The Supreme Martial King Shocking All Realms Chapter 1 - 1: Ferocious Older Sister_1
"Hua Wanru, everything you possess and every achievement you've claimed is due to my efforts. It was I, Yang Chen, who rescued and raised you, turning you into a Heaven's Proud Daughter who is worshipped by the masses. I treated you with nothing but kindness, yet I never imagined you would turn your back on me today!"
Within the grand and opulent Purple Gold Hall, a youth named Yang Chen, clad in purple robes, gazed at the ethereal and stunning woman standing before him. He let out a soft sigh, his voice heavy with a sense of tragic helplessness.
The young woman possessed a face of exquisite beauty and pale skin. However, her expression was currently twisted with mockery, and her gaze was devoid of warmth. "Yang Chen, it is true that you saved and nurtured me, but what of it? Am I obligated to be indebted to you, to feel gratitude, or to offer thanks?"
"Hahaha, truly laughable! Yang Chen, you are hailed as a once-in-a-generation prodigy, but that title is limited to your intellect alone. You possess zero talent for Martial Arts cultivation and are destined to never walk that path in this life. Ultimately, you are nothing but trash. There is a vast chasm between a mere prodigy and a true genius. Your destiny is to be crushed beneath my heel. Hehe, you have no further utility to me, and your entire fortune and every pill formula you own shall become mine. Now, you may go and die."
With a casual wave of her hand, the hall was flooded with brilliant, radiant colors. Yang Chen could do nothing but accept his grim fate, perishing with a heart full of bitter resentment.
Thus did the legendary Alchemy Genius, Yang Chen, meet his end.
...
North Mountain County, the desolate Great Wilderness, Yang Family.
Inside an old room, the sobbing of two women echoed. A slightly older girl was clutching a handsome but deathly pale youth in her arms. Tears streamed down her face, her mournful expression enough to break anyone's heart. Her sorrowful beauty was so profound it naturally stirred sympathy.
The girl wailed, "My brother Yang Chen was pushed to suicide by those two bastards from the Wang family! I, Yang Caidie, will never forgive them!"
While she cried out in a fit of rage and hatred, she failed to notice that her brother—who was supposed to be a corpse—suddenly twitched his fingers within her embrace.
"Where... where am I?" Thousands of memories flashed through Yang Chen's consciousness like lightning.
Had he not already perished?
He was Yang Chen, the peerless Alchemy Genius whose name once shook the heavens, the undisputed Number One Alchemy Genius of the Imperial Domain. By the age of twenty-two, he had reached the very peak of the Way of Alchemy. Tragically, his downfall was caused by trusting the wrong person—the woman he had raised with his own hands.
He had died in a state of fury, never expecting that he would be granted a second chance through rebirth.
A flood of memories belonging to the original occupant of this body surged into his mind.
"The boy who took his own life was also named Yang Chen? We share the same name?" Yang Chen rapidly processed the information.
He was currently in North Mountain County, a lawless and war-torn land that felt like a place of exile. His specific location was the remote Great Wilderness, within a common clan known as the Yang family.
In his previous life, he would never have set foot in such a godforsaken region as North Mountain County.
The original Yang Chen had also been an alchemist, yet his talent for the craft was abysmal. He was weak-willed and lacked any ambition. After losing more than half of his sister's wealth in a gambling match, he had hanged himself out of sheer humiliation.
Notably, this Yang Chen was only thirteen years old at the time of his death.
"This Yang Chen was truly pitiful. He possessed the Martial Arts talent I craved in my past life, yet he threw it away for suicide. Perhaps my arrival here is a destined stroke of fate." Yang Chen quickly absorbed the core of these memories.
He intended to contemplate further, but he suddenly felt a sensation of suffocation. Opening his eyes slightly, he realized his sister, Yang Caidie, was holding him so tightly that her ample chest was pressed firmly against his face.
The soft contact caused Yang Chen's face to flush red. To be honest, he had rarely experienced such intimacy with a woman before.
At that moment, Yang Caidie screamed in fury, "The Wang family! I will make them pay for my brother's life with their own! If no one else dares to challenge them, I will!"
"Young lady, please, you must not be reckless! Even the Yang Family Patriarch fears the power of the Wang family. Going there now is no different from seeking your own death!" The maid desperately tried to restrain Yang Caidie, terrified of her impulsive anger.
Yang Caidie gritted her teeth, her beautiful face red with rage. "I have only one brother, and he was murdered by those two animals from the Wang family! As his older sister, if I do not seek justice for him, who will?"
Yang Chen, who was still being 'smothered' in her arms, witnessed this scene. Fearing his hot-headed sister would do something foolish, he struggled to make a sound as he gasped for air.
He had to speak up.
If he didn't, he might actually be killed by Yang Caidie's embrace despite surviving death.
Yang Caidie was still consumed by her desire for vengeance against the Wang family, but she was stunned when the brother she thought was dead suddenly began to move in her arms, showing signs of life.
