Turns Out, I’m In A Villain Clan! - Chapter 665

Chapter 665: The Foreign Empires Enter the Fray

The sudden reversal caused the expressions of everyone on Yu Feiyan’s side to change.

The overwhelming pressure of more than ten Earth Immortal Realm experts instantly descended upon the battlefield.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Terrifying auras shook the heavens.

The newly arrived foreign experts immediately intercepted the Heaven Suppression Sect, the Crimson Thunder Palace, and the Frost Lily Pavilion’s Earth Immortals.

The battle balance had completely shifted.

Many of Yu Feiyan’s subordinates clenched their fists.

They had never expected the foreign delegations to openly support Yu Zidi.

Although they had suspected some form of cooperation, witnessing more than ten Earth Immortals personally stepping onto the battlefield still left their hearts sinking.

“This is bad!”

“We’re completely suppressed!”

“If this continues…”

Their morale visibly wavered.

Even Yu Qingya’s expression became somewhat grim.

The foreign empires had hidden their intentions well.

The moment they made their move, they had completely overturned the battlefield.

However…

Unlike everyone else, Qin Lingxiao remained remarkably calm.

There wasn’t the slightest ripple in her eyes.

Slowly, she raised one hand.

Her indifferent voice quietly echoed.

“It’s your turn.”

The moment her words fell, five figures silently emerged from different corners of the Imperial Palace.

None of them had appeared through the main entrance.

It was as though they had materialized out of thin air.

Each wore black robes.

Each had their face completely concealed beneath dark masks.

Not a single strand of hair was visible.

The only thing the crowd could sense was the terrifying pressure radiating from their bodies.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Five overwhelming Earth Immortal Realm auras erupted simultaneously.

The entire Imperial Palace trembled violently.

“What?!”

“Another five Earth Immortals?!”

“Where did they come from?!”

Countless spectators cried out in disbelief.

Even the foreign delegation leaders’ expressions changed.

Without giving anyone time to react, the five masked Earth Immortals shot into the sky.

Like five black meteors, they directly intercepted the advancing foreign experts.

Boom!

The heavens exploded.

Violent shockwaves swept across the battlefield as Earth Immortal clashed against Earth Immortal.

The terrifying collision instantly tore apart layers of clouds above the Imperial Palace.

The entire sky seemed on the verge of collapsing.

The five masked Earth Immortals immediately engaged the foreign experts in fierce combat.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

One terrifying collision after another echoed across the skies.

Qi surged wildly as dazzling techniques illuminated the heavens.

The foreign experts’ expressions gradually turned solemn.

As they exchanged blows with the masked figures, the same question arose in each of their minds.

(Who are they?)

Before arriving at the Desolate Heaven Empire, their empires had thoroughly investigated every major faction.

Every Earth Immortal Realm expert within the empire had been carefully documented.

The Royal Ancestor Xuande.

Su Binglan of the Frost Lily Pavilion.

The Earth Immortals of the Heaven Suppression Sect.

The Crimson Thunder Palace.

Even several hidden old monsters from the major clans.

They knew them all.

So who were these five masked Earth Immortals?

From the technique they used, they couldn’t find anything out.

The uncertainty only made foreign experts more cautious.

However, despite their shock, they had little choice.

Since they had already stepped onto the battlefield, there was no turning back.

Boom!

Another violent collision shook the heavens as the Earth Immortals fought with increasing intensity.

Meanwhile, the smile on Yu Zidi’s face finally disappeared.

His expression gradually stiffened.

He had believed that once the foreign delegations intervened, suppressing Yu Feiyan’s forces would be effortless.

After all, more than ten Earth Immortal Realm experts were enough to overwhelm almost any force in the Eastern Region.

Yet…

Who could have imagined, Yu Feiyan still possessed another hidden force.

Five Earth Immortal Realm experts!

Yu Zidi’s heart gradually sank.

Just how many hidden cards did Yu Feiyan still possess?

His fists unconsciously tightened.

Without hesitation, he once again circulated his Qi.

His spiritual transmission shot toward the Li Clan and Zhao Clan.

“Clan Leader Li!”

“Clan Leader Zhao!”

“Move now! If this continues, everything will be ruined!”

Several breaths passed.

Still…

Nothing.

No reply.

No movement.

The Li Clan remained seated.

The Zhao Clan remained equally motionless.

Not a single expert rose from their seats.

“…”

Yu Zidi’s face darkened completely.

“Dammit!”

He could no longer suppress his anger.

With a loud shout, he slammed his foot against the ceremonial platform.

Bang!

The solid stone beneath him instantly shattered into countless pieces.

His expression became incomparably gloomy.

He thought that he has prepared everything meticulously

Yet at the most critical moment, Li and Zhao Clan, upon whom he had placed considerable expectations, had completely ignored his calls for help.

They had betrayed him at this critical moment.

Although Yu Feiyan had revealed another five Earth Immortal Realm experts, the disparity in strength had not completely disappeared.

The foreign delegations still possessed the numerical advantage in terms of Earth Immortals.

With well over ten Earth Immortal Realm experts on the battlefield, they continued to outnumber Yu Feiyan’s side.

However…

Numbers alone did not determine everything.

The five masked Earth Immortals were far from ordinary.

Together with the Heaven Suppression Sect elder, the Crimson Thunder Palace elder, and Su Binglan, they firmly held the foreign experts at bay.

Neither side could gain a decisive advantage in a short period of time.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Violent explosions continuously echoed across the heavens as Earth Immortal fought Earth Immortal.

Meanwhile, the battle below raged just as fiercely.

Although Yu Feiyan’s side was at a disadvantage in terms of Earth Immortal Realm experts, their forces overwhelmingly outnumbered Yu Zidi’s in every other realm.

Immortal Ascension Realm.

Great Ascension Realm.

Void Refinement Realm.

Everywhere across the battlefield, Yu Feiyan’s troops steadily pressed forward.

The Imperial Guards desperately resisted, but under the combined assault of the three great sects and their allied forces, they were gradually forced backward.

For a time…

Neither side could truly claim the upper hand.

The battle had entered a complete stalemate once again.

…

Standing quietly behind Yu Feiyan, Qin Lingxiao calmly surveyed the battlefield.

Her indifferent gaze slowly swept across the various factions before finally settling upon one group.

The Bai Clan!

Bai Zihan remained leisurely seated in his chair.

One hand rested casually upon the armrest while the other held a teacup.

His expression was calm.

It was as though the fierce battle unfolding before him was nothing more than an entertaining performance.

Not once had he shown the slightest intention of intervening.

Seeing this, Qin Lingxiao silently relaxed.

At least for now, the Bai Clan had no intention of participating in this conflict.

Her gaze then slowly shifted away.

It landed upon the ceremonial platform.

Yu Zidi!

By now, the once heavily guarded platform had become noticeably emptier.

Most of the Imperial Guards had already rushed onto the battlefield.

Even Xuande was occupied fighting three Earth Immortals.

Only a handful of loyal guards still remained beside Yu Zidi.

Qin Lingxiao’s eyes narrowed slightly.

(Now is the perfect opportunity.)

There was no need to continue wasting time in this chaotic battlefield.

As long as Yu Zidi died, everything would immediately come to an end.

Without Yu Zidi, no one else possessed the legitimacy or influence to compete for the throne.

Yu Feiyan would naturally become the rightful ruler of the Desolate Heaven Empire.

Without another word, Qin Lingxiao turned toward one of the Immortal Ascension Realm experts beside her.

“Protect Her Highness.”

The cultivator immediately cupped his fists.

“Yes!”

Receiving the order, he immediately stepped closer to Yu Feiyan, vigilantly guarding her surroundings.

The next moment, Qin Lingxiao disappeared.

There wasn’t the slightest fluctuation of Qi.

No sound.

No warning.

She simply vanished from where she stood.

When she appeared again, she was already standing before Yu Zidi.

Only a few steps separated them.

Without the slightest warning, Qin Lingxiao struck.

There was no flashy technique.

No earth-shattering martial art.

She simply raised a single finger.

Yet the instant it descended, space itself seemed to distort.

An invisible force pierced straight toward Yu Zidi’s forehead with terrifying speed.

It was a strike meant to kill.

The few Imperial Guards beside Yu Zidi hadn’t even realized what was happening.

Only when the attack was already inches away did Yu Zidi’s instincts scream in warning.

His pupils shrank to pinpoints.

(Not good!)

Boom!

Just before Qin Lingxiao’s finger reached him, a brilliant golden barrier suddenly erupted around Yu Zidi.

Countless profound runes rapidly spread across the translucent shield.

A terrifying defensive aura burst forth.

Bang!

Qin Lingxiao’s strike landed squarely upon the barrier.

The entire Imperial Palace trembled violently.

Crack! Crack!

Spiderweb-like fractures instantly spread across the golden barrier.

Within a single breath, the Heaven-Grade defensive artifact reached its limit.

Boom!

The barrier exploded into countless fragments of golden light that scattered throughout the sky.

Although it shattered, it had successfully blocked Qin Lingxiao’s fatal strike.

Yu Zidi was blasted backward several dozen meters before barely managing to stabilize himself.

His face had turned completely pale.

Cold sweat drenched his back.

Only now did he clearly see the person who had attacked him.

His eyes widened in horror.

“You…! Yu Feiyan’s attendant…”

He had finally realized it.

The attendant who had remained beside Yu Feiyan all this time was the one who had nearly taken his life.

Had it not been for the Top-Grade Heaven-Grade defensive artifact he took from the treasury, he would already be a corpse.

The thought alone sent chills through his entire body.

Meanwhile, Qin Lingxiao looked at the shattered fragments of the barrier with slight surprise.

A Top-Grade Heaven-Grade defensive artifact!

Even within the Central Glorious Continent, such treasures were far from common.

Still, her expression quickly returned to indifference.

It changed nothing.

Without anyone capable of stopping her, Yu Zidi was merely delaying the inevitable.

Whether it took one strike or ten, the outcome would remain exactly the same.
