After Defying the Villain’s Fate for Nine Lifetimes, the Heroines Turn Mad!

Chapter 169



Jiang Chen thought this Martial Emperor was not only crazy but also sick.

Admitting defeat was one thing, but to take him along to defy the heavens? Is that a joke?!

If he really defied the heavens, how could he ascend?

If the Martial Emperor succeeded in defying the heavens before his ascension, his plans would definitely be ruined.

The more he thought about it, the more Jiang Chen felt a headache coming on.

The plot of this life was truly absurd. The key point was that he couldn’t outright refuse Martial Emperor’s “invitation.”

Otherwise, if the Martial Emperor realized that he was not someone who wanted to defy the heavens, he might just say, “Jiang Chen, die!”

Helplessly, Jiang Chen had to start bluffing again: “Defying the heavens must be done gradually. It must be low-key, and haste makes waste. You should sleep for a hundred years, and after a hundred years, we will break the heavens together!”

“A hundred years?” Martial Emperor raised his thick eyebrows, finding it quite reasonable.

He had truly fought against the heavens and knew its might.

Moreover, a hundred years for a former great emperor was like a fleeting moment, not a big deal at all.

But why should he sleep for a hundred years? Wouldn’t it be fine to stay awake?

Now that the Mu Kui personality had deviated, he had to keep an eye on it until he proved his imperial status. Only then the two personalities could merge again before breaking the sky in one go.

“You’ve been greatly influenced by the heavens. Only by letting Mu Kui grow can you achieve the grand plan!” Seeing through Martial Emperor’s thoughts, Jiang Chen added.

Martial Emperor didn’t respond and fell into thought.

Knowing that an emperor was not so easily fooled, Jiang Chen had to change his approach: “If you don’t want to sleep for a hundred years, then sleeping for a few decades is also possible.” Martial Emperor still didn’t respond.

Now, Jiang Chen was getting a headache again. Suddenly, Martial Emperor noticed something strange.

Mu Kui, who had been ceaselessly trying to regain control of the body, had eerily quieted down.

This quietness was not sleep but a state of stagnation.

“Could it be…” Martial Emperor thought of something.

Just as the thought crossed his mind, his eyes suddenly widened, and he stood there, stunned as if he had lost his soul.

This abrupt situation left Jiang Chen completely baffled.

After calling out a couple of times and seeing that Martial Emperor still had no response, he made a run for it.

Halfway through his escape, he ran back and took the unconscious Lin Feng with him.

Although he didn’t know what madness had struck Martial Emperor, Lin Feng was the Son of Destiny.

If Lin Feng were to be killed later, then his tool would be gone.

“Junior Brother, I’ve saved your life again!” Jiang Chen lamented while giving Lin Feng a big thumbs up.

Martial Emperor stood in the void, right above the Jiuyan Sect. He looked up at the sky.

【The Second World】

He furrowed his brow with a sense of anger welling up within him.

But in the end, he suppressed this anger, unlike the last time when he wanted to shatter the three golden characters of 【Second World】.

The reason was simple.

He had acknowledged Jiang Chen, which meant his actions were not controlled by others but were of his own volition.

As such, there was no need to contend with that mysterious force in the universe, especially now that they were “allies.”

The Martial Emperor saw himself again.

To be precise, it was the personality of this life, Mu Kui.

At this moment, Mu Kui also stood in the void, clearly in a daze.

Undoubtedly, this time the mysterious force had pulled both his and Mu Kui’s personalities into the nine cycles of reincarnation together.

Mu Kui also saw the Martial Emperor.

Two personalities with the same appearance, their eyes met.

And then, “Coward!” they cursed at each other simultaneously.

Mu Kui cursed the Martial Emperor because the latter had cast aside all distractions except for the comprehension of martial arts, seeking to defy the heavens.

Little did he know, this was actually the behavior of a coward, afraid of the heavens!

The reason the Martial Emperor cursed Mu Kui was simple.

Always whining and losing face!

“Hmph!”

Both personalities snorted coldly and looked away from each other.

The Martial Emperor sat cross-legged in the air, waiting for the nine cycles of reincarnation to end. Meanwhile, Mu Kui floated around, looking for Jiang Chen.

Soon, Mu Kui found him.

The point in time was not before the start of the second life but decades after Jiang Chen was expelled from his sect.

By then, the Jiang family had been destroyed, and the Jiuyan Sect had been promoted to an Upper Domain sect.

In the Upper Domain, Mu Kui saw Jiang Chen in white and himself.

They met on a cliff. Jiang Chen seemed to be “committing evil,” and the Mu Kui in the scene happened to pass by.

At that time, the Mu Kui in the scene was beginning to unlock his sealed memories and felt a strange sense of discomfort and familiarity with the scene of Jiang Chen committing evil.

It was this feeling that led Mu Kui to greet Jiang Chen.

They chatted idly, all of it meaningless.

Yet, they both felt good about it.

“Mu Kui, remember,” Jiang Chen said before parting.

“In this life, you are Mu Kui, not anyone else. It is Mu Kui who defies the heavens, my once Fourth Junior Brother, and it is Mu Kui.”

Upon hearing this, the Mu Kui in the scene was confused.

But the observing Mu Kui understood.

He knew he was the reincarnation of the Martial Emperor and that the Martial Emperor’s memories had been unlocked, revealing that personality.

Just like now. Two personalities, one body.

In the end, only one personality could be destroyed or they could merge with each other.

Mu Kui was clear that if he accepted the Martial Emperor’s personality, his cultivation and combat power would skyrocket.

But then, would he still be himself?

Mu Kui didn’t fully understand, but he remembered Jiang Chen’s words. As long as Jiang Chen wished it, he would always be Mu Kui!

Next, the retrospective scenes began to change rapidly.

Mu Kui saw Jiang Chen’s tragic death, learned of Jiang Chen’s true purpose, and the truth of this world.

Although these scenes also appeared during the first cycle of reincarnation, at that time, he was suppressed by the Martial Emperor’s personality and saw almost nothing.

The second life came to an abrupt end.

The third life.

The fourth life.

The fifth life.

……

The tenth life.

Without the interference of the Martial Emperor, Mu Kui watched the nine cycles of reincarnation in their entirety.

During this time, he also broke down and wept.

But without exception, after all the emotions passed, what followed was intense anger!

Anger at himself and anger at the heavens!

In this life, Jiang Chen donned black clothes and began to truly commit evil acts.

Mu Kui smiled in relief at this. Because his Eldest Senior Brother truly deserved to live unrestrained and free.

The Martial Emperor felt the same way.

After watching the complete nine cycles of reincarnation, the Martial Emperor made a decision.

He would sleep for a hundred years.

The reason for this was not because he was moved by Jiang Chen’s “goodness,” but because he understood a fact.

After nine lives, Jiang Chen was really experienced in defying the heavens!

Although in this tenth life, Jiang Chen seemed to have given up on defying the heavens, this must be just an illusion!

This is an illusion to confuse the heavenly dao! Just before falling into the nine cycles of reincarnation, Jiang Chen had personally laid out a hundred-year plan of defying the heavens for himself!

And this mysterious force was also helping Jiang Chen defy the heavens!

Moreover, what Jiang Chen said made sense.

He had indeed been too deeply influenced by the heavens.

Otherwise, he would not have self-destructed his imperial essence, nor would he have shown such anger at being influenced by external forces.

As for Mu Kui, let him grow as he pleases.

Perhaps this is the correct way to defy the heavens…

With this thought, the Martial Emperor closed his eyes.

At the same time, the retrospective time suddenly closed.

Mu Kui awoke in the Desire prison, no longer feeling the interference of the Martial Emperor but able to recall the memories that belonged to the Martial Emperor.

With no one to suppress his emotions anymore, the influence of the nine cycles of reincarnation became even more apparent, and emotions such as anger, heartache, sadness, and guilt surged in his heart.

With a surge of hostility in his eyes, Mu Kui made a decision.

He would not return to the Jiuyan Sect but would travel around to strengthen himself.

From then on, he would practice only one punch.

This punch was a technique from the Martial Emperor’s memories, an ancient technique with only the Ancient Fist First Form: Open the Heavens.

His goal was to master this ancient technique to the extreme.

And then, sooner or later. He would break open the heavens for Jiang Chen!
