545: Various factions want to form a marriage alliance

The reason these factions brought these women was, naturally, to form a marriage alliance with Ye Xuan.

After all, Ye Xuan had previously married many women from prominent aristocratic families, acquiring countless wives and concubines.

The families of these wives and concubines had all benefited, and now that Ye Xuan had entered the dao source Realm, if a woman from their Family could gain Ye Xuan's favor,

Then they would receive even greater benefits.

Especially those factions with shallower foundations, or those who had indirectly clashed with Ye Xuan and felt uneasy, offered their most outstanding and beautiful women to express their loyalty.

They all presented the most exceptional and beautiful women from their clans, hoping to form a marriage alliance with Ye Xuan and the Ye Family.

These women who were sent were of noble status: some were princesses of divine dynasties, some were goddesses of Ancient Clans, and some were Saintesses of Sects. All were peerlessly beautiful and exceptionally talented.

They were either cool and aloof, or charming and passionate, or heroic and spirited. With diverse temperaments, they were all beauties capable of astounding the heavens.

It was extremely difficult for an ordinary person to obtain even one of these beauties.

But at this moment, these women were before Ye Xuan, allowing him to choose freely. No matter how many he wanted to marry or if he desired to enjoy the blessings of having many wives, no one dared to say anything... For nearly a month, the Welcoming Immortal Platform, specially used for receiving foreign guests on the Ziwei Great Emperor Star, was almost overflowing with people.

With women of varying builds, immortal grace, and jade-like complexions, this area seemed to have become a gathering place for beauties from all the heavens, drawing countless Star Alliance Cultivators to secretly glance and marvel.

However, these people only dared to look; they did not dare to harbor any other thoughts.

After all, the women here were all prepared for Ye Xuan and had nothing to do with them... "I heard that Ye Xuan has now entered the dao source Realm. If he favors a woman, after dual cultivation, she can also receive great benefits, perhaps even breaking through shackles and attaining the Dao in one fell swoop."

"Yes, not only that, but Ye Xuan is also incomparably handsome, even surpassing some from the great aristocratic families."

A strange brilliance flickered in the eyes of these women.

After all, who wouldn't want to marry an extraordinarily heroic man? And Ye Xuan happened to be such a person.

Not only was he powerful, but he was also exceptionally handsome, truly the dream lover of countless goddesses and Fairies.

"If that's the case, then I must meet this Ye Xuan."

"With my looks, he will surely notice me at first glance."

The women stood together, whispering.

Ye Qingtian listened to these words, but his Heart-Nature remained unperturbed. He merely recorded the names of these women, sorted by the size of their factions.

And sent them to Ye Xuan and Tang Linglong for review... "Husband, you've been quite prominent recently. Look, these are all women who want to form a marriage alliance with you."

Ning Qingxue smiled as she placed the album beside Ye Xuan's hand and said.

"Indeed, even after layers of selection, weeding out those who weren't as outstanding, there are still over thirty. Husband, you're truly blessed this time."

Tang Linglong covered her mouth and chuckled softly.

She now felt no ripples in her Heart-Nature regarding Ye Xuan marrying other women as wives and concubines.

After all, no matter how many people Ye Xuan married, she was the undisputed main wife, the matriarch of the entire Ye Family.

These women could not threaten her. Moreover, with the help of Xuanji, Fire Linger, and others, if these newcomers were obedient, all would be well.

But if they were disobedient or harbored other thoughts, she would not show mercy.

"Yes, they are all beauties."

Xuanji also smiled faintly, her Heart-Nature equally undisturbed.

In the main hall of the Imperial Palace, Ye Xuan listened as Ning Qingxue and Tang Linglong reported on the visiting factions and the astonishing number of marriage proposals in recent days. His face showed little emotion, though a faint hint of helplessness flickered in his eyes.

"Husband, among them are not a few Fairies and goddesses renowned throughout the heavens. If there are good ones, just take them in directly."

Ning Qingxue also smiled and said, "It seems everyone has recognized this path as beneficial. And some of the princesses sent by ancient divine dynasties are said to have Bloodlines that can even be traced back to Primordial Gods and Demons, possessing extraordinary talents."

"Anyway, Husband has already taken in many beauties from the Ziwei Great Emperor Star, so a few more won't hurt. Moreover, the Aptitude of these women is much better than those from the Ziwei Great Emperor Star."

Fire Linger pouted from the side, saying, "Hmph, aren't they just seeing that Husband now dominates the heavens and want to cling to you? Husband, you can't just bring anyone into the Family! If you're going to take them in, you need to properly vet them."

"The previous ones are fine, but now, if their Physique doesn't reach the Divine Body level, they're simply not worthy of being with Husband."

Ye Xuan couldn't help but laugh at her words. He reached out and pulled Fire Linger into his embrace, pinching her cute nose: "Don't worry, your husband isn't so desperate as to take just anything."

His gaze swept over the mountain of Jade Slips, his eyes calm.

When power and authority reach their peak, they are accompanied by endless temptations and dependencies.

He had long expected that these women would be sent to become one of his wives and concubines. Originally, the more children he had, the stronger his power became.

It was just that recently, due to some matters, he hadn't taken any more wives.

Now that things were finally showing some progress, it was time to take some wives and concubines.

"However, it is indeed time for some new people."

Ye Xuan's remark about it being time for some new people caused the expressions of the goddesses in the hall to vary.

After a long while, Tang Linglong and Ning Qingxue exchanged smiles, with a hint of understanding and mischief.

Fire Linger pouted but ultimately said nothing, secretly deciding to help her husband vet them carefully.

Xuanji's expression remained cool and aloof; as long as Ye Xuan had her in his Heart-Nature, she wouldn't care about these things.

"Since Husband has this intention, then let's choose carefully."

Tang Linglong, as the matriarch, was the first to state her position. She picked up the album.

"These women are all extraordinary, with many factions involved behind them. We need to deliberate carefully, considering their personal character, appearance, and talent, as well as weighing the connection between their backing factions and the Star Alliance."

Ning Qingxue added: "Sister Linglong is right. This matter concerns the internal stability and external relations of the Star Alliance. We need a proper procedure. Why don't we follow Sister Ling'er's suggestion and set up several thresholds? Physique, Heart-Nature, talent, and background all need to be considered. We would rather have fewer but better."

Ye Xuan nodded slightly. He had no intention of marrying too many anyway. After all, at his level of power, to conceive offspring, he needed women with top-tier Physiques and Aptitude. Ordinary women were no longer of much use to him.

"Then let's do as you say. For the specific matters, Linglong and Qingxue will take the lead, with Ling'er and Sacred Maiden Shen Lan assisting from the side to draft a procedure."

"Alright, just leave this matter to us."

Tang Linglong and the other women nodded.

The news of selecting consorts was not deliberately publicized, but it was no secret among the upper echelons. The women at the Welcoming Immortal Platform and their backing factions quickly got wind of it. For a time, some were happy, some were worried, but most were eagerly preparing for the upcoming trials.
