A Demon's Journey

Chapter 623 William\'s Secret Mistresses

After indulging in the early morning pleasures with Ren Yue\'s voluptuous form, William finally left the hotel room, leaving Ren Yue with a few more instructions.

His time with Ren Yue had been marked by unrestrained passion and intensity. There was no trace of gentleness in his actions; instead, he thoroughly enjoyed every inch of her body, from the tender curves to the passionate kisses.

Ren Yue, far from resisting, embraced the roughness with equal fervor, relishing in the primal connection they shared.

As William departed the inn room, Ren Yue lay on the bed, her naked form a testament to the passionate encounter. Her chest rose and fell in rhythmic breaths, and a satisfied smile played on her lips. The room still lingered with the lingering scent of their escapade.

Gathering herself, Ren Yue rose from the bed and noticed a selection of dresses neatly placed in the closet by William.

The fabrics were luxurious, a stark contrast to the passion that had unfolded moments ago.

Choosing one of the dresses, Ren Yue adorned herself, the fabric cascading over her curves.

As she looked in the mirror, a mix of emotions played on her face — satisfaction, desire, and a hint of uncertainty.

Deciding to explore the market further, Ren Yue left the inn room. She meandered through the lively streets, her mind still tingling with the memory of William\'s touch.

Entering various shops, Ren Yue indulged in purchasing more dresses, each one carefully chosen to enhance her allure.

The vibrant colors and luxurious fabrics complemented her radiant beauty, reflecting a mix of elegance and sensuality.

With a collection of new attire in hand, Ren Yue made her way back to her house.

The anticipation of the upcoming ceremony and her newfound position as the ruler of the region added a spring to her step.

Little did she know that the actions in the early morning hours would set the course for more significant transformations in her life, intertwining her fate with William.

Back in the hotel room, William rejoined his trio of wives—Regina, Anna, and Vivi—whose affectionate greetings filled the air.

"Husband, you\'re back. How did everything go?" Regina inquired with genuine concern, her eyes reflecting affection.

William took a seat, sharing a casual smile with his wives. "Everything went smoothly. Long Chen is now under some discreet surveillance measures I\'ve put in place. We\'ll know if he tries anything fishy."

Anna expressed her relief, "That\'s a relief to hear, dear. We don\'t want any surprises."

Vivi nodded in agreement, "Indeed. It\'s crucial to ensure our plans move forward seamlessly."

Naturally, William omitted any mention of Ren Yue and his escapades from the conversation. She was just one of many secret mistresses scattered across the continent, each linked to warriors with Great Providence.

There were multiple reasons for William\'s involvement with these women.

Firstly, by engaging in illicit affairs, he could siphon a portion of the Great Providence possessed by the warriors. It was a subtle, yet effective, way of strengthening his own providence.

Secondly, the bonds formed through these encounters solidified the loyalty of these women, regardless of how William treated them—whether with cruelty or kindness.

The third and perhaps most strategic reason was that these women, once intertwined with William, acted as effective pawns.

They maintained contact with the warriors who considered them love interests but refrained from any inappropriate engagement, physical or emotional.

Even if those warriors were deeply in love, these women would exploit their influence for William\'s benefit.

With their conversation concluded, the group prepared to leave the hotel room. Bags were packed, and the trio of wives stood by William\'s side, ready for the journey ahead.

Their destination: the Celician Theocracy, situated at a considerable distance from their current location.

The journey toward the Celician Theocracy unfolded with a vibrant mix of adventure and camaraderie. William, along with his wives Regina, Anna, and Vivi, traversed diverse landscapes, passing through the Sinyalian Kingdom, the Principality of Ascea, and finally arriving at the shores of the Celician Theocracy.

The Sinyalian Kingdom held a special place in William\'s heart, a land that evoked nostalgia and memories of his final meeting with his master, Azaroth. As they journeyed through, William couldn\'t help but reflect on the pivotal moments that transpired in this realm.

Navigating through the Principality of Ascea, the group encountered various landscapes, from lush forests to sprawling plains. The journey became a tapestry of sights and experiences, each contributing to the vivid mosaic of their travels.

Finally, as they approached the Celician Theocracy, the southern side revealed a connection to the vast sea. The distant waves whispered tales of unexplored possibilities, adding an air of anticipation to their arrival.

The Celician Theocracy welcomed them with its unique charm, a blend of coastal beauty and spiritual resonance. The sea breeze carried the promise of new beginnings, as the group ventured into the heart of this enigmatic land.

Throughout the journey, the interactions among William and his wives were filled with light-hearted banter and shared laughter.

As they set foot in the Celician Theocracy, William wasted no time in initiating preparations for the impending confrontation with the Bewitching Droplet Divine Goddess. The air crackled with anticipation as his comrades readied themselves, the collective energy of the group focused on this celestial challenge.

Now, the Bewitching Droplet Divine Goddess is a Celestial Goddess whose beauty and abilities mesmerized those who followed her religion. Her celestial aura radiated a captivating charm, drawing devotees into her enchanting embrace.

As a Celestial God, she dwelled in a realm one step beyond the Emperor Realm, wielding powers that transcended mortal comprehension.

The Bewitching Droplet Divine Goddess possessed a unique ability – the creation of life forms within her minor world.

Among these ethereal beings were the Seraphic Sirens, celestial maidens with voices that could soothe even the most restless souls. Their harmonious melodies echoed through the celestial realm, a testament to their divine origin.

The Seraphic Sirens\' abilities extended beyond mere music. Their celestial voices possessed the power to influence emotions, calming turbulent spirits or instigating passionate fervor. In the celestial hierarchy, these angelic maidens were revered as the embodiment of beauty and grace.

In addition to the Seraphic Sirens, the Bewitching Droplet Divine Goddess had crafted Celestial Nymphs, beings of pure essence with the ability to manipulate water. These ethereal creatures danced upon the celestial waters, weaving intricate patterns that mirrored the Goddess\'s control over the liquid element.

As formidable as these celestial entities were, the Bewitching Droplet Divine Goddess herself focused on a more subtle yet potent approach.

Unlike other Celestial Gods relying on sheer force, her strength lay in the art of charming and manipulating spirits along with the control of water element. She could weave illusions that ensnared the minds of her adversaries, leading them into a captivating dance of enchantment.

This unique skill set made her a formidable opponent, especially against those unprepared for the subtleties of spiritual warfare.

However, it also rendered her vulnerable to a group of experts like William and his comrades, who specialized in countering such mystical arts.

This made her one of the few Celestial Gods within their reach, despite their cultivation being at the peak of the Emperor Realm.

The strategic decision to target the Bewitching Droplet Divine Goddess was further motivated by her close ties with the Great Qin Empire. Her minor world, nestled on one of the islands of the Celician Theocracy, had remained untouched by human Saint Realm experts due to the diplomatic relations she maintained.

This presented a unique opportunity for William and his comrades to strike a blow against a Celestial God.

As William and his wives immersed themselves in the preparation for the imminent clash with the Bewitching Droplet Divine Goddess, their approach was a strategic blend of intellect and logic. They initiated a comprehensive information-gathering process about the deity and her religious following.

The religion devoted to the Bewitching Droplet Divine Goddess was known as the Enchanting Aquilo Religion, a faith that thrived on the divine allure and beguiling charm she wielded along with her divine control of water element.

William\'s group probed into the intricacies of this religious sect, delving into their scriptures to unveil critical details.

They sought information on the location of the Bewitching Droplet Divine Goddess\'s minor world, the specific island it resided on, the security measures in place, the goddess\'s weaknesses, her strengths, and any notable miracles or actions associated with her.

The gathered intel became the cornerstone of their strategy, providing invaluable insights into the nuances of their celestial adversary.

Armed with this knowledge, William set out to gather array formations and alchemic pellets specifically tailored for the impending confrontation.

It didn\'t take long before William had gathered five good array formations that he felt would be useful against the Bewitching Droplet Divine Goddess.

Celestial Veil Barrier Array: This formation created an invisible barrier that disrupted the celestial energy manipulated by the goddess, making her charm-based attacks less effective.

Serpentine Illusion Matrix: An array that generated illusions resembling serpentine creatures, distracting the goddess and creating openings for strategic strikes.

Ephemeral Harmony Net: This formation wove a net of harmonized energy, disrupting the celestial connection of the goddess and limiting her ability to summon celestial beings.

Abyssal Mirage Shroud: A shrouding array that enveloped the battlefield in an abyssal mirage, confusing the goddess and distorting her perception of reality.

Divine Seclusion Ward: This defensive formation created a secluded space within which the goddess\'s divine influence was weakened, giving the users a temporary sanctuary.

Other than these five array formations, he gathered many pellets that would be useful against the Bewitching Droplet Divine Goddess. Some of them were as given below:

Aetherbane Elixir: An elixir infused with Aetherbane essence, disrupting the celestial energy flow in the vicinity and weakening the goddess\'s ability to manipulate charm.

Serenity Quencher: A pellet that emitted calming vapors, countering the emotional manipulation caused by the goddess\'s celestial melodies.

Eclipsing Veil Powder: A powder that, when dispersed, created a temporary veil against celestial sight, shielding the users from the goddess\'s probing gaze.

In addition to their array formations and alchemic pellets, William summoned the support of the Heavenless Fiery Monkey, a formidable ally committed to assisting in the battle against the Bewitching Droplet Divine Goddess.
