Chapter 1 Rebirth
Chen Xuan walked back from his grandfather's place, returning to his own courtyard. His grandfather's words made Chen Xuan realize the life and death crisis facing their family. If he were to escape on his own, Chen Xuan wouldn't do that - abandoning his family and living a life of cowardice. He couldn't bring himself to do it, so Chen Xuan decided to take matters into his own hands and attack both families during the Lantern Festival.
When I walked, my parents called me to go over for dinner in the evening. Chen Xuan calmed down his emotions and didn't think about these things anymore. Now is the time to enjoy the family's reunion. Arriving at the dining hall, both father and mother were waiting for me.
"Xuan'er, you're here, hurry up and eat."
Mother shouted.
The restaurant was filled with the sound of laughter and chatter, a family happily finishing their dinner. The father also asked about the Sunset Mountains, Chen Xuan briefly explained, but his father didn't continue to ask where his kung fu came from.
Chen Xuan returned to his own room and asked his father to come over in the evening. Chen Xuan wanted to try infusing spiritual energy into his father's body, and if successful, his father would quickly enter the Spiritual Warrior Realm as well, but it also came with danger.
Lao Li told himself that he could try, perhaps the spiritual power in his body had already neutralized the quality of spiritual power, one level lower than spiritual power and one level higher than true power, Chen Xuan dared to try.
Sitting on the bed, Chen Xuan had been converting his true energy into spiritual energy every day for the past few days. In about a month's time, he would be able to convert all of his true energy into spiritual energy, thereby reaching the Spiritual Warrior Realm.
An hour later, someone gently knocked on Chen Xuan's door.
"Dad, come on in, the door isn't locked."
The door creaked open and his father walked in.
"Xuaner, you asked me to come over tonight this afternoon, what's going on?"
Chen Xuan's father hurriedly asked after entering the house.
"Dad, please sit down first."
Chen Xuan finished speaking and poured a cup of water for his father.
Chen Xuan slowly told his father about the spiritual power in his body. At first, his father didn't pay much attention to it. But when Chen Xuan said that he had spiritual power and would reach the Spiritual Martial Realm in another month, his father suddenly stood up with a start.
"Xuaner, is what you said true?"
"Dad, this time I called you over, it's because I want to transfer the spiritual energy in my dantian to your body. If successful, Father will also quickly reach the Spiritual Martial Realm."
Chen Xuan did not conceal anything.
"But there's also a risk, if Father's body can't withstand the spiritual energy, it may lead to a spiritual explosion. What does Father plan to do? If Father thinks it's feasible, I'll try it out tonight."
Chen Xuan continued.
Chen Xuan's father remained silent for a while, then lifted his head, with a resolute gaze in his eyes.
"Xuan Er, your father has been stuck at the 9th rank for ten years, and now there's such an opportunity, I don't want to give it up."
As a martial artist, everyone hopes that their path as a martial artist will go further, let alone Chen Xuan's father is a martial arts enthusiast.
It's not as serious as Chen Xuan said, Chen Xuan just wants to make his father determined, as a martial artist, he must have a brave heart, if Chen Xuan tells his father that there is no danger at all, then it will not arouse his father's pursuit of martial arts.
It has been ten years since the nine ranks were abolished, and Chen Xuan's original martial arts enthusiasm had long been extinguished. Chen Xuan gave him an opportunity to stimulate his father to pursue martial arts again, which was Chen Xuan's true intention.
"Let's get ready."
The two immediately began making preparations.
"Dad, don't worry, I'll immediately transfer a strand of spiritual energy from my body into your dantian."
Chen Xuan finished speaking and activated the Tianxuan Decree, slowly channeling the spiritual energy from his dantian to his right hand, which he then placed on his father's back.
Although Lai Lao said that the spiritual power had been neutralized, Chen Xuan was still not at ease. A strand of fine spiritual power flowed out from Chen Xuan's hand and carefully controlled it to flow into his father's body, passing through the meridians and arriving at his father's dantian.
Chen Xuan's father felt a sudden jolt throughout his body, and his dantian had a kind of swelling sensation. However, after half a cup of tea time, this swelling sensation slowly disappeared. The spiritual power in the building successfully circulated up and down in his dantian.
Chen Xuan stood up.
"Dad, as long as you can refine this strand of spiritual energy and merge it with the true energy in your body, you'll be able to reach the Spiritual Warrior Realm."
Chen Xuan was also very excited.
Chen Xuan's father was a little unbelievable that he would soon reach the spiritual martial realm, which was his dream come true.
Looking inward at one's own dantian and discovering that there is indeed a spiritual energy within it, only then can one understand just how extraordinary their son is.
"Xuan Er, you must never tell anyone that you can infuse spiritual energy into someone else's body. If people find out about your incredible ability, they'll force you to serve those powerful families and clans as a spiritual energy supplier for their Ninth-Grade cultivators. That would put our entire family in danger, do you understand?"
"I got it, Dad. I won't tell anyone; I just used my spiritual power on you, and when I reach the Spiritual Martial Realm, I won't be able to casually use my spiritual power on someone's body, or else they'll explode."
"You go rest early, I'm going back."
Chen Xuan's father left Chen Xuan's room with an excited expression.
"See Father off."
Chen Xuan sat down cross-legged and transformed his elixir field's spiritual energy.
In the Wu family's main hall, Wu Peng's body was laid out. Wu Hao's face was gloomy as he looked at his second brother's corpse. The people beside him didn't dare to make a sound.
"Who can tell me what's going on? When we went to intercept Chen Xuan, the family didn't leak any information. The old man of the Chen family couldn't have known. We ambushed Chen Xuan in a small alley, did someone tip him off?"
Wu Hao swept his gaze over the people present.
"Household master! Is it possible that Chen Jia's old couple happened to pass through the alley and caught up with us just as we were about to kill this little beast Chen Xuan?"
An elder analyzed.
"Lately, there hasn't been any news of a Lingwu Realm cultivator entering the town. Looking at Second Master's way of death, it seems like he didn't put up much resistance before being killed. The attacker must have been at least in the Lingwu Realm. A top expert from tomorrow wouldn't be able to achieve a one-hit kill on Second Master."
Another middle-aged man said.
"Everyone is already dead, it's no longer important who killed them. I want the entire Chen family to be buried with my second brother and son. Take Second Master's body down, don't bother with the funeral rites. I want my second brother to see with his own eyes how the Chen family was destroyed."
The scene fell silent for a moment, and everyone's heart was extremely heavy.
"What has Mr. Liu been up to lately?"
Wu Hao asked after a moment of silence.
"Master of the house, you suspect it was Mr. Liu who did it, but wasn't Mr. Liu invited by us to deal with the Chen family? Recently, Mr. Liu has been staying in the courtyard prepared for him by our family and hasn't come out. Every two days, he asks us to replace his concubine with a new one, and every day he's indulging in carnal pleasures. Master of the house, where did you find such a helper? Seven or eight of our family's daughters have been ruined by him."
A man said with an angry tone.
"I know what to do, once I've settled the Chen family's affairs, I'll ask him to leave."
