Paragon Of Sin - Chapter 711 - 706: Soldier Of War, Boundless Yin Saintess

While Autumn was undergoing its slaughter, an act that will serve as a reminder to all forces within the Endless Prosperity Domain of the prestige and brutality of the Dragonborn Saintess, ninth on the Immortal Saintess Ranking, the tenth on the Immortal Saintess Ranking was facing her own set of troubles. 

In the Everlore Domain, there was a medium-sized planet named Immortal Yin. It was surrounded by a ring of grey misty light, emanating out a cold, dangerous aura of yin. Housing the prestigious Gold-tier force named the Dark Yin Palace, the Immortal Yin was heavily regarded for their gorgeous women and connections amongst Gold-tier forces.

At the edge of this planet, a Voidship was descending through a regulated entry point established by the Dark Yin Palace. All ships from the Dark Void must enter through one of its twelve entry points lest they be assaulted by the Immortal Yin's planetary formation, the Divine Yin Ring Array. 

This particular Voidship belonged to the Dark Yin Palace and was owned by the Palace Master herself, Exalted Purewhite or Jun Baiyin. On this ship were a crew composed entirely of women, all of which were attractive in both appearance and aura. Jun Baiyin's exquisitely enchanting figure was standing on the deck alongside another figure that was younger, even exceeding her in appearance.

Na Xinyi's beautiful countenance was marred by a frown, yet the frustrated look barely did much to harm her image. 

Jun Baiyin had a wry smile on her face, her eyes glimmering with complex emotion. This young woman who was originally accepted as a Core Disciple due to her unique physique had become the Dark Yin Palace's Chosen and the nominated tenth-rank Saintess on the Immortal Saintess Ranking. 

After that unknown Venerable and Ma Sujiang arrived, she had taken Na Xinyi in as her personal disciple, teaching her the most unique and powerful Yin Arts, but this young woman was quite problematic. No, she was outrageously domineering and fierce. 

The Dark Yin Palace had its fair share of shady practices, including even engagements with organizations that practiced a variety of Evil Methods. In fact, some of their girls would often go missing. They would be declared as KWT, or killed while traveling, but the truth was that they were often sold to prestigious men from high-tier forces. Their enriched, centuries of cultivated yin energies and retained Primal Yin would be devoured by these men.

And this was just one of the dealings that they had their hands in.

Then, Long Tingyu had abruptly vanished without rhyme and reason. Na Xinyi and this Long Tingyu stemmed from the same destroyed starfield, the Everlore Starfield, and seemed to have a close relationship. Due to this, Na Xinyi had deeply investigated all the illicit practices by the Yin Palace. Furthermore, Jun Baiyin accommodated for fear of enraging whatever force or backing that this Na Xinyi belonged to.

She wasn't an idiot. That unknown Venerable and Ma Sujiang arriving, both acting extremely strange in regards to Na Xinyi, carefully toeing the line, she knew that Na Xinyi's status was extremely special. 

Now, Na Xinyi was acting as if she controlled the Dark Yin Palace, directly severing the relationship with these shady partners and even ransacking a few of them in search of Long Tingyu. What was worse, during a battle, a Mystic Star Phase cultivator had held her up, and then another acted to capture Na Xinyi. However, without warning, a phenomenon of endless stars and imperial might manifested, and that Mystic Star Phase expert was brutally slaughtered. 

It terrified her and her opponent, so much that her opponent directly fled in fear. Not only was Na Xinyi's status special, but she was protected by a genuine Ascended! Yet Long Tingyu was nowhere to be found, and Jun Baiyin was at a loss! Because she genuinely had nothing to do with it! Now, she was left having to abide by this little girl's words. 

That said, Na Xinyi's vicious actions of uprooting entire forces during this period had gained her a name, the Boundless Yin Saintess. This was because she took things to an extreme, and devastated these forces without any mercy, and possessed a unique Yin Physique that bestowed her immense yin energies. She was a woman with a mission, a feared existence by many. 

Almost every Gold-tier force in the domain was afraid she would descend, unable to harm her, and unable to resist. It was her unknown background and means that allowed her to elevate her position to the tenth-rank on the Immortal Saintess Ranking, including her own exceptional talent and beauty as she ravaged the world. 

There were few who didn't know the name: Na Xinyi!

"Xinyi, I don't think our Dark Yin Palace had anything to do with Long Tingyu's disappearance. I think an unfathomable expert acted, taking her away. They definitely exceed any connections we have," Jun Baiyin tried to explain. She was really vexed by this development. 

It was even worse with Na Xinyi acting as the leader, even commanding her. But when she thought about Ma Sujiang's words of that unknown Venerable capable of breaching the planet to kill her, she accepted her circumstances for now. She had extended her lifespan after failing her Ascension with hard effort and a lot of sacrifices, so she didn't want to throw that away. However, if anyone knew that master was acting so meekly to their disciple, she would feel as if all her face was thrown away.

Na Xinyi's furrowed brows deepened. She looked to the runic marking on the back of her right hand that glittered with light, filled with stars that moved about animatedly. Clenching her fist tightly, a surge of mystic power caused the space to quiver.

Jun Baiyin felt the pressure and took several steps back, her heart thrumming with fearful hymns. The Exalted Purewhite was contemplating running, her heart just unable to handle that constantly engulfing pressure. 

Yet Na Xinyi didn't act, merely unclenched her fist and relieved the stifling pressure. She said with an indifferent voice, "I know." After saying this, she retreated back into the internal quarters of the Voidship, leaving behind the trepidation of her figure in Jun Baiyin's heart. 

Na Xinyi stopped in the hallways, slamming her fist against the wall with a harsh pound. "I know…you wouldn't just protect me, right?" She recognized this phenomenon within the runic mark as the same one as Long Chen's ring. Whenever it exploded with power, revealing itself during their struggles, this star-filled manifestation with an imperial aura was always the result. 

However, she knew that the ring was in Wei Wuyin's possession. Furthermore, he had left her that ring. She believed that he left protections in her body during that time, unbeknownst that it was Wu Yu who had done it personally after the letter.

She believed that Wei Wuyin was responsible for this mark, and she didn't think he would leave Long Tingyu without any protection. While she didn't receive a ring, it was unlike him at all. And she would be right, Wei Wuyin might not have directly left her a spatial ring, but Xiang Ling had one. Considering their relationship, he considered them as one.

Wu Yu was aware of his romantic relationships and knew about Xiang Ling and Long Tingyu's own intimate relationship like mother and daughter, so there was no way he wouldn't act to protect her in accordance with his orders. However, his mark was removed by an demonic force of unfathomable power, and even Wu Yu, a quasi Demi-Mortal Lord was unable to locate her. 

If she considered that Wei Wuyin likely left a similar mark on Long Tingyu, then Long Tingyu must've been taken away by a powerful being. She didn't want to believe she died, because the mark activated instinctually, so a commotion should've erupted if the individual had ill-intentions. 

Long Tingyu was like a little sister to her, and she was deeply emotionally invested. Their relationship was so close that Long Chen's deliberate action of allowing her to suffer harm had caused Long Tingyu to break away from him! Afterwhich, their relationship became closer than ever, even joining the same force together! 

Long Tingyu had even joined the Dark Yin Palace because she knew Na Xinyi was going to be there! 

As for Na Xinyi's actions of dealing with those shady forces and eliminating the Dark Yin Palace's connections with them was only because of her own revulsion and disgust. She was intent on remodeling the Dark Yin Palace, and one day, make it hers to rule. The runic mark just allowed it to happen sooner, but it wasn't limitless. So she had to use what little power left with intelligence and caution.

Her eyes lit with a determined brilliance, "If you've been taken, I'll find you…and if a single hair on your head is harmed, I'll...." That determined brilliance was replaced by a sharp lethality.
