The yurt went silent after the refinements succeeded , save for the rhythmic breathing of the five women resting on the thick furs beside me. The residual heat from our earlier wild activity still lingered in the air, a physical manifestation of the immense emotions traded during the passionate communication that had just taken place.
But while their body was at rest, inside my skull, a storm of terrifying clarity raged.something a person like me never tires of .I think i understand what Einstein felt , "the pist sex clarity", it seems even in different worlds some rules remain the same.
The Rank 4 Ecstatic Thought Gu was humming in my brain, it was a biological engine fueled by the raw, unadulterated pleasure of the last few hours. It harvested every gasp, every touch, every spike of euphoria, and transmuted them into Joyful Thoughts. Unlike standard thoughts, which were like heavy stones—laborious to move and hard to merge—these Joyful Thoughts were buoyant, playful, and blindingly fast. They moved through my mind with zero resistance, colliding, fusing, and breaking apart at full speed , i had used it once and knew how terrifyingly useful they were so wasting any time was an unforgivable mistake endangering my future.
I closed my eyes, letting the Joyful Thoughts process the most critical threat to my existence again : Heaven's Will.
As an Otherworldly Demon, I am a virus in this world. By all rights, Fate Gu and Heaven's Will could direct the entire northern plains to crush me even in their weakened state the moment they realise what i am it was already shown by decreasing the talent of thieving heavens how merciless and serious they were .
Yet, Dog Shit Luck Gu had shielded me so far, keeping my luck vigorous enough to evade its absolute net. Red Lotus Demon Venerable had damaged Fate Gu, and Thieving Heaven's actions in the Crazed Demon Cave had weakened Heaven's Will, forcing it into periods of hibernation.
There was a huge hole in the net it created giving me the opportunity, i should not waste this opportunity by any means possible otherwise there will be no turning back when it reorganized itself and found out about me that would mean my death.
But now that i think more after calming my mind after a period of enjoyment and power increase i find out , I was pushing my luck. Literally.
My Joyful Thoughts collided with a glaring anomaly it found the problem i had ignored in my actions: Hei Ziyu.
In the original timeline, Hei Ziyu's presence was non-existent otherwise giant sun would have kept her as someone with so much potential , and about the inheritance it may have moved to my hands far into the future as my problem of sexual incapablity was solved far into the future she would not have been the one connecting hei tribe and me. She was meant to be a minor character probably , perhaps dying early or being used as refinement material. But now, she was not only alive; she was bound to me, posessing a Great Strength True Martial Physique, and she had advanced to Rank 3.
Now she is like a beacon , the Joyful Thoughts concluded rapidly. A massive, radiating anomaly maybe it doesn't alert the heavens will but her existence next to me will change the future and it may be so much that red lotus notices the anomaly. So i had two options now , one hiding her next to me as a dark piece like yue yin or sending her out from my circle of contacts.
Keeping a Rank 3 powerhouse who shouldn't exist by my side as a mere bodyguard was not only a waste of an incredible asset, but it was also a blatant middle finger to the trajectory of Fate being too much stronger than fate wants me to be would be detrimental to some of the opportunities it may send and having yue yin is enough for now as i will not use them unless some necessary situation arises.
If she stayed here, acting as my shadow, the ripples we create would eventually overlap in some part of the riverb , magnifying my odd behaviours .Even Heaven's Will would notice the divergence then. It would send beast hordes, blizzards, or "righteous" Gu Masters or even gu immortals to eradicate the anomaly.
I shouldn't keep her here, I realized, the Joyful Thoughts spinning out dozens of future scenarios. But I will not discard my own strength .
A cold smile touched my lips in the dark. The divergence of the pawns is the move spectral soul did using his own soul separations as a mean , why can't I send my girls undercover to diffrent places?
I am playing the board, thd shole world is a chess game my father thinks he is the King but he is a pawn in anothers game , the Immortals think they are the chess players but even they are the pawns of someone else , in this world everyone is a pawn but i will not always remain the pawn , while playing i will be the king while scheming i will scheme both chess players , i shall pave a path to the goal i have with all their schemes as a floor board they will only help me in every step they try to stop me .
we are the Thieves in this period as the thing we could do as that is more exceptional. What does a thief do when they possess a valuable asset they cannot openly carry? They stash it where no one would look.
I would send Hei Ziyu back to the Hei Tribe. That will help me control the hei tribe from within and if by chance we could help her reach immortal level she will be a strong piece with a whole super tribe in her hands .
The plan formed with pristine perfection. She had survived a brutal encounter with the Ju Tribe. She had "been captured" after a fierce struggle , seeing the loss of the frontline and the support stations she had made a plan of using herself as a means to attack us or find an opportunity for the hei tribe , but the battle of life and death had forced her to break through to Rank 3 an unexpected surprise to her .
After the ascending to rank 3 she used her power and subservient attitude to make the ju tribe less vigilant , during the preparation for attack she robs the ju tribe treasury of some important information and gu recipes as well as a large amount of material and primival essence and bring them back to the Hei Tribe.
It may not be enough ordinarily but the incoming battle would be extremely important if the su tribe leader comes out as a rank 5 and could change the battle situation in her tribes sake , my side winning the hei tribe would be too outstanding , i could use the loss there to give some more credibility to her plan , she wouldn't be a defeated commander; she would be a returning hero, a genius who had ascended to rank 3 in an age too young to be believable and made a feat no one in the tribe has done and survived behind enemy lines, to top it off she even robbed their treasury.
With her new Rank 3 cultivation and the resources she takes with her , it may arouse a supreme elders intrest in helping her growth, she would easily suppress her peers. She would rise to become an Elder just by this merit and cultivation , perhaps even a faction leader within the Hei Tribe.
And all the while, her loyalty, would remain absolutely mine.
She would be my hidden agent. She would be a key to Hei Tribe resources, feed me intelligence on what i want through the intel they gather , and help me in more ways when needed . More importantly, her rise to power in the Hei Tribe would look like the natural progression of a genius to Heaven's Will too there are too many things it has to deal with anyway , hiding the fact that her strings were being pulled by me was easier this way.
I looked over at her sitting form. Her bronze skin glistened slightly, the terrifying heat of her battle-maniac persona now softened into a liquid glow in her eyes. She was a weapon to destroy her enemies and only loyal to me, and I was about to point her directly at the heart of the enemy , if needed she will attack , if needed she will help them grow for my future harvest.
The most important thing also is if the robbery goes well i will gain great gains through this act maybe increasing my cultivation level easier.
With the long-term placement of my spy decided, the Joyful Thoughts shifted to my immediate, short-term goals.
