Turns Out, I’m In A Villain Clan! - Chapter 511 Heavenly Vow?
Chapter 511 Heavenly Vow?
Chong Sheng fell silent.
At this moment-
He was left with only two choices.
His life or his technique.
His gaze flickered.
If Bai Zihan truly let him go after obtaining the technique…
Then it would be worth it.
A fair trade. Not to mention, he could easily take revenge once he gained strength.
So compared to his life, a Saint-Grade Technique wasn’t worth it.
But Chong Sheng’s eyes darkened slightly.
He didn’t believe that Bai Zihan would keep his word.
How could he easily trust just words?
A person like him-
Who had stood at the peak as a Demonic Cultivator ruler-
Would easily trust someone’s words?
Trust was the most useless thing in this world.
He had even been betrayed by his most trusted person, so how could he trust someone like Bai Zihan?
From everything he had seen, Bai Zihan was not someone who would let him off just because of a few words.
Not someone who would show mercy.
But right now, he had no other choice.
He could only try to negotiate.
Chong Sheng took a slow breath.
Then he spoke carefully.
“Young Master Bai…”
His tone was cautious.
“If I hand over this technique…”
He paused slightly.
“…how can I be sure that you will let me leave safely?”
A faint glint flashed in his eyes.
“Why don’t Young Master Bai make a Heavenly Vow?”
A Heavenly Vow!
Once broken, the consequences would be catastrophic.
Chong Sheng stared intently at Bai Zihan.
This was his only assurance.
If Bai Zihan refused, he would rather gamble everything and fight to the death.
Bai Zihan looked at him quietly.
(Heavenly Vow?)
Others might be afraid of breaking it, but him?
He is already an enemy of Heaven, so how can he be afraid of it?
He smiled.
“Alright!”
The answer came without hesitation.
Chong Sheng froze for a split second.
(So easily?)
Before he could think further, Bai Zihan raised his hand slightly. His expression turned solemn.
Then-
He spoke.
“I, Bai Zihan…”
His voice echoed faintly, as if resonating with the heavens.
“…swear to the Heavenly Dao-“
“If I harm Chong Sheng after receiving the technique…”
A brief pause.
“may my cultivation shatter, my Dao heart collapse, and my soul face Heavenly Tribulation.”
The moment the vow was completed, Chong Sheng’s pupils shrank slightly.
(He really doesn’t have any intention of killing me?)
Thinking how easily Bai Zihan made the vow, Chong Sheng felt that perhaps Bai Zihan was never after his life and only the technique.
This also made sense, as he previously said, there is no grudge between them.
Moreover, Bai Zihan wasn’t a resident of the Falling Star Empire, so what did the Quan Clan’s fall have to do with him?
But he had always felt that Bai Zihan was after his life, which was now dismissed after Bai Zihan made the vow.
A heavy weight that had been pressing on his heart finally eased slightly.
Chong Sheng exhaled slowly.
Then, with visible reluctance, he took out another jade slip.
His fingers lingered on it for a moment.
As if unwilling to let go.
Then he tossed it toward Bai Zihan.
“This is the technique.”
His voice was low.
Suppressing the unwillingness within.
Bai Zihan caught it effortlessly. His gaze swept over the jade slip briefly.
A faint smile appeared on his lips.
Satisfied.
Chong Sheng watched him carefully.
Bai Zihan lowered his gaze to the jade slip.
His sense swept into it.
In an instant-
Countless lines of profound, obscure characters flowed into his mind.
A Saint-Grade Technique!
“So this is it…”
Shadow Void Phantom Body!
A technique that allowed the user’s body to blur into a shadow-like state.
Partial intangibility.
Attacks would pass through like striking a phantom.
As for the requirement of needing a special physique, it was a lie made up by
Chong Sheng.
However, to some extent there was some extent.
Only those with compatibility toward shadow, void, or similar attributes could
unleash its true potential.
Bai Zihan’s lips curled slightly.
Even without the proper constitution, it was already extraordinary.
But with the right compatibility-
One could remain in that shadow-like state for extended periods.
Nearly untouchable.
A true life-saving divine art.
And for Bai Zihan-
There was no incompatibility.
His physique…
Had long surpassed the limits of ordinary classifications.
He felt that with his Primordial Chaos Body, no matter the technique, it could
easily adapt to it.
This technique might also work perfectly.
With this, even facing an Immortal Ascension Realm cultivator…
Killing him would become exceedingly difficult.
A faint smile appeared on his lips.
“Great!”
He said in excitement.
Across from him, Chong Sheng’s heart tightened.
He suppressed the lingering unease in his chest.
Then quickly spoke.
“Young Master Bai…”
His tone carried a trace of urgency.
“Now that you have confirmed the technique…”
“Can I leave?”
He wanted to leave immediately.
The longer he stayed here, the more uneasy he felt.
This person…
Everything about Bai Zihan made his instincts scream danger.
He needed to get away.
As far as possible.
As fast as possible.
Chong Sheng stared at Bai Zihan.
Bai Zihan did not answer immediately.
He simply stood there- Holding the jade slip in his hand.
His gaze lingered on it for a brief moment longer.
Then-
He slowly lifted his head.
His eyes landed on Chong Sheng.
And he smiled.
But this time, there was something different in that smile.
Chong Sheng’s heart suddenly tightened.
A bad premonition surged within him.
“… Young Master Bai?”
He forced his voice to remain steady.
But the unease was already spreading.
Bai Zihan casually put away the jade slip.
Then took a step forward.
Yet it made Chong Sheng instinctively retreat half a step back.
“You want to leave?”
Bai Zihan asked playfully.
But to Chong Sheng- It sounded like a death sentence.
His pupils shrank slightly.
Something was wrong.
Very wrong.
“You… you already made a Heavenly Vow!”
Chong Sheng’s voice rose unconsciously.
A trace of panic finally surfaced.
“You swore to the Heavenly Dao! If you harm me, your cultivation will shatter!
Your Dao heart will collapse!”
His breathing became slightly uneven.
“You dare break it?!”
The atmosphere fell silent.
Bai Zihan stopped walking.
Then-
He chuckled.
A low, almost amused sound.
“Break it?”
He repeated softly.
Then he looked at Chong Sheng-
As if he had just heard something ridiculous.
“I will! So what? What can Heaven do?”
Chong Sheng’s pupils trembled slightly.
Even in his previous life as Supreme Immortal, he wouldn’t dare break Heavenly
Vow.
A Heavenly Vow was not something that can be taken lightly.
It wasn’t some childish promise.
It was a contract.
A binding law witnessed by the Heavenly Dao itself.
Once broken-
The consequences were real.
Absolute and Unforgiving.
Even those in the Immortal Realm were not spared.
No-
The stronger one was…
The more terrifying the punishment.
The worst case was death while the best case scenario was becoming a cripple.
Chong Sheng slowly lifted his gaze.
His eyes locked onto Bai Zihan.
No matter how arrogant…
No matter how ignorant…
He refused to believe that Bai Zihan didn’t understand this.
“You…”
His voice was slightly hoarse.
“You should know what you just swore.”
His tone turned heavier.
“Breaking a Heavenly Vow isn’t something you can afford!”
“It will shatter your Dao heart… invite endless tribulations… even sever your
path to immortality.”
A faint tremor passed through his voice.
“You already got what you wanted.”
His eyes sharpened.
“I gave you my most precious technique. A Saint-Grade Technique!”
His voice grew firmer.
“Why risk everything for this? Why throw away your future… for me?”
His gaze bore into Bai Zihan.
Trying-
For the last time-
To make him reconsider.
To make him stop.
But-
Bai Zihan simply stood there.
Silent!
Not a single ripple in his expression. No hesitation.
No conflict.
Nothing.
Just calm indifference.
As if everything Chong Sheng said meant absolutely nothing.
Bai Zihan’s lips slowly curled upward.
A faint smirk appeared on his face.
He looked at Chong Sheng- As if looking at a fool.
Chong Sheng’s expression stiffened. Bai Zihan tilted his head slightly.
Did Chong Sheng really think-
That someone like him would let a person like him go?
A reincarnated expert.
A former Supreme Immortal.
A walking calamity wrapped in human skin.
Too dangerous. Far too dangerous.
Letting him live…
Would be no different from planting a blade in his own back.
Even if-
Even if he did let him live-
Then Chong Sheng would have to be crippled.
Reduced to something that could never threaten him again.
Or-
Placed firmly under his control.
Otherwise…
Who knew what such a person might become in the future?
Bai Zihan exhaled softly.
“As for the Heavenly Vow…”
He chuckled.
He made it because it was useful. Otherwise, how could he have gotten a
Saint-Grade Technique from Chong Sheng.
His fingers lightly tapped the jade slip he had just stored away.
Chong Sheng’s pupils shrank violently.
“You-!”
Understanding dawned.
Too late!
Bai Zihan never intended to honor his Heavenly Vow.
Bai Zihan’s gaze turned colder.
Anyways, going after someone favored by Heaven is already a taboo.
So what’s one more?
Killing Intent flared from Bai Zihan and it seems like he is finally going to take
this seriously.
“Now, time to deal with you.”
