Chapter 964 - I Became a Villainess and Was Pestered by Beautiful Girls

The majority of people harbor evil within their hearts. Humans possess seven emotions and six desires. When these desires are unfulfilled, it's hard to prevent the rise of evil thoughts. "You're right," said the Eldest Senior Sister, hands on her hips, addressing Guang Meng. "My heart harbors no evil!" "Nonsense..." Only if the Elder Grandmaster had lost his wits would he believe such a ludicrous claim. Who doesn't harbor evil? Only a true saint! Unless she has reached a level of enlightenment similar to that of the Elders, how could she not possess a trace of evil? This person must have used some method to deceive the scrutiny of the Heart of Light. Such an occurrence would be impossible for others. The power of the world is formidable; even individuals at the mid-stage of tribulation find it hard to resist it head-on. But if we're talking about this young one... she possesses "divine skills," making her a great mystery in herself. The other Elders of the Light Clan were also observing the situation here. Seeing the Eldest Senior Sister successfully pass the trial, expressions of shock, confusion, and perplexity adorned their faces. After all, the Eldest Senior Sister looked like "a body of desires," making it difficult to associate her with "a person of great virtue without desires." However, they are true to their word. Since she has gained the recognition of the Heart of Light, there's no reason to refuse her the seed of the Heart of Light. Guang Meng walked under the massive Heart of Light, cupping her hands, and a light orb the size of a fingernail fell into her palms. She concocted a crystal sphere out of thin air, encapsulating the light orb before handing it over to the Eldest Senior Sister. "This is the Heart of Light." Tang Xin carefully took it, feeling the gentle energy within the crystal sphere. With the Heart of Light’s acknowledgment, this kind of energy would no longer harm her. "Try bringing your divine artifact in front of the Heart of Light," the Elder Grandmaster spoke again, "and see if it wishes to bless your artifact." The Eldest Senior Sister nodded and pulled out a broom. The spirit of the divine artifact lay hidden within the depths of the broom, seemingly only able to communicate with her under special conditions. It was just a "form." To become a true divine artifact spirit, it seemed to require time and opportunity. Tang Xin stood beneath the Heart of Light, holding the broom up close to be bathed in its energy. After a moment, the light orb emitted a suction force, drawing the broom towards it. "It seems it has acknowledged your artifact," Guang Meng nodded. "Wait a bit, and you'll see results." This time, thanks to the broom... Without its reminder, she definitely wouldn't have passed the Light Clan's trial so easily. Moreover, it also reminded her about the issues with the forces of righteousness and demonology, something Tang Xin found difficult to consult others about. "I heard you are also seeking the Dark Clan," the Elder Grandmaster mentioned. "Do you intend to seize the Heart of Darkness as well?" "Do you know the Dark Clan?" Tang Xin eagerly inquired. "It's quite obvious, isn't it?" Guang Meng gave her a look. "One is called the Light Clan, and the other, the Dark Clan. Their names alone suggest some connection." The Light and Dark Clans are "complementing races." It's said that long, long ago, before the Hearts of Light and Darkness were discovered, they were one race, the Light-Dark Clan. Eventually, some found the Heart of Light, and others found the Heart of Darkness. After many evolutions, they gradually became two distinct races. Indeed, the Light Clan didn't initially possess the Heart of Light; rather, it was the Heart of Light that nurtured the Light Clan. "Wait," the Eldest Senior Sister interrupted, astonished. "Based on what you're saying, how powerful was the Light-Dark Clan?" Splitting into two, each is of a super race standard; combined, it's unimaginable! "It's not that exaggerated," Guang Meng shrugged. "We evolved to this level only after obtaining the Hearts of Light and Darkness. Before that, our talents were nothing freakish. But still, we were among the top races in the ancient era." "Isn't that exaggerated enough?" Back to the Dark Clan. Since they were originally one family, they naturally share many similarities with the Light Clan. Even after adapting to the energy of the Heart of Darkness and undergoing changes, not everything was altered. "Do your two races see each other as enemies, fighting incessantly?" Light and Dark, just like righteousness and demonology, surely extends from generations of grandparents to generations of grandchildren... "No," Guang Meng spread his hands again. "Our relations are actually quite decent." "Why don't you play by the rules?" The reason for their good relations is simple: there's no conflict of interest between them. The Light Clan has the Heart of Light, and the Dark Clan has the Heart of Darkness. Neither can use the other's power. Considering some shared history from their ancestors, they sometimes contact each other. "That doesn't sound right. According to the plot, shouldn't acquiring the world's power from the other allow merging into the 'Heart of Light and Darkness,' greatly enhancing one's race’s power?" Tang Xin frowned, stroking her chin. "You humans love to overthink," Guang Meng retorted. "The combination of the Heart of Light and Darkness indeed stabilizes forms, but that's not essential. Even if it was needed, couldn't we just trade peacefully?" At the level of super races, without fundamental conflicts of interest, high-ranking powerhouses aren't foolish enough to wage war over nebulous things. However, the Dark Clan is even more secluded than the Light Clan. The Phoenix Clan might still find ways to contact the Light Clan, but the Dark Clan, seemingly merging into the darkness, hardly interacts with anyone. Also, as the Elder Grandmaster knows, to obtain the "Heart of Darkness," one must also undergo a trial. “Let me guess," said Tang Xin. "It involves stimulating the evil within, correct? Opposite to the trial of the Heart of Light, one must become thoroughly wicked to be acknowledged by the Heart of Darkness." "Where did you get that idea?" Guang Meng's mouth twitched. "If the Heart of Darkness truly proposed such a trial, wouldn't that be blatantly opposing us? How then could our two races coexist peacefully?" "What exactly is the trial for the Heart of Darkness?" Tang Xin sheepishly smiled, inquiring. “I can't tell you that..." The Elder Grandmaster shook his head. “Come on, don't be like that. I've been acknowledged by the Heart of Light, making me practically one of the Light Clan, right? Why be formal with your own people?” The Eldest Senior Sister, pretending to be coquettish, went in for a hug. Typically, after experiencing the Eldest Senior Sister's embrace, most would comply with her requests. "Be dignified," Guang Meng teleported away to avoid her arms and said, “I can sense your physique is quite special, possibly possessing some 'improper' powers." "Ugh, an old monster pretending to be innocent, not cute at all…" “All I can reveal is that the trial for the Heart of Darkness is related to 'solitude,'"
