Strongest Villain System

A few figures were standing in the room. One of them was less than five feet tall, wearing a pitch-black cloak. He was especially eye-catching. His face was as cold as a blade, and his gaze was like an extremely northern glacier. There was not a trace of emotion in his eyes. A black snake-shaped dagger was spinning in his palm, like a poisonous snake. It was deadly if it did not move.    

"Gu Huang must die." A Nascent Divinity Realm old man in blood-red clothes said with a voice filled with cold killing intent. It added a bit of killing intent to the dark night.    

"It's difficult." A blood-red-robed old man at the side shook his head slightly. His gaze was obviously a bit hesitant. If Gu Huang was here, he would have realized that it was the person who had wanted to assassinate the Death Priest before the arrival of the Pharaoh King.    

"Humph! What's so difficult about it? Our Blood God Temple is not afraid of anyone." An old assassin in a black robe said, his eyes flashing with a cold light.    

"Gu Huang must die. How can our Blood God Temple's thousand years of prestige be destroyed in one moment?" The snake-shaped dagger in the youth's palm flashed with a bloody light, full of demonic charm.    

"No, no, absolutely not. We must not attack Gu Huang. Give up on the plan to assassinate Gu Huang. Otherwise, it will bring a disaster to our Blood God Temple." A figure appeared out of thin air. The person was dressed in a black robe. His entire body seemed to be covered in shadows, as if he did not exist at all. If he did not take the initiative to appear, even if he stood in front of you, you would not be able to easily discover him.    

"Why?"    

The three Nascent Divinity assassins, as well as the black-cloaked youth, looked at the black figure, their eyes flickering with incomparable doubt.    

"This is how it is. We must not make a move against Gu Huang now. Otherwise, anyone who touches him will be unlucky." The black figure explained the conflict between Gu Huang and the Spirit King Palace, and even the Spirit King Palace chose to back off. Now that they were in the limelight, who would dare to make a move?    

"Gather the will of the people, and the Humanistic Karmic Luck. Damn it, how could this be? What kind of background does this Gu Huang have?"    

"Origin Daozi and Ancient King Golden Sun have chosen to back off. Now, who else can suppress this child's brilliance?"    

"It doesn't matter. Even with the protection of the Karmic Luck, it is only for those at the realm of King and above. Those below the realm of King don't have so much to worry about."    

The assassins were not the only ones who were moved. Gu Huang had actually obtained the will of the people and the Humanistic Karmic Luck, causing Origin Daozi and Ancient King Golden Sun to bow their heads. It had to be said that his luck was really good, but it was not without a chance.    

"Gu Huang, since you are not willing to be a friend of my Blood God Hall, then you are my enemy. Help me contact Lu Ningshuang and the people of the Spirit King Palace. I think she is very willing to join forces with me. After all, this is our common enemy."    

The snake-shaped dagger in the youth's palm flashed with a bloody light from time to time, and his voice was so cold that it made people tremble from the depths of their bones.    

"But Your Highness, Gu Huang is currently in the limelight. I'm afraid that if I want to kill him..." The black-robed assassin said in a deep voice, his expression slightly embarrassed.    

"We are assassins. We will do anything to achieve our goals." The young man's gaze was like a poisonous snake, filled with endless terror.    

"Understood." The black figure disappeared, as if it had never appeared before.    

—    

North of the city, Taibai Pavilion.    

Gu Huang went up to the fourth floor alone, sitting in an elegant room near the window, "You haven't shown yourself after following me all the way?"    

A blue water curtain appeared in the void, forming many ripples. A figure appeared from within, shockingly, it was Yu Chenxi. "Gu Huang, I knew I wouldn't be able to hide it from you."    

"The Water Elemental Heart, it really lives up to its reputation! As expected of one of the three great divine arts passed down from the ancient times of the Rain Clan. Chenxi, sit down! Have a drink with me."    

With the Ancient Sleeve Rolled Up, the wine on the table automatically flew into the cup.    

"Gu Huang, don't you blame me?" Yu Chenxi's eyes, which were as bright as stars, were filled with deep remorse and guilt. She had been hiding beside the fight between Gu Huang and the Spiritual King Palace, and had not made a move at all. She was very clear that even if she did make a move, it would be useless. A fight of this level was far from what she could intervene in. However, this matter concerned Gu Huang, so she had to explain it clearly. Otherwise, if the misunderstanding deepened, then this friend of hers would be useless.    

"Blame you? Why should I blame you? Do you think I'm that petty?" Gu Huang smiled slightly, and picked up the cup on the table and drank it all in one gulp.    

"Gu Huang, I'm sorry..." Yu Chenyu's eyes were filled with guilt. She had thousands of words in her heart, but she couldn't say a single word.    

"Chenyu, you don't have to apologize. You have your own difficulties. I can understand. Speak! What do you want to do with me?" Gu Huang's eyes were filled with incomparable calmness. He poured another cup of wine.    

"Gu Huang, I... have had enough... I want to become stronger... I want to truly change the fate of the Yu Clan... Please help me."    

Yu Chenyu's eyes were filled with yearning. She had seen the result of today's battle. Without strength, she could only be reduced to an ant and be killed by others. Therefore, she wanted to become stronger and change the fate of the Yu Clan from the root.    

"Are you sure? This road is not as easy as you think. This road is filled with hardships and obstacles. If you are not careful, you will die, and you might even lose the entire Yu Clan."    

Gu Huang's voice was filled with seriousness. This was a path of no return. The revival of the human race was destined to step on the corpses of tens of thousands of people. Once it was decided, there was no way to regret it.    

"Gu Huang, I have decided. Just as you said, the Human Clan has lost too much. What is there to be afraid of? The most miserable thing is to be exterminated. If you cannot be reborn in the blood, then you will die in the blood."    

Yu Chenyu's expression was incomparably firm. It was clear that she had already made her decision. This was a path of no return, but she had no other choice.    

"Chenyu, don't be so anxious to answer me. Think about it carefully. After I return from the Mysterious Sun Realm, I will listen to your final reply." Gu Huang picked up another cup of wine and drank it all.    

"Gu Huang, don't think about it. This is my decision. Moreover, I want to enter the Mysterious Sun Realm with you." Yu Chenxi's eyes were filled with determination. It was obvious that she could not allow Gu Huang to refuse.    

"Chenyu, if you treat me as a friend, then listen to my advice. Don't enter the Mysterious Sun Realm." Gu Huang's eyes flickered with helplessness as he quietly looked out the window.    

"Why, Gu Huang, I won't drag you down." Yu Chenxi did not understand, but she already had an answer in her heart. It was most likely because Gu Huang was worried about her safety.    

"Chenyu, those who enter the Mysterious Sun Realm are all my enemies. In the end, either I come out alive or I die in there." Gu Huang's eyes were filled with endless coldness and killing intent. From the map that Ancient King Qing Lie had given him, the Mysterious Sun Realm was most likely a part of the mist ruins. Anyone who dared to have any ideas would be his enemy.    

"Gu Huang, you..." Yu Chenxi looked at Gu Huang in shock. She did not doubt Gu Huang's words. It was obvious that he was determined to die, but she was very confused in her heart. Why did Gu Huang want to do this?    

"Don't ask so much, Chenyu. Promise me that you won't go to the Mysterious Sun Realm. I don't want to fight with you." Gu Huang sighed heavily. His eyes were filled with helplessness. It was not that he could not explain it, but that he could not explain it at all.    

"Alright, Gu Huang, I won't go in, but you have to promise me that you will definitely come out alive." A trace of helplessness filled the depths of Yu Chenxi's eyes. Gu Huang was too mysterious, and his entire body was filled with secrets. Furthermore, his heart had always been sealed, and no one could truly enter his heart.    

"Chenxi, I'm sorry, but I can't promise you this." Gu Huang's eyes looked out into the sky, filled with endless loneliness.    

"Gu Huang, take this." Yu Chenxi took out a red heart-shaped blood jade from her body. There were countless runes carved on it, and it was filled with an ancient feeling. With a flash of light from her palm, she cut the jade and sent half of it to Gu Huang's palm.    

"Chenxi, you... No, you can't... Absolutely can't..." Gu Huang's gaze froze, and he immediately refused. The heart-shaped jade in front of him was the Heartheart Seal of the Rain Clan, which was passed down from generation to generation. It had all kinds of magical effects. If the two of them each held half of it, they could sense each other's position, and they could ignore distance and space. The half of the seal could instantly be transmitted to the other side.    

"Gu Huang, why are you not willing to accept it? Is it because I'm a foreign race, or is it because I have an engagement with Ling Wuming? I don't ask for our future, I just want you to know that there will always be someone waiting for you."    

Yu Chenxi did not hesitate at all, and openly admitted her feelings. She knew that if she did not say it today, she would probably regret it for the rest of her life.    

"Chenchen, I..." Gu Huang's heart was filled with mixed feelings. He wanted to reject her again, but when he saw Yu Chenchen's eyes, he couldn't say a word. He was not a heartless person, but he didn't dare to make a promise so easily.    

"Don't say anything. I understand. Gu Huang, don't have any misgivings." Yu Chenchen turned around and left. Her eyes were filled with complicated emotions. She didn't know whether it was right or wrong today, but she just wanted to say what she wanted to say. She didn't want to regret it one day.    

"Sigh!" Gu Huang looked at the halfhearted heart symbol in his hand and sighed heavily. In his previous life and his current life, he was an emotional idiot. But no matter how stupid he was, how could he not know what Yu Chenchen was thinking?    

"Young Lord, the hardest thing to do is to forget the kindness of a beautiful woman! How many heroes have fallen in the hands of beauties? Young Lord, you must be alert!"    

Old Fire's voice was also filled with long sighs. Gu Huang had great ambitions. He didn't want to see Gu Huang be worn out and stop his advance.    

"Alright, Old Fire, I know what to do. Get ready. It's time to set off." Gu Huang fused the heart symbol into his divine soul. Now, there was no time for romance. Only by having no worries in his heart could he have no worries in the future.    

"Young Lord, hold on. Ling Wuming and Huo Yan'er, are you really planning to work with them? And the Blood God Temple's king body and Lu Ningshuang, you have to be careful!"    

Gu Huang's voice carried a bit of seriousness, as if he was an elder. Since ancient times, there had never been a permanent alliance. In the face of benefits, any alliance was laughable to the extreme.    

"Ling Wuming, Huo Yang'er, as long as they don't have any evil thoughts, I might be able to let them live. But Lu Ningshuang and the people from the Blood God Hall must die. If there's a chance, I will kill them outside at all costs."    

Gu Huang's eyes were filled with ruthlessness. If he was kind to his enemies, it would be cruel to himself.    

"Young Lord, if you want to make a move, you have to do it as soon as possible. Otherwise, there will be more trouble in the future. You and the Spirit King Hall must have received the news of the battle. Moreover, they must know that your karmic virtue can manifest. If I were them, I would definitely choose to make a move at this time. Young Lord, you must be careful!"    

Gu Huang's voice was mixed with a bit of coldness. Although he was a stone creature, he had lived for many years. However, he was a very cunning old fox.
