I Am The Fated Villain
Chapter 86: Ripping Off Masks; What Else Can We Do When The Night Is Long?

The jet-black blade fell onto Yue Mingkong's body.

[Who!]

The blood splashes blurred Gu Changge's gaze, and Yue Mingkong's wedding dress looked even more red and dazzling to him.

He watched as a fountain of blood splashed towards him as it dyed him in his blood. At the same time, he witnessed the final moments of Yue Mingkong's shock, confusion, disbelief, and grief.

Right now, he was like an outsider watching his body commit murder, but no matter how he tried, he was unable to prevent it from succeeding.

Soon, the vision of the future disappeared.

Gu Changge stood still for a moment, and then sighed softly, "No wonder Yue Bingkong could not bear it anymore after she heard those words ..."

If someone said such words to him after doing something like that, he would also feel extremely humiliated.

On the eve of her wedding, she is murdered by the man she loves the most, and then finds herself in the past — Gu Changge is no stranger to the tropes, but it happens with her fiance, who is, and dealing with him would be rather difficult.

'This was of course what Yue Mingkong experienced before his rebirth; on the eve of his wedding, he was killed by my hand, but there was no way I would do anything crazy. Didn't I have to be brain-dead to do something to such a perfect wife who loved me more than herself?'

'From Yue Mingkong's experience, it was clear that my mind was completely dominated by the demonic nature of the Demon Heart. Then, it meant that I had neither the System nor my memory of my previous life in that timeline.'

It didn't take much thought for Gu Changge to figure this out.

A cold wind blew at the top of the mountain, and then he turned into divine brilliance and left the scene. Now that he understood the details of the situation, he could try a certain solution to resolve the issue.

'Speaking of which, this demonic nature is really trying to mess with me. How many times has that ruined my life now? But then again, it was something that could not be avoided, and I could also throw all my past mistakes into the Heart of Demons.'

'Just Yue Mingkong had experienced my cruelty once, so there was no way he would trust me so easily this time.'

'Again, I don't know what kind of treatment he received from me on a typical day, or how much he knows.'

Gu Changge returned to the Main Hall while thinking about the precautions on the way. Of course, he didn't find much.

After all, it was a fact that Yue Mingkong loved her very much before, but that did not happen again. Once a woman develops hatred towards a man, she almost goes crazy — her hatred will be embedded deep in her heart, and she will not be willing to accept excuses.

Worse yet? Yue Mingkong had retreated from the future, so he had a lot of knowledge about the opportunities and events that would occur in the future. He could utilize this knowledge to obtain every good opportunity, and it would not be easy to deal with it.

Not to mention he had to have a deep understanding of his character and nature.

Gu Changge estimated in his heart that his greatest advantage right now was the System, and the fact that he was an anomaly left behind by the world. Since he was the one in charge of the body now, the Demon Heart could no longer damage its nature and reason. Many of her worries would be resolved if Yue Mingkong still had feelings of love for her.

At that time, he would not only get a huge reward from the System, but he would also have a regressor wife. That's an advantage over a profit.

But there was also the possibility that Yue Mingkong was eager to kill him in this lifetime.

'Yue Mingkong did not know that I killed him completely different from me now, so he must have thought that all I did was to deceive him.'

'He is a vigilant!'

'On the other hand, the reason he kept pretending the same as before in front of me was probably my current behavior. Since he saw me acting differently than before, he must have thought that I had setbacks like him too, and now he was worried that I would find out that he was also a setback. It's just that he couldn't stand the words I said at the end, so he couldn't help but run away even if it meant exposing himself.'

Gu Changge immediately discovered the ins and outs of this matter.

The hardest part for him right now was that Yue Mingkong would not easily believe his words and actions. No matter how he explained — even if he said that the person who killed him was someone completely different, he said, or that he did it because his mind was dominated by the Demon Heart — he would not believe it.

Instead, the more he explained, the deeper his suspicions, and he would feel that he was still trying to trick her. Instead of helping, his actions would only result in harm to him.

That was why Gu Changge felt that there was no need to explain anything. The best way out now is to pretend that he doesn't know that he's a regressor. As for how he would deal with it? He already had a clear plan in mind, and only needed to act accordingly.

……

[In the Main Hall.]

Gu Lintian smiled as he discussed some very pleasant things with Emperor Yue. But just then, she saw Yue Mingkong entering the Hall with reddened eyes, and could not help but frown.

He wondered what made him cry?

With a hint of anger on his face, he asked her, “Mingkong, what happened? Is that boy, Changge, bullying you again? Tell your Uncle what happened, and Uncle will help you teach him a lesson on your behalf!”

He was well aware of the fact that Gu Changge had always treated Yue Mingkong with indifference and contempt, and it was normal for him to bully Yue Mingkong.

When it came to Yue Mingkong, their future daughter-in-law, she and Gu Changge's mother were very satisfied with him, and obviously could not see their damned son bully him.

Specially? Gu Changge had said that his actions in the past were the fault of the demonic nature of his Demon Heart, and that he had solved the problem, and that it would not cause him any more trouble.

So, why is he doing this now?

"Cowning, what's going on?"

Emperor Yue also asked when he realized that his daughter's expression was not very good.

For the past half a year or so, Yue Mingkong's appearance and actions had made her extremely relieved and satisfied, so she was more worried about him than before.

Yue Mingkong's expression immediately returned to normal, and he shook his head and said with a bright smile on his face, “Uncle, Father, you are too worried about anything. Changge wasn't bluffing me, it was just that I was thinking about some things in the past, and felt sad about it. Uncle, I'm sorry to show you such an embarrassing scene. ”

"Huh? Changge, that brat, is too much! Cassava, you don't have to protect her all the time, or she will bully you even more after you marry her in the future.”

Gu Lintian could only sigh when he heard his reply, and despised Gu Changge for his damned actions. Where could they find a daughter-in-law who was as virtuous and gentle as Yue Mingkong?

Specially? He used an iron fist when dealing with matters, and the Supreme Immortal Dynasty would also fall into his hands in the future. She will be the peerless Empress then!

There were many favored heaven princesses in the Upper Realm, but who among them could compare to Yue Mingkong?

But the boy, Gu Changge, instead of loving him, he made him cry, and bullied him the whole time. He deserves a punch!

Although Gu Lintian let Gu Changge do anything on ordinary days, right now, he could not help but feel angry towards him in his heart.

What will the boy do after they get married?

Yue Mingkong responded to his words with a smile, and then shook his head without saying anything.

His greatest secret had already been revealed before Gu Changge, so he was afraid that from now on, Gu Changge would not be able to tolerate his existence. He would never allow someone who knew so many of his secrets to survive in this world, even if the other party was his fiancee.

“So you are here, Bingkong; how are you feeling now?"

Right at that moment, Gu Changge's voice sounded from outside the gate of the Main Hall, with proper worry regarding his words.

Yue Mingkong's body stiffened the instant he heard her voice, and it was as if he was going to face off against his greatest enemy.

But soon, his nerves relaxed.

After all, he and Gu Changge's father were present here, so he wouldn't dare to kill him even if he wanted to.

“Replace, what happened? How dare you bully Mekong again? How can you make her cry ?! ”

Gu Lintian immediately began to scold Gu Changge. He was ready to hit him if his son did not give him a good explanation today.

Gu Changge acted as if he was surprised by his words, and then could not help but smile as he said, “Daddy, what are you talking about? How can I bully the Chinese? She's my future wife, and I can't even love her enough, so where am I going to find the time to bully her?”

With that said, he walked towards Yue Mingkong's side and held her hand as if it was natural.

Yue Mingkong had a slender and smooth finger as smooth as the most perfect Immortal jade.

Yue Mingkong, on the other hand, stood in place with a stiff body. He could not understand Gu Changge's actions. Was he trying to deceive their father by making it seem like he was harboring deep affection for him in his heart?

However, he soon realized that this was the first time Gu Changge had held his hand in their two lives, so he could not help but feel his head buzzing.

“Hmph! Better so!”

Gu Lintian handed the matter over with a cold snort after seeing the scene in front of him.

“Mingkong, are you feeling good now? Why are you crying? What happened to you so suddenly?”

Gu Changge looked at the somewhat stiff figure of Yue Mingkong, and acted as if he did not know what was causing his current condition, and asked in a gentle and affectionate tone. His face looked even more handsome and graceful as he spoke in a whisper.

"I'm fine, Changge, you don't have to worry."

Yue Mingkong was surprised by Gu Changge's words of concern, but he immediately showed a beautiful and natural smile on his face.

He wanted to see what kind of medicine Gu Changge wanted to sell this time. No matter what, he would not be able to fool her!

It was just that his actions and expression were completely new to him. In their past lives, he had always treated her nonchalantly, so he never had the chance to see her show such tenderness.

How good would it be if he really meant it and didn't pretend?

He could not help but laugh at his own thoughts, and immediately became indifferent.

……

Since the Emperor of the Supreme Immortal Dynasty had come to visit them, the Gu Family was clearly unable to do so without a banquet.

Gu Changge and Yue Mingkong sat side by side, and looked like a pair of Heavenly Deities made for each other. The people from the younger generation couldn't help but envy them.

At the same time, they secretly cursed Gu Changge as an unfit bastard for Yue Mingkong!

Of course, they still remembered Gu Changge's unrivalled strength, so they clearly did not have the guts to say such a thing before him. At most, they cursed him in their hearts. After all, even with all of them combined, they were trampled to the ground like useless cloth.

Yue Mingkong drank a lot of alcohol and looked drunk, so she decided to get up and go to the residence arranged for her by the Gu Family. But just then, Gu Changge held his hand and said with a smile, “Mingkong, where are you going? The moonlight looks beautiful tonight, so I think you should cherish it with me for a while. ”

Yue Mingkong's body stiffened once more.

“Haha, looks like the young man is already impatient.”.

Emperor Yue, Gu Lintian, and the others could not help but laugh with somewhat ambiguous expressions when they saw the scene before them, and then they all decided to leave the surroundings.

Although Gu Changge's actions seemed a little exaggerated, they could understand him. After all, he was a young man, and he also drank a few glasses.

The environment calmed down quickly.

Only Gu Changge and Yue Mingkong were left on the scene now.

"Crying, the night is long, so why don't you accompany me and have a few more glasses?"

Gu Changge said in a drunken tone.

A deep and indifferent expression appeared on Yue Mingkong's face, and her beautiful and gentle smile from before disappeared. She finally let out her grand empress aura, and said with a sneer, "Gu Changge, everyone is gone, so you don't have to pretend anymore ..."

“I don't understand why you changed so much? Could it be that you have always pretended to be kind and obedient? I've never realized you have such a way ... "

Gu Changge immediately cut him off with his own counterattack. At the same time, he pretended not to hear his words, and sat there with the drink still in his hand, and an unhealthy expression.

Yue Mingkong was immediately startled by his words, and did not understand what Gu Changge meant.

Has he changed so much? Did he talk about what he's done in the last six months?

It seemed like Gu Changge did not know about his setback...So, all he did today was to figure out the reason behind his sudden change?

Yue Mingkong could only sigh in relief as he realized this. It turned out that Gu Changge was not a regressor like him, contrary to his previous thoughts. Otherwise, he would have never revealed anything about his setback, and then asked her such a question at this moment.

Right at that moment, Yue Mingkong's expression changed, and he felt a powerful suppression force descend upon him from the Void.

Gu Changge had attacked him!

[Buzzing!]

He quickly reacted and retaliated with his own attack. He made a seal with his hand, and a bright light appeared around his figure. At the same time, a rune condensed on his palm, and took the form of a mighty crescent moon that shot towards the incoming attack!

He had spent the past six months searching for all kinds of Coincidence Gatherings, so his cultivation had reached the pinnacle of the Conferred God Realm. He could even break through to the Conferred King Realm at any time now, as he had already set one foot on his door.

But what surprised him was the fact that Gu Changge's cultivation was even stronger than his! He clearly remembered that in his previous life, Gu Changge was only at the early stages of the Conferred God Realm around this time.

But he did not panic. He knew Gu Changge's many ways, and was on guard, so he wouldn't be able to take him down.

“Peak of the Given God Realm? Bingkong, you seem to be hiding a lot from your husband, uh.”

The scene in front of him shocked Gu Changge for a moment, but then he raised his palm, and the terrifying golden runes turned into mountains and huge oceans that blocked the crescent moon thrown at him by Yue Mingkong!

At the same time, he stretched out his hand and closed his palm, using his Void Talent at the same time. The void in front of him was buzzing, and he could control it as he pleased.

"ah! Gu Changge, what are you doing? Release me!"

Yue Mingkong exclaimed in the next moment.

He felt something gripping his body as the Void around him froze. In the next moment, she found herself in Gu Changge's arms. The gentle expression he showed earlier was long gone, and what replaced it was the indifference he was familiar with, with a hint of cheerfulness visible in his eyes.

"Don't…"

Yue Mingkong's heart trembled. He never thought that Gu Changge could control the Void; this was something that was completely beyond his expectations.

Immediately, the golden figure in the depths of his Sea of Consciousness shone with a brilliant light. Dao chants rang out around him, and it was as if the figure wanted to kill Gu Changge.

However, Gu Changge seemed to have long prepared for this, and his own brilliance burst forth from his Sea of Consciousness. The eyes of the Innate God showed indifference as the demonic Qi wrapped around his body, and it directly blocked the effects of the Dao Yue Mingkong technique.

Yue Mingkong's expression turned serious. The method Gu Changge was currently using was far beyond his expectations, and he had never seen him use such a manner in their lives before.

This made him wonder if the Gu Changge in front of him was the same person as Gu Changge in his previous life? Or could something have changed?

"Cowning, are you still not going to confess the truth in front of your husband?"

Gu Changge asked with a curious expression, and no longer moved.

Yue Mingkong, on the other hand, was confused and did not understand why Gu Changge had suddenly stopped. In his impression, Gu Changge would not stop until he reached his goal.

Could it be that he really just wanted to know why he had changed so much over this past half year?

Yue Mingkong heaved a sigh of relief as he thought about this.

With that, he said frankly, “Because that's the case, I won't hide it from you anymore, Changge. The me you saw earlier was a facade made to please you, but I don't want to do it anymore. People like you are cold-hearted, and will never be moved by anyone, so why should I keep embarrassing myself?”

His words were the truth mixed with some lies, and he could easily hide the fact of his decline with this.

Gu Changge wanted to praise him for his ingenuity, but showed no change in his expression.

"Oh? How do you know I won't be moved by anyone?

He asked in return.

Yue Mingkong struggled in his arms, but realized that he could not escape, so he gave up on moving. He did not even want to open his mouth at that question from Gu Changge.

He had proven those words in his past life, so how could he not know that he would not be moved by anyone?

Still, Yue Mingking felt relieved after making sure that Gu Changge did not retreat with him.

This Gu Changge was the Gu Changge he knew. That gentle appearance and speech earlier was nothing more than a mask he wore to bring out the truth from his mouth.

Fortunately, he was quite skilled and could deceive her with his statement. With that, he could keep a secret about the regression to himself.

“So that's how you think about your husband all this time? The fact that you have been pretending for so many years really makes my heart ache a little. ”

Gu Changge said with a sad smile.

"Gu Changge, don't you know what kind of personality you have?"

Yue Mingkong said with a cold snort. After all, he had already ransacked all face with Gu Changge, so he did not care anymore about the matter.

Right now, they were in the Gu Family, so he could not believe Gu Changge dared to do anything too drastic to him.

Gu Changge did not respond to his words, and brought him to his palace. On the way, many people from the Family saw them like that, and inevitably showed an understanding smile.

"Gu Changge, what are you doing ?!"

Yue Mingkong became dazed, and felt his head buzzing in confusion.

"What else can I do when the night is so long?"

Gu Changge replied with a mysterious, shady smile.
