I Am the Fated Villain
Chapter 109

Chapter 109: I will Repay his Evil; Subtle Change in Attitude.

Yue Mingkong’s thoughts were quickly interrupted by Gu Xian’er.

She recovered slightly, looking at the cold, aloof girl in front of her, her expression gradually became gentle, as if the Big Sister next door was looking at her Little Sister.

Gu Xian’er had very delicate and beautiful facial features, picturesque even. She was tall and had a pair of long legs that any woman would be proud to have. However, they were covered by a cyan skirt, leaving no trace of skin.

She knew that this was most likely done at the behest of Gu Xian’er’s Master. When practising outside, girls are taught to pay more attention and protect themselves. This matter was brought up by Gu Xian’er in Yue Mingkong’s previous life, to which she simply laughed at unceasingly.

“Yue Mingkong, what do you want? Why have you come to see me?”

At this time, Gu Xian’er asked aloud, breaking the awkward silence between the two. After all, judging by the attitude of the other party, they did not seem to harbour ill intent.

Regarding this point, Gu Xian’er perception was very clear, so she put her guard down for a while.

Hearing this, Yue Mingkong’s expression turned soft and gentle, “There’s no need to be so formal. I’m only a few years older than you, so just call me Big sis.”

After speaking, she walked a few steps forward, narrowing the distance between the two.

On the other hand, she is also Gu Changge’s fiancée, and Gu Xian’er is Gu Changge’s cousin.

There is nothing wrong with calling herself Gu Xian’er’s Big Sis.

Gu Xian’er was a little puzzled, and she didn’t understand why Yue Mingkong had such an attitude.

However, she didn’t hit her and there was no grudge between Yue Mingkong and her. The cold attitude of Gu Xian’er eased a little bit, and asked, “Why have you come here?”

She felt strange, unsure of why Yue Mingkong had such a demeanour towards her. Was it out of pity?

Though she didn’t show it, this made the proud Gu Xian’er deeply uncomfortable.

“I heard that you are practising at the Great Elder’s side, and have nothing else to do so I came to visit you.” Yue Mingkong smiled.

Yue Mingkong knew of Gu Xian’er’s vigilant nature and didn’t say more. Otherwise, she would make herself suspect of harbouring ill-intentions.

“Really?” Gu Xian’er didn’t believe it. She looked behind Yue Mingkong carefully, and her beautiful eyebrows arched slightly.

“Is Gu Changge not here?”

She asked, unable to express any emotion. She didn’t see Gu Changge’s nasty face, which made her a little uncomfortable, and she couldn’t help but be a little disappointed.

Yue Mingkong is here, but Gu Changge didn’t come?

How long has it been since he left her on the top of this mountain?

Gu Xian’er also believed that now would be the perfect time to fight Gu Changge, due to her breakthrough to the Conferred Lord Realm.

She was used to fighting with a disadvantage, winning against the strong despite her lower cultivation base. She was so used to it that it was as simple as eating and drinking.

Although Gu Changge is very strong, she is not necessarily that much weaker than him.

As if that wasn’t enough, she is the hope of the Peach Tree Village. After carefully being taught by her respected masters since childhood, she grew to acquire many hidden strengths and techniques.

“He left the mountain gate and went to the Heavenly Dao Ancient City without telling me anything.” Yue Mingkong explained.

If Gu Changge didn’t tell her, she wouldn’t ask.

Based on her understanding of Gu Changge, she believes that he probably went there to plot against someone. At any rate, his stomach is full of bad water, and he must have been thinking about plundering all kinds of opportunities all day.

However, Yue Mingkong was a little puzzled.

When Gu Xian’er mentioned Gu Changge, her face lacked hatred. She was calm… and perhaps even disappointed?

She was able to tell this much from Gu Xian’er’s subtle expression.

Gu Xian’er was indeed a little disappointed because she didn’t see Gu Changge.

‘What happened? Shouldn’t Gu Xian’er hate Gu Changge to the bone?’

Yue Mingkong couldn’t figure it out.

However, she didn’t think much about it, and continued to speak, “Actually, I have heard of the things that year. Gu Changge went too far… But in the future, I will find a way to protect you. Gu Changge is a very dangerous person. You can’t fathom his methods. If you aren’t sure, don’t clash with him…”

This can be regarded as mere persuasive information that she can reveal at present.

As for whether Gu Xian’er believes it or not, that’s her own business.

Gu Xian’er was a little puzzled upon hearing this.

‘Did Yue Mingkong come to her just to talk about this?’

Despite her suspicions, she can clearly tell the kind intent behind Yue Mingkong’s words.

“I see. Thank you for your kindness.”

“But I’m still a little puzzled, aren’t you Gu Changge’s fiancée? Why are you telling me this?” she asked.

“Why not? I can only do my best to make up for the guilt and uneasiness in my heart…” Yue Mingkong said, with a self-deprecating smile on the corner of her mouth, and then quickly recovered.

“I will help him repay the evil he has done.”

Hearing this, Gu Xian’er couldn’t help being stunned and went silent.

She didn’t doubt the truth of Yue Mingkong’s words, but she was a little shocked.

How much does she love him for her to say these kinds of words, even wishing to help him pay back the evil he has done?

While they spoke, she understood that Yue Mingkong had her own pitiful fortune. As she thought of this, Gu Xian’er dropped her guarded and indifferent expression. After all, it wasn’t as though she was blind to the good of others.

Afterwards, Yue Mingkong smiled slightly and took the initiative to chat with Gu Xian’er. Once some topics were opened, they couldn’t stop, especially when she knows what hobbies Gu Xian’er has.

For a while, Gu Xian’er even felt as though she found someone she could trust.

However, during the conversation, Gu Changge was inevitably mentioned.

In particular, Gu Xian’er asked what Gu Changge was up to, which made Yue Mingkong wonder.

‘Before I came to the Heavenly Dao Immortal Palace, what happened between Gu Changge and Gu Xian’er?’

Why is Gu Xian’er’s attitude not as hateful as she thought? Instead, she asked about Gu Changge many times?

Of course, this kind of thing cannot be asked easily. After all, Gu Xian’er was not openly talking about him.

Just as the two of them were chatting and talking, the void in the distance became blurred, and there was a wave of fluctuations.

The Great Elder appeared out of the fluctuation with a displeased expression.

He glanced at Yue Mingkong with a sour look due to her status as Gu Changge’s fiancée.

“Master…”

Gu Xian’er respectfully greeted.

“I greet the Great Elder.” Yue Mingkong also stood up to give her respect. After all, she was trespassing here without permission, which made her visit feel a bit abrupt.

Of course, she still believes in the character of the Great Elder and was confident he will not blame her for this trivial matter.

“Xian’er, you broke through to the Conferred Lord Realm? Very good, much earlier than that guy, Gu Changge.” The Great Elder noticed Gu Xian’er’s Realm, and he couldn’t help but feel a little relieved. The depressed mood he’d been in was now slightly alleviated.

Then he looked at Yue Mingkong in front of him, nodded, and said, “Where is Gu Changge? Where is he?”

Yue Mingkong’s expression is neither humble nor arrogant, “Changge is not in the mountain gate now; he went to Heavenly Dao Ancient City to deal with some things.”

In front of outsiders, she did not directly address Gu Changge by name.

Because this will make it seems the relationship between her and Gu Changge is very unfamiliar, and it will also make Gu Changge feel uncomfortable.

‘Even if Gu Changge is not here, she seems to defend him in these small details.’

Gu Xian’er noticed this, and she couldn’t help but sigh in her heart that she is indeed worthy of being the Empress of the Supreme Immortal Dynasty given her mindfulness with regards to etiquette.

The Great Elder was not surprised when he heard this, and Gu Changge definitely didn’t want to come here to see his face.

It just so happened that he didn’t want to go to Gu Changge’s face either.

However, some things still have to be faced.

[Editor’s Note: Author-san, can’t you use some fewer faces?]

At this moment, the Great Elder pondered for a while, before saying, “Then this old man will go to the Supreme Peak and wait for him to come back.”

As he said this, with a flick of his robe, the void in front of him became blurred as a passage suddenly appeared.

The Great Elder walked in first.

Seeing this, Gu Xian’er naturally didn’t want to stay on the top of the mountain. After secluding herself on the mountain for so long, she began to feel suffocated. Thus, she stepped into it with Yue Mingkong behind her.

Once they stepped in, the channel through space quickly disappeared.

…

[Supreme Peak]

In the palace, Gu Changge was pacing with his hands behind his back. His eyes held a deep, contemplative gaze.

He just returned to the mountain gate from Heavenly Dao Ancient City.

During this time, Yin Mei helped him find a lot of good cultivation resources, and they were being held in a dungeon, so he took the time to go.

Now his true Cultivation Base has also broken through to the Heavenly God Realm instead of the Half-Step Heavenly God Realm before.

The half-step gap was not small by any means.

Under the Heavenly Gods, they are all ants. Such a statement is no exaggeration. Existences such as the Heavenly Gods are powerful enough to overlook even True Gods, casually slapping them to death. Heavenly Gods were truly powerful and boundless.

Gu Changge himself is a Young Supreme, and his methods are endless. If he really erupts, the existence of the average God-King Realm will not be his opponent.

Of course, Gu Changge was naturally very satisfied with this kind of Heaven-Defying Cultivation Speed. It was much faster than spending points in the system.

The Immortal Devouring Demonic Art is worthy of being called a Forbidden Demonic Art, and it is also worthy of the terrifying consequences that it needs to bear.

It can swallow the Origin, Cultivation Base, Primordial Spirit, and more for its own use. And with the corresponding secret technique, it can be refined with the Great Dao Treasured Bottle to ensure that there will be no energy conflicts, confusion, and accidents.

In the end, however, Immortal Devouring Demonic Art can only be regarded as a Cultivation Method, not a real Cultivation Technique, similar to the points added by Gu Changge. Compared to the system and its point system, however, it requires various sources of nourishment for it to prove better than the first.

In addition to helping him improve his Cultivation Base, Yin Mei was also monitoring the Young Master of the White Tiger Clan, Bai Lie’s every move for Gu Changge during this time. He noticed that Bai Lie left the Heavenly Dao Ancient City and went to the Ancient City of the Immeasurable Heaven.

Gu Changge guessed that Ye Ling would be there.

Of course, he didn’t wish to scare the snake.

The Ancient Deity’s Inheritance of Reincarnation is naturally impossible to fall into the hands of a small Ye Ling.

And as the Favoured Son of Heaven, Ye Ling’s benefits and opportunities are definitely not as simple as the Inheritance of Ancient Deity.

Now that Gu Changge is in the dark and Ye Ling is in the light, it is actually very simple to deal with him.

But what Gu Changge considers is that Yue Mingkong, as a reborn person, logically knows more opportunities than Ye Ling.

And she should also know Ye Ling’s future development trajectory.

Foresight is the biggest advantage.

If he left Yue Mingkong alone and went to take care of a little Ye Ling, it can be said that he picked sesame seeds and lost watermelons.

“Yue Mingkong, I only went out for a while, and yet now I can’t seem to find you now that I’ve returned.”

Gu Changge frowned.

Yue Mingkong is not at the Supreme Peak now, but where would she be at this moment?

Did she sneak into the depths of Heavenly Dao Immortal Palace while he left the mountain gate, or did she go to find a way to kill Ye Ling?

He didn’t bother to ask the other disciples.

“It should be to find Gu Xian’er.”

Gu Changge’s narrowed his eyes slightly. This is possible. Gu Xian’er and Yue Mingkong both want to kill him, so there is nothing wrong with the two of them working together.

He didn’t pay attention to this, since the two of them together won’t make any difference.

The recent events of the Immortal Road were his main focus.

“Gu Changge…”

Suddenly, there was a wave of fluctuations from outside the palace, and a spatial channel emerged. The Great Elder’s complexion slightly sank as he walked out of it.

Behind him, Gu Xian’er and Yue Mingkong followed.

“Oh, why did the Great Elder come to my Supreme Peak?” Gu Changge glanced at him and asked calmly.

He had already guessed the intentions of the Great Elder, and it must have something to do with the Descendent of the Heavenly Dao Immortal Palace.

Recently, all the Elders have been discussing this matter, and he naturally knows it.

And it is very likely that Yue Mingkong ran to Gu Xian’er to discuss how to deal with him. It just so happened that the Great Elder’s discussion was over, and the two of them were brought over by him along the way.

He had a thought: today the Great Elder would beg him.

Gu Changge was at ease, not feeling anxious at all. Even if the Great Elder didn’t want to, he would still be eaten to death by him today.

“If this old man comes to the Supreme Peak, does he need your permission?” When the Great Elder saw Gu Changge’s expression, his face was very unsightly, and his anger was faintly revealed.

Obviously, he has been practising Taoism for so many years, and he has already achieved a serene state of mind, but even he has been repeatedly angered by Gu Changge.

This made the Great Elder wonder if there was something wrong with his state of mind.

“Naturally, there is no need. However, if the Great Elder has nothing to do, please go back. It just so happens that I have something to talk about with Mingkong. It would be very inconvenient if outsiders were present.”

Gu Changge said, in a clear and down-to-earth manner, that he was issuing an eviction order to the Great Elder.
