Lianshan Xin realized he had still underestimated Top-Ranked Big Brother.
He knew the man had innate bewitching bones, but this was far too outrageous.
He could even bed a pregnant young wife into submission?
If he had possessed that confidence, Dai Yueying would not have had to die.
Xiao Dai, you died such an unjust death.
"What's with that expression? Are you questioning His Majesty's charm?" the heir apparent's wife asked with a frown.
Lianshan Xin had no answer.
He had indeed harbored a few doubts.
Now it seemed Top-Ranked Big Brother really had conquered the world with a single iron rod.
Even the Great Sage would have to call him Master.
Too powerful.
But he did not seem to have won over Xie Tianxia.
Wait, the heir apparent's wife was also a Xie. She was Xie Tianxia's younger paternal cousin.
Lianshan Xin studied the heir apparent's wife, whose face bore roughly a tenth of a resemblance to Xie Tianxia's, and fell into thought.
I get it.
Top-Ranked Big Brother had failed to win over Xie Tianxia, so he had found a substitute.
At heart, this was a downgrade in consumption.
At that thought, seventy percent of Lianshan Xin's rose-tinted view of Top-Ranked Big Brother instantly vanished.
He could see it now. Top-Ranked Big Brother was a little better than Dorgon.
Perhaps a little better than Lao Ai, too.
But he was not all that heaven-defying.
This Heir Apparent's Wife's looks and bearing were probably only a tenth of Xie Tianxia's.
Aside from the bonus of her status, there was not much to envy.
Once he had worked that out, all of Lianshan Xin's rose-tinted view of Top-Ranked Big Brother disappeared.
There was no need to mythologize anyone.
Especially now, when Lianshan Xin thought of Thousand Faces again.
However incredible
