I Am the Fated Villain

Chapter 878: The sudden change is simply bold

Furthermore, the girl before him hailed from that era and had been sealed away indefinitely. It wasn’t until modern times that she awoke from the deepest forbidden area of the Ao clan.

Regarding seniority, Immortal King Ao Di didn’t exaggerate in calling her a little ancestor; it could even be considered an honor. Ao Ling was the heir of the Dragon Ancestor, renowned as the progenitor of myriad dragons. While the current Ao clan possessed its blood, the pure dragon bloodline was absent.

Even the first-generation ancestor of the Ao clan would respectfully address Ao Ling as “Old Ancestor.” Despite being a peerless Immortal King, Ao Di immensely respected her and safeguarded her every step, viewed by outsiders as an expression of deep affection for his junior. The tribe remained unaware of Ao Ling’s true identity.

“If the little ancestor recognizes this person, then I won’t be concerned,” said Immortal King Ao Di. Despite Ao Ling appearing seemingly powerless, her true capabilities were unfathomable. Her body concealed an immensely potent force that nearly brought Ao Di to his knees when it was first revealed.

Moreover, based on the information shared by Ao Ling, many creatures from the age of ancient mythology were poised to return. Although the current state of the immortal domain was chaotic, it wouldn’t significantly impact the overall situation in the future. Beyond this world, supreme beings observed everything, biding their time for the opportune moment.

“I would be delighted to meet this individual. In this era, even though immortal ages seem empty, we can still encounter people from the past,” Ao Ling remarked, shaking her head slightly. She then clapped her hands and proceeded toward the depths of the immortal bamboo forest, where white mist floated and pavilions awaited guests.

However, the innermost part of the Dao platform remained bathed in brilliance, veiled in a chaotic aura that obscured clear vision. The Moon King had already instructed the maids to prepare tea for the guests, giving the place an atmosphere reminiscent of ancient gatherings to discuss Dao-building experts.

Friends who hadn’t seen each other for years reminisced, evoking emotions on the faces of many genuine immortals.

“Who would have imagined such a day would come? I heard even the formidable Immortal King might face liquidation.”

“Contrary to that, we might have a better chance of survival in this chaos.”

“Regarding the vision of heaven and earth from yesterday, after perusing ancient texts, it seems to involve a distant and boundless land. What major events might the Immortal Realm face in the future?”

Conversations paused as Immortal King Ao Di approached with Ao Ling. On the one hand, the observers were curious about Immortal King Ao Di’s evident care for his descendant, keeping her by his side at all times. On the other hand, they fell silent as the duo neared.

On each hill, numerous cultivators sat cross-legged, forming a densely packed assembly of heroes. The cultivators specializing in humanism were particularly noteworthy, standing out as the best among various ethnic groups. The figure, seemingly at the pinnacle of the immortal Dao, stood prominently near the Dao platform.

Immortal King Ao Di had a dedicated pavilion for rest, where his tribe members waited. Surprisingly, the Moon King’s figure had yet to appear. Instead, more streams of light descended outside the mansion, bringing prominent figures from various immortal domains.

Among them was a familiar face to Immortal King Ao Di, an old Immortal King from the Eastern Immortal Domain named Immortal King Gu Xuan. Accompanied by two apprentices, a man and a woman, both had reached the true immortal realm, with one poised to become an Immortal King, given sufficient time.

The Eastern Immortal Domain boasted a limited number of Immortal Kings. With the arrival of Immortal King Ao Di and Immortal King Gu Xuan, they nearly reached the pinnacle of power in that domain.

Soon after, the Immortal King from the Northern Immortal Realm joined them, forming a trio. An older man with white hair and a beard, Ku Yin, Immortal King, stood alongside a red-haired Immortal King named Chi Lian Wang and another one called Chu Kun.

These three Immortal Kings hailed from the Northern Immortal Realm, accompanied by numerous followers, including real immortals and Dao-building experts, though no young descendants were among them.

Is the Moon King not attending?

When can we expect her?

Old Immortal King Gu Xuan from the Eastern Immortal Realm inquired politely, displaying kindness toward the Moon Palace servants.

Responding respectfully, the Moon Palace servants informed, “Reporting to the Immortal King, His Majesty the Moon King has instructed us to arrange an immortal banquet, but we do not know when she will make an appearance.” The servants, facing the gaze of several Immortal Kings, were visibly nervous.

The Immortal Kings present refrained from commenting on this. They either sipped tea, rested with closed eyes, or engaged in quiet conversations. The Moon King’s presence was not their primary focus; instead, they sought to assess the safety of the Hongmen Banquet.

Unexpectedly, an ancient Immortal King from a secluded area in the Eastern Immortal Domain descended, surprising everyone. The existence of individuals in that restricted area had been almost written off, especially by Immortal King Ao Di and Old Immortal King Gu Xuan.

Since it is the lord’s command, how could the old man dare not come?

This elderly Immortal King from the restricted life area emitted a decaying aura, not in peak condition like the other Immortal Kings. Grinning, his voice resembled the ancient creaking of a drying tree.

Could it be that the Central Immortal Realm has no intention to comply with the order?

As time passed, the figure from the Central Immortal Domain remained absent, prompting speculation and varied expressions among the Immortal Kings. Some had deep contemplation in their eyes, while others sat in silence.

Speculation arose among the gathering, suggesting a prior decree from a foreign land that had reached the Central Immortal Domain. The two sides were engaged in discussions on how to address the matter.

“Could it be that the foreign land is planning to join forces with the Central Immortal Domain?” Some Immortal Kings couldn’t help but ponder this possibility.

Boom!

Suddenly, a nebulous figure ascended at the farthest reaches of the universe, overseeing the immortal universe and casting a dominating aura within the star field’s depths. The entire world quivered, and a pervasive sense of mourning enveloped everything. Countless creatures knelt in worship, even true immortals feeling a slight unease.

An Immortal King? But the aura is unusual.

Several Immortal Kings in the Moon King Palace turned their attention simultaneously, furrowing their brows with alertness and incredulity.

Is someone daring to make a move at this time?

It’s quite audacious.

Immortal King Ao Di narrowed his eyes, rising from the pavilion and peering into the distance. Beside him, Ao Ling expressed a surprised and intrigued expression, saying, “This isn’t the real body of the Immortal King, but a faith-condensed form obtained at great cost.” While gathering faith in a Dao Body wasn’t challenging, ensuring its combat power matched that of an Immortal King was difficult.

The atmosphere grew tense as everyone awaited the unfolding events.

The terrible figure that emerged in the distance surpassed the strength of most Immortal Kings. The aura emanated was chaotic, making it challenging to discern the true identity of the entity. The startling development left all Moon Palace guests in shock, disbelief across their faces.

Ordinary beings couldn’t resist the compulsion to kneel at this moment. Attempting to kowtow in that direction proved impossible, given the overwhelming coercion from the deliberately elusive Immortal King.

“It seems to have been condensed using some mysterious forbidden weapon, and there is more than just an Immortal King behind it…” Ao Ling remarked, offering her insight.

Boom!

Another phantom materialized in that area, its form hazy and indistinct, yet it stood tall, appearing as if it had transformed from a Dao Body. It gazed upon the universe, overseeing the ages.

Then, in that same area, another terrifying aura manifested, and an immortal light tore through the universe, resembling the indifferent eyes of a supreme being. A formidable energy that shook the universe spread out, covering the sky and the earth. For a moment, hundreds of millions of star fields quivered in response.
