Eternal Villain: I can enslave Reality!
177 Chapter 177: Running out of time
The men in the room finished their conversation. Their footsteps came closer towards the door.
The group stepped out of the room, not realizing that someone was right there just a few seconds ago. Fortunately, Xu Shan stepped out of the room at the right time.
Xu Shan left the area and reached the inner area of the City, mixing with the crowd. The guards were different now, as if their shift had changed and different guards took their place.
Unfortunately, the guards were still so disciplined that they didn't give any opportunity to Xu Shan to kill one. Even when the shifts were changed, the guards left together in groups, entering the Central area which Xu Shan wasn't allowed to enter.
While the Inner Area of the City was luxurious, the Central Area was even more secure with all the famous clans having a building there. All the Royal Guards also lived there. That place was like a new world within the world itself.
Unfortunately, that area had a barrier and entering it was almost impossible even for him, unless he broke the barrier.
Casually, Xu Shan walked as close to the barrier as possible to observe just how strong it was and if he was to break it, how long it was going to take.
To get to the queen, this barrier was his first obstruction. He could fool the portal points at this point, but his Identity Token wasn't going to work on this barrier.
The people who were given the permission to live in the central area were given a different pass.
Moreover, in exchange for that pass, they were tied to a special rule. They were never allowed to leave the Royal City, no matter how urgent it was.
It was a rule made to make sure these passes didn't fall into wrong hands, since the Shadow Hall was still running rampant outside the Royal City.
"This is going to be harder than I thought, especially since time is running out." After observing the barrier briefly, Xu Shan turned around, preparing to leave so as to not raise too much suspicion.
However, as soon as he turned around, he froze. His eyes inadvertently went down to the bracelet in his hand that was given to him in the World of Alchemy.
The bracelet had started shining on its own at the moment, which was only supposed to happen when his target was nearby. Xu Shan also felt the bracelet being attracted to something. And this attraction was coming from a direction that he never expected.
Frowning, he looked towards the barrier behind him, resisting the bracelet trying to pull him in a certain direction.
"She is alive... And she is in the Central Area as well. Is this a blessing or a curse?" He wondered.
Since the girl was in the Central Area as well, that made things slightly convenient for him since he didn't have to go around looking for her all over the continent. On the other hand, this was also a headache since both his targets were in the same area.
....
At the same time, inside the Central Area, there existed a clan. The Luo clan spread for hundreds of thousands of miles. Although this was a large area, it wasn't even one percent of the Central Zone.
The Clan had hundreds of thousands of guards that were, each strong enough to destroy a lower world alone. However, the Real Members of the Clan were even stronger.
It was said that the Great Elder of the Clan was the first person who supported the current Divine Queen when she took over the kingdom from her parents. He even supported her war.
Thanks to his right decisions, the clan got many benefits along the way, soon becoming one of the biggest clans in the Royal City.
Thanks to their closeness to the Royal Family, no one tried to offend them which allowed the clan to grow to such an extent, even using crooked methods. The Queen simply ignored their actions since the Luo Clan knew their limits and never went overboard.
Inside the grand, opulent halls of the clan, a sense of power and prestige lingered in the air. The Great Elder, Luo Zhan, sat on a magnificent throne adorned with intricate designs and precious gems.
He was an elderly man with a strong presence, his eyes sharp as if they could pierce through any deception. Beside him stood a middle aged man.
Although the middle aged man was the current Patriarch of the Clan, that was only in name.
In reality, the true power behind the Luo Clan was the Great Elder, Luo Zhan. The current Patriarch, Luo Jin, was merely a puppet figurehead, and he knew it.
He had once been a promising warrior, but his potential was suppressed, and he was relegated to this position of authority by the Great Elder's manipulation.
"What's happening with the Girl? Did she break through?" The Grand Elder asked the Patriarch of the Clan. Even though he didn't name the girl he was talking about, Luo Jin understood clearly.
Luo Jin looked nervously at Luo Zhan. "Since we threatened her with her family members' lives, she has been listening to everything we say. We used many precious resources, even injecting her with elixirs. Thanks to that, her growth has been going really well."
"Soon, she would break through the Heavenly Celestial. However, since we forcefully strengthened her, her vitality has greatly decreased. It'll get even worse when she breaks through the Heavenly Celestial. She won't be able to live for more than a few days."
The old man simply smirked in response.
"Who cares about her life and death. All I need is for her to survive one night after she breaks through." He licked his lips, thinking of something.
"Thanks to her Physique, once I sleep with her, I'll be able to take all her Celestial Aura without harming my vitality. Thanks to that, I would definitely break through to the next level before the Divine Queen! Then this entire world will be mine!"
He glanced at the Patriarch of the clan. "I am running out of patience. So do it faster! The more we delay, the more we risk the Queen finding out about it. That demoness is the only one who can threaten us."
