The improved female villains regained their memories.

The primordial pillar of light suddenly shattered into countless particles of light.

The ghostly figure appeared behind Yang Luoyi without warning. In the instant she was still dazed by the anomaly in time and space, a hand wrapped in golden patterns pierced through her chest.

The moment the five fingers closed, the translucent soul was forcibly pulled out of the body, flickering with a cold halo in the void.

"not good!"

"Luo Yi!"

Shi Guijia immediately panicked and rushed over. Xu Anlu was with her, but they were driven back by that figure.

The golden light gradually faded, finally revealing that familiar yet unfamiliar face.

Yang Pingsheng floated silently in mid-air, with countless golden threads running under his skin, wriggling like some kind of living thing.

His pupils had turned completely pale gold, devoid of any human warmth. His once gentle face was now like a frozen sculpture, devoid of even the most basic emotional fluctuations.

"Yang Pingsheng!! How could you, how could you do this!!"

Shi Guijia's roar was filled with overwhelming rage, and the golden light in the sky surged violently with her emotions, like the suppressed sea before a storm.

Her sword traced hundreds of dazzling paths, each containing spiritual power powerful enough to cleave mountains.

But the figure who had once shielded her from all danger now merely raised his hand indifferently. The hand, wrapped in golden threads, gently clenched in mid-air.

In an instant, the sky and earth were turned upside down.

Shi Guijia's pupils suddenly contracted.

She saw countless stars appear in Yang Pingsheng's palm, each star a complete world. Those worlds were expanding rapidly, engulfing her completely in the blink of an eye. Mountains and rivers flowed beneath her feet, the sun, moon, and stars revolved above her head, and she felt like an ant trapped in the world in his palm.

With a soft rustling sound, Shi Guijia and Yang Luoyi entered the realm of rules.

Yang Pingsheng slowly withdrew his hand. At this moment, he had completely taken control of the power of creation, and every move he made carried a terrifying pressure that made everyone tremble. His former comrades-in-arms were now nothing more than candles flickering in the wind before him.

Luo Benmo, Xu Anlu, and Ling Tiandu are the only three remaining, and none of them have a way to break the deadlock.

"The three of you, a new world is about to begin. The tide has turned. Stop struggling."

Yang Pingsheng said, "Let's enter the new world together. In that peaceful world, you will all find your own happiness."

Xu Anlu shook her head and said with a wry smile, "Pingsheng, you..."

A sudden clap of thunder rang out.

Before Xu Anlu could finish speaking, Luo Benmo, with lightning speed, gathered thunder and slashed his own neck with a knife.

Chapter 790: Rippling the Milky Way by Ten Thousand Liters

Luo Benmo's hand froze in mid-air.

After witnessing Su Murong's attempt to commit suicide, Yang Pingsheng roughly guessed the villains' choices.

That's what villains are like. Only now does Yang Pingsheng understand this. You can kill them, defeat them, crush them, but it's impossible to make them obey or submit to you.

It is precisely because of this inherent nature that they are able to stand out from the crowd and become their true selves.

Love and hate cannot bind them; their nature is what it is, and no one can change it.

Yang Pingsheng waved slightly, using energy to control Luo Benmo and bring her to him. The girl with flowing silver hair had eyes as cold as the winter wind, as cold as the Northern Territory of the Fourth Incarnation.

She opened her mouth slightly, tried to speak, and found that he had no power to control her speech, so she asked, "Little brother, are you trying to lock me up underground again?"

Yang Pingsheng reached out, and in the frozen space, even the softest strands of hair seemed stiff: "It's not like that, sister. They've all misunderstood me. A safe world isn't underground. There's no darkness or cold there. It's true that it's built on war, falsehood, lies, and deception, but it's a safe world."

"Just like the false image you created for me before, can it really put anyone's mind at ease?"

"That's different, sister. Back then, I was under Ye Buxin's control, and I was deceiving myself. It wasn't my intention to let you live underground. But now, all my actions are from my own heart, from my true thoughts. I'm not being manipulated by anyone. I just want to do it!"

“…Brother, the victor is king and the loser is villain. You have won, and I will let you do whatever you want, but I will not obey or agree to it.”

Yang Pingsheng laughed, a happy laugh like a child, but the laugh was chilling: "Yes, sister, you don't have to obey, you don't have to agree, because this is you! You are, they are, I am, everyone is! Reason is for others to hear, but the path is for oneself to walk. We all have our own paths to walk, but in the end only one person can reach the end."

Luo Benmo understood Yang Pingsheng's meaning. She reached out to touch him, but felt short of breath and as if she had fallen into an ice cave.

"I really need affection, but I saw my past experiences, you understand? Sister, my past self showed me his past experiences, and having gone through all of that with you, I will never go back. This is my hidden secret, he calculated it all, he calculated that having gone through all of that, I would see my past self and not go back. He understands me so well, he understands my true nature so well!"

"What is my essence? My essence is just this, just this!"

Human nature, though disguised by fate, is unique. Yang Pingsheng understood this in the past, which is why he entrusted himself to Ye Buxin, allowing himself to have these experiences and giving himself the power of choice.

This is the secluded place he reserved for himself.

------------------

His hand pierced through the girl's body, grasping her very essence.

An endless darkness descended, pulling at the girl as if trying to make her fall.

But Luo Benmo refused to admit defeat.

Lightning flashed, and in the boundless darkness and the false light, the lightning became incredibly real at that moment.

She wanted to destroy herself.

She would rather destroy herself than lose all her memories.

The lightning blazed across the sky, yet at that moment, it couldn't illuminate her shadow.

She was no longer the Luo Benmo who cast a huge shadow despite her short stature.

The lightning subsided, and when Luo Benmo opened her eyes, she, like them, had arrived at the Land of Rules.

------------------

“I truly cherish every moment I spent with you, but I have witnessed the consequences of my past choices in relationships, and I will not make the same choice again this time.” Yang Pingsheng said calmly, looking at the last two people, “Gentlemen, give up. A new world is destined to come, and you will find true happiness in a peaceful world.”

His voice became ethereal, as if it were his best wishes for them.

Xu Anlu took a deep breath, clenched her fist, and walked towards Yang Pingsheng through the air.

Happiness cannot be found in a false world.

One cannot understand a fate arranged for them by others.

This is not a safe and secure world; it is a world imagined by the villain Yang Pingsheng.

Xu Anlu does not accept such a world, nor will she accept such a Yang Pingsheng.

"Xiao Lu," she heard the man say, "you are exhausted and no match for me. Give up."

She looked up and asked, "Pingsheng, why have you never given up all this time?"

This was probably the first time she had loudly questioned Yang Pingsheng.

Villains never give up, they never admit defeat. Luo Benmo won't, Yang Pingsheng won't, and neither will Xu Anlu.

She adopted the stance of Xingyiquan, the one he had taught her years ago.

One punch.

Thus ended their life together, and even their very presence vanished.

Xu Anlu opened her eyes in a daze. Xu Anyin was holding her and crying. She saw Luo Benmo who had just come in, the figures of the other female villains, and Yang Pingsheng who was far away in the sky.

One rule defined all the villains.

Yang Pingsheng.

Did you regret your past, and that's how you ended up with this life? Why did you do this? Why did you choose this path? Did you have to go from one extreme to another?

------------------

“You won.” Ling Tiandu looked at Yang Pingsheng. “Congratulations, Pingsheng, you have defeated everyone, including those who love you.”

She said this without any sarcasm towards Yang Pingsheng; it was just a simple statement, as if she were stating a fact.

“Ling Tian was bound by jealousy, so she lost; Ye Buxin was self-righteous, so she also lost,” Yang Pingsheng said.

“It is very difficult to reach the end of one’s own path. Many people go through their whole lives without even knowing what their path is,” Yang Pingsheng said. “I have traveled a long way and even taken some wrong turns, but I am glad that I eventually returned to the right path.”

"You actually think that way? Such a biased view, you really are a qualified villain."

“Ling Tiandu, you once predicted a bloody calamity for me in the restaurant, saying that those who are sentimental will surely die young, but what has happened now? I have reached the end.”

“But your true self has fallen for love,” Yang Pingsheng said quietly.

When he said this, he didn't mean to mock Ling Tiandu; his tone was calm, as if he were stating a fact.

"you're right......."

Ling Tiandu was speechless and could only nod and say, "Before I am sent to the new world for modification, I want to ask you a question."

"You said."

"Are you really Yi Changcun?"

She is still struggling with this issue.

Yang Pingsheng watched her silently.

"Yes," she saw in his eyes the answer.

But when was that? At that time, Yang Pingsheng had already fallen into Ye Buxin's hands. He entrusted everything to Jiang Mochang, and the avatar setup was also centered around Jiang Mochang. How did he come into contact with him?

She saw the answer in those eyes again—not the Yang Pingsheng of that time, but the Yang Pingsheng of now.

Was it at that time that Luo Yi came into contact with Ling Tiandu and replaced all the timelines? The future replaced the past. Ye Buxin used it, Ling Tiandu used it, and it turns out Yang Pingsheng used it too.

"Xiaoling, I see a heart."

“Your heart is different. Your heart has a conscience, a burning resentment, and a hard protective shell. It’s a very peculiar heart.”

"My name is Yi Changcun."

Having been manipulated by the Human Will System for so long, this is the first time he has taken the initiative.

He took the initiative and planted this thorn that would destroy everything, leaving Ling Tianji feeling like he had a fishbone stuck in his throat.

He said, conscience.

And so, a proud phoenix perished.

------------------

After seeing Ling Tiandu off, Yang Pingsheng stood there alone.

The villains stand in the rules below, where there are rules that they cannot overstep.
