The Hero of a Cool Novel? I, the Villain, Will Kill You!

112: God is coming? And then he’s gone!Mu Bingxuan and Xuan Yuan Shuangyin exchanged glances, both catching a hint of surprise in each other’s eyes.

Although the Hongmeng Divine Kingdom, Piaomiao Forbidden Zone, and Taboo Wang Family were all located on Grandmist Island, they had always maintained their respective territories and refrained from interfering with each other.

Such a large-scale deployment of Divine Guards was truly rare.

”There’s likely a change; we must quickly return to the Forbidden Zone and report to Sister Shui Xi!”

With minds in sync, their figures suddenly accelerated, transforming into two streaks of light, and swept directly towards the Piaomiao Forbidden Zone.

Time fragments flowed, rewinding to a short while ago.

Several Divine Guards, clad in armor, wore worried expressions.

They whispered, ”Senior, isn’t it inappropriate to go to the Lower Realm without the Empress’s decree?”

The leader, Qi Kang, however, dismissed it with a wave of his hand:

”The Empress only said not to trespass below the Nine Heavens, but she didn’t forbid stepping into the River of Time.”

”Proceed to the Profound Abyss Ancient Realm without worry. If anything goes wrong, this General will bear full responsibility.”

As his voice fell, Qi Kang stepped into the Time fragments without hesitation.

The Divine Guards behind him exchanged glances. Though uneasy, no one dared to defy him, and they could only follow closely.

After all, behind this General Qi stood a God King.

Any slight defiance would likely cost them their lives.

”Crack, crack, crack...”

The Time fragments slowly closed, and the figures from the Hongmeng Divine Kingdom quietly vanished into the River of Time.

Profound Abyss Ancient Realm, a few days later.

On a majestic mountain peak, Wang Qing’s black and gold robe fluttered in the wind, his silver-white hair gently swaying.

He overlooked the nearly hundred Hongmeng Divine Guards descending into the Shenyou Dojo, a playful glint in his eyes.

”Whoosh...”

A gentle breeze swept by, and the Time Grinding Disc appeared in Wang Qing’s palm.

He lightly flicked his fingertips, and a blurry scene emerged in the Void Realm.

After a long while, the interest in his eyes grew deeper.

”The Hongmeng Divine Kingdom’s General You... no wonder he can command the Hongmeng Li Tian Array.”

As he murmured to himself, Wang Qing’s lips curved into a half-smile, a plan already brewing in his mind.

Perhaps he could use this newly arrived General to probe Youming Chan’s true strength.

And, incidentally, watch a good show.

The hierarchy of the Hongmeng Divine Kingdom was clear: Empress → Grand Priest → God King → God King → General → Divine Guard.

A General’s Realm was at most beyond the fourth stage of transcendence, while Divine Guards had varying Realms, with the lowest being Immortal King.

Even so.

The arrival of a General with a hundred Divine Guards, if placed in the Immortal Realm, would be a force capable of sweeping across the great Universe and overturning the heavens.

With his mind set, Wang Qing’s figure flickered, temporarily leaving the Profound Abyss Ancient Realm.

He intended to ask Situ Linghuang if she was aware of the General and his Guards crossing the River of Time.

Shenyou Dojo, Duanlin Peak.

In front of a magnificent palace, Youming Chan watched Qi Kang lead his troops down and quickly went forward, cupping his hands in a salute:

”General Qi, for this trip... did you seek the Empress’s instruction?”

”No,” Qi Kang shook his head. ”Such a minor matter as dealing with external enemies, why bother the Empress? We can handle it ourselves.”

With that, he looked around, a puzzled expression on his face:

”Brother You previously said the Profound Abyss Ancient Realm was being troubled by a powerful expert? But I see this Realm’s order is well-maintained, with no signs of war.”

Youming Chan quickly explained: ”That Young Lord of the Taboo Wang Family hasn’t made a move yet! I invited Brother Qi here precisely to deter him!”

Upon hearing this, a flicker of imperceptible dread flashed in Qi Kang’s eyes, but he showed no trace of it.

In his heart, he had already cursed Youming Chan’s ancestors for eighteen generations!

This was clearly pulling him in to die!

Behind Wang Qing stood not only the Taboo Wang Family but also the Piaomiao Forbidden Zone.

These two great Taboo powers alone were far from something a mere General could provoke.

Moreover, he had vaguely heard the God King behind him mention that the Hongmeng Empress seemed to know Wang Qing.

If he had known this trip was to deal with Wang Qing, he would never have set foot in this Realm!

However, remembering his billions of years of friendship with Youming Chan, Qi Kang couldn’t help but advise:

”General You, this Wang Qing... cannot be provoked.”

”If your enmity with him isn’t deep, listen to my advice: seeking forgiveness as soon as possible is the best course of action.”

Having said his piece, Qi Kang turned and ordered the Divine Guards: ”Retreat, follow me back to the Nine Heavens!”

Seeing this, Youming Chan immediately panicked and flashed to block their way: ”Brother Qi, what is the meaning of this? Why do you want to leave as soon as you hear Wang Qing’s name?”

Qi Kang’s expression was complex. After a moment of contemplation, he finally revealed in a low voice: ”Behind Wang Qing is not only the Taboo Wang Family but also the Piaomiao Forbidden Zone.”

”And... he seems to have an old acquaintance with the Hongmeng Empress.”

”That’s all I can say. As for what to do, General You, you must consider it yourself.”

With that, he said no more, leading the Divine Guards to tear through the Void Realm and vanish into the distant light.

No matter how Youming Chan tried to persuade them, not a single figure remained.

”This... what should I do? Wang Qing actually knows the Empress?”

Youming Chan’s expression was extremely unnatural.

On the edge of a nearby cliff, Shi Yi heard the conversation between his Great Master and those so-called Divine Kingdom powerhouses.

He patted his chest, relieved that he had the foresight to seek out that mysterious Senior from the back mountain.

Earlier, Shi Yi had vaguely felt that the Divine Kingdom probably wouldn’t dare to be an enemy of Wang Qing, and now his intuition was proven right.

He didn’t dare to think too much.

He remembered that among Gu Junan’s confidantes, one was connected to ”Shanqiong Cave” in the Nine Heavens.

Perhaps he could ask that sister-in-law for advice, to see if ”Shanqiong Cave” could be persuaded to deal with Wang Qing if necessary.

He acted on his thoughts immediately.

He immediately went to find Gu Junan’s confidantes.

On Duanlin Peak, there were many pavilions and towers.

Shi Yi turned left and right, arriving in front of an ancient and elegant pavilion.

Several women were looking anxious. Seeing him arrive, the leading woman, Fang Lan, walked forward and asked:

”Shi Yi, were those Divine Guards from the Divine Kingdom just now? Could they be Wang Qing’s pursuers?”

”Sister-in-law Fang, those people were invited by my Great Master to deal with Wang Qing.”

”However, the leading General, upon hearing Wang Qing’s name, didn’t intervene to help; instead, he turned and left!”

”He said that Wang Qing knows the Hongmeng Empress, so he rushed away, rolled up, and fled.”

Shi Yi gave a wry smile, scratching his head.

He continued, ”Sister-in-law Fang, didn’t you say you came from Shanqiong Cave in the Nine Heavens!”

”Wang Qing’s power is immense now, and Brother Gu has been captured. Can you see if your backing power can make a move...”

Fang Lan smiled bitterly and sighed:

”Sister-in-law is only a Named Disciple of Shanqiong Cave, and I don’t know if I can persuade my sect to act!”

She shook her head, her expression very helpless.

If she could persuade Shanqiong Cave to act against Wang Qing, she wouldn’t have fled to the Profound Abyss Ancient Realm with Shi Yi.

Moreover, Shanqiong Cave never interfered with worldly affairs.

Even if the Shanqiong Cave Master was also a transcendent being, she might not necessarily oppose Wang Qing.

Therefore, she dared not guarantee that her sect would make a move.

”This... what should I do!”

Shi Yi drooped his head, his mood very downcast.

Fang Lan and the other beautiful women, seeing Shi Yi in this state, didn’t know how to comfort him.

Although Wang Qing hadn’t made a move yet, according to his personality, it wouldn’t be long before he would.

The Immortal Realm was the best example; Wang Qing appeared harmless on the surface, yet he could secretly instigate wars, causing billions of lives to bleed.

How could such a ruthless person spare his enemies?
