The Witch Hunter System Chapter 1235: Oshenra’s Intentions
Previously on The Witch Hunter System...
Although Empyrean Oceanheart expressed her desire to repay Vaan, her tone was quite seductive, with a hint of a young lady’s playfulness, as if she were suggesting something.
If Seraphina had only suspected earlier, then now she was certain.
Her great-grandmother had truly set her eyes on Vaan. She was acting like a young lady and actively flirting with her.
Was this still the great-grandmother that she knew?
’What the hell! What are you going to do, Great-grandmother? How can you compete with your great-granddaughter for the same man you introduced her to?’ Seraphina silently complained.
Indeed, Empyrean Oceanheart had this intention subconsciously.
In the past, she wouldn’t even consider it, simply treating Vaan as a junior. However, after receiving his priceless gift, her perception and values underwent a great change. She knew she couldn’t keep seeing him as a junior.
Vaan was far too impressive. He kept surprising her.
This time, his favor was far too great; she didn’t know how else to repay but to offer herself. Of course, this wasn’t a selfless thought either; it involved some self-interest.
How could she have the heart to leave him after receiving so many benefits from him?
Only by shamelessly sticking to him would she continue to reap more benefits. There was no need to consider her face and dignity. One had to be shameless in order to achieve great things.
After a brief period of celebration, Empyrean Oceanheart discovered that her state of enlightenment had lasted only three hours.
The enlightenment state was generally short with immense gains, lasting no longer than an hour. For her to last up to three hours was indeed impressive. What was even more impressive was that she had comprehended the Nihility Law during this period.
Although the others didn’t know which law she had comprehended, they were nonetheless shocked senseless.
None of them knew that the laws could be comprehended so quickly; it was practically unprecedented.
Alas, considering Divine Lord Vaelith and the others only came from a Tier-9 Star Empire, their knowledge was bound to be limited. Such instances weren’t exactly rare in the Holy Lands, where geniuses thrived in numbers.
However, for the Nihility Law, it was indeed unprecedented.
Empyrean Oceanheart couldn’t wait to wield the power of nothingness and test its extraordinariness. It was hard for her not to be so eager. After all, this was the Nihility Law!
"I plan to resume Soul Cultivation. Can I entrust the remaining rescue and clean up to you, Empyrean Oceanheart?"
"Of course!"
Empyrean Oceanheart readily agreed to Vaan’s request, also realizing that this was his intention when he bestowed her such a priceless gift.
"However, I also have a request, Lord Vaan."
"Oh? Please tell, Empyrean Oceanheart."
"Just call me Oshenra from now on. No need for formalities."
"Hm... Alright, Oshenra."
Vaan glanced at Empyrean Oceanheart meaningfully while the latter felt her face heating up under his blatant gaze.
It was clear that she had made her intentions too obvious, but so what?
Never seen an Empyrean God pursue someone?
Empyrean Oceanheart boldly stared back at Vaan with a meaningful smile, exuding confidence and allure.
However, under the pressure of third-party gazes, she quickly realized her skin was not as thick as she had hoped it to be. Indeed, it was still quite shameful for her to suddenly pursue the same person she had tried to matchmake her great-granddaughter with.
"Ahem, I’m going to control the ship."
Empyrean Oceanheart awkwardly coughed, averting her gaze. She retreated, then distracted herself by focusing on the others.
"Don’t disturb Lord Vaan’s cultivation."
She seemed to warn the others out of consideration for Vaan, but in fact, she was pressuring them not to think or gossip recklessly.
Divine Lord Vaelith and the others could only oblige with rueful smiles.
...
As the Azure Wanderer continued its journey along the designated set path, Vaan found a suitable space for quiet meditation and soon re-entered the Astral Soul Realm.
With Empyrean Oceanheart temporarily taking charge of all matters in reality, he could focus on his own matters with peace of mind.
However, recalling Empyrean Oceanheart’s peerless beauty and bold attempts, Vaan couldn’t help but feel moved. It was impossible for a man like him not to be.
An extremely high-quality woman like her was the dream and desire of many men.
Unfortunately, only a few beings were qualified to seek her out to become their life-bound companion openly, and they were generally all True Divinities. Others wouldn’t even have the qualifications to express their fondness, as it would be regarded as disrespect.
Alas, Vaan didn’t dare claim such peerless beauty. Her cultivation was too high for him.
Given his unique constitution and dual cultivation benefits, Empyrean Oceanheart’s vast primordial yin energy would cause his body to explode to death, similar to overeating.
Now that Empyrean Oceanheart’s cultivation had elevated to the middle stage of the Empyrean God Realm, the primordial yin energy stored in her profound and flawless body had also increased by a frightening amount.
Thus, if he stubbornly forced her to bed, he would really experience death by snu snu.
’Sigh... Winning the favor of such a high-quality woman is not easy. Yet, I can only look but not touch,’ Vaan thought wryly, knowing he could only act like an eunuch.
He knew his own skills all too well.
If he carelessly ignited Empyrean Oceanheart’s desire, he wouldn’t have the power to stop her from forcing herself onto him. In the end, he would still die in a violent energy explosion.
’Fuu.... Inner peace.’
Vaan quickly tried to calm himself, adjusting his mental state for optimum cultivation. Oshenra’s innate charm was rather terrifying, easily stroking his innate desire.
Several breaths later, Vaan focused on his surroundings.
In the Astral Soul Realm, he was still seated on the bridge of the Azure Wanderer. His point of entry had always reflected reality.
The location might be different, but one thing would always remain the same—the original soul.
Wherever he appeared in the Astral Soul Realm, the original soul would also be there. It was bound to him.
Still, due to its sheer size, it couldn’t really be seen, only sensed. He was like a grain of sand inside an inflated balloon; he couldn’t see its true form unless his perception spread to such a scale.
Suddenly, Vaan had a serious thought.
