I Truly Am The Villian Chapter 2339 - 2338: Battle Against the Queen Lord, Kunlun Mirror and Heavenly Gaze Staff

To put it even more simply, if they don't join Yao Pond, then there won't be any other decent power around them left to compare with.

This is the monopolistic position of Yao Pond.

Even if Wang Ya talks like this, no one can do anything about it.

Everyone present looked at one another.

Originally they had wanted to rely on strength in numbers to put some pressure on Wang Ya.

Xu Zimei shook his head to himself, smiling wryly.

These people just couldn't see the situation for what it was.

So yes, in any trade or profession, monopoly is an extremely uncontrollable thing.

...…

Following behind Wang Ya, the group headed together toward Yao Pond's Kunlun mountain range.

Compared to before, the Kunlun mountain range now was even more saturated with Immortal Qi, ethereal and otherworldly.

Mount Kunlun was a blessed land to begin with, absorbing the qi of heaven and earth, famous as the place where the Essence of Sun and Moon was the most concentrated.

Although ever since the last great war, the Kunlun mountain range had suffered heavy losses, over all this time it had been replenished.

Now the Kunlun mountain range surpassed its former self.

...…

"Brother Xu, what brings you here this time?" Wang Ya asked.

"Is there anything I can help you with?"

"It's nothing major, I'm here to temper my own Great Dao," Xu Zimei said.

"Strictly speaking, I want to have a battle with the Queen of the West."

As of now, the Queen of the West could be called the most powerful existence in the Cangxuan Realm.

Perhaps at the absolute peak of the Monster Race, the Queen of the West might not have counted as the strongest existence.

But now that Yao Pond reigned supreme, in the entire Cangxuan Realm, as for experts that could really be brought out, there was probably only the Queen of the West alone.

Hearing that Xu Zimei wanted to battle the Queen of the West in order to temper his Great Dao,

Wang Ya quickly asked, "It's just a battle, not that kind of fight-to-the-death life-and-death duel, right?"

What Wang Ya was most worried about was that both of them might get hurt.

After all, whether it was the Queen of the West or Xu Zimei, seeing either of them injured was a situation Wang Ya didn't want.

"It's just a spar. Getting injured is inevitable, but there won't be any danger to life."

Xu Zimei replied calmly.

"Then I'll take you to find the Queen of the West," Wang Ya said.

After entering Yao Pond, Zhong Shanshen and his sister truly had their horizons broadened.

This place was perhaps just like the Immortal Realm they had imagined.

Immortal Cranes cried long and clear, the branches of Immortal Trees twined upward, soaring toward the Firmament.

There were also all sorts of Fairies stepping into the air, long robes fluttering.

The Spiritual Energy here was dense; just taking a few breaths filled one with a sense of ease and delight.

Wang Ya had people properly arrange quarters for the Zhong Shanshen siblings.

Since the two were brought by Xu Zimei, Wang Ya naturally gave them some preferential treatment.

But if they wanted that special treatment to continue, it would depend on how they performed later on.

As for Wang Ya, she took Xu Zimei alone to meet the Queen of the West.

The place where the Queen of the West resided was called the Pan Peach Garden.

Within this Pan Peach Garden, there was only a single ancient Pan Peach tree.

Yet this tree was extremely massive, branches and leaves luxuriant; its trunk propped up the sky, enveloping the entire Pan Peach Garden within its canopy.

Around the ancient Pan Peach tree, the aura of life was exuberant, light red Pan Peaches hanging upon it.

Every single Pan Peach emitted a fruity fragrance.

They looked as though they were about to ripen.

At the entrance of the Pan Peach Garden, designated maids had already come to receive Xu Zimei.

In fact, from the moment Xu Zimei had just entered the Kunlun mountain range, entered Yao Pond, the Queen of the West was already aware of his arrival.

"Brother Xu, then I'll just see you off here," Wang Ya said.

She was not allowed to casually enter the Pan Peach Garden.

Especially without the Summoning of the Queen of the West.

Xu Zimei nodded slightly, and the two maids in front led the way.

Passing through the tree-lined avenues of the Pan Peach Garden, and walking along several tranquil winding paths, they arrived at the place where the ancient Pan Peach tree stood.

This was a stretch of Bamboo Grove.

Countless bamboo stalks grew densely, forming a ring encircling the roots and trunk of the ancient Pan Peach tree.

At the center of the Bamboo Grove,

the Queen of the West and the current Saintess, Jiang Chenyu, were standing there.

The Queen of the West wore a golden long robe, upon which were carved the Kunlun mountain range and a myriad beasts.

Yet with so many elements on a single piece of clothing, there was no conflict or disharmony at all.

Instead, they blended perfectly into one.

The Queen of the West wore a tall crown, and in her hand she held a golden Magic Wand.

Beside the Queen of the West, the aura of Saintess Jiang Chenyu was even more unfathomable.

She wore a snow-white long robe, long black hair cascading down, features pure and clear, her facial structure finely contoured.

"Taoist Friend Xu, is it not a joy to have friends come from afar?"

The Queen of the West said with a smile.

"I still haven't properly thanked you for what happened last time."

Last time, when Yao Pond was in peril, Xu Zimei's great battle with the Monster Race was, to put it bluntly, a kind of transaction as well.

Xu Zimei helped Yao Pond, but he also obtained the inheritance of the Ancient God, Goddess Xuanming.

It was just that in that battle, later on Xu Zimei had activated the power left to him by the previous generation Demon Lord.

Which drew the attention of the Heavenly Dao.

In the end he feigned death and slipped away, without properly saying farewell to everyone.

Xu Zimei waved his hand slightly.

Slowly drawing the Tyrant Shadow from his back, he said, "I've come this time to prove my Great Dao. I hope Taoist Friend, Queen of the West, will see me through."

"My blade and I both need a battle."

"I'm just afraid my strength is not enough to help Taoist Friend Xu undergo a metamorphosis," the Queen of the West replied.

She had some self-awareness regarding her own strength.

The Queen of the West was indeed strong, but it still depended on whom she was being compared to.

Xu Zimei said, "With many hands the fire burns high; I never planned to get fat off one bite."

"Battle after battle, each one is an accumulation."

"Since Taoist Friend Xu has made the request, how could I possibly refuse?" the Queen of the West said.

"Then let's have a fight first, and talk about old times afterward."

Xu Zimei nodded slightly.

From the very start of his journey in the Nine Domains, it had been to temper his Great Dao step by step.

So in his eyes, apart from the Great Dao, nothing else really counted as important.

"Master," Jiang Chenyu said on the side, somewhat worried.

The Queen of the West only smiled and shook her head.

She said, "Chenyu, the two greatest treasures of our Yao Pond should also be shown to you so you can see their power."

"After all, you are the one being cultivated as the next Queen of the West, and there's never been a suitable opportunity. Just right, this time you can watch carefully."

"Every generation of Queen of the West in our Yao Pond passes down two treasures."

"One is the Kunlun Mirror."

The Queen of the West gave a great wave of her hand.

The Firmament above the Kunlun mountain range at this moment turned into a mirror.

The daylight vanished, and the Kunlun Mirror took the place of the Firmament.

"This Kunlun Mirror is a treasure birthed by the Kunlun mountain range itself, acquired by the first Queen of the West.

After that it was passed down from generation to generation, and within it is contained a power that shakes Heaven and makes Ghost Gods weep."

"And the other treasure is the Heavenly Gaze Staff."

The Queen of the West raised the Magic Wand in her hand.

The wand seemed to bear the power of the sun and the moon; the two ends were respectively engraved with the images of Sun and Moon.

And in the very center was written the character for Peeping Heaven.

The moment these two treasures appeared, it was clear they were anything but Mortal.
