Chapter 14: Reborn? Reincarnated?
“According to how history originally unfolded, the Su Family should have been…”
Su Yang looked at the group of companions playing in front of him, his heart overwhelmed with confusion.
He clearly remembered that in his past life, when the Li Family came demanding an alchemy formula and was refused, they flew into a rage out of humiliation.
Afterwards, they exterminated the entire Su Family.
He alone survived, merely because he had sneaked out to play and hadn’t yet returned.
He could still recall with piercing clarity the despair and helplessness he felt when he saw the Su Residence dyed red with blood from afar.
Even though the Su Family had already been in decline for as long as Su Yang could remember—bullied by the powerful families, with barely enough cultivation resources to go around—
As for that family leader who once suppressed all of Tianwu, he had only heard of him in old tales.
Yet Su Yang still loved his family deeply, because the Su Family fiercely protected their own, and all family members stood united.
Compared to those other so-called great families, only the Su Family felt like a true family—
They would cheer or rage together over the joy or shame of a single member.
From that day onward, Su Yang went into hiding and began cultivating with almost self-torturing intensity.
In less than five years, he annihilated the entire Li Family!
And following the clues, he tracked down and killed every mastermind behind the scenes!
Afterwards, jaded and disheartened, he wandered across heaven and earth—and unexpectedly encountered the love of his life.
Later, he stumbled upon fragments of the legendary treasure, the Nine Tribulations Sword, and by fate’s hand, he managed to gather every single piece.
But in the end, he was betrayed and slain, his Dao destroyed.
He had thought he would die carrying nothing but regrets—
Yet when he turned to look back… he found himself once again at the age of thirteen.
But history had taken a shocking turn!!
Not only had the Su Family not been destroyed—
It was now flourishing, thanks to that family leader who had forcefully come out of seclusion.
In just one night, the once-declining Su Family had reclaimed its place as the dominant force in Tianwu City.
That family leader, who by all rights should have died attempting a breakthrough, had not only survived but had successfully advanced to the External Manifestation Realm Stage.
All of this was drastically different from his past life.
“Forget it—what does it matter? The Su Family still stands, and that’s all that matters!”
A brilliant smile curved Su Yang’s lips.
The fall of the Su Family had been one of the deepest pains in his heart.
When he first realized he had been reborn, his only thought was to change that fate.
Yet now, even though he hadn’t done anything… the Su Family’s crisis was already resolved.
“Qingwu… just wait for me. In this life, I will never let you down again!”
Su Yang seemed to recall something, a hint of melancholy surfacing in his eyes.
At this moment, Su Zhou had finished his day’s cultivation.
In less than half a day, his realm had once again risen by one level.
His cultivation had reached External Manifestation Realm Stage Six, and the blood in his entire body had been fully refined by the Divine Phoenix Myriad Dao Body.
His body now radiated a powerful vitality.
No exaggeration—at this point, the life force in Su Zhou’s blood alone could rival that of a supreme-grade elixir.
His already terrifying physique had become even more monstrous.
Even an ordinary yellow-grade treasured weapon could no longer pierce his skin.
Behind him, two domineering divine phoenix phantoms would occasionally flicker into view.
Each phantom carried fifty percent of Su Zhou’s battle strength.
Through this half-day of cultivation—
Su Zhou discovered that his two peak earth-grade techniques, Autumn of Sorrow and Spring Concealment, seemed to resonate with each other in some mysterious way.
He decided to try running them simultaneously—and sure enough, he made a discovery.
Though Heaven and Earth Spring Concealment focused on absorbing spiritual energy, and Heaven and Earth Mourn in Autumn was a technique of slaughter—
Once activated together, they complemented each other perfectly.
The vibrance of spring and the bleakness of autumn melded into one seamless force.
The killing power of Autumn of Sorrow more than doubled, and the absorption speed of Spring Concealment also increased twofold.
“Interesting. As I suspected, these two techniques must share the same origin. Combined, their synergy is astonishing.”
“Spring Concealment, Autumn of Sorrow… perhaps there’s also summer and winter.”
“If that’s true, then once all four techniques are combined, they might form a true saint-grade technique.”
As Su Zhou pondered the descriptions of the two methods, he began to form a theory in his mind.
Then, a semi-transparent screen appeared before his eyes:
[Host: Su Zhou]
[Realm: External Manifestation Realm Stage Six]
[Family Luck: 400 (Average). Note: At 500, a Family Resource Gift Pack will be unlocked.]
[Techniques: Heaven and Earth Mourn in Autumn, Heaven and Earth Spring Concealment Art, Divine Phoenix Myriad Dao Body]
“Just a hundred more fate points, and I can use the Golden Luck Dragon.”
Su Zhou had always been very curious about the Golden Luck Dragon granted at the beginning.
After all, fate or luck was one of the most mysterious and elusive things in the world.
Some, blessed with great fate, seemed destined for good fortune—falling off a cliff and still discovering treasure.
While others, cursed with misfortune, could die just from drinking cold water.
This Golden Luck Dragon was said to significantly boost family luck and bring boundless blessings.
All of this had completely piqued Su Zhou’s curiosity.
Knock knock knock!
Just as Su Zhou was deep in thought, a series of knocks sounded at the door.
“Patriarch, the family leaders of the Wang and Ma families are here. What do you think…?”
Su Buku’s voice came from outside the door.
“Oh? The Ma Family… and the Wang Family…”
A cold smile appeared on Su Zhou’s lips.
“I haven’t even gone looking for them—yet they’re already delivering themselves to my doorstep.”
