How To Survive as a Villain
Chapter 48: This Might be the Pseudo-Harem.

The magic of Xiao PingYang doesn’t lie in the fact that she made the stallion protagonist stop accepting more members into the Harem. After all, even if he doesn’t add more girls into his Harem anymore, the girls that Yan HeQing once brought were enough for him to die¹.

The most amazing thing about Xiao PingYang, was that her and Yan HeQing’s bedtime scenes were never written in the original book!

They don’t exist!!

Not a single sentence, nor a single word, nor a punctuation mark, nothing!!!

In the second half of the novel, almost every member of the harem and Yan HeQing rolled the sheets for three whole chapters. But only Xiao PingYang didn’t!

This was also the most incomprehensible thing for the readers.

In Yan HeQings’s harem, apart from Xiao PingYang, only Princess Yongning had such treatment. But Princess Yongning didn’t had the opportunity to be intimate with Yan HeQing because she was killed by the author. So, why did Xiao PingYang, the Empress, never been described in a bed scene?

Moreover, Xiao PingYang’s role in the original book was also quite extraordinary.

Although she’s the Princess of the Western Shu Kingdom, she has another identity: General of the Western Shu Kingdom. Yes, she’s a young but powerful female General!!

When Yan HeQing attacked the Northern Kingdom, it was Xiao PingYang who was sent by the Western Shu Kingdom to support him.

That was the first time that Xiao PingYang and Yan HeQing met in the original book. Like a clear stream or water, Xiao PingYang naturally won’t be like the other girls where in the first chapter they met and in the second chapter she’s pushed down.

In short, after helping Yan HeQing defeat the Northern Kingdom, Xiao PingYang returned back home.

Just when the readers thought that this heroic girl wouldn’t become a part of the Harem, the author raised their giant palm and slapped everyone in the face.

In the original book, when Yan HeQing successfully recovered the Southern Yan Kingdom, captured the Northern Kingdom and the Eastern Wu Kingdom one after another, everyone thought that Yan HeQing would continue to attack the Western Shu Kingdom, but contrary to that, Yan HeQing didn’t make a move.

Just when everyone thought that the pattern was one big country after a smaller one, Xiao PingYang ascended the throne and became the Emperor of the Western Shu Kingdom. Then, Yan HeQing sent troops to fight over it!!

And when everyone thought that when they encountered each other at the battlefield they would fight for their lives, unexpectedly, Yan HeQing asked Xiao PingYang to marry him. On the battlefield!!

Everyone was so confused!!!

What the hell is happening?

It was even more confusing, because Xiao PingYang knew that she couldn’t beat Yan HeQing, and she didn’t want the people of the Western Shu Kingdom to be trampled by war. In the end, she agreed to Yan HeQing’s proposal and married into the Northern Kingdom becoming the Empress. Naturally, after that, the Western Shu Kingdom belonged to Yan HeQing.

Surprisingly, Yan HeQing successfully unified the four countries into one Kingdom!!!

Just because he married a wife!!!!

Married a wife!!!

Others would fight for their father and mother, but Yan HeQing fought for his wife!!! This progress made people speechless!!!

As a reader, Xiao PingYang was probably Xiao YuAn’s favorite wife from Yan HeQing’s harem.

There’s no need to explain that it isn’t just because Xiao PingYang and he share the same Xiao² surname, but because Xiao PingYang’s temperament is so heroic that there’s not need to explain further.

In the original book, the author never described her smile. She was always cold, acting cold, and being icy cold. People gave her the nickname: “The Iron Masked Lady³”. And Xiao YuAn gave her the nickname: “Xiao popsicle”.

Also, because there was a lot of readers that live for the bed scenes, at that point, they analyzed the second half of the book and came to the conclusion that Xiao PinYang may not like Yan HeQing at all.

But it was precisely because of her strong nature that she was able to control Yan HeQing’s harem. Besides, his harem is so huge, how can there not be a single evil woman. If it weren’t for Xiao PingYang, those who were gentle and weak in nature, would’ve been killed long ago.

Xiao PingYang’s identity is so special, and now she’s suddenly standing at the main Hall of the Palace. Xiao YuAn felt that his heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys were trembling.

Why did she appear so early!!!

Does she really want to take the male lead away from Princess Yongning?!

To be honest, the only one in Yan HeQing’s harem that is comparable to Princess Yongning is Xiao PingYang!

After the ceremony, all the envoys of the Western Shu Kingdom took their seats, and Xiao YuAn didn’t took his eyes away from Xiao PingYang.

Standing behind Xiao YuAn, Yan HeQing could clearly see all of Xiao YuAn’s actions, and his eyes were very gloomy as he followed Xiao YuAn’s gaze directed at Xiao PingYang. He held his sword at his waist and clenched it silently.

Xiao YuAn eyes were faintly burning. When he turned his head around quietly, he saw that Yan HeQing was intensively looking at Xiao PingYang, and without saying a word, his heart thumped.

Damn it!!!

So this is the situation. He couldn’t see his first wife yet, so he wants to take advantage of the second wife first!!

How will the plot develop from now on!!!

There’s a popular saying: “One drop of sperm, ten drops of blood”, it regards semen as the essence of the human body, which is worth ten drops of blood, meaning that ejaculation will hurt vitality. Therefore, men should control sexual desire, or endure ejaculation to preserve semen. According to modern medicine, semen can be replenished through metabolism.
