I Am the Fated Villain Chapter 1167

Chapter 1167

Chapter 1167: The whole world is the king’s land, the matter of accepting concubines

Besides the Immortal Sealing List, Yin Mei put forth many suggestions that Gu Changge found extremely valuable.

For instance, in the newly established Divine Kingdom, with heavens and earth and various sects holding official positions, many ethnic groups would take up semi-official roles, enjoying rights and duties.

She also noticed Gu Changge’s intention to support ordinary cultivators, attempting to balance the interests of different sects and immortal forces. This included encouraging ancient forces to contribute their town-keeping techniques, rewarding them with numerous benefits from the Divine Kingdom to maintain equilibrium and serve as a means of suppression.

Yin Mei delved deeply into the art of imperial rule, a skill she needed to gain expertise in. Additionally, Ji Qingxuan harbored ambitious aspirations, suggesting various methods to suppress immortal forces from different traditions.

Through mutual discussions and borrowing from each other’s ideas, they devised quite a few ingenious solutions.

Indeed, with the establishment of the Divine Kingdom, talent was needed in various aspects. Gu Changge had antic.i.p.ated this, having planned to gather talented individuals when he had previously distributed golden finger seeds of opportunity to the heavens and ten thousand domains.

However, the talent he sought was among the sons of destiny, each possessing unique fates and fortunes, blessed by heaven.

These sons of destiny exhibited various abilities and were profoundly devoted to Gu Changge, having received his guidance in their younger days, referring to themselves as divine envoys and disciples.

Now that you are both the Divine Lord and the Son of Heaven, you should naturally rule the Divine Kingdom with heavens and earth as your territory. Under the heavens, there should be no land that is not under your rule…

Yin Mei’s delicate hand gently ma.s.saged Gu Changge’s brow as she spoke soothingly.

She, being ambitious herself, though Gu Changge hadn’t yet chosen a queen, let alone a consort, many ministers in the divine land believed in her capabilities. They saw her as someone who could manage everything efficiently.

While Yue Mingkong was officially Gu Changge’s wife, her influence and authority in the Divine Kingdom were less imposing than Yin Mei’s.

In fact, some even thought that if Gu Changge chose a queen in the future, Yin Mei might be more suitable than Yue Mingkong. Gu Changge was well aware of these discussions, understanding that such speculations were unavoidable after establis.h.i.+ng the Divine Kingdom.

Yin Mei and Yue Mingkong had brought up these concerns multiple times, urging him to address these matters promptly to prevent widespread discussions among the ministers of Divine Kingdom. Many things had to be considered in the broader context, and decisions couldn’t be made as casually as before.

Furthermore, Yin Mei was worried that Yue Mingkong might get anxious and speculated. Hence, she questioned Gu Changge several times to gauge his intentions. While she had ambitions for power, she wouldn’t act recklessly or overstep boundaries.

I’ve already made arrangements for these matters. What remains before me now is the matter of the Immortal Sealing List that I mentioned earlier.

In the face of absolute strength, these rules can be changed or established at will. Just like now, founding a Divine Kingdom and ruling over heavens and earth, isn’t it just a casual game for me?

Gu Changge murmured with a faint smile as he took the tea she handed over, gently blowing on it.

He didn’t view the foundation of the Divine Kingdom as something grand but rather as a means to absorb the power of belief. Regardless of how glorious the Divine Kingdom was now, it relied solely on him. If he were to suddenly disappear, the Divine Kingdom would collapse overnight, and Gu Changge wasn’t surprised by that.

Young master, do you know how infuriating these words can be?

Yin Mei blinked her beautiful eyes, feeling that Gu Changge was too casual and continued.

This is the Immortal Divine Kingdom, the only immortal-level force born in the upper realms over countless years. It can be recorded in ancient history as eternal and immortal.

I feel that even if drastic changes occur in the future, the Divine Kingdom will stand immortal, enduring in the river of epochs…

Her greatest ambition was to help Gu Changge establish an immortal kingdom.

Infuriating, you say?

Gu Changge chuckled, pulling her into his embrace. His gaze seemed to penetrate the vast and boundless myriad realms from the pinnacle of the Divine Kingdom, overlooking everything.

Yin Mei gazed at him with admiration and affection. However, she remembered something and felt a bit troubled.

Young master, regarding the matter of choosing a queen and taking consorts, many ministers have been advising lately to bring in saintly daughters or heavenly maidens from various families.

“Moreover, even some female cultivators from the past, with unparalleled cultivation and extraordinary beauty, had expressed their desire to enter the palace. Among them is the Golden Sun G.o.ddess of the Supreme G.o.d Clan…”

The Golden Sun G.o.ddess was a genuinely profound existence, having a long history and a distant connection with Gu Changge. She had been renowned in ancient times, attracting countless admirers, later suppressing the era, breaking through realms, and possessing unfathomable cultivation.

Such matters were not uncommon in ordinary countries, let alone in a Divine Kingdom meant to rule over heavens and earth.

Many sects and forces hoped to gain a foothold in the vast Divine Kingdom through such means because it was the current trend.

The matter of the Immortal Sealing List had long spread throughout the heavens and earth. Discussions and shock reverberated in every universe, even causing significant changes in the ancient forbidden ears that had remained dormant for ages.

The vast and boundless territories of myriad realms were impossible to fully explore for even those with extraordinary cultivation.

Establis.h.i.+ng the Divine Kingdom offered hope to all living beings and presented a terrifying momentum of ruling over the heavens and earth to various forces and sects.

As the Lord of the Divine Kingdom, Gu Changge’s actions intimidated every corner of the world— who wouldn’t fear or respect him?

For the upper realms, this would be a groundbreaking and ears-dividing change. Gu Changge heard these words without a change in expression; he had antic.i.p.ated this.

Yue Mingkong had mentioned it before—how could a Lord of the Divine Kingdom have only one queen?

Yue Mingkong, the Empress of the Peerless Immortal Dynasty for many years, naturally knew what Gu Changge would face. She didn’t mind and felt that Gu Changge needed to consider the matter carefully and settle the numerous women around him.

While she used to be a bit domineering and jealous in the past, their perspectives and thoughts had changed since their marriage. In Gu Changge’s eyes, she now exuded an aura befitting the t.i.tle of a virtuous mother of the kingdom, capable of calming everything.

“As for that Golden Sun G.o.ddess, how many eras had she lived through? Even though she had such thoughts, I find it quite surprising,” Gu Changge said, shaking his head. If it were someone like Jiang Luoshen, a Supreme G.o.d Clan deity who wanted to become his consort, he would find it normal. However, the unexpected interest from the Golden Sun G.o.ddess surprised him.

After the Kun Ji Catastrophe, the number of background figures had sharply declined, especially female ones.

Yin Mei sighed, “This senior Golden Sun G.o.ddess from the Supreme G.o.d Clan has actively advised three times, expressing her desire to enter the Divine Kingdom and accompany the young master…”

Gu Changge chuckled, “She’s lived for so long; she doesn’t have eyelashes anymore. It’s not solely because of admiration. I suspect she’s concerned about hidden pitfalls with the Immortal Sealing List but doesn’t want to miss the opportunity to become an immortal. So, she came up with this plan.”

He didn’t believe that his charm had reached a level where a profound figure willingly entered the palace to serve him. It was merely a decision made for the sake of achieving immortality.

Of course, Gu Changge showed little emotional change. At his level, harboring casual emotions such as joy, anger, sorrow, or happiness was challenging.

“Young master, didn’t say that. For the beings in the upper realms, your achievements in overcoming challenges, clearing troubles, and establis.h.i.+ng the only immortal Divine Kingdom as heavens and earth are truly magnificent. These were accomplishments that countless cultivators wouldn’t dare to dream of.”

“Moreover, young master, you are the true immortal of this era. In terms of appearance, few men in the world can compare, and in terms of talent and natural gifts, there’s no one to rival you. Such a rare figure in myths and legends—how can any woman in the world not be captivated by you?”

“The Golden Sun G.o.ddess, in the first 400 generations, was once a G.o.ddess who outshone the world in her era, with countless admirers. It’s normal for her to have admiration for you,” Yin Mei expressed with a hint of understanding.

However, upon hearing Gu Changge’s words, Yin Mei’s small face became serious. On her enchantingly beautiful face, which seemed divinely crafted, a solemn expression emerged as she explained. This was the image of Gu Changge in her mind, without a hint of insincerity.

Gu Changge chuckled and couldn’t resist teasing her by flicking her nose. “Since when did you start flattery, too?”

Looking at Yin Mei before him, his thoughts wandered a bit. Initially, he had only planted a demonic seed in her, intending for her to work for him. The plan was to discard her like a disposable p.a.w.n when her usefulness was nearly depleted.

However, who would have thought she would become one of the closest people around him.

Yin Mei had been more helpful than many others around him, even exceeding Yue Mingkong’s efforts in some matters. It was indeed an unpredictable turn of events.

“I’m not making it up. If you don’t believe me, go and inquire yourself. Which Heavenly Maiden wouldn’t speak highly of you?” Yin Mei’s small face wore a serious expression.

Gu Changge smiled and didn’t say much. Instead, he took out a booklet and placed it before her.

This is from Mingkong. You can take a look.

Curious, Yin Mei took the booklet and focused on its contents. The main topic was about the selection of queens and consorts. It outlined the division of powers in the harem, including the Empress, divine consorts, and heavenly concubines—three tiers of concubines, with one Empress and three to four divine concubines, and the number of heavenly concubines could be more.

As for the other concubines, it was much simpler and more casual, with designations like the main concubines and side concubines.

Was this plan drafted by the Empress?

Yin Mei surprisingly found her position among the divine consort, a delighted expression on her face. Undoubtedly, the t.i.tle of Empress belonged to Yue Mingkong, and the other parts were planned to be discussed with her later.
