Eternal Villain: I can enslave Reality!



The number of guards in the surroundings kept going down. The guards were killed before they could even realize what was going on. 

It was especially worse for the guards who were alone. A trail of blood was left in Xu Shan's wake. Fortunately, before anyone could notice that something was wrong, he reached the mansion. 

Instead of going through the main door, he used his dagger to cut the window and create an opening. 

The glass fell inside the mansion, shattering into hundreds of pieces. 

In the hallway where the glass fell, a servant was carrying some bottles of wine in his hand to deliver to the meeting room when he saw the window glass falling before him, breaking.

At the moment, he was frozen, not even reacting. His pupils shrunk when he noticed a masked man jump inside. 

He subconsciously stepped back, noticing blood dripping down the daggers of the masked man. However, as he was about to run, a dagger came flying at him, hitting straight in the middle of his forehead. 

Blood trickled down the forehead of the man. The wine bottles fell from his hand. However, before the bottles could fall, Xu Shan appeared in front of him. 

He grabbed one of the bottles, letting the rest fall and shatter at his feet. 

Keeping the wine bottle in his left hand, he pulled out the dagger from the man's forehead. 

The man dropped to the ground, his eyes remained open wide, even as he took his last breath. 

Xu Shan raised his mask a little and took a long sip of the wine before tossing the bottle away. 

He arranged his mask and continued deeper into the City Lord's Palace. 

Unlike the small clan, the City Lord's Palace had a lot more precautions. The Divine Sense could only cover up to a few meters, which made it impossible to look through the palace.

Fortunately, despite being unable to see through the whole palace, he had a rough idea as to where everyone else was. Yunxi's grandfather had come to the mansion many times. He knew quite a lot about this palace. 

Thanks to the old man's help, Xu Shan had a rough idea. 

He navigated through the labyrinthine corridors. Every now and then, he heard the distant sound of footsteps or the hushed conversations of the palace staff, which he ignored. 

It was only when he came across the guards that he took action, taking them out. 

As Xu Shan reached the central courtyard, he noticed a group of guards gathered near the entrance of the meeting room. 

They seemed to be discussing something, their voices filled with tension. 

Seeing the number of guards here, it became evident that the people he was looking for were on the other side of the door. 

Drawing upon his training and experience, Xu Shan devised a plan. He picked up a small pebble from the ground and tossed it in a direction away from the meeting room. 

The guards, distracted by the noise, immediately turned their attention towards the sound. They went to check, and make sure the premise was secure, since no one else was allowed here. This gave Xu Shan the opportunity he needed.

Swift as a shadow, he darted across the courtyard, his footsteps silent and his body blending seamlessly with the darkness. 

He could hear the muffled voices of several people, including the City Lord's wife, discussing matters of great importance. The urgency in their tone made Xu Shan quite amazed, since they were talking about finding the killers at any cost. 

The guards who chased after the sound soon realized that something was wrong. Other than the initial noise, there was no further movement. 

They soon thought of something and rushed back. 

Taking a deep breath, Xu Shan pushed open the door and stepped into the room. The door closed behind him, before the guards returned. 

The occupants turned their heads in surprise, their eyes widening as they saw the masked intruder standing before them.

The City Lord's Wife, a wise and respected figure, was the first to recover from the shock. Her eyes narrowed as she noticed the strange attire of the intruder, who carried a dagger in each hand. 

"Who are you? How dare you barge inside?" An old man stood up, slamming the table before him. 

"I thought I should show myself to make things easier for you. You've been looking for me after all," Xu Shan answered. His voice remained heavy, yet gave no hint of his actual age. It was as if behind the mask was a middle aged man. 

"Looking for you?" The City Lord's wife frowned. "You are...?"

Even in her wildest dreams, she didn't think that the killer of her husband was going to show himself before her. 

Xu Shan raised his hand, bringing a small coin out of his pocket, which had the seal of the City Lord. He flipped the coin, as if doing a toss or playing with it.

Seeing the City Lord's token in the hand of the masked person, almost everyone was momentarily frozen. There was not a single person in the hall who didn't recognise it. 

The other members of the meeting, though initially taken aback by Xu Shan's sudden appearance, quickly realized the gravity of the situation. 

Before them was the person who wiped out most of the Royal Army placed in this city, along with the City Lord himself. And now he was right before them?

Let alone the fact that he managed to get inside undetected, but just his courage alone was stunning. 

"Were you missing death so much that you decided to come for it yourself?" A dark haired man asked. His face had some wrinkles, highlighting his old age. Yet, he wasn't weak. If anything, he was the strongest here. He was the Patriarch of a Major Clan in this city. 

Xu Shan stood tall, undeterred by the old man's intimidating presence. He maintained a calm demeanor. 

"I wish I didn't have to come here myself," Xu Shan answered. "It's been such a hassle after all. Unfortunately, you people made things unnecessarily hard for me."
