Chapter 166 The Fish Takes the Hook



They said that they don’t have to worry about food and clothing here, and they don’t have to serve their husbands, so they should be more open-minded.

Moreover, the boy is a cultivator at the Young Yuan Realm. If one of them is lucky enough to conceive a child, the child may become a cultivator in the future.

If you marry an ordinary person, the children you give birth to will most likely also be ordinary people, and they will live an ordinary and comfortable life.

Thinking about it this way, marrying a young man is not bad...

It is estimated that it won’t be long before the eldest daughter will be completely brainwashed by the other concubines and become obedient.

The young man was easily bored with the old and loved the new, and he didn't care about the life or death of the eldest daughter at all. The prey he had got was not worth his time and effort.

He now has a new target, Jiang Qingcheng.

Although Jiang Qingcheng was a little scheming and deliberately sprained her ankle in front of him, she had a pure and moving face and a pair of charming eyes.

In addition, Jiang Qingcheng's sudden abandonment of him further aroused his competitive spirit.

"Qingcheng, I really like you. I will definitely marry you. You have to believe me!"

The boy chased after her and promised solemnly.

Jiang Qingcheng couldn't really leave because the young man's status was not low. He was the legitimate son of the Duke's family.

There are two legitimate young masters in the Duke's Mansion.

The eldest young master is an ordinary person, and the younger young master is a cultivator.

The Duke favored his youngest son and was unwilling to pass the title to his eldest son.

But his wife thought that her youngest son was a spiritual master, and he would not have to worry about food and clothing in the future, and he would be able to live a good life even without a title.

The eldest son was different. If he couldn't inherit the Duke's throne, he would have to move out of the mansion sooner or later. The contact between his descendants and the Duke's Mansion would become less and less, until there would be no contact at all...

Therefore, the Duke's wife prefers to let the eldest son inherit the title, and the younger son will be responsible for protecting the Duke's Mansion. Only if the two brothers work together can they live a better life.

But the Duke didn't think so.

First of all, he himself is a practitioner.

The Duke's lifespan is at least three hundred years, but his eldest son is an ordinary person who can only live for a hundred years at most. In other words, in the future, the Duke will not die yet, but his eldest son will die, and will not live to inherit the title.

According to the rules, if the heir died, the Duke could only pass the throne to his eldest son's child... But what if that child was also an ordinary person, lived to be a hundred years old, and was outlived by the Duke? Would he continue to appoint the next generation as the new heir?

That’s too troublesome!

However, the Duke had to respect his wife's opinion and could not easily choose an heir, so this matter was delayed.

Jiang Qingcheng has already found out all the details about the Duke's Mansion. She wants to marry the younger master and live peacefully for a few years. When everyone lets down their guard, she will find an opportunity to kill the older master.

Then find a way to kill the Duke as well.

By then, the position of Duke will definitely fall into the hands of her husband.

And she will also become the noble wife of the Duke!

She doesn't care how many concubines her husband has, nor does she care whether her husband loves her or not. As long as she is given the status and respect she deserves, it is enough.

"Qingcheng, please say something. Don't ignore me. We are clearly in love with each other, but you want to abandon me... How can you bear it?"

Jiang Qingcheng paused and said, "What do you mean by mutual affection? You have so many concubines, who knows who you love the most?"

"Of course, the person I love most is you. Those concubines were all given to me by my eldest brother. He was jealous of me being a cultivator and wanted to use beautiful women to delay my progress. He had ulterior motives..." The young man seemed to have suffered a great injustice and continued, "My concubines are all just ordinary people. They are just vases placed in my backyard. You are different from them."

Although the boy is fickle, he also knows his limits. He can "hunt" ordinary girls at will, but he basically will not take the initiative to "hunt" spiritual masters. After all, there are relatively few spiritual masters, and they are rare and valuable. Female spiritual masters are not as easy to bully as ordinary girls.

However, Jiang Qingcheng came to him on her own initiative, which was quite fresh. Even if she became the young man's concubine, he would definitely treat her specially. If they got tired of each other in the future, he would not lock her up at home, but let her out of the house, or listen to her own wishes, see what she wanted to do, and then give her a severance pay so that both parties could part ways amicably.

As for getting married...

The young man's ideal wife would preferably have a cultivation level similar to his and be beautiful. He didn't want an ugly one. In his opinion, Jiang Qingcheng's cultivation level was a bit low, and she wasn't qualified to be his wife.

"You really don't like your concubines?"

"If you don't like them, I can send them all away if you don't believe me." said the boy.

"No need," Jiang Qingcheng's expression softened a little. She lowered her eyes and said, "I don't want to be known as jealous before I even get married... Besides, we may not end up together. Even if your family agrees, my family..."

The young man thought to himself, I am the young master of the Duke's Mansion, and my cultivation level is still at the Young Yuan Realm. I have always been the one to choose a wife, so why is it that someone else is choosing me today?

He wondered, "Qingcheng, what kind of man does your family want you to marry?"

Could it be that even the young master of the Duke's Mansion is not worthy of you?

Jiang Qingcheng shook her head. "I don't know either. My parents are both dead, so I'm an orphan..."

The young man's heart moved. An orphan girl? That would be easy. Even if he killed her in the future, no one would hold her accountable...

Jiang Qingcheng added: "But I have a cousin and I live with them now."

The bracelet on Jiang Qingcheng's wrist is the only spiritual weapon of the Jiang family, and it is broken. Although the bracelet has no flaws on the outside, the spiritual power structure inside is actually very weak. The function of the bracelet is to support the spiritual power defense barrier and resist attacks. In the current state of the bracelet, it will be scrapped after blocking another attack. Jiang Qingcheng has been reluctant to take out the bracelet and has kept it at the bottom of the jewelry box. Today, she took it out specifically to confuse the young man.
