I am The Fated Villain

Chapter 916: You called me to clean up the mess? Uninvited Guest from the Upper Realm

Those things are no longer significant.

I don’t mind his background or his past.

What matters is that Changge treats me well now, and that’s enough for me.

Jiang Chuchu focused on preparing tea. A slight smile on her fair and delicate cheeks revealed two light dimples. freeweɓnvel.com

She seldom smiled in the outside world, and even Wang Ziji rarely witnessed her dimples. Historically, Jiang Chuchu portrayed herself as an unapproachable and aloof figure. A Heavenly being untouched by worldly matters.

A century had passed in the blink of an eye—a mere moment for a terrible cultivator like Jiang Chuchu. Over these hundreds of years, she had indeed undergone considerable changes.

Wang Ziji, familiar with her, knew that Jiang Chuchu had never displayed such a satisfied and joyful expression before. This contentment represented a form of happiness for her.

What a contented little fool.

If that guy Gu Changge lied to you, he’s truly heartless.

Wang Ziji, regaining her composure, placed her hands flat on the stone table. Her head was buried in her hands. Her black hair hung down as she muttered softly.

Her voice was low, and only the sound of boiling tea and mist prevailed in the tranquil palace.

Jiang Chuchu looked at her inquisitively and asked, “Oh? What were you talking about?”

“I didn’t say anything. Just make your tea,” Wang Ziji replied in a subdued tone, not bothering to lift her eyelids to meet Jiang Chuchu’s gaze.

Jiang Chuchu, astute as ever, could discern some unspoken thoughts. During their time at the True Immortal Academy, Wang Ziji had, on multiple occasions, inquired about Jiang Chuchu’s relationship with Gu Changge.

Back then, she didn’t give much thought to it; she assumed Wang Ziji was curious about Gu Changge. Reflecting on it now, weren’t those questions a form of subtle temptation?

Unintentionally, the palace fell silent; the two women were lost in their contemplations.

Wang Ziji gazed at the steaming tea, feeling a sense of inexplicable unease. “Do you have any wine? Let’s just drink,” she suggested, raising her eyes and tapping the table.

“I don’t handle alcohol well, so I’ll pass,” Jiang Chuchu declined firmly.

Wang Ziji scoffed, “Who are you kidding? I still remember the first time we drank. You had the audacity to pilfer the wine brewed by the third elder and persuaded me to join you. That was your rebellious phase.”

“Really? I’ve forgotten,” Jiang Chuchu replied calmly, her face slightly reddened but not admitting to it.

“I don’t care. I’m in a bad mood today, and you’re drinking with me,” Wang Ziji insisted, staring at her. She seemingly produced a cup of wine out of nowhere and opened it before Jiang Chuchu.

The rich fragrance of the wine permeated the air, filling the palace with its intoxicating aroma. It resembled pure immortal wine—crystal clear, possessing the essence of emerald jade, as if it condensed all the world’s essence into a single cup.

“What kind of wine is this?” Jiang Chuchu asked in surprise.

“This is a wine only qualified for immortal kings,” Wang Ziji smiled, recalling that this was the immortal wine she requested from the Moon King Palace in the name of Gu Changge. She vividly remembered being intoxicated for seven days and nights after just a sip, experiencing a significant improvement in her cultivation. When she asked Moon King for it, Moon King seemed reluctant.

Wang Ziji, using the name of Gu Changge, gritted her teeth, and Moon reluctantly provided her with a jar of wine.

“Immortal kings-only wine?” Jiang Chuchu expressed curiosity but remained skeptical.

Wang Ziji grinned maliciously, saying, “You’ll find out after you’ve had a taste.”

Being an old friend, Wang Ziji was aware of Jiang Chuchu’s capacity for alcohol. Inebriation often led her to reveal some truths. Wang Ziji planned to leverage this to extract information. If Jiang Chuchu resisted, Wang Ziji had a photo stone prepared in advance. She intended to reveal it in front of Gu Changge, confident that Jiang Chuchu would have no choice but to explain everything truthfully.

With this strategy in mind, Wang Ziji displayed a sly smile. She produced the sound transmission stone she obtained from Gu Changge and promptly contacted him.

“Come to the human ancestor hall.”

Her brief message offered no further explanation, and she didn’t wait for Gu Changge’s response.

Soon, the hall was filled with the rich aroma of wine. The void blurred, ripples spread, and Gu Changge, taking a step, materialized in the hall.

“Did you summon me to clean up the mess?” he inquired, surveying the scene.

The air was thick with the scent of wine, Wang Ziji and Jiang Chuchu appeared quite intoxicated—one sprawled on the stone table, the other lifting her snow-white neck, pouring wine into her mouth with a touch of heroism.

Under normal circumstances, Gu Changge would have found this scene pleasing. However, this time, it was Wang Ziji who was drunk, and surprisingly, it was Jiang Chuchu drinking the wine. It gave him a mild headache.

…

Simultaneously, an uninvited guest arrived at the Ancient Immortal Wang family’s ancestral land.

“The old man greets the young master of the Wang Family from the Immortal Domain.”

In the grand hall, numerous ancestral figures of the Ancient Immortal Wang family appeared, causing a significant stir.

Furthermore, high-ranking officials such as clan elders and esteemed figures hurriedly joined the gathering. The remaining members of the Wang family stood outside the main hall, their expressions a mix of shock and curiosity.

Within the hall, a young man adorned in a graceful blue gown stood with folded hands. By his side was an older man who had attained the true immortal realm. The young man exuded an air of elegance and kindness, his smiling countenance conveying humility and courtesy. Immortal energy enveloped his entire being, creating an aura of detachment. Radiance emanated from the tips of his hair, resembling a true exiled immortal.

Although the laws of heaven and earth constrained the older man beside him and couldn’t fully showcase the might of an immortal figure, in the current Upper Realm. He stood as a peerless master capable of overseeing all beings and cultivators.

The appearance of these two prominent figures in the Ancient Immortal Wang family stirred awe and astonishment. Several background figures made their presence known, paying their respects without neglect.

The Wang family members, both officials and commoners, felt a surge of excitement. This young man was introduced as the young master of the Immortal Wang family from the Immortal Domain.

Countless years ago, the ancestors of the Wang family had ascended to the Immortal Domain, leaving behind a lineage that flourished into the current Wang Family in the Immortal Domain.

According to the young man, claiming to be the young master of the Wang family, the Immortal Wang family boasted true immortal power, with two Immortal King Patriarchs at its helm. While Wang Ziji, who had returned from the Immortal Domain to the Upper Realm, had mentioned this earlier, it was a fact known to everyone in the Wang family.

However, the bloodlines of the two realms had been separated for countless years, and though they shared the Wang family name, it was assumed that the bloodline had likely thinned over time. Therefore, the notion of returning to the Immortal Domain to acknowledge their ancestors had not been entertained by the Ancient Immortal Wang family.

Yet, the sudden appearance of the young man, asserting his identity as the young master of the Wang family from the Immortal Domain, sparked excitement and anticipation throughout the Ancient Immortal Wang family.

If the recognition of ancestors and the merging of the two bloodlines were to happen, the Wang family’s strength would undoubtedly experience a qualitative leap. With two Immortal King Patriarchs, the Immortal Family would become a formidable force in the Upper Realm, second only to the Divine Kingdom, where immortal figures were present.

“You don’t need to be too polite,” Ni Chen, the young man in the hall occupying Wang Wushang’s body, spoke with a smile. He signaled that everyone need not be overly cautious. After leaving the Immortal Realm, Ni Chen hurried to the Ancient Immortal Wang’s house, traversing the upper realm despite the discomfort imposed by its laws. With an older man in the true immortal realm by his side, he felt relatively secure.

Ni Chen had come to the Ancient Immortal Wang family to meet Wang Ziji and discuss certain matters. In the vast battlefield, Wang Ziji’s timely rescue had played a crucial role in his current state. Some things needed to be addressed in person, and Ni Chen gained insights into Wang Ziji during his time in the Wang family of the Immortal Domain.

Wang Ziji, not originally from the Immortal Domain, had been brought up from the upper realm by the Immortal King ancestor of the Wang family. Her ethereal and captivating presence had stirred Ni Chen’s long-muted heart. Unable to relinquish these feelings easily, he had to address matters in person.

“I don’t know why the young master of the Wang family came to the Upper Realm?” the several ancestors of the Wang family cut to the chase, avoiding unnecessary pleasantries. The rest of the tribe eagerly awaited the purpose behind “Wang Wushang’s” visit.

Among the onlookers, Wang Wushuang, Wang Ziji’s younger brother, fixed his gaze on the young master of the Wang family, intrigued by the unfolding events.

Hearing this, Ni Chen smiled faintly and said, “I came to this world because I wanted to find my cousin Ziji for something.” After all, his present identity was Wang Ziji’s nominal cousin.

“Looking for Ziji?” The Wang family members were momentarily taken aback, and then it dawned on them, their expressions reflecting a mix of surprise and understanding.

Many clan members even seemed as if they had long suspected this connection. Given Wang Ziji’s extended residence in the Immortal Domain, it wasn’t far-fetched for her to encounter the young master of the Wang family.

Several Wang family ancestors exchanged glances, respectfully cupped their hands, and explained, “To be honest, the young master of the Wang family, Ziji, is currently not in the clan. She did stay with us for a while after returning to the upper realm from the Immortal Domain. However, she left the Wang family later, and we are unaware of her current whereabouts.”

Not in the clan?

Ni Chen was momentarily surprised. The smile on his face faded, his brows furrowed, as he inquired, “Seniors, do you have any idea where Cousin Ziji might be?”

Reluctance clouded the faces of several Wang family ancestors. They didn’t possess much information about Wang Ziji. After her recovery, she had been taken to the Immortal Realm. Upon her return to the upper realm, she hadn’t engaged in extensive conversations with them. Their relationship could only be average, not even reaching the acquaintance level.

“It’s possible that my sister has gone to the Human Ancestor Hall,” Wang Wushuang, Wang Ziji’s younger brother, interjected calmly. Unlike his demeanor in the past, he appeared more composed now.

He believed that his sister, upon her return to the Wang family, had inquired about various occurrences over the years. One topic she frequently discussed was the matter of the Human Ancestor Hall.

The Human Ancestor Hall? What kind of power is that?

Ni Chen still wore a puzzled expression. Before leaving the Immortal Domain, he had gathered information about the forces in the Upper Realm, including the Divine Kingdom established by the Demon Lord and various other formidable entities. However, the Human Ancestor Hall was unfamiliar to him.

“It’s the sect Ziji revered in her youth, holding a transcendent status in the upper realm,” a Wang family elder respectfully replied.

Despite their lack of knowledge about Wang Wushang’s intentions, they didn’t dare to disregard him.

Ni Chen nodded, not waiting for the elder to elaborate. Waving his hand, he said, “In that case, I won’t trouble you further. I’ll personally go to this so-called Human Ancestor Hall to find my cousin Ziji.”

Turning to Wang Wushuang, he asked, “Who are you in relation to Ziji?”

Wang Wushuang replied respectfully, “Wang Ziji is my sister.” His attitude conveyed a deep respect, recognizing the significance of his family’s connection to the Immortal King family in the Immortal Domain.

The status held by “Wang Wushang” was notably distinct from that of the Wang family members.

“That’s great. You can lead the way then,” Ni Chen nodded, not allowing Wang Wushuang to decline. Despite being Wang Ziji’s younger brother, Wang Wushuang was merely a resident of the upper realm, not commanding too much of Ni Chen’s attention.

The expressions of everyone in the Wang family, including Wang Wushuang, underwent a subtle change. Men had traditionally been barred from entering the Human Ancestor Hall, and such regulations extended to the surrounding territories.

Additionally, the Human Ancestor Hall was closely linked to Gu Changge, the co-ruler of the Upper Realm and the Immortal Domain. Attempts to explain these intricacies by the old ancestor were cut short by “Wang Wushang’s” dismissive gesture.

Subsequently, a golden Dao of light emanated from the territory of the Wang family, the sound of the Dao resounding and shaking the skies, echoing across the universe. Cultivators and beings in the neighboring star fields were taken aback, observing this spectacle.

Ni Chen stood tall as the golden Dao-building expert , an aura of immortal light enveloping him, exuding an air of aloofness. The true immortal realm older man at his side remained silent, cold, and indifferent, regarding everyone with the dispassionate gaze reserved for insignificant beings.

While some individuals had attained Dao-building expertise in the current Upper Realm, achieving true immortality was exceedingly rare. The most expedited route involved the List of Immortals within the Divine Kingdom, allowing one to immediately transcend life and attain immortality.

However, following the significant environmental changes in the world, fewer cultivators opted for this path. Apart from the Divine Kingdom, no other forces reported the appearance of immortal figures.

However, the golden road, reflecting against the starry sky, traversed the Ancient Immortal Wang family’s territory, capturing the attention of all forces.

“That’s Wang Wushuang from the Wang family, but who is that young man beside him? A face unfamiliar to us? Could he be a prominent figure from the lower realm of the Immortal Domain?”

The old man with him must possess a cultivation surpassing Dao-building expertise, distorting the laws around him.

There’s also an old servant from the Immortal Domain following him. What could be the origin of this young man?

Cultivators engaged in discussions, expressing shock and surprise. Although immortal beings had indeed emerged from the lower realms in recent times, they primarily sought to temper the younger generation.

They kept a low profile, attempting to conceal their presence. Today’s display, using golden light as a road to shake the universe, prompted speculation among cultivators, leading them to ponder the identity of the unfamiliar-faced young man.
