I Truly Am The Villian

Xue Qianxue, after receiving instructions from Baili Xiao, hurried towards Qingyang Village.

According to Baili Xiao’s plan, they needed to bring Chu Yang to a safe place before Xu Zimei returned from the Holy Spring Sect.

Meanwhile, Elder Fanyun, accompanied by several disciples, rode the Cang Luan back to the Immortal Spirit Sect.

The death of the Saintess and the loss of the Ancestor of Wind’s legacy had enraged the entire Immortal Spirit Sect. Elder Xian Yun, the Great Elder of the Immortal Spirit Sect, personally came out of seclusion to handle the matter.

The entire Immortal Spirit Sect mobilized all its strength in the Extreme West Region to start the search for a village called Qingyang Village and a young man named Chu Yang.

The smaller sects backed by the Immortal Spirit Sect also began to assist in the search, which for them was an opportunity.

If they could be of help to the Immortal Spirit Sect, perhaps they could build a more solid relationship with them in the future.

In just half a day’s time, dozens of individuals, both with the name Chu Yang and with the same name as the village, had been found and personally interrogated by Elder Xian Yun.

…

After arriving at Qingyang Village as per Baili Xiao’s instructions, Xue Qianxue also found Coach Mo.

"He left?" Xue Qianxue looked at Coach Mo, asking in surprise.

"Yes, not long after Xiao’er left, Yang’s cultivation progressed by leaps and bounds. I introduced him to an army camp in Mysterious Yuan City to seek out a friend of mine, but I don’t know how he’s doing now," nodded Coach Mo.

Then he asked, "Xiao’er is doing well in the True Martial Holy Sect, right?"

"She’s doing quite well," nodded Xue Qianxue, pondering for a moment before saying to Coach Mo, "If anyone comes asking about Chu Yang, just say you don’t know anything. Absolutely do not reveal his whereabouts."

Coach Mo glanced at Xue Qianxue. In his youth, he had been a servant in Mysterious Yuan City and had experienced many deceitful matters.

The world is always mired in murkiness, Coach Mo nodded and replied, "I understand, I’m just a coach of a small village, what could I possibly know."

"That’s good," Xue Qianxue nodded, thanked him, and was about to leave.

At that moment, a powerful oppressive force enveloped the entire Qingyang Village.

Xue Qianxue looked up to see several dark silhouettes blocking out the sky above, these were several gigantic Green luans.

The pressure of fifth-level Monster Beasts emanated, causing the entire space to tremble and shake.

Above the Green luans, Elder Xian Yun and Elder Fanyun stood at the forefront, their purple robes fluttering, their gazes cold and indifferent, and their expressions serene.

Next to them stood a man in a white and blue striped long robe.

"Elder Xian Yun, ahead is Qingyang Village, but I don’t know if it’s the one you’re looking for. I’ll go down and ask," the man said with an eager smile.

This man, named Shen Qiu, was the Sect Leader of a local sect, so insignificant it couldn’t even be called a third-rate power.

Today, he just received a notice from the Immortal Spirit Sect to the entire Extreme West Region. Although he didn’t know Chu Yang, there indeed was a village called Qingyang Village near their Sect Gate.

He knew this was a chance for his sect. If they could use this to get close to the colossal Immortal Spirit Sect, even if they couldn’t share in the main bounty, even the leftovers would be immensely beneficial to them.

He quickly reported this matter to the Immortal Spirit Sect, but to his surprise, they took the issue more seriously than he anticipated, with the Great Elder of the Immortal Spirit Sect personally leading the team to investigate.

…

Shen Qiu leaped down from the Green luan, descending directly towards where Xue Qianxue and the others were.

"I’d like to ask all of you, is there a young man named Chu Yang in our village?" Shen Qiu looked at the crowd, smiling as he asked.

"Who are you?" Xue Qianxue asked warily.

"I am Chu Yang’s Master, the Sect Leader of the Little Sword Sect next to Qingyang Village," Shen Qiu said with a smile, "Chu Yang is a disciple I recently took in. He’s very intelligent, and I initially planned to cultivate him with great effort.

However, he has gone missing these past few days, and I fear for his safety. I have searched many places but have found no trace of him.

I happened to hear him mention once that his hometown was Qingyang Village, but there are many villages by that name in the Extreme West Region, so I can only try my luck here."

"Chu Yang went to the Little Sword Sect?" Xue Qianxue asked in surprise, almost reflexively.

"Oh, you know Chu Yang?" Shen Qiu’s eyes lit up as he quickly asked.

"We don’t know him," Coach Mo quickly shook his head and responded.

The Little Sword Sect was a small sect nearby Qingyang Village that he knew of, but it seemed that the strongest in the sect was only at the Empty Vein Realm.

Coach Mo wasn’t foolish, the several Green luan beasts flying in the sky were not merely at the Empty Vein Realm, he was certain that there was more to the situation than met the eye.

Hearing Coach Mo’s words, Xue Qianxue realized she had misspoken earlier.

"You don’t need to deny it, I have already heard it, and besides, I am not a bad person," Shen Qiu said with a smile.

"You heard wrong, we really don’t know who Chu Yang is," Coach Mo quickly shook his head and said.

Shen Qiu gave them a deep look, then rose into the air and landed on the back of a Green luan.

"How is it?" Elder Fanyun asked Shen Qiu.

"The people here are quite cautious, but I am quite certain that this village indeed has a young man named Chu Yang. However, I do not know if he is the one you are looking for," Shen Qiu replied respectfully.

"That’s enough," the Elder Xian Yun in the front said indifferently.

There may be many young men named Chu Yang in the Extreme West Region, and many small villages called Qingyang Village.

But being named Chu Yang and living in Qingyang Village, that possibility becomes extremely slim.

...

The group from the Immortal Spirit Sect descended from the sky, their powerful aura enveloping the entire Qingyang Village. From her high position, Elder Xian Yun coldly said, "I will give you 15 minutes to disclose Chu Yang’s whereabouts. Otherwise..."

Elder Xian Yun paused for a moment, her tone chilling as she uttered two words: "Eradicate the village."

"May I ask who you are? What has our Qingyang Village done to offend you?" Coach Mo, facing the imposing Elder Xian Yun, mustered up the courage to step forward and ask.

Elder Xian Yun merely glanced at him indifferently, her eyes seemingly indifferent to the lives of mortals, as if she were looking at an ant.

With just that one look, Coach Mo felt a freezing of his soul, as if he could not even breathe, almost suffocating.

"I am from the True Martial Holy Sect, who are you?" Xue Qianxue quickly stood up and said.

At this time, she could only hope that the identity of a disciple of the True Martial Holy Sect might have some effect.

Elder Xian Yun’s eyebrows slightly furrowed as she looked at Xue Qianxue and said in a cold voice, "Do we need the permission of the True Martial Holy Sect to eradicate a village?"

For Elder Xian Yun, whether Qingyang Village was the place they were looking for did not matter.

They would rather wrongfully kill a thousand than let even one escape.
