I Am The Fated Villain
Chapter 65: Heart of Truth; Gu Changge Feeling Offended!

The new Attribute Panel brought great satisfaction to Gu Changge's heart. The leeks he had nurtured for so long gave him the fat harvest he wanted.

He now had nearly ten thousand Fate Points, and nearly two thousand Fortune Value Points. He also got another catch.

He could now do even more, and execute much of his plan. Of course, the most important thing right now was for him to fulfill his goal behind descending into the Lower Realm.

Ye Chen had paved the way for him, and the [Eight Desolate Demon Halberd] was his to take now!

As for the legacy of the Ancient Heavenly Secret Realm? It was not very important to Gu Changge. Only a small character like Ye Chen would care about the legacy of Quasi-Supreme. As the Young Master of a prominent family in the Upper Realm, he did not lack the legacy of a mighty being. Specially? He also has a System to boost it!

'According to the description of the Heavenly Gift, the Void Essence should be related to Ye Chen [1]. Did that Ye Chen have some latent Physique or other Mystical Talent?'

'Well, it doesn't matter now even if he does!'

[1: Heavenly Gift Chest gives random thing + something related to the Favored Son of Heaven who was killed by Gu Changge.]

Gu Changge thought about it and then ignored the matter. After which, he felt his current control over Void. This new ability can not only help him fight against others, but can also help him escape and hide when he may be in trouble.

After all, the power to control the Void was the power to control Space itself. Not many powers learned it even in the Upper Realms. All of the Mystical Abilities associated with Space are extremely mysterious and mighty.

Gu Changge could use this ability as one of his small trump cards.

'I have to save the World Seed fragment for now, and fix it later when I have time. I must have more ways to successfully repair and nurture the world within my body at that moment …'

Gu Changge decided in his mind, and then turned his gaze to the palace hall. A light of satisfaction appeared in his eyes when his gaze landed on the [Eight Desolate Demon Halberd]. After all, that was the reason behind her descent into the Lower Realm.

The ferocious Demon Qi coming out of Halberd moved his Demon Heart, and he felt a deep connection between his Origin and Halberd. Gu Changge could not resist his desire to possess this supreme evil weapon.

Once he obtained his weapon, he would have another trump card to rely on when he returned to the Upper Realm; he did not need to spend so much effort on schemes and underhanded means.

"Gu Changge, what are you doing to me?"

Ye Liuli's roar sounded from the side, and interrupted Gu Changge's thoughts on how he could obtain the Spear as soon as possible. He struggled with an extremely complicated expression on his face. Confusion, anger, and cold covered his face, but if there was one thing missing, then it was hatred.

He knew that he should have hated her, but for some reason, whenever he thought of hating Gu Changge, a deep fear would grip his heart as if he were facing a Heavenly Tribulation!

This feeling made him go through tremendous pain and struggle.

This must be because of Gu Changge's magic! He regretted his actions, and wondered why he was stupid enough to think he could outwit Gu Changge and play him? In the end, Gu Changge played it, and he only danced in the palm of his hand.

"What did you call me?"

Gu Changge glanced at him with a playful grin.

To be honest, he was not too interested in Ye Liuli. The only reason he was bothering her was his identity. As the little princess of the Ancient Eternal Ye Family, she was the most favored by their Patriarch. As long as he used it well, he could obtain many benefits from the Ancient Immortal Ye Family with his identity as the Young Master of the Ancient Immortal Gu Family.

Why else would he bother looking after Ye Liuli?

Ye Liuli's head buzzed again hearing Gu Changge's indifferent words. The previous confusion overpowered him again, and he felt as if he was standing before an ancient god as Gu Changge's indifferent eyes continued to stare at him.

His soul trembled, and he could not help but surrender himself before him.

"Master…"

Ye Liuli felt a great humiliation when the word came out of her mouth, and tears welled up in her eyes. He was the enemy that had killed Big Brother Ye Chen, yet here he was, calling him 'Master.'

He could not help this embarrassment, but he had no way of stopping himself.

Ye Liuli wanted the earth to explode and swallow him whole. He had only suffered humiliation and setbacks ever since he met Gu Changge! Nothing good came out of meeting him.

'Young Master's thoughts and means were completely outside of Ye Chen's mind. Ye Chen would never return, or take revenge, against Young Master Gu in this lifetime!'

Yan Ji could not help but think about this in his heart after seeing everything that had happened. Then, his figure turned into a wisp of light and he returned inside the [God-level Nourishing Jade Spirit].

[God Level Spirit Nourishing Magic] was much more valuable and beneficial to him, compared to ordinary rings. Not only did it keep his remaining spirit warm, but it also nurtured it and strengthened his Primordial Spirit. Even for the God King, it was a treasure that they would keep close to their person at all times.

It was just that Gu Changge had placed several layers of shackles and restrictions on the [Roh Nourishing Jade]. Yan Ji could not spy on the outside world through Jade, unless he allowed it.

After all, he hated the fact that all these 'Grandfathers' had the ability to watch everything that was happening in the outside world. They will watch the Protagonist at all times, and the Protagonist will have no privacy or secrets.

Gu Changge made sure to make the restrictions as tight as possible, and considered every aspect. Yan Ji knew this, but he was not bothered by the restriction. After all, he was not someone who liked spying on the secrets of others.

Specially? A person with Gu Changge's identity must have many secrets. It made sense for Gu Changge to do this much, and he also did not want Gu Changge to be suspicious of him.

Specially? [The God-level Nourishing Jade Spirit] is not a prison. As long as he wanted to, he could leave it at any time and appear in the outside world.

This further moved Yan Ji's heart as Gu Changge had put a lot of thought and attention into giving him a comfortable and relaxed environment with complete freedom. This was the treatment he would never receive from Ye Chen!

He immediately sat inside the Jade and began to strengthen his spirit.

In the ring, he could only float around in confusion, doing nothing. But now, he could use his Jade power to nurture and cultivate the rest of his spirit. The two treatments were as different as Heaven and Earth, and only when one experienced both for themselves would they understand their differences.

'To be able to easily pierce through Quasi-Supreme's body, and bring chaos to the entire world, this [Eight Desolate Demon Halberd] must be the highest level Artifact, or higher ..."

'Looks like I need to use some tricks to have it…'

'I wonder if I can improve it just by using Fate Points .. After all, Fate Points can increase the cultivation and comprehension base, so this should also not be impossible ...'

Gu Changge had already thought of a plan to conquer Halberd as he walked further into the palace.

A terrifying pressure that could shake one's soul descended upon it, giving it a feeling like an ancient god looked down on him, but Gu Changge completely ignored him.

[The Innate God Temple] in his Sea of Consciousness echoed, and the gaze of the shadowy figure within pierced through the void to stare at whatever stood before him!

[Humbling!]

An even stronger pressure descended upon it, and Gu Changge wondered if it was the aura left behind by the creator of the Ancient Heavenly Secret Realm before his death, or the power of the [Eight Desolate Demon Spear]? Either way, he felt as if an aura could obliterate Heaven!

The heart of Demon Gu Changge surged at this moment, and a pitch-black demon shadow appeared behind him as his demonic nature disengaged.

Ghost bells and songs rang out from all corners of the world, as if demons everywhere were welcoming their Lord! The origin of his aura resonated with the surrounding Demon Qi, and the pressure from the [Eight Desolate Demon Halberd] that was suppressing him disappeared mostly.

This relaxed Gu Changge, and he appeared at the core of the palace in a few steps.

[Humbling!]

Right at this moment, however, a sudden change occurred. The body that was pierced by the [Eight Desolate Demon Halberd], and nailed to the throne of the palace, suddenly trembled and released frightening fluctuations in the surroundings.

A ray of bright light shone on the entire body, and a silhouette appeared on it, as if the corpse was about to rise again.

"It turns out his legacy was left like this. It's good that I kill Ye Chen first, or I'll get in trouble ..."

Gu Changge frowned and stopped in his tracks.

Anyone can say that there is something wrong with this place. Normally, there were only two possible resurrections of a thousand-year-old corpse: 'The first one was that the corpse was not a corpse, or there were spirits left to inherit.'

No matter which one was the case for this Quasi-Supreme, it meant danger to Gu Changge.

He did not come here to receive the inheritance, instead, he was here to refine and take away the [Eight Desolate Demon Halberd]. In other words, he was here to destroy the seal created by the owner of the Secret Realm.

Since the owner of the Secret Realm still had a spirit left, how could he let her do as she wished?

It didn't take long for Gu Changge to know all this.

According to the development of the normal plot, the Preferred Heavenly Son would obviously reach this point easily, and gain the approval of the master of the Ancient Heavenly Secret Realm. He would then receive the inheritance, become the champion of justice, and tighten the seal of the [Eight Desolate Demon Halberd].

But now, not only did he reap the fruits of the hard work of the Loved Son, but he also killed the Beloved Heavenly Son.

Gu Changge had no interest in the Coincidence Meeting left for the Heavenly Son to be Loved, especially when there was danger associated with it.

"Come to me and learn my Dao ..."

Just then, the silhouette above the corpse became real, and carried a majestic pressure with it. Wearing a purple-gold crown and a golden divine robe, he looked like an ancient emperor.

His gaze fell on Gu Changge and he ordered.

As a Quasi-Supreme, he was naturally the absolute ruler of the Secret Realm with complete control over everything. All sorts of thoughts flashed through Gu Changge's mind as he looked at the spirit left in front of him.

If things became dangerous, he could still escape from the Secret Realm, but then he would lose the [Eight Desolate Demon Halberd].

'It doesn't matter because I have a [Domain Traversing Talisman]. If things get worse, then I can use it and leave…'

Gu Changge's expression turned calm, and he quickly thought of a solution in his heart. At the same time, the strength of his Demonic Heart subsided and disappeared.

"Yes, senior!"

With a calm expression, he walked towards the corpse. The Master of the Secret Realm was supposed to be a good man when alive, so Gu Changge was not worried about him using any tricks, or attacking him out of nowhere.

"You have the heart of the devil and the nature of the devil ..."

"How can I pass down my Dao of Light to you?"

Just as Gu Changge was standing still, a ray flashed past the remaining spirit eyes, and he looked at Gu Changge deeply. After which, his terrifying and furious voice almost destroyed the palace, and Gu Changge felt his blood rumble.

Fortunately, he was ready and protecting his vital organs, or the sudden tremor would shock him to the point of fainting. After all, the remaining spirit belonged to Quasi-Supreme, so it would not be easy for him to deal with it immediately.

At the same time, this verified Gu Changge's speculation.

This remnant spirit had its own consciousness and was not just a dead recording left behind by the master of the Secret Realm. Fortunately, he had already restrained his Demon Heart, or the remaining spirit might have already attacked him, instead of talking to him like this.

At that time, it would definitely try to slap him to death. After all, the [Eight Desolate Demon Halberd], and the person who killed this Quasi-Supreme, were related to him and the origin of his inheritance.

'That bastard Ye Chen's heart was not so clean either. Not only did he want the body of his Master, but he was also a jealous and hypocritical person. He even feared death to the point of pretending to be unyielding and mighty…'

'So he was worthy just because he was the Preferred Heavenly Son? Isn't this too much rigged?'

Gu Changge was speechless, and felt an overwhelming dissatisfaction towards the appraisal abilities of Secret Realm masters.

Sure enough, he only had hatred for her. Sweetheart! He was a criminal, and his mere existence was enough to offend these people.

"Senior, although this junior has a demonic nature, my heart is bright, and full of justice for the world. I intend to help the commoners, and bring light to the lives of those who are immersed in darkness..."

"If Senior's inheritance is given to this junior, then this junior guarantees to punish evil, uphold justice, and never deviate from the right path!"

But, since it was a remnant spirit, it shouldn't be too difficult for him to deal with it. After he dealt with this remaining spirit, he would naturally be able to subdue the [Eight Desolate Demon Halberd].

Gu Changge's face showed a righteous expression, and he couldn't help but utter eloquent words full of justice.
