We’ll come immediately.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yin Wuhen also understood that without the Heaven's Will, the God Emperor’s power, even after thousands of years of cultivation, was only at the God Meridian Realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He might not even be able to defeat an ordinary Immortal Path cultivator.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The God Emperor’s resurrection was a well-kept secret in the Divine Gate. Besides Yin Wuhen, only a few elders knew about it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The God Emperor paused for a moment, then finally accepted the flare.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He said solemnly, \"If everything goes well on this trip, it will be the beginning of our Divine Gate's rise again.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Farewell, Ancestor,\" Yin Wuhen said, kneeling on the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>……\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three of them left the Divine Gate together, heading toward the outskirts of the Elden Lands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because of last night’s battle, the outside was piled high with monster corpses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The hills were covered with them. Xu Zimo took a glance, there were at least ten thousand bodies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the air was thick with a strong, pungent smell of blood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"These monsters are all from the Elden Lands?\" Xu Zimo asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, probably remnants from the Desolate Era,\" the God Emperor explained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, he had personally founded the Divine Gate and knew this place better than anyone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Most of the time, as long as you don’t trespass on their territory and wake them, they remain dormant. I don’t know why they’re so aggressive now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"When you become a Grand Emperor and are invincible in this world, what’s there to fear?\" Xu Zimo said with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That’s not certain. The Nether Blood Sea is no joke,\" the God Emperor shook his head slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as the three were about to continue talking, they suddenly heard faint hissing growls around them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Looks like we’ve got trouble,\" Xu Zimo said with a light laugh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking ahead and behind, he saw a massive group of monsters crawling toward them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Monsters also hid along the high slopes on both sides.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were completely surrounded, there was no way out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Looks like we’re in for a tough fight,\" Ye Feiyang said, eyes narrowing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These monsters were much larger than before, and their auras were powerful, brimming with killing intent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Each of us take a side. How about it?\" Xu Zimo said with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let’s finish this quickly. No need to waste time on them,\" the God Emperor agreed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although there were many monsters, their strength was far too weak for Xu Zimo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He drew his blade, Shadow Tyrant. It trembled slightly as a massive wave of ungodly blade energy formed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Xu Zimo raised Shadow Tyrant above his head, the blade energy surged higher, shooting into the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he slashed down, there was a thunderous boom, the entire space in front of him was wiped out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the God Emperor’s side, he gathered vast spiritforce in his hands, forming a giant phantom hand that reached toward the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It slammed down, crushing all the monsters beneath it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for Ye Feiyang’s side, he was noticeably slower, mainly because he was absorbing the blood of the monsters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Each monster’s death was brutal and miserable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as Xu Zimo and the others were about to finish off the rest and escape, they suddenly heard clapping.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They turned to see the void being torn apart, and three figures stepping out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So there really is someone pulling the strings behind all this,\" the God Emperor said quietly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were two men and one woman. One of the men wore a black vest and had a string of red prayer beads around his neck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had a buzz cut and a scar on his face, looking fierce and brutal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man in the middle wore a white robe, and even his long hair was gray-white.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His aura was ethereal, like a handsome man stepping out of a painting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His robe was elegant, with silk ribbons, and a long pale white sword hung at his waist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His sharp features and gentle smile, along with his outfit, gave him the charm of a graceful youth that could enchant thousands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The woman on the right wore a long, clear green dress like the waters of a lake.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She radiated one feeling, cold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Extremely cold, like ancient ice that could never melt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had delicate features with light makeup.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her curved eyebrows and expressive eyes were beautiful, but filled with icy distance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She wore pure white earrings on both ears, which gently swayed in the breeze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Who are you people?\" Ye Feiyang asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Looks like you’re pretty high up in the Divine Gate,\" the buzz-cut man said, eyes burning with fighting spirit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So this chaos in the Elden Lands was caused by you?\" the God Emperor asked with a frown.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"When did our Divine Gate ever offend you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why so many questions? You’re all just corpses-to-be,\" the buzz-cut man sneered, pulling out two short, blood-red blades from his sleeve.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The blades gleamed with deadly light and radiated a faint glow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why don’t you all fight, and I’ll just stand by and watch?\" Xu Zimo said with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Make it quick,\" the white-haired man in the middle said softly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The God Emperor clashed with the buzz-cut man, and Xu Zimo turned to Ye Feiyang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You handle him. I’ll take the woman.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Feiyang didn’t object and charged toward the white-haired man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>……\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zimo looked toward the woman. He could sense the God Meridian Realm energy surging around her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was as if snowflakes were falling, and the temperature around them dropped sharply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her eyes were full of frost, just one glance felt like it could freeze someone solid.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Miss, may I have your name?\" Xu Zimo asked with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mo Xiaolu, from the Otherworldly Zenith Palace!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a shout, freezing energy swept forth, and the woman in green charged at Xu Zimo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Otherworldly Zenith Palace...\" Xu Zimo muttered softly. \"So this faction has finally shown itself.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing her coming, Xu Zimo shook his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Such a young age, yet such a temper.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he struck with his palm.\u003C\u002Fp>",1106,"2026-06-06T01:06:54.179Z",1,"novelbin.me","782dd829d4e78a7259adea9d440285bc22874351df7d8539dc73ddf0a40e383f","i-really-am-a-villain-chapter-526","i-really-am-a-villain-chapter-524",1822,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-really-am-a-villain-cover.jpg"]
