I Really Am A Villain

“Set conditions?” Xu Zimo shook his head and laughed.

“Why the hell does everyone think I’m some beggar who can be sent away with a few scraps?”

His eyes were sharp, and Shadow Tyrant in his hand let out a low roar.

“On what basis do you think that whatever your Divine Court can offer is something our True Martial Sacred Ground doesn’t already have?”

Hearing Xu Zimo’s words, the divine envoy remained calm, his voice neither joyful nor angry.

“This is the Primal God Overlord’s decree. I am only responsible for delivering it. If you refuse, then you will bear all consequences yourself.”

Xu Zimo sneered.

“Then trouble yourself to go back and tell your so-called Primal God Overlord this. To me, his words are nothing but a load of shit.”

The moment these words were spoken, everyone present turned pale.

In the Grand Desolate Heaven, someone actually dared to insult the Primal God Overlord in front of the Divine Court.

This was truly courting death.

“I’m rather curious about the Divine Court’s current stance,” God-Eye Dao Lord said with a smile.

“Do you intend to become enemies and go to war with our True Martial Sacred Ground, just for the sake of a single Three Blossoms cultivator? Go back and tell the Primal God Overlord that the Divine Court has ruled for too long and may have forgotten who it really is. Before we launch our campaign against High Heaven, do you believe we wouldn’t first raze your Divine Court to the ground?”

The divine envoy’s face shifted between red and pale yellow.

It had been a very long time since he had seen people this audacious.

In the past, anyone from the Divine Court was treated with utmost respect wherever they went.

Still, the envoy was not foolish. He said, “Then wait here. I will report this to the Primal God Overlord. Of course, any consequences arising from this will be yours to bear.”

After delivering these harsh words, the envoy departed.

Heavenly Dragon Dao Lord was terrified.

“Envoy, please save me!” he shouted.

Xu Zimo held Shadow Tyrant and walked toward Heavenly Dragon Dao Lord step by step.

Although Heavenly Dragon Dao Lord was seriously injured, a Three Blossoms powerhouse still retained combat strength.

Xu Zimo might not necessarily be his match.

Yet Heavenly Dragon Dao Lord seemed completely shaken. A dignified Three Blossoms cultivator kept retreating, trying to enter the Divine Gate.

Giant Mountain hesitated, then stepped in front of Xu Zimo.

“Wait for the Primal God Overlord’s decree. You cannot touch him yet,” he said.

“That is your Primal God Overlord. What does he have to do with me?” Xu Zimo retorted.

The power of Shadow Tyrant in his hand grew stronger and stronger, as if it would devour everything.

Giant Mountain’s expression darkened and shifted.

He could only say, “If you want to kill him, waiting a little longer won’t hurt, will it?”

“Do you no longer want your remaining two flowers?” Xu Zimo countered.

Earlier, Giant Mountain had burned one flower to escape from the two of them.

Hearing this, his face immediately turned ugly.

“Don’t be arrogant. This is not the True Martial Sacred Ground. This is our Divine Court. Know where you stand. If the Divine Court truly wants to kill you, do you think the True Martial Sacred Ground can arrive in time to save you?”

“Then let’s try,” God-Eye Dao Lord said calmly.

The situation fell into a deadlock.

Xu Zimo continued walking toward Heavenly Dragon Dao Lord, while Giant Mountain hesitated in place.

If he fought, he alone would not be enough. He would have to call on the divine soldiers and generals.

But that would mean completely tearing apart relations with the True Martial Sacred Ground.

Moreover, judging from the current situation, the Divine Court did not actually wish to break with the True Martial Sacred Ground.

And if it truly came to a confrontation, who would be stronger was far from certain.

With that thought, Giant Mountain did not move.

Xu Zimo had already slashed out with his blade.

Boom.

Under this strike, Heavenly Dragon Dao Lord fled desperately into the distance.

He had no will to fight at all.

“Divine Court, you stand by and watch me die,” Heavenly Dragon Dao Lord shouted.

“For all these years, even if the Eighteen Blade Purgatory had no merit, we surely endured hardship for you! If this is how it ends, who will dare remain loyal to the Divine Court in the future?”

At this moment, God-Eye Dao Lord let out a soft shout.

Terrifying Flames of Heavenly Loathing surged up, blazing fiercely.

This was a flame hated even by heaven and earth, capable of devouring all things.

If Heavenly Dragon Dao Lord had fought desperately, he might have held out for a short while.

But he was so afraid of death that once the flames ignited, his collapse was inevitable.

The Flames of Heavenly Loathing burned fiercely.

Heavenly Dragon Dao Lord lost another flower, only then managing to break free from the flames.

In Xu Zimo’s eyes, the so-called Three Blossoms of an Infinite Dao powerhouse were equivalent to three lives.

To kill such a being, all three flowers had to be destroyed.

Sure enough, the stronger the existence, the harder it was to kill.

Seeing Heavenly Dragon Dao Lord escape death once more, Xu Zimo and God-Eye Dao Lord pursued relentlessly.

“Enough.”

At that moment, a majestic voice rang out.

Rumble, rumble.

Powerful auras spread throughout the interior of the Divine Court.

Immediately after, countless phenomena appeared.

A magnificent divine palace rose into the sky, its reflection projected into the void.

Within the palace stood countless rows of Primal Gods.

The Primal God Overlord sat high upon his throne, his expression stern and domineering.

His power was enough to suppress all things.

These “gods” were not a realm of cultivation but titles they had bestowed upon themselves.

The Eastern Splendour God spoke. He belonged to the militant faction, his powerful aura surging.

“True Martial Sacred Ground, know when to stop. Do not challenge our authority again and again.”

“Shouldn’t I be saying that to the Divine Court instead?” Xu Zimo replied calmly.

“This is a conflict between us and the Eighteen Blade Purgatory. Is your Divine Court determined to force its way in?”

From above, the Primal God Overlord spoke coldly.

“Boy, whether we intervene is not for you to decide. The True Martial Sacred Ground is not ruled by you alone. Seize this insolent fool and summon the True Martial Progenitor to come and demand his release.”

Once the Primal God Overlord spoke, many fell silent.

With a single decree, all was decided.

As his words fell, rumbling thunder echoed.

From the illusory scene, hundreds of figures stepped through the void. All of them radiated Infinite Dao pressure.

Among them were even several Three Blossoms powerhouses.

Seeing this, Xu Zimo smiled faintly and looked toward God-Eye Dao Lord.

God-Eye Dao Lord formed seals with both hands, power surging violently.

Boom.

The seals exploded apart.

There, a projection of the True Martial Sacred Ground appeared.

The True Martial Progenitor took the lead, with others following closely behind.

They too were numerous Infinite Dao cultivators, facing the Divine Court from afar.

“Primal God Overlord,” the True Martial Progenitor said, his gaze carrying crushing suppressive force.

The two seemed to clash across layers of void, their powers grinding against one another.

“Xu Zimo’s words represent the will of our True Martial Sacred Ground,” the True Martial Progenitor said.

“Are you going to wage war against us?”

“True Martial Progenitor, you forget your place,” the Primal God Overlord snorted. “If we were to cooperate with the Heavenly Court, do you truly think your True Martial Sacred Ground could stand against us? So leave yourself some leeway. Do not bring death upon yourself.”

The Primal God Overlord clearly understood that the Divine Court alone was not necessarily a match for the True Martial Sacred Ground.

Thus, from the very beginning, he placed them on equal footing.
