I Truly Am The Villian-Chapter 1070 - 1069: Our Lady, Qichen Taoist Courts

Chapter 1070 -1069: Our Lady, Qichen Taoist Courts

His figure moved through the void, which was so quiet that not even a ripple stirred.

Xu Zimei passed through the courtyard, looking down.

The vast area of the courtyard was deserted. Upon closer inspection, he discovered a secret mechanism beneath it.

There was actually a hidden chamber.

He saw with his own eyes the person in black remove their cloak, revealing their face.

How to describe it? It was as if a human had merged with a Monster Beast.

An indescribable creature.

His face was covered in blue fur, and his mouth was like that of an eagle, forming a triangle.

But his nose and eyes were no different from that of a normal human being.

His hands, however, were like talons, with nails half a meter long, retractable at will.

“So this is what a Witch Demon looks like,” Xu Zimei muttered to himself.

He sensed the power within the other party.

Extremely violent and chaotic, as if even the Witch Demon itself struggled to control it.

Otherwise, Lin Yunhen would not have detected anything unusual just now.

They can’t control their own power.

Xu Zimei followed behind the other party and together they entered the underground chamber.

Because he was hidden in the void, unless the other party shattered the void, his presence would go unnoticed.

And the Witch Demons he had met so far were at most of Saint Vein strength; even if he stood behind them, they probably wouldn’t sense him.

Following the dark stairs all the way down.

Xu Zimei finally saw the scene inside the chamber.

There were hundreds of cages big and small, each containing a human.

What shocked him was not this, but the nature of these imprisoned humans.

Not a single one of them was ordinary; each possessed a special physique.

Some were similar to the Hundred Great Battle Bodies, but Xu Zimei was not very familiar with the special physiques of the Nine Domains.

So he did not know.

Nevertheless, these physiques varied in strength.

He personally saw the Witch Demons dragging out a human, then skinning and deboning them, forcefully separating out the special physique.

It was clear that they were collecting these special physiques.

Before Xu Zimei could observe further, a creature deep in the chamber seemed to notice him.

Xu Zimei felt a gaze piercing through the layers of void, landing on him.

For a moment, he actually felt a suppressive force.

But he broke free in an instant.

His figure vanished into the void.

In the darkness of the chamber, a figure suddenly spoke up.

“Someone has infiltrated.”

The figures in black robes meditating nearby opened their eyes instantly, a massive aura of oppression emanating from them.

As if searching for something in the darkness.

“You are not his match,” the voice in the darkness spoke again.

“I can’t suppress him right now either, leave a way out.”

A few figures in black robes bowed to the darkness.

……

Xu Zimei walked out of the courtyard.

He looked back deeply.

“Is it a Great Saint or a Great Emperor?” he murmured to himself. The sensation was fleeting, and even he had not detected it.

But he was not flustered. No matter who it was, he didn’t need to be afraid.

He was accompanied by the Seven-faced Demon General and Bai Meng, two Great Saints, and he himself could reach the fifth realm of the Great Emperor with the power of the War God activated.

Even if he couldn’t win, escaping would not be an issue.

He slowly walked towards Xia Wanqing and the others.

“How did it go?” Lin Yunhen asked hastily.

“Inside there is a large dungeon, imprisoning many humans,” Xu Zimei replied.

“And every human being there possesses a special physique. It seems they are looking for special physiques.

It must be the Witch Demons.”

“This is troublesome,” Lin Yunhen replied.

“Not only did they not hide, but they also brazenly showed themselves.

It seems definitely someone in Azure Snake City is in cahoots with them.”

“We need to find a way to investigate who’s behind this,” when Lin Yunhen said this, he looked toward Xu Zimei.

“It should be you, not us,” Xu Zimei shook his head.

“We have to go to Qianniu Taoist Court.”

Lin Yunhen’s expression froze, and he turned to Xia Wanqing.

Xia Wanqing seemed rather troubled.

The three returned to the inn; after having dinner, they went to rest early.

The heavy rain continued to pour outside.

Xu Zimei heard a knock on the door, he opened it and saw Xia Wanqing standing outside.

“Come in,” he said calmly.

“We cannot leave Azure Snake City so quickly,” Xia Wanqing said.

“The Witch Demon issue needs to be resolved, and there are so many people waiting for help.”

“I know,” Xu Zimei replied.

“But what does that have to do with us?”

“The disaster of the Witch Demon is everyone’s responsibility,” Xia Wanqing replied.

“We cannot allow the past tragedies to happen again.”

“Do you know what kind of person I detest the most in my life?” Xu Zimei asked.

“Who?”

“Our Lady,” Xu Zimei answered.

“You can choose to be a good person or a bad person.

But the premise is you must be qualified to choose. Do you think you are?”

“I, I don’t quite understand what you mean,” Xia Wanqing said hesitantly.

“Do you know what being resides within that courtyard? A Great Emperor or a Great Saint?

And what about you? You are but an Esteem Vein Realm ant, one easily crushed by others, an ant that wouldn’t know how many times it has died.

I don’t understand the significance of you staying behind, nor the confidence with which you speak these words,”

Xu Zimei said indifferently.

“You want to be an utterly incorrigible villain or a Saint concerned for the country and its people, that’s your choice.

But the prerequisite is that you must have the capability, the power to dismiss everything else.

Do you think you possess it?

Being realistic about one’s own abilities is of great importance; you must do only what’s within your capabilities.

The sky hasn’t fallen, and there are still tall ones alive.

This is a matter for the Linlong Dynasty, and at worst there are still the Taoist Courts and Holy Hall above us.

When would it ever be the turn for an Esteem Vein ant like you to poke your nose into others’ business?

If it were just a group of robbers raising small disturbances, I would think of you as kind if you acted out of a sense of justice.

But what is the Witch Demon? You said it yourself; it has once brought havoc to the entire Mortal Domain.

If you still want to play the hero, that’s not kindness but foolishness.

The Heaven Martial Sect has not been restored, and the journey to Qianniu Taoist Court is fraught with uncertainty. You haven’t even sorted out your own affairs, how can you sweep the world without sweeping your own house first?

If you think what I said was harsh, you can go to that courtyard. Even if you were killed, I would not so much as blink an eye.”

Hearing what Xu Zimei said, Xia Wanqing became more and more silent.

“Don’t be angry, it’s just that I was thinking too naively,” she said, looking worriedly at Xu Zimei.

“I’m not angry, I’m just teaching you the principles of living,” Xu Zimei waved his hand.

“Go back to sleep. You can think about it more tonight.

Tomorrow morning, I shall depart for the Qianniu Taoist Court.”

……

A silent night,

The next morning, the rain gradually stopped, and a grey mist shrouded the whole sky and earth.

As Xu Zimei came downstairs, Xia Wanqing and Lin Yunhen seemed to have been waiting for a while.

“Brother Xu, let’s go,” Lin Yunhen smiled.

“Aren’t you staying here?” Xu Zimei asked.
