I Am the Fated Villain
chapter-327

Qin Wuya felt that the situation was getting worse. He noticed how hard Gu Changge was breathing when they exchanged moves.

[Seems like it is impossible for him to conceal his injuries. So, he really has not fully recovered yet…] Qin Wuya had always felt proud. He saw himself as having a wider outlook compared to others, especially after he left the Nine Realms. Thus, he could not stand this. That though he still had a lot of methods left unused, Gu Changge’s cultivation level was catching up to his.

“He is even able to go against an expert in the Sacred King Realm!”

“He’s indeed our Young Master!”

“Young Master is still invincible, even if he is seriously injured!”

Many of Gu Changge’s followers were frantic and excited. They finally felt Gu Changge’s invincible might. Now, in their eyes, he symbolized what it meant to be invincible.

At this moment, in the other parts of the Black Tortoise Empire, there were also many young prodigies who rushed over immediately after hearing news of someone trying to assassinate Gu Changge.

*Boom!* In the sky, a scarlet glow beam flew. There was a faint trace of a Celestial Phoenix spreading its wings, as its flames soared into the sky, reflecting everything. A woman in a red dress, who looked impeccably beautiful, tall and slender, was walking over. It was none other than the Celestial Phoenix.

“Is this the true strength that Gu Changge has been hiding?” She was shocked and her beautiful eyes could not help widening. Just now, she had seen Gu Changge and Qin Wuya fight, and her heart palpitated.

“Sacred Lord Realm…”

In the other direction, the King with Six Crowns, Jun Yao, had also appeared. It was the first time that he had such a serious expression on his face. Unexpectedly, he was frowning.

But there were still many who were focusing their attention on Qin Wuya’s figure, guessing his identity. Although his face was covered, not many at such a young age had such strength. They had just heard that Chu Hao, the Third Prince of the Vermilion Bird Empire, had greatly increased his cultivation level, and had reached the Sacred King Realm in just a few hundred years.

The mysterious man in front of them did not seem to be that old as well.

“What’s going on tonight? Young Master Changge is still badly injured. How could he fight with someone again?” The young prodigies who had hurried over, asked in confusion.

“I heard that a man donning a black robe came to assassinate Young Master Changge and escaped after he was defeated. He hid in the dark and used the cunning scheme of luring the tiger away from the mountain. Then, this second man came, planning to use Young Master Changge’s absence to attack Liu Ziyan…” Someone who knew the ins and outs of the matter immediately explained, and quickly told them everything.

The crowd gasped in shock. The expressions of the Phoenix Lady, the King with Six Crowns and others all changed.

“What a vicious plan!”

“If anything happens to Saintess Ziyan, Purple Mansion will definitely be furious, which is likely going to make the situation even more complicated.”

“Since Saintess Ziyan is in Young Master Changge’s hands, Purple Mansion has been acting cautiously, lest their anger is unjustly targeted. But, if something were to happen to here while she is confined by Young Master Changge…”

Many felt a chill run down their spine as their scalps tingled. [This is a ploy to frame Young Master Changge!]

If it weren’t for the fact that Gu Changge had seen through such a scheme, what would have happened afterward would have been unimaginable.

“The black robed man was the one who appeared beside the Successor of Demonic Arts that day…” Later, someone said and explained the matter clearly, causing a stir and feelings of anxiousness.

After all, even the Successor of Demonic Arts was not afraid of Gu Changge. Then, what about them? They would be placed in even more danger. Just as everyone was shocked, the battle in the sky got even more terrifying.

The blow of the two was earth-shaking. The mysterious man’s cultivation level had reached the Sacred King Realm. All sorts of Sacred King Realm’s methods were shown, which restructured the whole world. It was as if an Immortal God had descended, suppressing everything, and killing everyone at a whim,

Then, a technique that seemed to be something that originated from the Immortal Families has come out. The power it displayed was unfathomable, with ancient small worlds appearing, vast and boundless.

The Nine Realms Phantom Manifestation!

This scene shocked everyone. Their faces all changed. Even the Phoenix Lady could feel her heart beating faster. After all, they were Ranked Disciples of the Immortal Academy.

The most powerful young prodigies in the Upper Realm, who overlooked their peers! But in the aftermath of the battle between the two, they couldn’t help trembling and were about to kneel down.

“I’m truly inferior to Gu Changge.”

At last, she deeply sighed. Eyes full of frustration as she admitted that she could not match up to Gu Changge. In the past, she still had the intent to fight him, thinking that she would have a chance to compete against him, and win in the future.

But today, she saw with her own eyes that while Gu Changge was still injured, he was still calm when fighting against such a powerful mysterious man, which deeply shocked her.

“No wonder Prince Shen died, even with his Sacred Emperor Grade artifact protecting him. Meanwhile, Gu Changge, who left his Sacred Emperor Grade artifact outside the Land of Eternal Overcast, had only sustained major injuries… This is just the difference between them. It seems, from now on, Gu Changge was officially be the strongest among the young generation. A fact which no one would, could and dares to steal away from him.”

With a sigh, the Celestial Phoenix appeared in the Phoenix Lady’s eyes. Now, what she wanted to know the most was the identity of this mysterious man fighting against Gu Changge. Judging from his appearance and age, he should not be too old, not more than a thousand years old.

[To think he is already in the Sacred Lord Realm… It seems that I need to break open a layer of my seal…] On the other side, the King with Six Crowns took a deep look at Gu Changge and whispered in his heart. Gu Changge was indeed the opponent he was most satisfied with. The King with Six Crowns’ real strength naturally surpassed what was shown on the surface. In the past eras, he had forcibly reduced his cultivation level. Sealing them, and cultivating back up again.

After all, defeating his peers with only his cultivation level was meaningless. He wanted to hone his skills. In this life, his cultivation level was only in the Sacred Noble Realm, and he hadn’t reached the threshold of the Sacred Lord Realm yet.

[If I go against Gu Changge now, it’ll only end in one way, my utter defeat. So, I should unlock my seals… Yes, I should…]

*Rumble!* The impact shook everything, and the shockwaves seemed boundless.

Qin Wuya kept stepping back, his expression was gloomy and uncertain. In the battle against Gu Changge, he had already used many of his divine abilities that he had learned in the Nine Realms. However, when they faced off against Gu Changge, they were all resolved by his special use of Principles.

Moreover, Qin Wuya felt that his arm was numb, that it was about to break off. It should be noted that his physique was one of his strongest points. In fact, Qin Wuya was extremely confident in the robustness of his own body. The cultivation techniques he had practiced since childhood were all closely related to body refinement. Furthemore, he had soaked himself in a lot of spiritual liquids, which helped refine his body to obtain the Indestructible Vajra Physique.

In the Nine Realms, he killed many strange monsters and refined his body with their blood essence. He had also eaten many strange Immortal Fruits, such as the Bodhi Fruit, the Imperishable Flower, and the Origin Fruits as well, all of which helped to refine his body.

Qin Wuya was even confident that he could defeat two Sacred Emperor Realm experts at the same time. However, even with all this, his physical body did not seem to have the slightest advantage over Gu Changge.

It was difficult for him to calm down. He felt that he had really met a monster.

[Gu Changge is obviously seriously injured, yet he is still so strong. If he had fully recovered, how frightening would he be? No wonder even someone like the Successor of Demonic Arts had to run for his life, and found it difficult to face off against him!]

“The reason why the Successor of Demonic Arts managed to kill so many young prodigies this time, is not that they underestimated him. It was that they underestimate those that support him. Still, because Gu Changge had concealed his true strength so well, everyone mistakenly thought that although the Successor of Demonic Arts is powerful, his overall power and influence was still limited.”

Some of the young young prodigies’ expressions changed at an extremely fast speed, slightly turning pale.

“That’s right. Before this, who would have thought that Young Master Changge’s real strength would be so terrifying? How weak could the Successor of Demonic Arts, who could run away safely under such strength, be?”

After figuring this out, many young prodigies’ faces turned pale as they related these back to the Successor of Demonic Arts’s actions. The reason why he set up this scheme should be to target Gu Changge. Prince Shen could only be judged as unlucky, to have been caught in the crossfire.

Only the Chosen Monk Jin Chan was smart enough to sense that something was wrong in advance and did not fall into the trap.

While everyone was discussing in shock, a vast blast appeared in the sky, as if an ancient pavilion had fallen, and even the stars trembled.

Countless had their faces turned pale as they knelt down in fear with their souls trembling.

“I already know who you are.” Gu Changge said lightly. His eyes were deep and calm, but more of indifferent.

The fearsome Great Seal of Mountains and Rivers appeared, and golden light was surging as if it could suppress the whole world. *Bang!*

Heaven and earth exploded, and the universe reversed, penetrating through everything!

Qin Wuya’s expression suddenly changed. He didn’t expect that Gu Changge would suddenly take out and use a Sacred Emperor Grade artifact. Caught off guard, he was hit on the head by the Great Seal of Mountains and Rivers, and many of his bones were broken.

*Pui!* He spat out a mouthful of blood and flew backward. A black stone appeared from under his robe. From it, all kinds of Principles interwoven, trying to block the blow. However, it was still too strong. If it weren’t for his strong body, he would have exploded.

Then, Qin Wuya took out a very ancient stone tool, which was carved out of the teeth of some unknown ancient beast, emitting a hazy light. After being wielded by him, it immediately formed a star chart, with all kinds of patterns falling down and enveloping the Great Seal of Mountains and Rivers.

“Not good…” However, Qin Wuya felt a chill run down his spine and his expression suddenly changed. The veil he used to cover his face had been broken and he did not know when it happened. [Damn it! So, that was his true goal!]

“It’s him! The man from the Wondrous Stone…”

“As suspected, this has something to do with Sky King Zhi Yang.”

The moment they saw the mysterious man’s face, many of the young prodigies below were shocked and the area was in uproar. They had never expected that it would be this man. Even the King with Six Crowns, the Phoenix Lady, and Liu Ziyan were shocked.

When the Wondrous Stone was cut open, many young prodigies had rushed over to watch the scene. They had thought that the one who appeared would be the reincarnation of a True Immortal, but they didn’t expect that it was just an ordinary man. They were very disappointed.

Moreover, the cultivation level he showed at that time was only in the Enlightened Noble Realm. Afterward, he and Sky King Zhi Yang were in a close relationship with each other, and there seemed to be some connection between them. But now, who would have thought that he would be here? And his strength was so terrifying.

“Where is Sky King Zhi Yang? Tell me where he is. If not, you will die today.” Gu Changge’s eyes were calm and indifferent, and his voice monotonous.

The Great Seal of Mountains and Rivers floated behind him as if it was about to cover all the mountains and rivers in the world. It was extremely terrifying!

……

Qin Wuya knew that his identity was exposed and everything was developing towards the worst-case scenario. He glanced at Gu Changge coldly and said nothing. Then, the ancient treasure made with beast teeth in his hand exploded. The divine light was surging, like a sun exploding, and terrifying energy poured out.

All the young prodigies’ expressions changed. They quickly retreated, their eyes stinging and tears streaming down.

On the other hand, Qin Wuya took the opportunity to rush away into the distance, towards the void, to escape.

“Oh no! He wants to escape!”

Many young prodigies noticed and wanted to chase after him. After all, it was related to the matter of the Successor of Demonic Arts. They were afraid that after tonight, there would no longer be any peace. Thus, how could they possibly let him escape?

“It seems that I’m still too stubborn…” However, this time, Gu Changge did not continue to chase after him. He could not help but shed blood from the corner of his mouth. His face was slightly pale and he calmly sighed.

“Is Young Master Gu Changge alright?” Liu Ziyan appeared beside him and asked, worried.

The King with Six Crowns, the Phoenix Lady, Ying Yu, and the others also came over. They looked at Gu Changge with different expressions, some were complicated, and some were worried.

“Don’t worry. I left a mark on him just now. He won’t be able to escape far. While he’s at it, he can help me uncover where Sky King Zhi Yang is hiding.”

Looking at the worried young prodigies, Gu Changge smiled.
