The Villain Marries Supporting Characters, And The Heroines Regret It! - Chapter 127.1:

Chapter 127: A Powerful Strike! There Are Three Thousand Guardians of the Shrine, and Someone Named Su Will Carry Out the Villain to the End:

“Young Master!”

As Su Changyu stepped on Yuan Qing, Old Lu’s expression changed dramatically. He never expected Yuan Qing to be defeated so quickly!

Was this really the strength of a native?

Regardless of whether Su Changyu had reached the Heavenly Emperor Realm or even the quasi-Divine Realm, the difference in resources between the Upper Realm and the Lower Realm should have made victory impossible for him. Yet, what had just happened was undeniable.

Old Lu was about to intervene when he caught Gu Xue’s indifferent gaze on the Azure Divine Dragon. 

The look was clear: she would ignore Yuan Qing’s actions, but she wouldn’t stand by if Old Lu decided to act.

“Your rules aren’t sufficient, so let’s follow mine.” Su Changyu said calmly in the streets of the ancient city.

Pfft!

Yuan Qing spat blood, gritting his teeth as he said, “You…”

“What’s wrong? Are you so beaten that you can’t even shout?” Su Changyu kicked him aside. “You’re useless and dare to block my path?”

“Damn it!” Yuan Qing climbed to his feet, anger radiating from him as his golden hair billowed. His eyes glowed red like the sun as he once again summoned the Great Sun behind him.

With the roar of the laws of the Great Dao, golden light erupted from Yuan Qing, and divine patterns swirled around him, signaling the activation of his Divine Body.

Every genius possesses a unique physique, and in this world, physical forms are categorized from bottom to top: Mortal Physique, Spirit Body, Sacred Body, and Divine Mountain Body. 

Above the Immortal Physique exist many creatures derived from the chaotic world, their powers even surpassing those of the Great Dao. 

Even the top forces, like the Cloud Heaven Divine Palace, struggle to understand this realm; only a few ancient texts reference it, collectively known as the “Chaotic Body.”

In the Upper Realm, Divine Bodies were already quite rare. Among billions of beings, only a handful possess such extraordinary physiques. The Cloud Heaven Divine Palace has only a few dozen members with exceptional physical forms, most of which are ordinary Spirit Ascension Bodies.

Yet, when a Divine Body unleashes its full potential, its battle power could become exponentially greater. This could allow top geniuses to challenge opponents at higher levels. However, this was only possible if their opponents’ physical constitutions and techniques were inferior.

Su Changyu’s Great Dao Bone had already reached the level of an Immortal Physique, and it had evolved four times, now advancing toward the Chaos Physique. Combined with the extraordinary Absorbing Origin Devouring Heaven Scripture, he surpassed others.

“Die!!!” Yuan Qing shouted, swinging his fist, which radiated divine light and shook the space with a deafening rumble, forcing passersby to flee in fear.

“Regret in death.” Su Changyu replied coldly.

The Palm of the Great Heaven!

BOOM!

The blazing sun shattered into countless fragments as a terrifying power bore down on Yuan Qing.

Sizzle!

Yuan Qing’s Divine Body cracked, and golden blood spurted from him, sparkling as it fell. His pupils dilated in terror as a blinding light approached him, bringing the breath of death closer.

“Young Master, please spare him!” Old Lu finally sprang into action. 

As Yuan Qing’s servant, it was his duty to protect him. If Yuan Qing only sustained injuries, that would be manageable. But if he died, Old Lu’s fate would be sealed alongside him!

Gu Xue frowned, surprised at Su Changyu’s decisiveness. She thought inflicting serious injuries would suffice to stop him, but now he was intent on killing. It was too late to intervene because Old Lu had already made his move against Su Changyu, leaving her with no choice but to protect him. 

Though Gu Xue was slightly stronger than Old Lu and could easily intercept him, doing so would mean losing her chance to stop Su Changyu.

BOOM!

Su Changyu’s palm slammed into Yuan Qing’s forehead.

A blinding explosion of brilliance erupted, shattering Yuan Qing’s body. 

“Ah!” he screamed in agony, a beam of light shooting from his shattered form.

Swish!

His soul darted away, shielded by a green light—the Law Weapon that protected souls—flying far into the distance at a speed too fast for anyone below the Divine Realm to catch.

Old Lu sighed in relief. Luckily, he had a life-saving imperial weapon bestowed by his family.

While Yuan Qing’s Divine Body had exploded, his soul remained intact, granting him a chance to start anew. At least he wouldn’t accompany Yuan Qing to his grave.

But suddenly, Su Changyu vanished from sight.

This time, it wasn’t a body technique, but a spatial shift. In an instant, he caught up to Yuan Qing’s soul.

“Space law?!” The crowd gasped.

Terror filled Yuan Qing’s eyes as Su Changyu’s giant hand, formed from true essence, gripped his soul tightly. No matter how hard he struggled, he couldn’t escape. The Law Weapon could only protect his soul and facilitate escape; it was powerless against Su Changyu.

“Please show mercy, Young Palace Master!” Old Lu pleaded. “My young master is young and foolish. He offended you, but I beg you to spare his life since we are both disciples of the Divine Palace.”

He never expected Su Changyu to possess spatial law! That was one of the most extraordinary among the three thousand great Dao. Not even Gu Xue had anticipated it. 

A rare hint of astonishment flickered in her calm and beautiful eyes. “Indeed, he is a disciple chosen by the Palace Master.”

To achieve such accomplishments in a world with limited resources was remarkable. Compared to the six major true disciples, Su Changyu’s heavenly talent stands out, surpassing at least five of them.

“In that case, the ancient masters in the Divine Palace, who only recognize the palace lord, will also side with the young palace lord.”

Seeing Su Changyu display his spatial abilities, Gu Xue felt a sense of relief. She wasn’t intimidated by Su Changyu’s impressive presence; instead, she worried that he might prove to be ordinary and unremarkable. 

In a place like the Heavenly Cloud Divine Palace, talent was highly valued. Without significant skill, even the title of young palace lord would attract little attention.

Someone like Su Changyu, already appointed as the young palace master, would naturally draw the interest of others. 

With no strong foundation, if he continued to appear weak and passive, he would only invite others to take advantage of him. It was better for him to shine brightly, attracting the attention of the neutral factions within the Divine Palace. This was also part of Su Changyu’s plan.

Conform?

Endure?

Survive slowly?

No, he have the script for the villain, not the protagonist!

“Young and foolish? This guy is probably much older than me, Surname Su.” He thought.

Looking at Yuan Qing with indifference, as if he were an ant, Su Changyu said, “I have always been kind. Now, I’ll give you a chance. Tell me why I should spare you.”

Yuan Qing struggled in vain, panic washing over him. “I serve His Highness Xuanyuan! If you kill me, he will definitely seek revenge! Even if you are the young palace master, offending His Highness Xuanyuan will lead to your doom!”

Elder Lu’s expression darkened. “Young master, why are you still saying such things? If His Highness Xuanyuan had any power, you wouldn’t have been targeted by the Divine Body just now.”

“Are you finished?” I gave you a chance, but you proved useless.” Su Changyu shook his head.

BOOM!

With a firm grip of his giant hand, divine light exploded, instantly erasing Yuan Qing’s soul!

Silence enveloped the ancient city.

Expressions of shock spread among the onlookers.

“Yuan Qing… is dead?”

“He actually dared to kill him?”

“Did the young palace master just use spatial manipulation?”

“Hiss! Another monstrous talent has emerged. No wonder he was appointed as the young palace master by the Heavenly Cloud Divine Palace.”

“But even if he killed Yuan Qing, the Yuan family might not seek revenge, but that Young Master Xuanyuan won’t let this go easily.”

“The Heavenly Cloud Divine Palace is heading for chaos.”

Yuan Qing was a genius with a Divine Body, among the top tier of the younger generation in the Heavenly Cloud Divine Palace. But he was killed by Su Changyu with a single strike. 

The appearance of spatial manipulation only reinforced their belief that Su Changyu was now comparable to the true disciples. However, true disciples not only possess great power but also come from formidable backgrounds. It remains uncertain how far this young palace lord, Su Changyu, can go.

“Young master!!!” Old Li shouted.

His aura erupted, surging toward Su Changyu with overwhelming force. 

With Yuan Qing dead, if he didn’t act, the Yuan family would surely seek his life! Killing Su Changyu might offer him a chance to survive; failing to act would certainly lead to his demise.

But with Gu Xue present, Old Li had no chance to approach Su Changyu.

“Suppress!”

A terrifying coldness radiated from Old Li’s body, accompanied by a thunderous explosion. He fell like a cannonball, surrounded by countless ice shards.

Though he possessed Emperor Realm strength, Gu Xue was also at the Emperor Realm—specifically, at its peak. The gap between their strengths was more significant than it appeared.

“Young palace master, let’s retreat for now.”

After defeating Old Li, Gu Xue quickly returned to Su Changyu’s side, eager to take him back to the Divine Palace.

“We’re leaving already?”

Su Changyu reached out his hand to take Yuan Qing’s Law Weapon in his hand.

Gu Xue’s expression tightened slightly. “Young Palace Master, you might not understand, but although the Yuan family is merely a follower of Prince Xuanyuan, their strength is considerable. Severely injuring Yuan Qing would have been manageable, but killing him…”

The Yuan family was powerful and has disciples with true inheritance backing them. If they were provoked, anything could happen. After all, Su Changyu was new here and had not yet met the Palace Master. Just the title of Young Palace Master might not be enough to intimidate those in high positions.

Gu Xue felt grateful that Yuan Qing had made the first move.

Without that, openly killing a fellow disciple within the sect’s territory, especially given such a special identity, would have certainly drawn the ire of those with ulterior motives.

“In any case, let’s meet the Palace Master first.” Gu Xue suggested softly.

Su Changyu nodded. “Alright, let’s see the Palace Master first.”

Outside the distant attic, a member of the enforcement team asked anxiously, “Sir, should we stop them? That Young Palace Master has killed the young master of the Yuan family. If we ignore this, Prince Xuanyuan will surely demand an explanation…”

“No need to intervene,” the man in divine armor replied, rubbing his forehead. “Let them handle their own matters. Even if Prince Xuanyuan questions us, he wouldn’t dare act recklessly. Just look at how the Young Palace Master killed someone with a single move. He is not someone to provoke easily.”

No background?

Just arrived?

These issues were beyond his control.

All he knew was that this person now possessed the title of Young Palace Master. If the Palace Master regarded him as a treasure, then neither the Five Great True Inheritances nor the Six Great True Inheritances would dare to openly challenge Su Changyu.

“It’s good they’re leaving. Let’s move quickly.” The man in divine armor said.

But as soon as he finished speaking, a roar echoed through time and space, crashing into the ancient city of Mingshan.

“Who dares to kill my Yuan family’s young master?”

This roar carried immense authority, causing the laws of the Great Dao to tremble and explode. Dark clouds loomed over the city, and thunder rumbled in fury. Without seeing the source, a gigantic hand descended from the clouds, aiming directly at Su Changyu!

“Not good!”

The man in divine armor’s face turned pale. 

To save or not to save?

If he intervened, he risked offending the Yuan family and their true disciples. If he didn’t intervene, he would allow others to kill the young palace master, and he will surely face punishment!

Just then, a mighty Azure Dragon roared into the sky, unleashing a torrent of gray dragon breath that collided with the giant hand.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

The clash of these two immense forces shattered countless runes and caused the void to tremble. The entire ancient city felt as if it were experiencing an earthquake. If not for the protective barrier, it would have been reduced to dust!

“The Azure Dragon?!”

The voice from the void was filled with surprise.

Immediately afterward, streams of vibrant rainbows shot through the sky and halted in mid-air.

The leader, radiating a deep aura, had golden light shimmering between his brows and eyes. He stood there like the sun, exuding tremendous power.

His gaze was filled with fury as he scanned the surroundings, finally locking onto Su Changyu.

“It was you who killed my son?!”

Su Changyu replied calmly, “So what if it was?”

“If so, you will pay with your life!”

“Outrageous!” Gu Xue’s expression turned cold. “Yuan Xiao, this is our young palace master from the Heavenly Cloud Divine Palace. How dare your Yuan family treat him so lightly?”

Young palace master?!

Yuan Xiao’s demeanor hardened as he retorted angrily, “Protector Gu, even if he is the young palace master, does that give him the right to kill my son at will? Despite my Yuan family being weak, he should still respect the rules of the Heavenly Cloud Divine Palace!”

Although Yuan Xiao was stronger than Gu Xue, he was cautious of her status.

The Heavenly Cloud Divine Palace had three thousand protectors, each at least at the Emperor Sovereign Realm. These protectors operated under the palace lord’s jurisdiction and were independent of the various divine peaks.

Thus, while Gu Xue’s status was not particularly high, few dared to act against her within the palace.

Harming her would be seen as a provocation against the Protector Hall and a challenge to the authority of the palace lord.

Su Changyu spoke calmly, “Old man, you lack insight, but others don’t. That fool provoked me first, and I killed him in self-defense. I haven’t even held your Yuan family accountable for their actions, yet you dare question me?”

“You!—”

Yuan Xiao’s eyes widened in rage.

Despite his contempt for Su Changyu, the young palace master, he knew better than to show open disrespect.

After all, Su Changyu was a disciple of the palace master.

For people like Yuan Xiao, the best approach was to wait for Su Changyu’s downfall and strike when he appeared weak.

It would have been ideal to act after other true disciples confirmed Su Changyu’s decline.

Unfortunately, Yuan Qing, filled with arrogance, insisted on taking the lead. Even though Yuan Qing made many mistakes, he was still his son. When a son dies, how could a father not seek revenge?

However, Su Changyu sneered, “The Yuan family ambushed me, seemingly plotting against the Heavenly Cloud Divine Palace. Elder Yun, how much longer do you plan to wait?”

In the distance, the man in divine armor froze.

He hadn’t expected Su Changyu to call him out at this moment.

Before entering Ming Mountain Ancient City, Gu Xue had already explained the situation to him.

The ancient city, located at the foot of the Heavenly Cloud Divine Palace, was strictly regulated. The strength of the enforcers stationed there was impressive.

Among them, the man in divine armor was one of the twelve captains of the enforcers.

How could such a significant incident occur without his knowledge?

“Damn it!”

Yun Yuan cursed inwardly but still flew over with his subordinates. “Yun Yuan greets the junior palace master,” he said with a bow.

Su Changyu responded indifferently, “Yun Yuan, the Yuan family ambushed the junior palace master of the Heavenly Cloud Divine Palace and disrespected the dignity of my divine palace. What do you have to say?”

“You! Stop slandering!” Yuan Xiao shouted furiously. “My son was clearly just sparring with you, but you turned around and killed him. Today, I will avenge him!”

“Spar?” Su Changyu scoffed. “What is his identity compared to mine? Does any random person on the street have the right to challenge me, the young palace master? Old man, you are merely trying to cover up your own guilt!”

As he spoke, he flipped his hand and produced the token given to him by Mu Qingshuang.

“Elder Yun, if you don’t act now, when will you? Do you really want me to report to the master before anything can be done?”

Yun Yuan’s face changed drastically. He ordered, “Capture all members of the Yuan family!”
