Huh? What do you mean your mother is one of the seven deadly sins?!

Feelings can be cultivated slowly, but if I don't take advantage of this free experience package, wouldn't I be letting down my mother's good intentions?

The lighting inside the palace was adjusted to an ambiguous warm tone, and the sweet fragrance in the air seemed to become even more intense and intoxicating.

When Lin Xia completely opened his mind and body and actively activated the "Seven Deadly Sins: Desire Chapter", he truly experienced the domineering and magical nature of this supreme magic book wielded by his mother.

That feeling... was like opening the door to a whole new world!

He seemed to have transformed into a highly efficient and precise energy conversion core.

The various desires that succubi naturally exude or actively release.

Curiosity, shyness, longing, admiration, and even a little bit of competitive desire.

They all transformed into the purest energy threads, which he continuously absorbed into his body.

The core of the technique is like an inexhaustible furnace, instantly refining and purifying these impure desires into pure desire power, nourishing his spiritual origins, and cleansing and strengthening his blood and bones.

What's even more amazing is that this process itself, like firewood thrown into a furnace, in turn stimulates the succubi to have stronger and purer emotional fluctuations and desires, forming a perfect and ever-renewing energy cycle!

Absorb, transform, release, reabsorb... the cycle repeats endlessly, with astonishingly high efficiency!

Lin Xia felt as if she were soaking in a hot spring made of pure energy, with every cell cheering and greedily absorbing the power.

My spirit was more full and clear than ever before, and I felt like I had inexhaustible energy in my body. Even my five senses became more acute, and I could even hear the accelerated heartbeats and soft breathing of the succubi around me.

This is hardly cultivation.

This is practically a super cheat code with unlimited mana and health! A veritable perpetual motion machine!

No sleep for one night.

Lin Xia slowly opened her eyes.

Standing shirtless in front of a huge floor-length mirror, looking at himself in the mirror, he felt a little unfamiliar with himself.

His originally slender physique now has smooth lines and is full of power. The outline of his muscles is not exaggerated, but it is like the most perfect sculpture, containing explosive power.

The skin seemed to be enveloped in a layer of radiant glow, delicate and firm, with a healthy wheat color.

The most noticeable change is on his face. The angles of his features seem more defined, with sword-like eyebrows, bright eyes, and a high nose bridge. On top of his already delicate features, he has gained an indescribable temperament that blends youthful heroism with bewitching charm.

Especially her eyes, deep and bright, with a flash of dark golden light seemingly passing through the depths of her pupils, carrying a sense of power that could see into people's hearts. Inadvertently, her gaze caused a petite succubus standing beside her to blush and her heart to race.

"Tsk tsk tsk..."

Lilith's languid voice came from the side. She leaned against the soft couch, resting her chin on one hand, her blood-red eyes filled with amazement and undisguised admiration.

"Little Xia, this change in you... is too unfair! It's only been one night, and you seem like a completely different person."

Lilith licked her red lips, her eyes burning even more intensely.

"It seems I'll have to work even harder to cultivate myself so I can be worthy of you."

Lin Xia smiled upon hearing this.

"Sister Lilith, you're joking!"

Lin Xia finished dressing and had just straightened her collar when a soft but clear knock sounded at the door.

"Young Master, Her Majesty the Queen requests your presence."

The succubus maid's voice came through the door.

"Okay, I'm coming."

Lin Xia responded and turned to Lilith, saying:

"Sister Lilith, Mom is calling me, I'll go now."

Lilith's face was still flushed. Upon hearing this, she simply nodded slightly and gave a vague "hmm."

Lin Xia followed the maid through the dazzling corridor and arrived once again at her mother's warm and majestic bedroom.

Outside the huge floor-to-ceiling windows, the light flowing from the abyss lava bathed the interior in a warm orange hue. Liu Ruyan stood beside a long table laden with various dishes, smiling broadly.

"Xia, come quick!"

Liu Ruyan gestured, pointing to the dazzling array of food on the table.

"Try it, Mom made all of this herself, see if it suits your taste?"

Lin Xia's gaze fell on the exquisite pastries, which were like works of art, and the tempting aroma of the food. The familiar yet unfamiliar scent of home lingered around her nose.

Lin Xia's Adam's apple bobbed slightly, and a hint of tears welled up in her eyes.

He didn't say anything, just nodded heavily, pulled out a chair, sat down, picked up his utensils, and began to eat.

Lin Xia ate very slowly and attentively, as if she wanted to make up for all the flavors she had missed over the past ten years.

Every bite is piping hot, soothing the deepest corner of your heart.

He only put down his utensils when he could no longer eat, and looked up with a satisfied yet slightly dazed expression.

"Mother!"

Lin Xia's voice was a little hoarse.

"I must... not be dreaming, right?"

Liu Ruyan looked at him, her eyes filled with tenderness and heartache.

She took a deep breath, suppressed her surging emotions, and shook her head firmly.

"It's not a dream, Xia. From now on, whenever you want, Mom will make it for you every day."

"Um!"

Lin Xia nodded vigorously, and a genuine smile finally appeared on her lips.

Seeing his satisfied expression, Liu Ruyan felt a warm glow in her heart.

Seemingly sensing the atmosphere was becoming a bit too sentimental, he coughed lightly, then put on a slightly mischievous smile and asked:

"By the way, Xia, did you sleep well last night?"

Lin Xia's smile froze for a moment, then turned into an awkward chuckle as she looked away.

"Huh? Oh... It's... it's fine."

Liu Ruyan took in his reaction and nodded in satisfaction, as if confirming something important.

She picked up a cup of deep purple floral tea, took a sip, and spoke as naturally as if she were discussing the weather.

"That's good. Now that you've rested well, work hard so that Mom can hold her grandson soon."

"Pfft—cough cough cough!"

Lin Xia had just taken a sip of milk when she heard this and almost spat it all out, choking and coughing, her face instantly turning bright red.

"Mom! We can't rush this! I've only just turned 18! And... what's all this about?!"

Seeing her son's embarrassed and helpless look, a sly smile flashed in Liu Ruyan's eyes, but she still sighed with feigned regret.

"Okay, okay, Mom was just saying it casually, no rush."

Lin Xia didn't want to dwell on this topic for too long, so she immediately asked:

"Mom, didn't you say yesterday you were going to take me somewhere today?"

Where are we going?

Liu Ruyan stood up, walked to the huge French window, looked at the churning abyss outside, and uttered four words.

"City of Angels".

Lin Xia was taken aback, thinking she had misheard.

"Heavens...City of Angels?"
