I am the villain in the book

This was the first time Xiao Feng had felt so powerless.

Third-Rank Realm.

Apart from a few old geezers, this was already the top tier of combat power in the entire Da Ning.

Although Xiao Feng believed that he would one day inevitably reach this realm, and even go further.

He also had to live to see that day.

Beads of cold sweat trickled down his forehead. Before he could steady himself, he turned and shot off in another direction, his speed even faster than before.

At the same time that he disappeared, Wei Xianzhi leisurely emerged from the shadows of the bamboo forest, casually muttering:

"Changtian was right, this boy does have some tricks up his sleeve."

"I wonder what kind of cultivation technique he practices, to be able to forcibly raise his power by a whole realm. I'm afraid even ordinary Fifth-Rank cultivators wouldn't be a match for him."

"What a pity..."

Casting his gaze in the direction Xiao Feng had fled, Wei Xianzhi shook his head and sighed before stepping in that direction, seemingly not worried that the former could escape.

...

"Wei Xianzhi!"

"You wait! One day, I will make the entire Wei family disappear completely!!"

On the other side, the night wind whistled past his ears like a knife, Xiao Feng's eyes already bloodshot.

Although he hadn't seen who attacked him, Third-Rank experts weren't as common as cabbages. With a little thought, he knew that this person must be the great devil who killed his entire family.

To be forced to run away like a rat when facing his mortal enemy was undoubtedly the most frustrating thing.

What's more, Xiao Feng simply couldn't understand how Wei Xianzhi knew he would come to the Wei Manor.

If they had known his whereabouts all along, why hadn't they attacked before, and waited until today?

And why wasn't Wei Xianzhi chasing him?

That's right... Why wasn't he chasing?

Boom!

Suddenly, his subconscious mind issued another blaring alarm, frantically reminding him that he had reached another critical moment of life and death.

There was another expert!!!

A muffled sound erupted from the area where his right shoulder connected to his chest, as if he had been suddenly struck by an invisible boulder.

The intense impact sent Xiao Feng flying several feet away, and then he "thumped" heavily onto the ground.

His entire right arm was shattered into countless pieces, and the ribs in his right chest were probably all broken.

A Seventh-Rank martial artist, facing two sneak attacks from Third-Rank experts in a row, yet not dying.

Xiao Feng had already reached an unbelievably awesome level to be able to do this.

If it were a villain like Wei Changtian...

No need to even think about it, he would probably have died countless times already.

It was a pity that even with heaven-defying luck, there was still a limit.

And in front of an elephant, there was no difference between a strong ant and a weak ant.

The excruciating pain and the crisis of death did not cause Xiao Feng to lose consciousness. He struggled to look up at the beautiful woman walking closer step by step. No matter how unwilling he was, he had to accept the reality—

At this moment, his life and death were no longer in his own hands.

...

"You don't need to look at me like that."

Qin Caizhen, dressed in luxurious clothes, looked down at Xiao Feng. She had seen this kind of hateful gaze too many times, so she didn't feel anything special at the moment, only smiling gently: "Since you want to snatch the Wei family's daughter-in-law, then you must be prepared to lose your life."

"There is no such thing as a free lunch in this world. Remember this lesson in your next life."

As she spoke, Qin Caizhen slightly raised a hand, estimating that when her palm fell, Xiao Feng would kick the bucket.

But at this moment, Wei Xianzhi suddenly remembered something and hurriedly stopped her, saying: "Madam, wait a moment!"

"Didn't Changtian tell us... if we catch him alive, don't rush to kill him?"

"Hmm..."

Qin Caizhen frowned and pondered for a moment, then nodded: "It seems like he did say that."

Wei Xianzhi slapped his forehead: "Hey, look at us, we're both getting old and muddled, we almost forgot what our son told us."

Qin Caizhen rolled her eyes: "If you're old, you're old, I'm still young!"

Wei Xianzhi hurriedly changed his tune: "Yes, yes, yes, I'm getting old and muddled, you'll always be the youngest and most beautiful!"

"Hmph, that's more like it..."

"..."

The two of them suddenly started flirting with each other, which made Xiao Feng, who was already seriously injured, feel extremely humiliated.

"Cough! Cough cough cough!"

As the protagonist, he had never been ignored like this before. In a fit of anger, he coughed up a large mouthful of blood on the spot, his eyes rolling back as if he was about to die.

Qin Caizhen was a little anxious when she saw this scene. She couldn't be bothered to communicate her feelings with her husband, so she quickly reached out and flicked a healing pill into Xiao Feng's mouth: "Don't rush to die yet! Hold on for a while longer!"

"Madam, don't worry! Someone! Quickly go and call Changtian over!"

Wei Xianzhi also hurriedly shouted to a group of plainclothes guards beside him: "Tell him to hurry up! If he's any later, the person might die!"

"Yes! Lord Wei!"

The people from the Suspended Mirror Division were indeed professionally trained. No matter how funny the situation was, they could always maintain a straight face and carry out orders seriously.

But before they could go and call someone, a voice came from not far away.

"No need to call, I'm here."

The person speaking was of course Wei Changtian, with Lu Jingyao following beside him.

Lu Jingyao originally had a blank expression, but when she saw the bloodied person on the ground, her blankness instantly turned into astonishment.

"Xiao, Young Master Xiao..."

Her trembling voice was filled with unparalleled heartache, and Xiao Feng also raised his head at this moment, his eyes seemingly filled with endless guilt and apology.

"Yao, Yao'er, I'm sorry..."

"It's because I'm useless, I couldn't, couldn't fulfill the promise between us..."

These two sentences of apology were like bullets hitting Lu Jingyao's heart.

"I won't allow you to say that!"

She staggered and threw herself on Xiao Feng, tears streaming down her beautiful face: "Why, why did you come..."

"I... cough cough cough! I just didn't want you to be wronged..."

"Wuwuwu, why are you so stupid..."

"I don't know, maybe I'm willing to be stupid for you once..."

"..."

Lu Jingyao and Xiao Feng began to pour out their hearts to each other, sentence by sentence.

Wei Changtian watched this Qiong Yao-esque scene with his arms crossed, his heart without any waves.

On the other hand, Wei Xianzhi and Qin Caizhen were a little anxious for their son.

In their opinion, secretly killing Xiao Feng behind Lu Jingyao's back was the most appropriate thing to do. Now that the two had met, it was hard to say that this daughter-in-law who had just entered the door would turn around and commit suicide.

But since their son didn't say anything, they didn't interfere and watched from the sidelines to see how Wei Changtian would end this.

...

The evening breeze gently blew the clothes of everyone present.

The plainclothes guards held up several torches, and a willow leaf-like bright moon hung in the center of the night sky, scattering faint silver light that intertwined with the firelight.

Just as a dark cloud covered the moon, leaving only the red glow of the firelight around, Wei Changtian finally spoke.

"Have you said almost everything you wanted to say?"

He stepped a little closer, his tone calm: "It's my turn to say a few words."

"..."

These words seemed to remind Lu Jingyao.

She suddenly turned around and hugged Wei Changtian's leg, kneeling on the ground and pleading desperately: "I'm, I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."

"It's all my fault, please, please let Xiao Feng go..."

"I will listen to you from now on, really, anything is fine!"

"..."

Lu Jingyao kept begging humbly at his feet, but Wei Changtian didn't look at her. He only lowered his head and sized up Xiao Feng, who looked extremely miserable.

This was the first time he had seen Xiao Feng.

Not much different from what he had imagined, the standard appearance and temperament of a protagonist from a common novel.

It was the kind of person who wasn't very conspicuous, but when standing in a crowd, could make people see at a glance that "He is the protagonist!" feeling.

"Let me introduce myself, Wei Changtian."

Wei Changtian looked down from above, his tone seemingly teasing.

Xiao Feng, who was already at his mercy, didn't say any harsh words like "I will definitely take revenge." Instead, he took a deep breath and slowly asked the doubts in his heart: "How did you know I would come?"

Wei Changtian calmly asked in return: "For a dying person, does knowing this still have any meaning?"

"Cough, that's true."

Xiao Feng coughed up another mouthful of blood, smiling miserably: "Do it, today's events were my own doing, I hope you won't make things difficult for Yao'er."

"Tsk tsk, what a pair of doomed lovers."

Wei Changtian clicked his tongue and wasn't angry. Instead, he changed the subject and suddenly said something that surprised everyone.

"But who said you would definitely die today?"

"..."

Xiao Feng was instantly stunned: "You, what do you mean?"

Wei Changtian didn't rush to answer.

He looked at Lu Jingyao, who was looking up at him with surprise on her face, and then slowly replied as if he was chatting: "I am a wicked person who has committed many evils and killed countless people."

"But I have two advantages."

"The first is that I will definitely do what I promise."

"The second is that I will never push people to the point where they have no way out, even if they are enemies, I will give them a choice."

"Now, I will give you such a chance."

"Clang!"

Suddenly, the saber at the waist of a plainclothes guard was unsheathed. Wei Changtian lightly held the hilt, and the cold tip of the sword drooped between Xiao Feng and Lu Jingyao.

"Xiao Feng, today I can let one of you two go."

"Who lives and who dies, you choose."
