Chapter 946: Abyssal Plan

In the Sighing Wilderness, Lei En had already planned to elevate Ailuotixiya to a Holy Blood Angel, deliberately filling the capacity of the Holy Blood Amber with a full ten thousand units of Holy Light Power.

Granting her the blessing "Dawn's Holy Favor" consumed three thousand three hundred units.

Lei En carefully controlled the remaining Holy Light Power, gradually infusing it into Ailuotixiya's body, where it merged with her Blood Crystal Power, rapidly growing and stimulating her soul transformation, breaking through the Saint Rank bottleneck.

This step he was very familiar with.

While infusing Holy Blood Power, he also granted the succubus the "Dawn Light Will" and used a Soul Protection Scroll taken from the Nebula Ring.

Even so, Ailuotixiya still let out a painful cry.

Her will was strong, but this soul-rending agony could not be ignored by anyone; she could only grit her teeth and endure desperately.

The succubus's skin split open, blood staining her entire body red.

Lei En did not stop there, merely slowing the infusion speed of Holy Light Power, his Soul Eye watching Ailuotixiya's condition; the Angel Soul deep within her soul was awakening, frantically devouring Holy Light Power, growing stronger every second.

Soon, Ailuotixiya had absorbed over one thousand units of Holy Light Power.

Her soul had already far surpassed other Legendary Peaks; when elevating Livlin before, absorbing this much Holy Light Power had already begun soul transformation, but she had not.

"No wonder she is the fusion of demon and angel."

"Ailuotixiya's talent and potential surpass Livlin's by a notch."

Lei En thought, made a quick judgment, and increased the infusion of Holy Light Power. Sacred light burst forth suddenly, the cracks on Ailuotixiya's body spewing blood, each drop mixed with gold, that being pure Holy Light Power.

"Ah..."

Ailuotixiya cried out in pain, nearly unable to bear it.

If not for Lei En's hand firmly pressing her down, and his mental force field like a mountain holding her immobile on the ground, she might have already broken free.

"Lei En..."

Livlin beside her could not help but speak, Ailuotixiya unlike herself, having endured a century of headaches forged a tenacious will, able to withstand any terrible pain; such a massive infusion of Holy Light Power, if something went wrong, would result in bodily explosion and death.

"Rest assured, she can." Lei En said calmly.

Blazing Heaven Divine Envoy corresponds to a transcendent being above Thirty-level; although Ailuotixiya has lost most of her memories and her soul has been tortured into regression, her upper limit remains, far exceeding ordinary Saint Rank powerhouses, and this Holy Light Power will certainly not take her life.

Indeed, Ailuotixiya ceased struggling, obviously having adapted.

Lei En continued to infuse Holy Light Power.

The succubus's skin kept cracking and healing, the blood that flowed out evaporated, the high temperature generated by the Holy Light Power burning her leather coat to ash, her fiery figure fully exposed.

Lei En's eyes flickered for a moment.

If only he and Ailuotixiya were present, he could freely admire, but Livlin is beside him, making it somewhat inconvenient.

Livlin gave Lei En a sideways glance and snorted.

When she herself was promoted, it was the same, being seen completely by Lei En; back then their relationship was still pure, they had not gotten together.

Lei En could only pretend not to have seen.

A few minutes later, when Ailuotixiya had absorbed over two thousand units of Holy Light Power, her delicate body trembled, suddenly fell silent for an instant, and emitted an aura of Saint Rank.

Her soul began to transform!

Livlin's face showed joy; reaching this stage meant the promotion was mostly successful.

However Lei En did not immediately stop, but continued to infuse Holy Light Power, maintaining the state and accelerating Ailuotixiya's soul transformation.

Until she had absorbed three thousand units of Holy Light Power, Ailuotixiya suddenly broke free from Lei En's grasp, golden light flashed, her whole body rose into the church's midair, limbs spread out, with a boom, her naked body erupted in a solar-like halo of light.

Lei En and Livlin both retreated a little.

"Success!"

Livlin said with great delight.

【38> Lei En nodded, his face very calm. Ailuotixiya was once a Blazing Heaven Divine Envoy, originally mastering Holy Light Power; advancing to Saint Rank was merely a matter of course, the chance of failure very low. She had absorbed three thousand units of Holy Light Power, twice Livlin's amount; failure would be unthinkable.

Lei En nodded, his face very calm. Ailuotixiya once was a Blazing Heaven Divine Envoy, originally mastering the power of holy light; advancing to Saint Rank was as easy as water flowing into a channel, the possibility of failure very low. She absorbed three thousand portions of holy light power, twice that of Lifulin; not succeeding would be strange.

Quantitative change brought about qualitative change; Ailuotixiya's soul gradually transformed, reaching Saint Rank.

An aura belonging to Saint Rank powerhouses emanated from her, growing ever stronger; the demon bat wings on her back fully unfolded, the red wing membranes becoming transparent, fine bones and blood vessels revealed, the bones crystalline and translucent, inside flowing scarlet blood.

That was Holy Blood Power!

After Ailuotixiya advanced to Saint Rank, she clearly differed from Livlin.

She is a succubus, originally possessing a pair of wings; Holy Blood Power remodeled the bat wings, quickly shifting from red to a gold-red interlace, the wings gradually growing, widening, altogether doubling in size, Holy Light Power flowing on the surface, golden light shimmering.

Simultaneously, a phantom of a Blazing Heaven Divine Envoy with three pairs of pure white wings appeared, condensing above her head into a halo of light.

Ailuotixiya's appearance remained that of a succubus.

Angel among demons!

A creation where sacred and evil unite, both strange and harmonious, perfectly unified, causing Lei En and Livlin to stare somewhat dazed.

"Angel!"

At this moment Livlin reacted, shocked: "Ailuoya is an angel?"

"Once was." Lei En replied.

However, whether angel or demon, Ailuotixiya's essence is actually human, so there is no need to say it out loud.

"No wonder..."

Livlin suddenly realized, that angelic phantom was very unique, possessing three pairs of wings, symbolizing the most powerful Blazing Heaven Divine Envoy in the heavenly realm; no wonder Ailuotixiya could become a Holy Sword Warrior, no wonder she could endure such a massive infusion of Holy Light Power.

She felt a tinge of envy in her heart, for that is a Blazing Heaven Divine Envoy!

The mightiest envoy beneath the heavenly gods' thrones.

Immediately she realized again, now Ailuotixiya is a follower of Saint Gilles; the stronger she becomes, the more beneficial to the Radiant Church.

Although from the church's overall perspective, Ailuotixiya's joining is only beneficial, but from a personal standpoint, she felt an immense threat.

Ailuotixiya's potential is higher; Lei En still plans to help her become Abyssal Lord, in the future her strength will surely surpass his. Her appearance and figure are rare in the world, even he finds it hard to resist temptation, this lecher Lei En will eventually devour her.

By then, when Ailuotixiya blows pillow wind, everything will lean toward her……

Livlin could not help but say: "Lei En, you must not show favoritism."

How could it be!

Lei En hurriedly comforted the blood elf, "You will always be the first Holy Blood Angel under the Radiant Lord, and no one can shake your position."

"That's what you said, I remember it." Li Feilin smiled with satisfaction.

"Of course." Lei En nodded repeatedly.

Gradually, the light around Ai Luotixiya contracted, revealing a body without a single thread of clothing. She opened her eyes, her golden pupils emitting a holy radiance that flashed and vanished; feeling her current state, her exquisite face brimmed with joy.

She saw the two on the ground, Lei En.

A thought flickered, and the Holy Blood bat wings folded behind her, the angelic halo above her head vanished, returning her to human form, descending like a feather.

She landed barefoot and walked toward Lei En.

The succubus didn't mind at all that Lei En saw her naked; she even intended to display herself, each step as if treading on a heartstring, her posture elegant yet seductive, exuding a transcendent allure that could drive every man in the world, women included, mad with desire.

Li Feilin stared straight ahead, and as a fellow woman and Holy Blood Angel, she actually felt an impulse to prostrate herself at the succubus's feet.

On the contrary, Lei En remained very calm.

He watched the succubus walk up to him, his eyes filled only with admiration.

Ai Luotixiya clearly awakened something in this promotion, not only angelic abilities but also succubus ones. Her gaze met Lei En's, showing no trace of fear, her eyes full of admiration, reverence, and a hint of awe.

The succubus knelt again before Lei En, both knees on the ground, upper body bowed, hands clasped, forehead pressed against the back of her hands.

From Lei En's perspective, he saw a breathtakingly soul‑stirring curve.

"I, Ai Luotixiya, in the name of Saint Giles, willingly offer my loyalty, my life, my chastity, my honor, my soul, all that I am to Ryan Augustus. No regret, never betray, until the end of the world!"

Lei En couldn't help but be moved.

Li Feilin was also stunned by such a solemn oath.

She had seen many oaths of allegiance; she herself had sworn to Lei En, and others had pledged to her, but they were limited to loyalty, life, and honor, whereas Ai Luotixiya's oath also included the soul!

This meant that Ai Luotixiya would forever be Lei En's follower, or rather, forever Lei En's slave.

Even if she dies in battle, her soul will belong to Lei En.

The oath was like a shackle binding Ai Luotixiya until the moment her soul dissipates.

If she were an ordinary person or a typical transcendent, that would be understandable, but Ai Luotixiya's status is special: she is now a Saint Rank powerhouse, was once a Blazing Heaven Divine Envoy, and may yet become an Abyssal Lord, yet she is willing to make such a heavy oath.

To be honest, Lei En was also moved.

He guessed the reason Ai Luotixiya did this: in her eyes, he is a god!

She truly believed in the Radiant Church's teachings and took herself as Saint Giles; that can't be called wrong, but rather a fortunate coincidence. If he had known beforehand that Ai Luotixiya would issue such an oath, he would certainly have stopped it, but now that she has sworn, refusing would be an insult to her.

At this moment, Lei En looked at the succubus kneeling before him, his gaze pure and calm, without any of those messy thoughts.

"I, Ryan Augustus, accept your service," Lei En said solemnly:

"May the Radiance shine upon you."

Then he placed his hand on Ai Luotixiya's head again, activating Holy Blood amber; dazzling light flickered rapidly, and Divine Technique runes coalesced before him, including "Healing," "Sword of Dawn," and "Holy Storm," among others, granting her all the Divine Techniques contained in the artifact.

Lei En did not infuse Ai Luotixiya with more Holy Light.

Her Holy Blood power and spiritual power are currently balanced; the two must be cultivated together, otherwise the Holy Blood power becomes too overwhelming and the soul state would become unbalanced.

Even so, Ai Luotixiya's strength surged dramatically.

Her soul has already awakened many abilities of the Blazing Heaven Divine Envoy, honed swordsmanship refined over millennia, methods of wielding Holy Light, and so on; these Divine Techniques are truly like adding wings to a tiger.

After bestowing the Divine Techniques, Lei En finally said, "May you someday find the justice in your heart, and set an example with your life, practicing true justice."

"Rise, Ai Luoya."

"Yes."

Ai Luotixiya stood up; the righteous lord blessed by Lei En seemed to affect her, and her eyes were slightly moist as she rose.

Seeing her still naked, Lei En said, "Li Feilin, bring Ai Luoya into the Holy Spear Knight Corps, equip her with weapons and armor, familiarize her with the Corps and the Church's duties, then report to me together."

Having said that, he teleported away.

The next day.

In the study of his highland fortress, Lei En was approached by two Holy Blood Angels together.

Ai Luotixiya had already changed into a fitted silver armor set, the style identical to Li Feilin's, and she wore the magical necklace Lei En gave her. Based on transmutation, it concealed the succubus aura; after advancing to Saint Rank, the "Enthrall" ability can be freely expanded or retracted, without exerting a lethal attraction on surrounding beings.

Nevertheless, her peerless beauty remained extremely eye‑catching; wherever she went she was the focus of the crowd, and a single glance was hard to forget.

"Everyone, sit down."

Lei En stood up, smiling, "Ai Luoya, have you already adapted to the Holy Blood Angel's power?"

Ai Luotixiya hadn't replied yet when Li Feilin praised, "Ai Luoya truly lives up to her former status as a Blazing Heaven Divine Envoy; in just one night she fully mastered Holy Blood power and Divine Techniques. Her swordsmanship is beyond compare; I am no longer her match."

"Sister Li Feilin is being lenient with me," the succubus explained modestly.

"You don't need to save face for me," Li Feilin said seriously, "I don't mind that your strength surpasses mine; we are both servants of Saint Giles, the stronger you are, the happier I am. The Radiant Church needs you to have great power."

Ai Luotixiya solemnly replied, "I will not fail the blood of Saint Giles!"

"Very good."

Lei En clapped his hands, seeing that Ai Luotixiya had already assumed her role, "Now let's discuss business, the plan to explore the Abyss."

Both Holy Blood Angels turned their attention.

Li Feilin had known long ago, but Ai Luotixiya was unaware.

Lei En looked at her and said plainly, "Ai Luoya, I have had an idea for a long time. The bottomless Abyss is the greatest threat to the Prime Material Plane; several Abyssal invasions have destroyed civilized societies, exterminated countless mortal species, and caused epochal shifts."

"Within the Abyss are billions of demons, and even older, terrifying evil gods."

"We cannot sit and wait for them to invade the world and destroy everything beautiful we have created. We must take the initiative, march into the Abyss."

Ai Luotixiya's eyes widened; Lei En's bold idea startled her.

"Of course, mortals cannot defeat the Abyss; whether in numbers or strength, the gap is too great," Lei En said with a wry smile, "But we can join the Abyss, create chaos and destruction within it, weaken their power, and render the demons powerless to invade the world."

"How do we do it?" Ai Luotixiya asked, very curious.

"Control the Abyssal Plane, let our people become Abyssal Lords." Lei En looked seriously at the succubus, "And you, Ai Luoya, are the most important part of this plan."
