I Am the Fated Villain

Chapter 597: Could it be him behind the scenes? So cruel!

There was silence in the depths of the wilderness. The night was like a curtain, and the environment was pitch black. The birds and beasts within a radius of millions of miles were all prostrated on the ground as they hadn’t recovered from the previous panic.

The terrifying killing intent swept across the sky and the earth was like a vast sea, completely submerging it. Even though the aftermath had disappeared, the killing intent still lingered in every inch of space, causing all living beings who stepped there to collapse into blood mist.

Many young geniuses who participated in this hunting conference were still in shock, looking at the place where the battle just happened. They didn’t know what had happened just now, and the many geniuses who tried to find out, all died tragically and disappeared on the spot.

“The aura just now, could it be Xiaoyao? What has he been through?”

Standing on the top of a mountain, Yu Feiya’s dress fluttered as her slender figure, and a radiance that seemed to flow from her face, making her noble and elegant, exuding an indescribable beauty.

She frowned tightly, staring at the direction of the wave. From the two terrifying auras, she felt the familiar aura of her brother. But Tuoba Xiaoyao had always been low-key and forbearing. If he hadn’t encountered an inevitable situation, he would not have been able to expose his strength.

This made Yu Feiya very puzzled. She couldn’t figure out what kind of crisis would be encountered in this hunting conference.

“Could it be related to the assassination that Xiaoyao said?”

Her heart trembled, she was a little uneasy and hurriedly took out the contact jade talisman to contact the second prince Yu Lie, worrying that something might happen to him.

But soon, the news that the second prince Yu Lie was safe and sound arrived from the contact jade talisman, which made her breathe a sigh of relief and feel at ease.

Tonight was destined to be a sleepless night, whether it was for the young geniuses in the wilderness, or for many powerhouses outside, it was the same. Their hearts were shaking, and it was difficult to calm down.

Tuoba Xiaoyao, the third son of Tuoba Mansion, also became the focus of discussion in a short period of time. Many people were speculating whether he survived or not, and if so, what kind of secrets was he hiding? Why had he been keeping a low profile for more than 20 years?

Many doubts shrouded the heads of the crowd, and they kept looking at the colorful and exquisite tower, waiting for the scene inside to return to normal. But it seemed that because of the huge impact last night, the colorful and exquisite tower could no longer project the scene in the wilderness like before.

While everyone regretted it, they could only give up and were going to wait for the hunting conference to end in three days before proceeding to find out.

During this period, Emperor Yu also ordered many guards to man the entrances of this place and seal off the void, intending to find traces of the scarred man and others. Many people had already seen that the origin of the man with the scar was not simple, he pretended to be a disciple of the Heavenly Sword Sect to mix in.

The many divine powers displayed were even more terrifying, and the killing intent was fierce. The ordinary young genius was definitely not his all-in-one enemy. How could there be no one behind him to guide, they absolutely didn’t believe it.

“Does General Tuoba have a clue? After all, the man with the scar came after your daughter.”

Light and shadow flickered around Emperor Yu’s body, which was very blurry as strands of heaven and earth dragon energy gathered, making his spiritual body more solid.

After all, it was not his true body that had come here, and his spirit body needed to be re-condensed every once in a while.

In his opinion, since Tuoba Yuntian’s daughter encountered this matter, the other party must have had some interaction with her. At that time, Emperor Yu definitely didn’t believe what the scarred man said about avenging his younger brother.

Tuoba Yuntian also fell into deep thought when he heard the words, and began to think about whether he had offended anyone during this period of time. But when he thought about it carefully, he didn’t have any rivals who had such deep hatred.

“I don’t know, I’m sending people to investigate. If the matter is related to Qingyu, then I can only ask her after she comes out.” Tuoba Yuntian shook his head and said.

They had no idea that the man with the scar was actually here for Tuoba Xiaoyao.

In their eyes, it was completely a coincidence that Tuoba Xiaoyao revealed his strength.

While the two were talking, Gu Changge suddenly chuckled and said, “Instead of guessing like this, I think it’s better to wait for the third son of the Tuoba mansion to come out before asking him. He fought against the man with the scar with so many tricks, he should know some details about him.”

“What Young Master Changge said is very true, we can ask Xiaoyao.” Tuoba Yuntian nodded in amazement.

The terrifying battle last night had really shocked him so much that he was still a little bit overwhelmed now. He never thought that his third son, who had always kept a low profile, hid it so deeply.

Gu Changge looked at the depths of the wilderness with strange eyes. After knowing the identity of Tuoba Xiaoyao, he had a plan against Tuoba Xiaoyao in his heart.

But there was one more important point. As a reborn person, Tuoba Xiaoyao might know that Yu Tianzheng would send someone to assassinate the second prince Yu Lie on the day of the hunting conference.

This time, the plan to assassinate the second prince Yu Lie and overthrow the Great Yu Immortal Dynasty should be destroyed by Tuoba Xiaoyao. Before, Gu Changge felt that Emperor Yu was much more cautious than before, and had sent many people to patrol around.

He was a little surprised at the time, but seeing the situation, it should be Tuoba Xiaoyao who revealed the news in advance. Then the second prince, Yu Lie, should also have many life-saving things.

Even if Yu Tianzheng showed up at this time, it would probably be of no avail. All plans would come to naught.

If one thought about it this way, Tuoba Xiaoyao should have had countermeasures long ago. Even if the identity of the Sword Master was exposed now, he still had a way out.

“But he shouldn’t dare to reveal his identity as a reborn individual…”

Gu Changge felt that his previous plan needed to be changed. If the second prince Yu Lie was assassinated, Emperor Yu would definitely doubt him immediately after contacting many things before.

After all, Tuoba Xiaoyao had a big enmity with him. When the news was revealed before, he must have said that this assassination would be the mastermind behind the scenes.

“So the second prince, Yu Lie, cannot die at this time. Otherwise, the Great Yu Immortal Dynasty will become Tuoba Xiaoyao’s protective umbrella and stand on the opposite side of me.”

Gu Changge’s gaze became a little deep as a jade talisman under his sleeve was crushed quietly by him.

Many people who had been deployed in the wilderness before all received the news at this moment, and retreated silently, displaying no signs of abnormality. As for Yu Tianzheng, after Gu Changge summoned him, he didn’t care too much.

If he had any dissatisfaction with this matter, Gu Changge naturally didn’t mind sending him to the afterlife with his own hands. If Yu Tianzheng dared to prevent him from obtaining the Heavenly Sword, then there was no need for him to live.

Yu Tianzheng, who had been hiding in a certain mountain outside the Great Wilderness, received the message at this moment, and his face became cloudy and uncertain. For this assassination, he waited for a long time, if he just gave up like this, how could he be willing?

Although Gu Changge only sent him a message saying that the assassination was canceled, he also knew that it should be because of Tuoba Xiaoyao. But how could Tuoba Xiaoyao stop the person he sent to assassinate the second prince Yu Lie?

“If I give up this opportunity, when will the next time be?” Yu Tianzheng was struggling and entangled but he didn’t dare to disobey Gu Changge’s order.

In the end, he couldn’t help but let out a long sigh and chose to give up.

“Forget it, just wait for the next opportunity.” He was a smart man, knowing that if Gu Changge wanted to kill him now, it would be a piece of cake.

And he also counted on Gu Changge to help him ascend to the throne of the Great Yu. For the next few days, there was peace in the wilderness, and nothing major happened.

The various geniuses and Absolute Heavenly Creatures fought against each other. Even though there was life and death, no accidents happened and naturally, there was no assassination.

This reassured all the ministers outside and they heaved a sigh of relief. Even Emperor Yu, who had been secretly worried, felt that he was too frightened.

“It seems that the Emperor is worrying too much…” A rare smile appeared on Emperor Yu’s face, and he planned to wait for the hunting conference to be successfully concluded tomorrow before returning to the imperial capital.

In the imperial capital, no assassin would dare to act recklessly. As for what Yu Feiya said before, he did not continue to take it to heart.

“His Majesty Emperor Yu seems to have been worried about something?” At this time, Gu Changge seemed to have noticed the change in the expression on Emperor Yu’s face and smiled slightly.

“That’s right, I heard rumors before that there would be assassins who would endanger Yu Lie’s safety, so I couldn’t help being a little worried.” After hearing the words, Emperor Yu had nothing to hide and replied with a smile.

However, he didn’t say anything after that. At that time, Yu Feiya also said that Gu Changge was behind the assassination. How dare he say this in front of Gu Changge? Wasn’t this deliberately stirring up hatred between the two?

“Oh, who would assassinate the second prince at such a time?” Gu Changge said in surprise.

Emperor Yu shook his head and said, “I don’t know, but now it seems that there must be something wrong with the rumors, which made me worry too much.”

Gu Changge looked into the distance, his sleeves were fluttering, and his white clothes were whiter than snow, clean and unstained with a refined meaning. He smiled and said, “Your Majesty Emperor Yu, don’t relax, after all, there is still one day left in the hunting conference. What if those assassins choose to fight on the last day?”

Emperor Yu nodded in agreement and said, “Young Master Changge’s words are very true, and this Emperor is indeed unrelenting.”

After the hunting conference was over, he wanted to ask Yu Feiya carefully why she said that Gu Changge would send someone to assassinate Yu Lie.

In his opinion, this was completely impossible. From the very beginning, he felt that Gu Changge had no reason to do so.

In the depths of the wilderness existed a ruin, all the palaces and pavilions were incomplete as they had collapsed. The mountains stretched and were extremely tall. But the sacred mountain was incomplete, covered with fist-thick vines and various ancient traces, informing others of the prosperity of this place.

Tuoba Xiaoyao had already joined his older sister Tuoba Qiongling, and behind them was his younger sister Tuoba Qingyu.

After dealing with the assassin that night, he fled with Tuoba Qingyu all the way and finally got away from that area. Although the matter of the assassin was resolved, he himself was not feeling well. The embryo of the Heavenly Sword suffered a slight backlash.

That killing intent was really terrifying, it could be called destroying the world. It could make countless living beings float on the earth, and the blood flow into rivers.

Tuoba Xiaoyao’s internal organs were almost burst open, and his bones were almost broken. If it hadn’t been for the Heavenly Sword Fetus saving his life at a critical moment, he might have already been turned into ashes and followed in the footsteps of his previous life.

Through this incident, he also clearly understood how terrifying Gu Changge was now. One must know that it was just a wisp of his killing intent, not the true body coming here.

“A true Enlightened being is by no means his opponent. If he attacks me, I will have no chance of survival. Even if it is the current Emperor Yu, if he uses the Emperor’s weapon with all his strength, he may not be his opponent.”

After Tuoba Xiaoyao recovered from his injuries, he took his younger sister Tuoba Qingyu to find his second sister, worried that she would encounter the same situation as Tuoba Qingyu.

On the way, Tuoba Qingyu was naturally very curious about him and wanted to know how her third brother suddenly changed drastically.

When she was most desperate and helpless, it was the third brother who came to her like a sword god and rescued her from the man with the scar. This made her change her previous impression of Tuoba Xiaoyao.

In the past, he was dull and reticent, but he was just being low-key and calm, keeping a low profile. Moreover, his third brother’s strength was so powerful, it was estimated that the current second prince Yu Lie, the future successor to the throne, might not be able to defeat him.

“I know you are very confused now, but you can rest assured, I am still me, I have always been me, and this has never changed.” Tuoba Xiaoyao opened his mouth and explained to the second and fourth sister behind him.

“Have you been hiding all these years?” His second sister Tuoba Qiongling’s eyes had complicated feeling, both pleased and bitter.

Tuoba Xiaoyao had kept it a secret from them for so long until now he chose to expose it.

“I didn’t tell you this, in fact, it was to protect you.” Tuoba Xiaoyao sighed, knowing what they were thinking, but it was also a helpless thing.

While speaking, he raised his head and glanced at the sky. He didn’t feel the aura of the colorful and exquisite tower, so he was somewhat relieved. The battle that night damaged this treasure, and it was no longer possible to see the scene in the wilderness.

So at this time, he might as well tell the two of them something.

“For our safety?” Tuoba Qingyu was puzzled.

“I have something that will bring disaster and I cannot expose it until I am strong enough to protect all of you.” Tuoba Xiaoyao sighed.

His words reminded Tuoba Qingyu of the terrifying sword energy that night, and it was that sword energy that saved the two of them. She was a little silent, a little understanding of Tuoba Xiaoyao’s intentions.

“Then what about the current you?” The second sister Tuoba Qiongling thought of a lot in an instant, and her face became serious.

Tuoba Xiaoyao nodded, and his expression gradually became more cautious, “So from now on, you must be careful about Gu Changge! He is extremely dangerous, far more terrifying than what you have learned on the surface.”

He had to warn the two of them.

On the surface, Gu Changge was extraordinary and refined, like an Immortal who was not stained with dust. It was really difficult to associate it with cruelty, indifference, and heartlessness.

Although the two of them couldn’t understand why Tuoba Xiaoyao would say that, they still nodded in agreement with serious faces.

“I’m sorry, the third brother, it’s all my fault, if it wasn’t for saving me, you wouldn’t have exposed yourself.” Tuoba Qingyu’s expression became a little guilty.

Tuoba Xiaoyao shook his head and explained, “Actually, you are not to blame for this matter. The man with the scar came here for me. You are just a means of probing. He wanted to see if I could save you. Thus exposing me.”

He saw things through. The man with the scar was definitely a seed figure cultivated by a certain assassin organization. His strength was terrifying and he could hunt and kill young supremes.

How could Tuoba Qingyu easily provoke such a person?

It was just that this incident made him even more cautious. In his previous life, he didn’t know that Gu Changge still controlled such an assassin organization.

“Was he after you?” Tuoba Qingyu was even more puzzled. “You said that man just wanted to test you, that’s why he did something to Fourth Sister?”

“This is really ruthless.” Tuoba Qiongling figured it out immediately, with a faintly ugly and a little bit of fear on her face.

If the test was wrong, wouldn’t Tuoba Qingyu die there that night? How ruthless was this to attack a person who had no grudges?

And judging from Tuoba Xiaoyao’s words, that person was probably Gu Changge.
