There’s no need to panic,” he said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How can I not panic?” Du Xiaozhuang replied anxiously. “The Patriarch is dead. Our Ancient Relicfolk doesn’t even have a Grand Emperor anymore. We won’t even be safe in this Ancient Town.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zimo continued shaking his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t rush. The sky isn’t falling. And the Ancient Relicfolk isn’t as weak as you imagine.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He patted Du Xiaozhuang on the shoulder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Go back and get some sleep. When you wake up tomorrow, everything will be fine.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“At a time like this, how could I possibly sleep?!” Du Xiaozhuang said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brother Du, there are many things you can’t see clearly,” Xu Zimo replied calmly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If you trust me, come back tomorrow and take another look. If you notify the clansmen now, it will only cause unnecessary trouble.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Du Xiaozhuang was anxious, he trusted Xu Zimo deeply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He hesitated for a moment, then asked, “So I should go back now?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Xu Zimo nod, he thought for a while before finally saying, “Brother Xu, I trust you. I’ll keep this matter secret until tomorrow. I’m just afraid someone else might discover the Patriarch’s death.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Your Patriarch isn’t dead,” Xu Zimo waved his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He did not want to say more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching Du Xiaozhuang’s retreating figure, Xu Zimo raised his hand and struck the old man’s corpse with a single palm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a loud boom, the body instantly shattered and dispersed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was no blood or flesh. Instead, it dissolved like dust and vanished into the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“A false death body. Clever, but it still accelerates exposure,” Xu Zimo said, shaking his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This kind of fake corpse might deceive ordinary people, but once one reached the level of a Saint Sovereign, it was easy to discern truth from falsehood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, it was not real life and could not perfectly imitate it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zimo stepped into the thatched hut.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The interior was extremely simple. There was only a stone slab bed, without even a table or chair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zimo knocked on the bed lightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he smiled and said, “Is this how the Ancient Relicfolk treats its guests?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The surroundings were silent. No one responded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If you’re unwilling to come out, then you’re forcing me to break in,” Xu Zimo said calmly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He clenched his right hand into a fist. Terrifying power gathered around it, twisting the surrounding space.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a single punch, Xu Zimo smashed down onto the stone slab bed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A thunderous roar echoed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The bed shattered completely, revealing a deep, bottomless hole beneath it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the hole surged a dense stench of blood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“A hidden world within,” Xu Zimo said with interest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It seems your Ancient Relicfolk is plotting something big.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Black light surged from within the hole. Amid powerful fluctuations, a figure slowly rose, wrapped in darkness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a person clad in robes, completely shrouded in black.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A chilling aura radiated from his body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eyes gleaming from beneath the hood fixed onto Xu Zimo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Who are you, to trespass upon the territory of my Ancient Relicfolk?” the robed figure asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Isn’t your race good at divination?” Xu Zimo smiled. “Then calculate my origins.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The robed figure looked at him for a moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Leave immediately. We will not pursue today’s incident,” he said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So you already calculated my arrival,” Xu Zimo said with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Perfect. I also wanted to take a look inside the Ancient Relicfolk.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zimo reached out with one hand. A terrifying force erupted, and he grabbed the other man by the collar in a single motion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he dragged him straight down into the depths of the hole.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Are you insane?!” the robed man shouted in both anger and shock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The outer layers of our Ancient Relicfolk are protected by thunder-fire seals and cursed beasts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Any outsider who breaks in will die for certain. Don’t drag me down with you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Relax. You won’t die,” Xu Zimo said with a faint smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“And you still need to guide me. I don’t plan on letting you sleep just yet.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As his words fell, Xu Zimo’s figure plunged rapidly downward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before long, he encountered the first layer of obstruction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thunder and crimson flames fused together, forming a devastating seal that locked down everything, capable of annihilating all living beings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zimo passed straight through amid deafening explosions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The first thunder-fire seal shattered instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He then descended into the second layer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Embedded in the earthen walls of the tunnel were countless eggs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Each egg contained a creature.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They all resembled lizards, covered in red skin, their bodies riddled with festering pustules.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They looked utterly repulsive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These were self-detonating lizards.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They possessed no combat strength, but the moment a living being passed through, they would explode instantly, leaving no chance to evade.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, the robed man shouted urgently, “You can’t go down there. Even a Grand Emperor wouldn’t survive such explosions.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s fine,” Xu Zimo replied calmly, raising his right hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The thunder-fire energy from the shattered first layer gathered once more, as if it had become part of his own power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A torrent of thunder and flame surged toward the eggs of the self-detonating lizards.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom, boom, boom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The entire tunnel shook violently, explosions echoing without end.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed on the verge of collapsing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zimo was enveloped by a layer of protective force as several branching paths appeared ahead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Which way?” Xu Zimo asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The robed man fell silent for a moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Do you want me to throw you down there?” Xu Zimo asked calmly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Left,” the robed man said hoarsely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Light appeared ahead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Within that light was a mysterious power enveloping everything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zimo felt his feet touch the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking around, he found himself in a space surrounded by walls forged of steel and iron.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Countless densely packed eyes were embedded across the walls.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Patriarch of the Ancient Relicfolk, won’t you come out and meet me?” Xu Zimo said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This place does not welcome anyone, especially those who force their way in,” an aged voice replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What the Ancient Relicfolk has done, you know best. My arrival was inevitable,” Xu Zimo said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He closed his eyes and sensed his surroundings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everything here fell within his perception.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were hundreds of Grand Emperors alone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Ancient Relicfolk had hidden itself extremely well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And in the deepest part of this place, there was faintly a terrifying aura spreading outward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Who exactly are you?” someone asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Everyone, I think we can talk this through peacefully. If you insist on using force, I don’t mind wiping out the Ancient Relicfolk,” Xu Zimo said calmly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He snapped his fingers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Paimon’s figure appeared, stepping through the air at some unknown moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The terrifying might of his Death-Despair Dao Fruit erupted, suppressing everything instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A vast pressure descended, sealing the entire particle world of the Ancient Relicfolk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Who are you?” At this moment, an elderly member of the Ancient Relicfolk stepped forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wore a red robe and had a long beard. His aura was the strongest among them, faintly reaching the peak of the Grand Emperor realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Paimon smiled slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>",1198,"2026-06-06T01:07:29.809Z",1,"novelbin.me","bb15a8aaa464b7aa5ebbaed4c3cb4b528db9f80a24b4952b2a812b072f5e7897","i-really-am-a-villain-chapter-1781","i-really-am-a-villain-chapter-1779",1822,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-really-am-a-villain-cover.jpg"]
