Eternal Villain: I can enslave Reality!

Chapter 65 65: Unravel

?'A fragment?'

Xu Shan curiously looked at the two people in the sky. He still wasn't completely sure what those fragments were.

He had initially thought that they were the Books of Heaven but according to Xinren, there were only seven books. That's why he was suspicious if those Fragments were actually the books since there were nine Fragments.

He wanted to ask Xinren about it. However, he hadn't seen her ever since he killed Ji Yang back in the Esti Kingdom. She hadn't shown up even once after that. He was slightly concerned if something happened to her. However, he couldn't do anything about that.

'Which of the two has the Fragment? The older one is stronger while the younger one has more potential...'

All he knew was that there was a fragment with one of the two people that had just arrived. He was more prone to believe that it was the young man who had the fragment since the last person who had it was also a young man. However, that was just his guess for the time being.

"It looks like people from the Celestial Palace have a bad habit of standing above people's heads?" Xu Shan asked, gazing at the two people who were still in the sky. It was the same for the Elders who had arrived in the Eternal Dynasty last time.

The young man in the sky didn't show much reaction. It was as if he was just observing Xu Shan, trying to see through his behavior. However, for some reason, he also felt as if Xu Shan was looking at him like a predator. It was just a subconscious feeling he had.

From what he had seen, that behavior wasn't like a good man who would go out of his way to save people, especially someone from the Celestial Palace.

In any case, he landed on the ground with the Great Elder right next to him.

"I am no one important," Yu Ming responded, staying one step behind the Great Elder. However, from his gaze, it was clear that his words were a lie. "I am just a disciple of the Celestial Palace who happened to be accompanying the Great Elder."

"May I ask what brought you here today?" The Great Elder took the lead, asking Xu Shan's purpose in his sudden arrival.

Even though he didn't use any of his aura, just his words alone gave a feeling of suppression to everyone present there.

Most of the disciples lowered their heads, as if feeling that their eyes were heavy just by watching a supreme existence like the Great Elder of the Celestial Palace.

In fact, even Xu Shan felt the strange phenomenon yet he managed to resist it, directly looking at the Great Elder, not revealing even the slightest of discomfort.

Deep inside, he understood that if the fragment was with the old man, then it was close to impossible for him to retrieve it. He could only hope that the young man had it.

"I'm here on my father's orders," Xu Shan answered. His own identity wasn't significant enough yet, that could allow him to enter the Celestial Palace. So he could only borrow the name of his father.

"What orders?" The Great Elder inquired. Even Yu Ming paid attention.

Xu Shan smiled, taking a glance at Yu Ming. "I'm to meet the father of this 'not so important' person and discuss an alliance between the Eternal Dynasty and the Celestial Palace against the Qin Dynasty."

This was the excuse he decided to go with, to gain an entry. In any case, he didn't really have any interest in this alliance. He just wanted to use this as an excuse to enter and then leave after his work was done.

As for fighting in the war with the Celestial Palace, the Eternal Dynasty had no need to enter this mess and suffer losses for themselves when they could just be like a hunter waiting for their two prey to fight and weaken themselves.

Hearing the response, Yu Ming revealed a frown. He could feel sarcasm in Xu Shan's words. It was clear that the man had figured out his identity already.

He didn't know how Xu Shan managed to guess it. He had a feeling that it was because he came with the Great Elders which no ordinary disciples could do.

There were only two possibilities in that case. One was that the young man was a disciple of the Great Elder and the second was that he was the son of the Palace Master who had more freedom than anyone else.

Usually, a person would've gone with the first possibility. However, from the way the Great Elder looked at Yu Ming, it was clear that they weren't master and disciple, which only left one possibility.

Yu Ming opened his lips, as if to speak something. However, before he could even articulate one word, Xu Shan chimed in. "However, before we do that, I remember you saying that you'll allow this life and death battle?"

"That's right. If that's what you want." Yu Ming nodded. In any case, it was demanded by Xu Shan himself and even his own guard was a witness. So this had nothing to do with the Celestial Palace.

Even if Xu Shan died, they didn't bear any responsibility. At best, they could just abandon the red haired woman in the end.

There was another reason he wanted to see this battle. It was to see just what secrets this young man had!

His behavior definitely didn't match that of a Mortal. No mortal would've fought with a Celestial General in sane mind. Was it really a bluff? Or was this guy hiding a secret that no one knew? Was he a Celestial Warrior? Yu Ming wanted to see through Xu Shan's every secret through this battle!

If Xu Shan actually turned out to be a Celestial Warrior who hid his identity from everyone else, then that was going to prove that he was a really cunning man, and maybe even behind what happened with his sister!

He believed he could unravel many secrets with his fight.

Xu Shan gazed at Yu Ming, as if being able to see through his thoughts. For him, it wasn't hard to see that Yu Ming was suspicious of him and he could also guess why. However, that didn't change anything.

He had no enmity with those two people, but because one of those two had the fragment that he needed, he couldn't let them be.

He had already planned everything as soon as he saw the two new guests arrive.
