I Am the Fated Villain – Chapter 119

Chapter 119: The Last Flickering Ember; Why Do I Feel a Bit Sick and Weary?

“Why are you so strong? How is this even possible?” Bai Lie spoke desperately as the colour drained off his face.

He was a bigger and taller man than Gu Changge, but now the same Gu Changge lifted him as easily as one would lift a chicken.

Bai Lie was helpless.

His strongest life-saving method, the Golden Talisman, which was supposed to help him during a life and death situation was easily destroyed by Gu Changge, making him completely vulnerable!

‘This Demonic Halberd is definitely not only a Saint-Grade weapon! Only a Supreme-Grade Artefact could manifest such prowess!’

‘Otherwise, it’s impossible for Gu Changge to possess enough power to destroy my Golden Talisman before it even got fully activated.’

“It’s a pity that the Golden Talisman was destroyed.” Gu Changge shook his head. Even though he said that his face didn’t display the slightest trace of regret  

“WH-WHAT IS THIS?!”

Bai Lie suddenly screamed in horror, his expression turned into that of terror as if he had just seen a ghost.

Gu Changge just looked at everything with a blank expression, his deep and serene eyes showing no hint of emotion.

Buzz!

In the blink of an eye, Bai Lie’s chest erupted into a million pieces! Soon after a fascinating flower bloomed and deeply rooted itself in Bai Lie’s chest, a wide array of divine lights materialised and condensed into a Black Dao Bottle.

Immediately after, an immense aura erupted throughout the place, and a hole as dark as the void itself materialised in Gu Changge’s palm. It directly devoured the Immortal Flower that had appeared out of Bai Lie’s chest and consumed it whole, refining it quickly…

As the winds kept howling in the night sky, Gu Changge stood still, slowly opening his eyes with a smile adorned on his face.

“The Origin of the White Tiger Spirit really does live up to its reputation. It contains numerous abilities, indeed worthy of being ranked in the top three.”

“Congratulations Master, on successfully refining the Origin of the White Tiger Spirit.” Yin Mei hurriedly said when she saw him opening his eyes.

Witnessing his abilities with her own eyes made Yin Mei revere and fear Gu Changge even more. She could never even think about betraying him, and today’s events only made her beliefs stronger.

Gu Changge could easily rob her of her life if he wanted to, let alone manipulate her in any way.

Gu Changge slightly turned his face towards the Eight Desolate Demon Halberd in his hand, and smiled, “I can’t let you kill him, leaving more than 370 wounds on him is not allowed.”[1]

[1: The 370 wounds are probably to show that Bai Lie fought a tough battle.]

When he said that, he felt a sense of joy from the Eight Desolate Demon Halberd.

It was finally able to come out, after having been thrown into the weapon space by Gu Changge.

It is a pity that it could only fight with a mere Golden Talisman with a

strong presence sealed inside it. It was difficult for it to reign in its own strength.

Being unable to exert its true powers was more terrifying than the saddest of fates.

And towards Gu Changge, who kept throwing it in the weapon storage space, it felt neglected and wronged, as though it were left out in the cold.

However, Gu Changge casually reassured it before putting it back in the weapon storage space.

“Master, how will we dispose of Bai Lie’s body?”

Yin Mei looked at Bai Lie’s body in front of them and couldn’t help asking.

In the past, she was responsible for processing and destroying the corpses of those Gu Changge used as his cultivation materials.

“Bai Lie’s body can’t be destroyed at will.”

Gu Changge said with a smile. He then closed the formation that covered the inner courtyard. As moonlight fell, the atmosphere became even colder.

Tonight, apart from him and Yin Mei, no one knows what happened here.

As for the corpse of Bai Lie, Gu Changge decided not to destroy it.

He planned to make full use of it instead.

Otherwise, it would be more difficult to push the blame onto Ye Ling.

Any old man with a pair of eyes would be able to tell how Bai Lie died.

At that time, even Ye Ling will want to not get involved and stay away.

Before leaving the courtyard, Gu Changge snorted as Bai Lie’s body disappeared. From there, his body was sent to Gu Changge’s inner world. 

This corpse was useful and to make full use of it, he has to hatch a flawless scheme.

If the scheme proceeded as he wished, Ye Ling would have no choice but to bear the blame and suffering. 

“Yin Mei bids Master farewell.”

Yin Mei watched as Gu Changge left.

Then, she cleaned up all the traces that were left.

She had gotten used to this type of work since some time ago. And then, according to Gu Changge’s order, she waited in the courtyard quietly.

Bai Lie had suddenly disappeared.

After a while, his followers or clansmen would definitely come to question her.

So now, it was time to use her acting skills again.

Unless they do a soul search on her, they can never find what truly transpired here.

Yin Mei wasn’t worried about that at all though. She had never doubted Gu Changge’s arrangements and instructions.

And as Gu Changge said, she is the Holy Maiden of the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox Family, who would dare to search through her soul so easily?

Yin Mei looked calm and relaxed, as she gently combed her nine snow-white foxtails.

She found that Gu Changge was not very interested in her, but rather interested in her tails.

Every time, he can’t help but hold her tails and play with them for a while.

At first, it made her feel very shy and strange, even a bit awkward. 

But she was used to it by now.

As Yin Mei thought, it didn’t take long for her to notice a large number of presences coming from outside straight towards her mansion, with strong auras.

A strange smile appeared at the corner of her mouth, and she quickly returned to normal, acting as though she was resting but was disturbed.

“I greet the Young Miss Yin Mei. May I ask, have you seen the Young Master?”

Soon, Yin Mei saw Bai Lie’s group of followers and the protector who Bai Lie had hidden in his shadow before.

A strange silence ensued.

A middle-aged burly looking man, with obvious characteristics of the White Tiger clan, and a very surging aura was the one who asked.

Seeing him ask, Yin Mei couldn’t help showing a trace of doubt on her face, and said, “Bai Lie did come to me, but didn’t he say he is going to Ye Ling to settle accounts?”

“So, Young Master actually took the initiative to find Ye Ling.” The middle-aged man of the White Tiger clan frowned even harder.

On normal days, when Bai Lie and Yin Mei were in contact, he observed her and knew what Yin Mei’s temperament in front of him was. She was decent and generous, smart and gentle. She had wits and also powerful abilities.

Especially in the pavilion before, he watched Yin Mei help Bai Lie. He was also there to see Ye Ling’s behaviour clearly.

Thus, he didn’t doubt Yin Mei’s words at all.

And based on what he knew of Bai Lie’s temperament, he would indeed go directly to Ye Ling to settle the score.

He had thought that Ye Ling was a bad person from the start, but Bai Lie defended Ye Ling everywhere at all times, so he stopped caring about it. 

Having said that, he had to thank Yin Mei. Without her, he estimated that, by now, Bai Lie would still not have seen Ye Ling’s true colours.

“What happened?”

At this moment, Yin Mei frowned, seemingly confused, and she couldn’t help asking.

“I wouldn’t hide it from Young Miss Yin Mei. The Young Master went to find Ye Ling to settle accounts but has not come back yet. We just came from the residence where Ye Ling usually resides, but we only found some traces of battle.”

“Ye Ling is missing now, and so is the Young Master,” the middle-aged man said, frowning with worry.

He searched the entire ancient city but couldn’t find any trace of his Young Master, so he came to ask Yin Mei about him.

“Bai Lie is missing?” Yin Mei frowned deeper, and said with some worry, “But as the Young Master of the White Tiger clan, Bai Lie should have many life-saving treasures on him, so he should be fine.”

The middle-aged man sighed and cupped hands and said, “That Ye Ling’s methods are very strange, I am afraid that the Young Master will suffer a big loss in his hands. I have bothered the Young Miss Yin Mei enough for tonight. I will leave first.”

Yin Mei nodded and said with some worry, “If you find Bai Lie’s whereabouts, please ask him to contact me.”

“Young Miss Yin Mei doesn’t have to worry. I’ll inform the Young Master as soon as we find him.” The middle-aged man replied, said goodbye, and left with others.

As Bai Lie’s fiancée, Yin Mei’s worries didn’t seem out of the ordinary to him. 

Seeing the middle-aged man leave with his group, Yin Mei’s worry was wiped away in an instant, and she couldn’t help but put up a mocking expression and muttered to herself, ‘When you find Bai Lie, he will already be a corpse.’

“Master is really good at everything. No one can hide anything from him.”

……

When Gu Changge returned to the mansion, Yue Mingkong was waiting for him in the courtyard, wearing a plain gauze. She held her hands together as she leaned on the courtyard pillars.

The night breeze came, the blue silk flew, and the eyes on her flawless fairy-like face were cold as she stared at him without blinking.

She gave a look as if her husband ran out to cheat in the middle of the night and left her alone at home.

Gu Changge chuckled slightly, and said, “Why do you wear such a face? I didn’t go out to cheat on my wife.”

Under the hazy moonlight, Yue Mingkong’s tall and graceful features were accentuated as she stood with a proud silhouette.

“Where did you go?”

Yue Mingkong asked with a frown as she walked over.

She naturally knew that Gu Changge wouldn’t kill Ye Ling at this time.

Most likely, Bai Lie, the young master of the White Tiger clan, was the one who was in trouble right now.

But she still has to ask. After all, it is a matter of great importance.

But why did she feel that Gu Changge carried a strange fragrance?

Gu Changge smiled and said, “Naturally, I went to work. I watched a great show tonight and will return to the mountain gate tomorrow.”

Yue Mingkong stopped in front of him, her small and exquisite nose twitched as her beautiful eyes couldn’t help but reveal a hint of danger.

Seeing this, Gu Changge was a little surprised. 

‘Could it be that her nose is sharp enough to tell where I’ve been?’ 

Gu Changge couldn’t help but think. 

Yin Mei, Holy Maiden of the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox Clan, was the only person he was with. And the fewer people that know about this matter, the better.

Gu Changge naturally didn’t intend to tell Yue Mingkong too.

Moreover, he didn’t know whether Yue Mingkong, as a regressed individual, knew about his relationship with Yin Mei.

“I can smell the scent of Fox Spirit on your body.”

Yue Mingkong glared at him with slightly angry eyes and said in an indifferent voice.

“Fox Spirit?” Gu Changge was taken aback for a moment then laughed.

Speaking of, Yin Mei is indeed from the family of Nine-Tailed Celestial Foxes.

‘However, was Yue Mingkong’s nose really that good?’

‘When I caressed Yin Mei’s tail, I must’ve accidentally gotten its scent on me.’

As he thought of this, Gu Changge grew to be more cautious as Qi surged out to remove the scent from his body.

At present, Yin Mei’s relationship with him cannot be exposed; otherwise, his seamless plan will become flawed.

‘Yue Mingkong, she even remembers the scent of my body so clearly, perhaps she has some hidden taste.’

Gu Changge couldn’t help but smile.

After she finished speaking, Yue Mingkong had already turned around and went straight back to the resting courtyard.

First, she had to wait for Gu Changge for so long. Then, she finds out that he actually ran out to see another woman in the middle of the night. 

Thinking about it, Yue Mingkong was very upset. 

‘Why is there a Fox Spirit next to Gu Changge in this life?’

Of course, she also knew that according to Gu Changge’s personality and temperament, the woman he went to see in the middle of the night was most probably just one of his chess pieces.

However, Yue Mingkong was still quite unhappy.

He has one more woman next to him now, and the thought of it made her release a murderous aura.

Yan Ji, whose strength was at the Great Sacred Realm, is not someone she could touch at the moment.

But who is this Fox Spirit that suddenly appeared?

‘Don’t let this Empress find out who you are.’ Yue Mingkong clenched her hands tightly as her eyes and expression took a chilling appearance.

After that, she returned to her usual indifferent appearance, as the Supreme Empress, in charge of the life and death of countless beings.

Although she was repeatedly suffering losses in the hands of Gu Changge, in front of the others, she was absolutely terrifying and oppressive.

If a regressed person like her really wanted to deal with someone, it would be quite simple to do so.

Furthermore, she is also the crown princess of the Supreme Immortal Dynasty with overwhelming power and authority in her hands.

Yue Mingkong despised Gu Changge, and she will use any means to avenge past life but…

‘Only I can kill Gu Changge, no other women are allowed to be near him.’
