Villain : After Slacking Off, The Protagonist Collapse

Chapter 199

Seeing him emerge from the Land of Heaven’s Abandonment with an air of arrogance and disregard for others in his tone, the crowd was immediately taken aback.

Many forces scrutinized the man before them, seemingly trying to confirm if he was truly a formidable figure from the Land of Heaven’s Abandonment.

Under the watchful gaze of the crowd, the man remained unfazed, his expression cold and as sharp as a knife.

“Are you questioning me?” The man’s brows furrowed, his eyes turned icy, and the aura of a Quasi-Emperor realm expert burst forth, making the crowd feel uncomfortable under the overwhelming pressure.

Those at the Saint Realm, in particular, felt suffocated under the man’s oppressive presence.

“It must be someone from the Land of Heaven’s Abandonment!”

The ancient imperial clan’s couldn’t help but smile. Since they couldn’t obtain the Pure Yang Root, they certainly couldn’t allow the Primordial Holy Land to have it either.

Moreover, they wanted to see if the Primordial Holy Land would still remain as defiant as before with someone from the Land of Heaven’s Abandonment present.

After pondering for a moment, a strong figure from the Golden Crow Clan pointed towards the direction of the Primordial Holy Land and said lightly, “The Pure Yang Root has already been taken by them. If you want to obtain it, you can only get it from their hands.”

“But let me remind you, the Primordial Holy Land is not to be underestimated. They may not even regard the Land of Heaven’s Abandonment as a threat!”

Beautiful.

The members of the three great ancient imperial clan’s felt delighted, keeping their eyes fixed on the Primordial Holy Land and the man before them, eager to see if anything would spark between the two.

Or whether the Primordial Holy Land could maintain its defiant stance.

“Oh!”

“It seems the fall of the Taiyi Holy Land didn’t serve as a sufficient warning for you! Or is it that the Land of Heaven’s Abandonment has remained hidden for so long that you’ve forgotten the nightmares of the past!”

The man’s face turned cold as he looked down upon the people of the Primordial Holy Land from above. His words fell, and silence ensued in the surroundings.

The atmosphere froze, as if time had stopped. Everyone turned to look at the Primordial Holy Land, curious to see how they would handle this.

The Land of Heaven’s Abandonment is not to be trifled with. In the past, the Taiyi Holy Land was annihilated by them, becoming the nightmare of countless immortal forces. They should not be provoked unless absolutely necessary.

“If there is indeed a Pure Yang Root, give it to him! We cannot offend the Land of Heaven’s Abandonment over such matters!” The Pure Yang Holy Master sighed softly and said.

He could not allow the Primordial Holy Land to fall into a pit of fire for his own interests.

“Indeed, the Primordial Holy Land does not regard any force in the Nine Heavens Realm, not even the Land of Heaven’s Abandonment!”

“What kind of force is the Primordial Holy Land? How could they regard the Land of Heaven’s Abandonment as a threat?”

“That’s true, with three Emperor Weapons shaking the Nine Heavens Realm, who would dare not comply?”

Seeing the Primordial Holy Land remaining silent, the man seemed ready to make a move.

The three great ancient imperial clan’s seized the opportunity to speak with a strange tone, hoping the Primordial Holy Land would back down and lose face.

Or that the Primordial Holy Land would remain defiant as always, prompting the Land of Heaven’s Abandonment to take action and obliterate the Primordial Holy Land. Either choice was beneficial to them.

Suddenly.

The Third Ancestor slowly looked at the man before him and said calmly, “No one dares to underestimate the Land of Heaven’s Abandonment, and neither do we, the Primordial Holy Land! But first, you must be someone from the Land of Heaven’s Abandonment!”

“If those from the Land of Heaven’s Abandonment find out you’re impersonating them, what do you think they’ll do to you?”

With those words spoken, a commotion broke out, and everyone turned their attention to the man, trying to discern his authenticity.

“You dare to question me? It seems the Land of Heaven’s Abandonment has been absent for too long, making you forget our strength!” The man’s face remained unchanged, and his expression showed no sign of disturbance.

Instead, his eyes grew colder, suppressing a surge of anger in his voice.

“Nangong Jing!” The Third Ancestor’s gaze was profound as he spoke softly, interrupting the man without fear.

Upon hearing this name, the man immediately fell silent, a look of panic flickering in his eyes.

‘How did he know my name? Impossible, I’m a figure from nearly a million years ago.’

‘Those from my era have long passed away, and I’ve never walked in the outside world. Very few people know of me. How could he know?’

Nangong Jing felt numb as he never expected the Third Ancestor to directly reveal his name!

“You actually know of me…” Nangong Jing seemed intent on continuing his disguise.

However, the Third Ancestor did not give him the chance. The Imperial Sword swept out, and the sword’s energy surged like a dragon, slashing towards Nangong Jing in an instant.

Seeing this, Nangong Jing’s pupils contracted, and his figure immediately merged into the void.

With a loud bang, the spot he had just occupied exploded instantly, the void shattered, and everything around turned to ashes.

“I gave you a way out, and you refused to take it! In that case, you’ll remain here today, and I’ll see if the Land of Heaven’s Abandonment will avenge you!” The Third Ancestor’s tone was icy as he directly unleashed the three Emperor Weapons to attack Nangong Jing.

Realizing the Third Ancestor was serious, Nangong Jing quickly said, “I apologize, I’m not from the Land of Heaven’s Abandonment. I didn’t mean to!”

“Stop, stop, stop! Don’t attack anymore!”

“Damn it!”

Seeing the assault rushing towards him like a torrent, Nangong Jing had no way to dodge and was forced to charge directly into the Land of Heaven’s Abandonment. He had no choice. If he didn’t go inside, he would likely be detained here.

Seeing Nangong Jing enter the Land of Heaven’s Abandonment, the Third Ancestor also ceased his attack. Words are words, and actions are actions.

They still held a reverence for the Land of Heaven’s Abandonment and didn’t want to provoke its ancient monsters to emerge. Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable.

“People easily believed him just because he pretended, and you ancient imperial clan’s are becoming more brainless!”

“As the saying goes, ‘If the upper beam is not straight, the lower beam will be crooked.’ It is because of fools like you that the ancient imperial clan’s are declining!”

“In the future, open your eyes when you look at people. Don’t treat anyone who comes out of a forbidden area as your own father! Doing so will make you a laughingstock!”

The Third Ancestor uncharacteristically turned into a top-tier mocker, criticizing the ancient imperial clan’s harshly.

And his mockery left these ancient imperial clan’s speechless. They couldn’t fight him, nor could they outtalk him. Furthermore, their previous stance had indeed been embarrassing, as they had been directly fooled by Nangong Jing.

In truth, they couldn’t be entirely blamed. After all, Nangong Jing had emerged from inside, and his cultivation was not weak.

Moreover, Nangong Jing’s demeanor was remarkably similar to someone from the forbidden areas, and they didn’t know him, so they naturally assumed he was from the Land of Heaven’s Abandonment.

Additionally, there was another reason. They had suffered a setback from the Primordial Holy Land and wanted to regain face through Nangong Jing, hoping to make the Primordial Holy Land experience the same.

However, this move did not bring them the satisfaction they desired; instead, it resulted in further ridicule.
