I Really Am A Villain Chapter 110 - Blood Demon Hidden Realm
đ˘ New Novel Launch!
This time, Xu Zimo had been in seclusion for over a month. Of course, the unexpected mutation of the Primordial Chaos Bead had caught him off guard.
But the result was nothing short of a qualitative leap. Xu Zimo could feel power coursing through his entire body.
Most importantly, after reaching the Desolate Meridian Realm, he now had the ability to walk through the air.
As he stepped out of his room, the world outside seemed to have been washed clean, everything looked unusually clear and vibrant.
The spiritual herbs on either side of the South Goose Mountain courtyard were more lush and full of life than ever, as if they had been bathed in divine energy.
This reminded Xu Zimo of the spiritforce surge that erupted during the moment he formed his True Fate.
âSenior Brother,â Little Gui quickly came up to greet him.
âAnything happen while I was in seclusion?â Xu Zimo nodded and asked.
âThe Vice-Lord came by. He said to look for him once you came out,â Little Gui replied. âAlso, I heard from some of the disciples that the sect's Guardian Formation was activated a while ago.â
âThe Guardian Formation?â Xu Zimo frowned slightly, he already had a guess.
It mustâve been his father. When the spiritforce around South Goose Mountain became scarce during his breakthrough, his father had activated the Guardian Formation to gather massive amounts of energy for him.
No wonder the spiritual herbs had flourished, they had been cleansed and nourished by the surge of energy.
âI see,â Xu Zimo nodded.
âOh, and Senior Brother Lin came by a few times too, but since you were in seclusion, he left each time,â Little Gui added.
âLike a tiger, huhâŚâ Xu Zimo nodded. He figured Lin Ruhu probably had some answers now.
âŚ
After leaving South Goose Mountain, Xu Zimo headed straight for Green Mountain, where his father resided.
Xu Qingshan was, as always, dressed in green robes. Compared to the last time Xu Zimo saw him, there was now a sharper edge to his presence.
âWhatâs up, Dad!â Xu Zimo smiled.
âItâs good to see you havenât slacked in your cultivation. Honestly, Iâm relieved,â Xu Qingshan said with a smile.
âIâll keep working hard. You were the one who activated the formation, werenât you?â Xu Zimo asked.
Xu Qingshan nodded. âI donât know what kind of fortune youâve come across, and I wonât ask. After all, youâve grown up. Youâre entitled to your own secrets. Just remember this: Iâll always be your strongest support. Whatever happens, come to me.â
âI know that. I always have,â Xu Zimo said, nodding firmly. He never thought of himself as sentimental.
But people are strange creatures. Itâs not always grand, heroic gestures that move you to tears.
Sometimes, itâs the small, quiet moments of care that reveal someoneâs sincerity.His nose tingled. In his past life, he always thought his father didnât care about him. That the sect mattered more to him than his own son.
But after being thrown into Nether Dragon Ravine, his father had rallied the entire Sacred Ground to avenge him. Only then did he understand.
There are people who promise you the world but vanish when you need them.
Then there are those who stay silent, but always stand by you without question.
That kind of support is deeper than words. Itâs a belief.
âŚ
âCanât you two talk about something other than cultivation when you're together?â
His mother, Wenren Yun, grumbled from the side.
âWhat else is there to talk about? At his age, cultivation is everything,â Xu Qingshan replied.
âSweetie, youâre almost sixteen now, right? Met any girls you like? Your motherâs been waiting to hold a grandchild!â Wenren Yun glared at Xu Qingshan and turned to ask Xu Zimo.
â...Mom, Iâm still young. Whatâs the rush?â Xu Zimo quickly waved his hands.
âLook at Fourth Grand Elderâs grandson, heâs already got dozens of maidservants around him. And you? I even arranged two maidservants for you, Chunxiao and Xiaqiu, and you havenât even touched them,â she said, clearly annoyed.
Wenren Yun didnât get to see Xu Zimo often, so she couldnât help but go on and on.
âYour father⌠all his life, thereâs never been anything more important than the martial path. Heâs obsessed with reaching the God Meridian Realm. Then when the Sacred Lord left, he handed the burden of being the Sacred Lord to him. And now youâre just like him when he was young, all you care about is cultivation. Iâve never cared about cultivation. All I want is for both of you to be safe. One day, when you have a family and a child, Iâd like to help raise them. Otherwise, in a few hundred years, when my life span ends, I wonât even get the chance.â
âWhat nonsense are you saying? As long as Iâm alive, I wonât let you leave me, no matter the cost!â Xu Qingshan said urgently.
âYou say that, but you never even spare me a glance. Your mindâs always full of cultivation and sect affairs,â Wenren Yun said, her tone softening with sorrow.
Watching the two of them go all lovey-dovey again, Xu Zimo quickly made his exit.
âAlright, you two lovebirds, if thereâs nothing else, Iâm heading out.â
âIf thereâs a girl you like, remember to tell your mother. Iâll help you propose marriage,â Wenren Yun called after him.
Hearing that, Xu Zimo picked up his pace.
âSoon, the sectâs Blood Demon Hidden Realm will open. I saved you a spot. Get ready,â Xu Qingshanâs voice called from behind.
Xu Zimo paused. âThe Blood Demon Hidden RealmâŚâ
This was a special hidden realm within the True Martial Sacred Ground, one known for its strange and dangerous creatures.
The Blood Demons.
Though heâd never entered it before, Xu Zimo had heard much about it.
The place was dangerous, yes, but also filled with opportunity.
It was said that killing Blood Demons yielded Blood Demon Crystals, treasures that could strengthen oneâs blood and vitality.
And blood vitality wasnât just about raw power, it also impacted endurance and resilience.
In battles between cultivators of equal strength, blood vitality could often be the deciding factor.
Thinking about the Blood Demon Hidden Realm, Xu Zimo smiled. In the River of Fate, he had glimpsed something⌠different.
Originally, he had planned to head straight to the Pure Moon God Domain.
But before that, perhaps⌠there was something worth retrieving inside the Blood Demon Hidden Realm.
As he left Green Mountain and returned to South Goose Mountain, Xu Zimo ran into Lin Ruhu.
