Eternal Villain: I can enslave Reality!

Chapter 212 212: Stepping Stone

The Enforcement Elder was scared to be near Xu Shan, but he also didn't want to offend the young man anymore than he already did.

He followed after Xu Shan to personally show him around. With the Enforcement Elder accompanying him, no place was off limits for him. It wasn't as if they were off limits for someone like him before but this time, things became more efficient.

"Where's your Clan Head?" Xu Shan asked the Enforcement Elder as he took his first step inside the Mansion.

"Ah, the Patriarch..." The Enforcement Elder was stunned for words. His sudden hesitation made Xu Shan feel that something was off.

"He isn't in the Mansion. He left the city to take care of some matters at a Branch Family in another city." After some time, the Enforcement Elder finally came up with an excuse.

Xu Shan smiled in response.

"You're not particularly good at lying, are you?" he asked, without turning around.

"I..." The Enforcement Elder was left speechless.

Xu Shan didn't bother waiting for an explanation. His Divine Sense spread out, covering the entire mansion. Now that the bracelet was gone, it was hard to locate the exact place where the girl was kept, but it was only a matter of time.

In the depths of the Clan Mansion, the old Ancestor of the Luo Clan sensed someone probing him. He grew furious that someone would try to probe him. To reach the brazen person lesson, he used a Divine Skill to destroy Xu Shan's consciousness.

It was only after he attacked that he realized what mistake he had committed. The Divine Consciousness was like a calm sea and his attack couldn't cause a single ripple.

He coughed out blood, getting hurt instead. In shock and disbelief, the old Ancestor stared at the blank space. His expressions grew dark as he wiped the blood off his lips. He wasn't sure who had infiltrated their mansion, but he didn't dare probe back.

"Ancestor?!" A concerned call came, the Clan Head noticing the Ancestor Coughing out blood.

"There's an intruder..." The Ancestor spoke, as he stood up. His body was brimming with strength, although he looked frail.

"Go out and delay him!" he instructed the Clan Head. "Even if you have to sacrifice the entire clan, don't let him interfere! Once I finish this ritual, I'll be able to lead the Clan to prosperity!"

As he spoke, his gaze drifted towards the bed situated at a distance. Resting upon it was an unconscious girl.

The Clan Head didn't dare delay. This was the moment they had been preparing for a long time. At this moment, they couldn't fail! Although he didn't know who had intruded, but even if it was the Queen, he was willing to do anything to delay her.

"Once Ancestor Ascends, why would I need to worry about that bitch!" The Clan Head mumbled as he left the hall, passing through the Ancient Formation that protected this hall.

However, it was only after he left the hall that he thought of something. The Ancestral Formation was strong enough to prevent any Divine Conscious. So how did the enemy see through?

"Unless that person has... ascended!" One face flashed before his eyes. He could still delay the Divine Empress through various tactics, but if it was the person he was thinking about, then he was worried about it a lot.

He realized that if this person had truly ascended, it meant they had reached a level of power that surpassed even the Ancestral Formation's defenses. This sudden revelation sent a chill down his spine. He turned around to get back inside the formation to alert the Luo Clan Ancestor.

As soon as he spun around, his body went rigid. All color drained from his face. The world seemed to flip on its axis... quite literally. His head slumped forward, coming to rest beside his still-standing body.

The person who killed him, turned around. His finger touched the Ancient Formation, devouring it entirely. In the blink of an eye, the formation that could even stop Heavenly Celestials was gone.

Inside the hall, the old man stepped closer to the bed. His clothes dropped to the ground, revealing his naked body covered with wrinkles.

The room grew silent as the man climbed on the bed. He brought his fingers close to the girl, gently rubbing her cheeks.

"After a long time, finally I'm going to ascend! I wanted to enjoy every moment of it, but it looks like I'll have to hurry..."

His fingers slid down, slowly unbuttoning the girl's clothes.

The girl started regaining her consciousness as she mumbled something. Feeling a touch, she opened her eyes, which were filled with fear.

She tried to push the old man away, only to fail. Even though the old man looked frail and weak, he was still a Half Step Immortal that had stayed hidden from the Divine Queen. No one knew that the old man was still alive for hundreds of years.

"Don't resist. This is what your Special Physique was made for! To be a stepping stone for me to reach my goals faster!"

The old man revealed a disgusting smile as he grabbed the wrists of the girl, moving them aside.

The girl fiercely resisted, but a strange force held her in place.

The old man brought his lips closer to the girl's lips, but before he could kiss her, he heard the door open.

"You little brat, can't you wait a little?" he asked, without even looking back. He thought it was the Clan Head.

He didn't receive a response. He could only hear footsteps getting closer to him, which made him feel that something was wrong. A sense of danger coursed through every fiber of the body.

The old man felt an intense desire to glance behind him, yet an overwhelming sense of dread gripped him, making it seem as if his very life depended on not doing so.

In his vast experience, he had learned to trust his instincts, as they had rarely let him down. And in this moment, those very instincts were screaming at him with an unparalleled urgency.
