Paragon of Sin

n Realm, Yin Form Phase. 

He had been over the moon to find such a young woman, hopefully wife, but his thoughts were overturned by the harshness of reality.
All her sweet words and playful demeanor was merely a false display to lower his guard, and he was brought into a trap that contained hundreds of loose male cultivators at the Yang Growth Phase like himself.

A trap!

A specialized group of women were standing with her as they stared at the men within metal cages who shouted out confused voices and bargaining pleas.
Even declaring their love for some of these women, trying to appeal to their better nature.
Yet all they received were contemptuous sneers and disdainful eyes. 

They were all being sold.

Fallen for the honey trap, Yao Houyi was left distraught.
When the woman he had nearly fallen for arrived by his cage, he merely stared at her.

She asked, with a smirk, ”No sweet-sounding words? No telling me how much you love me? Have you given up? ” 

Her facial expression and those eyes were etched into his mind and heart, but he wasn ’t goaded into a hostile response.
Instead, he merely smiled and responded, refusing to give her any satisfaction: ”I ’ve lived the way I wanted to live; I have no regrets nor will I beg for this life of mine. ” 

As he said those words, his life flashed before his eyes, including his love for his bow and arrows when he was just a child.
When he shot those arrows at the wooden trees near their farm, he recalled when he was at his happiest. 

His mother had just brought him a cup of water and some snacks to ensure he didn ’t overwork himself or suffer from hunger.
They sat down as his smile refused to go down, eating the snacks in a rambunctious manner.
He wanted to get back to practicing so bad that his mother had to remind him to slow down, the trees aren ’t begging to be filled with more holes. 

Her laughter was like music to one ’s ears.
He never realized it until he recalled these memories. 

The young Yao Houyi responded with an embarrassed swallow and ate slower, prompting her laughter.
To her, he was her overly active child that she loved with all her heart.
When he finished, he rose and the solar stars slightly scorched their skin.
He hadn ’t realized that it was hot, needing to take this break.

Looking up, he saw nine stars, be it close or far.
He hadn ’t realized that this moment was a rare sequence of orbit that allowed all nine Solar Stars to be seen at once, but only from a very limited area, and they were settled right at that area.
Instinctively, he lifted his bow and nocked an arrow at the biggest Solar Star in his view.

He shot it at the Solar Star! 

”Ah! ” He exclaimed frightfully as the arrow fell a few feet from him, blinded by the solar stars in its descent. 

His mother rushed over and after learning that Yao Houyi was unharmed, she sighed.
With a faint look at the arrow, she couldn ’t help but smilingly ask: ”Were you trying to shoot the stars out of the sky? ” 

Yao Houyi remembered himself blushing so hard that his face became hotter than the scorching rays of the nine Solar Stars.
He pouted and said: ”One day. ”

Taken aback by her son ’s declaration, she revealed a brilliant smile.
She caressed his youthful, twelve-year old face lovingly.
When Yao Houyi returned to practicing, unbeknownst to him, the mother left and heard a faint rustling.
She found her husband looking a little to the side, a faint blush on his face after being seen. 

The two exchanged knowing glances and then smiled, returning home in each other ’s embrace. 

Returning to his cage, a voice sounded out a little frustrated.
”No regrets? I don ’t believe it. ”

But Yao Houyi ’s eyes flashed, and then he sighed.
”You ’re right.
I do have one regret in my life. ”

Curious, the woman asked: ”What is it? ” It was as if she was hoping he would say her or something relating to her, probably to feed her ego and deal with some deep-seated insecurity. 

Yao Houyi smiled, ”I wasn ’t able to shoot a star out of the sky. ” When he said those words, his eyes emitted a faint radiance that contained a certain will. 

At this moment, a young-looking male cultivator arrived and saw this scene.
He noticed the signs of Intent, but it was from a measly Yang Growth Phase cultivator, so he dismissed it.
Yet what he saw was a little more than just an Intent awakening. 

—–

After being imprisoned, Yao Houyi was brought to the facility and had his yang energies extracted slowly.
Unlike a woman ’s yin energies, those at the Yang Growth Phase could replenish their yang energies endlessly as long as their Yang Source remained undamaged.
Of course, continuous extraction led to eventual collapse of one ’s Yang Source unless they possessed a Yang Renewal Physique.

They all had expiration dates. 

He had been subjected to extraction for the last two years…

Now, Yao Houyi had awakened away from the damp cell to a spacious area that resembled those boats that soared across the skies.

”You ’re finally up, good. ” A voice snatched Yao Houyi ’s attention, finding a silver-eyed, unearthly handsome male walking towards him.
He felt a strange feeling in his mind that caused him to question his own sexuality for a moment…

”… ” 

”You mind showing me? ” The silver-eyed man said as he stopped a few meters away from him, wearing an interested expression.

”…Showing you what? ” He couldn ’t help but reply, much to his surprise.

The silver-eyed man smiled, causing that strange feeling to arise once again, and answered: ”Your World Heart Intent. ”
