"So what if you're crippled?"
"Who told you to deceive me earlier?"
The White-robed Youth casually blew on his fist, as if he had just crushed a dead dog. "This is the consequence of lying to me."
"You... you're so vicious," Li Tian said through gritted teeth, glaring at the White-robed Youth. He enunciated each word clearly: "I told you, we don't have any top-tier Immortal Artifacts. Why are you forcing us like this?"
"You don't?"
The White-robed Youth squinted and smiled, revealing a bloodthirsty expression. He waved his hand.
With a ripping sound, Li Di, who was next to Li Tian, had his hand violently torn off.
"Ahh!"
The searing pain made Li Di scream hysterically, his shoulder wound a horrifying sight.
But before he could steady himself, the White-robed Youth's attack came at Li Di again.
Swoosh!
Almost instantly, the White-robed Youth's fist pierced straight through Li Di's chest.
"Brother, ugh, it hurts so much, ugh, am I going to die?"
Li Di said tearfully. Looking at the ghastly wound in his chest, he stood trembling, at a loss for what to do.
The next moment, he fell straight to the ground.
"Second brother!"
"Ahh!"
"Ahhhhhhh!"
Seeing Li Di fall silent on the ground, Li Tian's eyes bulged, and he let out a heart-wrenching scream.
His bloodshot eyes fixed a hateful gaze on the White-robed Youth before him, and he charged forward like a madman.
"You beast!"
"You beast, I'll fight you to the death!"
"Bang!"
Li Tian's punch was effortlessly caught by the White-robed Youth.
"Useless trash, you dare to fight me?"
The White-robed Youth spoke coldly, and delivered a heavy kick infused with Celestial Energy to Li Tian's chest.
"Bang!"
Li Tian was sent flying backwards.
He crashed heavily onto the ground, his chest caved in. He tried to get up but couldn't.
As he coughed violently, he even spat out fragments of his shattered internal organs.
"Hahaha..."
Seeing Li Tian only able to glare at him hatefully while struggling on the ground like a dying dog, the White-robed Youth burst into mocking laughter.
Behind him, the Old Man remained silent, coldly observing the scene.
"How does it feel? Now you know the consequences of deceiving me?"
The White-robed Youth walked over condescendingly to Li Ren, who had been crippled, and lightly placed his foot on Li Ren's hand.
Then he stomped down hard.
"Ahh!"
Li Ren, lying on the ground, let out an agonizing scream. His hand was crushed into the ground, becoming a bloody mess.
"You, you, you..."
Li Tian stared at the White-robed Youth like a fierce beast, breathing heavily, and said venomously: "You dare do this to us brothers, the Skull Lord and the others won't let you get away with this!"
"Skull Lord?"
"Hahaha!"
"I don't know where you useless trash came from, I've never even heard of him. How dare he call himself a lord?"
"Never mind that he's not here. Even if he were, if he doesn't hand over the top-tier Immortal Artifact to me, that so-called Skull Lord would end up no different from you useless lot."
"Hahaha..."
The White-robed Youth laughed mockingly, looking down at Li Tian sprawled on the ground.
"If you had obediently handed over the Immortal Artifact, this young master wouldn't have made things difficult for you."
"But you insisted on deceiving me."
"This young master hates being deceived the most, and I don't allow anyone to defy me."
"So you've brought this fate upon yourselves."
"However, this young master doesn't want to be ruthless. I'll give you one last chance. Bring out the top-tier Immortal Artifact yourself."
As he spoke, he casually extended his hand.

Countless years later. “Immortal Emperor of Longevity? I invested in him.” “Supreme Celestial Venerable? I invested in him.” “Undying Empress? I invested in her.” “...” “Heh.

So Gu Chen'an entered the role and began to act as a scumbag villain, but who would have expected that the female leads could hear his inner thoughts. Miss Su from the Su family was shocked: "I originally thought Gu Chen'an was a scumbag, but I didn't expect he turned out to be a gentleman! What? You said I have to call off the engagement? I definitely won't, I'll piss you off!" Bai Yuan Tian was dumbfounded: "Young Master Gu is usually unreasonable and a complete brat, but he actually calls me little sweetie in his heart? What, Young Master Gu even said he likes me?" As the female leads' images collapsed more and more, the plot also collapsed with it. Gu Chen'an looked at all this chaos. "Ladies, don't aggro me, if you keep this up the male lead really will stab me, I still need to survive to the grand finale!"

But when the final move was played on the chessboard, as Gu Chenghan seized everything and ascended on the verge of apotheosis, that very Princess suddenly embraced him from behind, her tone carrying a dependence never heard before: "Wait... you haven't yet... commanded me to love you forever."
