Chapter 248: Chapter 171: Special Achievement Accomplished, Li Feiyu’s First Wife_2
Translator: 549690339
Han Li and Mu Wanyan spent an hour together, during which Han Li issued various commands, all of which Mu Wanyan obeyed.
This pleased the old patriarch Han immensely.
Although she was still some way off from being tamed like fairy Cheng Li, it was acceptable, so Han Li said indifferently, “Since you’re so keen on marrying into the Li Manor to serve this old man as a concubine, then you shall be a servant concubine.”
Mu Wanyan’s figure trembled, and she asked weakly, “May I become an official concubine?”
Her purpose in coming to the Li Manor on her own was not to be a servant concubine but to become Li Feiyu’s wife or official concubine, to gain a status that could help her mother.
If she were to be a servant concubine, without a title or status, it would be practically giving herself away for nothing, and she would not be able to help her mother at all.
Having been subdued by Han Li for an hour, Mu Wanyan’s confidence had greatly diminished. Understanding her outcome, she only wished to strive for better treatment.
“It’s not out of the question…” Han Li thought of the figure he had seen earlier, thought for a moment, and then said.
“What are your conditions?”
Mu Wanyan looked up hopefully at Li Feiyu.
“Unless…” Han Li smiled and stated his condition.
“No, absolutely not.”
Mu Wanyan’s head shook like a rattle-drum in vehement refusal; she could not accept such a situation.
“Hmm?” Han Li’s expression turned cold.
“Not… acceptable.” Mu Wanyan lowered her head, her tone weakened, feeling utterly powerless in her heart.
Han Li spoke with Mu Wanyan for a while longer before taking the final step.
Mu Wanyan sighed silently to herself but eventually accepted the outcome.
The next day,
The old patriarch Han stood on the Chong Xiao Pavilion feeling refreshed and happy, watching Mu Wanyan hurry away. He cracked a smile.
You’re still too green to battle with the old patriarch Han.
As expected, Mu Wanyan ultimately succumbed to him.
With this thought, Han Li’s mood improved greatly. Something he had been longing for was finally about to be fulfilled.
A message quickly spread throughout the Capital City of the Daqian Empire, the Master of the Li Manor was to take another concubine, and that concubine was Mentor’s daughter, Mu Wanyan.
This caused some forces with ill intentions to immediately cease their scheming, daring not to harbor any malevolent thoughts towards the widows of Mentor’s Manor any longer. Moreover, on the day the Master of the Li Manor held the wedding ceremony, they sent extremely precious congratulatory gifts.
Han Li, of course, knew their intentions, accepted them all without charging any crime—as these people had merely made an attempt and had inadvertently provided him with an assist.
It was unseemly for him to act in certain matters personally, and now, due to a twist of fate, it had worked out. This made the old patriarch Han laugh heartily with delight.
The widows of Mentor’s Manor and others breathed a sigh of relief. They did not know what Mu Wanyan had paid, but they knew they were safe now.
Only Yu Wanying let out a sorrowful sigh, knowing her daughter had ultimately been unable to avoid the worst outcome. Although she had anticipated this possibility, Yu Wanying still found it hard to accept when it actually happened. How sorry she was to her husband resting below.
But with things having come this far, and her daughter having already made the sacrifice, there was no going back, even if she couldn’t accept it.
The concubine welcoming ceremony ended quickly, and the old patriarch Han once again enjoyed the pleasure of tilling fertile ground, tirelessly.
What Han Li had not anticipated was that this act of taking another concubine would have an even broader impact.
Those forces within the Capital City, still observing, sighed when they learned that the Master of the Li Manor had once again taken in a concubine and had now taken in the daughter of the State Preceptor. They made a certain decision.
To continue persuading the favored daughters of their own forces to marry into the Li Manor to become wives or concubines of the Master of the Li Manor.
From the affair with Mentor’s Manor, they also observed something else—that the influence of the True Martial Realm’s Emperor Wu was incredibly vast.
The widows of Mentor’s Manor initially faced a grave crisis, but once the daughter of the State Preceptor married into the Li Manor and became a minor concubine, their fates were reversed.
Without uttering a word, without doing anything, the Master of the Li Manor simply took another concubine as usual, forcing other forces to back down and even offer reparations.
In the future, the Daqian Empire would surely be ruled by the Master of the Li Manor. The Master of the Li Manor would be the stabilizing force of the Qian Dynasty for the next four hundred years, the greatest pillar of support.
If they could cling to the coattails of the Li Manor, as long as the Daqian Empire did not fall, their power would never be destroyed. Perhaps they could even advance further.
The Hollow Void Stage Forces hoped to become Myriad Phenomena Realm Forces, and the Myriad Phenomena Realm Forces hoped to have more Great Grandmasters in the realm or even advance to the True Martial Realm Forces. They couldn’t achieve this on their own, but if the Master of the Li Manor helped, then it was very likely.
The Master of the Li Manor could assist. Guidance from a powerful Emperor Wu of the True Martial Realm was extremely useful, and the Master of the Li Manor also controlled many Heaven Rank Cultivation Techniques.
To get help from the Master of the Li Manor, they must first cling to his powerful support. The easiest way was to have the favored daughters of their own forces marry into the Li Manor.
The various forces calculated it all and realized becoming a lesser concubine was not particularly beneficial—they had to become the Master of the Li Manor’s wife. Only then would they have the ear of the Master of the Li Manor.
The Master of the Li Manor had over thirty lesser concubines. Even if they sent more, it would scarcely matter. The Master had no wife, and that was the opening they could exploit.
But how could they ensure that the beautiful female cultivators their forces provided would become the Master of the Li Manor’s wife?
The various forces analyzed and concluded that their own favored daughters would have to take the initiative, or why would they be any different from the dozens of minor concubines? Why would they become a wife?
Almost every force in the Myriad Phenomena Realm had favored daughters with Fourth Grade talents, stunningly beautiful and with an otherworldly demeanor, each with varying cultivation. Even some Hollow Void Stage Forces had such favored daughters.
