Turns Out, I’m In A Villain Clan!

Chapter 757: A Reunion After Three Years

The figure standing between Ye Tianxuan and Bai Zihan was none other than Xi Yu.

Ye Tianxuan immediately recognized her.

After all, Xi Yu was one of the Elders of the Flowing Moon Sect.

His expression became somewhat bewildered.

"You... Why did you stop me?"

Xi Yu calmly looked at him.

"Saintess’s order."

"Saintess?"

Ye Tianxuan frowned.

"Which one?"

The Flowing Moon Sect had three Saintesses.

However, Ye Tianxuan remembered that he had no grudge against any of them.

So why would one of the Saintesses order Xi Yu to stop him?

As for why Xi Yu and the other members of the Flowing Moon Sect were here—

There was no need to guess.

Ye Tianxuan was the one who had invited them.

After gathering with the Top Clans, he was planning to meet with the major sects as well.

However, what he didn’t understand was why the Flowing Moon Sect would interfere when he was about to attack Bai Zihan.

Before Ye Tianxuan could ask anything else, a group of figures slowly walked out from behind Xi Yu.

The moment they appeared, the surrounding cultivators immediately turned their attention toward them.

At the front of the group stood a beautiful young woman.

Her appearance was breathtaking.

Her long hair flowed down her back, and her expression was calm and indifferent.

She carried an elegant and ethereal aura that made her seem almost like a celestial being who had descended into the mortal world.

Ye Tianxuan’s eyes narrowed slightly.

He didn’t recognize her. But he was immediately certain of her identity.

Among the three Saintesses of the Flowing Moon Sect, he knew the other two very well.

Therefore, if this woman wasn’t either of them, then there was only one possibility.

The newly crowned Saintess.

Ye Tianxuan’s expression immediately changed.

"So you’re the newly crowned Saintess of the Flowing Moon Sect."

The young woman calmly looked at him.

Ye Tianxuan smiled.

"I’ve heard many things about you."

He cupped his hands.

"Greetings, Saintess."

Then, he smiled slightly.

"You’re even more beautiful than the rumors claim."

The surrounding cultivators of the Central Continent also looked at the newly crowned Saintess with curiosity.

Many of them had never seen her before.

After all, she rarely left the Flowing Moon Sect. However, they had heard countless rumors about her.

Most of those rumors revolved around two things.

Her terrifying talent.

And her astonishing beauty.

She was said to possess one of the most extraordinary cultivation talents in the Flowing Moon Sect’s history.

And now, they finally had the opportunity to see her with their own eyes.

Several cultivators couldn’t help but secretly marvel at her appearance.

"She really is as beautiful as the rumors say."

"More importantly, I heard that she is barely 20 and already in the Immortal Realm."

"Damn! The Flowing Moon Sect’s newly crowned Saintess is indeed extraordinary."

Whispers spread throughout the surroundings.

The newly crowned Saintess remained completely calm.

She didn’t seem to care about the attention of the surrounding cultivators.

Her beautiful eyes simply gazed at Bai Zihan.

Bai Xinyue’s beautiful eyes remained fixed on Bai Zihan.

He was still standing there completely composed.

It was as if Ye Tianxuan’s attack had never happened.

A Golden Immortal had just attacked him. Yet Bai Zihan didn’t seem to care in the slightest.

He didn’t even bother to react.

Seeing this, Bai Xinyue’s eyes flickered slightly.

Her memories suddenly flashed back.

She remembered a little boy.

A small boy who had once been considered incompetent but incredibly cheerful.

Then, he became a boy who was looked down upon by countless people.

A boy who had carried resentment and hatred toward almost everyone around him.

But that boy had changed. Going from trash to someone who everyone looks up to within a year.

And then Three years later, he seemed to have become the Clan Leader of the Bai Clan.

A powerful existence who stood at the very top of the Desolate Heaven Empire.

Calm and confident.

Everything seemed to be under his control.

Bai Xinyue couldn’t help but stare at him for several moments.

Three years!

To her, three years was both a very long time and an incredibly short one.

Ever since Yue Wushuang had taken her to the Flowing Moon Sect, she had done almost nothing except cultivate.

She had devoted herself completely to cultivation.

With the inheritance of Empress Feilian, her cultivation speed had been astonishing.

Her strength had increased at an unbelievable rate.

And eventually, she had even become one of the three Saintesses of the Flowing Moon Sect.

Her position gave her immense authority within the sect.

She possessed strength that the Bai Clan’s former Bai Xinyue could never have imagined.

Yet despite everything that had happened, when she saw Bai Zihan again—

She still remembered that little boy.

She still remembered when Bai Zihan bullied her.

She still remembered when Bai Zihan protected her.

Whether it was hatred or love, when she saw Bai Zihan’s face again, she felt extremely happy.

Bai Zihan also looked at Bai Xinyue.

Three years had passed.

She had clearly changed quite a bit.

Her cultivation had increased tremendously, and her entire temperament had become more mature.

Yet she still seemed the same as Bai Xinyue in his memories.

However, there was one thing that had changed the most.

Her eyes.

Bai Zihan stared at her quietly.

Three years ago, her eyes had been filled with hatred.

There had been resentment.

Pain and a deep hatred toward him.

But now, that hatred was no longer the only thing in her eyes.

There seemed to be something else.

Something Bai Zihan couldn’t quite understand.

Bai Zihan’s eyes flickered slightly.

He didn’t know what had happened to her during these three years. But it seemed like she hadn’t been slacking off.

"Oh!"

Empress Feilian’s voice was filled with excitement.

"She has reached the Earth Immortal Realm!"

There was obvious happiness in her voice.

"As expected of my heir!"

Empress Feilian was genuinely delighted.

After all, Bai Xinyue was the heir she had personally chosen, though it was mostly because of fate.

Otherwise, going solely by the trial results, it was clearly Bai Zihan who cleared it first.

"Anyways, it seems like I haven’t made a mistake."

Seeing Bai Xinyue reach the Earth Immortal Realm from the Spirit Severing Realm in three years naturally made her extremely proud.

Even she couldn’t help but feel amazed by it.

"Not bad."

Empress Feilian’s voice carried a hint of satisfaction.

"She has indeed lived up to my expectations."

Bai Zihan remained silent.

His gaze stayed on Bai Xinyue.

Earth Immortal Realm!

Considering her age, that cultivation was indeed extremely impressive.

And with the inheritance of Empress Feilian, her Dao Bone, and Phoenix Physique, her future was clearly even more extraordinary.

With the Flowing Moon Sect’s teachings behind her as well, even Bai Zihan wasn’t sure whether he could win against her.

At least, he would need to use his trump cards if he had to win against her.

Bai Xinyue’s eyes met his.

For a moment, neither of them spoke.

The surrounding cultivators continued discussing among themselves.

However, neither Bai Zihan nor Bai Xinyue seemed to hear them.

Three years!

It was not a particularly long period of time.

Yet it had been long enough to have changed many things.

Bai Zihan had become the Clan Leader of the Bai Clan.

And Bai Xinyue had become the Saintess of the Flowing Moon Sect.

Bai Zihan finally smiled faintly.

"It has been a long time."

His voice was calm.

Bai Xinyue’s beautiful eyes flickered.

A faint smile appeared on her face as well.

"Yes!"

Her voice was soft.

"It has been three years."

Bai Zihan looked at Bai Xinyue for a moment.

"How have you been these past three years?"

Bai Xinyue’s beautiful eyes flickered.

A faint smile appeared on her face.

"How have I been?"

She repeated his question softly.

Then, her smile gradually became somewhat mysterious.

"I’ve been waiting."

Bai Xinyue looked directly into his eyes.

"For three years..."

Her voice remained calm.

"I’ve been waiting for the day I could take revenge on you."

The surrounding cultivators who were close enough to hear their conversation immediately became curious.

Take revenge?

On Bai Zihan?

Several people quietly glanced between the two.

By now, from their conversation, everyone knew that Bai Zihan and Bai Xinyue knew each other, and there already seemed to be some kind of grudge between them.

Bai Zihan, however, remained completely calm.

He simply stared at Bai Xinyue.

He couldn’t tell whether she was telling the truth or merely saying those words because of their past.

After all, three years ago, she had indeed hated him.

And while he had returned her Dao Bone, it was true that she had been exiled from the Bai Clan and suffered.

He had also bullied her when they were younger.

So just because he had returned her Dao Bone didn’t mean that their conflict had died down.

So perhaps she was telling the truth, or perhaps she was just saying it for the sake of it.

Regardless, it didn’t matter.

Bai Zihan’s lips curled into a faint sneer.

"Talk about something you can actually achieve."

His tone was completely calm.

"Don’t always think about these unrealistic dreams."
