The already cool evening suddenly plunged into the deep chill of winter, so cold that everyone shivered uncontrollably.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old woman was shrouded in frigid energy, her hand reaching out toward the Titan. The snowflakes along her path began to freeze the space itself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Titan let out a furious roar. Though he couldn’t fly, when he stood upright, his height nearly matched the old woman floating in midair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With one punch, he shattered the spiritforce-formed hand the old woman had summoned, sending shards of ice scattering in the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Titan slightly crouched, then leapt from the ground like a comet streaking into the air. His jump spanned hundreds of meters. His right fist tore through space with overwhelming force and slammed toward the old woman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her expression remained calm as she slowly raised a dragon-headed staff. When the staff struck the ground with a soft tap, the space around her instantly froze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The falling snow coalesced into a massive shield.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Titan’s punch smashed into it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crack, crack!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cracks spread across the shield’s surface, but in the end, it held firm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old woman tapped the dragon-headed staff again. This time, a beam of white light emerged from the dragon’s mouth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As it flashed, the surrounding snowflakes condensed into the form of an ice dragon. The ice dragon roared and, with storm-like fury in its claws, charged toward the Titan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching the battle in the sky, Xu Zimo turned to Little Gui. “Go see who’s inside that carriage.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Little Gui nodded, and the two made their way toward the side of the carriage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Chi Lei saw them approaching, he quickly stepped in front of them and scowled. “What do you filthy peasants think you’re doing?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t go calling people peasants. The Chi Clan’s not all that great,” Little Gui snapped. He pulled out his long staff and charged at Chi Lei.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Little Gui was now at the peak of the True Meridian Realm, and he had cultivated a Grand Emperor-level technique given to him by Xu Zimo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before leaving the True Martial Sacred Ground, Xu Zimo had specifically upgraded Little Gui’s weapon, swapping his previous Profound-grade weapon for a Heaven-grade long staff.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though Little Gui wasn’t invincible among his peers, he was definitely of elite talent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His talent wasn’t particularly outstanding, but everything he had now came from stacked resources.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Little Gui clashed with Chi Lei, who was in the Desolate Meridian Realm, their fight was evenly matched.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zimo chuckled lightly and stood before the carriage. “The person inside… not planning to come out?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The carriage remained silent. The pegasus beside it neighed softly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zimo smiled, then slowly unsheathed the Shadow Tyrant on his back. The blade erupted in raging flames as he slashed down at the carriage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You dare!?” Chi Lei roared, furious and panicked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Worry about yourself first,” Little Gui laughed, his staff roaring like a tiger. Staff shadows filled the air, layered and unrelenting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The deep red carriage was split into pieces by Xu Zimo’s blade.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From within, a white figure flew out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a young woman in a purple dress. Her long hair was snow-white, and her eyes were a deep blue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her expression was cold and calm, an ice queen. Even her presence carried a faint, icy chill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Peak of the Desolate Meridian Realm,” Xu Zimo observed with a slight smile as he looked at her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Who are you people?” the woman asked coldly as countless purple ribbons unfurled from her body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zimo grinned and slashed with Shadow Tyrant, carving a deep rift in the heavens.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The woman frowned slightly. Her purple ribbons danced through the air and gathered together to block his attack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, those same ribbons transformed into countless sharp swords and rained down toward Xu Zimo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“For someone so young with strength like this, you must be the Saintess of the Chi Clan,” Xu Zimo said with a light laugh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His blade trembled slightly, and endless flames surged from it. Thunder rumbled, wrapping the sword in strands of faint violet lightning that exploded across the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The woman’s expression grew solemn. Her ribbons shattered to pieces under the force. The chill around her intensified as she was forced back a few steps.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Let’s end this. I’m not interested in wasting time with you,” Xu Zimo said casually.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he spoke, the full aura of a peak Paragon Meridian Realm cultivator burst from his body. The surrounding air exploded outward. With one step, ripples spread through space, he had appeared behind the woman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She gasped in shock, unable to react in time. Xu Zimo struck her in the back, knocking her from midair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If you dare harm her, prepare to face the wrath of the Chi Clan!” Chi Lei roared in fury.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He tried to save her, but Little Gui kept him pinned down, not letting him move an inch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the cold blade of Shadow Tyrant touched the woman’s equally cold neck, her gaze, normally icy and indifferent, now held a trace of shock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She never expected to lose so quickly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among her peers in the Eastern Continent, she had always held a sense of pride.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whether it was her talent, her clan, or her strength, she was not inferior to anyone, in fact, she surpassed many.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet now, in front of this complete stranger her age, she hadn’t even lasted a full move. She hadn’t even had time to use her stronger techniques before being defeated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, the battle in the sky reached a fever pitch. The old woman had gained the upper hand over the Titan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was an experienced veteran at the Imperial Meridian Realm, with immense combat experience, and her dragon-headed staff was a rare artifact.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Titan, despite being at a higher realm, likely in the Saint Meridian Realm, was seriously injured.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had to use half of his power to suppress his wounds, leaving him greatly weakened in combat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now the old woman’s aura surged. Snowflakes filled the sky like falling stars.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her dragon-headed staff glowed brightly. The ice and snow condensed into a long spear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its tip gathered a sharp edge and biting chill. The spear became a beam of light as the old woman poured all her power into it, intending to end the fight in one blow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the spear tore through the air, unstoppable and violent, her entire body grew visibly weaker, her life force dimming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just then, darkness fell over the world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A blade light burst from the horizon, accompanied by a low whisper:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Nineteen Forms of Dao-Seeking. Ninth Form: Celestial Rift.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The blade carried boundless sharpness and shattered the very fabric of space.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old woman’s eyes widened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Time froze in that moment.\u003C\u002Fp>",1135,"2026-06-06T01:06:40.721Z",1,"novelbin.me","78dd282799e26260cd3b5c0fcdd36d1989c50c3c6faeddc7d795a58bfaefb5ca","i-really-am-a-villain-chapter-159","i-really-am-a-villain-chapter-157",1822,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-really-am-a-villain-cover.jpg"]
