Eternal Villain: I can enslave Reality!

"What shouldn't be?" Xu Shan asked, keeping his voice low. "Did you also feel that something is wrong with him?"

"I feel a familiar aura on him." Xinren frowned. 𝑏𝘦𝑑𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝘰𝘮

"Familiar aura?" Xu Shan asked, but before he could continue further questioning, he heard his father's voice.

His father was standing in the distance, taking a good look at everyone. It wasn't often that everyone was invited to the Royal Palace after all.

The Emperor didn't take much time with his speech, only introducing the young man beside him. However, the identity of the young man was what stunned everyone in the hall!

Initially, only a few people knew who the guest was, but when the rest found out, the reaction was quite big. Even Xu Shan was taken aback, not expecting it!

In this world, there were only a few Great Empires like the Eternal Dynasty! Each of the Great Empires controlled vast land and resources. Thousands of smaller kingdoms were also under these Great Empires!

One such Empire was the Qin Dynasty which was on the western side of the Eternal Dynasty. Generally, the Qin Dynasty and Eternal Dynasty had nothing to do with each other.

While the Sky Dynasty was something akin to an enemy to the Eternal Dynasty, the Qin Dynasty had always been neutral, not interfering in matters of other Dynasties.

However, that all changed around five years ago when the Emperor died suddenly! No one knew the cause of death; however, news of such a big event clearly spread in nearby Dynasties since the previous Emperor was only in his mid-fifties when he died!

There were many rumors at the time. Some rumors stated that the Emperor was murdered by a Prince for the throne, while others stated that the Emperor was assassinated by his enemies. No one knew the truth, but everyone knew what had happened after that!

After the Emperor passed away, the Qin Dynasty was in a very dire state! All the powerful clans in the Qin Dynasty started a rebellion to take control of the Empire!

In fact, the situation was so bad that more than seventy percent of the land was under the control of the rebels who received help from other Dynasties in secret!

At that time, no one expected the Qin Dynasty to survive! However, just when it was looking at if everything was over, things started changing! It was also around that time when a name started rising... Qin Ye.

Qin Ye was the seventh prince of the Qin Dynasty. For most of his life, he had been very unremarkable, not attracting any attention. However, he suddenly rose to prominence when the Dynasty needed him the most!

In less than two years, the young man, who was only in his early twenties, turned the situation around! Under his leadership, not only did the Empire regain control over their lost land, but all the rebels were killed!

No matter what plan the rebels came up with; they couldn't succeed! At that time, there were even rumors that Qin Ye could see the future or he was a master strategist who could predict anything!

Under his lead, the Empire didn't lose a single battle! While the rebels had a hundred times more soldiers than the Qin Empire, the Empire still won!

It was also around that time when all the other Princes and Princesses suddenly died! Some thought it was the work of rebels, but many believed it was done by Qin Ye personally! Still, no one dared to question him!

After ending the rebellion, Qin Ye rose to the throne, becoming the new Emperor of the Qin Dynasty. He also executed all the rebels, including their wives and children!

He excelled in strategies and studying his enemy. However, he was also just as ruthless in dealing with his enemies!

Xu Shan was slightly taken back to find out that the young man in the distance was the Emperor of Qin Dynasty Qin Ye himself!

The dark-haired man smiled. "Looks like many people know me in the Eternal Dynasty. I hope only for good reasons."

"Of course. Who wouldn't appreciate a talented young man like you." The Eternal Emperor laughed. "Oh, let me introduce you to my sons."

The Qin Dynasty had always been neutral, staying out of the business of the other Dynasties. However, the Eternal Emperor was surprised when he received a request from the Qin Dynasty mentioning that the Emperor of Qin wanted to visit the Royal Capital!

This was a perfect opportunity for the two Dynasties to get closer. Moreover, the Eternal Emperor was already very impressed with the young man next to him, who was an expert in war strategies.

He believed that as long as he could bring the Qin Dynasty into working together with the Eternal Dynasty, it was beneficial for both of them. That's also why he tossed such a heavy welcome at such short notice.

The Eternal Emperor gestured for all the Princes and Princesses to come closer and introduce themselves to Qin Ye. Even though his children were of a similar age to Qin Ye, the Emperor knew all too well that they weren't as talented as him.

The first prince was the first to step forward, respectfully offering a toast to the Emperor of Qin. He didn't forget to praise Qin Ye's impressive feat, attempting to get closer to him.

Qin Ye also talked nicely, not showing any rudeness at all.

One after another, the Princes came and introduced themselves, greeting Qin Ye.

It was the same for all the Princesses who were slightly fascinated by the Emperor of Qin, who looked so handsome yet was so powerful and talented! He was already on an equal footing with their father in position after all!

"Shan'er, what are you doing there? Come here."

Unlike the other Princes, Xu Shan hadn't gone forward at all. He was standing in the back, lazily drinking his wine while ignoring the entire bootlicking fiasco by his royal brothers that was taking place right before his eyes.

Xu Shan wanted to avoid this since the Third Prince would've done the same. However, now that his father specifically called him by name, he couldn't ignore this anymore.

He understood that there was something wrong with the man. As for what, that was the question in his mind.

He didn't show any strange emotions and calmly stepped forward.

"I'm the Third Prince, Xu Shan. Nice to meet you." He casually spoke.

"Prince Xu Shan. I heard you're also very popular in the Dynasty." Qin Ye smiled. "I must say, your eyes are really fascinating. As if they're hiding a lot of secrets…."
