What? It took me two thousand years just to rebuild a body…
Wei Leng and Hongyan, his childhood sweetheart and fiancée,
were at a campsite on the outskirts of the city, using the earth as their bed and the night sky as their blanket, ready to spend a long night together beneath the heavens.
In the middle of their tender moment, Hongyan suddenly felt her blood and qi surge. Her eyes closed, and she passed away to paradise.
Overcome with grief, Wei Leng held Hongyan’s body in his arms. His life’s splendor was gone, the roads of the world stretched far and wide, and all he wanted was to journey through life’s mortal realm with his fiancée. With all hope lost, Wei Leng prepared to follow her.
A flash of light tore through the darkness and shot toward him.
“You can save her.”
“An elixir to revive her can be found in the cultivation world, 93 billion light-years from here.”
“If you agree, I’ll take your consciousness with me as you transmigrate.”
When Wei Leng nodded, a sinister smile appeared on the old Daoist’s lips.
