Miao Le stepped forward, warmly taking Bing Ling'er's hand with a smile. "It seems something happened in the final inheritance battle of North Cold Immortal City that I don't know about."
"Still, Junior Sister Bing Ling'er finally got her wish and became my husband's concubine."
Concubine!
Bing Ling'er's beautiful eyes went blank, and the hand Miao Le held stiffened slightly.
At first, she truly had only wanted to stay by Li Qingyuan's side. Even becoming a concubine would have made her content.
But Senior Brother Qingyuan had told her that she was not some lowly concubine, not an item to be traded. She could call him "Husband."
Senior Brother Li Qingyuan had also said that he treated all his women equally.

"So, all of you are the same in my eyes."

In the Cultivation World, a concubine's soul blood and Primordial Spirit restrictions were either in the male master's hands or the mistress's hands.
Miao Le seemed to realize something. "Oh, so Sister Ling'er isn't a concubine."
"My fault, my fault. Sister Ling'er, please don't blame me," Miao Le said. "After all, when you and I first met at the Azure Profound Immortal Sect, sister Ling'er declared that you were willing to become a concubine by my husband's side."
"As long as you could remain at his side, you would willingly do anything."
