I Truly Am The Villian

When the Yu Beast’s massive body stirred up the sky-covering waves,

a loud "boom" echoed as cracks appeared on the barrier formation surrounding the entire ship.

"Take action," the one-armed elder, Blood-drinking Mad Blade, said solemnly.

As his voice fell, seven figures stepped out from among the crowd.

All seven were clad in purple robes, their auras subtly interconnected, forming a cohesive force.

In their hands, they each held an identical iron chain.

The clattering of chains resounded as the seven moved in unison, slowly making their way forward.

"It’s the Heavenly Blade Seven Men," someone in the crowd shouted excitedly.

The Heavenly Blade Seven Men were the seven direct disciples of the Sect Master of the Heavenly Blade Sect, each of them celebrated talents, their names known far and wide.

They were all first-class Talented Disciples, which is why people called them the Heavenly Blade Seven Men together.

And in their ranks, Xu Zimei also spotted the figure of Chen Tianyi.

Speaking of Gentleman Sword Chen Tianyi, he had some connections with the Heavenly Blade Sect as well.

As a disciple of Blood-drinking Mad Blade, he had no interest in blades but was extremely enthusiastic about sword techniques.

It was because of this that he was almost expelled from the sect, but ultimately, Blood-drinking Mad Blade was too compassionate.

In secret, he covertly taught Chen Tianyi the way of the sword.

Although his specialty was the blade, at his level of achievement, he had mastered all techniques.

Ultimately, Gentleman Sword Chen Tianyi became the most famous and the strongest in cultivation among the Heavenly Blade Seven Men.

At that moment as the Heavenly Blade Seven Men stepped forward, they rose into the air, all charging at the Yu Beast.

A thunderous "rumble" exploded beneath their feet.

The whirling sound of chains also circulated.

Blood-drinking Mad Blade’s face was serious as he sat above the firmament, his presence as vast as the sea, the might of the Divine Vein Realm radiating from him.

The Yu Beast roared skywards, the storm it stirred around it causing the ship to sail even faster.

Seeing the Heavenly Blade Seven Men approaching, the Yu Beast suddenly spread its wings, which could blot out the sky and the sun, and swatted directly at them.

Ripples spread through space, and the entire expanse above shattered.

With a "boom," when those wings came down, they did so with an almost invincible air.

The Heavenly Blade Seven Men were all sent flying.

The Yu Beast roared upwards, every movement carrying immense might.

"Bind it with the chains," Blood-drinking Mad Blade yelled from the side.

Upon hearing this, the Heavenly Blade Seven Men’s bodies surged with the power of either Emperor Pulse or Saint Vein.

The chains in their hands clattered, emanating a dull grey glow.

Roars came from the chains, which now bore the phantoms of Yu Beasts.

Each chain featured one phantom, these apparitions exerting a terrifying force as they suppressed the Yu Beast.

Xu Zimei watched intently from inside the cabin; each chain was not made of ordinary materials.

Instead, they were forged from the remnants and spirits of Yu Beasts.

This kind of chain, if used properly, could greatly suppress the Yu Beasts.

Blood-drinking Mad Blade looked disinterested above, his Divine Vein Realm might spreading out, vast as the sea.

During those dark years in the Endless Heaven Sea, after he had destroyed the Yu Clan, he had crafted these chains.

It was a precaution, fearing that one day he might be overcome by weakness.

At this moment, the Yu Beast looked at the chains, a flicker of fear in its eyes.

Seven chains in total, all controlled by the Heavenly Blade Seven Men, danced in midair.

```

Phantasmal shadows enveloped the chains, making them seem as if they had transformed into Yu Beasts.

The chains danced in mid-air, with several Yu Beasts roaring.

Then, all seven chains flew towards the Yu Beasts.

The roar of the Yu Beasts grew louder, deafening, shaking heaven and earth as they flapped their wings towards the chains.

This time, the spiritual energy in the sky churned, and a large expanse of space that had just recovered collapsed once more.

When the wings struck the chains, the expected scene of the chains being flung away did not occur.

Instead, the chains, like corrosive bonds, wrapped themselves directly around the wings.

The chains vibrated, and the phantasmal shadows roared in suppression from above.

One end of each chain pierced through the wings, imprisoning them, while the other ends reached into the Endless Void, falling into the hands of the Heavenly Blade Seven Men.

These nine chains separately suppressed the Yu Beast’s seven key points.

A chain each for the left and right wings, each leg, two for the abdomen, and one at the neck.

The spiritual energy surged around the Heavenly Blade Seven Men as they desperately gripped one end of the chains.

They pulled the Yu Beast straight up from the ocean floor, suppressing it mid-air.

The Yu Beast, furious, struggled helplessly as the shadowy chains suppressed it too greatly, preventing its escape for the moment.

As the Yu Beast was controlled and unable to escape, the Blood-drinking Mad Blade slowly drew the long blade from his back, up in the firmament.

The blade trembled with a clang, four feet long, amber-like in appearance, a gleaming, blood-red crystal.

At the moment the blade left its sheath, the one-armed elder gripped the sword in his left hand.

The might of the Divine Vein Realm emanated from him, pouring out like the sea, and the spiritual energy from all over the Endless Heaven Sea stirred violently.

The spiritual energy from the surroundings began to coalesce around the long blade.

As more and more spiritual energy surged towards it, the crimson of the blade appeared even denser and more monstrous.

The Blade Intent surrounding the one-armed elder grew more intense, almost materializing.

The Blade Intent clamored crazily, even tearing the elder’s robe.

The one-armed elder roared, and his long blade sliced through the silent firmament.

Countless spaces around fractured, the Blade Intent of Wu Geng burst forth with a sword light thousands of feet long, tearing through layers of the void, raising waves as high as mountains, thrusting towards the Yu Beast.

The Yu Beast roared in outrage, struggling frantically.

Wu Geng’s Blade Intent pierced through the belly of the Yu Beast, and black blood flowed from the wound.

The black blood stained the ocean below, and an unimaginable stench of blood dispersed around.

However, the vitality of the Yu Beast was extremely resilient, and it continued to struggle forcefully.

After landing that strike, the one-armed elder’s figure slowly descended onto the deck of the ship.

He looked sickly pale, his body unsteady, almost collapsing.

Sheathing his blade, he paused for a long while before catching his breath.

Jin Qizhao quickly supported the one-armed elder, asking with concern, "Master, are you injured?"

"It’s nothing," the Blood-drinking Mad Blade shook his head slightly.

He said, "An old injury."

"Was it from that great battle years ago?" Jin Qizhao asked.

That battle with the Yu Clan was almost universally known across the Yuan Central Continent.

However, few knew that following that battle, Blood-drinking Mad Blade also sustained an injury that proved very hard to heal.

This injury ruined his Martial Path to Heaven, making it impossible for him to Step into Immortality for life.

"It’s nothing serious. Once these Yu Beasts are eradicated, I plan to retire to the mountains," the Blood-drinking Mad Blade said, shaking his head with a smile.

"Now that all of you are growing up, I feel relieved."
