Villain: Capture The Loli Sword Spirit At The Beginning

"You? Redemption?"

A harsh laughter came from beneath the black robe.

No matter what, he couldn't connect the leader of the Tai Xuan God Clan with the redemption of their Tai Xuan Demon Clan.

"Have you ever thought about why you haven't been exterminated?"

Gu Lingxiao's face remained indifferent.

Tai Xuan Yun's heart sank.

This question had been pondered by them several epochs ago.

In front of the Tai Xuan God Clan, their Tai Xuan Demon Clan, hiding and evading, was undoubtedly a small egg.

An egg cannot break a stone, it will only crack its own head and bleed.

They relied on a special artifact left behind by the Tai Xuan Demon Ancestor to barely survive through one epoch after another. Occasionally, they would go out and target some young geniuses of the Tai Xuan God Clan, disrupting some of their good deeds.

Sometimes successful, sometimes failed, but the strongest elders of the Tai Xuan God Clan never made a move.

So why did they never make a move?

"It's nothing more than wanting to use us as stepping stones for their younger generation."

"Is that so?"

Gu Lingxiao's counter-question made Tai Xuan Yun fall into silence.

The Tai Xuan Universe was not an isolated island, but had countless connections with other universes.

There were countless ways to train the younger generation.

The dangers and growth opportunities outside far exceeded those within the Tai Xuan Universe.

"So why do you think?"

"Think for yourself, what else does your Demon Clan have that is worth showing off?"

"You want to make a move against the Demon Ancestor!"

Tai Xuan Yun suddenly looked up, staring at Gu Lingxiao in shock.

Gu Lingxiao sneered:

"Didn't I already say it? Only you guys take that Demon Ancestor seriously."

"Then..."

Tai Xuan Yun couldn't make sense of it.

"My God Clan has always been inclusive and does not restrict talent. If you are willing to belong to the God Clan, we will not hold any grudges."

"Can you make that decision?"

"Think about it yourself, or I will come find you again."

After speaking, Gu Lingxiao's figure disappeared.

The sudden departure left Tai Xuan Yun puzzled once again.

Just let him go like this?

The face hidden beneath the black robe became extremely solemn.

He had no idea what Gu Lingxiao's purpose was for this trip.

Did he think he could persuade him with just words?

Tai Xuan Yun had lived through countless epochs, and his will was not something that could be easily shaken by a few words.

Was Gu Lingxiao really that naive?

Could such a naive person be chosen as the current clan leader?

More and more doubts filled Tai Xuan Yun's heart.

After hesitating for a moment, Tai Xuan Yun still left with his heavily injured body.

In any case, he should return to the clan and heal his injuries first.

He flew continuously, spending several months to deliberately detour to several unrelated places before reversing through the Ascension Path of the Tai Xuan Universe, arriving on an inconspicuous continent in the mortal realm.

Even among the countless mortal realms, this continent was very inconspicuous.

Countless hidden formations were arranged on this continent. Even if a Dao Realm expert passed by, they would only think it was a very ordinary place.

Flying in the air and overlooking the countless cultivators on the ground, Tai Xuan Yun soon descended into a secluded valley.

The environment here is very quiet, and it is also rarely visited on this continent.

However, when he landed, the scene in front of him was completely different from what others saw.

It was a very prosperous city, where the practitioners of the Tai Xuan Demon Clan lived.

Contrary to the stereotypical impression held by many, although the Tai Xuan Demon Clan was called a demon clan, they looked no different from ordinary practitioners.

They lived peacefully in this city, appearing serene and untroubled by the world.

When they noticed the descent of Tai Xuan Yun, a group of people excitedly gathered around.

"Elder Yun, are you injured?"

"Yes. I encountered some trouble on the way and got injured."

"Who could possibly hurt you?"

Someone looked at Tai Xuan Yun in disbelief.

Under normal circumstances, the Dao Realm was already the pinnacle of power in this world.

Even if they were surrounded by multiple people, they shouldn't have been injured so severely.

"Well... I encountered the acting clan leader of the Demon Clan."

"You mean Gu Lingxiao?"

"That's right."

"He alone?"

"...Yes."

Although it was somewhat embarrassing to be defeated by a young junior, it was a fact that Tai Xuan Yun had no intention of hiding.

It was better to let them know how formidable Gu Lingxiao was early on, so they could be mentally prepared if they encountered him in the future.

"How could he possibly defeat you? You have been in the Dao Realm for so long, even if he was born in the Dao Realm, he definitely wouldn't be as strong as you!"

"Perhaps this is the natural order of things, with the younger generation surpassing our imagination in terms of talent. Maybe he has a glimmer of hope of becoming a Dao Ancestor."

Tai Xuan Yun smiled bitterly.

Even though he stood on the opposite side, he had to admit Gu Lingxiao's astonishing talent.

This kind of talent was far beyond his reach.

"The hope of becoming a Dao Ancestor..."

"That's a bit exaggerated."

"Alright, let's not crowd around. Make way for Elder Yun, we can talk while walking."

They suddenly realized that Tai Xuan Yun was still in a heavily injured state, so they quickly made way.

"By the way, Elder Yun, what about that young genius you mentioned before? How does he compare to Gu Lingxiao?"

"You mean Chu Mu... His talent is also extremely astonishing. He has already reached the Holy Realm, but there are some things that puzzle me."

A troubled expression appeared on Tai Xuan Yun's face.

"What puzzles you?" someone immediately asked.

"His bloodline power is clearly very strong, so he should have awakened some of his memories by now. But... he has no memories at all."

"Could he be pretending?"

"...That's not very likely, no matter how you look at it."

Tai Xuan Yun still couldn't figure out what Chu Mu was thinking.

"What about his talent? Can it rival Gu Lingxiao?"

"Difficult! With his talent, it's only a matter of time before he breaks through to the Dao Realm. But to say that he can rival Gu Lingxiao, I'm afraid that's still too difficult."

Even after several months had passed, Tai Xuan Yun's heart still trembled at the thought of Gu Lingxiao's formidable combat power.

There was simply no reason for someone to be so strong!

Upon hearing this, disappointment appeared on the faces of the crowd.

They were hoping for a genius with outstanding talent to appear, someone who could lead them back to their dominant position in the Tai Xuan Universe.

But it seemed that Chu Mu didn't meet this requirement.

"Don't be discouraged, everyone. With this divine object left behind by Lord Shenzu, even if the Demon Clan has great abilities, we have a way to wait for the arrival of that person. And this time, I also heard some news while I was out."

Seeing this, Tai Xuan Yun prepared to reveal what he had learned from Gu Lingxiao:

"The reincarnation of Lord Shenzu may have already appeared in this world!"
