Taking Ya Fei as a Concubine, Rewarding the Tai Shang Induction Technique

"Coming for me? What do you mean by that, Young Master Juan?"

Ya Fei was slightly stunned upon hearing this, a flicker of confusion crossing her beautiful eyes. Coming for her?

Gu Shenge gazed at the mature, alluring beauty in the black-silk cheongsam, her charm overflowing. He did not beat around the bush; what he wanted was simple: to take Ya Fei as a concubine and thereby obtain the system rewards.

When dealing with different women, the approach must naturally vary.

For a woman like Ya Fei, who wished to break free from the shackles of her family, one had to be direct—give her what she wanted, and in doing so, claim her.

Gu Shenge: "Miss Ya Fei, I understand you well. Although you are a member of the Mite'er Family, you are unwilling to be bound by them or manipulated at their whim. How about we make a deal? I will help you take control of the Mite'er Family and make you its head. In return, you only need to serve me, become my concubine, and join the Nine Luminaries Heavenly Palace. How does that sound?"

The so-called Nine Luminaries Heavenly Palace was the faction Gu Shenge intended to build.

After hearing Gu Shenge's words, a look of astonishment appeared on Ya Fei's alluring face, and she began to scrutinize the man before her.

Someone had just told her that if she became his concubine, he would help her take control of her own family.

Honestly, in Ya Fei's eyes, this was nothing but an insult—a display of empty, arrogant boasting.

One had to know that the Mite'er Family was one of the three great families of the Jia Ma Empire, possessing a lofty status. The clan even had Dou King experts, vast connections, and intricate ties with the Jia Ma Imperial Family. Even a Dou Emperor might not dare to easily strike against the Mite'er Family.

However, Ya Fei recalled what Xiao Yan had said earlier: that the man before her was not only a Dou Emperor but also a sixth-tier alchemist.

Yet, she still found it hard to believe; after all, Gu Shenge looked far too young, even younger than she was.

Ya Fei's expression shifted, and she put on a smile, speaking with a laugh: "Young Master, you jest. I am but a woman of humble worth; it is my honor to be favored by you. However, my Mite'er Family is not some small clan in Wutan City. If you truly can help me take control of the Mite'er Family, what harm is there in becoming your concubine?"

She did not refuse him outright, as she did not believe he could actually help her, but the necessary social pleasantries were indispensable.

How could Gu Shenge not understand the meaning behind her words? He naturally had ways to help her control the Mite'er Family, and he wouldn't even need to step in himself.

"In that case, the deal is struck. Miss Ya Fei will become my concubine and join the Nine Luminaries Heavenly Palace, and I will help Miss Ya Fei take control of the Mite'er Family."

He repeated his previous words, which made Ya Fei somewhat impatient. Her composure slipped slightly, and she couldn't help but complain inwardly: It seems this guy is dead set on taking me as his concubine!

Suppressing her inner irritation, Ya Fei tried her best to maintain her smile and continued to ask Gu Shenge: "Naturally. But I am curious, why would you want to take me as your concubine?"

"Because of the destiny you carry."

Gu Shenge pulled a reason out of thin air, which only made Ya Fei more confused. The destiny she carried? Because of something so ethereal and vague? She didn't believe it.

Heh~ A man's mouth is a deceiver's tool!

Ya Fei smiled sweetly and spoke again: "It is my fortune to be noticed by you, Young Master. I just wonder, how exactly do you intend to help me take control of the Mite'er Family?"

As Ya Fei agreed, the system's notification sound rang in Gu Shenge's mind.

[Ding~ Detected that Mite'er Ya Fei is willing to marry the host as a concubine. Does the host wish to accept her?]

Gu Shenge: "Since Miss Ya Fei is willing to be my concubine, I naturally have my own methods to help you take control of the Mite'er Family."

[Ding~ Marriage Contract initiation...]

A mysterious and unfathomable ripple emanated from Gu Shenge's body, enveloping the beauty in the black-silk cheongsam before him.

[Ding~ Contract complete. Congratulations to the host for acquiring a noble concubine. Reward: Tai Shang Induction Technique, 50,000 Origin Points, three Mysterious-tier draws.]

[Ding~ Betrothal gifts issued: Seventh-tier Dou Di Bloodline, Heaven-tier low-grade cultivation technique: Wind Dwelling Cloud Spirit Technique, one Dou King Inheritance Card.]

Ya Fei felt the Marriage Contract bind her to Gu Shenge, and her pretty face changed drastically. She could no longer maintain her professional smile. Her delicate body trembled, her chest heaving slightly, and she looked at Gu Shenge with eyes full of disbelief. Her voice was sharp and trembling as she questioned him.

"You, what did you do to me?!"

"Miss Ya Fei need not worry; it is just a small insurance policy. Now that the contract is formed, you are my concubine from this day forward. I will naturally not treat you poorly. I will help you take control of the Mite'er Family, and you only need to serve me alone."

Gu Shenge told her to calm down and not to panic, as the three betrothal gifts from the system appeared in his hands.

But how could Ya Fei be calm? She had inexplicably signed a so-called Marriage Contract with the man before her, binding her life to his. How could her heart be at peace?

She glared at Gu Shenge, her mature and alluring face full of shame and anger. She had never been this uncomposed in her life.

"You schemed against me like this! Even if I die, I will not let you have your way!"

Looking at the furious Ya Fei, Gu Shenge maintained his smile and pointed to the betrothal gifts, saying: "Miss Ya Fei, you speak too harshly. I have no ulterior motives toward you. Besides, I said this was a deal, and since it is a deal, there must be some guarantees, right? I won't take advantage of you for free. Here, these are your betrothal gifts."

"You!" Hearing the words "take advantage" and "betrothal gifts," Ya Fei was incensed, grinding her teeth so hard it felt as if they might shatter.

But the next second, a terrifying and powerful pressure from a Dou Emperor erupted, instantly forcing the beauty in the black-silk cheongsam to her knees on the floor, looking utterly wretched.

A look of terror appeared on Ya Fei's alluring face. She felt as if a massive mountain had collapsed onto her back, heavy and suffocating. Breathing became extremely difficult, her mature body shivering, and her black-silk-clad legs trembling. Only then did she realize that the man was indeed a Dou Emperor. What right did she have to lose her temper in front of him? Even if he really wanted to do something to her, she had no power to resist.

Gu Shenge looked at the alluring beauty crawling at his feet. He bent down, reached out, and pinched her fair, delicate chin, lifting her head up. Looking at her terrified, charming face, his voice grew cold.

"Miss Ya Fei, please do not be ungrateful. If you make me angry, the consequences will be very unpleasant. So, please be obedient. I will say this one last time: I will help you become the head of the Mite'er Family, and you will serve me. Is that understood?"

"Yes, yes..."

Faced with Gu Shenge's threat, Ya Fei nodded with difficulty. At this moment, her fear of the man before her was magnified infinitely. She dared not say a word of refusal, gradually submitting to him.

Hearing this, Gu Shenge nodded in satisfaction. He released her chin and instead patted her head, not forgetting to praise her.

"Good girl. I look forward to your performance, Miss Ya Fei. Do not disappoint me, or the punishment will be very severe."
