In the game "Super God," thankfully, it can simulate countless worlds.

The beautiful woman in palace attire put the picture book back in its usual place and then asked if there was anything else.

If there's nothing else, she'll go back and report.

You pause for a moment, then smile and call her "sister," before asking her when you can leave this place.

[For the past few days, you've been trapped inside this palace, completely unaware of what's happening outside.]

[I don't know what kind of treatment I'll receive in the future, or how the people within the Hengjie Dynasty will view me. You can't believe that such a large organization will be united.]

[Like that temple of the gods, the various factions within it are just short of a final battle, and they are even willing to cooperate with the enemy in order to kill their own people.]

Do you want to know where you should go in the future?

The beautiful woman in palace attire looked at you with surprise, not expecting you to be so easygoing.

[Which normal genius isn't arrogant and conceited? There aren't many like you who are so easy to talk to.]

The beautiful woman in palace attire hesitated for a moment, glancing left and right as if afraid of being discovered.

[Then she stepped forward and introduced herself as Xiao Qing, the younger sister of the current emperor, possessing sixth-order strength. She had come on behalf of the emperor to witness your Space-Time Dao Body.]

[There weren't any other tasks besides letting you choose a partner. The other reason was to get to know what kind of person you are through your words and actions.]

Your eyes lit up, and you thought to yourself, "As expected, the identity of the first person to contact you must be extraordinary."

You walked over kindly, took Xiao Qing's arm, and led her to a secluded corner. After a moment's hesitation, you took out the Blood Life Bead and placed it in her hand.

[This is one of the few sixth-tier treasures you possess; you have nothing else on you.]

[As a supreme treasure in the path of bloodline cultivation, do you think the Blood Life Pearl would be absolutely irresistibly alluring to someone like Xiao Qing, who possesses royal blood?]

Seeing the Blood Life Bead in his hand, Xiao Qing calmly slipped this sixth-tier treasure into his breasts.

You glanced at the other person's chest with slight surprise, sensing within it a vast, abyss-like fluctuation of spacetime.

This woman is no ordinary person!

Xiao Qing rolled her eyes when she saw you staring at her cleavage, telling you to stop making wild guesses.

Xiao Qing removed a necklace from her neck, telling you it was a time-space treasure she used for protection, possessing not only immense power but also storage capabilities.

You pursed your lips; it turns out you were overthinking it.

Seeing your disappointed expression, Xiao Qing bit her lip in frustration. She was sure you were thinking something strange.

However, for the sake of the Blood Life Pearl, she decided to endure it.

Despite her noble status, Xiao Qing faces fierce competition within the dynasty. While there are many valuable items, the competition for them is equally intense.

Within this dynasty, there are countless people of noble status. Although Xiao Qing's brother is the emperor, his strength is only at the seventh level.

To put it bluntly, the throne is just a facade; to obtain resources, you still have to rely on your own strength.

[But Xiao Qing was only at the sixth level, and her talent was just average; many good things were not for her.]

The Blood Life Pearl, being a supreme treasure of bloodline, held a strong attraction for Xiao Qing; she never expected you would be willing to give her such a treasure.

[If I had known you were so generous, she would have included her own portrait in the album back then.]

I thought a genius from a small town like you must be a poor bastard, but I never expected you to be so well-hidden.

Thinking about this, Xiao Qing's gaze towards you became somewhat strange.

[You not only possess a time-space Dao body, with a bright future ahead, but you also seem quite wealthy. How could you just let someone else have you so easily?]

Xiao Qing felt she could try to get it done herself.

[You pondered for a moment, then asked her if there were any of the seventeen imperial couples chosen for you in the catalogue that required special attention.]

[You figure out that if you want to get out of house arrest, you'll probably have to show the Hengjie Dynasty your sincerity.]

[Perhaps he would need to bear children with a woman of royal blood to gain the court's trust and thus a degree of freedom.]

This is an open strategy, and no matter how you look at it, you don't seem to be at a disadvantage.

But you feel that things aren't so simple. You know nothing about the backgrounds and identities of these seventeen princesses, and there might be a huge trap waiting for you.

Xiao Qing's eyes flickered, and she told you in a very guilty tone, "These people are all noble ladies from respectable families. What's there to be wary of?"

You twitched your lips, thinking Xiao Qing's acting was a bit too exaggerated.

It's as if they're afraid you won't know there's a problem here.

You rubbed your forehead and told Xiao Qing in a very serious tone that as long as he helped you this time, you would repay his kindness tenfold in the future.

Xiao Qing nodded knowingly, then waved his hand and took out the sketchbook again.

She's about to introduce you to everyone here.

As Xiao Qing explained, your heart sank.

[These women are either the daughters of generals who are disloyal to the dynasty, or descendants of families disliked by the dynasty's patriarch.]

[It sounds like none of your seventeen future wives are normal people?]

This shouldn't be happening!

If you were to marry all seventeen of these women at the same time, would you even have a chance to leave this palace?

[You never considered that Xiao Qing was behind this. Why would she, the Emperor's own sister, lie to you?]

You take a deep breath, realizing this won't do; you have to save yourself.

[You asked Xiao Qing if she still had a chance to regret it?]

Looking back now, these women were all noble ladies of the imperial court. For an ordinary person to marry even one of them would be a stroke of good fortune. What merit do you, a mere sixth-rank official, possess to be able to take all these favored women of heaven into your harem?

You've changed your mind.

Who cares how beautiful these women are? You don't want any of them anyway.

Xiao Qing looked at you with a pitying expression and slowly shook her head.

She tells you that no matter who you ultimately choose, you cannot escape your fate.

[Don't you realize that you're just a genius from a small place, yet you've already been granted the status of a Holy Son upon arriving in the Dynasty. You've probably taken resources from countless others.]

Would those who have already benefited from this situation be happy about it?

No matter who you want to marry, or how many you want to marry, you will eventually fall into the enemy's trap!

[And you can't refuse to marry them. If you dare not marry any of them, it means you have a problem with the dynasty, and what good will that do?]
