Villainess Rampage: The Whole Sect Begs for Mercy

But when she saw the hordes of monsters, she chose to self-destruct without a moment’s hesitation.

The immense power swept across nearly the entire Land of the Sky Chasm, and countless monsters were obliterated by the force of the blast.

...

When she opened her eyes again, Song Wanning was drenched in sweat, her clothes soaked through.

She stared blankly at the familiar lounge chair beneath her, then at her familiar surroundings, unable to process what had happened for a moment.

Two streams of memory collided and merged in her Sea of Consciousness. Only after a long while did she finally come to her senses.

’Did I... just experience the entire life of the Golden Dragon predecessor?’

Though only a short time had passed, it felt as if she had lived for a hundred thousand years. Even now, it all felt surreal.

Song Wanning lowered her head in a daze, only to discover it wasn’t sweat that had soaked her clothes, but blood.

Peering inward, she saw a single drop of blood resting quietly within her Dantian. It hadn’t been absorbed by the orb there; instead, it hovered silently above it, exuding an air of proud tranquility.

This was the last drop of Heart Blood left behind when the Golden Dragon self-destructed.

And now it was inside her body.

Song Wanning found it unbelievable, but she could clearly feel the changes in her body. Even her aura was different.

It was a change brought about by her bloodline.

’I’ve awakened the bloodline of the Golden Dragon Clan!!’

Song Wanning’s thoughts were a tangled mess as the image of the Golden Dragon’s resolute self-destruction surfaced in her mind.

She had witnessed it all firsthand.

Unlike the glorious battle against the Demon God, fighting the otherworldly monsters was a long and agonizing process.

During that struggle, her kin died one by one, and her comrades fell one after another. Each loss was like a knife twisting in her heart.

Each blow was more painful than the last.

It was a torment of both body and soul, where even a single, gratifying battle was impossible.

The endless monsters and the seemingly eternal conflict slowly wore down one’s will.

The Golden Dragon predecessor endured it all and even sacrificed themself in the end, just to bring peace to the world.

Such selfless devotion shook Song Wanning to her core.

Because she was a selfish person.

’But,’ she thought, ’if my parents, my master and uncles, my friends, and the younger generation of the Song Family were behind me...’

’I might have made the same choice.’

Song Wanning lowered her gaze, her eyes filled with a mixture of regret and awe.

’But after the Golden Dragon died, did the remaining comrades manage to completely eradicate the monsters?’

She was filled with so many questions.

But for now, she had more pressing matters to attend to.

Song Wanning rose and walked over to the tall pillars. The patterns she couldn’t decipher before had now become crystal clear.

She sat down cross-legged before one of the pillars and extended her Divine Sense, letting it trace the patterns carved into it.

At the same time, the blood within her grew scorching hot, as if it were about to burn her from the inside out.

As her Divine Sense passed over the patterns, a flood of strange yet familiar information appeared in Song Wanning’s mind.

...

In the Immortal Realm, Mo Yang Immortal Venerable sat beneath a tree, his body still bearing the wounds he’d sustained on his recent trip to the Heavenly Abyss.

He stared at the large tree before him, but his mind was on the monsters in the Land of the Sky Chasm.

’They’ve been suppressed again, but as long as those monsters aren’t eradicated, they will always be a threat.’

As he was lost in thought, a bell suddenly chimed throughout the Sect.

Mo Yang Immortal Venerable considered for a moment, then teleported toward the Sect Master Hall.

At the same time, the other great powers of the Wuji Sect also rushed to the Sect Master Hall, all eager to know what had happened.

When they arrived, however, they found the Sect Master pacing back and forth, his expression agitated.

”What’s happened?”

Mu Zixu strode in and asked curiously.

The other powerful cultivators filing in were also baffled. After all, the bell would not ring so suddenly without good reason.

”The Golden Dragon Bloodline! The Golden Dragon Bloodline has shown a reaction!”

The Sect Master exclaimed, pulling out a message he had just received.

”The Hero Tomb is the final resting place of the predecessors who fought to destroy the otherworldly monsters.”

”The Golden Dragon Clan, the Phoenix Clan, the Vermilion Bird Clan...”

”They saved the world from destruction, but at the cost of their own extinction. Not even the Phoenix Clan, who can be reborn through nirvana, escaped this fate.”

”But shockingly, the bloodline of the Golden Dragon Clan has shown a flicker of a reaction! The Tomb Guardian discovered it and immediately reported the news.”

”Now, all the Major Sects know the Golden Dragon Bloodline has awakened, but no one knows who it is or where they are!”

”We must find the one with the Golden Dragon Bloodline first and bring them into the Wuji Sect!”

The Sect Master’s expression gradually calmed. ”Perhaps their appearance is the only way we can truly and completely eliminate those monsters.”

”And if the Golden Dragon Clan is awakening, perhaps the Phoenix and Vermilion Bird clans will too...”

”The Golden Dragon Clan...”

Mu Zixu murmured, his eyes wide with shock.

’The Golden Dragon Clan was completely wiped out. They haven’t appeared in hundreds of thousands of years, and now someone has awakened their bloodline. The entire Immortal Realm must be in an uproar.’

”Then the Wuji Sect certainly can’t afford to fall behind. We must find this person as soon as possible.”

Hearing this, Mu Zixu grew restless, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes.

’If I can find this person and take them on as my disciple, I’ll definitely surpass Daoqing’s disciples.’

’We’ll see how arrogant he can be then!’

”Correct. That is precisely why I have summoned you all here,” the Sect Master said.

The Sect Master nodded, a faint smile on his face. He discussed a few more matters before everyone gradually dispersed.

Daoqing followed behind Mo Yang Immortal Venerable. After a moment’s thought, he stepped forward to greet him.

”Immortal Venerable, you have just returned from the Heavenly Abyss and have exhausted your vital energy. I have refined these Elixir Pills. I hope you will not find them lacking.”

Daoqing’s Cultivation was far inferior to Mo Yang Immortal Venerable’s, so even though he was older, he could only address him respectfully as ”Immortal Venerable.”

But he deeply admired Mo Yang, so he had specially offered these refined High-level Immortal Pills, hoping they could help Mo Yang recover some of his vital energy.

”Thank you.”

Mo Yang Immortal Venerable didn’t refuse. He accepted the Elixir Pills and gave his polite thanks before striding away.

Now that the bloodline of the Golden Dragon Clan had awakened, he too wanted to find this person as quickly as possible. ’Perhaps,’ he thought, ’there’s a real chance we can finally get rid of those monsters.’

Mu Zixu watched the exchange between the two.

He strode up to Daoqing and sneered, ”What, trying to suck up to Mo Yang Immortal Venerable? Too bad for you, he’s not buying what you’re selling.”

’Mo Yang Immortal Venerable is indifferent to everyone. An act like that won’t make him look at Daoqing any differently.’

Daoqing shot him a sidelong glance and chuckled.

”In your eyes, everyone is just an opportunity for personal gain, aren’t they?”

’Does he think everyone is just like him?’

”Since you have so much free time, I suggest you spend it studying Alchemy. That way, you might not lose to me again in the next competition.”

Daoqing let out two loud laughs and strode away, ignoring Mu Zixu’s thunderous expression.
