The Supreme Martial King Shocking All Realms Chapter 2 - 1: Ferocious Older Sister_2

"Yang Chen, are you alright? Please, don't scare your sister like this." Tears of deep concern welled up in Yang Caidie's eyes.

Observing the frantic expression on Yang Caidie's face and reflecting on the circumstances of his own demise, Yang Chen let out a silent sigh. He opened his eyes and spoke softly, "Older Sister, I am fine."

"Young Master, are you... are you truly okay?" The lovely maidservant leaped up, her voice trembling with excitement.

Gripping Yang Chen's hand with all her strength, Yang Caidie scolded him, "Yang Chen, you must never think of throwing your life away again. If you cannot find a way to vent your rage, your sister will go and fight the Wang Family this very instant."

"No, Sister, you mustn't!" Yang Chen was genuinely alarmed by her words.

He gazed intently at Yang Caidie as the memories his predecessor held of her flooded his mind.

This young woman before him was named Yang Caidie.

At eighteen years old, she was five years older than her brother, Yang Chen. Within the Great Wild Hundred Clans, she was a renowned figure, celebrated as one of the 'Three Great Golden Hairpins' for her exceptional beauty. However, it was not her looks that people feared most, but her volatile temper.

Indeed, Yang Caidie was famous for being fierce and confrontational. She possessed a stubborn streak so intense that once her mind was set, not even nine oxen could pull her back. While some might mistake her directness for simplicity, she was actually highly intelligent, possessing a high aptitude and immense potential as the premier female genius of the Yang family.

Nevertheless, her brilliance did not prevent her from being aggressively unrefined, often speaking her mind without any regard for the fallout.

Because of this, no one dared to provoke Yang Caidie.

Most significantly, Yang Caidie was fiercely protective of her younger brother, Yang Chen.

It was a well-known tale that when Yang Chen was only three, he was bitten by a Black-haired Wolf kept by the Sun family. In response, the then eight-year-old Yang Caidie had stormed the Sun family compound brandishing a knife, intent on slaughtering the beast. She had only been stopped and dragged home by the intervention of the Yang family Elders.

Yet, Yang Caidie was not one to let a grudge go. Years later, during her teens, she seized a moment when the wolf was unguarded and killed it with a series of lethal strikes. She even left a brazen note upon the animal's carcass: "Those who bully my brother will die – Culprit Yang Caidie."

At that time, her literacy was lacking; unable to recall the character for "beast," she had used the word "man" instead.

Furthermore, by signing herself as the "culprit," she had utterly infuriated the Sun family, leading to endless friction between the two clans.

Recalling these events, Yang Chen realized that his sister was truly the type of person who would risk everything for him, even if it meant clashing with the formidable Wang family. As one of the elite powers among the Hundred Clans, the Wang family was a force few dared to cross. But Yang Caidie’s stubbornness was limitless; she would not hesitate to challenge them.

With these thoughts swirling, Yang Chen rubbed his temples and sighed, "Sister, both of you should head out for now. I wish to be alone for a moment."

"Darling, promise me you won't think of giving up again. If you do, how could your sister and I possibly carry on?" Yang Caidie said, her heart clearly breaking.

Yang Chen gave a light chuckle, "Sister, do not worry. I will not attempt to take my life again. I have come to terms with things now. If nothing else, I cannot bear to see you so distressed."

Seeing that the shadow of suicide had vanished from Yang Chen's eyes, Yang Caidie finally bit her lip and relented. "Very well, sister will leave first. I will have Ming Yue wait just outside. If you need anything at all, simply call for her."

Gu Mingyue, often called Xiao Yue, was Yang Caidie's maid and was destined to become Yang Chen's concubine in the future. She was deeply devoted to both siblings. It was clear that Yang Caidie had chosen well; at fifteen, the girl already showed the signs of becoming a great beauty.

Despite being pursued by many within the Yang family, Gu Mingyue remained steadfastly loyal, fully prepared to fulfill her role as Yang Chen's concubine.

Hearing Yang Caidie's instructions, Gu Mingyue bowed repeatedly, saying, "Young Master, if you have need of Ming Yue, she will be waiting right outside the door."

"Understood." Yang Chen nodded in acknowledgment.

Shortly after, Yang Caidie and Gu Mingyue departed.

Finally alone, Yang Chen exhaled deeply, sifting through his memories while inspecting his new physical form.

"I never imagined that I, Yang Chen, despite my supreme mastery over the Dao of Alchemy and the reverence I commanded, would end up as helpless prey in the end. It all stemmed from my lack of talent in martial arts back then. Even as a grandmaster of pills, I was powerless to resist when Hua Wanru decided I must die."

At this thought, a slow smile spread across Yang Chen's face. "But it seems the heavens have not abandoned me. This original Yang Chen possessed excellent talent for Cultivation, yet he let it go to waste by refusing to walk the path. What a tragedy. In my previous life, I dreamed of practicing martial arts—to stand at the world's summit and look down upon all creation! In this universe, only martial power is eternal."

"While this body's talent might not be the absolute best, it is certainly more than sufficient. Though I could not enter the martial realm in my past life, I was a master at cultivating geniuses. Now that I inhabit this body and possess my previous knowledge, even average talent would be enough. It is a pity the previous Yang Chen was so pathetic, viewed as a complete waste within the clan."

The original owner of this body was a young master of the Yang family, yet he was considered a total failure regarding his Cultivation. In truth, he had significant potential but simply lacked the will to utilize it.

He had lived a life of idle nobility, allowing his physical gifts to rot away.

Hua Wanru!

The name of the woman who had betrayed and plotted against him burned in his mind.

Yang Chen closed his eyes tightly. "Hua Wanru, I raised you to become a powerhouse of your generation, but you should have remembered that your glory came from my hands. Since I had the power to nurture you, I certainly have the power to nurture myself!"

He had indeed poured his heart into her growth in his past life, yet he had been cautious enough to leave certain things behind.

That past prudence had now become the foundation for his future.

Now, Yang Chen's heart surged with a newfound fire as he whispered, "I was a peerless genius in alchemy, creating pill formulas that shook the earth, yet I was flawed. That flaw was my lack of martial strength. No matter how brilliant an alchemist I was, I remained an ordinary man, easy to slaughter."

"But everything changes now. Since I, Yang Chen, have been reborn into a body capable of Cultivation, I will not only be a supreme alchemist but I shall also ascend to the very peak of the martial Dao!"
