I Truly Am The Villian Chapter 876 - 875 I Know Your Grandfather

Xu Zii had thought he’d escaped and let his guard down.

Just then, a formidable suppression descended, sending chills down his spine involuntarily.

It felt as if sothing had targeted him.

On the spot, he was suppressed and immobilized.

Soon after, a long knife, ford by condensed blade intent and spanning a hundred ters, evolved.

It slashed down from the firmant with overwhelming force.

Yu Chengkong didn’t even have the chance to dodge and was slain on the spot by the long knife.

"Lu Ze, you have dood ."

With a powerless roar, that part of the sky was annihilated on the spot.

Everyone watching was dumbstruck.

It took a while for Lu Ze to co to his senses.

"You killed him," he said, looking incredulously at Xu Zii.

"Is that not okay?" Xu Zii asked with a smile that was not quite a smile.

"No, I don’t an that," Lu Ze averted his gaze from Xu Zii’s eyes nervously.

He said unnaturally, "I opposed the Feather Clan for Yu Yan’s sake.

You didn’t need to do this, especially with a bright future ahead of you, to throw it away here."

"How do you know I’ll throw it away here?" Xu Zii laughed.

"I thought you couldn’t bear to see Yu Chengkong die."

"How could I," Lu Ze hurriedly denied.

"If you’re not afraid, then forget I said anything."

"Let’s head back to the clan first," Shi Yuyan said calmly as she withdrew her right hand.

"We should leave before the Feather Clan’s reinforcents arrive."

The group nodded and, carrying Wang Yang’s ice-bound body, they headed up the Stone Holy Mountain.

The surface of Stone Holy Mountain was enveloped in a purple barrier.

The barrier covered a vast area, enclosing the entire Stone Holy Mountain within it.

The Stone Race was on high alert, ready for battle at any mont.

There was a narrow mountain path leading to the summit.

Shi Jian knocked forcefully on the barrier a few tis and imdiately alerted the guards.

A sowhat burly youth with dark skin erged from the mountain.

"Who dares trespass on Stone Race territory?"

"Stone, it’s ," Shi Jian quickly shouted.

The burly youth was stunned, looked carefully for a mont, and then excitedly asked, "Cousin Shi Jian, Saintess, what brings you back together?"

"How can we stand by when our family is in trouble?" Shi Jian replied.

The young man nad Stone hurriedly opened the barrier and welcod them in.

"Where’s the Clan Leader?" Shi Yuyan asked.

"The Clan Leader has been in the Council Hall these past few days, discussing strategies with the other Clan Elders," Stone sighed.

"Now, our Stone Race’s territory has been completely lost. All that remains is around Stone Holy Mountain, and who knows how long we can hold out."

"I understand," Shi Jian patted the other’s shoulder.

He said, "You’ve worked hard guarding the Sect Gate."

"It’s nothing. You all go and see the Clan Leader first," Stone said quickly.

...…

The Stone Race’s Council Hall was located midway up the mountain.

As everyone followed the mountain path, Shi Jian looked at Xu Zii and whispered, "Can you handle it?"

"You still don’t trust ," Xu Zii shook his head and chuckled.

"I thought you said you’d help our Stone Race, and I thought we only had the Feather Clan as our enemy.

Now, with the Ancient Dragon Dynasty intervening, it’s probably stronger than we imagined," Shi Jian said.

"It’s not your fault, but don’t worry, whether or not you can help our Stone Race,

I will talk to the Clan Leader and lend you the Supre Hamr if possible."

"Let’s go," Xu Zii waved it off.

The Stone Holy Mountain is a picturesque landscape of splendid rivers and mountains.

The peaks are constructed from massive boulders, forming a sight of strange and rugged beauty.

The path up the mountain is not very steep; in fact, it’s rather flat.

Along the way, one can encounter many mbers of the Stone Race, most of whom greet Shi Yuyan.

When the group reached halfway up the mountain, they saw at the end of their view.

A series of bizarre rock-built halls rose and fell along the mountainside.

Diamonds, Fluorescent Stones, Wisdom Pattern Stones... various stones were visible everywhere.

These grand halls appeared simple and majestic, sowhat reminiscent of ancient European architecture.

Around the halls, many paintings were carved.

They all tell the history of the Stone Race.

Shi Jian and Shi Yuyan arranged a pavilion for the group to rest in.

They let everyone rest there first.

As for the two of them, they had to enter the grand hall to see the Clan Leader first.

...

Watching the departing figures of Shi Yuyan and her companion, Lu Ze finally withdrew his gaze.

Then, he turned to Xu Zii with a smile, "Brother Xu, with such strength, you must be quite famous at Heavenly Dao Academy.

Why haven’t I heard of you before?"

"I prefer to keep a low profile," Xu Zii waved his hand.

"From which place does Brother Xu hail?" Lu Ze’s gaze twinkled as he continued to inquire.

"Just a wanderer, though I belong to a Sect Gate, I rarely return," Xu Zii replied with a smile.

"I’m used to being on my own."

"If Brother Xu is interested and has the ti, you could also visit my Immortal Mortal Sect, where I will fulfill the host’s courtesy," Lu Ze said with a smile.

"The Immortal Mortal Sect eh, I’m not very familiar with it, but I do know soone from there," Xu Zii pondered for a mont.

"Oh?" Hearing Xu Zii’s words, Lu Ze showed a slight surprise.

He quickly asked, "May I know the na of the person Brother Xu knows? It’s possible I know them too."

"He’s an old man nad Yun Fan," Xu Zii said with a smile.

Back when he had descended upon Heaven Expanse Holy Mountain, he had initially planned to destroy it.

Later on, the Heaven Expanse Sage called upon Elder Yunfan from the Immortal Mortal Sect to plead on his behalf.

This event was long past, but Xu Zii rembered it vividly because he had extorted from them the Heaven Expanse Astrolabe.

Upon hearing Xu Zii’s words, Lu Ze’s expression subtly changed.

He forced a smile and said, "Brother Xu must be joking."

"I’m serious," Xu Zii responded.

"Young Master Xu, please be mindful of your words and actions," Tan Qingqing, who was beside him, stood up.

She spoke indifferently, "Elder Yunfan is Brother Lu’s grandfather and also one of the Core Elders of our Immortal Mortal Sect.

You say you know him?"

"What a coincidence?" Xu Zii was sowhat surprised.

Then he smiled, "When you have ti, go ask your grandfather if he recognizes .

If he doesn’t rember, just ntion the four words, ’Heaven Expanse Holy Mountain,’ and he will know."

Back then, he had annihilated an Extinct Heaven Sect with two emperors, and when he descended with the might of extinguishing the sect, he doubted that Elder Yunfan would forget him.

Lu Ze felt that Xu Zii’s words sohow bordered on the absurd.

His grandfather had always stayed within the Sect Gate, hardly ever leaving.

How could the two of them know each other?

But Xu Zii spoke calmly, without a trace of teasing or jest.

As the situation beca tense, Shi Jian and Shi Yuyan ca over from a distance.

Accompanied by them were seven or eight middle-aged n in brown robes with a hefty presence, and several elders.

Lu Ze and his companions quickly stood up.

The leader of this group was a middle-aged man at the forefront.

He had short, neat hair.
