Great Villain: Starting by Humiliating the Son of the Heavenly Fate - Chapter 129

Chapter 129: Nangong Wan and Shangguan Ning Chapter 129: Nangong Wan and Shangguan Ning Guided by Rong Liangcai and his group, Jiang Chen finally reached his temporary home-a secluded manor tucked between two towering peaks.

The area had an undeniable charm, filled with a dense concentration of spiritual Qi, creating an atmosphere of tranquil peace.

After a short pause, Rong Liangcai and his companions politely said their goodbyes and departed.

Upon entering the manor, Jiang Chen quickly activated the protective formation.

He looked around, observing the overall layout and design of the place.

He then walked over to a table in the center and sat down.

First on his list of things to do, he utilized a special feature of his Eternal Vows Binding Ring to contact his wives in the Everflowing Truth Northern Domain, letting them know he had safely arrived at the Purple Heaven Holy Land.

After sending the message, Jiang Chen went back to his thoughts, his hand automatically moving to his chin.

‘Fang Yuan’s cultivation base has significantly weakened, and he’s now just a shadow of his former self, largely ignored and often blatantly overlooked,’ he mused.

‘Still, I believe he is likely to make a dramatic comeback in the upcoming selection competition for the Holy Son’s position.’ He was certain about this possibility.

As the protagonist, Fang Yuan definitely had an extraordinary trick up his sleeve that would allow him to quickly ascend to the Heavenly Origin realm once more.

‘So, considering this,’ Jiang Chen thought, his mind buzzing with potential scenarios, ‘I need to be cautious until I find out more about Fang Yuan’s secret advantage.’ Additionally, there was another factor he needed to consider.

In the original story, Ji Ruxue might become fascinated by Fang Yuan’s surprising rise in the competition for the Holy Son’s position, potentially developing a budding interest in him.

‘If this woman starts taking an interest in the protagonist,’ Jiang Chen reminded himself sternly, ‘it could cause problems.

I need to attract Ji Ruxue’s attention towards myself, overshadowing Fang Yuan.’ At the same time, as these different thoughts competed for attention in his mind, he extended his divine sense into the storage ring that Ji Mingxiu had given him, keen to check the welcoming gifts inside.

The ring’s inner space was not very large, nor was it overflowing with items.

Yet, if anyone else saw what it contained, they would be utterly astonished.

Inside, there were a hundred high-grade spirit jades!

These high-grade spirit jades were crystal clear, looking like the finest jade in the world, each pulsing with an exceptionally pure spiritual Qi.

The combined value of these one hundred high-grade spirit jades was an incredible one million low-grade spirit jades, equal to an astonishing one billion top-grade spirit stones.

It’s important to mention that, until this point, Jiang Chen had not possessed even one top-grade spirit stone.

With this sudden influx of a billion, he could truly be said to have hit the jackpot!

“Such generosity is truly fitting for a Holy Lord,” Jiang Chen said in awe as he quickly turned his focus to the other treasures.

Among these items, there were several vials of top-grade cultivation pills.

These pills were so powerful that any cultivator at the Heavenly Origin realm could easily progress to the Inquiring Journey realm with their help.

Moreover, hidden within the ring was a top-grade flying artifact of the Heavenly Origin rank, named the Unbroken Thousand Strings Holy Vessel.

“This flying artifact makes the Black Crystal Sky Piercing Shuttle obsolete,” Jiang Chen remarked to himself, a smirk forming on his lips as he pulled out the Unbroken Thousand Strings Holy Vessel for a close examination.

The boat, slender and sleek, glowed with a soft blue hue.

When activated, it turned into a dazzling streak of multicolored light.

This flying artifact could temporarily surpass the speed typical of the Heavenly Origin realm, making it exceptionally useful.

With a gleam of excitement in his eyes, Jiang Chen carefully stored the Unbroken Thousand Strings Holy Vessel and quickly pulled out the jade slip engraved with the Purple Heaven Dark Star Heavenly Scripture to study it closely.

The information it contained detailed how to reach the ultimate major realm of the Second Step of the Cultivation Path-the Dao Palace realm.

Without delay, Jiang Chen committed the full text of the Purple Heaven Dark Star Heavenly Scripture to memory and started to refine his cultivation practice.

…

Meanwhile, nestled within the boundaries of the Purple Heaven Holy Land, a young man sat on a majestic cliff, deeply engrossed in meditation, surrounded by a rich flow of Spiritual Qi.

He had sharp features and a handsome face, and he carried himself with a cool, reserved air.

This person was none other than Fang Yuan.

Fluctuations indicating a cultivation base at the Late-stage of the Spiritual Awakening realm radiated from his body.

Interestingly, these vibrations seemed to ebb and flow, gradually becoming less noticeable as Fang Yuan diligently continued his cultivation.

Paradoxically, the signals from his cultivation base appeared to grow more faint over time.

“Why is this happening!” Fang Yuan shouted, his face contorting in agony.

“I’ve been tirelessly cultivating; why does it seem like my cultivation base is vanishing into thin air!

What have I done to deserve this, cursed heavens!” Overcome with emotion, he looked up to the sky and let out a desperate roar, “Aagh!

I can’t accept this!” At that moment, his cultivation base took another hit, dropping suddenly to the Middle-stage of the Spiritual Awakening realm.

“No!” Fang Yuan let out a sharp cry of defiance.

Yet, he did not give up.

Instead, he intensified his efforts, exerting all his energy to practice the Purple Heaven Dark Star Heavenly Scripture, continuously absorbing the surrounding Spiritual Qi.

He also quickly took a pill and swallowed it whole.

Thanks to Fang Yuan’s relentless determination, his cultivation base stopped declining and stabilized at the Middle-stage of the Spiritual Awakening realm.

Despite his hard work, Fang Yuan couldn’t ignore the growing frustration within him.

“What the hell!

What kind of trickery is this…

At this rate, I might even fall back to the Soul Refining realm,” he muttered angrily, his fists clenched tight, the veins on his hands visibly throbbing.

Suddenly, a captivatingly melodious female voice echoed unexpectedly, “Ah~~ Finally, I’m fully awake again.

Oh, the feeling of being alive is absolutely thrilling!” “Nangong Wan, that detestable woman, must have been completely defeated,” the mysterious voice declared with clear joy.

“Hah~ this makes me even happier!” A look of terror appeared on Fang Yuan’s face as his eyes darted around, scanning his surroundings in panic.

“Who…

who’s there?!” he called out anxiously, but despite his efforts, he saw no one.

Out of nowhere, another angry yet melodious female voice rang out, “Shangguan Ning, you deserve total destruction!

How dare you ambush me during my tribulation.

I swear I will have my revenge!” This voice, unlike the charming one earlier, had a distinctly colder tone.

“Who are you?!” The ignored Fang Yuan persisted, his expression growing stern and his eyes constantly scanning his own body, as he had begun to sense that the source of the two voices might be coming from within himself.

“What!” Shangguan Ning’s voice echoed again, filled with disbelief.

“Nangong Wan, you nasty woman, you’re still alive!

How did you survive, and how did you end up in my Soul Embodying Ring!” “Hmph!

You are the nasty one,” Nangong Wan’s voice riposted coldly.

“Would I have had to die alongside you, if you hadn’t taken advantage of my weakest moment to attack me?” “How unfortunate!” she continued bitterly.

“After countless years of rigorous cultivation, I had just reached the Half-step Primal Chaos realm.

Shangguan Ning, you really deserve to die!” The fury and murderous intent in her words were unmistakable.

“Hmph!” Shangguan Ning replied with a scornful snort.

“Nangong Wan, I failed to kill you before, but now, I will!

I will avenge my clan!” Her words were seething with murderous intent, and her deep-seated loathing for Nangong Wan was palpable.

“How many times do I have to say this!?

Your clan’s downfall wasn’t my doing,” Nangong Wan shot back, her voice a blend of bitterness and helplessness.

“Heh,” Shangguan Ning answered with a cold sneer.

“The evidence against you is overwhelming, yet you still deny it.

You really have no shame.” “Today, one of us will die!” She declared, the intent to kill in her voice growing stronger with each passing moment.

“Then come!” Nangong Wan retorted with icy scorn, “Let’s see if you can even conjure a tiny fireball!” Then, silence fell.

Both voices went quiet.

Having only just regained consciousness after a fierce struggle, their souls were fragmented and weak.

How could they possibly find the strength to fight?
