Suddenly, the atmosphere in the room turned charged and ambiguous.
A thin layer of cold sweat appeared on An Yi's forehead. He felt the way this plot was developing was starting to get inexplicably weird.
According to logic, after the saying "Don't bully the youth for being poor," shouldn't Ye Tian be rewriting his fate, defying the odds?
The Xu family oppresses him, and he refuses to submit.
Then he uses the City Lord's Mansion's power to oppress him, and he still refuses to submit.
Finally, Ye Tian reveals his true strength—not as a crippled meridian, but as the earth-shattering, godlike Xuanming Divine Meridian!
After a furious brawl, he emerges triumphant and invincible!
He makes Xu Yiyun kneel and cry, saying, "I'm so damn regretful!"
The entire Xu family joins in, beating their chests and stomping their feet, tears streaming down as they admit their blindness.
Then, Ye Tian strikes a cool pose and swaggers off into the distance.
Him, on the other hand, is just playing the role of Wang Mazi, acting as a wingman according to the standard script, helping fight some monsters along the way.
But now...
The eldest Miss of the Xu family!
The fiancée who was supposed to break off her engagement with the Chosen One!
She comes to the room of a mere follower in the middle of the night, seducing him with her body!
What kind of absurd plot development is this? Does it even make sense?
An Yi pondered deeply.
Could it be that he was wrong? Maybe Ye Tian isn't following the "Don't bully the youth for being poor" or the has-been-turned-god script. Perhaps this is a cuckold narrative instead?
How else would Xu Yiyun end up in his room, trying to seduce him?
"The marriage contract is with Ye Tian. How about I take you to him instead?"
Looking at Xu Yiyun, An Yi cleared his throat and prepared to open the door and leave.
Sure, this woman might not be a virgin anymore, and she might have been with countless men already.
But she was still Ye Tian's former fiancée—there was no way he was putting that cuckold's hat on his boss!
Creak!
Xu Yiyun stepped back and closed the door shut. She smiled mischievously at An Yi, a hint of mockery flashing deep in her eyes.
An Yi was outraged: "What are you doing?! I, Wang Mazi, am not that kind of person!"
"Truth is, back when I was in the Xu family, I was already captivated by your charm. I never imagined a man could be so bold and domineering. It was really alluring."
Xu Yiyun said with a flushed face.
She seemed genuinely caught up in a trance of infatuation.
"Well..."
An Yi hesitated for a moment, unable to help but marvel at his own irresistible charm.
Even wearing the face of Wang Mazi, he still couldn't keep the ladies away!
Just then, Xu Yiyun suddenly leaned in. Her delicate hand reached for An Yi's chest.
The moment her fingertips made contact, she was slightly surprised.
Though the guy's face wasn't much to look at, his body was surprisingly well-built.
Tall and lean, he was both fit and firm. He had abs too, which meant good stamina in bed.
An Yi said sternly, "Miss, please show some restraint!"
"Do you really not like me? Tonight is such a rare and fine evening..."
Xu Yiyun cooed softly, her hand brushing over her shoulder. "Besides, my clothes are completely soaked. Let me at least change out of them, won't you?"
Tonight, she was determined to borrow what she needed!
She truly didn't believe there was any man out there who could refuse a free meal at his doorstep.
"This... this..."
An Yi's eyes sharpened.
He still couldn't figure out this woman's motives. Her actions defied all logic!
...
Meanwhile, in another room of the inn.
Ye Tian's brows were tightly knitted. Beads of sweat rolled down his jaw, and his body trembled uncontrollably.
Inside the bronze pagoda, Tian Xuan's voice echoed.
"You must steady yourself! Push through in one breath! Open the meridian passage!"
Clenching his teeth with a determined gaze, Ye Tian let out a roar.
Then, suddenly, a sensation of channels opening surged through him, and an irresistible wave of comfort made him cry out.
Spiritual energy swirled, circulating along the spirit veins. Though slow, it allowed him to feel the surging power.
“It... it worked!”
Ye Tian could hardly believe it.
He raised his hand, and a faint crimson flame flickered into being.
His crippled-vein constitution had actually been activated through the flow of spiritual energy.
All things are difficult at the start.
Since he had managed to open it, that meant one day, he could fully resolve the problem of these useless veins.
“Nine Yang Divine Flame... I never imagined that your current body would be the one-in-a-million Nine Yang Divine Flame. Is this fate, or...”
Tian Xuan sensed Ye Tian’s joy, a faint smile forming at her lips. She understood just how much he had been waiting for this day.
Suddenly, Ye Tian’s brow furrowed, as if struck by a thought. Slowly, he lifted his other hand.
There, coiled in his palm, was a distinct blue flame—completely different from the red one—dancing alongside it.
The sight stunned Tian Xuan.
“Controlling two entirely different flames at the same time... a dual spiritual vein?! How... how is this possible!”
In theory, two kinds of spiritual energy should never coexist. Yet Ye Tian had done it.
Gazing at the two flames, one on each side, he was overjoyed himself.
He could actually master both the Nine Yang Divine Flame and the Xuanming Divine Flame at once!
But... what the hell was the use of that?
At that moment, soft footsteps sounded from the rooftop.
Someone was there?
Ye Tian’s expression shifted. He put away the bronze pagoda.
The night rain had not yet stopped.
It pattered along the eaves, dripping onto the flagstones, muffling the sound of footsteps.
The black-clad figure cautiously checked the room inside, but saw no sign of Ye Tian.
“Where is he?”
Suddenly, an indescribable danger struck.
Swish!
The Coiling Dragon Halberd rang out with a heavy thud as it swung toward him.
The black-clad man drew his blade and slashed back.
Clang!
On the rooftop, both of them staggered back a few steps.
“You... you’re Ye Tian!”
Seeing the young man behind him, the black-clad man’s face twisted with shock. He had not expected it to be Ye Tian.
Ye Tian held the halberd, glaring coldly at the man. “Sent by the Xu family?”
“Go to hell!”
The black-clad man hurled a handful of flying darts.
Ye Tian’s palm swirled. The blue flame materialized like a solid shield, blocking the darts.
Nascent Spirit Stage!
The black-clad man’s face changed.
He had thought this useless-veined kid would be easy prey.
But it turned out Ye Tian was already at the Nascent Spirit early stage.
Flee!
Despite being at the Nascent Spirit middle stage himself, the man chose to retreat without hesitation.
But before he could, the Coiling Dragon Halberd was already hurtling toward him! With a clean, brutal arc, it lopped off his head.
The headless body gushed blood as it tumbled off the inn’s rooftop.
“Fourth Brother!”
“They killed Fourth Brother!”
The other black-clad men waiting below saw the corpse and their expressions shifted.
Before they could react, Ye Tian’s shadow appeared behind them like a demon, silent and cold.
“Who sent you?”
Ye Tian brandished his halberd, blocking their escape.
His eyes were icier than death itself, carrying the power to freeze blood in the veins.
The nearest black-clad man opened his mouth to speak, but before a word came out,
Shink!
The Coiling Dragon Halberd pierced his heart, killing him instantly.
“It’s... it’s...”
The remaining two stammered in sheer terror.
They were both spiritual practitioners at the same stage as him—how could this kid cut them down like chopping radishes!
Ye Tian raised his Coiling Dragon Halberd, ready to strike, but a long spear swept through the curtain of rain, blocking him steadily.
“I told them to make a move!”
Qi Zun held his spear, stepping back to keep his distance as he stared coldly at Ye Tian, his eyes frosty.
“Where’s that bitch Xu Yiyun? Tell her to get the hell out here! Damn it, she cheated on me!”
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.
