I am The Fated Villain

Chapter 1514: Rumors of Forbidden and Strange Lands, Greif and Anger

After Di Kun killed Chu Xiao, his figure transformed into a round pitch-black sun. He flapped his wings and pierced through the vast universe, departing from the Southern Wilderness Ancient Domain.

The area lay in devastation—mountains collapsed, rivers shattered, and all the lakes evaporated. The land farther away was left bare, pitch black, and completely flattened. This destruction was merely a consequence of Di Kun’s escaping aura; the larger universe in the distance had collapsed, leaving no intact remnants.

As the blood mist drifted across the sky, Chu Xiao’s true spirit was incinerated to ashes by the real fire of the sun, leaving nothing behind.

All the cultivators and creatures who witnessed this scene were shocked and trembling. From a distance, many figures gathered and stood in stunned silence. What they saw was enough to astonish them further and send shivers down their spines.

The Xi Yuan civilization was undoubtedly on the brink of great turmoil. Given Chu Gucheng’s vengeful nature, he would never let this go unpunished. Additionally, the demon court’s domineering stance was evident, as they did not hesitate to come forth to exact revenge on Xian Chu.

Xian Chu would surely send powerful individuals to uncover the cause and effect of this tragedy, drawing the Southern Wilderness Ancient Domain into the fray. Many cultivators worried whether Xian Chu would hold them accountable for failing to save his life.

The consequences of such an event were beyond what ordinary people could bear, especially since even the Dao Realm elder from Xian Chu had failed to protect Chu Xiao. Any efforts from the rest would have been futile.

Tonight was destined to be a sleepless one for the Southern Wilderness Ancient Domain. Countless cultivators and creatures engaged in discussions about the matter. The informants of various forces within the Southern Wilderness Ancient Domain quickly spread the news, sparking an uproar throughout the other great universes and worlds of the Xi Yuan civilization.

Zigui City was deeply shaken, and almost no cultivators could remain seated. The genius disciples of the most powerful forces, such as Zixiao Mountain, Yu Xian Palace, Lingshen Cave, and Guangming Temple, were equally stunned.

Zi Yunchuan, Zhao Tianfan, Daoist Mingying, Fairy Cai Yun, and others were immediately questioned by the forces behind them about what had transpired that night. After all, prior to this, there had been conflicts between them and Chu Xiao. From a certain perspective, Chu Xiao’s identity could be exposed, revealing connections between him and the others. It was inevitable that Xian Chu would involve them in this matter.

Of course, this did not imply that the forces behind them were afraid of Xian Chu. They simply did not want to attract unnecessary trouble or wade into murky waters at this time.

During this period, the most frequently asked questions centered around Gu Changge. Many forces were inquiring about his identity and origins, but the information they gathered was quite obscure. Zi Yunchuan, Zhao Tianfan, and the others hesitated to speak out easily, yet under the persistent questioning from the elders behind them, they were compelled to reveal some details, speculating that Gu Changge might be from a legendary forbidden and mysterious place.

Such news rapidly spread among the powerful forces, causing a significant sensation. In the Xi Yuan civilization, the legendary taboo and strange place had always been shrouded in mystery and remained largely unknown to the world.

Only a few words were recorded in some of the oldest classics and jade slips. Even for influential forces like Zixiao Mountain and Yu Xian Palace, their understanding of these topics was superficial. They knew that in extremely ancient times, the paths of many orthodox forces had existed at an extreme level. When faced with the certainty of life approaching its end and the inevitability of their paths being cut off, leading to death under the catastrophe of heavenly decline, they set out to seek those taboo and mysterious places in hopes of finding a new path and living anew.

However, no one knew whether those existences and former sages who sought out the way ultimately perished or succeeded in finding a new path. A significant reason those places were labeled as taboo and strange was their inherent danger and peculiarity; they were considered off-limits and could not be approached.

These lands existed not within the known world but drifted into illusory, lawless realms. Ordinary individuals could not reach them at all; if they accidentally ventured into such areas, they would face death and despair.

Of course, in the distant past, there were figures who emerged from these taboo and strange places. Only the oldest groups and forces within the Xi Yuan civilization had interactions with individuals from those realms. Some speculated that those forces and ethnic groups had gained tremendous benefits from such encounters and had established some form of agreement with those places.

Therefore, compared to the ongoing conflict between Xian Chu and the Demon Realm, the powerful factions were clearly more intrigued by Gu Changge, who was suspected to have emerged from a taboo and strange place.

As soon as they received this information, many forces began dispatching their strongest members to the Southern Wilderness Ancient Domain, hoping to visit Gu Changge and inquire about the mysterious realms.

These forces were cautious, however, as they learned that Gu Changge was accompanied by a terrifying servant who was close to the ancestral Dao Realm. Such a figure, regardless of which side he was on, was a person of high esteem and needed to be treated with utmost respect.

Yet, the fact that he was reduced to a servant at Gu Changge’s side prompted much speculation among various forces and orthodoxies.

The news from the Southern Wilderness Ancient Domain spread rapidly, particularly under the deliberate promotion of various forces, quickly reaching Xian Chu and the Endless Demon Realm.

In the distant kingdom of Xian Chu, in Chu Wang City, an earth-shattering roar erupted, causing all cultivators and creatures to tremble, instinctively wanting to kneel. Countless stars in the sky and on the earth quivered as if they were about to explode under this tremendous sound.

Suddenly, they beheld an incomparably stalwart figure appearing at the edge of the world. He wore a black robe and exuded a majestic demeanor, surrounded by countless lights from various realms. It seemed as though three thousand worlds were surrendering around him, making the figure appear taller than the universe itself, deserving of reverence from heaven and earth.

However, at that moment, this figure was consumed by rage; his eyes burned red, and his murderous aura soared skyward like a boundless wave threatening to tear the sky apart. All the cultivators and beings in Chu Wang City trembled and knelt before him.

Many were bewildered, uncertain of what had transpired. Why had their usually calm and majestic lord, Chu Gucheng, unleashed such an enraged roar as if he sought to shatter the heavens? They had never witnessed him act in such a manner, revealing the depths of his grief and fury.

After a long moment, the figure let out a lamenting sigh, and the dharma body gradually dissipated.
