I Am the Fated Villain

Chapter 190: I Need a New Identity; Any Objections?

[Divine Crocodile Clan’s territory]

In the sky, dark clouds rolled in. At first glance, the place was merely a collection of mud and swamps, with black miasma rolling in the air.

Immediately after the emergence of a grey bubble, the void started cracking, filling the area with a palpitating aura, like a swamp of death.

In the middle of the jungle beyond the swamp, several powerful and tall Divine Crocodile clansmen were patrolling the surroundings, whispering.

The Divine Crocodile clansmen in golden armour, with dark-gold vertical pupils, swept through the nearby mountains and forests.

They were on the lookout for any and all creatures that may approach.

Not only the Divine Crocodile Clan but also the Ancient Serpent Clan were on high alert against any kind of movement.

They were especially cautious of any moves made by the Black Heavenly Eagle Clan. Some time ago, after obtaining the Ancient Technique from the Black Heavenly Eagle Clan, the Divine Crocodile and Ancient Serpent clans all started to cultivate it.

This Ancient Technique was extremely mysterious and powerful, for even those with only an average aptitude can progress their cultivation by leaps and bounds with it.

This discovery put many clansmen of the Divine Crocodile and Ancient Serpent in high spirits. They felt excited, for they believed their time to rise had come.

When they had been suppressed by the Black Heavenly Eagle clan, they could guess that it was probably because the Black Heavenly Eagle clan had obtained a mysterious treasure – now known as the Ancient Technique.

At one point, the quasi-supreme ancestors of the two major clans appeared, waking from their seclusion, to investigate this Ancient Technique.

When they saw the Ancient Technique, they were stunned, overwhelmed by the mysteries it contained. They were intoxicated, their Dao Hearts trembling, as they themselves were unable to comprehend all of its secrets.

Two clansmen, one from the Divine Crocodile, and the other from the Ancient Serpent interrogated a member of the Black Heavenly Eagle Clan who revealed this secret with a few drinks. Upon their discovery, they were greatly rewarded by their ancestors, their status skyrocketing within their individual clans. Many of their fellow clansmen were practically green with envy.

To have accidentally discovered a major secret of the Black Heavenly Eagle clan, such merit was high enough to earn anyone’s jealousy.

Currently, even the patriarchs of the two major clans were in the midst of cultivation, completely fascinated and unable to extricate themselves.

At this moment, near the mountain range, a crocodile with a very burly figure and silver armour, after patrolling the surroundings, couldn’t help but exclaim,

“The Ancient Techniquewe got from the Black Heavenly Eagle Clan is truly mystical! Last night, I broke through to the middle stage of the Heavenly God Realm. And to think I’ve been stuck on this bottleneck for so many centuries…”

When the other clan member next to him heard this, he nodded in agreement with the same indescribable feeling.

“I feel like I’m close to a breakthrough as well. At this rate, it should just be a matter of a few days!! Nobody could have imagined that our clan would get such an Ancient Technique. Now that it is in our possession, even dominating the whole of the Ancient Immortal Continent shouldn’t be impossible!”

He spoke with a smile, and a glimmer of excitement showed in his eyes.

Unlike before, when they were limited by their aptitude and had trouble breaking through to a higher realm, they now had the drive to cultivate.

For them, this Ancient Technique is definitely a Fate-defying divine Technique, giving them chance that could be said as rebirth.

It can even allow their clan to grow again and reach new heights of glory.

“If we weren't lucky enough to run into that stupid Black Heavenly Eagle, I suppose we'd still be in the dark…”

“The Black Heavenly Eagle clan definitely has malicious intent, their heart is condemnable, they wanted to get stronger in the shadows, I'm afraid it wouldn’t have been long before several clans would have fallen from their poisonous hands; the Black Heavenly Eagle clan's appetite has always been huge!”

“Fortunately, their plot was exposed beforehand!”

As the two said this, they couldn’t help but feel really lucky.

Only clan members who were in the realm of true gods, as well as some talented descendants, were eligible to cultivate this Ancient Technique.

The rest of them were not even qualified to know about this Ancient Technique.

This showed how much significance they placed on it.

They didn’t even think that the Black Heavenly Eagle clan would deliberately leak this information.

Why would someone flaunt out their wealth instead of hiding it?

They are, after all, greedy too.

This level of Ancient Technique, it's impossible for it to be created by the Black Heavenly Eagle clan, but they still don't know where the Black Heavenly Eagle clan got it from.

Furthermore, the Black Heavenly Eagle clan's strength was growing by the minute right in front of their eyes, and although they weren't saying anything, they were extremely envious in their hearts.

“Who are you? Why did you intrude into my clan!”

The two of them were greatly surprised, and there was a look of shock and disbelief in the dark golden vertical pupils.

Outside the mountain range, a young man who seemed to have travelled over a thousand miles in a single step was walking unhurriedly towards them.

The young man walks with his hands behind his back, his body draped in wisps of divine mist, as if clad in rainbow-coloured immortal clothes.

The space at his feet seemed to have layers of ripples, crossing mountains and rivers in a single step.

He appeared as if he was taking a stroll in his backyard, his steps elegant and tranquil.

Hiss!

“It’s him!”

“Gu Changge! Why did he come here?”

These two Divine Crocodile clansmen were terrified as they saw the approaching individual, and their voices began to tremble.

During this period of time, he has caused turmoil and unrest for the various clans of the Ancient Immortal continent.

How could they not recognize him?

It was not wrong to say that the man all the clans of the Ancient Immortal Continent currently hated the most was named Gu Changge.

With his own ability, he had plotted against every clan of the Ancient Immortal Continent, even leading the Tiangou clan to its demise.

The Divine Crocodile clan's younger generation were envious of this young man but they did not dare to bother with him in any way.

They were, of course, no exception. When they saw Gu Changge had arrived outside their clan, they felt a shiver run down their spine.

Even their legs were getting weak.

This young man with a calm demeanour could no longer be treated as a part of the young generation.

Despite the fact that no one was following him, it still brought them an unparalleled terror and deterrent.

The two of them were frozen in place, their smiles gone, so much so that they forgot to send a message to the clan informing them of this situation.

“How come you don't seem to welcome this Gu?”

Gu Changge said with a slight smile on his face.

Space blurred, shrinking into an inch, and with a step, he appeared in front of them in an instant.

He had been operating in secret for more than half a month, and the time to reap the benefits of it had finally come.

The first place he came to was naturally the Divine Crocodile clan.

With the experience of harvesting the Black Heavenly Eagle clan, Gu Changge was naturally not worried about any accidents. For him, this process was like planting a seed, which then breaks the soil, germinates, grows, bears fruit, and matures.

And all he had to do was pick up the ripened fruits.

To ensure that his true identity as Inheritor of Forbidden Demonic arts was not exposed.

Gu Changge considered that he should get a new identity, such as the Heir of the Ancient Deity of Reincarnation.

Ye Ling was dead, and most of his trump cards had fallen into Gu Changge’s hand.

This also included the Ancient Deity of Reincarnation’s abode, Lake of Reincarnation, Root of Reincarnation and several Great Sacred realm puppets left for him.

Therefore, there were no issues in pretending to be the Heir of the Ancient Deity of Reincation for him.

Of course, the Ancient Deity of Reincarnation would not recognize him as his heir.

After all, Gu Changge had killed the true heir he had painstakingly chosen and then snatched his opportunities, and now claiming to be his heir. It wouldn’t be surprising if he was seething in rage, wanting to kill him with his own hands.

The Ancient Deity of Reincarnation probably has never encountered such a shameless person. If he knew all of this, he would undoubtedly be very furious.

“Gu… Gu Changge, what are you doing here in my clan?”

When they realised Gu Changge was speaking to them, the two Divine Crocodile clansmen jolted up and asked, petrified.

At this point, their bodies were drenched in a cold sweat, their backs were soaked, and they were suppressing the impulse to collapse to the ground.

As a Heavenly God realm being, one has the power to rule over a city and govern the lives and deaths of millions of cultivators.

However, they were so terrified of a junior that if this information became public, it would undoubtedly cause huge waves.

However, even the Sacred grade Artifact couldn't kill Gu Changge, implying that he has the ability to kill both of them.

“Oh, you recognized this Gu? Then that makes this matter more simple.”

“However, this question is too naive, change it.”

“Of course, it’d be in your favour if you just keep your mouth shut and be quiet.”

Gu Changge, with a self-effacing face, said nonchalantly, before walking ahead by himself, “You two, led the way otherwise you’ll lose your life.”

He said lightly, but the two people were terrified and did not dare to speak.

Even their souls were shaking, nearly shattering.

It was simply too terrifying!

This young man was far more than what had been rumoured, and his palpitating, suffocating aura can only be felt when you face him.

They didn't dare to say anything, their faces pale and trembling as they led the way.

Their scalps almost exploded as they walked beside Gu Changge.

“Of course, take me to see your patriarch. The ancestors will be fine too. And inform your clansmen that their new master has arrived.”

“If they don’t want to die, then tell them to come and see me within a quarter of an hour.”

“Whoever does not arrive within a quarter-hour will have no need to continue living.”

Gu Changge spoke leisurely, with a small smile, while walking towards the depths of the Divine Crocodile clan.

As if talking about a trivial matter.

‘What?!’

These words stunned the two of them, widening their eyes and shivers running down their spines.

‘Gu Changge, what sort of confidence does he have to say such a thing?’

‘Is he delusory? Or does he truly have such methods?’

‘Master? What does he mean?’

It’s just that their lives were in the hands of Gu Changge, so they didn’t dare to say anything at all, but they still feel their heads buzzing.

‘Gu Changge is a ruthless individual with tremendous courage and meticulous actions.’

‘If he wasn’t certain, would he be alone, forcing his way through the Divine Crocodile clan?’

‘Does Gu Changge look like an idiot?’

‘Since he had dared to come, he would definitely have a foolproof plan.’

Thinking about this made the two's faces paler, and the enlightenment they had achieved from cultivating Ancient Technique was suddenly obscured by a dense fog…

And soon, within the clan land of the Divine Crocodile clan.

Looking at two clansmen leading a young man from outside the clan region.

Many clansmen instantly froze.

The entire clan of the Divine Crocodile violently shook, as if a meteorite had struck the deep sea.

These two clansmen, in particular, trembled as they repeated the words Gu Changge had conveyed.

Boom!

The whole Divine Crocodile clan, as well as the various Divine Mountains, erupted like an exploding volcano!

So much so that even the Clan’s Defense Array was triggered, and instantly enveloped the sky, with glorious light and shining runes.

“What? How dare someone forcibly breaks into our clan?”

“Who is so bold?”

“He is more than bold; he is courting death! What gave him the audacity to declare himself as the master of my clan?”

Shocked voices sounded out across the numerous mountain ranges, and several of the Divine Crocodile clansmen who were cultivating arrived in an instant, appearing shocked and furious.

They did not know the identity of the visitor, but they went there as soon as they heard the news.

Gu Changge's method of attracting hatred had undoubtedly reached the pinnacle.

The Divine Crocodile clan's hatred was sparked in a matter of words.

All the clan members' faces turned red, and their eyes were filled with fury and killing intent. Words like arrogance and haughtiness were not sufficient to describe Gu Changge's attitude.

The Divine Crocodile clan was a large clan that was among the best in the whole Ancient Immortal Continent, with tremendous power and profound heritage.

Even True Dragon Clan's emissaries, who want to visit their clan must inform them in advance.

Forcibly breaking in and casually giving threats?

It was no different from being provocative!

No, this was no longer a provocation, but directly trampling over their faces.

At this moment, they did not care what the identity of the intruder is.

Buzz!

Between the heavens and the earth, a divine light rushed to the sky, carrying a majestic and terrifying Sacred Realm aura, and divine sense surged, like the vast Galaxy Cluster, descending here.

A Sacred realm clan elder of the Divine Crocodile Clan arrived here, with a golden trail of light under his feet, carrying laws that were incomparably exquisite, intertwined in the sky.

“Who is so arrogant to forcibly trespass on my clan's territory?”

With an enraged expression on his face, the clan elder locked his gaze on Gu Changge, and his pupils suddenly contracted, somewhat shaken.

Gu Changge's face was obviously not a secret among the clans of the Ancient Immortal Continent.

‘Gu Changge! How could it be him?’

Many clan members of the Divine Crocodile Clan who recognized Gu Changge were baffled and astonished!

“Arrogant?”

Gu Changge smirked indifferently and lifted his hand as the void collapsed and a terrifyingly large void palm print emerged, smashing some of the Divine Crocodile Clan members who made a move towards him into a cloud of blood mist.

Both the body and the Primordial soul were instantly scattered into the air.

“I’m here to retrieve what belongs to me. How can this be called arrogance?”

He chuckled lightly, speaking as if he didn't put the entire Divine Crocodile clan in his eyes in the least.

“Gu Changge, you….” The Divine Crocodile Clan's Sacred Realm clan elder's face changed drastically, and a sense of dread emerged in his heart at this instant.

Boom!

A span of divine rainbows pierced through the sky, coming from the various mountain peaks!

Soon, many members of the Divine Crocodile Clan arrived from the various mountain peaks.

Many of them belonged to the younger generation including the heir of the Divine Crocodile Clan.

Initially, he accompanied Hei Yanyu with the intention of taking advantage of Gu Changge's injury and killing him.

It turned out that even though Gu Changge had been severely injured, he was still so powerful that he could kill the Tiangou clan's Young Supreme who was carrying a Sacred grade Atifact.

He was extremely shocked by this incident.

In his heart, Gu Changge was definitely countless times more terrifying than Long Teng, making him extremely envious and fearfull to provoke him.

‘Didn't Gu Changge already leave the Ancient Immortal Continent? How come he’s here right now?’

The Heir of the Divine Crocodile clan, Zheng Yang thoughts were in a mess.

He had a burly body, covered with a sturdy scale armour made of black gold. He looked very simple, but he was actually a very bold and meticulous person.

He stared at Gu Changge’s figure, and his heart was filled with tremors as a result of what Gu Changge had said earlier.

‘Gu Changge does not seem like a stupid person so it’s unlikely that he broke into the clan without any plans. He is definitely scheming something.’

Zheng Yang's heart was filled with dread.

In his opinion, Gu Changge could only break into their clan because he had an ancestor behind him, otherwise, he wouldn't dare to do something like this.

Alas, their clan only had Quasi-supreme Realm Ancestors, and their background is by no means comparable to the Tiangou clan.

“Gu Changge, for what purpose have you came here?”

At this time, the old Sacred Realm clan elder asked, with a slightly dark face, waving his hand a little to prevent the clan members from approaching him.

He didn't dare to act rashly since he didn't know what Gu Changge was up to.

H could still remember the misery of the Tiangou Clan that day vividly.

“What’s my purpose? Didn't I already tell you that?” Gu Changge stood with his hands folded, checking out the territory in front of him, ‘his’ territory.

Hearing this, he couldn’t help but smile faintly, “I’m naturally here to retrieve my belongings.”

As he had already done this before when he took over the Black Heavenly Eagle clan, he, naturally, could do it this time too.

However, Gu Changge needed something that could hide his identity as Forbidden Demonic Arts’ Inheritor in future.

And the identity of Heir of Ancient Deity of Reincarnation on top of his already terrifying background was a perfect option.

As soon as Gu Changge's words fell.

With a wave of his sleeves, the void trembled.

Buzz!

A black and white interwoven rune, as if made of six portals[1], containing the mysterious power of burying all beings, suddenly emerged from the void.

[1: Indirect indication to the 6 paths of Samsara.]

Black and white were intertwined, seems to be containing life and death, vitality and mortality, depicting Samsara!

Gu Changge was using the Samsara Talent. As soon as he did, the aura of Law of Time permeated the surroundings.

Many powerful Divine Crocodile clansmen nearby were horrified by this scene, and their faces changed drastically.

“The Samsara Talent….”

The Sacred Realm clan elder was flabbergasted, his face suddenly changed, and stared at Gu Changge with wide eyes.

With such an obvious display of Samsara Talent, another identity of Gu Changge was about to surface.

They were not like the Black Heavenly Eagle clan, which thoroughly investigated Ye Ling's affairs. They lack the Black Heavenly Eagle clan's meticulous thinking.

Many Divine Crocodile clansmen were astonished when they saw Gu Changge using the Samsara Talent.

“How is it possible for Gu Changge to be the Heir of Ancient Deity of Reincarnation?”

“Then…do we really have to live as slaves?”

After a moment of silence, everyone was shocked and stunned.

However, once they thought about it carefully, Gu Changge’s talent was amazing, his background was tyrannical, his methods were terrifying, and his strength was even more terrifying.

Him being the Heir of the Ancient Deity of Reincarnation, was not something they couldn’t accept.

On the other hand, they thought it was only reasonable.

‘If Gu Changge has such an identity, doesn't that mean our clan would have to surrender to him in accordance with the ancestral oath?’

Zheng Yang's heart shook; he had not anticipated this situation at all.

‘Gu Changge's identity would be unknown if he didn't reveal this.’

‘Our clan was planted with a slave seal by the Ancient Deity of Reincarnation, which means that our freedom is not in our own hands.’

Zheng Yang couldn't help but feel resentful, as he looked at Gu Changge with many complex emotions; unwillingness, grief, and despair.

‘We do now agree! Why should we all obey the ancestral oath and submit to him?’ Many clansmen yelled in their hearts after the response.

Especially since they obtained an Ancient Technique containing the mysteries, which benefitted them endlessly.

They were even expected to break the shackles and go to the Upper Realm.[2]

[2: Heavenly Dao Immortal Palace promised to protect them but they never let them come in the Upper Realm.]

As a result, they were unwilling to suddenly have a master.

“So what if you are the Heir of the Ancient Deity of Reincarnation? Don’t even think about it, Gu Changge, we will never submit to you!”

At the moment, the clansmen of the Divine Crocodile clan were extremely angry, their eyes turned red, and they roared, unwilling to accept this result.

They choose to fight and kill Gu Changge rather than surrender. Soon a terrifying Qi and Vitality emerged from their bodies, like a bright sun, with runes flooding in like seawater.

“Don’t…” The Sacred Realm clan elder’s face changed and was about to stop them.

But he was too late.

“How come you are so stupid? You only have one life, can’t you cherish it?” Gu Changge shook his head regretfully.

Buzz!

His words had just dropped, and there seemed to be an invisible thread in the void, which was suddenly pulled.

He didn't even move a bit, not even lifting his eyelids.

The robe looked brand new, unstained by a trace of dust.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

In the void, one after another, a mass of blood mist exploded, like being smashed down by hundreds of thousands of mountains, and they disappeared into the smoke with their body and soul.

“The slave seal…”

This scene turned the Sacred Realm clan elder and the rest of the clansmen’s faces pale and filled with despair.

At this moment, not only the group of people who had just made a move against him but also the other clansmen felt the feeling that Gu Changge only needed a thought to break the thread that represents their lives.

In other words, Gu Changge had complete control over their lives.

‘The slave seal's power is determined by the person who uses it and Gu Changge can directly control our lives and deaths. How terrifying is he?’

At this moment, Zheng Yang was desperate and his heart was trembling.

Gu Changge's methods were really exceptional in this regard, reaching a level that few people can achieve.

Naturally, they had no idea that all of this was the mystical effects of the Immortal Binding Arts.

Gu Changge also plans to continue to fool and control them with the “slave seal”. Of course, he was not going to explain it to them.

The smile on Gu Changge's face was calm despite all the crocodile clansmen becoming quiet and still.

“Does anyone else have objections?” He demanded.

There was dead silence all around, no one dared to answer, even the Sacred Realm clan elder was silent.

Many powerful men and older generation who came from a distance turned pale, as they did not expect to encounter this kind of situation.

Now they could only hope that the strength gap between Gu Changge and the ancestor was too large, making it difficult to control the life and death of their ancestor with the slave seal.

“Since there are no objections. I want everyone gathered in the Ancestral Hall in quarter of an hour.”

Soon, Gu Changge turned around and said casually.

“If anyone is absent, then there is no need for that person to continue living. Although this Gu is a magnanimous person, I don’t let people who are courting death live.” He added with a smile.

Gu Changge intends to use these chess pieces to cut through the whole Ancient Immortal Continent with this terrifying and irreversible knife.

When they heard this, the Divine Crocodile clansmen shuddered even more severely; a chill ran down their back.

Gu Changge had a cruel heart, and the Divine Crocodile Clan was currently experiencing it.
