I Am the Fated Villain
Chapter Summary
The Immortal Emperor from the foreign realm concealed their true appearance,maintaining an air of mystery and attempting to suppress their fluctuations to avoid disturbing the current environment of the Mountain and Sea Real World. As the collective will of all ethnic groups spread throughout the realm,a magnificent surge of power filled the air,with the essence of the Dao cascading like a torrent toward the location of the Heaven-Slaying Alliance. In this moment,it appeared that only those of t...
Chapter 958: :How much dreamy I feel,today,I’ll establish a Heaven Slaying Alliance“Gu…Uncle Gu?
”The young man who appeared out of thin air caused the young man following the elderly gentleman to widen his eyes and nearly shout in disbelief.
It all seemed surreal,and he struggled to accept the scene before him.
How could Uncle Gu from Green Mountain Village be here?
The whole situation felt too fantastical and unbelievable.
“Is that him?
”The old man in the Dao robe couldn’t help but be astonished,recognizing a familiar figure.
He had encountered this person in Green Mountain Village,leaving a lasting impression on him.
They were once on familiar terms.
Upon closer inspection,he felt a shiver down his spine.
He hadn’t anticipated meeting again under these circumstances.
“Master?
”“Gu Changge?
”Others also reacted,their exclamations filling the air,each calling out a different name.
Clearly,they all recognized Gu Changge.
Even those who had just regained consciousness had caught wind of the events of recent years.
They were aware of Gu Changge’s background and deeds,prompting caution and vigilance.
In the eyes of the world,Gu Changge had committed both virtuous and villainous acts.
Some vilified him as a demonic force that brought harm to the heavens,while others revered him as a deity.
“This fiend…”Cen Shuang’s expression turned icy,her hatred evident as she gritted her teeth and clenched her jade hand.
To her,Gu Changge was still the murderer of her father,oblivious to the news regarding her father and the former Immortal Palace associates.
Even Brother Qingfeng,who had ascended to the Nine Heavens,remained unaccounted for.
This led Cen Shuang to question whether Gu Changge had been responsible for Brother Qingfeng’s disappearance.
Uncle Yi’s expression was a mix of emotions as he grappled with what to call Gu Changge.
However,the members of the Immortal Palace harbored innate hostility towards Gu Changge,their unease palpable.
This was the demon who laid waste to the Immortal Palace in the beginning,leading them to their current plight.
“Demon Lord…”Hearing everyone refer to Gu Changge in such a manner,Wang Xiaoniu was utterly dumbfounded,shocked to the core.
How could he have fathomed that his Uncle Gu’s influence stretched so far,to such staggering extents?
Was he truly the foremost figure in the Mountain and Sea Real World,perhaps even beyond?
He had heard tales of the Demon Lord not just once but from the lips of fellow cultivators.
Yet,to think that such a figure,feared throughout the heavens,had resided in his home and been addressed as Uncle Gu?
At that moment,Wang Xiaoniu felt a whirlwind of confusion sweep over him,leaving him dizzy and disoriented.
“This…”The old man in the robe couldn’t suppress a chuckle.
Reflecting on it,it seemed that everything had its own inevitability.
“Greetings,my lord…”Ao Teng and Ao Ling addressed Gu Changge naturally,referring to him as’my lord’.
After all,during their era,that was how everyone addressed Gu Changge.
Though Ming had never personally encountered Gu Changge,he had gleaned much from the accounts of Ao Teng and Ao Ling,particularly after the war.
Therefore,he maintained a respectful demeanor towards Gu Changge,who had safeguarded the Mountain and Sea True Realm.
“Bowing slightly,he uttered,”Greetings,my lord.
”Upon seeing Gu Changge appear,the ancestor of the Gu family visibly relaxed.
He had been genuinely concerned that Gu Changge might depart from this place,abandoning the entire realm of the mountains and seas.
“You’ve finally arrived.
”He spoke,refraining from inquiring about Changge’s whereabouts.
Gu Changge nodded slightly,his gaze sweeping through the crowd,lingering mainly on Old Man Ming and the Daoist-robed elder.
With the inclusion of the ancestor of the Gu family,there were now three ancient cultivators in the Mountain and Sea Real World.
Ming had entered the threshold of the Dao realm but had yet to overcome the first decline.
The old man,Wang Xiaoniu’s master,was halfway into the Dao realm,having merely brushed against its threshold without truly stepping into it.
These three stood as the most formidable powerhouses in the current realm.
The remaining individuals varied in their cultivation levels.
Most had surpassed the Immortal King tier,reaching the level of quasi-Immortal Emperor,but they were still far from attaining the status of Immortal Emperor.
These characters were now gradually revealing themselves;in the past,their presence might have remained concealed.
However,two immortal figures remained shrouded in mist and fragmented by time.
One hailed from a foreign realm,while the other was referred to as Uncle Yi by Cen Shuang.
The Immortal Emperor from the foreign realm concealed their true appearance,maintaining an air of mystery and attempting to suppress their fluctuations to avoid disturbing the current environment of the Mountain and Sea Real World.
If the two Immortal Emperors were to encounter and clash in their Daoist paths,they could cause the space around them to warp and fracture,potentially disrupting the world’s equilibrium and plunging ancient history into turmoil.
Unlike the ancient cultivators of the Dao realm,they couldn’t seamlessly merge their past,future,and present selves without disrupting causality.
“So,do you intend to reunite?
”The ancestor of the Gu family wasted no time,opting to directly inquire about Changge’s intentions.
Compared to others,he was more inclined to follow Gu Changge’s lead.
In his view,during his prime,Gu Changge stood on par with the Gu family’s distant ancestor,a former sage who had treated the highest peaks of the Dao.
His perspective and outlook naturally diverged from those of ordinary individuals.
“Now that the variable has emerged,it seems it’s time to reunite once more.
Perhaps,in a few years,genuine change might occur,”Gu Changge remarked with a slight smile,his gaze shifting to Ni Chen.
Even Gu Changge acknowledged Ni Chen as a variable,dispelling any lingering doubts among the group.
They began contemplating the ramifications of a grand reunion,recognizing the immense stakes involved.
Someone would inevitably bear the weight of this immense fortune and its accompanying consequences.
Failure could result in collapse,death,and the entanglement of all heavenly races—a risky gamble.
The mountain and sea realms’ethnic groups and factions would place their bets on Ni Chen’s variable existence,as they saw no other viable option.
If they refrained,they would be left with little choice.
In the face of impending catastrophe,failure to act would spell doom for all,consigning them to oblivion amidst chaos and the passage of time.
“Indeed,a decision must be made,”the Gu family ancestor concurred,contemplating whether to heed Gu Changge’s proposal and establish the Heaven Slaying Alliance.
The emergence of this variable presented a timely opportunity.
“What are your thoughts?
”Gu Changge casually inquired of the others.
Old Ming represented numerous figures from the era of primordial myths,while Ao Teng,Ao Ling,and others listened attentively.
The Immortal Palace survivors rallied behind Uncle Yi,as recounted by Cen Shuang.
Meanwhile,other figures from disparate eras loosely followed Wang Xiaoniu’s master.
The foreign realm adhered to the words of their enigmatic Immortal Emperor.
In essence,the current mountain and sea realm was divided into five factions,all present at this gathering.
“If this calamity can be averted,we shall follow your lead,”Ming declared after brief consideration.
He led the charge,with Ao Teng,Ao Ling,and others falling in line,unaffected by the Dark Age and unwavering in their faith in Gu Changge’s authority.
Gu Changge nodded in acknowledgment before his gaze flicked to the young woman standing behind Ming.
However,he quickly averted his eyes.
He had encountered her,Gu Xian’er’s sister Shen Xian’er,during his time in the Heavenly Lan Realm.
Despite their differing personalities,their eyebrows bore a striking resemblance.
When standing in silence,they could easily be mistaken for the same person.
However,Gu Xian’er was far from quiet;even when she wore a serene expression,it was a facade.
This reminded Gu Changge of certain matters concerning Gu Xian’er,prompting him to prepare a gift for her.
With Ming,an enigmatic figure,in agreement,the others followed suit without hesitation.
Even the Immortal Palace survivors,who harbored animosity towards Gu Changge,concurred and expressed willingness to unite.
Faced with such a dire catastrophe,personal grievances could be set aside,if only temporarily.
“Now that all of you have consented,matters are considerably more favorable,and I will endeavor to support his growth,”Gu Changge affirmed calmly.
”I hope that in the end,he won’t disappoint us.
”Upon hearing this,everyone,including the Gu family ancestor,turned their gaze to Ni Chen,taken aback by Gu Changge’s statement.
Was this a desperate attempt to place all hopes on Ni Chen?
It appeared that even Gu Changge believed that this variable,Ni Chen,held the potential to enact change in the future.
Ni Chen was stunned.
He hadn’t anticipated Gu Changge’s appearance at this crucial moment,believing like everyone else that Gu Changge had departed from the mountain and sea realm.
In Gu Changge’s presence,he always felt a sense of unease,as if his hidden secrets would be laid bare.
However,Gu Changge’s full support for his growth came as a surprise.
Initially,Ni Chen had sought out Wang Ziji in the upper realm,only to be trapped outside the Human Ancestor Hall by Gu Changge,losing face and a significant portion of his lifespan.
Yet now,Gu Changge seemed unconcerned about that incident,focusing instead on the broader interests of the mountain and sea realm.
It was a revelation for Ni Chen.
He had expected someone like Gu Changge to be ruthless,indifferent to the fate of the mountain and sea realm.
In the end,even this devil was willing to support his growth.
He couldn’t shake the surreal feeling in his heart,finding it somewhat absurd.
If Gu Changge and the others knew the truth of the matter,he wondered how they would react.
In the end,the mountain and sea realm would merely serve as his wedding attire and the tools for his resurrected relatives.
“The juniors will certainly strive to meet Master’s and your expectations,giving their all to confront the catastrophe,”Ni Chen declared,his expression resolute as he clasped his hands together.
…The arrival of Gu Changge and the Gu family ancestor effectively outlined the entire situation of the current mountain and sea realm.
All factions and ethnic groups received this news.
Many universes and ancient circles within the mountain and sea realm embraced the idea of unity.
The foreign realm,Immortal Palace survivors,and ethnic groups from the era of primordial myths had already reached a consensus,and the timing was ripe for change.
Thus,the landscape of the Mountain and Sea Real World was set to undergo a transformation.
The Heavenly Court and the divine kingdom were overturned and rebuilt,with Gu Changge intending to establish the Heaven-Slaying Alliance.
On that day,thunder cracked across the sky,the void shimmered,and the heavens reverberated with a deafening roar,signaling a monumental shift.
As the collective will of all ethnic groups spread throughout the realm,a magnificent surge of power filled the air,with the essence of the Dao cascading like a torrent toward the location of the Heaven-Slaying Alliance.
Dressed in a black robe with a crown atop his head,Gu Changge stood with quiet authority before the assembly.
The turbulent light of the sky enveloped the universe,as if unseen hands were reshaping the cosmos.
It was an awe-inspiring and terrifying display of collective will,resonating deeply with every sect and ethnic group.
“Today,I established the Heaven-Slaying Alliance,”Gu Changge declared,his voice gentle yet commanding,reaching the ears of every being as if echoing through the heavens.
Suddenly,a thunderous roar reverberated from the depths of nothingness,slicing through the very fabric of existence.
The heavens and earth seemed to protest,collapsing in on themselves as endless fissures tore through reality.
From a distant,unknown place,the immense dread of the underworld manifested itself.
In this moment,it appeared as though every being,regardless of their nature,beheld a pair of eyes descending from the zenith.
These eyes seemed to transcend time itself,spanning eternity and straddling the past,present,and future,as they plummeted from the celestial depths.
Yet,their terror exceeded even that;they originated from beyond the shattered world’s boundaries.
What lay beyond?
No creature nor cultivator could articulate it,for the moment they gazed upon these eyes,their very souls seemed to wither,frozen in existence.
Even the immortal kings found themselves ensnared,trapped within a realm where time and space stood eternally still!
In this moment,it appeared that only those of the Dao realm could break free from this restraint,while all others remained imprisoned,powerless to move.
