I Truly Am The Villian

"It doesn't matter," Xu Zimei said.

"You should hurry and make yourself stronger."

"We'd better leave soon, or else the others will catch up," Shu Long urged.

The three of them stepped from the shore onto this overgrown land.

As soon as they entered, it seemed as if they were sensed, and a rustling sound was heard.

The three stopped and looked around.

In the overgrown area, a dense swarm of insects crawled out.

The insects were tiny, only the size of a thumbnail, all in a dark green color, emitting a faint glow.

With a quick glance, there were tens of thousands of these insects, too many to count.

"They're Corpse Worms," Wu Zhaodi said solemnly.

Corpse Worms are very powerful insects; they don't belong to living organisms but are formed by a special force.

Only when powerful creatures die will Corpse Worms form around their corpses, devouring the body to strengthen themselves.

But at this moment, seeing so many Corpse Worms, even Xu Zimei felt some sentiment.

Just how powerful must the corpse be to summon these Corpse Worms.

Corpse Worms fear neither Blazing Flame nor Ice.

They are not only numerous but also infiltrating everywhere, very difficult to deal with.

As these Corpse Worms, like a tide, closed in and surrounded everyone, footsteps also came from not far away.

It was Shu Hai and people from other factions who arrived.

"Longer?" Shu Hai asked with some surprise.

"Where is the Garden Owner?"

"Dead," Shu Long replied truthfully.

"Dead?" Everyone was shocked, as Gongsun Muyu was among the top in strength in the group.

"Killed by these Corpse Worms," Shu Long explained, holding back some information.

Only then did people start to observe the Corpse Worms gradually closing in, Qi Kuangyin said, "It must be the corpse of the Ancestral Dragon to attract so many Corpse Worms."

"Any way to deal with these Corpse Worms?" Shu Hai asked.

"They fear life," Qi Kuangyin said.

"Anything with life-type pills should be taken out."

As his words fell, a group of people in black robes stood up.

Since their appearance, they had remained silent, without speaking a word.

At this moment, they seemed prepared, bringing out an oil lamp from somewhere.

The oil lamp was lit, emitting a weak green glow, although faint, its life aura was noticeable.

The oil lamp was like a beacon, guiding the group in black robes forward.

They walked onto the overgrown land, with the beacon leading the way, all Corpse Worms unconsciously making way for them.

Seeing this scene, others also glanced sideways, but the bandit brothers coldly snorted.

Looking at the distance from the coastline to the Dragon Bone, it was merely a few hundred meters.

If fast enough, it would take about a minute to traverse, the boss snorted coldly, "What life aura, a bunch of cowards.

However many Corpse Worms dare to block the way, we brothers will kill them."

As their words fell, their figures quickly ran toward the Dragon Bone's location.

Don't be fooled by their arrogance; their strength was truly formidable, and their coordination was impeccable.

Their speed, movements were almost identical, like twin brothers, intuitively connected.

One was Blazing Flame, the other was Frost, with the might of alternating ice and fire enveloping around.

The Corpse Worms along the way were all annihilated; the two reveled in their success for a while, almost charging into the Dragon Bone's position.

But there, the Corpse Worms multiplied, making it increasingly difficult for them, hindering their progress.

Some Corpse Worms had already silently crawled upon their bodies.

"Help us," the bandit brothers shouted frantically.

However, everyone merely showed indifference, with no one stepping in to help.

"Longer, come to my side," Shu Hai said from nearby.

He took out a small bottle from his Storage Ring, which contained a green liquid as well.

"This is saliva from the Dragon Clan, originally obtained from the Dragon of Life, meant to save lives at critical moments," Shu Hai said regrettably.

"It seems now it has to be used."

He poured out the saliva and began applying it on several members of the Shu Family.

"Longer, what are you standing there for?" Shu Hai shouted at Shu Long, who was standing with Xu Zimei.

"Dad, I'll go in with them," Shu Long hesitated, then said.

"What nonsense is this? This is a matter of life and death," Shu Hai scolded.

"We'll protect his safety, Family Head Shu needn't worry," Xu Zimei said.

When it comes to Life Force, who can compare to him?

With a casual gesture, Xu Zimei unleashed a surge of potent Life Force.

This Life Force enveloped the three of them as well.

Shu Long hesitated for a moment, then ran lightly to Shu Hai and said, "Father, listen to me, leave early."

"What does Second Brother mean?" Shu Hai coldly smiled from the side.

"Want to take the inheritance alone?"

Shu Long glared at him, not bothering to argue.

Just said, "Father, we cannot get the inheritance here, there are strong ones present."

After saying that, Shu Long left.

Having seen Xu Zimei's strength earlier, erasing Gongsun Muyu effortlessly, he knew that with Xu Zimei here, others basically had no chance.

Hearing Shu Long's words, others paid no heed, but Shu Hai indeed contemplated for a moment.

He knew, his son would definitely not deceive him.

"Father, forget him, let's go in," Shu Hu said from the side.

"Let's see the situation," Shu Hai hesitated.

"Ancestral Dragon's inheritance, if acquired, would further advance the Shu Family's power," Shu Hu said unwillingly.

"If you don't go, then I'll go in myself."

After saying this, Shu Hu quickly ran toward the Dragon Bone.

He had waited for this opportunity long enough; no one could stop him, for this was a chance to reach the heights.

Shu Hai wanted to stop him but ended up only sighing deeply.

...

Xu Zimei and the others entered the Dragon Bone and discovered it was another world inside.

Underneath the Dragon Bone, there was a pitch-dark cave.

Its end led to an unknown location, completely shrouded in darkness.

The group of people in black robes had vanished; Xu Zimei slightly frowned.

Looking at the few people, he said, "There's a strong corrosive aura in the cave, you'd better stay outside."

"Isn't there you to protect us?" Wu Zhaodi said smilingly.

"I didn't say I'd protect you," Xu Zimei shrugged, replying.

"Shu Long, I might be able to protect."

"I'm going to kill Qi Kuangyin, no need for your protection," Wu Zhaodi said, sulking.
