Chapter 1

Under the scorching sunlight, the young man lay among a pile of weeds, his expression somewhat peculiar.

"I left Earth to cultivate for a thousand years, and after being struck down by heavenly tribulation, I actually reincarnated back on Earth!?" Chu Yi found it hard to believe.

He briefly checked his body's condition and found no trace of his cultivation. However, he was somewhat prepared for this.

"Well, since I have another life, I'll start from scratch."

Muttering to himself, he was about to get up when the grass rustled, and a woman in denim shorts squatted down.

Chu Yi's mouth dropped open.

No way!

Does this woman want to...?

Should I shout...?

Chu Yi covered his mouth and widened his eyes.

But he still called out, "Miss, don't relieve yourself here."

The figure in front of him visibly trembled, half-squatting, her body stiffening...

She turned her head mechanically.

Chu Yi then saw that she was an extremely elegant beauty, nearly thirty years old, wearing black-rimmed glasses. She had more maturity and grace than young girls, exuding charm at her age.

Their eyes met, and the scene became awkward.

"Ah!!!"

The elegant beauty let out a scream, panicked, pulled up her pants, and hurriedly left in her black high heels.

Chu Yi, with a firm resolve, was naturally not tempted by such beauty. He found it amusing to encounter such a situation right after reincarnating.

However, before he could leave, an angry voice rang out.

"Scoundrel, you actually peeped at me!" Qin Ran returned, her beautiful eyes filled with fury, wishing to tear the man in front of her to pieces.

She had just returned from abroad, feeling some discomfort due to the change in environment and an upset stomach. With no toilet in the wilderness, she had to relieve herself on the spot, never expecting to be peeped at.

"Come on, your figure is just barely passable." Chu Yi shrugged, which was the truth. He had roamed the immortal world, with formidable strength, and major powers vied to send him beauties—goddesses, demonesses, holy maidens... He had seen it all and remained unmoved.

In his heart, there was only one person.

But to Qin Ran, these words meant something else. In her thirty years, she had never been mocked by a man like this.

Especially when the man stood with his hands in his pockets, looking carefree and not taking her seriously, it made her furious.

"Also, your pants aren't on properly." Chu Yi sincerely reminded her.

Qin Ran hastily looked down and saw her underwear still exposed, feeling both embarrassed and angry, her neck turning red.

"Shameless!"

Perhaps too angry, she took off her high heels and threw them at the man.

Chu Yi's face turned black. In the past, his enemies threw magical artifacts, but now, it was high heels.

Easily dodging, he didn't want to tangle with this woman any further and laughed, "Weren't you in a hurry to relieve yourself? Do you not feel it anymore?"

Qin Ran's face froze!

Reminded by Chu Yi, the suppressed feeling resurfaced, her stomach growling, her delicate features slightly distorted.

Her eyes brimmed with tears, she glared at Chu Yi, and then, with her legs clamped together, she rushed away in a strange posture.

"That was a bit too much." Chu Yi touched his nose and shook his head, "Well, she's a stranger, so I probably won't see her again."

Watching the woman leave, Chu Yi's smile suddenly froze.

"Wait, this woman looks familiar?"

"Oh no, it's her!"

Only then did he recognize her. If his calculations were correct, he had just graduated from university a little over a year ago and had become an intern teacher at the Third High School of Jiujiang City.

And the beauty he just encountered was the new principal!

His immediate superior—Qin Ran.

A mix of confusion, complexity, and shock played out on Chu Yi's face, even his calm demeanor couldn't hide his embarrassment.

"In the previous life, this woman opposed me because of my cousin, trying to get me fired. In this life, I've seen her bottom and even teased her. Won't she torture me to death?"

Chu Yi sighed, his expression turning serious, "But to be fair, this woman is kind-hearted and does it for my own good."

His family background was rather special.

His father came from the upper class Chu family in Qinhua City, the capital of Jiangnan Province. The Chu family held a high status, operating numerous real estate and technology companies, well-known throughout Jiangnan.

Unfortunately, his father refused to submit to the family's arranged marriage and secretly married a stranger.

The Chu family was enraged, and this offended the intended bride's family. The Chu family's situation worsened over the next few years, all due to this incident.

What made them even angrier was that the woman, after giving birth to a son and a daughter, disappeared without a trace, even the powerful Chu family couldn't find her.

Heartbroken, Chu Yi's father, Chu Shanhe, brought Chu Yi and his sister, Chu Mu, to Jiujiang City.

As for Qin Ran, she was related to Chu Yi's cousin. In the vast Chu family, only a few cared about Chu Yi's family, and his cousin, Chu Yunyun, was one of them.

Chu Yunyun always wanted Chu Yi's family to return, but both Chu Yi and Chu Shanhe were stubborn. So, she asked her close friend, Qin Ran, to find ways to make Chu Yi unemployed, hoping he would have no choice but to return to the Chu family.

"Mom, who are you? I never knew your identity in the previous life, but in this life, I will definitely find out."

Chu Yi was heartbroken. When his mother left, he was only four years old, and his memories were vague. His sister was just a newborn.

During that time, his father, Chu Shanhe, drank himself into a stupor, aging ten years.

Especially, there was not even a single photo of his mother at home, which was highly unusual, indicating there was more to the story.

"In the previous life, I was too weak and powerless. In this life, I will make you pay a hundredfold."

He returned to this life for his family, friends, and the girl who took a knife for him before dying.

The wrath of the King of Hell, with a million corpses and rivers of blood.

But at this moment, Chu Yi was not much stronger than an ordinary person.

His body was empty, his spiritual energy completely dissipated, leaving him somewhat helpless.

"A thousand years of cultivation, it seems I have to start over."

Cultivation has eight major realms.

Postnatal, Prenatal, Seed of the Dao, Dao Mansion, Yuan婴, Divine Connection, Immortal Venerable, Supreme.

In the previous life, Chu Yi's cultivation was at the Immortal Venerable realm, invincible below the Supreme.

"Let's not rush into cultivation. I need to find a place with abundant spiritual energy first..."

He took out his phone and checked the date.

"Wait, today is the school staff gathering before the start of the semester."

"Does that mean I'll see that woman again soon?"

Thinking of this, Chu Yi felt a headache.

...

Jiujiang City is located in the southern part of Jiangnan Province, barely a second-tier city.

Chu Yi arrived at the Kai Sheng Hotel, a four-star hotel, ranking among the top three in the area.

The school had reserved a large hall. When Chu Yi arrived, he saw the vice principal introducing Qin Ran to the teachers of each grade.

Qin Ran had changed into a professional suit, her smile perfectly measured.

"Chu Yi is here?" The vice principal, with keen eyes, pulled Chu Yi over and introduced him, "This is our new principal, Qin Ran. She's a Ph.D. from the United States, very beautiful, and will be your immediate superior. You still have three months to become a full-time teacher, so you should perform well in front of Principal Qin."

"Principal Qin, this is Chu Yi, responsible for the Chinese class of Class 18, Grade 1. He interned for a month before the summer break."

Chu Yi looked at Qin Ran awkwardly, seeing her face more colorful than a kaleidoscope.

"Chu Yi?" Qin Ran smiled insincerely.

"Principal Qin, hello. Nice to meet you, please take care of me." Chu Yi's smile was forced, but with a thousand years of life, his face was thick enough to extend his hand.

Qin Ran suppressed her anger, composed herself, and showed a faint smile, regaining her cold and authoritative demeanor. She didn't shake Chu Yi's hand, instead, she looked him up and down and gently pushed her glasses up with her index finger.

"I look forward to your performance."

Chu Yi's face twitched.

Finished, I've completely offended this woman...
