I Truly Am The Villian

The armor-clad woman quickly said, "Father, don’t get worked up, it’s not too late to find out what happened first."

"You, tell me what happened?" the middle-aged man asked with furious eyes as he looked at the guards beside him.

The two guards, terrified and trembling, naturally dared not hide anything and told the whole story in detail.

After listening, the middle-aged man frowned slightly and said to Xu Zimei.

"My son may be at fault, but that doesn’t mean you can humiliate a member of the Jin family."

"What a nuisance," Xu Zimei shook his head.

He said, "Then summon all your Jin family members here, and I will kill them all at once."

"You...", the middle-aged man grunted, with the power of Saint Vein Realm surging around him.

"Father, don’t forget the purpose of our trip," the woman beside him said to the middle-aged man.

"Zhao’er, what do you mean?" the middle-aged man asked, suppressing his anger with a frown.

Jin Qizhao took a deep breath and said calmly, "Father, let me handle this matter."

She turned to face Xu Zimei and said, "Young master, regardless,

since my brother was the one who started this, but you also hit him.

How about we call it even and end this matter here?"

"Zhao’er, you," the middle-aged man said, somewhat astonished.

Even Jin Chicheng of the nearby city was very perplexed, saying, "Sister, was I beaten for nothing then?"

But Jin Qizhao didn’t look at anyone else; she only kept her gaze on Xu Zimei, waiting for his response.

Xu Zimei turned his attention to the one-armed old man, Blood-drinking Mad Blade, behind him.

The other party had seen his strength on the ship before; it must have been this one-armed old man who gave Jin Qizhao some hints.

Otherwise, the matter would not have ended so easily.

"I don’t mind," Xu Zimei glanced at the one-armed old man.

Seeing that the latter was smiling at him, he turned and lay back down on the lounge chair he had been in before.

"Zhao’er, why?" the earlier middle-aged man was still puzzled.

"I can’t allow any mishap in this affair, Father, you should understand that,"

Jin Qizhao said indifferently, "There’s no need to create unnecessary trouble."

The middle-aged man snorted softly and didn’t say anything more.

Although the Jin family is the top family of Golden Scales City, they have been gradually declining over the years.

Now that his daughter has become a direct disciple of the Sect Master of the Heavenly Blade Sect,

the Jin family will have to rely on this daughter for everything in the future; he dared not contradict her.

The most important thing is that since she was young, this daughter has been fiercely independent, always striving to be stronger than others, and very decisive.

Once the commotion subsided, the middle-aged man and Jin Chicheng left with glum faces.

Only then did Jin Qizhao turn to the one-armed old man and ask softly, "Master, is he really that strong?

He seems to be about the same age as me."

"Zhao’er, don’t underestimate anyone in this whole wide world," Blood-drinking Mad Blade shook his head with a smile.

"Even I am but a speck of dust in the grand scheme of things; always remember, there is always someone stronger."

"I will take heed, Master," the woman quickly nodded.

…

The ship continued sailing forward.

Xu Zimei found this ship quite interesting; every day the crew would sprinkle some kind of powder around the vessel.

He did not know what it was.

On the third day at noon, the capricious weather turned sunny and bright.

A blazing sun hung in the sky, reflecting on the sea and making it sparkle and shimmer, clear and translucent.

The tourists resting on the ship were startled by a sudden "boom."

A beastly roar accompanied a jolt of shaking.

It was as if the entire ship had been struck by something, beginning to shake violently.

"Activate the Formation," Jin Qizhao commanded calmly, as though he had long anticipated this situation.

Beneath the ship, a six-pointed star formation pattern emerged, followed by a wild surge of Spiritual Energy around it.

A layer of azure barrier appeared around the vessel.

The creature outside continued to slam into the ship, causing it to rock more and more violently, almost capsizing several times.

The external world was a raging sea; the once-calm surface seemed suddenly enraged, waves rolling up in succession.

In the midst of the gale and torrential rain, a giant shadow abruptly enveloped the entire vessel.

People looked up in terror, only to see that the shadow was a gigantic beast resembling a bat, over a hundred meters tall.

Its entire body was ink-colored, somewhere between black and gray.

The surface of its body was extremely smooth, with two wings attached to its waist.

Its head was triangular, its facial features very small, almost indiscernible unless one looked closely.

When the creature appeared, its size dwarfed the ship by several times.

"It’s a Yu Beast, it’s a Yu Beast," uninformed tourists continued to shout in terror.

"There are still Yu Beasts alive."

"It seems our information wasn’t wrong," Blood-drinking Mad Blade narrowed his eyes, saying in a cold voice.

His tone was stern, his cold Blade Intent slowly spreading.

Everyone knew Blood-drinking Mad Blade had ancient grudges against the Yu Beasts.

At the start of the Era of Emperors, the human race and the Monster Race had both been greatly weakened after a massive war.

And the Yu Race took the opportunity to occupy the Endless Heaven Sea, marking it a dark age for the Endless Heaven Sea.

The father of Blood-drinking Mad Blade perished at the hands of a Yu Beast, hence his lifelong struggle against the Yu Beasts.

With the help of many powers, he had managed to utterly destroy that race, freeing the Endless Heaven Sea.

Unexpectantly, now a new Yu Beast had emerged.

...…

When the Yu Beast appeared, apart from a few panicked individuals, the majority remained very composed.

For their journey was indeed for the sake of this Yu Beast.

"How was Senior Mad Blade so sure this Yu Beast would attack us?" asked Jin Haizhou, the Family Head of the Jin Family, puzzled.

"Because of the powder scattered around the ship," Blood-drinking Mad Blade replied casually.

"What is it?"

"The cremated remains of its kin."

"What should we do with this Yu Beast?" Jin Haizhou asked, a little stunned.

"Although it is only at its juvenile stage, it’s not so easy to deal with.

We should capture it alive if possible, but it’s fine to kill it if the situation doesn’t allow," said Blood-drinking Mad Blade indifferently.

The Yu Beast stood hundreds of meters tall, its dark eyes fixed on the people aboard the ship.

Its presence was majestic, and upon closer inspection, its aura was that of the Saint Vein Realm.

This brings us to the classification of Yu Beasts.

Most Monster Beasts gradually grow from their juvenile to adult stage with the passage of time.

But Yu Beasts are different; they need to consume a great amount of power.

Only power can transition them from juvenile to maturity; otherwise, they remain juveniles for life,

unable to avoid it even at the moment of death.

Identifying Yu Beasts is relatively straightforward; those below the Divine Vein are considered juveniles.

Only once they have embarked on the path to immortality, do they truly step into maturity.
