Villain: Manipulating the Heroines into hating the Protagonist

After returning to the Royal Palace in Aria City, Wang Jian introduced Chen Yiyan to his mother, Bai Liqin, who was thrilled to meet her new daughter-in-law.

"Welcome to our family, Chen Yiyan. Make yourself at home," Bai Liqin said warmly.

Wang Jian then informed his mother that they were planning to settle down in Aria City.

To their surprise, Bai Liqin revealed that she had already constructed a personal palace for them in another region of the city.

As they made their way towards the new palace, Bai Liqin excitedly updated Wang Jian on the development of his faction and the current political situation in the city.

"Ah, my dear son, you truly are a dragon who will soar to great heights! Your breakthrough to the King Realm has attracted the attention of all factions," Bai Liqin declared.

She continued, "And those tribes you brought from the Zhenguan Region are thriving at an astonishing rate. I've been providing them with various pills and fruits to enhance their cultivation and strengthen their foundation. Many of their talents have already ascended to the Lord Realm."

"What about my women? Have they attained the Lord Realm?" he asked his mother.

"Indeed, they have. All of them have already broken through to the Lord Realm, but Su Xian has gone even further and reached the second stage of the Lord Realm. Her cultivation speed is truly remarkable," Bai Liqin responded with a grin.

Wang Jian expressed his gratitude, "Thank you, Mother. This wouldn't have been possible without your support."

Bai Liqin waved her hand dismissively, "Don't mention it. I gathered all this power and influence for you. I am just pleased to see that you are finally devoted to developing your own faction. It will be of great help to you in the future, regardless of whether you ascend the throne or not."

After a short while, Wang Jian and his entourage arrived at the opulent palace.

The palace was built with the finest materials and decorated with intricate designs, making it a sight to behold.

As they approached the entrance, a group of servants in uniform appeared to welcome them.

The servants were quick to take care of their belongings and lead them to their respective rooms.

Lady Zhuoran's Silver-Tailed Fox Clan was also given a special area within the palace, decorated with fox-themed ornaments and designs. The members of the clan looked pleased with their new living quarters.

With Chen Yiyan by his side, Wang Jian walked through the halls of the palace, leading her to meet Su Xian and Fen Shuying.

The two women were overjoyed to see him and immediately rushed to embrace him upon his arrival.

Wang Jian introduced Chen Yiyan to his women, and they welcomed her warmly.

As the evening wore on, Bai Liqin took her leave from the palace, leaving Wang Jian and his entourage to settle in and make themselves at home.

As they sat in the living room, Su Xian and Fen Shuying eagerly bombarded Chen Yiyan with questions.

"So, how was the journey to Aria City?" Su Xian asked with a curious glint in her eye.

"It was quite tiring, but it was worth it to finally meet you both," Chen Yiyan replied with a smile.

Fen Shuying leaned in, her eyes sparkling with excitement. "And what is the Windhaven Kingdom like?"

Chen Yiyan took a deep breath, trying to gather her thoughts. "It's a beautiful place with lush greenery and rolling hills. The people there are friendly and welcoming."

"That's great! Maybe we should plan a trip for the Windhaven Kingdom sometime," Fen Shuying suggested with a bright smile.

A smile appeared on Chen Yiyan's face as she spoke, "That is a great idea. I will guide you around the best spots of the Kingdom."

"It's a promise!" Fen Shuying spoke.

Wang Jian couldn't help but smile as he watched his wives chatting and laughing together. However, he knew he had some serious matters to discuss with Su Xian, his first wife.

"Xian'er, I want to have a word with you in private?" he requested, motioning towards the door to head to a more secluded area of the palace. "I would like to hear a report on your group and how they're doing."

Su Xian nodded, her expression turning more serious. "Of course, my dear. I will update you on everything."

Wang Jian stared at Fen Shuying and subtly signalled her to keep Chen Yiyan occupied and help her settle down.

Fen Shuying understood his signal and smiled while reassuring him.

Very soon, Wang Jian and Su Xian were having a walk around the palace.

"So, first of all tell me how your group is doing? What is their current level of cultivation?" Wang Jian asked curiously.

Su Xian's eyes glimmered as she responded, "Thanks to Madam Bai's resources, they have already reached the Origin Realm. However, their battle strength is quite weak. I had them spar against some members of the Night Dagger Clan, and they were all defeated miserably."

Her face expressed guilt as she added, "I'm afraid I couldn't train them well enough."

Wang Jian placed his hand on her shoulder, assuring her, "Don't worry, Xian'er. You are judging them based on your standards. You are a genius, and not everyone has the same natural talent and quick thinking as you."

"There is a solution to this, and it's simple. I will invite experts to our palace, masters in various fields, to guide and provide insights to them. This will clear any confusion they may have and allow them to progress quickly," Wang Jian said.

He then asked, "What about the other tribes? How are they developing?"

Before departing, Wang Jian had instructed his mother to oversee the faction's development and provide Su Xian with a report on each tribe. He wanted his wife to learn how to manage his faction effectively.

Su Xian reported back, "The growth of our faction is going extremely well. Four elders of the Night Dagger Clan have recently attained the Lord Realm, and so have three members of the Miracle Angel Tribe and two from the Crimson Mammoth Tribe."

"Moreover, each tribe is currently making remarkable progress in their cultivation and training. By the end of this month, we expect each tribe to have more than ten Lord Realm experts," Su Xian finished with a smile.

Wang Jian nodded, pleased with the progress, "Excellent news. With such a strong foundation, we can expand our influence in the city."

"Have they taken on any jobs?" Wang Jian inquired.

"Not at the moment. They are solely concentrating on refining their cultivation," Su Xian replied.

"That's wise of them, but if they stick to this strategy, it could take a considerable amount of time for them to make an impact in the Empire," Wang Jian remarked.

After pondering for a while, he suggested, "Let's create two teams, each with nine members. Each team should have two members from each of the three tribes and a Lord Realm expert from each tribe."

"What would be the task of these teams?" Su Xian asked eagerly.

After a brief pause, Wang Jian spoke, "The primary task of these teams will be to hunt down powerful beasts and demons, but they could also take on tasks such as escorting caravans or protecting towns from bandits."

"The more tasks they complete, the more famous they will become, and the more recognition they will gain from the people and other factions."

Su Xian couldn't help but voice her concerns, "Wouldn't the other clans and sects try to sabotage these clans?"

After living in the Empire for a short time, she had gained a lot of insight into the political landscape. She had come to understand that the Empire was a brutal place where the powerful sects, religions, and clans had established a monopolistic stranglehold.

Wang Jian nodded his head in agreement, "That's a valid concern, Xian'er. However, my current fame will make them pause and think twice before acting against these clans. For now, there's no need to fear them. Moreover, we should expand our reach by setting up businesses in the capital and other major cities. I have a few ideas in mind that can help us grow."

As he was about to divulge more details, a maid arrived and bowed before Wang Jian. Su Xian inquired, "What's the matter?"

"Your Highness, the Second Princess is here to see you. She's waiting in the main hall," the maid responded humbly.

Wang Jian raised his eyebrow in curiosity and replied, "Alright, you may leave now."

Once the maid had left, Su Xian looked at Wang Jian inquisitively. "What should we do? Why would the Second Princess come to visit us?" she asked.

Wang Jian pondered for a moment before speaking. "Let's find out," he said with a small smile.

"I-I can come?" Su Xian was taken aback by the invitation.

"Of course," Wang Jian replied, gesturing for her to follow him.

They made their way to the main hall, where the Second Princess awaited them.
