I Truly Am The Villian

Xu Zimei nodded affirmatively.

Xuanyuan Xuantian gave a somewhat bitter smile and said, "I’m not as good as Brother Xu. Now I am in decline, and my future seems bleak. I don’t know where to go next!"

"If even having one of the Hundred Great Battle Bodies still leaves you unsatisfied, then what about those martial artists who don’t even have a Battle Body and are still struggling desperately?"

Xu Zimei laughed and said, "Some things you have to strive for yourself. Contentment brings happiness."

"Brother Xu is right, it’s just that some things are hard to let go of, I’m not that free and easy yet," Xuanyuan Xuantian said with a light laugh. "Brother Xu, since the Six Sects Grand Competition, there has been little news of you.

Nowadays, geniuses are emerging in the Extreme West Region, making them inscrutable."

"Geniuses? Name a few for me to hear," Xu Zimei said with a laugh.

"Let’s not talk about those from afar, just the current Saint Heir of our Divine Sun Holy Sect, Luo Changfeng.

He just broke through to the Saint Vein Realm six months ago, and with the possession of the Undying Battle Body, he’s already being referred to as the number one person in the Extreme West Region.

As for Tian Mozi of the Purgatory Holy Sect, it is said he has inherited the legacy of an ancient demon, and his strength has greatly increased, making him notorious.

And Xian Linger from the Immortal Spirit Sect has been confirmed to be the reincarnation of the Peacock Ancestral Master.

In this short period, her cultivation has advanced rapidly, already displaying some of the grandeur of the past.

Then there’s the Myriad Beasts Sect. It’s said that they didn’t participate in the Six Sects Grand Competition because a disciple from their sect encountered a mishap with their bloodline, causing damage to the Pure Moon Altar.

However, it’s rumored that a disciple in that chaotic accident actually had a bloodline reversal, achieving a perfect level.

They possess the double bloodline, with both the human race’s cultivation speed and the Monster Race’s fighting prowess."

Hearing Xuanyuan Xuantian’s words, Xu Zimei shook his head with a light laugh.

He said, "They’re just some chickens and dogs."

"Xu Zimei, you have scarcely been seen in the Extreme West Region these past few years, leading many to gradually forget about you," Xuanyuan Xuantian said. "Brother Xu should still be cautious. There might be many who wish to challenge you."

"Challenge me?" Xu Zimei asked, amused.

"Yes, because you were the first-ranked in the Six Sects Grand Competition back then, already hailed as the number one person in the Extreme West Region.

Defeating you would allow them to claim this title, wouldn’t it?

Secondly, there’s also the fact that you are backed by the True Martial Holy Sect. To defeat the current Saint Heir of the Holy Sect would also be a way to gain fame!" Xuanyuan Xuantian said with a light laugh.

"That’s kind of interesting," Xu Zimei said with a smile.

He said, "Let me give you a piece of advice. If you do find yourself lost about the future, you should travel more.

The Extreme West Region is just too small in the end; with five great continents out there, who knows what chances are waiting for you elsewhere."

Xuanyuan Xuantian nodded seriously, as if he had already thought about this idea.

Over the course of a meal, the two of them talked about many things.

Although they weren’t too familiar with each other before, discussing the Martial Path always involved mutual exploration.

Furthermore, with Xu Zimei missing these past few years, the Extreme West Region had completely transformed, with everyone rapidly growing, preparing to face the destiny of this great era of tumult.

The two talked from noon until dusk, and just at that moment, a group of people walked into the tavern from outside.

These people were all dressed in golden robes, the uniform attire of the Divine Sun Holy Sect.

Xu Zimei casually glanced over, but what truly caught his attention was the leader of the group.

He was a young man with a sun emblazoned on the back of his golden robe.

On his chest was also the unique Sect Gate symbol of the Divine Sun Holy Sect, and the color of his clothes was even more profound than the others.

Back in the grand competition among the six sects, Xu Zimei had seen Xuanyuan Xuantian wearing this very attire.

It seems this is the unique garb of the Divine Sun Holy Sect’s Saint Heir.

"Your old acquaintance has arrived," Xu Zimei said to Xuanyuan Xuantian.

Xuanyuan Xuantian turned his head for a glance, and his expression instantly grew cold.

There were four people in this group, two men and two women.

At this moment, the leader, who was the Saint Heir of the Divine Sun Holy Sect, Luo Changfeng, slowly walked toward Xuanyuan Xuantian.

"I went to the City Lord Mansion; they said you were here, so I came looking," Luo Changhe spoke, his tone calm.

"Is there an issue?" Xuanyuan Xuantian asked without raising his head.

"Xuanyuan Shixiong, Luo Shixiong is the Saint Heir; please mind your tone when you speak," a female disciple nearby said somewhat indignantly, seeing Xuanyuan Xuantian’s cool demeanor.

"Qing Liu Shimei, I am your senior, and I would also ask you to watch your own tone," Xuanyuan Xuantian coldly retorted.

"Forget it, Qing Liu," another woman beside her said with a smile and a shake of her head.

"Xuanyuan Shixiong is upset, we can understand.

We’re here to discuss some matters, it’s a Sect Gate instruction; there’s no ill will."

Xu Zimei glanced at that woman; she wore a pale golden robe, her hair, almost waist-length, coiled several times down her back.

Her features were exquisite, especially those clear, captivating eyes, seemingly untainted by a speck of impurity, exceptionally pure.

"Please enlighten me, Qing Xue Shimei," Xuanyuan Xuantian said with a light laugh.

"It seems somewhat inappropriate to discuss this here," Luo Qingsnow said with a smile, giving Xu Zimei a meaningful look.

"There’s nothing inappropriate; this person is my friend."

Xuanyuan Xuantian said indifferently, "Could it be that the Sect Gate would entrust me with anything important?"

It was actually no wonder Xuanyuan Xuantian felt this way; as a former Saint Heir, his status was now quite awkward.

Because of Luo Changfeng’s presence, everyone in the Sect Gate kept a distance from him.

After all, his hope for the position of Saint Heir was gone, but in his heart, he was not content with mediocrity, so it seemed very contradictory.

"Let’s all leave," said Luo Changfeng, without saying much else.

He pulled up a chair to sit down and began to speak indifferently, "You should be aware of the Southern Heaven Four Demons, right?"

Xuanyuan Xuantian nodded slightly.

The Southern Heaven Four Demons were four Loose Cultivators from the Eastern Continent, or more accurately, Evil Cultivators.

Their methods of cultivation were too cruel, hence they were targeted by many people.

However, these four were highly skilled in martial arts and elusive, making them hard for many pursuers to handle.

"Recently, the Southern Heaven Four Demons entered the territory of our Divine Sun Holy Sect and even slaughtered a village," Luo Changfeng said:

"The Sect Gate’s elders emerged from seclusion to hunt them down, killing three but one escaped.

I am ordered to hunt down that person, and according to my tracking and search along the way, I suspect he’s hiding around Sun-Chasing City."

"Who escaped?" Xuanyuan Xuantian asked.

Each of the Southern Heaven Four Demons was skilled in different domains, and he naturally wanted to know the specifics.

"It’s the Array Demon, Gongsun Hong," Luo Changfeng replied.

"Hence, I hope you can cooperate with us to capture this Gongsun Hong and restore peace to Sun-Chasing City."

"Sun-Chasing City is so large; if he truly hides, we will not be able to find him," Xuanyuan Xuantian mused for a moment before speaking.
