C1 There Is an Assassin

In a remote jungle, two wild boars were madly running, startling all the birds and beasts in the jungle.

At the same time, behind the two wild boars, a green youth was drawing his bow and pointing straight ahead.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

The arrow in the young man's hand transformed into a blur as it pierced through the air. With a sharp whistling sound, it shot towards the two wild boars in front of him at lightning speed.

"Aooo …"

The two wild boars' hind legs were pierced through by the young man's arrows. They fell to the ground in a sorry state and rolled around non-stop. They could not help but let out painful howls …

Seeing that his arrow had hit the target, a smile slowly appeared on the face of the youth with the bow in his hand.

"Whiz!"

However, at this moment, a light sound of something tearing through the air suddenly rang out.

Soon after, a blurry black shadow appeared behind the youth. In the hand of the black shadow was a cold dagger!

A muffled "puchi" sound could be heard!

And then, the youth felt an unbearable pain from his back all the way to his chest. His vision began to blur …

"Ling Tianyang!" If you want to blame someone, then blame yourself for offending someone you should not have offended. "

A slightly hoarse voice came from under the black shadow. Shortly afterwards, the black shadow no longer looked at the youth whose life force was rapidly weakening, and its body turned into an afterimage. It turned around and disappeared in the direction of the Kaiyang City.

The youth's body fell heavily to the ground, his face twitching. Scarlet blood continued to flow out from his wounds. His four limbs struggled powerlessly for a few moments before they stopped moving.

"Roar …"

The pungent smell of blood spread in the air of the jungle, quickly attracting a few greedy beasts.

However, at this time, a sudden change occurred.

In the space not far from the youth's body, layers of visible ripples suddenly appeared. A black crack appeared that seemed to be able to swallow everything.

Soon after, a streak of white light shot out from the pitch-black rift, disappearing in a flash in the air …

If anyone was here, they would have noticed that the spot where the white light landed was the boy lying in a pool of blood.

When the white light entered his body, the youth's wounds were immediately covered in a layer of milky white light. Not only did the blood stop flowing, the wounds were also slowly healing.

More importantly, the youth's stopped heartbeat had miraculously recovered.

At the same time, a faint layer of milky white light also rapidly spread from the young man's head to his entire body …

"Roar …"

It was at this moment that the wild beasts that smelled the blood seemed to have encountered an extremely terrifying monster. They all fled into the distance in terror …

Azure Cloud Kingdom, southern part of the city!

In a courtyard within the Ling Family Inner Mansion.

A skinny young man and two young ladies dressed as maids were walking back and forth in the yard anxiously, occasionally turning their heads to look at a closed door in the yard.

"It has already been three days, why hasn't second brother woken up yet?"

The skinny youth frowned as he looked up to the sky with a worried expression, "God, you must protect my brother!"

"Cough cough …"

It was as if the heavens had really heard the skinny youth's inner call. The originally quiet room suddenly emitted a few light coughs.

"Hm!" "This is … brother must have woken up. Hurry up and tell father."

Hearing the soft cough, the skinny young man and the two girls were immediately overjoyed. One of the girls quickly ran out of the courtyard …

….

The events of his life replayed in his mind like a movie.

From the moment he had memories until the final scene of his battle with the Devil Dragon Clan and that group of experts, Ling Tianyang felt that everything was surreal.

Time slowly passed, and it was unknown how much time had passed.

A dream-like scene appeared in front of Ling Tianyang's eyes. Ling Tianyang had suddenly become a young master of a family …

"Well, where am I?"

At a certain moment, Ling Tianyang finally opened his heavy eyes. A unfamiliar yet familiar room appeared in his eyes.

"Weren't I being chased after by the combined Devil Dragon Clan and Calmness Extinction Sect of experts, forced to self-destruct and die with them?"

Staring at the ceiling, Ling Tianyang's eyes started to wander: "Shouldn't I be dead by now?"

"Cough cough …"

Ling Tianyang involuntarily coughed a few times. Suddenly, a huge pain came from within his body. The intense pain caused Ling Tianyang to come back to his senses.

"Sss … my body hurts."

"Am I still alive? Why else would I feel pain? "

Just when Ling Tianyang was filled with doubts, a strong feeling of dizziness suddenly came from his brain.

As time passed, Ling Tianyang finally understood what happened to him as the discomfort in his mind faded a little.

"Haha … I didn't think that my luck would explode like this. Not only did I not die, but I strangely experienced a rebirth."

After Ling Tianyang confirmed that he had truly been reborn, he couldn't help but exclaim in joy.

In his previous life, Ling Tianyang was an orphan with no one to rely on and often worried about having three meals a day. Then, coincidentally, he was selected by the rogue cultivator 'Pharmacy Sovereign' and became Pharmacy Sovereign's only disciple.

From then on, Ling Tianyang and Pharmacy Sovereign relied on each other and became independent cultivators.

Around 200 years ago, Pharmacy Sovereign had entered an ancient mystic realm to search for lucky chances in order to break through a bottleneck in his cultivation. Since then, there had been no news of him …

Since the disappearance of Pharmacy Sovereign, Ling Tianyang had cultivated alone for more than two hundred years. So now, it didn't matter where Ling Tianyang was. There was nothing left for him to worry about.

Through the short period of memory fusion, Ling Tianyang also knew the origin of his current body.

"I wonder if this has some kind of divine will?" "So the owner of this body is also called 'Ling Tianyang'."

Looking at the memories that did not belong to him, Ling Tianyang's expression turned strange!

"Don't worry, 'Ling Tianyang'. Considering how fated we are and how I took over your body, I will definitely take revenge for you when I have the chance in the future."

As soon as Ling Tianyang finished his words, he felt that the spiritual altar had become clear...

"Kacha …"

The tightly-shut door was pushed open from the outside, and a crisp sound could be heard.

Immediately after that, Ling Tianyang saw a few men and women that felt familiar to him walking in.

The first thing that entered Ling Tianyang's eyes was a middle-aged man who seemed to be around forty years old. His face was dignified but did not lose his love.

Turning his gaze to the middle-aged man's back, he saw a skinny young man and two young girls dressed as maids.

"Tianyang, you're finally awake!"

As soon as the middle-aged man entered, he rushed to Ling Tianyang's bedside and carefully grabbed Ling Tianyang's hand. The middle-aged man's eyes were a little red as he looked at Ling Tianyang with concern.

"Who is he? Why do I feel such familiarity! "

"Why do I have an instinctive feeling of affection for him?"

Ling Tianyang could clearly feel the deep care and concern the middle-aged man had for him from his slightly red eyes.

After a moment, Ling Tianyang finally found the answer in his memory.

The middle-aged man in front of him with slightly red eyes was the foster father of Ling Tianyang's current body, the Ling Family Patriarch, Ling Xuan.

"Tianyang, this time you really scared me. How do you feel? But where else is there discomfort? "

"Father, I'm fine now!" The moment Ling Xuan finished speaking, Ling Tianyang looked deeply at Ling Xuan and finally couldn't help but call out to his foster father.

Ling Tianyang was stunned for a moment after he said that. "My soul is no longer the 'Ling Tianyang' from before. Why would I call Ling Xuan my foster father so naturally?"

"Perhaps it's because I've just fused with the original owner of this body's memories that I'm somewhat affected …"

In his previous life, Ling Tianyang was just an orphan. From the bottom of his heart, he really wanted to have a family member that cared for him.

Just now, Ling Tianyang clearly felt a strong sense of fatherly love from Ling Xuan. Ling Tianyang did not reject this feeling, instead, he was a little nostalgic!

Ling Tianyang shook his dizzy head and tried to support himself up with his hands, wanting to sit up.

"Sss …"

However, just as Ling Tianyang made this move, a heart-wrenching pain immediately came from his entire body. It was so painful that Ling Tianyang took a deep breath.

"Second brother, as long as you're fine."

"You should just lie there and rest. Right now, you're still wounded. Don't move …"

Seeing this, the skinny teenager standing next to Ling Xuan hurriedly reached out to support Ling Tianyang. His originally frown turned into a smile as if a heavy burden had been lifted off his shoulders.

"Hm!" "Big brother."

Looking at the skinny youth who seemed to care about him, Ling Tianyang also got the answer from his memory.

This skinny young man was none other than his elder brother who grew up together with Ling Tianyang, Ling Jue.

Ling Jue was the biological son of Ling Xuan, and furthermore, the Young Master of Ling Family.

Although Ling Tianyang and Ling Jue weren't blood brothers, their relationship was even better than other blood brothers.

"Tianyang, we'll listen to your big brother. Lie down and don't move."

"I'll get someone to get Alchemist Xu to come over and check your body right now." Ling Xuan looked at the two brothers, Ling Tianyang and Ling Jue, with a smile on his face.

Following that, a man dressed as a guard quickly left under Ling Xuan's orders …

After the time it took for an incense stick to burn, another fifty people appeared beside the guard who had left earlier. They looked like they were old sages.

There was a simple small wooden case hanging from the old man's shoulder. He slowly walked to Ling Tianyang's bed and carefully felt Ling Tianyang's pulse.

"Leader, don't worry, Tianyang's body is fine now."

After approximately half the time it took to drink a cup of tea, the elder slowly let go of Ling Tianyang's hand.

"Young master Tianyang's body is still very weak right now. As long as you take some time to recover and take some medicine that I made, you will be able to quickly recover."

"It's good that Tianyang is fine. Sorry to trouble you, Apothecary Xu!"

"Cough cough …" Ling Xuan cupped his hands towards the old man. His body couldn't help but cough and his face paled.

"Father, what's wrong?" Ling Tianyang said anxiously.

"Tianyang, I'm fine. It's just that my old illness has returned and I'm fine!"

"Rest well. If you need anything, just call me big brother." Ling Xuan waved his hand and quickly left Ling Tianyang's room.

"Second brother, you don't have to worry, your big brother is here for you!"

"Right now, the most important thing for you is to recuperate from your injuries. We can talk about other things later."

After Ling Xuan left, Ling Jue said, "Second Brother, I won't stop you from resting. If anything happens, just tell Xiaoya or Xiaomei to come and inform me."

"Alright, big brother." Ling Tianyang smiled and nodded.

Soon, Ling Jue also left. At this moment, only the two maidservants were left in Ling Tianyang's room …
