Villain : I reincarnated as a Prince! Shouldn't I have a Harem?

"Four!"

At this moment, the Shadow Veil Sect Leader raised his hand. The other sect leaders looked at him with bewildered expressions. He was the last person they expected to raise his hand, given the pride he had.

"Three!"

"Two!"

Noticing that it was the last second, the other four sect leaders also raised their hands in a hurry. If Shadow Veil Sect Leader chose to do so, he must've thought something, right?

They knew that he was more experienced and intelligent compared to them so they decided to follow his decision.

"One!"

"Alright, since all of you are ready to submit to His Highness, there is no need for any hostility between us. Chen Lu, help the esteemed sect leaders ingest this insect!"

"Yes, Sect Leader!" Chen Lu said with a bow before leading the other elders with one insect in each of their hands.

Ashen looked at this scene with a satisfied smile while looking back on his plan.

"This Scarlet Mind Schine is too expensive. I could only buy three with the amount of Villain Points that were left with me. I used one on Chen Lao and the other two on the Celestial Harmony Sect Leader and Feng Xue"

"I could only buy more after killing two protagonists of the Eternal Blossom Sect and since they appeared in my space ring, I instructed Chen Lu to act as if he caught me while trying to take something out of my space ring."

"After that it was easy, Chen Lao passed the ring to the elder who used the space ring to bring out more mind Schines to feed the Sect Leaders, bringing them under my control!" MVLeMpYr-novel-source

"AAAAAAAAAAArrrrrrrrrrrrr!"

"AAAAAaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrr!"

Screams of pain began resounding in the arena as the sect leaders ingested the insect and let it take control over them.

After all of them had ingested the insect, Ashen and Chen Lao revealed satisfied smiles as Ashen gestured for the four King Realm experts to leave the Sect Leaders. There wasn't any need to apprehend them any longer.

Ashen could kill them with just a thought now!

The Four King realm experts adhered to his wishes and moved to Ashen's side to protect him from any unforeseen danger.

Meanwhile, Chen Lao, who was curious about the reason for the Shadow Veil Sect Leader's agreement, asked: "Shadow Veil Sect's Leader, why did you raise your hand? I thought you were too prideful to submit to anyone"

Hearing his question, the other Sect Leaders also looked at the Shadow Veil Sect Leader, curious to hear his answer.

Shadow Veil Sect's Leader noticed the curious gazes as he explained with a prideful expression:

"It's simple. I just weighed the pros and cons of each choice. Even if I refused, you'll just kill my disciples and loot my sect until I agree, it would just lead to unnecessary suffering while If I said yes, I'd just be submitting to a Prince and I don't think it is a bad choice considering his talent and intellect."

"If His Highness Ashen can reach the Core Formation realm at such a young age, his talent must be out of this world and he is sure to succeed. Also, if he has a mind that can outsmart all of us, then I don't think there is any shame in submitting to him."

"Hahaha, As Expected, Great minds think alike. Good good, now we all are on the same boat, let's help each other in this journey!" Chen Lao praised before turning to Ashen and kneeling respectfully: "Your Highness, Everything has been done according to your wishes and I await your next command!"

Ashen nodded before his gaze drifted to the other Sect Leaders, asking with an indifferent expression: "What about you all? Are you also willing to obey me?"

The Shadow Veil Sect Leader knelt similarly to Chen Lao as he said: "Yes, Your Highness. We are willing to obey your command!"

Following his lead, the other sect leaders also knelt down as they showed their willingness.

However, Feng Xue and Peak Master Xia didn't say anything, and noticing that, Ashen smiled as he asked: "What about you, Feng Xue? Are you not willing to submit to me and follow me as your master?"

Feng Xue's eyes widened on hearing him calling her by name, she was used to hearing him call her master, so this made her surprised, but she soon remembered that all of the disciple master relationship she had with him was a ruse created by him to achieve his goal.

Calming down her mind, she also agreed: "I-I am willing!"

Ashen found her quite alluring, seeing her submissive like this.

Smiling cheerfully, Ashen clapped his hands as he ordered: "Alright then, Let's decide on the rankings you all will get in my faction. Since Chen Lao has been so loyal to me, he is ranked first. Now, the rankings from second to tenth are up for the taking."

"So, to motivate you all, I'll explain the benefits your ranking will give you. After I become the emperor, the benefits will be distributed according to the rankings. For example, the land you'll get to rule, the resources you'll receive, and priority in receiving help from me!"

"You should know that I can even help you ascend to the emperor realm after becoming the emperor so the rankings will be quite important!"

"Now, To decide the rankings, I have come up with a way and It is to check your loyalty towards me! I'll give you all a task and the ones who completes the task the fastest will win. Oh, and don't worry, The insect will not force you to complete the task even if you choose not to do it, so, should we begin?"

Hearing the benefits of the rankings, excitement shined in the eyes of the sect leaders, ready to compete with each other on the task. Even if they were in control of Ashen, they wanted to at least look down on others.

They nodded, displaying their eagerness to know the task.

"Alright, the task is simple, You all just need to sacrifice something precious to you to show your loyalty!"

Saying that an evil smile appeared on his face as he said: "And that something precious is the lives of your personal disciples... kill them!"

"What??" The Sect Leaders had their pupils enlarged in shock.
