Eternal Villain: I can enslave Reality!

With everyone else dead, there was only one person left... It was Duan Mu, the person who was the weakest in the group. He was also the person who hadn't shown even the slightest of hostility toward him. However, that wasn't enough for Xu Shan to leave a witness. 

Surprisingly enough, Duan Mu hadn't tried to escape. Instead, he was sitting on his knees, looking at the dead bodies of the girl and Duan Yang. Instead of sadness, his eyes contained a hint of happiness, as if he was truly pleased that this happened. 

"Thank you!" He told Xu Shan and it seemingly came from his heart. 

"Thank me for what? Do you think I'll let you live?" Xu Shan asked, seemingly intrigued. 

The young man shook his head lightly. However, the gratefulness didn't disappear from his face. 

"I was going to die here anyway. Because of you, at least I died after all my grievances are over," the man spoke, lowering his gaze. 

His voice was somewhat down. 

"If they had left after killing me, they would've made the life of my mother a living hell. You did me a favor by killing them, and I won't hesitate for a single second if you take my life right now!" He further stated, surprising Xu Shan. 

"In any case, if I go back alive, it'll only make them more suspicious of me and think I had a hand in it... That will be bad for my mother... Instead of troubling her, I would rather die here. No one will miss the presence of a weak person like me anyway..."

Xu Shan was quite curious as he heard the man. He could see a palm imprint on the right cheek of the man. It was clear that he was slapped not long ago. His lips were still bleeding, so it wasn't light either. 

"If you're saying that for sympathy, then it won't work for me."

Xu Shan stepped closer to the young man, and reached out his hand. 

The young man closed his eyes. Even though he was prepared for death, his body was still trembling. He couldn't even keep his eyes open. 

Xu Shan's fingers were about to touch the young man, but right then, he felt a current course through his body which made him retreat his hand. 

Xu Shan frowned, observing the young man from head to toe. 

It was evident that the man didn't have strength at all. He wasn't taking any treasure to hide his aura. That meant what stopped him just now was another treasure. 

Even if he had a treasure to protect him, how could there be a treasure in the Lower Realm which could affect him? And why was a treasure like that in the possession of a young man who didn't have the slightest of strength?

Xu Shan took a step back, his eyes falling on the beautiful green pendant around the young man's neck. 

Even though the treasure could provide some resistance, but it hadn't completely activated. If Xu Shan wanted, he could use his strength to still kill Duan Mu. However, for that, he had to use strength beyond the limit of the Lower Realm. 

However, more than the limit, he was curious about Duan Mu. 

'A young man, with no strength but a mysterious treasure, bullied by others... Why does it sound like a hero's template?'

Xu Shan grew even more intrigued about the pendant. He reached out his hand to take the pendant even if he had to go against Heaven and break the Limits of the Lower Realm!

He grabbed the pendant. The beautiful green pendant started resisting fiercely. Unfortunately, since it wasn't completely activated, it couldn't even provide enough resistance. 

However, to Xu Shan's surprise, the pendant started breaking apart. It was as if the pendant had a life of its own, where it was willing to be destroyed but not be taken by others. 

This made Xu Shan even more intrigued. It was as if Duan Mu was the only person who could possess it.

There weren't many treasures with Spirituality like this! Even his precious daggers hadn't reached a point like that. 

In the end, Xu Shan took his hands off before the pendant could actually destroy itself. 

As soon as Xu Shan took his hands off, the pendant stopped. 

'A child of heaven who hasn't started his journey yet... Interesting...' Xu Shan smiled, gazing at the young man before him. 'This can be fun...'

"You said your mother is weak and you don't want to trouble her?" Xu Shan asked, taking a few steps back. "What about your Father?"

"Huh?" Duan Mu opened his eyes, surprised that he was still alive. 

However, his face dropped when he thought about the question. 

"My father..." He touched the pendant, as if thinking of the past. "I've never seen my father. He abandoned my mother and me before I was even born..."

'As expected, this pendant comes from his father. For him to have something like this, he definitely isn't from the Lower Realm. I can't even find a treasure like this in the Celestial Realm easily...'

Xu Shan nodded. Even though he had already guessed everything, he still asked Duan Mu for his life history. 

"I see... So you want strength." After hearing everything, Xu Shan smiled. "I can give you the strength you're craving for. But the question is, what can you give me in return?"

Even though he asked Duan Mu what he could give, Xu Shan already had an answer as to what he wanted from the young man. 

Most of the Children of Heaven had already started their journey. However, Duan Mu was still like an unopened book, one that hated Heaven! This was a unique opportunity for him to try something... To get a loyal dog... A dog that could bite the loyal dogs of Heaven for him!

Moreover, it was only a matter of time before that pendant was going to activate and provide the cheat to Duan Mu. At that time, Xu Shan wanted to have complete control of him... 

Killing Duan Mu like this was a waste. He first had to show the man the privileges that came with being a Villain... He had to turn the son of heaven into the son of the devil! And he had a plan as to how he was going to do it. 

He was quite looking forward to it as well... It was his new pet project... 

"What can I offer you? Someone as strong as you, should already have everything?" Duan Mu raised his head. 

Xu Shan placed his hand on the head of Duan Mu, before speaking, "Since heaven refused to help you, you can only make a deal with the devil. And this devil wants only one thing from you…"
