I Truly Am The Villian

"I never expected Flowing Wave Island to have an existence like you," Xu Zimei said with a light chuckle.

The peach tree did not answer; instead, it swayed its massive branches.

Like a horde of demons dancing wildly, every single branch carried endless might.

As peach blossoms poured down from the sky and fused with the branches, they sealed off Xu Zimei’s path.

"Peach Chain Lockheart," a soft shout was heard.

Immediately after, those peach tree branches that blocked Xu Zimei’s way astonishingly split into countless phantoms.

These phantoms, as if illusory, passed directly through Xu Zimei’s body, and a powerful force came forth, attempting to pull out Xu Zimei’s Divine Soul.

"Another attack aimed at the soul," Xu Zimei said with a light chuckle.

The peach tree itself did not have much offensive power, but it was doubly effective at bewildering the heart and attacking the Divine Soul.

"I didn’t want to go to the trouble of killing you, but since you’re courting death, don’t blame me," the woman said.

As the pull around the peach tree grew stronger, Xu Zimei’s entire body seemed to stiffen up.

Xu Zimei shook his head slightly. With the protection of the Nine Regions Grand Body, he was nearly impervious to any attack on his Divine Soul.

A furious roar from the guardian Divine Beast of the Nine Regions Grand Body accompanied the appearance of several Divine Beasts.

Howling Moon Wolf, Three Roar Leopard—they tore at the peach tree’s branches, their sharp teeth quickly severing them.

The peach tree, in pain, let out a somewhat ferocious roar.

The two guardian Divine Beasts were not willing to stop, they pounced directly towards the peach tree.

The peach tree seemed somewhat frightened and quickly reverted back to human form, swiftly ringing the golden bells in her hands, which sealed off the two Divine Beasts with a myriad of peach branches.

"Come back," Xu Zimei called softly.

The two guardian Divine Beasts hurriedly returned to the Nine Regions.

The Peach Blossom Fairy looked unsettled, her deep gaze resting on Xu Zimei as she said, "You can’t go into the Seven-Colored Waterfall."

"Why?" Xu Zimei asked.

"Immortal Liubo is in seclusion inside. If you disturb him, it will end badly for both of us," the woman said.

"Immortal Liubo?" Xu Zimei chuckled and asked, "Then who are you?"

"I am the Peach Blossom Fairy of Flowing Wave Island, duty-bound to protect the Immortal," the woman replied.

"You, an Ancestor of the Peach Trees, acting as a protector for an Immortal—this Immortal Liubo must be quite remarkable," Xu Zimei said.

"The Immortal and Flowing Wave Island have a symbiotic relationship; as long as the island has existed, so has the Immortal. Think about that," the woman said.

"With you saying that, I want to see him even more," Xu Zimei smiled.

He bypassed the woman and walked towards the colorful waterfall.

The woman could only fret from behind, powerless to intervene.

"I’ve said my piece; if you won’t listen, and something happens, don’t involve me," the woman behind him shouted reluctantly.

When Xu Zimei reached behind the colorful waterfall, he discovered that the water was actually from the Endless Heaven Sea.

The sea water flowed in from the other side of the island, traversing tens of thousands of kilometers before arriving here.

What was ordinary seawater seemed to have absorbed a trace of Immortal Qi after passing through some place, and had transformed into the colorful Immortal Water.

Xu Zimei crossed through the colorful waterfall to find a cobblestone path lined with trees ahead.

On both sides, various precious flowers and plants were grown.

A fragrant scent wafted towards him along the way.

Not far ahead, there was a thatched hut.

At that moment, a beam of light that reached to the heavens shone above the hut, while the earth around it transitioned in the manner of the sun, the moon, the stars, and the five elements of Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth.

This transformational method was only used around the hermit hut and didn’t involve any other place.

"Is the Immortal here?" Xu Zimei casually plucked a blade of grass, bit it between his lips, and walked towards the hermit hut while shouting out loud.

All around was still and quiet, with no one answering.

As Xu Zimei approached the hermit hut, suddenly there was a loud "clang" sound.

It was as if a formation had been activated, and a Tai Chi Diagram unfolded underneath his feet.

Yin and Yang transformed into the Five Elements, with the cycle of Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth spinning ceaselessly, eventually stopping on Water.

The entire Tai Chi Diagram turned into towering waves, surging tumultuously and blocking Xu Zimei’s approach to the hermit hut.

"The Immortal has patted my head, and I have tied my hair, pledging to eternal life," a long and clear voice sounded from the hermit hut.

Then came a slight "bang" sound.

A white-robed elder with white hair and a white beard, radiating thousands of feet of Immortal Qi, walked out from inside.

"What brings these young visitors to my Liubo Island?" the elder asked with a smile.

"I wanted to see the legendary Immortal," Xu Zimei replied.

"To find out if he is merely a charlatan, a trickster, or a true Immortal."

"’Immortal’ is just a term; people have different definitions of what an Immortal is.

I consider myself an Immortal, but that only represents my own thoughts and views," the elder said, shaking his head.

"Since you have come, it must be fate. I bestow upon you a divine token. If we are destined to meet again, we will, and then we can speak of opportunities."

The elder smiled as he stroked his long white beard, and with his other hand, he drew a half-circle in the air.

A token, brimming with white Spiritual Energy, slowly emerged and moved towards Xu Zimei’s forehead.

However, at the moment of contact with Xu Zimei, his Prison Suppressor Demon Body inside him reacted.

After activating the Demon Body, a red mark would appear on Xu Zimei’s forehead.

Now, stimulated by the Demon Body, the red mark flickered and directly devoured the token of Immortal Qi.

"This," the Immortal paused, his expression changing immediately.

"Remnants of the Demon Race," he muttered, his gaze becoming strange.

Xu Zimei, puzzled, looked at the Immortal Liubo. He could feel the killing intent hidden in his eyes.

"It’s truly like searching for a needle in a haystack," Immortal Liubo chuckled lightly.

He said, "You members of the Demon Race actually dare to come to my Immortal Island. How audacious!"

"Do we know each other?" Xu Zimei asked in confusion.

"Since you’re here, then stay; the Holy Ancestor will probably be very interested," Immortal Liubo chuckled again.

With a wave of his hand, he pressed down directly towards Xu Zimei.

Xu Zimei’s eyes narrowed, his right fist clenched, covered in the Creation Force, and he punched out forcefully, piercing through the hand.

"Somewhat skilled, no wonder you dare to come to my Liubo Island," Immortal Liubo snorted coldly.

"Shocking Waves."

The next moment, endless water extended from his body in every direction,

all the streams reaching for the sky and converging into numerous powerful tornadoes of water.

Dragons’ roars echoed around, and countless water storms surrounded Xu Zimei.

These tornadoes rose tens of meters high, each bearing a huge dragon head.

"Explode," Immortal Liubo commanded with a forceful shout.
