Eternal Villain: I can enslave Reality!



"A reason to keep me alive?" The woman stuttered. "I-i can pay you for my life! I have money!"

As the woman finished, she felt Xu Shan's grip tighten around her throat. It was clear that he wasn't convinced and this was his way of warning her. 

Gasping for breath, the woman desperately tried to gather her thoughts. She racked her brain for anything else that could convince Xu Shan not to kill her. Because from his expressions, it didn't appear as if he was joking. 

"I-i can offer you my body!" As she was unable to think of something, she blurted out whatever came to her mind. 

Her eyes closed as tears trickled down the corner of her eyes. She wasn't someone important. She only had a little bit of money that she had gathered as her life savings but even that wasn't convincing. The only other thing that she had left was her body. 

Although she hated her immensely for this and was scared, she still went through and offered herself. 

Xu Shan watched the woman struggle to offer anything worthwhile. He didn't care about money. He already had lots of money that he received from the City Lord. As for her body, he wasn't the least bit interested in it. 

He thought that she could maybe offer something worthwhile his time, only to be disappointed. 

"What do you know about this crystal?" Xu Shan asked the woman, raising the pendant he had taken from the dead leader of the beasts. 

At the same time, he released the throat of the woman. Killing her was indeed much swifter, but it was also very bothersome, especially since she was of more use alive. The only reason he threatened her was to see if she had anything worthwhile to offer. 

The woman coughed and gasped for air, grateful for the sudden release of pressure around her throat. She took a moment to compose herself, wiping away the tears from her cheeks as she tried to steady her trembling voice.

Her mind was still very clouded, especially since Xu Shan released her after she offered him her body. She didn't know if that was his intention. Did he really accept her offer? Was he really after her body?

"I-it is my first time. P-please be gentle..." She stuttered, as she slowly started removing her top. 

"What the...?" Xu Shan froze for a moment, before flicking the forehead of the young lady. 

"Ouch!" The woman rubbed her forehead, groaning in pain. 

"If you waste my time any more, then next time it'll be a dagger and not just my finger," Xu Shan warned the woman. "Tell me everything you know about this crystal."

The woman rubbed her eyes that were somewhat blurry. She wondered if he really was not after her body? He only wanted her to answer his questions? Or did he want to leave her body for later at night when he was free? Many thoughts confused her. 

However, for now, she shifted her attention to the pendant in Xu Shan's hands. She tried taking the pendant from him to see from closer, but he grabbed her wrist, stopping her. 

The pendant had no effect on his mind. But he knew that the woman was mentally very weak. 

"It can control your mind. Don't touch it," he warned the woman who was even more stunned. 

"Control someone's mind? Where did you get this? Don't tell me you got it from the..."

"From the beasts," Xu Shan finished her sentence. "Someone was using this to control them."

The woman grimaced. She observed the pendant from closer without touching it. Sometimes, she was even moved in Xu Shan's arms, not realizing where she was. 

She was completely immersed in observing the pendant in his hand from every direction. 

"It can't be. This is impossible!" the woman exclaimed, taken aback.

Xu Shan looked at her in surprise. He didn't have much hope from her, but it appeared as if she knew what it was. 

"It's from the Royal Family!" the woman exclaimed. "But what would it be doing in a place like this?"

"Royal Family?" Xu Shan questioned, his curiosity piqued. 

The woman nodded, her eyes glimmering with a mix of shock and surprise. "Yes, the pendant is a symbol of the royal lineage. It has been passed down through the generations as a treasured heir. I can't be wrong!"

"A mind controlling pendant was passed down from generations?" Xu Shan found it hard to believe. If that was the case, someone would've noticed long ago. 

"This shouldn't have had mind controlling abilities! It was an ordinary gem! I remember seeing this in the portraits of the King! No Ancient King is ever portrayed without this Pendant!" The woman stated. 

She was really into history. Seeing a pendant that held such historical importance, she was so excited that she couldn't even control herself. This was a precious part of history which could be the most expensive item ever sold if it showed up at auction!

In her excitement, she reached out her hand, snatching the pendant from Xu Shan's hand, holding it tightly in her hand 

However, as soon as she held the pendant, her expressions turned stale. 

"You killed my precious pets!" Her entire visage changed, as her voice turned heavy, as if someone else was speaking through her. "I don't know who you are, but I will find you!"

"Why wait for later? Why not come to me right now? Unless you're scared?" Xu Shan asked. He didn't expect that the owner of the pendant would be able to talk through humans they controlled. 

He wasn't even sure if the person who was speaking was related to the Divine Queen or someone who worked under her. Was this trap of beasts really set up for him? He was sure it wasn't that simple. 

The Divine Queen should've been busy arranging that formation in the Royal City. She wouldn't be wasting time here. 

The person on the other side didn't reply. However, Xu Shan felt a sense of danger at the moment. He had a really bad feeling about this. He jumped back, noticing the pendant shining brightly.
