I am the villain in the book

Chapter 165: Xiao Feng's Trump Card

He ventured alone to the peak of Misty Cloud Mountain.

Instead of immediately killing her, he used her as bait to force my appearance.

This behavior is typical of a movie villain, but it also proves that—

This person is likely Xiao Feng.

After all, the only ones who hold such deep hatred for me now are the Liu family and Xiao Feng.

And the Liu family would definitely resort to assassination, not such a 'self-destructive' tactic.

If it's Xiao Feng, how did he know Yang Liu Shi would be here and manage to abduct her?

Wei Changtian couldn't understand it, unable to think of a reasonable explanation.

"Sigh."

He sighed softly, folding the white silk with the blood writing and tucking it into his sleeve.

Zhang San said in a deep voice beside him:

"Young Master, I will order people to search for the villain's tracks, but the Gongsheng Society still has too few people."

"Do you think we should inform Lord Chen and General Liang, and ask the Suspended Mirror Division and the Azure Robe Army to send some people as well?"

"No need, they won't find him."

Wei Changtian shook his head, not expecting much from finding Xiao Feng.

After fighting this Child of Destiny for so long, he had already come to terms with it.

And if the commotion is too big, Yang Liu Shi might be in danger.

"Bury the deceased brothers well. Everything in the Gongsheng Society will remain as usual for the next ten days. I have other plans."

"Yes."

Zhang San didn't question Wei Changtian's decision, only asked softly: "Young Master, what about us now..."

"..."

Wei Changtian pondered for a moment, then looked up at the sun high above.

"Go to the Heavenly Luo Sect."

An incense stick's time later.

Why did I kill Brother Ren?

Xiao Feng grabbed his hair in agony, his mouth open as if in a silent roar.

Although he had occasionally lost control before, he had always maintained a sliver of clarity in his mind.

Even if he really couldn't suppress the violence in his heart and wanted to kill, he had never laid a hand on those around him.

But why this time...

Looking at Yang Liu Shi, who was unconscious in the corner, Xiao Feng's eyes changed several times, filled with various complex emotions.

Although he was in a state of madness at the time, perhaps that was precisely why he knew his true thoughts.

That night in the Wei Manor, the "multiple-choice question" posed by Wei Changtian had become his inner demon. If he didn't eliminate it, he might never overcome this "hurdle" and would be destined to fail to step into the "Upper Three Ranks."

Such opportunities are rare.

Perhaps he would be killed by Wei Changtian, or perhaps Wei Changtian simply didn't care about Yang Liu Shi's life or death... But similarly, the one who laughed last might be himself.

Brother Ren was right.

Wei Changtian is now at the height of his power, while the Xuantian Society is already on the verge of collapse.

Although he really shouldn't have engaged in a direct conflict at this time, would the opportunity be greater if he dragged it out?

Moreover, he was not without support.

In that case, let's make an end of it.

Suddenly, a look of unprecedented determination appeared on Xiao Feng's face.

He slowly got up and walked to Yang Liu Shi, taking out two bottles of pills from his pocket, shaking out one from each into his palm.

One was a healing pill, and the other was a fasting pill.

He fed her the pills and sealed her acupoints.

Yang Liu Shi would not die within ten days, but she would also be unable to mobilize a trace of strength in her body.

After doing all this, Xiao Feng carefully picked up the Xuantian Sword, and pure internal force began from the sword hilt, extending little by little towards the blade.

Ordinary swords can only attach internal force to the surface, while divine weapons can carry the blessing of internal force throughout the body.

And the Xuantian Sword, as the weapon that Xiao Feng used from beginning to end in the original novel, has even surpassed the level of a "divine weapon", belonging to the same level of treasure as the Starry Sky Sword Sheath.

It can be said that words like 'cutting copper and chopping iron,' 'slicing gold and severing jade,' and 'blowing hair and breaking blades' are all derogatory when used on the Xuantian Sword.

As for the precious knife "Dragon's Roar" worth a thousand gold that Wei Changtian is currently using, it is a younger brother compared to the Xuantian Sword.

As for why the Xuantian Sword is so awesome.

Other functions are secondary, the main reason is that it, like Xiao Yan's ring that hides the soul of Yao Lao, also hides the remnant soul of an ancient cultivator!

"Clang!!"

A sword cry suddenly echoed in the cave, Xiao Feng's face instantly turned pale, and a few strands of white hair appeared inexplicably at his temples.

He tried his best to steady himself, gently placed the Xuantian Sword in front of him, and then suddenly bit the tip of his tongue.

"Pfft!"

Essence blood adhered to the black sword like mist, Xiao Feng wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and then heard a strange and old laughter.

"Jie jie jie jie!"

"Boy, you don't hesitate to sacrifice thirty years of your life to awaken me. It seems you've encountered big trouble!"

"Senior Ji."

Xiao Feng shook his head with a wry smile and briefly explained the matter.

However, after listening, the mysterious voice not only didn't help to come up with ideas, but instead mocked him to the best of its ability: "You can't even solve such a small matter, you really are a waste."

"I don't even know why the Xuantian Sword recognized you as its master in the first place."

"In my opinion, you might as well obediently hand over your life and the Xuantian Sword to that Wei Changtian, so that I can probably recover my soul body sooner."

"Senior..."

Xiao Feng didn't get angry or refute anything when he heard this, but instead cupped his fist towards the Xuantian Sword with great sincerity.

"I implore Senior to help this junior this time."

"..."

This time, the wisp of remnant soul did not answer immediately.

After a moment of silence, the voice echoed in the cave again.

"Forget it, if you really die, I don't know how many years I'll have to wait for someone else to notice my existence."

"But I never do a losing business."

"Saving your life, eliminating your great enemy, breaking your inner demon, such a good thing that kills three birds with one stone, how much lifespan should I ask for from you?"

"You're only at the Sixth Rank now, you can live up to a hundred years at most..."

"And you've already used up thirty years just now."

"Jie jie jie jie!"

"Boy, I'll just be straightforward! Another thirty years, do you agree?!"

Another thirty years of life.

Just as the remnant soul said, the lifespan of a Sixth Rank martial artist can be up to a hundred years, but that is the most ideal situation. Generally speaking, it is good to live to be eighty or ninety years old.

Xiao Feng is over twenty years old this year, and he has already paid thirty years of his life to awaken the remnant soul. If he loses another thirty years...

This means that he basically has less than ten years to live.

Although improving the realm will increase lifespan, the increase is actually not significant.

What's more, with so little lifespan left, where would he have so much time to cultivate?

With such a price, anyone else here would probably choose to give up.

Kill Yang Liu Shi, and then disappear from now on, no longer thinking about revenge.

But Xiao Feng's character has already destined that he will not choose this way.

"I agree."

The answer echoed in the cave, without even a moment's hesitation.

"..."

The remnant soul paused.

"I underestimated you."

"Perhaps it wasn't necessarily wrong for the Xuantian Sword to recognize you as its master."

The change in the remnant soul's attitude did not cause any emotional fluctuations in Xiao Feng.

He just asked calmly:

"Senior Ji, forgive this junior's rudeness, but how do you plan to help me when you are just a wisp of remnant soul?"

"Hahahaha, I can't really help you, but I can order others to help you!"

"Others?"

Xiao Feng frowned: "Senior, I said just now that Wei Changtian has great power, and may even be able to mobilize Second Rank masters..."

"Second Rank?"

The remnant soul's tone was quite disdainful, and at the same time, it was somewhat complacent and arrogant.

"Since I have promised you, I will naturally do it!"

"Isn't it just Second Rank?"

"I'll give you five! Is that enough?!"
