Take a concubine, but make sure it's the enemy's ancestor

In a fantastical world teeming with challenges and unforeseen twists, Cao Wenbin finds himself in a remarkable predicament when he accidentally traverses to a realm where he becomes the Saint Son of the prestigious Cao family. Initially, he believes that this new status will pave the way for glory, power, and respect. However, he soon discovers that this world is anything but simple. It resembles a chaotic dream where danger lurks at every corner, and the rules of engagement are dictated by the caprices of fate. This world is a rich tapestry woven from countless novel elements, where lucky individuals—those blessed with extraordinary fortune—sprout like bamboo shoots after a rainstorm. Additionally, fated protagonists, seemingly destined for greatness, are as abundant as dogs in the streets. In such a fiercely competitive environment, every move carries immense significance. A single misstep could lead to disastrous consequences, transforming triumph into catastrophe in an instant. The Cao family stands as one of the most powerful forces in Zhongzhou, a region bustling with hidden agendas and political intrigue. Although the family enjoys an outward appearance of grandeur and influence, the internal dynamics are complex and often treacherous. As the sole Saint Son of the family, Cao Wenbin quickly realizes that he is not merely a figurehead. He must confront formidable external threats while simultaneously navigating the intricate web of power struggles and rivalries within his own clan. In this high-stakes game, Cao Wenbin learns that simply relying on his family name and status will not suffice. To survive and thrive, he needs to cultivate both wisdom and courage, embracing the challenges that lie ahead. Fortunately for him, during his tumultuous arrival in this world, he acquires a mysterious divine book. This book is not just a repository of ancient knowledge; it holds the key to unlocking his true potential. As he delves deeper into its pages, he begins to uncover secrets that will aid him in his quest for survival and dominance. As Cao Wenbin gradually masters the teachings within the divine book, his life transforms in unimaginable ways. The previously mundane existence of merely subsisting in this chaotic world is no longer his fate. Instead, he becomes determined to take control of his destiny, rising above the limitations imposed upon him by fate. The divine book empowers him with insights and strategies that can turn the tide in any confrontation, making him a formidable player in this dangerous game. However, with great power comes great responsibility, and Cao Wenbin soon realizes that the divine book's abilities are not without limitations. He discovers that the realm he inhabits is a chessboard controlled by various powerful entities, each with their own agendas and ambitions. Every decision he makes carries weight, and he must navigate a labyrinth of plots and counterplots to emerge victorious. Cao Wenbin's enemies are not always what they seem. They could be longstanding adversaries lurking in the shadows, or they might even be friends and allies with hidden motives. This uncertainty forces him to question his trust in those around him. As he confronts these challenges, he must rely on his intuition and the wisdom gleaned from the divine book to outmaneuver his foes.

The terrifying Elder Wang.

Those who can attend the banquet are all prominent figures.

No one would care about that little bit of food.

So, once the little incident was over, some people immediately took their leave.

After seeing off the vast majority of the guests, Cao Wenbin didn't waste any time. He directly rushed to the place where Long Zimei was with Zhang Zhiyan.

He was extremely curious about the secret of that Dragon Mother.

"Husband, what is the Path to the Heavens?"

Cao Wenbin was startled.

Then he suddenly remembered that Zhang Zhiyan came from a first - class force, so it was normal for her not to know.

So, while walking, Cao Wenbin explained, "The Path to the Heavens is an extremely large secret realm."

"No one knows its origin."

"It is jointly controlled by all the immortal forces."

"Every one hundred years, this secret realm will open once."

"And at that time, it is a carnival for all the immortal forces."

"Because there are rumors that inside the Path to the Heavens, there are treasures that can even make a Supreme Being take a step further."

"Of course, these are just rumors."

"However, there are quite a number of other good things."

"During the last opening of the Path to the Heavens, my father passed through four levels and finally obtained a supreme medicine, the Emperor - Becoming Pill."

Zhang Zhiyan's expression changed with shock.

She knew about the Emperor - Becoming Pill.

It can increase the probability of becoming an emperor.

It's no exaggeration to say that if a peak - level Saint takes an Emperor - Becoming Pill, there is almost a 100% chance of breaking through to the Emperor - level.

However, this thing is extremely difficult to refine, and it hasn't appeared in the Immortal Domain for thousands of years.

Unexpectedly, the Cao family had one.

"Since this secret realm is so important, why don't the high - level members of your immortal forces take action?"

He shrugged. "Because this secret realm, like most secret realms, has an age restriction."

"So, it's always the younger generation who take action."

"I see."

While the two were chatting, they finally arrived at the place where Long Zimei was staying.

"Young master, young madam!"

The speaker was an old man.

His long beard reached the ground, and he looked very old.

He looked as if he could pass away at any time.

But Cao Wenbin didn't dare to underestimate him at all.

Because even Zhao Yuan'er didn't know exactly how old this man was.

All she knew was that he had always been the steward in the Cao Mansion.

Since ancient times, it had always been so.

"Elder Wang, why did you come here in advance?"

"This is the first time the young master has ordered this old servant to do something. Naturally, this old servant has to be more active."

"Young master, please."

With that, Elder Wang pushed open the gate of the small courtyard on his own initiative.

This was a three - entrance courtyard, with everything one could need inside.

Obviously, the servants who arranged for Long Zimei didn't understand Cao Wenbin's intention.

They really thought that their young master wanted to have some fun with this Dragon Mother.

However, it's understandable. If even the servants could figure it out, the controlled Long Zimei might have escaped long ago.

Soon, several people found Long Zimei by the pond.

At this moment, she was feeding the fish.

"Young Master Cao is indeed Young Master Cao. You even make such a big fuss for a small matter."

"Don't worry. I'm fully automatic and don't need anyone to serve me."

Cao Wenbin ignored her.

After Elder Wang showed an expression of understanding, Cao Wenbin immediately asked, "Have you noticed anything?"

Elder Wang nodded confidently. "The restriction on this woman is called the Soul - Teasing Art. It was created by a rapist six or seven thousand years ago."

"Those who are hit by this art will have their self - consciousness suppressed deep in the sea of consciousness, and everything will be centered around the interests of the caster."

"Interesting. It's really interesting."

"I thought this art was lost after that rapist was killed. Unexpectedly, there are still people who know it."

At first, Long Zimei was completely unconcerned.

But after Elder Wang revealed her details, her expression immediately changed.

Then Long Zimei turned around and was about to leave without a second thought.

But unfortunately...

This is the Cao family. How could she just leave as she wished?

"Stop!"

Elder Wang just snorted coldly without even moving.

In the next moment, Long Zimei, a first - grade Emperor, was directly fixed in the air.

Unable to move up or down.

"Damn..."

Cao Wenbin's eyes almost popped out.

He knew that Elder Wang was powerful, but being this powerful was still beyond his acceptance.

"What is this old guy's strength?"

Although he was full of questions, Cao Wenbin didn't ask.

After all, when it was time for him to know, Elder Wang would definitely tell him at the first time.

"Elder Wang, since you've seen the problem, can you solve it?"

Originally, Cao Wenbin thought he would get an affirmative answer.

However, unexpectedly, Elder Wang shook his head very decisively.

"The caster's level is not low. Unless the caster is completely killed, this art is unsolvable."

Cao Wenbin's expression changed. But before he could say anything, Elder Wang spoke again: "However, I can temporarily awaken her self - consciousness. It can last about five days."

The corner of his mouth twitched, and Cao Wenbin immediately smiled bitterly. "Five days is too short. It's not enough for me to make arrangements."

"Elder Wang, is there no other way?"

Creation is hard, cheer me up!
