Great Villain: Starting by Humiliating the Son of the Heavenly Fate-Chapter 307: The End of Gu Ran

"No! That’s not true!" Gu Ran yelled, refusing to accept it.

"That powerful person was clearly a woman! She stopped the demon invasion by killing the Peak-stage Dao Palace realm demon!"

"And you! You want my bloodline for your own selfish reasons! You’re just like a devil!"

"No, you’re worse than the demons themselves!"

With deep anger, Gu Ran shouted, his voice hoarse and full of pain. His eyes were bloodshot, and veins popped on his forehead. The look in his eyes showed he wanted to destroy Jiang Chen a thousand times over.

A sharp voice responded, "That’s nonsense!"

"You filthy coward, how dare you insult our Holy Son!"

"Our Holy Son defeated the Transcendent realm powerhouse Long Tianlu from the demon race, who invaded the Everflowing Truth Central Domain. And on Blackwood Island, Mo Wutian, another Peak-stage Dao Palace realm demon, met the same fate."

"All you’ve done is try to ambush other human cultivators and take their lives for power."

"How many times have you secretly attacked us since you first came to the inheritance peak?"

"You’re nothing but a coward, a disgrace! How dare you slander the Holy Son of the Purple Heaven Holy Land? Absolutely shameful! Hah, you should be ashamed!"

Elders from the Purple Heaven Holy Land spoke one after another, their voices full of contempt, each one more insulting than the last.

Shocked voices filled the air as people reacted to the revelation.

"What?! How is that possible?!"

"So the powerful figure is actually the Holy Son of the Purple Heaven Holy Land? Amazing!"

"Facing a Transcendent realm powerhouse is one thing, but defeating one? That’s unbelievable!"

"I heard the Transcendent realm demon from the demon race had fallen to the Dao Palace realm, but to think he was actually killed? I can’t even imagine it."

The cultivators from the Golden Proud Cult were visibly shocked.

While they had heard about the events in the Everflowing Truth Central Domain, the full details were unclear. Only now did the full story come to light.

The young talent before them, the one who defeated the leader of the demon race and stopped their first attack, was actually the Holy Son of the Purple Heaven Holy Land!

Gu Ran’s voice shook with disbelief. "No! This can’t be true!"

"You? The Holy Son of the Purple Heaven Holy Land?"

"And you killed a Transcendent realm demon?"

"It’s all lies! You’re the leader of the Heavenly Gu Society. You’ve been after my bloodline from the beginning!" Gu Ran glared at Jiang Chen, his eyes burning with rage. He shouted, veins bulging in his neck, his whole body shaking with fury.

Jiang Chen raised an eyebrow. "Heavenly Gu Society?" He smirked. "That’s just a childish trick."

"While I’m curious about your bloodline’s power," he said calmly, "everything I’ve done, no matter how hard it might be for some to believe, has been for self-preservation."

Gu Ran’s voice stuttered. "Self... self-preservation?"

"You, a Dao Palace realm cultivator who defeated an injured Transcendent realm great powerhouse, feel threatened by me?" His eyes widened in disbelief, struggling to grasp the situation.

The members of the Golden Proud Cult and the Purple Heaven Holy Land were just as stunned as Gu Ran. After all, Jiang Chen was at the top of the Dao Palace realm, while Gu Ran was only a beginner in the Inquiring Journey realm.

Jiang Chen interrupted, his voice sharp. "Enough talking." He glanced at Gu Ran with disdain and said coldly, "I’ll send you on your way now."

"What?!" Gu Ran’s eyes widened in fear. "You plan to... kill me?"

He took a step back, his voice desperate. "Dare you! If you kill me, you’ll never get the Endless Dark Blood Moon Bloodline!"

In Gu Ran’s mind, Jiang Chen had always wanted his rare Endless Dark Blood Moon Bloodline.

He believed that to obtain a pure Endless Dark Blood Moon Bloodline, he would have to willingly offer it. Any forced extraction would ruin its quality.

Gu Ran thought this was why Jiang Chen hadn’t killed him directly. Instead, Jiang Chen had subtly hindered his progress, hiding behind the Heavenly Gu Society to gain his trust.

This belief had shaped everything Gu Ran thought about Jiang Chen’s intentions.

But now, with Jiang Chen’s threat hanging over him, everything seemed wrong. It didn’t fit with what Gu Ran had believed about Jiang Chen’s goals.

Jiang Chen laughed, shaking his head in amusement. "Who told you the Endless Dark Blood Moon Bloodline was my main goal?"

His true intention had always been simple: Gu Ran’s death.

"No, please!" Desperation filled Gu Ran’s voice. "I’ll give you the Endless Dark Blood Moon Bloodline! I’ll surrender it willingly!"

"Swear you won’t kill me, and it’s yours. The whole, perfect Endless Dark Blood Moon Bloodline!"

"Please, just spare my life!" Fear consumed Gu Ran as he tried to stay in the air, but his legs buckled and he fell, his face twisted with disbelief and terror.

Once a protagonist blessed by Heavenly Fate, Gu Ran was now completely vulnerable. Jiang Chen’s constant attacks had broken his pride and arrogance. He was ready to throw away any sense of dignity if it meant a chance to survive.

The man before them was no longer the proud figure he once was—like a mighty oak that had been twisted and broken by the storm, standing alone and powerless.

"Gu Ran, your time in this world is over." Jiang Chen’s voice was cold, a stark contrast to his calm expression, as he looked down at the trembling Gu Ran. With a deliberate gesture, he raised a hand, pointing at him.

Gu Ran’s scream of "No–" rang out in the air.

But in an instant, he was reduced to a fine mist of blood, vanishing without a trace.

[Ding! Congratulations on successfully killing the protagonist, Gu Ran!]

[Ding! You’ve been awarded 300,000 Villain Value points!]

[Ding! You’ve gained 29,688 Black Heavenly Fate Value points!]

The three system alerts echoed in Jiang Chen’s sea of consciousness.

It’s finally over, Jiang Chen breathed a sigh of relief, a satisfied smile spreading across his face.

During his confrontations with Gu Ran, he had been careful, always mindful of the powerful backlash from Heavenly Fate. Pushing too far could have led to irreversible consequences.

But with Gu Ran’s death, the threat of Heavenly Fate’s punishment was temporarily gone, at least until the next protagonist appeared.

Suddenly, from the spot where Gu Ran had fallen, a bright red light emerged. It quickly formed a beam and shot directly into Jiang Chen’s forehead, merging with him seamlessly.

[Ding! The Heaven-Defying Fate Changer, Endless Dark Blood Moon Bloodline, has been acquired. Would you like to use it?]

Upon hearing the system notification, Jiang Chen summoned the system panel. In the center of it floated a shimmering droplet of dark red blood—the Bloodline Power of the Endless Dark Blood Moon Bloodline.

It’s my sixth Heaven-Defying Fate Changer! Jiang Chen thought, thrilled. System, use it now!

[Ding! Initiating fusion with the Endless Dark Blood Moon Bloodline!]

As the system spoke, Jiang Chen felt a powerful transformation spreading through every cell of his body. Even his soul seemed to undergo a deep, fundamental shift.

Moments later, another system prompt rang out.

[Ding! Fusion with the Endless Dark Blood Moon Bloodline complete!]

[Ding! Your new Heaven-Defying Fate Changer is of the bloodline type. It is compatible with the Eternal Boundless Body and has been perfectly integrated. It merged with the Death Calamity True Dragon bloodline, extracting its essence and discarding any impurities!]

Thanks to the system’s precise handling, the merging of the bloodlines had been flawless.

Jiang Chen marveled at the immense power now coursing through him. Such incredible, mysterious power! He had never felt so strong.

Now, he had the unique ability to kill and absorb the cultivation bases of others. And with the Wordless Heavenly Jade, each kill would grant even greater rewards. He could use each life taken to simultaneously strengthen both his cultivation methods and his cultivation base!
