I Truly Am The Villian

Chapter 74: Chapter 74 Clash

Watching the endless Sword Qi slash across, and Sword Intent rip through the silent sky with an irresistible force, exploding in all directions.

Xu Ren’s heart seemed to stop beating, almost engulfed in suffocation that came from the depths of death.

“I surrender,” when the sky was filled with swarming Sword Qi and that magnificent spectacle unfolded as if eclipsing the sun, Xu Ren almost burst a vein and roared those words.

After yelling out his surrender, Xu Ren seemed to have used up all of his strength, collapsing weakly onto the ground.

And those Sword Qi stopped just two centimeters away from his nose tip.

But because the Sword Qi was too immense, a few strands still slashed onto Xu Ren.

He screamed in shock, his body blown away by the Sword Qi, and his originally white clothes were instantly stained with blood in mid-air.

The crowd’s gaze followed Xu Ren as he tumbled through the air, hitting the ground hard and kicking up clouds of dust.

He lay motionless, his life hanging by a thread.

………

Yan Buhui on the Combat Stage also cracked a smile, then his body could no longer hold up and he collapsed.

Noise started erupting around the Combat Stage, people with stunned expressions muttering to themselves, “That newcomer… won!”

It seemed no one could believe it; what looked like a sure defeat suddenly turned into a counter-kill.

Yan Buhui lay unconscious on the Combat Stage, but at this moment, not a single Disciple dared to approach him.

Of course, there were also many who wanted to help Yan Buhui, conveniently offering a favor.

Based on the potential Yan Buhui had shown, his future achievements would definitely not be low.

But Shao Xingyu had already warned that anyone who dared to come into contact with Yan Buhui would be considered his enemy.

Therefore, the Outer Sect Disciples could only sigh a few times before silently leaving.

………

Xu Zimei, accompanied by Xiao Guizi, went up to check on Yan Buhui’s condition.

Although his injuries were severe, he would not die immediately, but if prompt treatment was not provided, he could be in danger.

“Gentlemen, some things are better left alone,” from the other side of the Combat Stage, Huang Tianxie in white robes, slowly approached.

“Beat it,” Xiao Guizi said, frowning without even sparing a glance.

After all, with Xu Zimei backing him, he didn’t need to be afraid.

“Gentlemen, I am a friend of Shao Xingyu, grandson of the Great Elder from your True Martial Holy Sect,” Huang Tianxie’s gaze sharpened as he spoke to Xiao Guizi, “You will pay for what you just said.”

“Shao Xingyu counts for nothing,” Xu Zimei raised his head slightly, dismissively saying, “This is the True Martial Holy Sect, not your little piece of land in Northwest City.

You’d best mind your behavior, or else I wouldn’t mind making you end up like him.”

Xu Zimei pointed to Xu Ren laying beside them, unconscious, and spoke indifferently.

“You,” Huang Tianxie’s expression changed as he stared at Xu Zimei.

He wasn’t without sense either; since Shao Xingyu’s name didn’t intimidate the other party, it was likely that the other’s backing was not weak either.

“May I know how to address you two gentlemen?”

“You’re not worthy of knowing,” Xu Zimei replied calmly, then signaled to an Outer Sect Elder nearby and left with Xiao Guizi.

The Outer Sect Elder caught the hint and hurriedly took Yan Buhui, who was seriously injured, away for treatment.

Huang Tianxie watched Xu Zimei’s retreating figure, his expression changing unpredictably, and ultimately let out a heavy snort of contempt.

………

By noon the next day, Shao Xingyu had arrived at Goose Southern Peak to personally seek out Xu Zimei.

About Shao Xingyu, he was two years older than Xu Zimei and had started his cultivation two years earlier.

It was said that when he was born, he was tested and found to have king-level aptitude, which his grandfather, the Great Elder, expended a great deal of energy to elevate to emperor level.

Among the younger generation of the True Martial Holy Sect, he was also considered a standout.

Perhaps it was because of the conflict between the Great Elder and Xu Qingshan that Xu Zimei and Shao Xingyu often fought and brawled from a young age.

……

In the courtyard of Goose Southern Peak, Xu Zimei lay on a lounge chair, basking in the sunlight without a care in the world.

Shao Xingyu stood by, clad in a purple robe, and stared intently as he said, “The Yan Buhui incident has nothing to do with you.”

“How I do things does not require your instruction,” Xu Zimei replied calmly.

“Even if you get involved, it will be to no avail. I think I still have the capability to expel an Outer Sect Disciple from the sect,” replied Shao Xingyu, not giving an inch.

“Don’t forget, the helmsman of this sect still bears the name Xu,” Xu Zimei said with a smile: “Helping others target disciples of one’s own sect, you really are impressive.

While the matter may not seem substantial, it is definitely not minor either, and who knows what would happen if I were to file a complaint?”

“Do you think I would expose myself personally?” Shao Xingyu coolly responded.

“Then you better be careful,” Xu Zimei pointed at his own eyes and chuckled, “because I’m watching!”

“Do you really want to get involved for an Outer Sect Disciple you don’t even know?” After a moment of silence, Shao Xingyu asked again.

“Beat it. Don’t think you’re all that,” Xu Zimei said disdainfully, “you’re like a jumpy grasshopper that I could easily squash if I wanted to.”

Shao Xingyu’s face alternated between shades of anger and amusement, as if he was laughing out of spite. “Fine, we shall see,” he said.

Watching Shao Xingyu leave in a fury, Xu Zimei shook his head to himself.

There were indeed some people he did not take seriously—not out of arrogance, but merely because they lived in different worlds.

Having lived a life once over, he had seen a far more vast universe and too many different scenes.

Later, Xu Zimei called over Xiao Guizi and instructed, “Go to Zhouque City and bring Shili Changkong here,

lie in wait and ambush Huang Tianxie on his way back to Northwest City.”

“Brother, do you want to kill him?” Xiao Guizi asked in astonishment.

“No, the Huang Family of Northwest City may not be a match for our True Martial Holy Sect, but they are not weak. As the second son of the Huang Family, how could he possibly travel without protection?” Xu Zimei said with a smile: “Killing him with just an Esteem Vein Realm cultivator isn’t enough. I just want to give him a warning,

that this world can be very dangerous indeed.”

Xiao Guizi nodded. Sometimes he really didn’t understand Xu Zimei’s thoughts, but still, he left the True Martial Holy Sect that day.

………

In the following days, Xu Zimei’s life returned to normal, refining Tyrant Shadow by day at the Thunder Sea and absorbing the Essence of the Moon at night.

Occasionally he would also visualize and strategize his Cultivation Technique.

The days of departing for the Holy Spring Sect drew closer, and on that day, Xu Zimei was resting in the courtyard.

Chun Xiao, the maidservant, suddenly came to report that someone from Miaoliu Peak was looking for him.

Miaoliu Peak was where the Sixth Elder resided, and Xu Zimei instantly thought of Baili Xiao.

When the visitor from Miaoliu Peak entered, Xu Zimei saw it was indeed the sisters Xue Qianxue and Xue Mengmeng.
