"The temperature in Haizhu City has been fluctuating quite a bit lately, so there are actually quite a few students catching colds and fevers." In the school infirmary, Ye Shuang was looking at the recent records in his hands. Almost every class had one or two students who had taken a leave of absence from the academy due to a fever or cold.
"Achoo." A soft sneeze came from beside him.
Ye Shuang paused for a moment and looked to his side in slight surprise. An Shiyu was rubbing the tip of her nose, looking a bit annoyed. Perhaps noticing Ye Shuang's gaze, she subconsciously sniffled and asked, "What?"
"Are you feeling unwell? It seems like a lot of people are taking sick leave recently," Ye Shuang asked.
"Mmm... I'm fine. My nose is just a little itchy, that's all."
An Shiyu made a dismissive gesture. She didn't feel anything wrong with her body; her nose was just itching for no reason just now.
Hearing this, Ye Shuang thought for a moment, then, still feeling uneasy, he used his system to check on her.
[Character: An Shiyu
Ouch, what are you doing?]
Ye Shuang: "..."
Is the system not even giving a shred of normal information anymore? Why isn't it providing anything of value?
Sometimes, looking at this broken system, Ye Shuang really wanted to call the police.
It was so dawdling and didn't even come with a user manual.
Ye Shuang then took out a mercury thermometer. "It's better to take your temperature first."
"No."
"It's just taking your temperature. It won't stop you from playing games with your controller." Seeing An Shiyu shaking her head from side to side so fast it was almost a blur, Ye Shuang held the thermometer and said.
"I super hate having cold things shoved into my body."
"Oh? So you prefer it full and hot?" On the other side, a certain fish poked her head out. "Oh my, you should have said so earlier... I have a fire poker, or actually, Uncle has one too..."
An Shiyu: "..."
Right at that moment, a flurry of hurried footsteps echoed from the corridor. The next second, the infirmary door was violently pushed open. "An Shiyu!!!"
Ye Shuang was so startled by the sudden noise that he almost dropped the thermometer. He looked toward the door, only to find a tall girl with a ponytail, and...
Huh?
Why was she wearing a black latex suit?
"An Shiyu!" An Shiyaya excitedly pointed at An Shiyu. However, in the next second, when she saw the other fish beside her, she was clearly stunned. She took a step back in disbelief.
"Y-You've already learned the legendary Shadow Clone Jutsu?!"
The girl immediately beat her chest and stomped her feet, then dropped to her knees, leaning forward to pound the floor. "Damn it!!!!!! Even though, even though..."
"Even though I was the one who started learning ninjutsu first!"
Ye Shuang looked at this babbling girl in slight astonishment. However, he somewhat understood a few of the sentences. After hearing her call out An Shiyu's name, he pointed at An Shiyaya.
"Someone you know?"
"I have no idea where she popped out from. Hurry up and catch her so she can be locked up in a mental hospital," An Shiyu said indifferently, looking at the howling girl with a hint of disgust.
At this time, An Shiyaya stood up with her body contorted like an Abnormal Titan, and then crawled over to An Shiyu's side like a spider.
"I am Yaya!"
"Tsk, and then?"
"I am your fated nemesis, you know?!" An Shiyaya stood up and pointed at herself.
"Just you?" An Shiyu said, grabbing the other girl's slimes. "Even these things on you are fake. What do you have to fight me with?"
However, in the next second, An Shiyu felt something strange and reached out to grab the other one.
"Huh? Your fakes feel pretty real."
"They are real!!" An Shiyaya immediately let out a chicken-like squawk.
"Is that so? I don't believe it."
"Can you let go first?" Perhaps mindful of the fact that there was a male, Ye Shuang, standing right there, An Shiyaya immediately said.
"Oh."
Standing off to the side, Ye Shuang's mouth twitched. No matter how you looked at it, An Shiyu's claws were a bit too ferocious. He asked, "Is this girl a relative of yours?"
[Character: An Shiyaya
An Shiyu's cousin, terrible at things but loves to play anyway, considers An Shiyu her lifelong nemesis on the path of the ninja... Currently a quite popular VTuber]
"So she really is a relative." After seeing the information, Ye Shuang pondered for a moment.
But a VTuber... doing live streams or something?
This weirdo demeanor was actually somewhat similar to An Shiyu.
Thinking back to Old Man An Shi's perverted pink battle suit, Ye Shuang figured there probably weren't any normal people left in the An Shi family.
"Who are you?" At this moment, An Shiyaya looked at Ye Shuang.
"I'm the school doctor here," Ye Shuang said, pointing to the name tag on his chest. "You, understand-ka or not understand-ka?"
An Shiyaya: "..."
Seeing the girl squinting hard in confusion, Ye Shuang asked Chao Yiyu, "Hmm... why doesn't this Sakura girl understand Sakura language?"
Chao Yiyu, who was biting on a lollipop with both hands behind her head while spinning in the sofa chair, replied, "Oh? So you were speaking Sakura language? I thought you were some colonel from a domestic war drama, Colonel Yamamoto Kameda Ye."
Ye Shuang's mouth twitched.
What colonel? That was pure insult.
"You guys... Wow, this is amazing! Is this the Shadow Clone? How did you do it? Why does it look so similar? It's exactly like a real person!"
"I'm so jealous!"
At this time, An Shiyaya was also circling around the two fishes, her eyes wide and shining as if they had been consecrated.
"I won't lose! I'm going to ask Great-Uncle An Shi how to do the Shadow Clone right now!"
After saying that, An Shiyaya ran off like a gust of wind.
Ye Shuang stood there in a mess for a moment before looking at An Shiyu. "With a personality like that, how come I've never seen her before?"
"Oh, she's probably here as an exchange student. No wonder I felt a bit unwell today, like I was possessed by a ghost." An Shiyu rolled her shoulders.
"That girl is so annoying. I should just find a time to put a sack over her head and sink her into the Pearl River."
"That's a very dangerous thought," Ye Shuang said. "When was the last time you two met?"
Hearing this, An Shiyu thought for a few seconds and looked at Chao Yiyu. "When was it?"
"You're asking me, but who am I supposed to ask?" Chao Yiyu threw her hands up.
"Is your hyperthymesia really that unreliable? I've been treating you as my portable hard drive."
"Tsk, I'm obviously your portable CD of dark history... I really have no impression of that girl. It must have been over ten years." Chao Yiyu said, casting a playful glance at Ye Shuang.
"Uncle, I have some footage here. Do you want to see it? It's top secret."
"What foot..."
Before Ye Shuang could finish his sentence, An Shiyu expressionlessly took out a dagger and stabbed it into the table with such force that it sank deep into the wood.
"It seems I'm not that interested," Ye Shuang quickly changed his tune.
nd fell into a coma while saving his younger sister from an out-of-control car. He became a vegetable. No one knew that his consciousness had crossed into a world of cultivation. Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King. Alchemy, medicine, formations, feng shui, physiognomy, artifact forging… Every great inheritance of the cultivation world was now his. But when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that ten full years had passed in the modern world. To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness. His mother had cared for him day and night, and more than half of her hair had already turned white. His younger sister, who had been only fifteen back then, was now twenty-five. To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him. Spiritual energy was scarce, resources were depleted, and the modern world still had firearms, surveillance, capital, and laws. If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.
