I Am The Fated Villain
Chapter 69: Fourth Princess of the Supreme Eternal Dynasty

"Change, you're cruel ..."

“I never thought that you would be the one to kill me! You are the person I love the most, but now, you are also the one I hate the most.”.

Yue Mingkong looked at his empty surroundings and subconsciously closed his eyes. A few tears were seen in the corner of his eyes, but soon, those tears disappeared and he opened his indifferent and cold eyes once again. Her voice was calm as she spoke, and the turmoil in her heart also subsided — she had already gotten used to the heart-wrenching pain that had been attacking her for the past half a year.

Yue Mingkong did not understand why he ended up three thousand years in the past. Now, half a year had passed since he returned in time, but the sight of the day he married Gu Changge was still fresh in his mind.

The world trembled at their unity, the singing of the Great Dao descended upon them from Heaven, golden lotuses bloomed everywhere, and crystal clear springs gushed out from the earth. Dressed in a red wedding dress, and wearing a phoenix crown and imperial robe, she stood bashfully beside the most handsome and peerless man in the world.

On the eve of their wedding, they had crossed hands and drank wine to show the world that they were now one.

He thought that all his waiting and sacrifices were not in vain, and that he would finally accept his love! He had helped her build the strongest Eternal Dynasty in the world, had a falling out with her father for her, and even helped her clear her name from suspicions claiming that she was the heir of the Demon Art …

Sweetheart! After waiting three thousand years for her bridal night with him, what she received was a look of ridicule and indifference from him. After which, boundless darkness spread around him, and a heart-wrenching pain gripped him. She finally realizes that the person she loves more than anything in the world has never felt anything for her. Everything he does is for himself.

In the end, he killed him in cold blood! He only tricked her into freeing himself from suspicions about her as the heir to the Demon Art. After she squeezed out all her uses, she threw them away like scrap tissue.

He, on the other hand, had trusted him from the bottom of his heart, and not once did he think that he might just be the heir to the Demon Art.

Yue Mingkong wanted to call himself in the past 'backward', and could not understand how he could allow himself to be deceived by Gu Changge's lies. People like him have no heart. One could not even estimate the number of people like him who had been deceived without them noticing that they were dancing in the palm of his hand.

“Should I call you Gu Changge, or should I call you Gu Wuxin (heartless)? You are truly a heartless monster who has no love for others! I've worked hard for you for three thousand years, yet you haven't given me the slightest bit of affection in return. Since Heaven has given me another chance, I will not let history repeat itself.”.

Yue Mingkong's expression turned as cold as a glacier. She was already an adult, and no longer the naive and foolish girl from her past life, who was obsessed with the near-perfect man whose heart was wrapped around her fingers.

As the fourth princess of the Supreme Immortal Dynasty, she was the one who disappointed her father the most in the past. But now, in just half a year, he had stepped on all of his competitors in the royal family, and even removed his eldest brother from his position as Crown Prince.

His threat meant that it easily destroyed every record made in the Supreme Eternal Dynasty since its existence. Even his father — who always looked at him with disappointment — inevitably showered him with praise.

All this thanks to his retreat into the past. He knew a lot due to the fact that he had lived for three thousand years, so he could take a flawless step and dominate everyone easily.

“In the end, I am nothing more than a tool in your eyes. To you, I am just a toy that you use to gain a clean reputation.”.

“Gu Changge, since you never care about me, then don't blame me for taking everything from you in this life! I will make you experience all my pain..”.

"Darling! You are a heartless demon, so how can you understand my pain and everything I've been through? It's unfortunate, or I can make you fall in love with me, and then kill you like you killed me!”

“It looks like I have no choice but to destroy your life in such a way that you have no choice but to remain by my side! After all, rather than dying, living like that would be the worst punishment for a person like you.he.”.

The imperial robe of Yue Mingkong fluttered, and he stood with his hands behind his back. Her pretty face showed a deep calm as she was immersed in contemplation.

At the same time, he turned his face eastward — that was where the Ancient Immortal Gu Family lived.

He knew that Gu Changge had returned from the Lower Realm, and he had also obtained what he had brought down. He also knew that soon, his father would take him to the Ancient Eternal Gu Family to discuss the matter of his marriage and Gu Changge.

The marriage between the Supreme Immortal Dynasty and the Ancient Immortal Gu Family was a very important matter, and it attracted the attention of many giants and big shots. After all, it involved the grand fourth daughter of the Supreme Immortal Dynasty, and the only son of the Patriarch of the Ancient Immortal Gu Family.

The most important thing was that his father wanted to take advantage of the power of the Ancient Eternal Gu Family to annex the other Eternal Dynasties. Unfortunately, everyone in the Upper Realm knew about the way the Ancient Eternal Gu Family was, and it was not a hidden fact that no one could ever make use of it. Although the Supreme Immortal Dynasty was rumored to be the first Immortal Dynasty of the Upper Realm, it would not be an exception to that fact.

In his last life, he had never understood such complicated things. Although she was talented from birth, and was also the fourth princess of the Supreme Immortal Dynasty, she did not possess the intelligence and means of the royal family like her brothers, and this fact brought great disappointment to her father.

He was nothing more than mediocre among his friends from the royal family.

As for why the Ancient Immortal Gu Family approved of her engagement to Gu Changge? Yue Mingkong did not understand this in his last life, but now he understood. It was because his father promised to provide innumerable benefits to the Ancient Immortal Gu Family! He was merely a tool that would be married off to the Young Master of the Ancient Eternal Gu Family.

She was a little girl when she first met Gu Changge. At that moment, he was cultivating on top of a piece of spiritual bluestone. Brilliant light filled his surroundings, Dao runes turned into flowers and bloomed, and divine brilliance dazzled everyone who looked at him.

Her heavenly appearance astonished her, and then she was told that she would be her future husband. Just that one look was enough for him to give his heart away, and he sent himself to destroy it in his previous life.

“Luckily, it is still not too late to correct my mistake! Soon, we will meet again, Gu Changge.”.

Yue Mingkong returned from his journey down the memory lane, and slowly closed his eyes. He now held Gu Changge's greatest secret in his hands. After it was revealed that he was the heir of the Eternal Demon Eater Art, the entire world would rush to hunt him to death — it was not an exaggeration.

Sweetheart! He knew that he could not reveal this fact without solid evidence, or that no one would believe his words. Gu Changge this time took each step carefully, and rarely used the Eternal-Eating Demon Art. Even so, he would make sure to remove every trace of his demonic actions.

Worse yet? There was a part of his heart that did not want to expose him like that; he did not want to see a day where the whole world would oppose him…

Yue Mingkong could only sigh.

"No! How could I still love him? It's just that I don't want to defeat him by exposing his identity as the heir to the Demon Art! I want to drop it fair – I want to take everything from him honestly..”.

Immediately, Yue Mingkong shook his head and muttered to himself.

……

"We pay our respects to Young Master!"

“Welcome back, Young Master!”

The ancient Temple of Reception traveled from the edge of the Upper Realm, and then traveled through many massive teleportation formations. After a long journey, they finally appeared at the regional gate of the Eternal Demon Gu Family. All the disciples standing outside the gates of the Gu Family were very respectful towards Gu Changge, and it was as if they were specifically standing there to greet him.

Gu Changge responded to them with a nod.

In front of him, a myriad of immortal mountains and islands floated in the air, releasing a divine light that rushed towards the sky. Spiritual fog floated everywhere, and the entire region of the Ancient Eternal Gu Family was enveloped by a terrifying formation that shone with bright flares that resembled the brilliance of the sun and moon.

Right now, it was only releasing a fraction of its original strength. If it was activated with all its glory, even the mighty God King would not be able to pass through it.

"Is this the foundation of the Ancient Eternal Gu Family?"

Su Qingge and Lin Qiuhan felt their heads buzzing. Although the long journey here had shocked and left them numb with all sorts of scenery, the beautiful scenery in front of them still troubled their hearts, and they could not calm down. With this level of territory and grandeur, they could no longer be referred to as a mere 'Family' land — they were a big world!

[VILFIC: Ancient Immortal Gu Land!]

"Let's go."

Gu Changge said. At the same time he was wondering how he should show the entire world to them? Especially Lin Qiuhan, who he was going to send to the Alchemy Inheritance. Although no one had the guts to bully them with their relationship with him, there were always some who broke the norm. After all, both of them were from the Lower Realm, so the people from the Upper Realm would obviously choose them.

"Old Ming, you must arrange their dwelling."

Gu Changge instructed the old man standing beside him. The family had strict rules, and divided the family treasures into Inner and Outer regions. Currently, they were in the Outer Region. As for the Inner Region? Only direct descendants of the Ancient Immortal Gu Family could enter and live there.

Su Qingge and Lin Qiuhan could not go to the Inner Region until they were given an identity within the Family.

After which, Gu Changge turned into a brilliant stream of light, and headed straight for the Inner Region. Ever since he returned to the Gu Family, his top priority was to meet his father. After all, not everything he did was planned by him — his father was also very involved.

“Young Master has gone to Inner Region, so we have to deal with your problem first. This old slave will first teach you the two rules of the Gu Family. Make sure you don't do something that will humiliate the Young Master when you are next to him in the future.

"By the way, don't [be a madman and] show surprise in everything and anything, even if you find people from the Ancient Eternal Gu Family."

As soon as Gu Changge left, the Old Ming took them and advised them while traveling through various mountains and floating islands. Su Qingge was much better than Lin Qiuhan in terms of getting used to their new surroundings, while Lin Qiuhan continued to nod his head like a chick pecking at rice, "I understand, Ancestor!"

As soon as Old Ming heard his words, his expression changed and showed deep fear. In haste, he corrected it, “Do not call me Ancestor or anything like that in the future — be it in the Ancient Eternal Gu Family or outside. It's enough if you keep this fact in your heart. ”

After all, Lin Qiuan seemed to be greatly appreciated by his Young Master, and there was a chance that their relationship would develop further in the future. What does that have to do with Lin Qiuhan as his Ancestor? The Gu family was very strict with their hierarchy, and if this fact came out, he would probably end up on the gallows.

Although Lin Qiuhan did not understand these nuances, he would naturally follow the orders of his Ancestor.

At the same time, he felt overwhelmed, and his eyes reached a point where they might explode with how wide he opened them, as he watched the grandeur of the divine structure of the Ancient Eternal Gu Family. In his heart, he could only sigh, 'Young Master Gu's family is terrifying!'

He had never imagined he would see such incredible islands and eternal mountains in his life, so much so that he could not help his shock no matter how hard he tried. Eternal fog floated everywhere, and thundering waterfalls flowed down from the sky. Various ferocious beasts roamed the mountains and islands, and their terrifying auras surged into the sky like waves.

The Spiritual Qi around him was so dense that he thought it would melt at any moment.

His reaction did not shock Old Ming. Back when he first saw this scene thousands of years ago, he was just as shocked. This was the first time he had seen the tip of the iceberg known as the Ancient Immortal Gu Family.

Comparing the Ancient Families and the Lower Realm Inheritance with them was like comparing a village made of mud with an Immortal Island that floated high above Heaven.

Many thoughts passed through Old Ming's heart, and he could not help but say, “This is just an Outer Region, which is nothing compared to the Inner Region. As for the God-Son Island where the Young Master lived? This was a true Eternal Land that came straight from a fairy tale! I am not even qualified to approach him. Of course you…"

Speaking of which, Old Ming suddenly felt envious of the two.

At the same time, Gu Changge arrived at the Inner Region after using the Family's exclusive teleportation array connecting the Outer and Inner Region, and their entire region.

He was standing in front of a magnificent and majestic hall. Suddenly, the door in front of him opened, and a warm voice that seemed to belong to a middle-aged man sounded from within.

"Changge, are you back?"
