I Am The Fated Villain
Chapter 140: Criticized; Rats Sniffing Opportunities!

Meanwhile, on the other side.

Chi Ling and Ye Ling were also having a hard time.

Not long after they entered the Ancient Eternal Continent, they met a powerful ferocious beast in the True God Realm that resembled a rhinoceros.

Although Chi Ling was a Young Supreme, she was only at the Early Stage of the Conferred King Realm, and only had the strength to contend with the masters of the False God Realm.

Dealing with a True God was something difficult for him.

Even if he used a Mystical Weapon, he would not be able to kill him without using any art or forbidden treasures.

But.he couldn't bear to do that.

He could not understand why his luck was so damned, so much so that he met a True God Realm beast as soon as he set foot on the Continent.

That rhinoceros-like beast was at the Middle Stage of the True God Realm, and possessed great power..

As soon as he opened his mouth, he would spurt out flames that gushed out like a sea of flames; some of his followers were killed under his attack, and the rest froze in fear.

“Chi Ling, let's join! You attract his attention and I will kill him.”

Just then, Ye Ling, who was hidden among her followers in disguise, spoke up.

After they entered the Ancient Eternal Continent, he gave Chi Ling some pointers to tell her that Gu Changge was not a good person, and she had to stay away from him, he said, but Chi Ling didn't seem to understand the clues, or perhaps, she deliberately ignored them and didn't care about her opinion.

This made Ye Ling helpless.

After all, Gu Changge's reputation was too clean.

Specially? His appearance could also easily fool women, so he decided to be quiet.

But now that he saw the scene before him, he could no longer sit still.

Ye Ling had always believed that she could fight those in the higher realms, and be at the top; after all, after all, he possessed innumerable Mystic Abilities and means that allowed him to triumph over countless enemies.

Right now, he believed that it was time for him to show Chi Ling and the others how great he was.

Chi Ling turned her head and did not say anything when she heard Ye Ling's words.

"Whatdidyou say? Surely, you don't have to do something so dangerous just to be the center of attention, do you?”

“Do you want to judge death? Even if you want to get the goddess's attention, you don't have to sacrifice your life, right?”

The expressions of the other Chi Ling followers changed, and they could not believe what they heard — some even cursed Ye Ling angrily.

To them, Ye Ling looked like a frog who wanted to attract Chi Ling's attention, and it worsened their mood because they, who were stronger than her, were more powerful than her, now it looked like a timid fool who did not dare to go forward.

At the same time, they were wondering if that bastard who had not even reached the Conferred King Realm wanted to prosecute death? How dare he say that he would slaughter the ferocious beasts of the True God Realm with a straight face?

“You seek death! We are already in a precarious situation, and you are still thinking of scoring some brownie points?”

The group of Chi Ling's followers, including the female disciples, inevitably showed strange expressions when hearing Ye Ling's statement, there were even some who mocked her.

Ye Ling was used to this form of sarcasm, so she did not say anything to respond to them. After all, he only appeared to be in the Conferred God Realm no matter how they looked at him.

In their opinion, it was impossible for him to win against a True God Realm beast.

What they don't know is that he has another identity!

"Open your dog's eyes and see how I do it!"

"Today, I'll show you how to do it!"

[TL/N: finally, it's here! Time for the protagonist to shine before the eyes of the dog.]

Ye Ling touched her nose out of helplessness and then sneered at the spectators.

He decided to all-out slap those so-called geniuses who looked down on him.

With that, Ye Ling prepared to attack as a black and white light covered her body. Mysterious fluctuations spread from his figure, and the spectators felt the sky almost fall over their heads.

'Ye Ling turned out to be very strong ...'

Chi Ling could not help but nod in recognition, and felt that they could kill the beast if Ye Ling lent her help.

[Humbling!]

Soon, the void shook.

Just then, however, a clear and beautiful palm imprint rushed towards the beast faster than Ye Ling!

The palm imprint seemed to be carved from immortal jade as it pierced through the void and instantly fell on a hill not far from it with a surge of mighty divine aura.

With a puff, the ferocious beast in the True God Realm found itself wounded and frightened from even being able to react to the attack hitting it.

His hard scales could not stop the palm at all as he tore it apart like a person ripping through paper.

[Hissing!]

The scene before them caused all the spectators to take a deep breath and look at the hill not too far away from them.

There they saw a group of powerful geniuses wearing golden armor and riding on powerful and ferocious wild beasts like knights.

The leader of the group was a beautiful woman wearing a hunting robe, with her silky blue hair fluttering in the wind. Her eyes were filled with deep indifference, and she resembled an peerless Empress as she stood there and watched them!

"Here we go!"

“Yue Bingkong!”

"The Crown Princess of the Supreme Immortal Dynasty!"

All the geniuses from the Vermillion Bird Family showed changes on their faces in horror..

Chi Ling could not deal with the beasts of the True God Realm, yet the future Empress injured him with a single palm strike.

He is too strong and scary!

'He's strong! He was at least above the Middle Stage of the Conferred King Realm, or there was no way he could injure the beast like that …'

Chi Ling was also surprised by the sudden appearance of Yue Mingkong.

He had just broken through to the Conferred King Realm, but even if he broke through to the Middle Stage of the Conferred King Realm now, he considered that he would not be able to match Yue Mingkong.

Although the two of them were Young Supremes, it was clear that Yue Mingkong was much stronger than him.

After all, even Young Supremes were divided into Upper, Intermediate, and Lower Classes.

He was only a High Middle-class Young Master, while Yue Mingkong was a High-class Young Supreme or even higher.

'Yue Mingkong ...'

Ye Ling was also stunned by his sudden appearance, and a shocked expression flashed in her eyes.

Bafflement filled her heart every time she met this world-famous beauty. She was as beautiful as a fairy, and seemed to have come out of the Immortal — painting in her eyes, Yue Bingkong was the most perfect masterpiece sculpted by Heaven.

His incomparable temperament which made it seem as if he looked down on everything in the world moved his heart.

'Damn it! How lucky the dog is! I hate that bastard, Gu Changge…'

Ye Ling never thought that Yue Mingkong would attack him and injure the beast just as he was about to face it.

Right now, his heart was filled with jealousy, jealousy, and aversion.

He felt that Gu Changge was the one who sent Yue Mingkong to kill him last time, so his hatred for him clearly surged.

There was no way he wouldn't blame Gu Changge's head right now.

At the same time, Ye Ling remembered that her disguise was perfect, not even Yue Bingkong would be able to recognize her.

After all, even Gu Changge failed to recognize him…

“Thank you for helping us, Crown Princess Bingkong!”

The young heavenly geniuses of the Vermillion Bird Family expressed their gratitude to Yue Bingkong, who was standing in the distance.

Chi Ling showed a complicated expression on her face and then cupped her hands together, and said, "Thank you for helping us, Crown Princess Mingkong!"

He knew that Gu Changge was probably the reason Yue Mingkong helped them out of nowhere. And most likely, it was not a friendly gesture from him.

He declared his sovereignty over him.

After all, Yue Mingkong clearly saw him chatting happily with Gu Changge on Supreme Peak that day, so it was very possible that he was now showing his strength due to the events of that day.

This made Chi Ling show a bitter smile as she did not know how to explain herself.

It had to be said that women understood women well, and she clearly guessed the reason behind Yue Mingkong's actions just now.

Yue Mingkong, who was standing on the mountain, only looked at Chi Ling with an indifferent look and did not say anything. After which, he turned around and brought his followers towards the depths of the Continent.

He would not bother taking action if he did not see Chi Ling.

Even though he knew that this arrogant girl was Gu Changge's pawn, he still needed to make sure...After all, no one knew what Gu Changge had in mind.

By the way, it was also for Chi Ling's good, as she helped him not to fall into Gu Changge's conspiracy.

Sweetheart! Yue Mingkong did not realize that Ye Ling was hiding among the Chi Ling followers.

In his last life, Ye Ling was not made to carry the name of the successor of the Taboo Inheritance, so he could enter the Ancient Eternal Continent without the need for disguise.

Inside, Ye Ling got countless opportunities.

Yue Mingkong knew nothing more about him than these facts.

Of course, the most important thing for him was to get the chance obtained by some of the Young Supremes in his previous life — After all, Yue Mingkong knew the exact location of the opportunity.

Yue Mingkong had full confidence in the fact that a trip to this Ancient Eternal Continent would allow him to reach the False God Realm without any problems.

And if he could obtain an Immortal Spirit, then it was not impossible for him to directly break through to the Sacred Realm as well.

After all, Immortal Spirits were the source of true Immortality, and even Supremes would salivate at it.

'According to my memories from my past life, the Ancient Eternal Continent will fall into chaos at any moment now because someone will destroy the tomb of the original inhabitants' ancestors ...'

'I never thought too much about the matter back then, but it must have been Gu Changge who sneaked in there somehow.'

'He held the [Immortal Devouring Demonic Art] and the tomb of the original inhabitants' ancestors stored the corpses of the mighty immortals from ancient times ..as long as their corpses had not decomposed to the point of losing all their origin, as long as their corpses had not decayed, Gu Changge would be able to swallow them and increase his strength.'

'The Ancient Eternal Continent was his natural breeding ground. I can't imagine how high his Buddhist Base will be by the time he leaves the Ancient Eternal Continent …'

'Otherwise? Gu Changge was also eyeing the soon-to-be-born Immortal Spirit.'

Yue Mingkong rubbed his glabella and felt helplessness and despair. Even though he knew all this, he could do nothing.

Gu Changge was too scary.

Be it his strength or ability, he did not seem to leave any gaps for others to attack him.

Even though he was a regressor and could guess Gu Changge's actions, he couldn't do anything to stop him, so what was the point of his regression?

Although he could sleep even more soundly now, staying by Gu Changge's side still meant that he was in great danger at all times.

After all, Gu Changge from his past life had left him traumatized beyond measure.

He did not believe that Gu Changge's cruel heart could change.

The reason he didn't kill her, and even treated her well, was because he had value in Gu Changge's eyes.

It was because of this that Yue Mingkong kept thinking of methods to increase his strength as soon as possible.

Xian'er's actions and fate had not changed much since he offended the Sea King's Palace as I remembered it. Although they would hunt him down and he would end up in a certain death situation, he would eventually escape as far as hair. Instead of dying at their hands, he would break through during the battle and reverse the situation.'

Yue Mingkong's expression did not show any change even though he thought of many things. After that, he took his followers to the nearest place from the opportunity he knew.

He recalled that in his past life, a Young Supreme found an Emperor level Formation angle in this direction.

Just then, Ye Ling sensed the fluctuations of the battle from not too far away, and turned towards it with a frown.

His expression changed as soon as he looked towards and saw a red-clothed figure fleeing towards him.

'That ... Yin May ...'

'He is in danger!'

Ye Ling moved without hesitation when she saw him in trouble; his figure turned into a brilliant ray of light and flew towards Yin Mei.

To him, Yin Mei was not only Bai Lie's fiancee, but she was also a witness who could prove that it wasn't him who killed Bai Lie.

"You're Li—"

Chi Ling frowned when she saw his actions, but then decided not to care anymore about Ye Ling. After all, even though he followed her as one of his followers, he did not really listen to her orders.

He didn't care, but that didn't mean his other followers weren't too satisfied with Ye Ling.

After all, the bastard escaped without telling anyone, and did not even listen to Chi Ling's instructions.

"I keep thinking that this guy is weird enough - did any of you know when he came with us?"

Back then, one could not help but ask in surprise.

"He won't be the successor to the Taboo Inheritance that sneaks with us?"

Others could not help but say it, but many of his friends showed cold expressions to him.

The successors of the Taboo Inheritance made a lot of commotion recently, and it caused many people to panic.

They felt suspicious of Ye Ling right now.

Right now, Chi Ling could not help but feel helpless and look for an excuse to explain Ye Ling's whereabouts.

Still, Ye Ling's behavior made her a little dissatisfied. He helped her out of kindness, yet she seemed to take his help for granted.

'Ye Ling indeed cannot be compared to Taoist Brother Changge.'

Chi Ling shook her head and did not say anything as Ye Ling brought her disappointment over the disappointment.

On the other hand, Ye Ling watched Yin Mei fight against the brilliant-looking Young Supreme. The mountains collapsed as they clashed, and strong winds swept across the sand and gravel.

Both of them used all sorts of treasures to fight against each other, and brilliant runes flooded the place as they attacked both sides.

Still, he could see that Yin Mei was a wronged person; she had a haggard appearance and blood dripped from the corner of her mouth.

His followers, on the other hand, were entangled by ferocious beasts, so they could not advance to help him.

'Yin Mei is in danger! I have to help her.'

Ye Ling did not hesitate in taking action. He had experienced many such situations where he would play the role of a hero who saved beauty, so he was used to the actions he had to take.

So, now that he advanced, he was clearly not afraid of failure.

He attacked with a red dagger at once.

[Shu!]

Terrifying tears appeared in the sky as the dagger turned into a deep red light and reached the target at an extremely high speed, like a rainbow of one color.

"Who is this?!"

Young Supreme resembled a young god shrouded in flames, and exuded a powerful aura.

As soon as the dagger targeted him, he sensed it and used his powerful Mystic Ability to fight against it.

At the same time, he glanced at Ye Ling, who was trying to kill him, and frowned.

For some reason, he always felt that the woman in front of him, Yin Mei, was not all-out and deliberately allowed him to beat her up.

So, now that he saw others join forces, he decided to give up against him. He no longer cared about the sword grass, so he turned into a brilliant ray of light and left the scene.

A glint flashed across Yin Mei's eyes, but her expression showed no change, and she said in a grateful and curious tone, "Thank you for your help, Daoist Brother!"

From what Gu Changge had told him, the white-faced handsome man in front of him was Ye Ling in disguise.

After all, only someone who liked a woman like her would rush into being a 'hero who saved beauty' whether it was risky or not.

Yin Mei could not help but mock him in her heart.

Ye Ling hesitated in responding to Yin Mei after listening to her words.

After all, if he chose to reveal his identity, and Yin Mei turned out to have malicious intentions towards him, then he would end up in danger.

However, after thinking for a moment, and recalling Yin Mei's past temperament and actions, she chose to believe him and said, "Yin Mei, I'm Ye Ling!"

"What?!"

Yin Mei's eyes widened in shock and disbelief as she listened to his words, and she asked hurriedly, "Are you trying to prosecute death? How dare you come here and still have the guts to reveal your identity?"

"Why are you so stupid? What if I want to hurt you?"

Right now, he looked more anxious and worried for Ye Ling than his own mother.

If Gu Changge saw him now, he would definitely praise him for his ingenuity.

Her acting skills definitely made her worthy of being the Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox Family Holy Girl.

Be it his expression or words, everything was on target and one could not find any flaws in his acting.

Ye Ling was completely confused by his answer.

He felt his heart move when he saw Yin Mei's concern and concern for him.

There is still someone in the world who believes in him!

Sure enough, he did not misunderstand Yin Mei.

Ye Ling lowered her voice and said to Yin Mei, "Don't worry, my disguise is perfect and no one can see me."

Yin Mei became calm after listening to his words, but there was still some worry visible on her face.

"You are too brave! How did you get in here? Don't you know that many cultivators are looking for you?"

"You know I was framed by someone! I will soon find a way to prove that I am innocent; the reason I came to the Ancient Eternal Continent is because he has what I want."

Answer Ye Ling.

Yin Mei nodded in response to his words.

"Yin Mei, do you think I didn't kill Big Brother Bai Li?"

Ye Ling could not help but ask out of curiosity.

Yin Mei shook her head and then looked into Ye Ling's eyes and said, "I never doubted you! Even though Bai Lie was angry after you left that night, he wasn't angry until he wanted to kill you."

"He won't ignore your brotherhood nurtured over the years? He believes in your character."

"Also, I can't believe you would do such a thing!"

His tone did not show the slightest hesitation.

Ye Ling never thought that Yin Mei would trust him so much, and it moved her heart even more and said, "The person who set me up is ..."

After all, Yin Mei had also offended Gu Changge, so Ye Ling did not hesitate to tell her thoughts, in order to raise Yin Mei's vigilance towards Gu Changge while inside the Heavenly Immortal Dao Palace.

"What?! This is Senior Brother Gu?"

Yin Mei showed tremendous shock at Ye Ling's revelation, and fear and disbelief covered her face.

However, in his heart, he said, Teacher is not wrong! Ye Ling's brain was not entirely in the trash, and she was already suspicious of Master. Sweetheart! He's smart but not smart enough.'

He silently shook his head.

Previously, Ye Ling had managed to introduce herself as Yin Mei's 'old friend' in front of her followers.

Chi Ling and the others were shocked when they found out the news, and did not know what to say.

Still, Chi Ling and Yin Mei decided to work together for a while for the sake of Ye Ling.

After which, their group headed to the depths of the Continent.

Ye Ling continued to smile all the way.

On the way, he slowly revealed his abilities and convinced everyone around him that he was not weak. At the same time, everyone found out about his heaven-defying luck that allowed him to obtain countless rare herbs and treasures.

He even found some Divine Armaments buried underground.

'Sister Turtle, can we really find the Dao Enlightenment Platform from the Ancient Heavenly Reincarnation Emperor if I follow your lead?'

Ye Ling asked the turtle in her pendant. Right now, he was extremely confident as everyone around him subconsciously treated him as their leader.

'Yes! The Heavenly Emperor specifically left the Platform for you, and you will definitely find many good things once you reach the Enlightenment Platform.'

The old turtle said to Ye Ling.

Ye Ling's excitement surged as she listened to the turtle's reply.

What she did not know was that Yin Mei kept her eyes on him!

At the same time, he carefully left a trail for Gu Changge, worried Gu Changge might not be able to find them otherwise.

After all, the Ancient Eternal Continent was huge.

So he made these preparations just in case.

However, no one paid attention to his actions.

Yin Mei could not help but ridicule the excited Ye Ling in her heart, and thought, Not only did she help Master take all the blame, but she also helped Master look for opportunities everywhere; oh, how poor you are, Ye Ling!'
