I am the villain in the book

The world is vast, with righteousness comes evil, and with good comes wickedness.

There are those like the Heavenly Luo Sect who, having done nothing wrong, are labeled a "Devil Sect" simply for possessing top-tier cultivation techniques, ultimately leading to their despair and resignation.

And there are also hypocrites who have clearly committed many misdeeds but continue to present themselves as "righteous."

Clearly, righteousness and evil, good and wickedness, do not exist in isolation. In many cases, they exist in a form where 'you are in me, and I am in you'.

And since there are these villains who were 'forced to join the Liangshan Mountain', as well as countless hypocrites, there must also be chivalrous individuals like Xiao Feng, who would 'rather the world betray me than I betray the world', and genuine villains who commit all kinds of evil.

Without a doubt, the four individuals before us belong to the latter category.

A dagger hidden in a smile – Duan Fangping.

A beast in human skin – Lu Teng.

A collection of all poisons – Sun Renming.

Shameless – Qiu Zhizhou.

From these nicknames, known to everyone in Dajue, it is not difficult to see what kind of people these four masters are.

One is insidious and cunning, one is ruthless, one is extremely venomous, and one is without shame.

As the leading figures of the "villain world" in Dajue, these four can be said to be truly wicked.

And this is clearly inseparable from their "twisted" values.

Just like people in their previous lives always liked to think about philosophical questions like "Why do people live?", the cultivators in this world also like to ponder a question: What is the purpose of cultivation?

In the nearly ten thousand years of history, mankind has come up with many answers to this question.

Some feel it is to break through illusions and reveal the truth, to obtain great freedom from the six realms.

Of course, some people simply want to "do whatever they want."

Here, "do whatever they want" not only refers to being able to do anything they want after gaining strength, but also to being able to do anything to obtain even greater power.

In other words, in the eyes of these people, all their actions are completely governed by their "inner desires" and are not subject to any moral or legal constraints.

They only believe in one thing, and that is "the strong are respected."

In fact, "the strong are respected" is not considered a twisted value, especially in the world of cultivation. It can even be called an eternal truth.

But you must know that this is only a low-martial world after all. The limit of individual martial power is not high, and dynasties and imperial power are still the cornerstones of the world's operation.

In this case, if someone unreservedly "practices" the four words "the strong are respected", they will often be crowned with the title of "villain."

Duan Fangping and the other three are like this.

The four of them are like rats crossing the street in Dajue, relying on their considerable strength to do evil everywhere all day long.

If they hear that a certain sect has a treasure, they will go to steal it. If they are discovered, they will simply change it to robbery.

If they make enemies with someone, they will kill their entire family. If they can't beat them head-on, they will resort to scheming and sneak attacks.

If the court sends people to hunt them down, they will flee. If they are no longer being pursued, they will come out again and continue to smash, loot, and burn.

Although these days are a bit precarious, they can be regarded as "happy lives."

Until Dajue went to war with Daning, the four gradually heard about Wei Changtian's "glorious deeds."

Killing the prime minister, killing the emperor.

Establishing a new dynasty, defeating a million-strong army alone.

When the various "evil deeds" that Wei Changtian had done were exaggerated and spread to the ears of the four, they suddenly realized that compared with Wei Changtian, what they had done before was like children playing house.

They were complacent after killing an enemy, but he had already killed three emperors!

They were proud of robbing a young woman, but he had already supported a "mistress" to rebel and become king!

They were complacent after destroying a small sect, but he had already run to destroy the country of his enemies!

Ah!

So this is the spirit and pattern of a "top villain"!

Listening to Wei Changtian's deeds and reflecting on their own narrowness, the four felt ashamed and also sincerely developed a kind of worship and yearning for Wei Changtian.

Could it be that their lives will continue to be so "mediocre"?

No!

Even if they can't be like Young Master Wei, they must personally witness the rise of the evil path!

It has to be said that Duan Fangping and the other three are indeed very "pursuing."

After realizing that "the revival of the evil path is everyone's responsibility", they immediately disbanded their subordinates and then packed their luggage and went all the way west to join their idol.

However, "chasing stars" is not an easy task.

Mainly because Wei Changtian's whereabouts are very uncertain, they really don't know where to find him, so they can only try their luck everywhere based on the few pieces of information they have.

They went to the capital of Daning, went to Fengyuan, went to Shuzhou... Months passed, and they still failed to catch up with their idol's footsteps.

But the four did not give up. After hearing that Wei Changtian had killed Lv Yuansong and Lv Xiangshan in Dahui, they rushed to Yongding non-stop.

To be precise, they arrived in Yongding City this noon.

As soon as they entered the city, the four went to Zhuwu according to the information they had inquired about, but at that time, Wei Changtian and his party had already gone to visit Daguan Garden, so they were empty again.

Disheartened, the four thought about finding a place to eat a meal first and then discuss their next actions.

But they didn't expect that hard work pays off. They finally found Wei Changtian by accident in Zuixian Tower.

"Wuwuwu! Young Master Wei! This is really God's will!"

"Yes! I didn't expect that the Young Master would happen to be in this restaurant, and we happened to kick open the Young Master's door! If this isn't God's will, then what is it!"

"Young Master Wei! These four lives of ours will be yours from now on!"

"That's right! We don't ask for anything else! We only ask to see with our own eyes how our evil path will trample those famous and righteous sects under our feet!"

"Please fulfill our request, Young Master!"

"."

The wailing shouts lasted for almost a quarter of an hour, and the four of them knelt for a quarter of an hour.

And when they had finished telling why they had come to join him with great excitement, the hardships along the way, and the joy at this moment, Wei Changtian was dumbfounded.

This is also possible?

I have only heard of who and who is charitable and righteous, which can attract capable people to take the initiative to join him.

I have never heard of doing bad things can also attract fans.

More importantly, is what they said true or false?

"Cough!"

He coughed lightly and turned to look at Li Zimu.

The latter, although with a strange expression, nodded quickly, indicating that the four had not lied.

Okay, it's true.

Rolling his eyes almost imperceptibly, Wei Changtian quickly thought for a moment, and then made a decision.

He suddenly walked up to the four, his expression instantly became extremely enthusiastic, and laughed in a most cheerful tone:

"Hahahaha! So that's it!"

"Four seniors, please get up quickly!"

"Don't say anything about selling your lives for me! It's an honor for you four to come!"

"From now on, let's work together! Strive to revive and promote the evil path as soon as possible!"
