Chapter prologue . Part 1 : Kong Sheng
After shaking his dizzy head, Jiang Chen could feel his mind clearing up again.
‘It’s the year 3486 of the Saint Origin calendar.I was dead for over a hundred years.Jiang Chen, my name is Jiang Chen.Why have I been reborn after a hundred years?’
Jiang Chen, the greatest Saint of the Saint Origin universe.100 years ago, he cut through the sky, broke the door that led through the Realm of Immortals, and opened up a new path for the people of the Saint Origin universe.But, he depleted his last drop of blood and died at the Saint cliff.Never did he think that he would be reborn a hundred years later.
Jiang Chen raised his head and realized he was in a dark, broken room.There were cracks all over the walls, and the door was tightly shut.He was imprisoned.
Jiang Chen could hear someone talking on the other side of the door.
“Brother Yong, he’s the mayor’s only son.The mayor loves him very much, even though he is useless.If the mayor finds out about this, we will be doomed!”
Outside of the room stood two muscular guys, one with a face full of worry.This was a deserted place in Fragrant Sky city.No one come here on a normal day.
“There’s no need to be scared, no one will know about this, not even the mayor.Furthermore, after we drink the blood of this fellow, we will leave Fragrant Sky city immediately!Yang Shuang, I know you don’t want to spend your entire life as a loser!”
Yang Yong said to Yang Shuang with a ferocious look on his face.
After listening to Yang Yong, the look of worry on Yang Shuang’s face was gone, and it immediately changed into the same ferocious look that Yang Yong had on his face.“There’s no return for us!The mayor has spent a fortune on his only son.Since he was born, he’s been fed numerous pills, but is still at the first level of the Qi Jing realm.If that medicine had been given to us, we would’ve already reached the Qi Hai realm!Even the Mortal Core realm wouldn’t be impossible to reach!”
“Those medicines were wasted on him, he may as well let us enjoy them!Let’s wait for 3 more days.After the cleansing medicine has washed away all the impurities in his body, we will drink his blood and improve our own strength!After that, we’ll leave immediately!”
Yang Yong said with a cruel smile on his face.
The conversation between the two was overheard completely by Jiang Chen, who was just reborn into this world.A cruel smile emerged on Jiang Chen’s face after assimilating the memories from his previous life.
“Dreaming about drinking my blood?You shall drink my piss!”
Searching his memories, Jiang Chen discovered who the two people outside were.They were guards from the mayor’s mansion.They actually dared to try and harm him?Dreaming of killing Jiang Chen and drinking his blood?
Jiang Chen never felt nervous.As the greatest Saint in the past, he had gone through countless, dangerous tribulations.Furthermore, the cleansing medicine they fed him for the purpose of removing the impurities in his body would still need 3 days to take effect.3 days, that would be his opportunity to fight back.
Ignoring the two guards outside, Jiang Chen began inspecting his body.He immediately felt excited upon sensing the large amounts of medicine in his body that his father had given him since he was a child.
“This body’s father knows how to feed good medicine to his son, but he doesn’t know that his son’s body can’t absorb them.All the pills were stored in this body, and sooner or later something bad would’ve happened.But for me, this body is awesome!”
Jiang Chen sat there with a smile on his face.He used to be the greatest Saint;for him to absorb the pills stored within this body was a piece of cake.
“These two guards outside even fed me a cleansing medicine.Although it is weak, for this body, the benefits are huge!All the stored medicine in this body will be absorbed by me now!”
After searching his memories for a while, Jiang Chen remembered a skill that could gather the strength from pills and began using it.
As Jiang Chen began using the skill, all the strength from the pills stored in his body began to move all over it.His body started absorbing the strength from the pills!
The pills started refining his body, his bones, his blood, his skin…Everything was being refined!At the same time, the cleansing pills had also taken effect, helping Jiang Chen get rid of the impurities in his body.

After killing Yang Yong and Yang Shuang , Jiang Chen walked out of the house and was greeted by desolate land but when he walked out , he saw a young man in his 15 - 16 years old , wearing a long black cloak and carrying a long sword with a red hilt while black outer lines on his back . His cloak was fluttering behind him while he was looking at Jiang Chen without any shred of emotions.
"Who is that ?" Jiang Cheng tried to search in his memories to find out who he is yet couldn't find any record of this young man at all . The young man has a good looks yet his emotionless expression made him look little less attractive. Long black hairs with those shinning eyes , he was quite handsome .

"Who are you ?" Jiang Chen , as a Great Saint in his previous life wasn't scared by this mysterious youth. The youth didn't replied him . Just a little bit long later , a groups of soldiers equipped in armours and weapons came searching for Jiang Chen .
"Looks like someone is looking for me " saying so ,Jiang Cheng looked far away . Ignoring the youth , Jiang Chen went to meet those soldiers.
…….
The mayor’s mansion had been in chaos the last 3 days while Jiang Chen had been missing. Although the previous Jiang Chen would always do something cruel or nasty, he had never been gone for more than 3 days.
He was the only son of the mayor. Although the mayor never missed a day in scolding him, in his heart he adored Jiang Chen the most. One could easily tell this from all of the precious medicines he fed Jiang Chen.
All the guards in the mayor’s mansion went out in search of their young master. They overturned every single brick available, but there was still no sign of him. Finally, the mayor gave an order that if the young master still couldn’t be found by sunset, all the guards would not need to return.
At the deserted place where Jiang Cheng was imprisoned, a team of guards approached. After searching through all other locations, they finally arrived to this abandoned area.
“Ai, this young master will never give us a break. He must be enjoying his day somewhere, but we are the ones suffering. I’ve not eaten anything all day.”
“Stop complaining, he is the only son of the Mayor. Tomorrow is the marriage engagement date with the Mu Rong family. If we can’t find the young master by then… don’t expect anything good waiting for us.”
“Young master would never come to a remote place like this, we are just wasting our time here… Wait, there’s someone up ahead!”
While all of the guards complained, the guard who led them saw a human figure clad in white clothes walking towards them.
“Young master!”
The guard shouted with a hint of surprise in his eyes. He rubbed his eyes and looked again towards that human figure. Who else could that be except for the young master?
“Captain, it’s young master. We’ve found young master, haha.”
The guard jumped up from where he stood, his face filled with excitement. Tears were almost flowing out of his eyes, as if the person that appeared in front of him was not the young master, and instead, his own father.
“It is the young master! It really is the young master, thank god!”
A few of the guards started running towards Jiang Chen. Even though they didn’t know why their young master would come to a deserted place like this, it didn’t matter. What mattered the most was that they had found their young master, alive and kicking, without looking like he was missing an arm or leg.
“Jiang Cheng, why are all of you here?”
Jiang Chen looked towards the captain. He knew this guy; his name was Jiang Cheng!
“Young master, we finally found you! If you didn’t appear, the mayor would’ve killed us all!”
Jiang Cheng said with a face filled with excitement. It looked like he was about to cry from joy!
Jiang Chen had a puzzled expression on his face. But, due to his intelligence, it didn’t take him more than a split second to understand everything. He had been missing for the last 3 days, so his dad must have been worried to death. He could easily imagine that these guards had not slept well.
Thinking about his father, whom he had yet to meet, Jiang Chen could feel some warmth in his heart. Although he was the greatest Saint in his past life, he never had a friend who was willing to care for him in his previous life. Being an orphan, he never had a chance to know what familial love was.
“Does it look like I’m in bad shape? You don’t have to die. Come, let’s go home.”
Jiang Chen said with a smile.
“Young master, please ride this horse.”
Jiang Cheng hurriedly led his own horse over to Jiang Chen.
“I don’t need it, I will just walk. All of you have worked hard. When we arrive home, everyone can go claim 10 gold coins from the treasury.”
Jiang Chen spoke like nothing had happened.
What? 10… gold coins?
Jiang Cheng almost bit the dust when he heard that. He wasn’t the only one! All the other guards were stunned. 10 gold coins, their wages were only 10 silver coins a month!
Jiang Chen was once the greatest Saint, so he didn’t really need to care too much about money, but for these guards, 10 gold coins was a huge fortune!
What happened to young master? This was not his style at all!
Since when did the young master become so generous?
He was not riding the horse, and since they met up with the young master some moments ago, he had not scolded them like he would always do.
After disappearing for 3 days, the young master had totally changed into another person.
“Let’s go, hurry up and follow young master.”
Jiang Cheng was the first to recover from this huge surprise. All of the other guards sped up and started following their young master. They didn’t even ride on their horses. Who would dare to ride on a horse when their young master walked in front?
Yet when they were all about to leave , they suddenly heard an emotionless voice from their behind "I too am coming with you , Jiang Chen"
when they heard this voice , everyone turned back and finally noticed a young man with his long black cloak and sword on his behind.
"Who is this kid ? How dare he call our young master with his name directly ? How insolence of him ? " one guard said with dissatisfaction voice.
" yes , who do you think you are kid ? Where did you get the courage to call our young master by his name ?" Another dissatisfied guard also showed his dissatisfaction.
But to their words , the young youth just ignored them while walking near Jiang Chen before mounting on a horse .
"…."everything went absolute silence , no one thought he would mount a horse in front of them when even they haven't mounted one !!
"How rude ? How dare you show disrespect to our young master ? You shall receive punishment " with that a guard took his sword out from hus sheath before he tried to attack the youth.
But the youth just looked at the guard without any emotions. The guard was a Level 7 Qi Jing / Qi Realm Cultivator which caused his speed to be abnormal compare to average humans .
"Stop !!" Suddenly , Jiang Chen , the person that was watching the youth from far away ordered his soldier which was heeded by the soldier and pulled his sword back and said to Jiang Chen " young master , he was rude to you .so I was trying to punish him in your stead "
"No need , just ignore him " Jiang Chen ordered his soldier before he looked at the youth and smiled in a friendly way " friend , may I know what's your name ?" He just now felt a very strong and dreadful Aura looming around him when that soldier of his was about to attack this youth so he decided not to offend this mysterious youth before knowing anything about him.
A wiseman would only become an enemy with another person after knowing them better so he wasn't confident about wining against him right now because of the dreadful Aura that this youth gave him.
With an emotionless voice , the youth replied while looking at Jiang Chen " Kong Sheng , but you can call me Blank "
