Eternal Villain: I can enslave Reality!

Chapter 199 199: Long Awakening





Xu Shan felt a terrifying pain in his right eye. A crimson trickle ran down his left eye, resembling tears of blood.

He clenched his teeth, enduring the excruciating agony. This was the price he had to pay for harnessing the power of the Celestial Lotus.

Hours turned into days as Xu Shan remained in deep meditation, the Celestial Lotus continuing to pour its energy into him.

Outside the mansion, the Clans grew increasingly impatient, unaware of the intense transformation happening within.

Many Clan Elders waited outside the mansion, trying to greet the new guest. Unfortunately, they weren't allowed in. Let alone allowed in, but no one even came out to greet them. Even though they weren't as strong as the Divine Empress, they were still part of prominent clans.

This level of ignorance towards them made some of them furious. If it wasn't for the Generals to guard the mansion, some of them would've barged inside already, with the intention of slapping Xu Shan to death.

Even the Generals were confused why Xu Shan didn't want to meet them. They had conveyed the message to the people inside, only to get a response that Xu Shan had refused to meet them.

The Generals didn't know that Xu Shan hadn't rejected the meeting. Instead, it was Yunxi who rejected the meeting. The reason she used the name of Xu Shan with the Generals was because she didn't want them to be suspicious.

Even Yunxi couldn't get in contact with Xu Shan. If the Generals found out, it was certain that they were going to get suspicious and barge inside the mansion to check.

Some clans felt so insulated by the fact that they were made to wait so long, that they decided to simply turn around and return to their Clans. There was no need for them to lower their dignity just for a toy of the Queen.

There were still many clans who held on. The Clan Elders waited at the entrance of the mansion. It didn't matter if it was a hot day or a cold night. They didn't leave. They were assigned this duty by their clan elders.

They couldn't leave this post without meeting Xu Shan. They had to show their sincerity to Xu Shan. The allure of controlling such a powerful individual was tempting, and they couldn't afford to lose this opportunity to the other clans.

Back inside the mansion, Xu Shan's body began to emit a radiant glow. His spiritual power surged to new heights, and he could feel a second Celestial Spirit awakening within him.

The process was very painful. Through the days, he had never once had a moment to test. At times, he even felt like he was going to faint from the pain, barely holding on thanks to his strong will.

His right eye was burning, as if someone had stabbed a blazing hot rod in his left eye. Yet amidst the excruciating pain, Xu Shan's determination only grew stronger.

The more painful it was, the stronger his second bloodline could be. If it was a weaker Celestial Spirit, it would've woken up by now. But even after so many days of torment, its awakening still wasn't complete, which made him look forward to his Celestial Spirit.

With every wave of agony, he reminded himself of the importance of this transformation. He couldn't afford to back down now.

As each day went by, Xu Shan's aura grew stronger. Beads of sweat covered his exhausted body, and a faint, dried trail of blood could be seen on the right side of his face.

"Just what is he doing? It's been so long yet we haven't seen him. Could something have happened to him? Should we check?"

The Former Emperor asked, looking toward the empty hallway. It's been a long time yet he hadn't heard from Xu Shan. Moreover the people outside were getting impatient.

Even the Generals felt like they were getting tired of dealing with the Clans and could barge at any time to ask Xu Shan to meet the Clans and be done with it.

The Former Emperor didn't know how long he could hold those people back. If it wasn't for Xu Shan's threat, he would've long gone in to check.

"Could it be that he already left the Mansion, escaping from the back?" the maid subconsciously spoke, not controlling her voice.

Even though she didn't mean it in a malicious way, but the Former Emperor frowned at her words. He had a good impression of Xu Shan. The man could've abandoned them a long time ago, but he didn't.

In fact, if he wanted to leave, the Empress would've happily sent him away. There was no way he would've escaped in such a cowardly manner.

"I'll overlook this for now, but keep a leash on your words from now on," he warned the maid of his daughter. Although he was the weakest person in this mansion, he still had the Emperor's dignity.

"Father is right. Didn't talk ill of our savior." Yunxi agreed with her father on this. She didn't believe Xu Shan would escape, but her reason was different.

The entire mansion was under surveillance from outside. There was no way Xu Shan could've escaped without the Generals finding out.

The City also had only one portal leaving out of it. He would've long been discovered if he had tried to leave. That meant he was still inside the mansion. The only question was, what was he doing?

As the hours ticked by, the Former Emperor's concerns manifested into reality. Abruptly, the General barged into the mansion, thrusting the door open with conviction, intent on having a conversation with Xu Shan.

"Where is he?" he asked in an arrogant tone. He didn't care if the person before him was the father of the Divine Empress. Since his daughter herself didn't pay any attention to him, he also didn't pay any respect.

He didn't even wait for the Emperor's answer and entered the long corridor to find Xu Shan himself.
