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

187: Arrange for someone to protect Yunfu.”Didn’t you return to the Land of the Other Shore, kid? How can you still project yourself into the Nine Heavens Demon Domain?”

Wang Jizi’s eyes narrowed sharply, and as his sleeve robes swirled, the spatial passage he had just constructed silently disintegrated, leaving only a sky full of Devilish Qi flowing erratically in the Void Realm.

He stared intently at the moon-white figure before him, his voice carrying a hint of imperceptible tremor.

”No... You’ve also stepped into the Dao Exhaustion Realm?!”

The moment these words left his mouth, even Wang Jizi himself felt a wave of absurdity.

This was because Wang Qing, in this life, had only lived for a few hundred thousand years since his birth.

His own lifespan was incredibly long; he had witnessed the rise and fall of countless Prodigies, yet he had never seen an existence as world-defying as Wang Qing.

Beside him, Shui Tianqiong’s usually placid face showed a hint of astonishment for the first time.

The Dao rhythm around him was slightly disrupted, and his gaze, almost tangible, fell upon Wang Qing, as if trying to see through him from inside out.

Wang Qing’s cultivation in this life, spanning hundreds of thousands of years, was, to beings like them, merely a brief seclusion or a common discussion of the Dao.

How many exceptionally talented individuals had spent billions of years, struggling even to glimpse the end of the path of transcendence, let alone touch the supreme Dao Exhaustion!

Yet this young man before them... in the blink of an eye, had completed a journey that others could not achieve in billions of years?

This could no longer be described as extraordinary talent; it was an outright trampling of all cultivation norms, a subversion of the foundational understanding of the Multiverse!

Nine Abyss’s pupils, in particular, constricted violently, and a monstrous wave surged in his heart.

As a Nine Heavens True Demon, he had, along with Xie Shengtian, opened the Demonic Domain and endured countless calamities to barely step into the Dao Exhaustion Realm.

He deeply understood the difficulty, which was nothing short of Heaven-Defying.

But Wang Qing... Although he was the Lord of the Other Shore in his previous life, how could he re-walk the path of cultivation at such an unbelievably fast pace?

This was beyond outrageous; it was almost as if the ”Dao” itself was paving the way for him!

A single thought simultaneously arose in the minds of the three: Could this child truly be an anomaly outside the rules of the Hongmeng Sea?

In front of the Bone Demon Palace, the air seemed to solidify.

The surging Devilish Qi quietly subsided three feet away from Wang Qing, and even the dark pillar of light from Ten Thousand Demon Peak, which shot straight into the Void Realm.

At this moment, it seemed to dim a few shades, as if showing reverence to this sudden presence.

Wang Qing stood still, his moon-white robes moving without wind, his snow-white hair gently swaying.

The faint smile on his lips remained unchanged, as if the tumultuous waves in the hearts of the three old monsters were, to him, merely a gentle breeze.

”My stepping into the Dao Exhaustion Realm will be explained later.”

”Right now, I need three of you to go to the Immortal Realm and kill King Qin the Slaughterer, Qin Sanniang, King Jiang the Killer, Long Qinghong, and Wei Mingyu.”

”These five have received help from Gu Cangyang and have all embarked on the path of transcendence.”

”King Qin the Slaughterer has even achieved the Dao Exhaustion Realm and is currently pursuing Yun Fu, the Vice Leader of the Transcendents Alliance.”

”You are to slay the five of them and, while you’re at it, ensure Yun Fu’s safety.”

As his words fell.

Wang Qing’s eyes revealed a hint of helplessness. He naturally knew that Situ Linghuang and the others were preparing for a wedding.

At the same time, he had learned about the situation in the Immortal Realm through the River of Time; it had already been occupied by King Qin the Slaughterer.

Yun Fu was in the Immortal Realm, handling some trivial matters, and was targeted by King Qin the Slaughterer. Only then did he project himself into the Demonic Domain to ask the old patriarchs to protect her.

”You’re truly playing it wild, kid; you’ve even captured both leaders of the Transcendents Alliance.”

Shui Tianqiong wore a strange expression, unable to help but admire Wang Qing’s methods.

Not long ago, news of a marriage spread, and among them, the Leader of the Transcendents Alliance also became one of Wang Qing’s confidantes.

Now, Wang Qing projected himself into the Demonic Domain to ask them to protect the Vice Leader of the Transcendents Alliance. He was indeed playing it wild.

It seemed that all the famous peerless beauties of the Hongmeng Sea had been ”corrupted” by Wang Qing.

”Old Man Shui, don’t worry. Even if I have many confidantes, I will not let down Sister Shui Xi.”

Wang Qing smiled, not caring about Shui Tianqiong’s strange expression.

”Kid, since Yun Fu is your confidante, then the three of us will go to protect her.”

”But you must not be careless about the Son of the Great Dao and the God Race. If there’s anything you can’t resolve, be sure to send word back to the Hongmeng Sea.”

Wang Jizi exhorted Wang Qing.

He turned to Shui Tianqiong and Nine Abyss and said, ”Let’s go, the three of us to the Immortal Realm. Leave the other matters to Wang Qing!”

”That works!” Shui Tianqiong and Nine Abyss agreed in unison.

Soon, the three of them once again tore through the Void Realm, transforming into streaks of light that vanished within.

Watching the three old fellows depart, Wang Qing did not leave the Bone Demon Palace but waited to deal with Gu Junan.

Last time, Gu Junan was rescued by Daoist Taibai, but this time, no one would be able to help him.

As far as Wang Qing knew, Zhuge Yuanxi had already left the Transcendents Alliance.

The meaning was clear: she would no longer shelter the Transcendents Alliance, allowing Wang Qing to deal with those Transmigrators however he wished.

”My Lord, when did you return to the Hongmeng Sea?”

Suddenly, a surprised voice interrupted Wang Qing’s thoughts.

Gui Xu Demon Lord (Wan Luokuang) appeared, bringing a beautiful woman to the Bone Demon Palace.

He saw Wang Qing’s figure, quickly approached to salute, his eyes filled with awe and surprise.

Wang Qing came back to his senses, glanced at Wan Luokuang, then at the woman, who was Fang Lan.

His brows furrowed unconsciously, and layers of doubt arose in his heart as he carefully scrutinized Wan Luokuang’s cultivation.

Logically, as a Demon Lord under the Nine Heavens True Demon, he should possess extraordinary talent and rapid cultivation progress.

Yet, after hundreds of thousands of years, Wan Luokuang had only risen from the Peak of the third stage of transcendence to the sixth stage?

This speed was too slow; could there be another hidden reason?

Or was it that Wan Luokuang’s Aptitude was inherently mediocre, and he only attained the position of Demon Lord through Nine Abyss’s patronage?

All sorts of conjectures flashed through Wang Qing’s mind, making his gaze even more profound.

”How is it that you’ve only reached the sixth stage of transcendence?”

Wang Qing asked with a frown, his voice carrying a hint of imperceptible scrutiny.

Through his deductions from the River of Time, he had long known Wan Luokuang’s past.

Back then, when Wan Luokuang killed a special Divine Guard of the Hongmeng Divine Kingdom and was pursued by Situ Linghuang’s projection, Wan Luokuang was already at the Peak of the third stage of transcendence.

After that, Wan Luokuang escaped to the Great Thousand Demon Realm using a supreme treasure.

The Great Thousand Demon Realm was shattered by Situ Linghuang’s projection.

Wan Luokuang was severely injured and fled to the Northern Cold Immortal Region of the Immortal Realm, where he was suppressed in the Abyss of the Northern Ruins by Ye Langtian and his men.

Situ Linghuang’s projection also pursued him to the Immortal Realm. Upon discovering that Gui Xu Demon Lord was suppressed, she, out of boredom, established a Western Cold Immortal Court in the Immortal Realm.

Later, Wang Qing released Gui Xu Demon Lord, who then persecuted the Immortal Realm.

When the Hongmeng Calamity affected the Multiverse and shattered the Immortal Realm, Wan Luokuang returned Above the Nine Heavens.

With the arrival of the New Era, when Wang Qing last reunited with Wan Luokuang in the Nine Heavens Divine Domain, his strength had fully recovered.

However, after hundreds of thousands of years, with countless Opportunities in the Hongmeng Sea, Wan Luokuang had only made a Breakthrough of three minor stages, which was truly illogical.

Wang Qing couldn’t help but wonder: Had he overestimated this Demon Lord’s potential?

Or had Wan Luokuang secretly encountered some Bottleneck that he had not revealed?
