Chapter 363: Power of Faith
After two hours of pounding and screaming in ecstasy, Sylphia was utterly exhausted, unable to move even an inch. Her sacred hole had been filled with Aldrian’s seed multiple times, causing her body to twitch occasionally from the lingering pleasure. Sweat and traces of their passion covered her skin, making it glisten.
"My love, your stamina is no joke! And you always hit the spot. How did your cultivation improve so drastically? What happened over the past year?" Sylphia asked through gasping breaths.
"Did you know you caused a huge commotion last year? Many people rushed to the main church and gathered in front of it. That place was in chaos, even the church was overwhelmed by the sheer number of people wanting to offer their prayers inside. They thought the heavens had descended. Even now, people are still flocking to this city as if on a pilgrimage."
Aldrian wasn’t surprised. It had been unexpected that he could directly connect to the heavens and cause such a grand phenomenon.
"I had an enlightenment and couldn’t pull myself out of the comprehension state at that time. I just wanted to seize that rare opportunity. I never expected it to last for more than a year," he answered, half-truthfully.
He wasn’t lying about enlightenment and cultivating, but he chose not to mention his conversation with the heavens—or with that figure. He feared that telling Sylphia about it would place an unnecessary burden on her karma and destiny.
Sylphia nodded, but then suddenly narrowed her eyes at him.
"You seem close to the Saintess, huh? You even brought her here in disguise to avoid drawing attention."
Aldrian smiled at her and leaned in closer to her pointy ear.
"Jealous?" His warm breath against her ear made her shiver, but she only pouted at him.
"Who’s jealous? I was just wondering how someone of her status who rarely steps outside ended up following you. Even the Pope allowed it, which means he must trust you immensely. I can only imagine that for a woman of her status and special ’condition,’ the Pope would be extremely strict."
