Chapter 2: Birth in a strange world

Chatter, Chatter!

Tang Jian heard the chatter coming from a woman's mouth while lying down on a soft bed with his eyes closed.

Not understanding a single word, Tang Jian assumed that his private jet had crashed in a foreign country, and he was now receiving treatment in a hospital.

Unable to open his eyes clearly, Tang Jian's worries increased due to the strange sensations he was experiencing.

"Hm... That's strange. Why am I unable to open my eyes, and why does it feel like my arms and legs have become shorter? Why can't I feel any pain, even though I nearly died? They must have given anesthesia to me. But wait, why can I still feel my limbs, even after being anesthetized? That's so strange. It must be a side effect of the medication they gave me." These questions and excuses flooded Tang Jian's mind due to these unusual feelings.

Tang Jian wasn't stable yet and felt extremely confused in this uncomfortable situation.

Not only was he uncomfortable, but Tang Jian was also upset because he believed that if he survived this situation, his plans of becoming a martyr in other people's eyes would be ruined.

Tang Jian had decided to leave the world behind, but he still wanted to die a worthy death and be seen as a martyr by everyone else.

Knowing Tang Jian well, Yang Min also chose to use this method of attention-seeking assassination instead of a silent approach, like using slow poison to kill Tang Jian.

However, Tang Jian didn't concern himself with such matters, as he could simply prepare another stage for himself again.

But perhaps Tang Jian was being delusional. He came to realize this fact when he felt as if he was really tiny, as someone lifted him up.

"No, this can't be just a side effect of the medication. Maybe I'm being used as a test subject for some weird experiment. Nevertheless, I have to force my eyes open and see what's going on," Tang Jian thought to himself.

As he tried to open his eyes, he vividly saw that he was being lifted up by a rude person. This rude and fat individual grabbed Tang Jian's legs and lifted him upside down.

As if lifting him wasn't enough, this rude person began spanking Tang Jian. Feeling extreme pain, Tang Jian started crying.

"Congratulations, miss! You have successfully given birth to a healthy and adorable baby boy," Tang Jian became even more confused upon hearing these words from a woman.

Now, Tang Jian could see a little bit more clearly. What he saw was not something horrible, but a soothing scene that anyone would love to watch.

There was a beautiful lady lying in front of him with tearful eyes. She wasn't crying due to something sad but was actually extremely happy. It felt like a scene where a mother prepares herself to embrace the child she had just given birth to.

"Huh!... What is this, a prank? Am I really a baby who has just been born? But this doesn't feel like a dream or prank. Have I, Tang Jian, really become a baby?" Tang Jian tried to speak these words, but to others, it just sounded like he was trying to scream and cry due to his hunger.

"Alright, here you go. Feed him well," the rude woman who had spanked Tang Jian said these words to the beautiful woman lying in bed, while carefully passing Tang Jian to her.

Even for Tang Jian, who was once the most influential person on Earth, this situation was extremely awkward to the point where he closed his eyes tightly to save himself from this upcoming embarrassment.

Even though Tang Jian was 53 years old, as a baby, he would need to feed on his mother's milk. After clenching his fists tightly, Tang Jian forgot about his embarrassment and satisfied his hunger.

"Oh, my baby! Look at how adorable you are. You will become just as handsome as your dad," another rude and ugly person entered the room, falsely claiming himself to be handsome.

Time went by quickly, and now Tang Jian was already 3 years old.

After being reincarnated in a new world, Tang Jian became aware that he had been born as the third child of a ruined cultivation family. In this family, Tang Jian had one elder brother, one elder sister, one younger brother who was born just a year ago, and both of his parents.

Amidst his dilemma, Tang Jian gathered as much information as he could about this world.

This world, known as the Thousand Dao Realm, was a classic cultivation world where cultivators could fly in the sky and split mountains and seas with their swords.

Unfortunately, there wasn't much known about the world of cultivators to a mortal like him. His family was once a major cultivation family, but now it lay in ruins, to the point where not a single person in his family was a cultivator or aspired to become one.

While Tang Jian's father was aware of the world of cultivators, he kept silent about it, even after Tang Jian threw tantrums every day.

The only answer Tang Jian received from his father was, "My son, this world of cultivators is extremely ruthless. You should never step on the path to become an immortal. Otherwise, you will end up becoming a ruthless person who only cares about becoming a god."

After hearing those words from his father, Tang Jian became aware of two facts. First, there were immortal cultivators in this world, and second, these immortals strived to become gods. Hence, gods existed in this world, and an immortal could become a god after reaching a certain stage in their cultivation.

Although the information Tang Jian received from his father was vague, it was enough to make him extremely excited.

Tang Jian, who had once lost his dream due to the cruel reality in his past world, could now see endless possibilities and opportunities in front of him that could make his dream come true.
