I Truly Am The Villian

The two people who removed their masks were a man and a woman.

The man's forehead was marked with the insignia of the Sun Palace.

And naturally, the woman's forehead bore the moon.

It's worth mentioning that the sun and moon insignias radiated a sense of divinity.

The aura above them couldn't be imitated, and was practically impossible to form later on.

This was the mark of the Sun Moon Sect.

It's said that everyone in the Sun Moon Sect, from birth, has a sun or moon insignia on their forehead.

Moreover, it's not something that's artificially imprinted.

It is bestowed by the Sun and Moon Fire God.

These insignias become increasingly distinct with age.

Apart from this, the man and woman were indistinguishable from other members of the Fire Tribe.

However, upon seeing them, Murong Qing was greatly shocked.

The Sun Moon Sect had vanished in the Blazing Flame Realm for nearly ten thousand years and was even once thought to have been extinct.

Since that incident years ago, no one had seen the Sun Moon Sect.

But to Murong Qing's surprise, the Sun Moon Sect had been active all along.

And had been secretly concealed by the Hell Tiger Clan, brought into the Origin Land.

"This is trouble," Murong Qing muttered to himself.

"Young lad, hand over the water source, and we might spare your life," the man on the left said with a sinister smile.

"What do you intend to do?" Murong Qing replied.

"The Blazing Flame Realm does not welcome you.

Do you really wish to repeat the mistake of the past?"

"The Blazing Flame Realm is our home, our origin.

Whether we're welcome or not isn't for a mere youngster like you to decide," the woman with the moon insignia sneered.

"Since you won't cooperate, we won't bother wasting words."

She waved her hand.

Immediately, powerful flames started to burn from all around her.

These flames took the shape of the moon.

Powerful flames twisted the void and incinerated everything around them.

"Kill," they shouted in unison.

They both charged at Murong Qing.

One on the left and one on the right, with two powerful bursts of flame echoing in the void.

It was as if two intensely hot fireballs were attacking from both sides.

Xu Zimei watched this unfold.

He said to the three beside him, "Get ready, we're leaving now."

"Leaving?" Xiao Anshan asked first.

"Are we returning to the Blazing Flame Realm?"

"What else?" Xu Zimei retorted.

"Aren't you going to help them?" Shangguan Xian asked.

"Murong Qing seems to have a good relationship with you."

"There's no need; they've long made their arrangements," Xu Zimei shook his head.

"The real boss hasn't shown up yet, no need to hurry.

Right now, it's just minor skirmishes."

Saying this, Xu Zimei smiled again, "We should have a more interesting target now."

"You mean...," Xiao Anshan slowly shifted his gaze.

Shangguan Xian's gaze also turned to the side.

She said word by word, "Shangguan Wan'er."

"It seems she just snatched the fire source from the Earth Realm," Xu Zimei smiled.

"Make her cough it up."

Xu Zimei stepped into the void, with the others following closely.

When Shangguan Wan'er saw them approaching, her gaze sharpened.

"What? Do you want to fight?"

"Fight, why should I fear you," Shangguan Xian coldly snorted.

"How do you want to fight?" Xu Zimei laughed.

"Do you want to challenge all of us alone, or do we all gang up on you?"

"Is the Chaos Fire Realm always so shameless?" Shangguan Wan'er said blandly.

"Or are you afraid of me, unable to defeat me?"

"Say whatever you want, we're shameless, so what," Xu Zimei laughed.

He glanced at Sect Master Bai.

Said, "Your strength is slightly weaker, just follow along and protect yourself."

"Don't worry, I was just thinking of trying out the Four Symbols Fire Ancestor's technique," Sect Master Bai nodded.

"Go," Xu Zimei waved his hand, and the four of them instantly charged at Shangguan Wan'er.

"Brother Hu, help me," Shangguan Wan'er looked at Hu Ba and shouted.

Because during the recent battle, the two from the Sun Moon Sect had blocked a certain deadly attack for Hu Ba.

So Hu Ba also escaped a fatal blow, now recovering his strength.

"Miss Shangguan, our cooperation ends here.

Your affairs are not the concern of our Hell Tiger Tribe," Hu Ba sneered.

During the attack on Murong Qing, Shangguan Wan'er had been holding back.

Almost got him killed by lightning strikes.

So, everyone had their secret agendas, why would he help Shangguan Wan'er?

......

The surrounding Jiuyou Prison Fire converged here.

Facing the siege of Xu Zimei and the others.

Actually, Shangguan Wan'er could handle the others with ease, but Xu Zimei alone.

She remained vigilant all along.

Because they had fought once, Shangguan Wan'er knew he was an opponent no weaker than herself.

Watching as Shangguan Wan'er used one hand to fend off Xiao Anshan and the other against Shangguan Xian.

Xu Zimei's figure flashed swiftly through the void.

He struck with a direct palm.

In the palm of his hand, the Swastika imprint spun continuously, stirring up the swirling clouds and the surrounding void.

As his palm descended, Shangguan Wan'er hurriedly countered with one of her own.

With a "boom" sound.

The palm sent her figure flying out.

Half of her arm was ripped apart by the immense force.

Shangguan Wan'er stabilized herself, fury in her gaze.

"I'm really starting to get angry."

The Spiritual Energy around her began to surge violently.

Her Divine Soul began to coalesce.

Behind her, a figure appeared, initially just a massive silhouette.

This shadow seemed to be some being.

First, it opened its eyes, shooting black light from its pupils.

Next, its facial features began to become clear.

It was a woman resembling a vampire.

Her skin was a green mixed with dark purple.

Her hair and body were covered with twisting little snakes.

Together, they resembled scorched locks of hair.

Her posture was elegant, with the upper body clothed in black armor, just covering her chest and above.

And the lower body in black leather pants.

The woman's attire was bizarre, with very pronounced features.

Not makeup, but naturally pronounced.

Upon seeing this, everyone began to ponder.

"This seems to be Garona," Shangguan Xian said.

"It's Dark Garona," Xu Zimei smiled.

"It's also her Divine Soul.

A very impressive Divine Soul."

Garona roared, her voice accompanied by piercing screams.

The snakes on her hair seemed to come to life.

Continuously hissing and flicking their tongues.

"Hiss hiss hiss," they screamed chaotically.

Garona exhaled malice, causing the entire void to crumble.

Dark powers emerged.

"Garona's Fury," at this moment, Shangguan Wan'er closed her eyes, her gaze solemn.

Suddenly, her eyes opened wide.

Powerful forces surged continuously.

Garona's eyes opened simultaneously with hers, and the world seemed to plunge into darkness at that moment.
