Chosen One, how did I end up as the villain?

next moment

Her aura surged, surrounded by silver light, and then she rushed out like lightning.

Upon seeing this, the four monks nearby immediately attacked Qin Huaiyu.

The truth has been revealed, and all attempts to persuade have been futile, only resulting in humiliation. It's now a matter of life or death for both of us.

The four of them moved incredibly fast, arriving almost in the blink of an eye. Their fists and feet attacked with such ferocity that they compressed the space around them, causing the air to surge and the wind to howl, demonstrating just how terrifying the power of their strikes was.

Qin Huaiyu's eyes narrowed. He reacted with incredible speed, lunging forward and using his shoulder as a weapon to deliver a powerful, close-to-the-mountain-leaning strike.

"Bang!"

A muffled thud.

The sweeping monk felt a tightness in his chest and was sent flying.

At the same time, the attacks from the other three were about to hit him. The powerful gale stung his cheeks, and a chill ran down his back.

A pincer attack from both sides!

Qin Huaiyu remained calm, bent his arm and stepped back, then struck the monk behind him with his elbow, while sweeping his leg across in front, the powerful force creating a loud bang.

The monks tried to dodge, but it was too late. They were horrified. Qin Huaiyu's attack was too fast, almost instantaneous, giving them no time to react.

This was someone they couldn't afford to offend; the three of them felt fear as soon as they exchanged blows.

But reality is cruel. With two screams in succession, one monk was directly knocked back, while the other two fared even worse, being brutally beaten to the ground with blood still hanging from the corners of their mouths.

Qin Huaiyu was not about to let such an opportunity slip by; he exerted force with his feet and stomped down.

But at this moment

The two monks' faces contorted and began to change. Their entire bodies began to swell, and their enormous muscles instantly burst through their clothes. Their once human faces and features became converging and distorted.

It has a huge mouth full of fangs, its nose is gone, leaving only two empty holes, and a single eye on its forehead.

Not only that, its limbs transformed into sharp claws, the sharp nails emitting a chilling light.

"The changes were quite thorough, but they were all for naught!"

Qin Huaiyu mobilized the power within his body, and suddenly golden light surged beneath his feet.

"Pfft"

The monk who was closer to the center had not yet fully transformed when his muscular chest was stomped and collapsed, his bones piercing through his flesh. He coughed up blood, his eyes widened, and his breath weakened.

Although he was not dead, he was on the verge of death.

Such a brutal scene spurred the other three people on.

Isn't this young master of the Qin family a beginner cultivator? How can he be so strong? Not only is he fast, but his physique is also ridiculously powerful. He's practically a humanoid beast.

The sweeping monk had a dark expression, but a strong sense of unease welled up inside him.

Although the Nightmare Devourer has not yet embarked on cultivation, its strength is not to be underestimated. It has devoured at least a dozen people, and even a cultivator of a slightly higher level would be doomed if they were to face it in their true form.

But now, in just one encounter, one has been destroyed, which is unbelievable.

The other ferocious beast, which had fallen to the ground, was terrified. It frantically waved its claws, trying to escape the battlefield.

Qin Huaiyu immediately saw through its intention. Taking advantage of the gap in the claw attack, his golden-glowing foot raised its leg and chopped down with force.

A loud "bang!"

The Nightmare felt a sudden weight on its shoulder and collapsed to its knees. A gruesome wound was slashed across its body from top to bottom, dripping with blood. Its strong arm was wracked with pain and could no longer move.

Seeing their expressions, Qin Huaiyu reached out and grabbed their arms.

"You guys enjoy refining people, then you should definitely try it out!"

"What do you want to do!" the two Devourers shouted in terror.

Qin Huaiyu sneered and answered their questions with his actions. He exerted force with both hands and threw the two directly into the alchemy furnace.

"Clang, clang"

With a dull thud, the two were accurately thrown inside. The furnace shook violently, and a miserable wail instantly echoed from within.

"Ah, ah..."

The screams didn't last long. The furnace quieted down, and thick wisps of black energy flowed from the furnace opening, converging on the evil Buddha statue, which seemed even more substantial than before.

"Amitabha Buddha, you are being far too cruel, benefactor!"

The young monk sweeping the floor had a stern face and made a signature Buddhist gesture, pressing his palms together.

"Cruel, huh!"

Qin Huaiyu glanced sideways. "Why didn't you say anything when you threw the child in? You bunch of inhuman bastards! Stop pretending to be respectable; you're not worthy!"

Deceiving the villagers, persecuting children, and killing the Qin family's merchant caravan—no matter what they did, these guys were utterly heinous.

"Amitabha!"

The sweeping monk frowned deeply. "Young Master Qin, is there no room for negotiation? Must things be this way?"

Qin Huaiyu coldly retorted, "He who kills will be killed by men!"

"Very well, since you are so stubborn, then we will convert you to enlightenment to demonstrate the Buddha's power."

After uttering two consecutive "good"s, the sweeping monk gritted his teeth and finally revealed a ruthless look.

Having been a Nightmare Devourer for many years, it had never begged anyone so humbly. If it weren't worried about the other party's strength, it would have devoured the person long ago, instead of wasting words and enduring such humiliation.

But right now, Qin Huaiyu was clearly not buying it; he stared coldly at the young monk.

"Stop talking nonsense, come on!"

Upon hearing this, the two monks revealed their murderous intent. Their aura suddenly rose, and their bodies swelled up at the same time. Their facial features changed, and their muscles bulged. In the blink of an eye, they transformed into one-eyed monsters like the previous two.

The sweeping monk, however, was different. He was noticeably stronger, standing nearly ten feet tall, and had grown two extra arms. He exuded an extremely ferocious aura, like a giant beast.

Seeing this, Qin Huaiyu charged forward without any hesitation. This time, he chose to take the initiative to attack, since it was a fight to the death, so why bother with any more pretense?

Seeing this, the Nightmare Devourer behind them quickly gave chase.

All three were very fast, and they were engaged in combat in the blink of an eye. As their fists and feet swung, the air vibrated, and the dull, powerful sounds sent chills down one's spine.

"Bang, bang, bang..."

Qin Huaiyu, draped in golden light, moved with sweeping, powerful strokes, each attack brimming with momentum, making him appear like an incomparably domineering war god.

In mid-air, their moves were extremely swift and powerful, causing a gale to sweep through the air, with sand and stones flying everywhere. The moment they landed, the ground around them cracked open, and rocks scattered in all directions.

"puff"

A streak of blood shot into the air.

The smaller Shi E was sent flying by Qin Huaiyu's punch, and blood seeped from the corner of his mouth.

It has to be said that being besieged by two Nightmare Devourers was somewhat dangerous, especially the monster that the sweeping monk in front of him had transformed into. His muscles were like a tank, with high defense and great strength.

And then there are those four hands...

As the saying goes, two fists can't beat four hands, let alone six. He was bound to take a few hits. If he hadn't been physically strong, he would have been lying on the ground by now.

"Go to hell!"

The Nightmare Devourer spoke in human language, its pupils wide open, and four enormous fists tore through the air and slammed down one after another.

"It's time to end this!"

Qin Huaiyu stepped back, then his fist shone with golden light as he charged forward.

A loud "bang!"

As the wind subsided and the momentum dissipated, a golden fist shattered the shadow of the fist with overwhelming force.

"Click"

With a sharp crack, the Nightmare let out a scream as its entire arm pierced through its shoulder, the broken bone and flesh dripping with blood, looking exceptionally gruesome.

Qin Huaiyu continued his offensive, turning his fists into palms, and taking advantage of the opportunity, he dislocated the other three struggling arms in succession.

"Ah, ah..."
