Villain: Manipulating the Heroines into hating the Protagonist

Chapter 279 Wang Jian Confronts Emperor Wang In Battle

Emperor Wang found himself utterly taken aback by Wang Jianʼs abrupt appearance in the throne room, facilitated by the enigmatic Spatial Rift.

The sheer potency emanating from the rift left Emperor Wang grappling with a sense of both awe and recognition, as if the power it exuded was akin to his own.

He couldnʼt help but unleash his frustration in words, his voice dripping with anger and scorn, ”Well, well, well, isnʼt this a surprise? The prodigal son returns, huh? Though I must admit, I didnʼt expect you to have the audacity to face me after the revelation of your devilish heritage, Jian.”

Wang Jianʼs response was as direct as it was chillingly calm, ”Iʼve come here to end you, father. Once you are dead, I will rule this Empire.”

Emperor Wangʼs reaction oscillated between incredulity and derision, his voice tinged with mocking incredulity, ”Oh, really? You believe that taking my life would magically make you fit to rule this Empire? Such naivety. The people would never accept you as their ruler because of your identity as a devil!”

A sly smile played upon Wang Jianʼs lips, his composure unwavering in the face of his fatherʼs disbelief. ”Believe me, Iʼve meticulously considered the aftermath of your demise. Amidst the chaos these devils sow, despair will shroud the Empire. At that very juncture, the Empress and Second Queen will step forward, announcing their allegiance to my faction. They will declare that only through supporting me can the menace of these devils be quelled. As for your death, well, youʼve made things much simpler by inviting the experts from the Golden Sun Empire, havenʼt you? Keke…”

Emperor Wangʼs eyes widened in stark shock at Wang Jianʼs words, his voice laced with anger and disbelief, ”My Empress and Second Queen are with you?!”

Wang Jian responded, his tone dripping with delight and a touch of malevolence, ”Absolutely, father. I abducted them away from their palace and now they reside within my dungeon. It seems your taste in women rivals my own. Indulging in their beauty was, I must admit, an exquisite delight. Initially, they resisted my advances, but after one night of passion, they were ensnared by my touch, begging for more. They now heed my every command, ready to do my bidding.”

Emperor Wangʼs countenance contorted, a mix of shock and revulsion clouding his features. His voice trembled with disbelief and anger, ”You are a fucking degenerate! I canʼt believe that my own flesh and blood actually dared to violate my wives. Your very half-mothers? Today, I shall obliterate you and cleanse this world of your evil!”

Wang Jianʼs eyes rolled in a gesture of disdain, his voice dripping with nonchalance, ”Donʼt prattle about ambitions you cannot achieve, father.”

”Attack him, Chonglin!” Emperor roared.

In the blink of an eye, an expert who had remained concealed behind the Emperorʼs throne lunged forward with blinding speed, hurtling toward Wang Jianʼs group.

Yet, Wang Jian remained stationary, allowing Yue Yanling and Grand Elder Yi to spring into action. With calculated swiftness, they positioned themselves ahead of Wang Jian, forming an impenetrable shield against Chonglinʼs rapid advance.

Emperor Wangʼs brows knitted with disapproval as he witnessed Yue Yanling and Grand Elder Yi stepping forward to protect Wang Jian, despite the shocking claims he had just heard from his sonʼs lips. ”Both of you are women, yet you stand resolute in defending this degenerate?”

Wang Jianʼs lips curled into an evil smirk, amusement dancing in his eyes as he retorted, ”Words are futile with them, Father. Both these women are my slaves now, much like your own wives are at this moment.”

With a cold and calculated tone, Wang Jian commanded Yue Yanling and Grand Elder Yi, ”Ensure his demise swiftly. Carry out the plan as intended and signal me once itʼs done.”

”As you wish, Your Highness,” Yue Yanling responded, her tone laced with obedience.

In an instant, a massive spatial rift tore open the fabric of space itself, swallowing Yue Yanling, Grand Elder Yi, and the enigmatic Chonglin.

The task of enveloping all three within this spatial anomaly wouldnʼt have been easy, but the circumstances favored Wang Jian.

Both Yue Yanling and Grand Elder Yi held onto Chonglinʼs spear, creating an opportunity for Wang Jianʼs spatial manipulation to swallow them whole.

As the trio disappeared into the spatial rift, they reemerged in an expansive, desolate field that was some distance away from the capital. Here, they could engage in combat without hindrance or restraint.

Amidst the chaos, the clash between Wang Jian and the Emperor erupted in tandem.

The Emperor swiftly retrieved a formidable axe from his spatial ring, its gleaming edge reflecting his determination as he charged with relentless intent toward Wang Jian.

In a seamless motion, Wang Jian employed the art of Spatial Movement, vanishing from his position with an almost ethereal grace, narrowly evading the deadly arc of the Emperorʼs axe.

Emerging from the spatial void, Wang Jian repositioned himself beside Emperor Wang, seizing the opportune moment to strike.

However, the Emperorʼs instincts were razor-sharp; he reacted with remarkable speed to Wang Jianʼs spatial maneuver, his axe sweeping through the air in a calculated arc, aimed at cleaving Wang Jian in two.

Caught in a split-second decision, Wang Jian was compelled to enact his Spatial Movement once more, shifting with a fluid grace to dodge the Emperorʼs devastating assault.

The clash between the two combatants continued, a fierce dance of power and strategy as they sought to outmaneuver each other. Yet, it became clear to the Emperor that relying solely on conventional tactics wouldnʼt secure victory. It was time to take it to the next level.

The shimmering energy of Gold Element enveloped Emperor Wangʼs form, bolstering his physical prowess, while the crackling tendrils of Lightning Element surged through his veins, lending him an astonishing burst of speed.

The fusion of these elements transformed Emperor Wang into a force to be reckoned with, his attacks now a fusion of raw strength and lightning-swift strikes.

Caught off-guard by the sudden surge in his fatherʼs abilities, Wang Jian found himself on the defensive, forced to divert his energies into strengthening his own body with intense qi.

But despite his efforts, the Emperorʼs Axe, now imbued with the potent Gold Element, connected with Wang Jianʼs reinforced defenses.

The impact was jarring, sending shockwaves through his body. The force of the blow was so immense that Wang Jian was propelled backward, crashing through the palace walls and into the open air.

The Emperor pursued relentlessly, a streak of lightning incarnate, closing the gap with astonishing speed. He prepared for another mighty strike, his intent to finish the fight growing stronger.

Yet, Wang Jianʼs mastery of Spatial Movement proved his salvation once again. In a blink, he vanished from the Emperorʼs impending blow, leaving only the echo of his presence behind.

The devastating blow struck the earth, unleashing a seismic shockwave that rippled across the surroundings, leaving a lasting mark of their titanic battle.

Wang Jianʼs gaze fixed upon the aftermath of their initial clash, a satisfied smile gracing his lips. ”As expected, your strength lives up to its reputation. Thereʼs no need for me to hold back any longer.”

In response, the very air around Wang Jian began to dance with vibrant orange flames, a fiery manifestation of the Solar Flames he commanded. These flames, fueled by the energy of the sun itself, were further empowered by his profound insights into the Laws of Fire.

The clash that followed was nothing short of cataclysmic.

Wang Jianʼs fist met the force of Emperor Wangʼs mighty axe, and to the astonishment of all, the result was equal.

The resulting shockwave reverberated through the land, splitting it asunder and sweeping the sky clear of clouds.

The sheer scale of their battle was awe-inspiring, a testament to the immense power they both possessed.

Yet, this was only the beginning.

Blow after thunderous blow, Wang Jian and Emperor Wang clashed repeatedly, each collision releasing shockwaves that reshaped the very landscape.

Embracing the Solar Flames that cloaked him, Wang Jian stood firm against the enhanced might of Emperor Wangʼs Gold Element-infused attacks.

Throughout their rapid exchanges, Emperor Wang leveraged his newfound speed advantage, launching a rapid barrage of strikes aimed at exploiting any vulnerability. But Wang Jianʼs reflexes were nothing short of exceptional, as he adeptly countered and deflected each attack, a testament to his skill and combat prowess.

After a series of intense clashes, Wang Jianʼs strategy shifted abruptly. Instead of engaging Emperor Wang head-on, he chose to maintain a cautious distance, employing his newfound approach to launch potent blasts of flames at his opponent.

Emperor Wang, infused with the power of the Gold Element, deftly deflected each fiery assault with swift strikes of his axe, causing the ground to erupt in a fiery display. Yet, amidst this fiery spectacle, a subtle change occurred that caught even Emperor Wang off-guard.

From an unexpected angle, a fireball hurtled towards Emperor Wang, its trajectory guided by Wang Jianʼs spatial manipulation, rendering even the Emperorʼs swift reflexes momentarily inadequate. This maneuver showcased Wang Jianʼs versatility and cunning employment of his spatial abilities.

A hint of unease appeared on Emperor Wangʼs countenance. He admitted with a firm resolve, ”Youʼve managed to keep pace with me thus far, I grant you that. But this duel concludes here.”

With a decisive hand-seal, Emperor Wangʼs expression radiated confidence. ”Radiant Golden-Lightning Domain!”

In an instant, an awe-inspiring transformation overcame the battleground. A radiant and crackling domain, a fusion of golden and lightning energies, surged forth from Emperor Wang. It was an awe-inspiring technique that hinted at his true prowess and set the stage for the next phase of their clash.
