Come out and meet us,” Xu Zimo walked out of the inn, looking up at the sky as he spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh?” A low murmur drifted from the heavens.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“A minor lineage like Martial Heaven actually has someone like you? To be able to see through my Floating Cloud Illusion Tower.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the sudden voice, everyone’s expression changed drastically.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially the Second Prince, Chen Luo, he seemed to realize something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at the town again, everyone now felt that every corner was steeped in strangeness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some trees were lush and green, while others were completely withered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The townsfolk walking along the streets, on closer inspection, seemed to be repeating the same motions over and over, as if programmed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the smile on the innkeeper’s face grew more and more unnatural.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Luo raised his voice toward the void, “Could it be Lord Deep Void?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You little brat do have some knowledge,” the old man’s voice replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next moment, the ground beneath their feet trembled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The entire town they stood in was uprooted and then rapidly shrunk before their eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When they looked around again, they realized they were standing in nothing but desolate wilderness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Where was there ever a town?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ahead of them, an old man slowly walked over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wore a gray robe, dressed in the style of a scholar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His spirit was vigorous. At this moment, he extended his right hand, and that small town, shrunk to mere hundreds of times smaller, was spinning in his palm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That vast town just now was nothing more than a toy in his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zimo glanced at it, finding it rather novel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This seemed more like a technique of “a thousand miles within reach”, to alter the size of things at will.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, the difficulty was certainly far greater than it appeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Greetings, Lord Deep Void,” Second Prince Chen Luo quickly said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Since you’ve heard my name, you should know why I’ve come,” Deep Void Progenitor said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Senior, are you here on behalf of the Breaking Dawn God-Dynasty to kill me?” Chen Luo asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The struggles between empires, Senior, as an Ancestor of Tranquil World Tower, you would actually interfere and break the rules?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Isn’t that girl beside you also from Tranquil World Tower?” Deep Void countered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“She’s only a junior,” Chen Luo hurriedly said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t worry. I’m not so shameless as to bully the young,” Deep Void said. “I won’t kill you, but someone else will.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a wave of his hand, a young man stepped forward from behind him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This youth was also dressed in a gray robe, his head hidden under a red-brimmed hat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This is my disciple. He will fight in my stead,” Deep Void said. “If you win, you may leave.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Senior, are you here representing the Breaking Dawn God-Dynasty, or my dear elder brother?” Chen Luo asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The inheritance of the Nine Nights Immortal Sovereign had just been discovered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His father had entrusted him entirely with this task. If he handled it well, the Crown Prince’s seat might soon be his.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To obstruct him now, either his brothers were behind it, or a rival empire.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That doesn’t matter,” Deep Void waved dismissively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The youth beside him stepped forward first, bowing slightly with clasped fists, “Yue Qingyun of Tranquil World Tower.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The woman in white also stepped forward, replying evenly, “Yu Huashang of Tranquil World Tower.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Senior Sister Yu, forgive my offense,” Yue Qingyun said, then shouted lightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He grabbed with his large hand, and instantly the sky turned dark.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From his hand emerged a giant mountain, crashing down toward Yu Huashang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he threw it, it was no larger than a palm. But as it descended, it grew into a true mountain peak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Huashang’s silk ribbon unwound, lengthening into a thousand meters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her graceful ribbon was like rivers and mountains themselves, wrapping around the mountain, binding it tight, and hurling it away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a resounding boom, the mountain collapsed, but instead of shattering, it turned into pure energy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It flowed back into Yue Qingyun’s hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immediately afterward, countless ribbons slashed toward him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yue Qingyun’s eyes sharpened, his aura surging. With another wave of his hand, a vast primeval forest appeared before him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Within it, ten thousand beasts thundered forth, a tide of monsters charging.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Huashang’s ribbon split into countless strands, which merged into blades, axes, and other weapons.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a moment, she and the beasts clashed in a chaotic melee.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nearby, Xia Wanqing looked at Xu Zimo and asked, “Who do you think will win?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If it were a fair fight, she would win. But with that old man watching, Yue Qingyun will win,” Xu Zimo replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Why?” Xia Wanqing asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Because they can’t afford to lose,” Xu Zimo smiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After speaking, he turned to the Second Prince.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I heard you’re ranked seventy-eighth on the Heroes Ranking?” he asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So what?” Chen Luo replied flatly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then why don’t you step up? Why let a woman fight in your place?” Xu Zimo asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then why don’t you go, Brother Xu?” Chen Luo countered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“They’re here to kill you, not me,” Xu Zimo said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes shifted to Deep Void Progenitor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Old man, if there’s nothing else, we’ll be leaving now,” he said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Not so fast, young man. Let’s wait until this duel is decided,” Deep Void said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ahead, Yue Qingyun and Yu Huashang were fighting furiously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Dao of Transformation in their hands was wielded with breathtaking mastery.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All manner of creations clashed in wild collision.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Yu Huashang was clearly gaining the upper hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yue Qingyun was being pressed step by step, on the verge of defeat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, Deep Void discreetly flicked his finger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A surge of powerful energy poured into Yue Qingyun’s body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an instant, his aura exploded. The illusory forest around them detonated, erupting outward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Huashang was sent flying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It seems you’ve lost,” Deep Void said with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If Senior wanted to kill us, you could just do it directly. Why all this scheming?” Chen Luo said coldly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Deep Void, you’ve truly grown old and disgraceful,” just then, a voice rang from the distant horizon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“To strike at a junior, you’ve forgotten the rules of Tranquil World Tower?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that voice, Second Prince Chen Luo’s expression instantly relaxed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Another elder appeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wore a yellow robe, carrying a jade cauldron, stepping calmly through the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Jade Cauldron True Immortal,” Deep Void murmured the name coldly. “You’re going to interfere in this matter too?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Why, do you have a problem with that?” Jade Cauldron True Immortal asked evenly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“In that case, I’ll let them go today,” Deep Void said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But remember this, Tranquil World Tower’s foundation cannot be altered. The decree of the Thousand-Ox Dao Court has already been issued. I think you understand better than I what the Grand Era demands.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without another word, Deep Void took Yue Qingyun and departed.\u003C\u002Fp>",1166,"2026-06-06T01:07:09.694Z",1,"novelbin.me","edf924c2e1a1531cea005048060126133ca0c35e0b13a40e5d67c559eb979252","i-really-am-a-villain-chapter-1053","i-really-am-a-villain-chapter-1051",1822,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-really-am-a-villain-cover.jpg"]
