way, wiggling himself into her trust. 

"Nah." 

Wei Wuyin spat.

Why?

Because it was too troublesome!

He took one step forward as his figure melded with the void, and time seemed to distort around him.

PA!!

Before the Moonfall Lunar Queen could react, her eyes still focused on Wu Yu, a third slap sent her barreling across the Dark Void. Her explosively blown back body avoided every celestial body of the Neo-Dawn Starfield. Her body spun almost eighty times as a gravitational force seemed to impose itself on her body, controlling her trajectory as she was flung around until she returned to her original spot!

The slap was miraculous! Beautiful! And her body being sent across the Dark Void was quite a sight!

Wu Yu had the urge to applaud as he observed it all. Not just for Wei Wuyin's exquisite slap but for the exceptional control over the celestial bodies' gravitational forces, including Baby Defiant's, that allowed him to boomerang her body! 

By the time she returned to her original position, there was a dazed light in her eyes as her face was disgustingly sunken, and her mouth was entirely ruined! She was no longer a beauty! 

"That wasn't the third warning. Just a slight reminder of your circumstances. Don't worry; the offer to talk hasn't left the table just yet." Wei Wuyin smilingly said as he placed his hands behind his back. The more Wei Wuyin exerted the power of his physical body, the greater his control and understanding of his strength!

It was incredible!

At the Realm World Phase of the Astral Core Realm, he had tested his strength against his three subordinates—Highlord Bluecloud, Venerable Kun Yiming, and Venerable Slayingsword—to gauge his limits and abilities in a life-and-death scenario. He fought against a newly Ascended Demi-Mortal Lord skilled in Spiritual Spells, a well-armed Soul of Mysticism cultivator, and a World Heart Intent possessing Soul of Mysticism expert. These three allowed him to realize the gap between Mortal and Ascended beings. 

He had won by relying on his saber's edge. 

When he was at the Temporal Eye Phase, his Draconic Transformation allowed him to fight and dominate an Earthly Saint's raw strength and speed. He Bojing wasn't weak, and an Earthly Saint had a constant Demi-Mystic State, so their bodies were terrifying to the limit! While he was incognito and thus only relied on his Draconic Void Astral Soul's powers, it was enough to give him a range of his potential strength.

Now, he had reached the Star Core Phase, bound a Defiant-sized World-Bound Star Domain, forged his Stellar-Paragon Physique to the initial levels, reached the Mystic-tier of his True Void Dragon Bloodline, and grasped several Minor Laws. He couldn't even begin to fathom his newfound strength, but facing the Moonfall Lunar Queen, he finally knew that he had deeply subverted the invincibility of the Mystic Dao!

As a mortal, he had grasped sufficient strength to contend with them! Moreover, Baby Defiant's abilities thus far weren't even the limits of its capabilities!

The itch to fight with the intent to kill swelled within his heart, but he suppressed it for now. 

"You have three seconds until the offer is off the table," Wei Wuyin might be able to suppress it, but it wasn't for long! His patience for the stubborn woman was at its limits! This woman had invaded his starfield, unleashed power that could threaten his people, and seemed to be trying to cause a subordinate of his to defect. If it wasn't for his curiosity, she would've already been publicly executed!

Just like Jiang Jingshi!

Wei Wuyin wasn't a saint, nor was he someone who would throw away his self-respect and the safety of those who decided to willingly exist under his protection for a beautiful woman! He had lost everything once before, and anyone who threatened that deserved only the most gruesome of deaths!!

"..." The Moonfall Lunar Queen held her crushed cheeks, her eyes watery, and her gaze a little absentminded. Suddenly, she exhausted another few hundred years of her life to regain her gorgeous looks and exquisite charm once again, yet her eyes this time no longer exuded a distinct calm but a type of bubbling anger that was deeply violent and manic!

Her expression twisted! 

She then looked at Wu Yu, her eyes solidifying with rage, and the irises of her eyes became violet in color. A demonic aura flared within them with the radiant intensity of a thousand stars! 

"KILL HIM!" She explosively ordered Wu Yu, and her glabella formed a strange violet-colored image. It was hard to decipher, seemingly distorted to the senses, yet it was clearly a beast with either multiple tails or multiple heads, either of which was slender and long like a serpent with a large mass that could be its head or body. It was genuinely difficult to tell! 

Then, seemingly thinking that this was enough, she formed three hand seals, and her body began to exude a spatial light that flickered intensely. She was trying to unleash a type of advanced Spatial Shift! Her skills in Spatial Arts were why she could invade the various starfields without being noticed alongside her exquisite Concealment Spells! She was going to take her leave!

Flee!

Wu Yu glanced at the mark curiously. For some reason, he felt that this stupid woman was trying to use something to control him! Before he could react, his entire body was enveloped by a violet glow! His heart shook violently as he used his Imperial Heaven Power in an attempt to expel it, but its energy was impossible to interact with! Why? It was corroding his Imperial Heaven Power!

IT WAS CORRODING HIS IMPERIAL HEAVEN POWER! 

His heart and mind went into a state of panic, a rarity for a Monarch, but he didn't simply resign himself to some type of mind-controlling spell! He didn't hesitate to initiate the Third Grand Transformation, his eyes transformed to encompass the cosmic grandeur of stars and the endless void, and his hair grew extremely long and sharp to reflect the vast, inscrutable Dark Void! He resembled a ruler of the cosmos, of heaven and earth, and of the Void and all its stars.

His Imperial Heaven Aura intensified as his Imperial Heaven Power reached a pinnacle! His cultivation base roared, and he unleashed all NINE Mystic Runes within his Mystic Soul! They orbited the sanguine-colored bloody World Rune, further increasing his power as faint blood-red runes formed on his face. 

"ROAR!" He bellowed a thunderously as he resisted the violet glow, but despite his 9th Runic Ascendant strength, it was to no avail! The energy was far, far beyond his cultivation base and understanding! 

"Calm down." A serene voice emerged beside him, and his heart became clear as the panic subsided almost instantly. When Wei Wuyin arrived, Wu Yu's state of mind became extremely clear. This was the kind of unrivaled confidence an Alchemic Knight had in their Alchemist! This was the kind of unshakeable belief a subordinate had in their King! When he arrived, there was no need to panic!

Wei Wuyin lightly touched Wu Yu's shoulder, his Celestial Eyes inspecting the violet glow. For some reason, this glow felt familiar. But he couldn't recall from where! This was very strange given his mental strength, but he didn't delve into the obscure connection that his instincts and memories were trying to piece together and focused on Wu Yu.

After two seconds, Wei Wuyin frowned. "Don't resist the energy," he softly said.

Then, he looked at the Moonfall Lunar Queen, who was unleashing a greater Spatial Shifting Art! 

"Snap!"

Wei Wuyin snapped his fingers toward her, and Baby Defiant's radiance intensified by another level. An uproar of excitement flared amongst the civilizations, but while they cheered, the Minor Law of Space was channeled through Baby Defiant's solar light and distorted all three dimensions of space! 

It sealed the entire Neo-Dawn Starfield! 

The powers of a World-Bound Star Domain!

Her spatial light fizzled depressingly as her beautiful figure was revealed once again to the world. Her expression this time was extremely ugly despite her exceptionally blessed looks and charm. She wanted to sow discord and confusion by using Wu Yu as a sacrificial puppet to ensure her escape! If before she had been asking politely, now she took a forceful stance to seize Wu Yu's assistance! But none of that mattered if she couldn't leave!

For the first time, panic began to set in her heart. 

"..." Wu Yu looked to Wei Wuyin, the violet glow still encompassing his body. But there was not the slightest trace of fear in his heart, eyes, or soul. The power might exceed his comprehension, but he had the belief that Wei Wuyin could handle it!

"The aura seemed to be trying to find something in your essence blood; it's adhering to your Imperial Heaven Ignition Essence and the quintessence of your Imperial Heaven Aura," Wei Wuyin explained before his eyes gradually grew sharp and cold while his curiosity increased! 

"The Imperial Heaven Ignition Essence?" Wu Yu's expression slightly changed. This was the fundamental quality that allowed those of his lineage to cultivate the Imperial Heaven Qi Method!

"It's not harming your foundation, only homing into it like it's receiving a signal. There's no need to worry; the energy has no conscious will behind it and is a result of an external power with severe limitations." As Wei Wuyin delved into it to alleviate Wu Yu's concerns, three seconds finally passed!

"What's the purpose? To control my mind?" Wu Yu asked as his eyes flashed with soul-shaking killing intent. As a cultivator of an Imperial Mystic Soul and the Imperial Heaven Qi Method, he was fiercely against enslavement, and his entire soul might suffer a backlash if it happened! 

"I can't be certain, but it seems so. But its trigger, the will that should control that power, isn't present." Wei Wuyin discovered a little more, and then he tapped Wu Yu's shoulder. The Grand Knight felt his flowing blood tremble.

"Trigger? In my blood?" Wu Yu was stunned.

"Hold on," Wei Wuyin said as his glacial gaze fixated on the Moonfall Lunar Queen. He took a step toward the Moonfall Lunar Queen! It was time to bring this to an end!
