Yun Che's consciousness gradually awakened.

What's going on... Could it be that I'm not dead yet? I clearly fell off the Jueyun Cliff, how could I still be alive! And there's no pain at all... not even a hint of discomfort? What's happening?

Yun Che suddenly opened his eyes, quickly sat up, and was startled to find himself on a soft, large bed, with a large red canopy above, creating a festive atmosphere.

"Ah! Xiao Che! You... you're awake!"

A surprised girl's voice came from his ear, and a girl's face appeared in his line of sight.

This was a girl who looked only about fifteen or sixteen years old, wearing a long emerald green dress. Her face was delicate and fair, her lips were bright and red, her nose was delicate and upturned, and her beautiful eyes, filled with deep surprise, were like a clear, crystal spring, clear and transparent, charming and captivating. Her entire face was gentle and beautiful, radiant and dazzling. At such a young age, she already had such a graceful demeanor; it was easy to imagine how stunningly beautiful she would be when she grew up.

Looking at this girl who was so close, Yun Che was momentarily dazed, and the three words slipped out of his mouth subconsciously: "Auntie?"

The girl raised her snow-white wrist, and her jade-like hand pressed on Yun Che's forehead. Her expression relaxed a bit, and she said happily, "Your body temperature has almost returned to normal, that's great. I was almost scared to death just now. Xiao Che, do you feel any discomfort now?"

Facing the girl's deeply concerned gaze, Yun Che shook his head somewhat woodenly... his mind was completely in a state of detachment.

"You rest for a while first. I'll go tell your grandfather right away. Today is your big day, and when you suddenly fainted, your grandfather almost went crazy. He personally went out to invite Master Situ just now."

In her urgency, the girl did not notice the unusual expression on Yun Che's face. She pressed his shoulder to make him lie back down, then hurriedly left.

The door closed, and Yun Che sat up from the bed again, both hands immediately grabbing his head.

This place was Liuyun City, the easternmost small city of the Cangfeng Empire, one of the seven countries of the Tianxuan Continent, and he was the only grandson of the fifth elder of the Xiao family in Liuyun City—Xiao Che! He had just turned sixteen this year.

This was his current identity.

His memories overlapped with the memories of the twenty-some years on the Cangyun Continent, making him feel a bit disoriented.

I am Xiao Che... then what about the memories of the Cangyun Continent?

Could it be that after dying on the Cangyun Continent, I was reborn into this body?

No! I am clearly Xiao Che! Everything in this room is extremely familiar to me. From childhood to now, all my memories are clear and distinct, everything is something I have personally experienced, it can't be that I have stolen someone else's memories!

Could everything on the Cangyun Continent have been just a dream? And after falling off the Jueyun Cliff, I suddenly woke up?

But the memories of the Cangyun Continent are equally clear... those twenty-four years of love, hate, and entanglements, how could they possibly be a dream!

What's going on?

Yun Che... who should now be Xiao Che, after a moment of disorientation, his eyes finally slowly calmed down, and his thoughts gradually became clear.

It was just dawn, and the sky outside was not yet bright. Today was the day of his wedding to Xia Qingyue. Two hours ago, he was woken up by his aunt, changed into a red wedding robe, and drank a bowl of porridge that his aunt had cooked for him. Then, he felt weak all over... and then he knew nothing.

Until he woke up just now.

At this moment, a strange taste came from his lips. Xiao Che pursed his lips slightly, and his face changed instantly.

This is... Heartslayer Powder!!

During the years on the Cangyun Continent, Yun Che, with the Heavenly Poison Pearl in his body, knew all the poisons in the world. He could identify the name and composition of any poison with just a light sniff. At the same time, with the Heavenly Poison Pearl, he was immune to all poisons, and no matter how powerful the poison, it could not harm him.

Heartslayer Powder is made from Soul-destroying Grass and Purple-striped Rose, and when dissolved in water, it is colorless and odorless. After entering the body, it can take a person's life in just a few seconds, and there would be no trace of poisoning on the body.

Yun Che's eyes darkened, and he instantly understood.

It turns out that he was not unconscious just now, but the porridge he drank contained Heartslayer Powder, and he was poisoned to death! After death, he was reborn on the Cangyun Continent, and after falling off the Jueyun Cliff... he was reborn back into the body that had just died in his previous life!

Although this sounds like a fairy tale, it is the only possibility Yun Che can think of!

Wait... if that's the case, my current body has no resistance to poison, so why am I unharmed after coming into contact with Heartslayer Powder on my lips?

A slight abnormal sensation came from the palm of his left hand. Yun Che raised his left hand and was startled to find that there was a green, circular mark on his palm.

The shape, color, and size of this mark were exactly the same as the Heavenly Poison Pearl!

Before falling off the Jueyun Cliff, in a desperate situation, he swallowed the Heavenly Poison Pearl, not knowing what consequences it would bring. Now, this mark on his hand seemed to indicate that the Heavenly Poison Pearl had also come with him!

"Heavenly Poison Pearl..." Yun Che muttered, staring at the mark that resembled the Heavenly Poison Pearl.

As his voice fell, a green light suddenly emitted from the mark on his palm, and his vision instantly blurred. His brain felt a slight dizziness, making him close his eyes subconsciously. When he opened his eyes again, the world around him had turned into a vast green expanse.

This green world was boundless, with the faint aura of the Heavenly Poison Pearl permeating everywhere. Yun Che was stunned for a while before finally realizing that his spirit had entered the internal world of the Heavenly Poison Pearl.

It turns out that the internal world of the Heavenly Poison Pearl was so vast! Even more incredibly, by swallowing the Heavenly Poison Pearl without considering the consequences, it had followed him through the rebirth and seemed to have become a part of his body!

Since he could enter, he could also leave.

Yun Che closed his eyes, and with a slight mental command, the green world around him quickly dissipated. When he opened his eyes again, he was back in the familiar room.

Looking at the light green mark on his palm, Yun Che slowly smiled... Although he didn't know why such an incredible thing had happened, he had not only been reborn but also retained the memories of two lifetimes. Perhaps, it was the heavens, dissatisfied with his tragic fate in both lives, that had given him a chance to be reborn!

Yun Che was pursued by countless top experts on the Cangyun Continent and ultimately perished, but he had stirred up the world, how glorious! However, his current body was ordinary... to put it bluntly, it was utterly worthless.

On the Tianxuan Continent, spiritual power was supreme. Although Yun Che was born into the Xiao family and was the grandson of the strongest fifth elder, Xiao Lie, he was already sixteen years old, but his spiritual power was still at the first level of the Initial Spirit Realm. He started cultivating at the age of seven and a half, entered the first level of the Initial Spirit Realm at the age of eight, and for the next eight years, his spiritual power did not advance at all, making him the subject of ridicule in the Xiao family. Later, Xiao Lie had the first physician of Liuyun City, Situ Yun, examine his body, and the result was like a bolt from the blue—he had congenital blood damage, and the damage was extremely severe, almost impossible to repair. In this state, Yun Che would remain at the first level of the Initial Spirit Realm for life, and no matter how hard he tried, he would not make any progress.

Even if he trained to the point of exhaustion, he would only remain at the first level of the Initial Spirit Realm for life. Such a person on the Tianxuan Continent would undoubtedly be at the very bottom, becoming a laughingstock in the Xiao family. If it weren't for his grandfather, Xiao Lie, being the strongest in the Xiao family and even the entire Liuyun City, no one would even bother to look at him.

The Xiao family, as one of the three major cultivation families in Liuyun City, had countless experts, and the younger generation was full of talent. Yun Che was essentially a non-essential existence, and even if he died one day, few people would care. However, today, someone had used the priceless, traceless poison Heartslayer Powder to kill him, and the reason was clear to the current Yun Che.

Because today was the day of his wedding to Xia Qingyue.

Xia Qingyue was the same age as him, also sixteen years old. But at such a young age, her spiritual power was said to have already reached the tenth level of the Initial Spirit Realm, about to break through and enter the Entry Spirit Realm. At sixteen, she was the first in the Xia family in a hundred years to reach such a realm, and among the younger generation in the entire Liuyun City, no one could compare to her. There were even rumors that if her progress continued, in a few decades, she might become the first person in the Xia family to enter the Earth Spirit Realm... or even the Sky Spirit Realm, which no one in Liuyun City had dared to dream of in a hundred years!

More importantly, she not only had astonishing talent but was also a beauty, recognized as the first beauty of Liuyun City. Almost all the young talents in Liuyun City with some capital were infatuated with her, and if the Xia family held a marriage contest, the line of people would stretch from the north gate to the south gate of Liuyun City.

Such a girl, who was the pride of Liuyun City in both talent and appearance, was to marry the most useless and hopeless member of the Xiao family. Many people in Liuyun City were so frustrated and angry... it was like a proud lotus being planted in cow dung that no one even bothered to look at!

Those who were infatuated with Xia Qingyue naturally hated and resented Xiao Che, and more were unwilling... that someone would try to poison him was not surprising to the current Yun Che.

"Indeed, beauty is a curse." Yun Che got out of bed and stood up, muttering to himself. But thinking of Xia Qingyue's stunning beauty, he grinned, "But to marry such a wife is a pretty good start."
