An Unexpected Turn: Villain Becomes Dad-Chapter 208

Chapter 208

Hearing this, Chu Xi glared at him and snapped, “Shut up already! If it weren’t for your greed, we wouldn’t be in this predicament!”

At this moment, she was filled with frustration toward her younger brother.

Senior Brother Yang had been concerned about her overexertion of soul power and had even given her soul energy from the Nine-Colored Poria.

Meanwhile, Xiao Dong only thought about using her to gain treasures.

Didn’t he just hear that the opponent was a terrifying monster close to the Void Refinement Stage? Compared to Senior Brother Yang, Xiao Dong was truly selfish and childish—he even made her feel a little disgusted.

***

“Sister, you—” Chu Xi’s disgusted gaze and tone made Xiao Dong freeze in place. He couldn’t believe that his sister would look at him and speak to him in such a way.

He was her brother, her only family in this world.

“Damn it! It’s all that bastard Yang Chen stirring up trouble! Chu Xi, you’re no better! Decades of sibling affection, and it’s not even worth that scoundrel’s sweet words! Despicable! One day, I’ll make you regret this!”

Xiao Dong cursed furiously in his heart.

[Ding! The host’s concern for Chu Xi has caused her to develop feelings of frustration and disappointment toward Xiao Dong. The sibling bond has fractured, and 500 points of Providence Luck from the Son of Destiny, Xiao Dong. The host has gained 500 VPs!]

Hmm?

Yang Chen raised an eyebrow in surprise.

A rift between siblings?

It seemed Junior Sister Chu Xi had grown frustrated and disillusioned with her younger brother.

Good, good.

This way, he wouldn’t have to keep pretending to be a good brother-in-law anymore. And when Xiao Dong eventually died, Chu Xi wouldn’t grieve too much.

“Youngster, die for me!” Blackheart Sage roared as a surge of demonic energy burst from his body, and he struck at Yang Chen with his palm. The demonic energy coalesced into countless chains, each writhing with the wails of tortured souls.

Yang Chen felt the surrounding space solidify.

A peak Soul Transformation realm cultivator could already manipulate spatial forces, freezing space or creating sealing techniques like spatial locks.

Although such methods weren’t particularly refined, they were enough to deal a fatal blow to lower-level cultivators.

If an early-stage Soul Transformation realm cultivator faced this move, the frozen space would leave them with no escape, forcing them into a desperate defense.

In most cases, this would result in either death or severe injury. This was why Blackheart Sage dared to attack Yang Chen. In his eyes, a mid-stage Soul Transformation realm cultivator could be suppressed in a short time.

However, he underestimated Yang Chen.

A sword light slashed out. The sword light, blazing like golden flames, carried an incisive intent that could cut through everything.

The massive dark prison formed by the demonic energy chains were instantly obliterated by the sword intent. The overwhelming sword intent scattered in all directions, shaking everyone present.

“What terrifying sword intent!”

“My spirit sword is resonating with it!”

“I didn’t expect this mid-stage Soul Transformation realm cultivator from Heavenly Dao Holy Land to be such a powerful sword cultivator!”

“This sword intent … it must have reached the seventh tier of Sword Dao!”

“As expected of Heavenly Dao Holy Land. With such profound foundations, it’s no wonder they have such exceptional talents!”

By now, a crowd of cultivators had gathered around.

Among them were not only Soul Transformation level cultivators but even a few at the late-stage and peak Soul Transformation stages.

Yet all of them were stunned by the overwhelming sword intent released by Yang Chen.

Chu Xi, supporting Xiao Dong to the side, looked at Yang Chen, who radiated sword intent like an unrivaled Sword Immortal.

Her beautiful eyes sparkled with admiration and affection.

“Damn it! That bastard Yang Chen really knows how to show off! If I had a hundred years, I wouldn’t be any worse than him!” Xiao Dong cursed bitterly in his heart.

In the sky, Yang Chen and Blackheart Sage clashed in a flurry of exchanges.

Demonic energy and sword energy crisscrossed the valley, leveling and collapsing over a dozen nearby mountain peaks.

Through their brief encounter, Yang Chen gained a clearer understanding of his current strength. Without using the Pure Yang Sword, his combat power wasn’t far off from Blackheart Sage’s.

Moreover, Yang Chen hadn’t even used his Dragon Body Technique yet.

If Blackheart Sage dared to approach him, Yang Chen could instantly destroy his physical body.

“Damn it, youngster! Die for me!” Blackheart Sage had initially planned to suppress this reckless brat in a matter of moments. But unexpectedly, they were evenly matched.

If news of this got out, how could Blackheart Sage maintain his reputation in the Central Continent?

Failing to defeat a mid-stage Soul Transformation realm cultivator while being at the peak of the stage—he’d be a laughingstock upon returning to the Nether Sect!

Blackheart Sage waved his hand, summoning a black demonic banner. Demonic energy surged, and the sky was instantly shrouded in dark clouds.

From all directions came the mournful cries of countless tortured souls.

“The Yin Demon Banner! A ninth-grade demonic artifact of the Nether Sect! This Yin Demon Banner belonged to Blackheart Sage’s master, the Grand Elder of the Nether Sect. It once killed over ten Dao Integration Stage righteous cultivators and tens of thousands of Nascent Soul and Golden Core cultivators. Truly terrifying!

“To think a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator forced Blackheart Sage to bring out a ninth-grade demonic artifact … I can hardly believe it!”

“Who is this Heavenly Dao Holy Land disciple? What’s his name? Which elder’s direct disciple is he? Why haven’t I heard of him before?”
