Villain: After Truncating the Heroine, the Protagonist Collapses

90: I won’t get old even if the sky and the earth grow old! Vest endsThe two sides finally clashed.

As they collided, the heavens and earth seemed to tremble.

That’s right.

Lin Fan, standing before him, possessed immense power and was aided by this enigmatic world.

But Yang Yucheng was no slouch either!

He hadn’t forgotten his other initial objective.

Previously, the dark flesh, the boundless tentacles seeping from the strange lake nearby, and the cruelly slaughtered creatures had all vanished without a trace, having been collected by Yang Yucheng into the human emperor banner.

And now.

By transforming these things, the majority of the creatures from this bizarre world, into masses of evil Qi and burning them, they served as the support for Yang Yucheng’s current Half-step Spirit Venerable, unorthodox persona—Ageless Elder Yuan Delong. Its power was naturally extraordinary.

It could truly contend with the Fallen Divine Phoenix before him... Boom!

The two crashed together.

Yang Yucheng burned all the evil Qi, but the final result...

The Fallen Divine Phoenix shone brightly.

The Phoenix’s black flames were ceaseless, and the evil Qi seemed to gradually melt upon contact with these flames.

”In the end, I still lost!”

Yang Yucheng’s heart sank.

At this moment, the boundless evil Qi also showed signs of backlash!

A golden light flashed in Yang Yucheng’s eyes, and he raised his hand, activating the bronze ice coffin he had recently refined.

The ice coffin’s lid opened.

The endless chilling cold Qi inside, coupled with its inherent suppressive power, subdued all the backlash. Immediately, everything vanished into thin air!

This was the end!

”Ageless Elder Yuan Delong, do you admit your mistake?”

With one move, Lin Fan, as the victor, emerged triumphant!

The sky-filling flames dissipated.

Clad in a black robe, he appeared before Yang Yucheng, radiating confidence and looking exceptionally heroic!

Another classic trope!

Yang Yucheng was speechless, grumbling internally.

He let out a cold laugh, his icy gaze fixed on Lin Fan, and said, ”Admit my mistake? Will you let me go then?”

”Heaven and Earth may age, but I, the Ageless Elder Yuan Delong, do not! How could I admit a mistake?”

”Hahaha!”

Yang Yucheng’s booming voice roared with laughter.

This persona was nearly at its end, its curtain call.

But before its demise, he wanted to make a grand, awe-inspiring exit. That was the true ending a villainous persona deserved.

Not to be easily slain by the protagonist, which would make him seem too much like a mere stepping stone!

What does your power have to do with me?

My display of weakness and extraordinary qualities will still earn me a good name!

”Indeed!”

Facing Lin Fan’s murderous aura, Yang Yucheng showed no fear, not a hint of dread in his eyes. Though he carried the air of a fallen hero, his expression remained unchanged.

Suddenly, he began to recite a poem.

”Heaven and earth fill my chest, sighs birth wind and thunder; I wish to borrow the wings of a yellow crane, to soar through the clouds!”

”Heaven and Earth may age, but I do not; in the Dao’s contention, I am first!”

”Lin Fan, you are formidable!”

”But today, I, the Ageless Elder, will die without regret!”

Yang Yucheng roared!

And at this moment.

Due to these words, everyone looked up at Ageless Elder Yuan Delong.

Their eyes lit up.

It was truly hard to imagine that a mere Demonic Path fiend, at the end of his rope, could still possess such heroic ambition!

As the saying goes, an old steed in the stable still longs to gallop a thousand li; a martyr in his twilight years still harbors grand ambitions.

To hear the Dao in the morning, and die content in the evening!

Ageless Elder Yuan Delong had just displayed such unbridled courage.

At this moment.

As he was about to die, even though the righteous and Demonic Paths were irreconcilable, the surrounding crowd couldn’t help but feel a sense of pity for such a Demonic Path hero!

”Hahaha!”

Yang Yucheng continued to laugh uproariously.

The ritual was complete.

Next, it was time for his true self to appear. If he didn’t, it would arouse suspicion!

”Yang Yucheng, I know you are here! You and I have battled for half a lifetime. Now, I, Ageless Elder Yuan Delong, will die, and I will die by your hand!”

”Lin Fan, do you want revenge? Then go find your Senior Brother!”

”Hahahaha!”

No sooner said than done!

Before everyone’s eyes, Ageless Elder Yuan Delong’s spiritual power leaked out, and the surrounding energy became excessively dense!

The self-detonation of a Half-step Spirit Venerable unleashed astonishing power.

Before him.

Lin Fan, seeing this, couldn’t help but feel a chill and retreated repeatedly.

With a loud boom, the sky collapsed and the earth caved in!

But even so, Ageless Elder Yuan Delong did not perish.

In the distance, a streak of light descended from the sky.

As soon as it appeared, bone-chilling coldness permeated the surroundings, enveloping heaven and earth.

It was precisely the top-grade spirit artifact, the bronze ice coffin.

The ice coffin descended.

The self-detonation, only halfway complete, was completely covered by the bronze ice coffin, which even sealed Ageless Elder Yuan Delong, a Half-step Spirit Venerable, within it in broad daylight, refining him inside.

And from within, the Ageless Elder Yuan Delong’s heaven-shattering screams of agony echoed!

”Yang Yucheng, it really is you!”

”I knew you would come sooner or later. To die by your hand, I, Ageless Elder Yuan Delong, am willing.”

”Because you, only you, are my true fated tribulation!”

”I! Yuan Delong, have no regrets in this life! To encounter a powerhouse like you, I die without regret!”

Yang Yucheng’s figure had not yet appeared, but Yuan Delong’s words slowly spread, echoing through heaven and earth!

Upon hearing this, everyone’s expressions were complex, all marveling!

Just like that, a Half-step Spirit Venerable powerhouse perished right before their eyes.

No one could have even a shred of doubt!

...Above the bronze ice coffin, Yang Yucheng’s figure materialized amidst surging flames.

His deep eyes looked at the Spiritual Artifact beneath his feet, a hint of regret showing in them.

”Although evil cannot triumph over good, such a hero is quite respectable!”

”Ageless Elder Yuan Delong, die!”

Yang Yucheng closed his eyes, his earlier hesitant words now becoming even more resolute.

At this moment, Yang Yucheng, like a righteous figure judging on behalf of heaven, with a gentle sentence, declared the final outcome of this battlefield.

The heavens and earth fell silent, but then the clamor of all the nearby people rose again.

Everyone looked at Yang Yucheng, the Young Supreme, the Prodigy atop the bronze ice coffin, with excited and thrilled expressions.

They shouted loudly.

”Yang Yucheng! Indeed, only Yang Yucheng is the true powerhouse of the Northern Region, the true Young Supreme of Fengyun Sect!”

”Lin Fan is not bad, but unfortunately, compared to Yang Yucheng at this moment, he is indeed still lacking.”

”A Half-step Spirit Venerable, rather die by Yang Yucheng’s hand than by Lin Fan’s sword, which clearly shows that Yang Yucheng’s strength is probably also at the Half-step Spirit Venerable level.”

”That’s natural! Don’t forget that Yang Yucheng, even before breaking through to the Spirit Emperor Realm, already possessed combat power that ranked among the top in the Spirit Emperor Realm. Now that he has broken through to Spirit Emperor, he is invincible among his peers, and being able to contend with a Half-step Spirit Venerable is nothing to be surprised about!”
