Eternal Villain: I can enslave Reality!

Chapter 10 10: Assassination



Even the Elders of other clans never ignored her like that, let alone an ordinary person who hadn't even awakened a Celestial Spirit! She was one of the few geniuses who had become a Celestial General in just over two years after awakening her Celestial Spirit!

Xu Shan frowned, finally turning his attention to Chen Rouyin. He didn't even realize that there was already a certain sense of displeasure deep within his heart. He was already stressed about the changes in him and the Celestial Palace while this girl came to him, troubling him for no reason.

He had already given that girl a lot of room to retreat… at least as much as he could without revealing that he wasn't the Third Prince. However, she was still holding onto her Sword.

If he still didn't do anything, his identity as the Third Prince could very well be suspected. If it was the real Third Prince, he would've already commanded his men to kill her without caring about the clan behind her.

For him, his own identity and safety was paramount. The girl came here at this time, and that too with her men. It was certainly going overboard. It wouldn't have been ignored by the Third Prince.

He just had to get into the character and remind everyone why the Third Prince was feared so much! If not, it would've been suspicious.

However, he also had to do it in such a way that it didn't bring him too much trouble in the future.

He didn't even feel as if it was hard to act like that. It was as if he subconsciously wanted to do that in reality and not just act!

"You're still ignoring me?!" Chen Rouyin was trying her hardest to remain calm, even after she was ignored constantly.

However, the more Xu Shan ignored him, the worse she felt. It reached a point where she couldn't help but raise her sword, pointing it at the Third Prince as she spoke.

Xu Shan calmly glanced at the girl's Sword before him. However, there was not a single shred of respect in his eyes.

At the moment, no one could see it, but there was a subtle shadow of a star deep within his left eye that was barely noticeable by anyone.

In fact, even the Third Prince, or anyone around him hadn't known about that!

"Zi Huang, what's the punishment for trying to assassinate a Prince?"

The Third Prince asked, still focused on Chen Rouyin who aimed her Sword at him even though she didn't really intend to attack.

Chen Rouyin felt her heart skip a beat. She didn't know why, but she had a very bad feeling about this! Why would Xu Shan suddenly ask that question out of nowhere?!

"There's only one punishment. Death." Zi Huang replied. Even he wondered why the Third Prince suddenly asked that question.

'Could it be…?' He couldn't help but think of a possibility which sent a chill down his spine.

"Good. Kill everyone that Lady Rouyin brought with her and capture her. After that, send a letter to father. Tell him that Chen Rouyin brought her people in the middle of the night to assassinate me."

"Then send a similar letter to the Chen Clan. Tell them to come to my father's palace personally and tell us why we shouldn't kill their precious daughter."

Hearing Xu Shan's command, there was not a single person who didn't feel a chill deep within their hearts, especially the people brought by Chen Rouyin! Their faces turned as pale as a thin sheet of paper.

Even though they had heard about how ruthless the Prince was, they hadn't thought that he would go to this extent. They were from one of the four great clans! Their Patriarch was the General of the Eternal Dynasty, protecting the Dynasty throughout the years!

When they came here, they didn't think that Xu Shan would dare to touch them! However, reality felt like a slap on their faces!

Even though Xu Shan wanted to act the role of the Third Prince and didn't want to be too extreme, he just didn't know why, but subconsciously, he was even more extreme than he himself wanted to be! It was as if there was something really wrong about him. However, when he said those words, it felt really good.

As if there was something within himself that was satisfied! This feeling… for some reason, he even felt that he had somehow become a little stronger now when he didn't restrict his actions!

He didn't notice, but the subtle shadow of the star in his left eyes became a little less illusory and slightly more real at the moment.

For some strange reason, the thought of having someone killed didn't feel wrong or disgusting at the moment. Generally, he would've been horrified to command someone to be killed. However, for some reason, he was perfectly calm, as if he was commanding for some ants to be killed.

"Y-you!" Chen Rouyin's face went pale at the moment as she subconsciously lowered her sword. She hadn't thought that Xu Shan would go this far, not even giving face to her clan!

"What assassination?! I came here to ask you a question! I just brought my men with me for safety!" She exclaimed. However, her voice seemingly fell on deaf ears.

There was not a single ripple of emotion on Xu Shan's face as he calmly looked at Chen Rouyin, the little princess of the Chen Clan! In fact, he was already being very considerate by not commanding his men to kill her. If it was the real Third Prince, the command might've been a little different.

The royal guards didn't delay in executing the command anymore. They surrounded the people that Chen Rouyin brought with her.

Chen Rouyin's face turned red in anger. "Don't push me!"

She couldn't take it anymore and raised her Sword. A fight started between the group that Chen Rouyin brought with her and the Royal Guards.

She wanted to fight her way out of here. If she was caught, things could've been really bad. First, she wanted to go back to her clan and tell the Elders that she was innocent.

She didn't believe the Royal Army would chase after her there. However, if she was caught here and sent to the Emperor's Palace as a prisoner, the outcome was very uncertain. At best, her clan would've had to pay a lot to calm down the anger of the Emperor so he could free her.

Not only that, but it would've also weakened the foundation of her own clan in the Dynasty! Everyone knew how the Emperor treated his third son after all!

She realized that she had really underestimated the craziness of the Third Prince when she came here! He was even more crazy than the rumors!

Even though she brought some powerful men from the Chen Clan with her, including someone who had similar strength to Zi Huang, she was still stunned to find that it was her side that was at a disadvantage!

The Royal Guards were in a similar celestial realm to her men. However, they were well trained. Their strength couldn't be defined by their Celestial Realm! If they were weak, they wouldn't have been allowed to guard the most precious son of the Emperor after all!

Standing at the entrance, Xu Shan watched the battle calmly. It was his first time seeing a battle between the Celestial Warriors. It wasn't wrong to say that he was fighting a battle between gods. Each of their attacks was about to destroy cities!

Unfortunately, more than the battle, he was concerned about his own changes. He really wanted to go back to his room and ask the mysterious woman about this sudden change! Was it because of the cost of his wish? Or was it something else?

He could feel himself change a little!

Even as he watched people being killed right before his eyes, he didn't find it strange. It was as if it was very normal. Through the Third Prince's memories, he was sure that it was also what  the Third Prince often felt.

In fact, it was wrong to say that the Third Prince had developed a ruthless personality as he grew up. Instead, it was much more accurate to say that the Third Prince also suffered with this strange phenomenon... Something that felt uncontrollable!
