Eternal Villain: I can enslave Reality!

Duan Mu rushed to attack the moment he sensed a movement. However, the moment he saw the person, his feet froze, his eyes widening in disbelief.

In the distance stood a middle aged woman, her face showing slight traces of fear. Behind the woman, there stood Xu Shan, a calm smirk on his lips.contemporary romance

"And here I thought, it would be a beautiful happy reunion," Xu Shan stated. "Why are you pointing a sword at your dear mother?"

Duan Mu stood still, his eyes still finding it hard to believe. He even wondered if this was an illusion or a clone, but the moment he looked into his mother's eyes, he could feel that she was real.

All this time, he had thought that she was killed. And now she was standing before him.

"Run away! Don't care about m-" Before Duan Mu could reach, her mother exclaimed. However, before she could finish her sentence, Xu Shan waved his hand, closing the woman's mouth with his aura.

"Now now, that won't do. If my dear friend runs away, won't it be boring for them?" Xu Shan innocently stated, his meaningful glance resting on Duan Mu.

Duan Mu clenched his fist, his mind filled with Chaos. He didn't know how his mother was alive, but he wasn't going to abandon her. He thought how he could free her, but it all seemed hard. Xu Shan was right next to her.

Even if he attacked him, he could use his mother as a shield. And if he tried to free her first, he could kill her before he could even get close to him.

"You're hiding behind a woman? Are you even a man? Let her go and face me!" Duan Mu roared.

In response, Xu Shan burst into laughter. His laughter echoed in the forest.

He looked at Duan Mu mockingly and said, "Why would I do something so troublesome? Did you really think your taunts would work?"

Xu Shan's words only fueled Duan Mu's anger. The realization that his mother was being used as a pawn by this man made him even more determined to protect her.

"If you won't release her willingly, then I'll just have to take her back by force."

Duan Mu's aura surged around him, crackling with energy. He raised his sword, the blade gleaming in the sunlight. With a swift motion, he lunged towards Xu Shan, his sword aimed at his heart.

Xu Shan didn't respond. He simply created a dagger from his aura, placing it on the woman's throat. "Are you sure about that?'

Duan Mu stopped in his tracks, forcefully changing the direction of his attack as he couldn't stop it.

His sword came slashing down, sending a powerful wave of celestial aura that left a thousand feet long trail in its wake.

Xu Shan observed the trail of the attack, interest gleaming in his eyes. "Not bad. Looks like I was right. You had received that inheritance. No wonder you were able to break free of my control. But at the end of the day, with me is where you belong."

Duan Mu clenched his teeth, his heart unwilling. However, his mother was the only family he had left. She was his everything. And now that he knew she was alive, he couldn't abandon her.

"What do you want from me?!" he asked, his voice cracking in anger.

"Mmm! Mmmm!" His mother tried to speak, but she couldn't even open her mouth. If she could open her mouth, she would've definitely told him to not listen to this demon. Yet she could see the love her son had for her. She knew that for her, he was going to sacrifice himself.

She thought that she couldn't let her son sacrifice himself for her. She clenched her teeth, thinking of a way.

She knew that as long as she was in Xu Shan's grasp, her son could never be free. However, she couldn't escape from him either. And even if she somehow managed to get away from him, her son couldn't escape while taking her.

Tears welled up in her eyes as she realized that there was only one thing she could do to truly free her son. She glanced at the dagger that Xu Shan had placed against her throat. There was only one way for her to free her son. And that was for her to die.

As this realization dawned upon her, a surge of determination filled Duan Mu's mother. She knew what she had to do, even if it meant sacrificing herself for her son's freedom. With a steady gaze, she looked directly into Duan Mu's eyes, silently conveying her decision.

Duan Mu looked at his mother. Looking in her eyes, he had a bad feeling about this.

Before Duan Mu could react, his mother swiftly moved forward even though there was almost no gap between her throat at the dagger.

Duan Mu's world shattered as he watched in horror, unable to reach his mother in time. Her sacrifice left him speechless, his heart aching with grief and guilt. He fell to his knees, blankly watching his mother in the distance.

Xu Shan frowned as he watched the woman's body drop to the group, the bloody dagger still in his hand.

"What a fool. Even at this moment, she didn't forget to create such unnecessary trouble for me." He looked at the woman's body at his feet.

Duan Mu's sorrow turned into a burning rage. The grief and guilt transformed into a fierce anger to avenge his mother's death. He rose to his feet, his eyes ablaze with an otherworldly fury.

"You will pay for what you've done!" Duan Mu's voice was filled with fury. He gripped his sword tightly, his hands trembling with a mix of grief and anger. The aura around him intensified, crackling with raw power.

With a swift motion, Duan Mu launched himself at Xu Shan, his strikes filled with the desire to take revenge for his mother. The forest became a battlefield as their swords clashed, their movements a blur of speed and precision.
