I Am the Fated Villain
chapter-890

Wang Zijin widened her beautiful eyes in shock. At the same time, her expression went slack. She was having a hard time wrapping her head around the shocking statement.

[I only took a small sip of the immortal wine and that has cause me to fall asleep for 10,000 years!? How is that possible!? How was I drunk for that long!?]

“10,000 years…” she mumbled softly. Running her hands through her messy hair, she sat down on the bed and hugged her knees.

[Did 10,000 years pass just like that? Then, what about my parents, my Brother, and my relatives? Are they still alive?] However, she abruptly came back to her senses when she noticed the small smirk that flashed at the corner of Gu Changge’s lips. [I’ve definitely been deceived by him! No matter how strong the immortal wine is, it’s impossible to fall asleep for 10,000 years just by taking a single sip. Gu Changge, you bastard! How can he trick me at a time like this!?]

“Damn it, you bastard! You lied to me again! How long did I actually sleep for?” She glared at him fiercely when she realised the truth. Then, she randomly grabbed one of the immortal silk pillows beside her and threw the pillow at him.

“It looks like you’ve gone stupid from sleeping too much. I thought you would instantly realise the truth.” Gu Changge drank his tea and leaned sideways against the door. In doing so, he easily dodged to the side and avoided the pillow she threw at him.

She was tempted to grab the bedding to throw at him. Rolling her eyes, she angrily snapped, “Isn’t it because I trust you? Who would have thought that you would deceive me?”

He revealed a faint smile and walked toward her. “It wasn’t that long. You only slept for seven or eight days.”

“If it’s only seven or eight days, then that’s fine.” On the other hand, she abruptly became vigilant when she saw him walking towards her and warily questioned, “What do you want, Gu Changge? I’m warning you! Stay away from me!”

While speaking, she retreated backwards and hugged her knees to her chest. She practically cowered at the corner of the bed with a pitiful expression on her small and delicate face.

He naturally ignored her pretence and responded with a light smile. “If I had wanted to do something to you, I wouldn’t have waited until now. I would have taken action during the last seven or eight days.”

Those words made her glare at him once more. Dropping her pretence, she stretched lazily and glanced down at her clothes only to discover that they were untouched. She couldn’t help muttering softly under her breath, “You immoral beast…”

“You seem a little disappointed.” He chuckled.

His reaction made her teeth ache with annoyance. Nevertheless, she decided to ignore his teasing and stand up. She walked out. She neither wished to stay here for another second longer nor see his face again.

Although her memories of that day were a little hazy, she had a vague impression of what happened afterwards. For example, when she wrapped her arms around his neck and rubbed her face against him, he had blocked her advances with his hands as though she was disgusting… Just thinking about what happened made her expression darken, and she was tempted to beat him up if she could.

One could say that Gu Changge was a man who did not understand women, but he was also far from being clumsy or dense.

In the Upper Realm, the innocent and kind-hearted Jiang Chuchu had been firmly wrapped around his little finger. Despite knowing that he was the culprit behind the chaos in the world, she had tried to cover for him in various ways. Even though she was the Saintess of Mortal Palace, she showed no intention to eradicate harm to the common people. On the contrary, she had stayed by his side and allowed him to freely manipulate and encourage the evildoer.

“Where are you going?” Gu Changge leisurely sipped on his hot tea and glanced at Wang Zijin.

“I’m going home,” Wang Zijin replied in a huff. “I don’t want to see your face right now. It’s so annoying…”

“Are you planning to return to the Wang Family in the Immortal Domain or the Wang Family in the Upper Realm?” He was not annoyed by her attitude. On the contrary, he maintained his smile and gently probed.

“Of course, I’m going back to…” She was taken aback by his words for a moment, and the rest of her sentence trailed away into silence. After being brought to the Immortal Domain, she never even considered that there might come a day when she could return to the Upper Realm again.

The Immortal Domain might be more suitable for cultivation, but in her opinion, her life in the Immortal Domain was far less comfortable and natural than in the Upper Realm. Not to mention, her parents and true Family in this life were all in the Upper Realm.

At this point, the only similarity between the Wang Family of the Immortal Domain and the Wang Family of the Upper Realm was the blood of their Ancestors flowing through their veins. Apart from that, they stopped having any connection with each other a long time ago.

If possible, she would naturally wish to return to the Wang Family in the Upper Realm.

“I have been away from home for more than a hundred years. What’s more, I vanished without any warning back then. I didn’t even have the time to inform my parents…” When she recalled the past, her expression suddenly turned rather melancholic. She couldn’t help feeling very sorry for her parents.

“How is the Upper Realm nowadays?” She abruptly realised something. Even after she reunited with Gu Changge in the Immortal Domain, she had not asked him about the situation in the Upper Realm.

The changes over the past hundred years were bound to be very large. After all, the Immortal King of the Wang Family who initially brought her to the Immortal Domain once mentioned that the Upper Realm would experience astounding changes in the near future.

She had been so busy arguing with Gu Changge that she had forgotten to inquire about the situation in the Upper Realm.

“How is the Upper Realm nowadays? Why don’t you go and take a look for yourself?” He smiled and refused to give her a direct answer.

Placing his teacup down, he guided her outside the courtyard. There was another person there. Dressed in clothes as white as snow was a tall and graceful figure who exuded a holy and saintly aura.

“The Sky Deer Goddess…” As might be expected, Wang Zijin recognised that figure.

Back in the Eight Wastelands and Ten Domains, Sky Deer Goddess had been the Protector of Sky Deer City. She later chose to surrender to Gu Changge voluntarily and claimed to be his concubine. Now that she had become an Immortal, her appearance became even more enchanting than before. Mesmerizing to the point one could not take their gazes away.

“Now that you have woken up, I will take you two back to the Upper Realm first. The Immortal Domain is going to fall into chaos soon…”

With a flick of his sleeves, Gu Changge took the two women and ripped open a space rift without much explanation. He had been waiting for Wang Zijin to wake up, knowing that she would definitely want to return to the Upper Realm. It just so happened that Sky Deer Goddess wanted to return to the Upper Realm too, so he decided to bring both women with him in a single trip.

The Immortal Domain and the Upper Realm had yet to be truly integrated and unified at the moment. Therefore, it was necessary to return to the Upper Realm through the passage behind the Heavenly Ancient City. It would have been easy for him to rip apart the barrier of space between the two with his current strength, but he did not do that. The borders of the various Immortal Domain regions would take some time to connect. For him, this period was the perfect timing for him to lure out those ancient fossils who were currently hiding across the Immortal Domain.

Gu Changge was actually very curious about something. Gu Qingyi should have arrived at the Immortal Domain after separating from him back then. However, he had found neither her aura nor any of her traces despite periodically sweeping his divine sense through countless universes during this period.

Besides, the World’s Will of the Immortal Domain had yet to become whole. The True World was only operating by the established rules at the moment. Hence, there was no reason for Gu Qingyi to vanish without reason. She would never feel rest assured enough to leave everything behind and disappear.

Be that as it may, he did not ponder over his doubts for long. He had already made plans for that possibility. If Gu Qingyi remained in the Immortal Domain, then he could just use the opportunity to finish the farce from countless epochs ago. The two of them would join forces to consolidate the Mountains and Oceans True World. They would gather all Forbidden powers of this world to launch a counterattack on the Source Realm. In doing so, they would a Great War Against Heaven.

From his point of view, their Great War Against Heaven was bound to sweep across the entire universe. The surrounding True Worlds would inevitably be affected by the war. At the time, the Source Realm would also be afflicted with turmoil.

The grand ritual would be held in advance to carry out an extensive extermination, and the game that he had been strategizing for so long would finally come to an end at that moment.
