Try if you dare,\" Dark River snorted coldly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Seems like you still don’t understand the situation you’re in,\" Immortal Sovereign Yellow Spring chuckled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a casual wave of his hand, the surrounding spiritual energy violently surged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before Dark River could react, he was blasted backward, flung through the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Once you step onto the Path of Immortality, you sever ties with the mortal realm,\" Yellow Spring sneered. \"You probably don’t understand the gap between us.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What’s your connection to the Undying Race?\" Chaos asked, narrowing its gaze at him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Bloodline from the Desolate Era,\" Yellow Spring replied with a glance. \"Seems you know quite a bit.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What, afraid to say more?\" Chaos pushed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not afraid,\" Yellow Spring said blandly. \"Just no need to explain to you people.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So, have you considered my offer?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before Xu Zimo could reply, Chaos roared and lunged at Yellow Spring with a raised claw.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yellow Spring chuckled, lifting a hand calmly as infinite spiritual energy swirled around him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With another casual wave, Chaos was sent flying, its massive body tumbling back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Beasts must be tamed,\" Yellow Spring said, shaking his head with a smirk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zimo narrowed his eyes, about to speak, when suddenly, a massive boom erupted in the distance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The barrier around the city trembled violently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cracks and fractures appeared across it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yellow Spring's expression shifted. He turned quickly and saw beneath the dark yellow sky, a holy warship slowly approaching.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ship hovered just outside the barrier. A burly man wielding a giant axe hacked at it relentlessly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With every blow, the barrier shuddered, looking like it could collapse at any moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Panic flickered across Yellow Spring’s face.

Thunder roared, it was like the god of lightning descending.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A beam of pure violet light burst out, piercing the void and striking the yellow vortex that Yellow Spring was using to escape.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The vortex exploded into pieces. Spatial turbulence erupted across the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You dare!\" Yellow Spring roared, turning his furious gaze toward Xu Zimo and the others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just then, the barrier shattered with a deafening blast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The holy warship blitzed through like a beam of light, so fast it was barely visible to the naked eye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing it charge straight toward him, Yellow Spring's face darkened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You go too far!\" he shouted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A mighty immortal pressure radiated from his body, blanketing the entire world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Above him, his True Fate manifested: a massive, dark Undying Mother Worm emerged in the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He actually used the Undying Mother Worm as his True Fate,\" Chaos said in shock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The bug was enormous, with no visible legs. Its chubby body looked like it was wrapped in coils of fat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From a distance, it might even seem cute, until you saw its face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its eyes were narrow and sinister, its face full of deep wrinkles.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It had no nose, and its gaping mouth took up half its face, like dozens of slits torn open. Absolutely horrifying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the holy warship slammed into it, the Undying Mother Worm screeched.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a swing of its massive body, it smashed the ship apart, splitting it in two with a deafening crash.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Several figures flew out from the wreckage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leading them was a woman in blood-red armor and a crimson cloak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had short hair and pitch-black eyes, with a giant axe strapped to her back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her aura was overwhelming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pointing at Yellow Spring, she shouted, \"Yellow Spring! Submit now and return to receive your punishment. How dare you resist?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’ve tolerated you for long enough!\" Yellow Spring roared. \"I’ve hidden for years, yet you still hound me. You won’t stop until I’m dead!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fine. Then let’s all die together. I’ll bury you here in Yellow Spring City!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As his Immortal Sovereign aura erupted, a soft sigh echoed across the world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Foolish child... you haven’t changed.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment the voice sounded, Yellow Spring froze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That voice, it was painfully familiar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He turned his head slowly and looked to the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A young man carrying a longsword walked toward them from the horizon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked only about twenty years old, with a gentle face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But his eyes were deep and endless, filled with the movement of stars and all the laws of the universe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had no overwhelming aura, but the moment he appeared,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The entire world fell silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Zenith Immortal...\" Chaos whispered in awe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an era where Heaven’s Will was undefined and no Grand Emperors roamed, Zenith Immortal was the apex of the world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Master...\" Yellow Spring murmured.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s been a long time since we last met, hasn't it?\" the youth smiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You've become what you are now... I share the blame for not disciplining you better.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is it wrong to seek power?\" Yellow Spring asked softly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No,\" the youth said, shaking his head. \"But your methods are completely wrong.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Enough fighting. Come back with me to the clan. As your teacher, I can promise your life will be spared.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’m not going back,\" Yellow Spring said flatly. \"Either let me go… or kill me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The youth sighed gently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He raised his right hand and flicked his finger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A ray of immortal brilliance shot out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before anyone could react,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The beam pierced the Undying Mother Worm’s forehead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a wail, the monstrous bug disintegrated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No... how could the difference be this vast...\" Yellow Spring muttered, face pale.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without looking back, he tried to flee.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The youth calmly extended his hand again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A chain of immortal light formed in the air, cutting through the void, and bound Yellow Spring tightly in mid-air.\u003C\u002Fp>",1046,"2026-06-06T01:06:40.721Z",1,"novelbin.me","e58f8f6ec8a53806377dcb99883439f387399c8674964a1ae074fc5d107c9c14","i-really-am-a-villain-chapter-274","i-really-am-a-villain-chapter-272",1822,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-really-am-a-villain-cover.jpg"]
