Chapter 224: Holy Devil Dragon Sect Vs Lin Family (Slowly)
Meanwhile, at the Holy Devil Dragon Sect, Wang Li was indulging in one of his many carnal escapades. The morning had begun with him taking his sexy cousin, Wang Xiangyi, to bed.
Her lithe body writhed beneath his touch as he slowly and deliberately explored every inch of her, savoring the feel of her soft skin and the way she moaned his name.
Wang Li was a master of pleasure, and he took his time, building her up to a crescendo of passion that left her gasping and pleading for more.
Her large breasts heaved with each breath, and her eyes were filled with hearts as she surrendered completely to his desires.
But even after thoroughly satisfying Wang Xiangyi, Wang Li’s hunger was far from sated. His carnal desires still burned within him, and he craved more. Leaving his cousin in a state of blissful exhaustion, Wang Li sought out his dear wife, Xia Qingwu.
Xia Qingwu had long become accustomed to her husband’s insatiable appetite, and she welcomed him with open arms. Wang Li wasted no time, pulling her close and capturing her lips in a searing kiss.
Their bodies intertwined as he took her with a slow, deliberate pace, each thrust deep and powerful. Xia Qingwu’s soft cries of pleasure echoed through the chamber, her body arching against him as he drove her to the peak of ecstasy.
Yet, despite her best efforts, even Xia Qingwu couldn’t fully quench the fire burning within him.
Still unsatisfied, Wang Li turned his attention to his mother-in-law, Xia Bingling. She had always been a source of both temptation and comfort for him, her mature beauty and voluptuous figure a constant allure.
When Wang Li entered her chambers, Xia Bingling knew exactly what he wanted.
She smiled, beckoning him to her bed, where they engaged in a passionate and intense session of lovemaking.
Unlike the others, Xia Bingling seemed to understand his needs on a deeper level, matching his intensity and meeting his every demand with a grace and fervor that finally began to satisfy him.
After spending a considerable amount of time with Xia Bingling, Wang Li finally felt the edge of his desires begin to dull.
He left her chambers feeling more at ease, though the fire within him was never fully extinguished. His mother-in-law had managed to satiate him, if only temporarily, and he knew he would return to her again soon.
With his immediate desires sated, Wang Li decided to return to his office to check on the affairs of the Holy Devil Dragon Sect.
As he reviewed the reports, his expression darkened. It was clear that the Qin Imperial Family, the Azure Dragon Pavilion, and the Tang Family of Sichuan had begun targeting his sect.
Their influence was spreading, and they were actively undermining the Holy Devil Dragon Sect’s operations. Markets were shifting, trade deals were falling through, and some of the sect’s more vulnerable branches were under attack.
Wang Li knew that contending against three powerful factions, in addition to the Lin Family, was a daunting task.
The combined might of these enemies was not something that the Holy Devil Dragon Sect could easily withstand. It was clear that a change in strategy was needed, and that continuing the direct assault on the Lin Family would only further isolate his sect.
After a moment of contemplation, Wang Li decided that it was time to relieve some of the pressure on the Lin Family.
He would redirect his sect’s efforts, focusing on consolidating their existing gains rather than pushing for further dominance. He would also need to reach out to his own allies, particularly those in the Silver Moon Palace, to bolster his position and prepare for the battles that lay ahead.
Wang Li summoned his most trusted advisors and began issuing new orders.
The Holy Devil Dragon Sect would adopt a more defensive posture, shoring up their defenses and securing their key resources.
They would also work to discredit the Qin Imperial Family, the Azure Dragon Pavilion, and the Tang Family of Sichuan, just as they had done with the Lin Family.
The battle was far from over, but Wang Li was confident that with the right strategy, his sect would prevail.
As the meeting concluded, Wang Li’s mind returned to the women who had served him so well in his quest for power.
He knew that he would soon return to them, seeking both pleasure and information.
But for now, his focus was on the war that was unfolding, a war that would determine the future of the Holy Devil Dragon Sect and its place in the cultivation world.
As tensions continued to simmer between the Holy Devil Dragon Sect and the Lin Family, the confrontations that had been brewing for weeks finally began to escalate. The air was thick with a sense of impending conflict, and the smaller sects and lower-ranked members were the first to engage, skirmishing along the borders of territories that both sides sought to control.
On the Holy Devil Dragon Sect’s side, Wang Li had issued strict orders to his upper echelons: they were to avoid direct conflict with the Lin Family’s higher-ranked members for the time being. Wang Li understood that an all-out war with the Lin Family, combined with their newfound allies, could tip the scales against his sect. Instead, he instructed his lower-ranked disciples and minor sect allies to engage in battles with their Lin Family counterparts and those loyal to them. These fights were not intended to be decisive but were meant to probe the strength and resolve of the Lin Family while keeping the upper-tier cultivators out of the immediate fray.
It started subtly. The first encounters were almost accidental—a border dispute here, a minor trade squabble there. However, as the Holy Devil Dragon Sect’s lower-ranked disciples began to exert their influence, the confrontations turned more intentional. These initial clashes took place in remote areas where oversight was minimal, giving both sides plausible deniability while testing each other’s strength.
One such skirmish occurred in the Outer Rim of the Holy Devil Dragon Sect’s controlled territory, a region known for its sparse resources but strategic positioning along trade routes. A group of young disciples from the Holy Devil Dragon Sect had been dispatched to secure a key outpost along a crucial mountain pass. The Lin Family, anticipating this move, had sent an equally youthful contingent of cultivators to assert control over the area.
The battle erupted swiftly as both sides collided in a flurry of spiritual energy and martial prowess. The air crackled with the force of elemental attacks, and the ground shook as powerful techniques were unleashed. Despite being composed mostly of lower-ranked cultivators, the intensity of the fight was fierce, as each side sought to gain the upper hand. Swords clashed, formations shifted, and spirit beasts summoned by the Lin Family’s disciples roared in defiance.
Though the Holy Devil Dragon Sect’s fighters were formidable, they were not without their challenges. Many of the Lin Family’s cultivators had been rigorously trained, and their techniques were precise. The disciples from both sides struggled to overpower each other, but the Holy Devil Dragon Sect had the advantage of better resources and more aggressive tactics. They had been taught not to hold back, to fight with ruthless efficiency, and to seek every opportunity to exploit their opponents’ weaknesses.
In another skirmish, closer to the Silver Moon Forest, a band of Holy Devil Dragon Sect disciples encountered a convoy of Lin Family allies from the Tang Family of Sichuan. The Tang Family, known for their expertise in stealth techniques and long-range attacks, had sent a group of skilled archers and shadow cultivators to safeguard their interests in the region. When the two forces met, the resulting battle was a whirlwind of arrows, shadow strikes, and quick, brutal close-combat exchanges.
Despite the obvious disparity in strength between the lower-ranked disciples and the upper echelon members, the orders from above were clear: the higher-ranked members of the sects were to stay out of the fighting unless absolutely necessary. This was a calculated maneuver on both sides, designed to keep the conflict at a simmering level, rather than allowing it to boil over into all-out war.
Yet, the battles were no less bloody for it. The younger disciples of both sects fought with fervor, knowing that their efforts could make or break the reputations of their sects. Many saw this as an opportunity to prove their worth, while others fought out of loyalty to their families or sect leaders. For some, the fight was personal—a chance to strike back against those who had wronged them in the past.
In a particularly intense clash near the border of the Qin Imperial Family’s territory, a group of Holy Devil Dragon Sect disciples found themselves ambushed by a Lin Family task force. The Lin Family’s group had laid in wait, concealing themselves with powerful illusion techniques, until the Holy Devil Dragon Sect members were deep in their territory. When the ambush was sprung, the disciples of the Holy Devil Dragon Sect were caught off guard, but they quickly rallied, summoning powerful defensive formations to protect themselves.
