Life of a Villain

"NOOOOOOOOOO"

Ma Chan screamed, and the glow in his eyes faded.

He was lying on the ground, his entire body drenched in sweat, and his eyes seemed listless as he gazed at the sky.

His teeth chattered, his body shivered, and the luster returned to his eyes as he scanned around to find himself lying in the middle of the courtyard.

He sat on the ground, his mind racing over the scene he had witnessed.

"What was that?" He muttered as he stood up.

"Was that my fate?" His gaze was drawn back to the sky, where streaks of cloud drifted in between the blue sky.

"My eyes. Yes, it was my eyes that showed me my future." He muttered again, and the image of Andy killing Su Xin flashed before his eyes.

"N...I can't let that happen. That man will kill my wife. How can I let it happen? I have to tell her. I have to save her." He muttered frantically as he dashed towards the door.

His steps slowed as his mind cleared. He forgot about the man. He was still with her. He must meet her when she is alone.

He has to take her away from that man.

He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and his mind raced with thoughts.

His eyes opened after a while, and he was filled with determination as he left his courtyard.

.....

Ma Chan appeared near mountains, his eyes scanning the area to see that many outer disciples were patrolling, while a few of them were having a conversation with one another.

He hid his presence as he listened to their conversation.

"Who would have imagined we'd be patrolling near this mountain," one disciple said as he cleaned his sword.

"It's better than doing those odd jobs. To be honest, we are fortunate to be guarding this mountain. I heard that the new Prime Disciple is from the higher world, and if he is impressed by us, he may give us some pointers and cultivation resources from that world." Another disciple said as he looked at the first disciple.

"But do you think that Ma Chan is stronger than the new Prime Disciple?" The first disciple asked.

"I'm not sure, but I doubt it. Remember that the new Prime Disciple comes from a higher world. It is true that he would be stronger than Ma Chan. Even though Ma Chan is strong, he is from our world, and how could he compare to him, and haven't you seen how our New Prime Disciple threatened Ma Chan?"

"Yes, I also think that Ma Chan is weaker than him and, by the way, what is the name of our New Prime Disciple?"

"I heard it's An Di. I don't think we have any An family in Black Dragon Continent."

While those disciples were chit-chatting, Ma Chan's face became strange, but he shook his head slightly and cleared his thoughts, and he stood there like a rock, waiting for Andy to leave.

Ma Chan remained motionless for the entire day. But then he heard footsteps approaching the mountains. His eyes drifted to the source to see that Elder was approaching the mountains.

His heart skipped a beat, and he held his breath as he made his presence more inconspicuous.

His eyes were fixed on the Elder all this time until he disappeared from his sight and he heaved a silent sigh.

His wait came to an end when he noticed a movement near the mountains. His gaze was drawn to the man in the black robe, his silver hair drooping down to his waist, and his face hidden behind a half mask. Ma Chan's body shuddered as those red eyes flashed through his mind.

At that time, he felt as if he had fallen into Hell. He'd never forget that feeling.

But his heart skipped a beat when he noticed Andy stopping in his tracks and looking in his direction. As if he hadn't noticed anything, he shook his head and began following the Elder.

Ma Chan exhaled as they both left his sight.

Then his gaze was drawn to the disciples who were patrolling the mountains. His lips curled up, and he disappeared from this place.

The disciples had no idea that someone had slipped past their guard and into the mountain.

Ma Chan's steps came to a halt and his heart thumped as his gaze was drawn to a woman in green robes, her hair covering half of her face as she tended to a flower in the gardens.

His heart raced as he unknowingly walked towards her. Even if he tried, he couldn't forget her face. She would be his woman in the future. She would be his wife.

As if she felt his presence, she turned around to look at him. His heart stopped for a moment and then ached when he saw a frown on her face.

He felt that his presence disgusted her. He took a deep breath to calm himself, and his lips curled into a smile.

"Why are you here?" Su Xin asked, her eyes locked on him. His presence made her feel very uneasy.

"I...I came here to see you," Ma Chan stuttered, but he took another deep breath and his eyes became serious for a moment before softening as he looked at her.

"See me?" Su Xin asked, her brows arched.

Ma Chan nodded. "Yes, from the moment I saw you, I knew that you and I were meant to be together. I know you don't know who I am, but I'll tell you the biggest secret I haven't told anyone in this world."

But Su Xin interrupted, "I don't want to know anything, would you please this place?"

"Please, listen to me. I know you won't believe me, but I can make you cultivate. I know you're a mortal, but my master will find a way to turn you into a cultivator. That man is not right for you."

"Your Master?" Su Xin's eyes narrowed.

Ma Chan hurriedly nodded. "Yes, my master. He is an unfathomable cultivator from the upp... No, you don't know much about this world. But I'll tell you one thing: I'm not from this world. There is a different world out there. I came from the upper world, and my master is so powerful that he could destroy this world with the flick of his hand."

"Really?" Su Xin's face lit up with a mischievous smile.

"Yes," Ma Chan nodded, and hope ignited in his heart when he saw that smile.

"What is the name of your master?" Su Xin asked again.

Ma Chan was stunned for a moment, but he replied, "Lo... Long Shan. It's Long Shan."

Su Xin's brow furrowed, but her head ached when she heard the name "Long Shan?"

But her thoughts were interrupted by his next words, "I know you won't believe me, but I have the power to see the future, and I saw that you and I would be married in the future, and that man would kill you."

But before he could think anything, all the hairs on his body stood up and his heart screamed of danger as he heard words from behind him.

"Oh Really?"
