Eternal Villain: I can enslave Reality!

"Third Prince's future?" Xinren's eyes lit up as she realized what Xu Shan was implying!

Currently, Qin Ye didn't know about the fact that the Third Prince had a different soul! He didn't know about the Book of Desires either! That meant he came here purely for the Third Prince... The master of the Celestial Spirit of Devouring!

"Even if I hadn't come to this world, the Third Prince would've awakened his Celestial Spirit. However, once he did, he would've been like a bloodthirsty dragon, craving for Strength!"

"I'm not sure what kind of a future he would've had, but it was certainly scary enough that Qin Ye decided to intervene before the Third Prince had a chance to get stronger and become a threat."

"Even destiny was helpless once a person was strong enough to shatter their own destiny after all! A person like that wouldn't have allowed someone like the Third Prince to become stronger."

Xu Shan hadn't even reached his palace yet, but he had already guessed what Qin Ye was like. "He's truly a fool..."

"Why do you think he's a fool?" Xinren's melodious voice came in response. Even if she believed every single word of Xu Shan's assumption to be accurate, that didn't make it appear as if Qin Ye was a fool.

"Of course. If not, fool, what shall I call him? If I were in his place, I would've killed the target as soon as possible, not taking any risks. Unfortunately, he isn't going to do that."

"And how can you be sure that he won't try to kill you tonight?" Xinren inquired. However, she wasn't asking because she thought Xu Shan was wrong. If anything, she had a feeling that he was very reliable. She was just genuinely curious.

"Eyes... As he said, a person's eyes hide many secrets. Unfortunately, his eyes failed to hide his arrogance."

"No matter how much he tried to hide it with his attitude, but his eyes can't lie. He looked at me less like a threat that needed to be killed immediately and more like his entertainment. That's what irritated me even more. I have a feeling that I know what he's planning."

"He won't kill me tonight, but he's probably already set a trap and is just waiting now."

"He saw the future, and he knows the approximate time when I become a threat to him. It's clear he won't let me live up to that point."

As Xu Shan thought up to this point, his expression slightly darkened. "If I'm not wrong, to make things entertaining, he will use another trick... Something that I wanted to avoid!"

"And what trick is that?" Xinren straightened her back, moving closer to Xu Shan, not even realizing how close she was to him.

"Celestial Palace." Xu Shan sighed, feeling a headache coming. "He knows the Third Prince kidnapped the Saintess. He'll use the Celestial Palace against me while simply watching the show. If I'm not wrong, he probably already informed the Celestial Palace secretly."

"Of course, it's only my assumption. However, I have a feeling that I'm not far from the truth."

"I thought I had time to deal with the matters of the Celestial Palace, but this guy's appearance messed up everything! Even if I had killed the Saintess, it wouldn't have helped much. He already knows the place where the Third Prince buried the Saintess last time."

"Even if I had changed the location, he could just use the Book of Destiny to find that location and pin the blame on me, hitting two birds with one stone. He would've pushed me at death's door while also weakening my backing... The Eternal Dynasty."

"If he's not too stupid, he came to the Eternal Dynasty precisely for this reason. Instead of assassinating me, he wants to watch me die at others' hands, right before his eyes."

"You know what's even more irritating?" He rubbed the back of his neck as if he was trying to relieve a stiff neck. It was surprising that he could still keep a calm face.

"What?"

"He'll use this opportunity to act righteous!" Xu Shan let out, rolling his eyes.  "He'll act surprised to discover that Saintess is killed after finding her body. And then, he would've sided with the Celestial Palace in the name of justice."

"Throw Sky Dynasty in the mix as well, and the Eternal Dynasty would've been attacked from three sides. Meanwhile, my naive father still thinks Qin Ye came here for cooperation with the Eternal Dynasty."

Even though he wanted it all to be just him overthinking, the risks were too significant if it wasn't. He could only move further, believing that he was right. He didn't want to doubt himself now and then regret it later! In this world, his life was more important than anything!

The carriage finally reached his palace and stopped at the entrance. This time, Xu Shan didn't wait for others to open the carriage for him.

He opened the door himself and stepped out, silently entering his palace. "Well, since he wants to play a game of chess with me, I hope he won't blame me for responding in kind."

His fists were tightly clenched. Unfortunately, the guards didn't notice. Only Xinren followed behind him, noticing his fists. It was clear that he was feeling somewhat hesitant. She didn't know what he wanted to do, but for him to hesitate so much, it couldn't be simple.

Xu Shan pushed the door of his new bedroom open and entered with Xinren, closing the door behind him.

He didn't even spend a single moment to rest after a long journey. He simply took off his robe and all the unnecessary accessories that he had to wear as a Prince, tossing them all on the bed before he walked to a nearby chair, pulling a table closer.

"Wait, are you...?" Xinren was slightly surprised, realizing what he was about to do.

Xu Shan didn't reply. "That guy wants to play with me? I'll give him something to play with..."

A pitch-black book appeared in his hands, accompanied by an intimidating aura.

Xu Shan opened the book, flipping the pages and going past the page on which his last wish was written.

Firmly holding the pen between his fingers and his thumb, he started writing…
