Villain: I Possess The Dragon Yang Dao Physique, All Saintesses Turns Into Villainesses

Chapter 119: “The Word of Truth – Repelling the Demons!”

“I’ll do it!” Lin Qi’an stepped forward, his white robes as pure as snow.

The Book Saint and the Saint of Ink both felt a shock in their hearts. It was simply impossible! Beneath the realm of Saints, all others were mere ants. Despite Lin Qi’an having already reached the Celestial Realm, unmatched among the younger generation, in the eyes of a Saint, he was still just a child.

With their combined strength, they could barely hold back the overwhelming demonic energy. How could the Crown Prince manage this?

“Trust the Crown Prince! Act quickly!” Aunt You snapped her head back, her voice filled with urgency.

Given the dire situation, no one had time to think further. The Saints hurriedly nodded, their only option being to place their hopes in Lin Qi’an.

“We leave it to the Crown Prince.”

This was the battlefield of Saints! No one else could offer any meaningful assistance, so they all retreated a mile away.

Even the aura emanating from the clash was enough to stir the blood, making everyone’s bodies tremble uncontrollably. 

The demonic energy clashed with the aura of the Saints, creating an atmosphere of dread. Water droplets floated in the air, stones shattered, and dust filled the sky, resembling the end of the world.

At the foot of Yunmo Dao Palace, fear gripped the hearts of all, for any misstep could spell their doom today.

“Why are there so many demons in Emperor Wenqu’s secret realm?”

“I don’t know…”

“These demons willingly entered the realm, guarding the path to Emperor Wenqu’s inheritance, not wanting anyone to obtain it. Now that it has been claimed, of course they want to chase down and eliminate the one who took it!”

“So, their target is the Crown Prince?”

As people began to fear for Lin Qi’an’s safety, they suddenly saw him walking forward, moving against the flow of demons.

“What is the Crown Prince doing!?”

“Has he gone mad… does he want to die?”

“Someone bring him back! He’s walking into death itself!”

Everyone was overcome with worry, especially the maids, Zhao Qingmeng, Mo Shuiqiu, and others, whose hearts leapt into their throats.

Though the Crown Prince had repelled the demons by himself within the secret realm, that was only because of special rules inside. He had harnessed the power of Emperor Wenqu through talent and wisdom. Outside, there were no such rules to rely on. Here, he had to depend solely on his own strength.

Fear spread through the crowd, panic written on every face. The presence of the demonic horde brought an overwhelming pressure and terror. These ancient demonic species, capable of troubling even Great Emperors, were beyond what mere mortals could handle.

Suddenly, a loud, resonant shout echoed across the sky.

“Lin!”

The voice was filled with immense righteousness. At the same time, a large character, “临,” appeared in the air, written with dragon-like strokes. It flew toward the entrance of the secret realm.

The demon horde trembled and the surging demonic energy halted in its tracks.

The Book Saint, Wang Yi, narrowed his eyes sharply. “It’s the Nine Words of Truth from Emperor Wenqu!”

“How is this possible? He already comprehended the divine ability in just one day?”

His heart was filled with unspeakable shock. This divine ability was infused with immense righteous energy, incredibly effective against demons. Perhaps Lin Qi’an could really pull this off.

“Bing!”

Like the sound of thunder, the second golden character flew forth.

Under the suppression of the Nine Words of Truth, the demonic energy scattered, relieving much of the pressure on everyone.

“Dou!”

“Zhe!”

Lin, Bing, Dou, Zhe.

These four words of truth were the utmost limit Lin Qi’an could currently wield! The four golden characters pushed the demonic energy back nearly a hundred meters. The demons, who had been madly surging forward, trembled violently, retreating again and again.

“Now! Attack!”

The Saints were overjoyed, not daring to waste a single moment. They fully activated their spiritual power, forcibly sealing off the entrance to Emperor Wenqu’s secret realm.

With a resounding boom, the light gate slammed shut, disappearing into the air.

The world returned to peace.

Several of the powerful experts were drenched in sweat, utterly exhausted. They had expected a catastrophe today… but thanks to the Crown Prince’s assistance, the crisis had been resolved with surprising ease.

Indeed, the younger generation could not be underestimated!

“Thank you, Your Highness, for your help.”

The Saint of Ink, the Lord of Yunmo Dao Palace, was the first to step forward, bowing to express his gratitude to Lin Qi’an.

The Book Saint and the old Grandmaster from the Tai’an Imperial Family were still reeling from the shock. They could not fathom that in just a single day, Lin Qi’an had mastered four words of the divine ability, the Nine Words of Truth.

Is he even human?

Even a monster couldn’t achieve such a feat!

Even if Emperor Wenqu himself were to be reborn, it would be impossible! This child is truly terrifying… In the future, we must never become enemies with him. It would be best to bring him to our side, as he is destined to surpass even the Sword Emperor in power.

The group behind was completely awed by Lin Qi’an’s display of strength.

“The Crown Prince drove back the demonic horde single-handedly…”

“I thought he was already terrifying enough during the Beiyang Great Hunt, but now he’s even more fearsome!”

“After this literary gathering, the Crown Prince of Beiyang’s name will surely shake the entire Canglan Dao Domain!”

From the disciples to the elders of Yunmo Dao Palace, everyone cupped their fists in gratitude toward Lin Qi’an, saying in unison, “Thank you, Your Highness, for your assistance!”

Only after expressing their thanks to Lin Qi’an did they turn to thank the other notable figures. If the demonic creatures had not been handled properly, millions of lives could have been lost. Yet today, only a few were injured or killed, minimizing the potential disaster.

With this, the literary gathering was officially over.

As for which woman the Crown Prince ultimately chose, the matter had already been settled within the secret realm. Everyone was well aware of the result… 

The Princess of Tai’an, Zhao Qingmeng, had actually taken her elder sister’s former fiancé! How ridiculous! But who would dare speak ill of it?

The most frustrated of all was Zhao Ziyu. He had come to this literary gathering intending to suppress Lin Qi’an and win the favor of the Green Lotus Fairy, Lu Miaoyin. 

Yet once again, he witnessed Lin Qi’an stealing the limelight, earning the admiration of countless people. And to make matters worse, his own sister had been won over by Lin Qi’an!

It was a complete defeat—he lost both his sister and his pride.

Now that the gathering had ended and the Crown Prince had made his choice, there was no point for others to remain. They began to bid farewell and leave. Zhao Ziyu was also preparing to return to Tai’an City.

Before leaving, he specifically sought out Lu Miaoyin and extended an invitation:

“Two months from now, my Tianlang Immortal Dynasty will hold its millennial celebration. People from all across the Canglan Dao Domain will gather in Tai’an City. Would you, Green Lotus Fairy, be interested in attending?”

“Thank you, Your Highness, but there’s no need for concern. I will certainly attend when the time comes,” Lu Miaoyin replied gracefully, though declining his offer to travel together.

The millennial celebration was an event that she would definitely attend. All the major sects would send representatives, and even the Sword Emperor might appear. 

However, there was still some time before the event. Staying here a little longer might give her more opportunities to interact with the Crown Prince.

“Brother Lin, I should get going as well.”

Zhao Qingmeng also came to bid farewell to Lin Qi’an. 

She had been away for too long and needed to return. Although she wished to stay close to Lin Qi’an, cultivation was still her top priority. With the memories of a Great Emperor in this life, her path to becoming an Empress would be twice as fast.

Hmph! When I become the first to ascend to the Empress realm, which woman will dare compete with me? Won’t I be the rightful main wife?

She left with these ambitions in mind, smart as always. Naturally, she also wanted to return and give her elder sister a little shock.

“Go ahead and take care of yourself,” Lin Qi’an said gently.

“Don’t forget to come to the Tianlang Immortal Dynasty’s millennial celebration!” Zhao Qingmeng reminded him.

“Rest assured, I’ll be there.”

“And don’t go around flirting with other women too much while you’re out!”

“How far do you think your control goes?”

The two exchanged playful banter, drawing envious glances from everyone around them. Onlookers couldn’t help but sigh—these two were truly a match made in heaven!

With that, Zhao Qingmeng departed, following Zhao Ziyu and his group.

Inside the carriage, Zhao Ziyu looked at his sister in disbelief and asked, “You really got together with Lin Qi’an?!”

“Zhao Ziyu, listen carefully. I have something important to tell you, and you’d better remember it,” Zhao Qingmeng said, her tone turning serious.

In front of Lin Qi’an, she had acted like a sweet, innocent girl, but in front of others, especially her brother, she could instantly regain the imposing aura of a future Empress. Even Zhao Ziyu was startled by the sudden change in her demeanor.

“Wha… what is it?” Zhao Ziyu stammered, a bit taken aback.

“Do not ever go against Lin Qi’an. If you heed my words, you can live peacefully as his brother-in-law, with no worries for the future. But if you provoke him… not even the Emperor of Tai’an can bear the consequences for you.” Zhao Qingmeng’s words were sharp and direct.

Zhao Ziyu was left speechless. She had not only addressed him by name but had even referred to their father, the Emperor, in such a casual manner! It was as if his sister had become a completely different person.

“Don’t oppose Lin Qi’an…” He mulled over these words, starting to grasp their meaning. 

From what he had witnessed at the literary gathering, it was clear that Lin Qi’an was no ordinary person. Zhao Qingmeng’s advice seemed sound enough.

Back at Yunmo Dao Palace, nearly all the sects had already left, except for the people from Green Lotus Immortal Island.

“You’re not leaving yet, Miaoyin?” Mo Shuiqiu asked with a smile.

In the past, she had always encouraged Lu Miaoyin to stay a little longer, as they were close friends with much to talk about. But this year, something was different. 

Mo Shuiqiu found Lu Miaoyin’s presence somewhat bothersome and was nearly ready to issue a polite but firm invitation for her to leave.

“No rush, I plan to stay a few more days,” Lu Miaoyin responded.

Mo Shuiqiu laughed to herself—Green Lotus Fairy’s skin had certainly grown thicker. Clearly, she was hoping to spend more time with the Crown Prince, and it wasn’t as if anyone couldn’t see through her intentions.

After the literary gathering, there was a day of rest. Mo Shuiqiu unexpectedly came to find Lin Qi’an.

“Your Highness, may I ask a favor?”

“Go ahead,” Lin Qi’an replied.

“In Yunmo Dao Palace, we have a sacred weapon passed down from our ancestors, known as the Mountain and River Sun and Moon Scripture. We have been studying it for a long time but have been unable to unlock its full power. 

“Would Your Highness be willing to take a look? Perhaps you can uncover its mysteries?”

“Very well, let’s go take a look,” Lin Qi’an agreed.
