Eternal Villain: I can enslave Reality!

Chapter 57 57: A Misunderstanding Beyond



Xu Shan sat on the ground, finally finishing the third and the last shadow guard. Killing the first shadow guard was the hardest. The second was also slightly hard. However, killing the third and the last one was comparatively easier for him, as if he was the weakest of the three!

After dealing with the third guard, he sat on the ground and placed another healing herb in his mouth. He had finally dealt with the quest! Even he couldn't believe it that he had killed three Peak Celestials in one night!

Even though most of it was thanks to his sneak attacks, and unfair battle tactics, but it was still an achievement that felt surreal.

Still, he knew that if the three Shadow Guards fought with him properly, there was no way he would've won! And that was the case when these guards weren't even as strong as Ye Han. He could only guess how strong Ye Han was, in comparison.

According to his expectations, even if he used a sneak attack on Ye Han, he would've still failed. He needed more strength!

He reached out his hand, to absorb the strength of the last shadow guard in his Celestial Core. However, just as he was about to touch the man, his hand came to a half as he felt a presence above him!

The presence was subtle, yet it felt vaguely familiar.

Frowning, Xu Shan raised his head up, only to notice Ye Han in the sky, looking in his direction.

Xu Shan was taken aback, not expecting Ye Han there. He didn't know how much Ye Han had seen!

Was he there since the beginning, watching everything only to make his presence known now? Or did he really just arrive now? If it was the former, it was dangerous, since it meant that Ye Han now knew about his Celestial Spirit. However, if it was the latter, then there was still some chance.

If Ye Han just arrived now, that meant he only saw Xu Shan kill a Shadow Guard with a sneak attack. At best, he could guess that he was a Celestial Warrior who kept this a secret from others throughout the years. However, that was better than having him know about the Celestial Spirit.

Xu Shan knew what the fear of the unknown could cause a person to behave like! He knew that in Ye Han's eyes, he was a person who didn't care about anyone else. Once he found out that he could steal others' strength, even he was going to become his enemy, worried that his next target was going to be him!

Perhaps Ye Han could assassinate him and make it seem as if it was done by the Shadow Guards.

Xu Shan retracted his hand, standing up. Since he had just gone through a battle, his disguise was already over. The Star Mark was clearly visible in his left eye, noticed by Ye Han.

Ye Han's expressions were unnatural. He used to think that the Third Prince was a mere mortal, who only relied on his family to bully the weak! However, what he saw completely turned his assumption upside down!

The young man managed to kill three Sky Celestials in such a short time? Even from the knife wounds, it was clear that he used some sneaky methods, but it didn't change the fact that he succeeded!

According to Ye Han, none of the Princes were this capable! Amongst the younger generation, there were very few people who could achieve something like this!

Ye Han's face was covered in a frown, as he wondered why Xu Shan hid it from everyone, if he was really that talented? Also, why was his Star Mark in his left eye, unlike on his hands.

He didn't think that Xu Shan could hide this secret so effectively on his own. That made him think that it was because of the Emperor!

Ye Han thought that it was the Emperor who helped his son hide his talents, worried about him being targeted! When he thought about this all being the Emperor's plan, the corner of his lips crept up.

He had always wondered why the Eternal Emperor favored the Third Prince so much. However, now that he saw what the Young Prince was capable of, he finally understood.

He didn't know that even the Emperor didn't know about Xu Shan being a Celestial Warrior yet. It was all his misconception to give the credit to the Emperor. However, this also saved Xu Shan some trouble.

He slowly came down, landing before Xu Shan. Even though he didn't say it outright, but his gaze was different now.

Previously, he used to be indifferent towards Xu Shan, as if he wouldn't even get close to him if it wasn't for the Emperor's orders. However, now his expressions appeared to be full of intrigue and praise.

"No wonder His Majesty dotes on you so much. So you were a Celestial Warrior." He finally spoke.

Previously, he used to be quite frustrated. For him, the Eternal Emperor was a god who granted him a new life! And the Eternal Dynasty was his home! He only wanted to see what was good for the Eternal Dynasty.

Unfortunately, he was quite unimpressed with every Prince. He always used to think that the next generation was very ordinary. That often made him worry about the future of the Eternal Dynasty.

In his eyes, there wasn't a worthy successor who could help lead the Eternal Dynasty in a world filled with geniuses like Qin Ye and the son of Master of Celestial Palace.

Now that he saw something interesting with his own eyes, the worries deep within his heart went down a light.

"Don't worry. I understand His Majesty told you to hide this secret." He went down on one knee, finally showing some respect like this to a Prince that he rarely showed. "As Heavens as my witness, I take an oath! I will never talk about this secret as long as I am alive!"

Xu Shan couldn't help but frown. From his expressions, it didn't look like he knew the secret of his Celestial Spirit. At best, he knew that he was a Celestial Warrior who was talented in Assassination.

"Good. Forget everything that you saw today," Xu Shan nodded. "Don't ever tell anyone about my Assassination Type Celestial Spirit."

He intentionally mentioned some wrong information, while carefully observing Ye Han's expressions.

Ye Han appeared to believe him, since there was no way for a young man to successfully assassinate three Sky Celestials!

An Assassin Clan Celestial Spirit was also one of the most dangerous Celestial Spirits, so he understood the Emperor's actions even more.

Moreover, in his eyes, he had somehow formed another misunderstanding!

There was no way for such a genius to be so ruthless in the Dynasty while never revealing his secret! That meant, everything he did in the Dynasty, all his actions since his childhood were nothing but an act to fool the world!

His eyes revealed even more amazement as he thought that he had found out a secret of the Dynasty that the Emperor hadn't told him, despite trusting him! He also didn't want to mention this to the Emperor, worried that the Emperor might be upset that this secret was revealed.
