I, the Villain, Become Invincible the More Descendants I Have

Chapter 16 Xiao Ya’s SubmissionImperial Concubine Xiao Ya had been staying in the side courtyard for three days.

During these three days, Emperor Cao Xukun did not pressure her, nor did he restrict her freedom; he simply sent people to serve her with good food and drink.

If she wanted to stroll around, she could; if she wanted to chat with Su Wanqing, she could. Apart from not being able to leave the Cao family estate, it was no different from being in her own home.

That afternoon, as Imperial Concubine Xiao Ya was sitting in the courtyard sunbathing, she saw Emperor Cao Xukun practicing punches shirtless.

Black Chaos Spiritual Power circulated around his body. With one punch, the air emitted a sonic boom, and the millstone in the corner of the courtyard was shattered into dust by the force of his fist.

Imperial Concubine Xiao Ya stared, her eyes wide.

She was at the early Golden Core Stage, so she could naturally discern the power of that punch.

Let alone someone at the Foundation Establishment Mid-stage, even an ordinary early Golden Core Stage cultivator might not be able to land such a domineering punch.

”How is it? Sister, is my strength okay?” Emperor Cao Xukun wiped away his sweat, walked over, picked up a water flask, and took a drink.

”It’s alright.” Imperial Concubine Xiao Ya insisted stubbornly, though inwardly she had to admit that Emperor Cao Xukun’s talent was indeed far superior to Young Master Xiao Chen’s.

Three months ago, he was still a crippled good-for-nothing, and now he could actually crush her, a Golden Core Stage cultivator. This cultivation speed was simply absurd.

”’Alright’ is the right answer.” Emperor Cao Xukun sat opposite her and said with a smile, ”Sister, let me tell you something from the bottom of my heart. Following Young Master Xiao Chen, the best you could hope for in this life is to become an elder of the Qingyun Sect. But following me, in the future, the entire Qingyun Sect will be yours. Forget about being an elder; you could even be the Sect Master.”

”You’re just bragging.” Imperial Concubine Xiao Ya rolled her eyes. ”The Qingyun Sect is a major sect in the Central Plains with a Sect Master at the Nascent Soul Stage presiding over it. Do you think it’s run by your family?”

”It isn’t now, but it will be later.” Emperor Cao Xukun replied with a serious expression. ”That brat, Young Master Xiao Chen, looks like a Son of Destiny, but in reality, he’s just a hopeless weakling. Whenever he encounters a little trouble, he cries and runs to his sister. Other than shouting ’My fate is determined by me, not by the heavens,’ he can’t do anything.”

”Take this time, for example. You stood up for him and got captured by me. And he? He’s hiding in the Qingyun Sect, not even daring to show his face. He even told the sect disciples that you were captured because you were being reckless and that it had nothing to do with him. He’s truly a sister-betraying expert.”

”You’re lying! Young Master Xiao Chen is not that kind of person!” Imperial Concubine Xiao Ya stood up abruptly, her face flushed red.

”I’m lying?” Emperor Cao Xukun took out a communication jade talisman and tossed it to her. ”This is a message I intercepted between Young Master Xiao Chen and his junior brother. Listen to it yourself.”

Imperial Concubine Xiao Ya, half-doubting, crushed the jade talisman. Young Master Xiao Chen’s voice immediately came from it: ”Stop worrying about my sister. She courted death by provoking Emperor Cao Xukun; it has nothing to do with me. Once I break through to the Golden Core Mid-stage, I’ll go find Emperor Cao Xukun to take revenge. By the way, don’t tell the Sect Master that my sister has been captured, or he’ll scold me for causing trouble again.”

The voice was clear, every word distinct.

Imperial Concubine Xiao Ya’s face turned deathly pale instantly, and the fragments of the jade talisman in her hand fell to the ground. She couldn’t believe that the younger brother she had risked her life to protect would actually say such things.

”See?” Emperor Cao Xukun sighed. ”You treat him like a precious younger brother, but he treats you like a shield. You would give your life for him, yet he doesn’t even dare to save you.”

”What kind of future can you have following someone like that? His destiny is built upon stepping on others’ bones, including yours, his own sister.”

Imperial Concubine Xiao Ya fell silent, her shoulders trembling slightly. Over these past few days, she had actually had a vague premonition, but she hadn’t wanted to admit it. Now that the truth was laid out before her, her last shred of illusion was shattered.

Emperor Cao Xukun watched her, reached out, and gently patted her shoulder. ”Sister, don’t be sad. If he doesn’t cherish you, I will. From now on, I will protect you, and no one will be able to bully you.”

”Although I, Emperor Cao Xukun, am called a villain by others, I always keep my word when it comes to my own people. If you follow me, I promise that whatever you want in the future, I will give you. The glory and status that Young Master Xiao Chen cannot give you, I can.”

Imperial Concubine Xiao Ya looked up into Emperor Cao Xukun’s eyes. His gaze was sincere and firm, without a trace of falsehood.

After spending these days together, she also discovered that although Emperor Cao Xukun had a sharp tongue and acted ruthlessly, he was genuinely good to his own people. She had seen with her own eyes how he pampered Su Wanqing and Lin Yueer.

Thinking back on Young Master Xiao Chen’s actions, the contrast was immediately clear.

”I... I...” Imperial Concubine Xiao Ya bit her lip, her eyes reddening as she struggled internally. On one side was her blood-related brother, and on the other was the man who could give her a future.

Emperor Cao Xukun did not pressure her, just watched her quietly.

After a long while, Imperial Concubine Xiao Ya finally took a deep breath, wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, looked up at Emperor Cao Xukun, and said with an incomparably firm gaze, ”Alright, I will follow you.”

”From now on, I, Imperial Concubine Xiao Ya, am yours. If you ever dare to bully me, even if I have to risk my life, I won’t let you off.”

Emperor Cao Xukun was overjoyed and pulled her into his embrace. ”Rest assured, I don’t have enough time to cherish you, so how could I ever bully you?”

[Ding! Congratulations to the Host! Successfully captured the purple-luck female, Imperial Concubine Xiao Ya!]

[Because she is the sister of the Son of Destiny, rewards × 1.5!]

[Obtained rewards: 15,000 System Points, random divine ability ”Space Teleportation” × 1, and obtained half of the Qingyun Sect’s luck!]

[Host’s current points: 26,000, Villain Value: 300]

A force of space instantly surged into Emperor Cao Xukun’s mind. With a thought, his figure instantly vanished from the spot and appeared at the other end of the courtyard the next second.

”Space Teleportation! It really is useful!” Emperor Cao Xukun said excitedly. With this divine ability, he could run away if he couldn’t win a fight in the future, and sneak attacks would be much more convenient.

He could also clearly feel a massive amount of luck surging from the direction of the Qingyun Sect, merging into his own black luck. His cultivation speed had increased significantly once again.

Imperial Concubine Xiao Ya was startled by his sudden disappearance and reappearance. She patted her chest and said, ”You scared me to death! What divine ability is this?”

”It’s Space Teleportation, which I just learned. I’ll use it to elope with you in the future.” Emperor Cao Xukun said with a smile as he picked her up and walked into the room.

A night of intimacy.

The next morning, just as Emperor Cao Xukun woke up, the system notification sound rang out:

[Ding! Detected that the purple-luck female, Imperial Concubine Xiao Ya, has successfully conceived!]

[Estimated delivery date: Ten months later]

[Estimated offspring luck: Purple!]

Emperor Cao Xukun was overjoyed. Another child! And with purple luck!

He looked down at the sleeping Imperial Concubine Xiao Ya in his arms and gently kissed her forehead.

Now he already had three women, and all three children were in their wombs. Once these three children were born, his cultivation would definitely skyrocket significantly.

By then, let alone one Young Master Xiao Chen, even if the Qingyun Sect Master came, he would have nothing to fear.

Imperial Concubine Xiao Ya was kissed awake. She rubbed her eyes and asked groggily, ”What’s wrong?”

”Nothing.” Emperor Cao Xukun said with a smile, ”I have some good news for you: you’re pregnant.”

”Ah?” Imperial Concubine Xiao Ya instantly became fully awake. She sat up abruptly and instinctively touched her lower abdomen. ”Is it true?”

”Of course it’s true.” Emperor Cao Xukun nodded. ”From now on, you are a great contributor to our family. Just focus on resting and nourishing the baby. You don’t need to do anything; I will take care of you.”

Looking at Emperor Cao Xukun’s gentle expression, Imperial Concubine Xiao Ya felt sweet inside. She leaned into his embrace and said softly, ”Mm.”

Just then, Lin Yueer ran in and said excitedly, ”Young Master Cao! Sister Su Wanqing! Sister Imperial Concubine Xiao Ya! The Great Elder and a few other elders are causing a scene in the Council Hall, saying they want to kick you out of the Cao family!”
