Do You Want Me To Be The Villain Like That?? Open Your Eyes And See

Chapter 54: Meeting once again

In a land filled with immortal spiritual power, a city that stood tall as if it were the center of the heavens. Inside the luxurious room of a grand mansion, a young man with immense authority sat behind a desk overflowing with paperwork. His brow furrowed, and he massaged his temples, exhausted by the heavy responsibilities he bore.

Suddenly, a shadow moved from the corner of the room. A man dressed in black robes bowed low before speaking in a respectful tone, "My lord... we have found the one who is likely your missing son."

The noble man showed no sign of interest. Cold indifference and slight surprise flickered in his eyes as he sat motionless, asking in a detached voice, "Where is he?"

The man in black replied calmly, "The Immortal Flame Continent, my lord. We found him at an auction held by the Golden Chamber of Commerce, and there are reports that he may be in trouble with the princess of the Immortal Phoenix Empire."

The shadow handed a scroll of information to the nobleman, who opened it and began reading with growing interest. A faint smile gradually formed on his face.

"At last, a solution to this problem has appeared," he muttered to himself. "Bring him to me."

The man in black bowed slightly in respect before continuing, "My lord... it may not be so simple. The young master has not expressed any desire to return... moreover..." He hesitated briefly, as if unsure whether to continue.

"He has killed some of our men."

The room fell silent instantly. The nobleman paused for a moment, then let out a long sigh. He set the scroll back on the table and spoke in a cold, resolute voice, "In that case, send him resources. Ask sincerely if he wishes to return. If not, use force."

The words were sharp and decisive, as if cutting the thread that linked father and son. The nobleman turned away from the image of the son he had not seen for years. The smile that had once appeared vanished, replaced by a heavy silence.

The man in black bowed deeply. "Understood, my lord." Then he disappeared into the darkness, leaving the room filled with emptiness.

In the dead of night, eight shadows moved swiftly and silently, leaving no trace. They were elite warriors sent by the Jiang family to carry out the mission of finding Jiang Yun. The group had split up to increase their chances of success. However, not long after, one of them was suddenly drawn into a strange area, as if pulled into a powerful formation.

Looking around, he found himself on a battlefield covered in snow and ice. Immortals were scattered across the ground, their lifeless bodies lying in pools of dried blood. Even some heavenly immortals were frozen and torn apart. The scene was eerie, and the silence was overwhelming.

The man in black crouched down, picking up a piece of ice attached to one of the corpses. Upon closer inspection, he realized it wasn't just ordinary ice—it was a piece of a body! Suddenly, a young woman stumbled out of the snow, her body covered in wounds, trembling and gasping for breath. She carried an unconscious man on her back as she desperately tried to flee.

Seeing this, the man in black quickly hid and observed the woman closely. He was shocked to recognize her.

"The Ninth Princess... of the Immortal Phoenix Empire?"

Just then, he glanced at the person pursuing her: a cold figure who walked at a leisurely pace, like a predator in no rush. When he saw the face of the man, the man in black nearly stopped breathing.

"That man... is him. But why can't I sense his cultivation?"

Meanwhile, Jiang Yun was drawing closer. Feng Ling, with what little strength she had left, tried to escape, but it was futile. Both of her legs had been struck precisely by a mysterious force. The sound of bones breaking echoed as her body collapsed in pain, unable to move or flee any longer.

Jiang Yun approached with an icy calmness, like a god of death walking among the fallen. He grabbed Feng Ling's head tightly.

"You brought your soldiers to die in vain once again, and still, you refuse to use your brain as always."

Feng Ling stared at him with eyes filled with fear and pain. She tried to speak, but all that came out was a faint whisper, while the unconscious man she carried fell to the ground.

The man in black, hiding in the distance, witnessed everything. Though he had orders to bring Jiang Yun back to the Jiang family, after seeing the young man's power and ruthlessness, he realized that any attempt to confront him would only result in death.

Just as Jiang Yun was about to place his hand on Feng Ling's head to search her soul and steal all the knowledge she had, a woman in a black mask suddenly appeared, slashing down on Jiang Yun's arm with a sword.

Jiang Yun paused, immediately letting go of Feng Ling. The masked woman quickly lifted her sister, trying to escape. However, before she could get far, her body froze, unable to move at all. It felt as though she was bound by some kind of mysterious power. Jiang Yun watched her closely. Though she wore black clothing and a mask that concealed her face, her beauty and graceful figure could not be hidden.

Footsteps echoed behind her. "Impressive," Jiang Yun's cold, confident voice rang out as he approached. The masked woman struggled, but it was in vain. He reached out slowly, removing the mask that concealed her face. Realizing there was no escape, the woman triggered her hidden power, causing her body to erupt in a surge of energy, breaking free from Jiang Yun's hold and narrowly escaping. However, her mask had fallen off, revealing a face of stunning beauty.

The man in black, watching from afar, was equally astonished.

"The First Princess of the Immortal Phoenix Empire! The second-ranked genius on the Immortal Rankings..."

Feng Yi stood a short distance away, locking eyes with Jiang Yun, her gaze calm. She spoke in a soft but firm voice.

"Will you release my sister?"

Jiang Yun smiled faintly, as if everything was just a game to him.

"If I can have you in exchange, I might consider it."

Feng Yi narrowed her eyes slightly, ignoring his taunts.

"Enough nonsense. Speak your demands clearly."

Jiang Yun's smile lingered, but his eyes were cold. "I don't want much... just you."

Feng Yi didn't reply, instead unleashing a fierce burst of flame from her body. She had no interest in talking further. Intense flames erupted from her figure as Jiang Yun countered with freezing ice. The two powerful forces clashed violently in mid-air, the surrounding area consumed by their wild energy.

Jiang Yun chuckled as he stepped back.

"You've tried ambushing me again."

Feng Yi gritted her teeth, trying to contain her emotions as she glared at him.

"You attacked first! I'm only protecting my sister!"

Jiang Yun smirked slightly, while the air around them grew both frigid and searing. The tension in the atmosphere thickened as though a true battle was about to begin.

Suddenly, footsteps sounded again. The man in black from the Jiang family stepped in, interrupting the intense standoff.

"Young master, we are here to assist you."

No sooner had the man's voice reached their ears than his life was snuffed out, his body swiftly cut down by some unseen force.
