Di Fuyi offered his help to make her the next Monster King, but in return, she had to become his concubine .

Tu Shanying was a little reluctant at first . She confessed her love to him again and asked if she could be his legal wife instead . Together, they could both rule the Monster Kingdom together .

To which, Di Fuyi replied very frankly, “The Monster Kingdom is not all that I am interested in . This is my only offer . If you agree to it, I will help you with all that I can, or get someone else to help you achieve your goal . ”

“Are you going to marry another woman?” Tu Shanying was quite disheartened .

“Of course . I will only have one wife . The rest will be my concubines . ”

Tu Shanying thought about the offer for quite some time before agreeing to him . At a loss for words, Gu Xijiu stared at the screen blankly .

Suddenly, the whole setting displayed on the mirror was changed to the Celestial Kingdom . The Emperor Immortal could be seen drinking with Di Fuyi . However, the content of their conversation remained quite the same .

Di Fuyi was asking the Emperor Immortal if he could have the princess as his concubine . In return, he would be at the Emperor Immortal's service to rebuild the Celestial Kingdom .

The Emperor Immortal accepted the offer immediately and even went into details to discuss their collaboration .

“Little Jiu, how do you feel about it?” Meng Wuya looked at her fixedly for an answer .

She did not know that she was obliged to review the show . Nevertheless, she was also curious, “Why must he use these concubines to secure his success?” She finally revealed her concern .

Meng Wuya answered with a hint of sarcasm, “It is a prevalent tactic used by most rulers to increase their influence . Royal marriages are not a union of love, but a game of power . The royal officials will only swear their oath of loyalty to the king when their daughters become part of the royal family . The king has to keep the marriages going to spread his power evenly, apart from extending the royal bloodline . Di Fuyi intends to rule the six worlds but has never ruled a kingdom before . However, his status was even n.o.bler than royalty everywhere else . Once the fragmented world is united, all rulers will bow before him as submission of their loyalty . His marriage with the princesses will serve as a promise in return that he will always have their backs . ”

Gu Xijiu could not agree more . Most emperors from the mundane world had been doing the same for years . “I see,” she answered, seemingly with a clear understanding of the situation now .

Meng Wuya was at a loss for words . Her calm response certainly came as a surprise to him . He actually thought she would be devastated or even overwhelmed with a sense of outrage . Neither happened . She only seemed enlightened .

“Aren't you jealous?” Meng Wuya studied her expression intently .

Frankly, she did not even know what jealousy felt like . If anything, she just felt slightly uncomfortable . Therefore, she dismissed his concern right away . “No . ”

Meng Wuya got the hint . “It seems that you do not really love him . ”

Indeed, there was no love . It was just a show, one which was about to be discontinued . In fact, she was already looking for someone else to take the role . Quietly, she had studied Meng Wuya while listing down his strengths . He was capable, good-looking, and very charming . He had fulfilled all the qualities to be her next candidate, except for his lack of sincerity . His heart was obviously not in the right place, to begin with .

Having him around would possibly cause her more problems . Nevertheless, she still stuck around as she had not found out what he wanted .

“It does not matter if I love him or not . As you said, men are all the same . It is a fact that I cannot change,” she answered while keeping her eyes away .

“No, you have a choice!” Meng Wuya exclaimed excitedly .

“Hmm?”

“Not all men like the custom of having more than one wife . ”
