The Empire will wipe out your Heretic God Cult one day, just like the war a hundred years ago led by Tranquil Prince.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Courting death,” the black-robed man in the center growled, his eyes flashing with anger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Black mist shrouded his hand, spiritual energy surging and forming a giant hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The hand pressed down through layers of space, aiming to crush Yellow Star from the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now that Yellow Star couldn’t use any power, he was no different from an ordinary person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, he was already prepared to die.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, a loud boom sounded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The massive hand in the sky was sliced in half by a single strike.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone turned to look at where the strike came from.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zimo calmly sheathed his sword, Shadow Tyrant, and smiled. “No need to be so violent. Let’s talk things out.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We were going to ignore you, the one that slipped through, but clearly you don’t understand your place,” the black-robed man on the left said, waving his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Two chains descended from the sky, surrounded by black mist, and shot toward Xu Zimo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Who's the one that doesn’t understand?” Xu Zimo said with a smile, shaking his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He took out something from his storage ring.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a round object that looked like a star disk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The disk was stunning, like the beauty of the starry sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Milky Way spanned the vast universe, cascading down from the heavens.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Countless starlights reflected in the sky, filling it with brilliant colors.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A full moon hung in the center of the stars.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zimo looked at the disk in his hand. This was the Heaven-Derivation Astrolabe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had extorted it from the Celestial Sage while in the Holyflower Region of the Middle Continent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Heaven-Derivation Astrolabe was extremely powerful when it came to analyzing and breaking formations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially after Xu Zimo fused it with the Hexa-Genesis Immortal Formation and many others, very few formations could withstand its power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the sealing chains approached, Xu Zimo smiled and activated the disk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In that instant, a vast starry sky descended around him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stood in the midst of the stars, surrounded by the moon, stars, and flowing Milky Way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the starry sky, a brilliant star fell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The falling star cut through the void and, at the last moment before fading, collided with the incoming chains.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sparks flew everywhere. The star vanished, and the chains shattered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, the three black-robed men looked shocked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One of them asked in a grim voice, “What is that?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The sealing chains broke. That item must be some kind of treasure,” said the one on the left, his eyes greedy. “Perfect for bringing back and studying.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Only if you make it out alive,” Xu Zimo said with a light laugh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The star disk in his hand burst with light, shooting starlight into the sky and completely breaking through the black sky above.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everything inside the star disk manifested, clashing with the black mist in the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The eight black pillars around the city also started shaking violently, rumbling loudly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“He’s trying to break our Eight-Star Heaven-Locking Formation,” said the black-robed man on the right, squinting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That item he has seems to naturally counter formations,” the one in the center nodded slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Take it!” With a roar, the three of them charged at Xu Zimo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“There are three thousand paths in formation arts, trap first, kill second.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zimo whispered to himself. He waved both hands, and countless stars turned into streams of light, flying from the starry sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The colorful stars gathered together to form an oval-shaped shield.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The shield descended from above, trapping the three black-robed men inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What is this?” they roared, attacking the trap.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The entire shield began to shake and tremble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zimo waved his hand again, and the flowing Milky Way solidified into a long spear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The spear was incredibly sharp. Its tip shimmered with dazzling starlight, radiating immense power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zimo gripped the spear and hurled it with force.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Dodge it!” one shouted, watching the spear pierce through the void.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Surrounded by dark demonic energy, the space in front of them collapsed as the spear approached.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three tried to dodge, but the trap was too small. They couldn’t break free.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With three simultaneous screams, the long spear pierced through all three from the chest and pinned them to the sky like skewers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, the Heaven-Derivation Astrolabe also shattered the Eight-Star Heaven-Locking Formation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A flood of starlight broke through the black mist, destroying the eight black pillars around the city.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a final explosive shockwave in the sky, the entire formation crumbled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment it broke, the seals on Yellow Star, Yellow Moon, Yellow Sun, and Mo Ye were lifted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brother Xu…” Mo Ye looked at Xu Zimo with a complicated expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfathomable, that was how Xu Zimo now felt to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thank you for saving our lives,” the three from the Yellow Division quickly came over to thank him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Just a small effort,” Xu Zimo waved it off and pointed to the three black-robed men still pinned in the sky. “What do you want to do with them?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had trapped them but hadn’t killed them yet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If you want to kill them, go ahead,” Yellow Sun said with a smile. “If not, we can take them back to the Empire. Maybe we can extract more information about the Heretic God Cult.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then take them,” Xu Zimo said casually.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those three had no real value to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>……\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zimo also needed to go to the Phoenix Perch Empire.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His maternal grandfather’s family, the Wenren Clan, was located in Phoenix Wing City, the Empire’s capital.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So traveling with the Yellow Division was convenient.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mo Ye had to return to Tranquil Prince’s manor to report everything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mo Ye explained the situation in the city to Gao Zelong, then they departed Tranquil Heaven City early.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fastest way to reach Phoenix Wing City was by teleportation array.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The teleportation array to Phoenix Wing City was located in Phoenix Cry City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So they had to head to Phoenix Cry City first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>……\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On a towering, rugged mountain peak, the beautiful landscape was covered in a layer of mist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the summit, two people were playing a game of chess.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man on the left wore a green robe. His hair and beard were white with age, but despite being in his sixties, he still looked energetic and sharp.\u003C\u002Fp>",1159,"2026-06-06T01:06:40.721Z",1,"novelbin.me","c34fd4a675277d21db4d58e165226b4e46238c715a7abb10e0f3f348812f9b37","i-really-am-a-villain-chapter-436","i-really-am-a-villain-chapter-434",1822,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-really-am-a-villain-cover.jpg"]
