Chapter 1: Traveling Through Time and Awakening

The night wind was blowing and the sky was dark.

The sound of hurried footsteps rang out, and hundreds of people gathered on the top of the mountain.

"Girl of the Ling family, hand over what you have, and we'll consider sparing your life," a white-haired old man said in a deep voice, "You're the only one left in the Ling family now. Don't resist any longer and hand over the things you have. Otherwise, your fate will be even more miserable than that of your clan members."

Ling Changge stood on the top of the mountain with his back straight, looking down at those people from above. He smiled and said, "They are just a bunch of ants, yet they dare to think of shaking the giant tree. How ridiculous!"

Hearing her say this, the white-haired old man's eyes were icy. "So, you mean you're going to fight me to the end?" He waved his arm, and hundreds of cold guns were pointed at her. "I've been suppressed by your Ling family for so many years. I've been forbearing, just waiting for your Ling family to research that alien civilization, and then I'll kill you with my own hands. Your grandfather is really stupid! He didn't even realize that I was just playing along. I've been playing along with you for so long, and I should get some interest. If you hand it over today, I'll let you go. Otherwise, I'll send you to hell. Your Ling family's things will also be mine. Sooner or later, I will take everything from your Ling family for myself."

Ling Changge looked at him and stretched out her right hand. She was holding an object that was shining with blue light. When it appeared, the air around her became slightly hotter.

Everyone's eyes were focused on it.

"It is it! That's it!" Greed flashed in the white-haired old man's eyes. "Give it to me. If you give it to me, I will let you go."

Ling Changge smiled when he heard this: "Old Bai, are you sure you want it?"

The old man nodded: "Not bad."

"Well, after all, it's useless for me to keep this thing, so it's not a problem to give it to you." She said lightly: "Don't forget what you promised me."

At this moment, everyone's attention was attracted by the thing in her hand, and no one noticed the coldness that flashed in her eyes.

She threw the thing in her hand and it flew straight towards the crowd.

The Bai family has many people who are proficient in ancient martial arts. A man in a black robe flew up and caught the thing.

"Master, we succeeded."

The head of the Bai family took it and laughed crazily: "Hahahaha, the supreme ruler of the world is finally mine!" His eyes fell on Ling Changge and said maliciously: "Girl, you are still a little naive. Do you know the allusion of crossing the river and destroying the bridge?"

"Destroy the bridge after crossing it?" Ling Changge sneered: "I only know that all is fair in war." She curled the corners of her lips: "You want things from my Ling family, but you don't even look at yourself and see if you deserve them." After she finished speaking, she touched the ring on her finger and pressed it lightly. A crisp sound came from the thing in the hand of the head of the Bai family.

"Its existence will only lead to more slaughter. Since I found it, I will destroy it with my own hands."

As soon as she finished speaking, a brilliant light burst out from the hand of the Bai family leader and shot straight into the sky.

The scorching heat swept out, and everyone turned into ashes in an instant. At this moment, a ray of light burst out from the flames and rushed straight towards Ling Changge's eyebrows.

Her whole body seemed to be surrounded by warmth. Before the flames engulfed her, Ling Changge's figure disappeared from the spot, and all traces of her in this world completely disappeared in an instant.

After an unknown amount of time, Ling Changge's consciousness, which had been in chaos, gradually regained consciousness. He wanted to open his eyes, but his eyelids seemed to weigh a thousand pounds and he couldn't open them no matter what.

Ling Changge simply gave up struggling, thinking to himself: How could I still be alive? Where is this place?

Just then, a soft sigh came from my ears.

"Master, I'm afraid the eldest daughter is not going to make it. You should prepare for her funeral!"

"Asshole!" An angry voice came: "What do you mean it's impossible? I've already taken the resurrection pill, how is it possible..."

"The young lady did take the Resurrection Pill, but a primary level Resurrection Pill can only heal serious injuries, and the young lady's dantian is shattered. Without a secondary level elixir, she cannot recover."

As soon as he finished speaking, an old man's voice was heard: "Master, isn't it a bit unfair to give such a loser the Resurrection Pill? She can't condense her inner elixir and has no spiritual energy. Even if she takes the Resurrection Pill and barely saves her life, she will still be a loser. How precious is the Resurrection Pill? Why..."

"So what? I gave it to Chang Ge. I'm the head of the Ling family. The Resurrection Pill was mine. I can give it to whoever I want. The Great Elder is so lenient. How about you take the position of head of this family?" Ling Yanli clenched his fists and looked at the doctor: "No matter what method is used, Chang Ge must be saved."

The doctor sighed: "Master Ling, I really can't do anything!"

Hearing this, Ling Yanli's originally straight back bent slightly. He gritted his teeth and whispered, "Is there really no other way?"

Ling Yanli has been the head of this family for decades and has always been decisive and resolute. No matter what difficulties he encountered, he had never been as desperate as he is today.

The doctor shook his head and whispered, "Unless, unless we can invite a magic medicine master, there might still be a glimmer of hope."

Alchemist?

In this mountain and sea continent, alchemists are so rare, how could they possibly invite one?

Ling Yanli sat on a chair, his eyes fixed on the inner room. He thought for a while, and suddenly, he raised his hand, golden spiritual power emerged in his palm, and he made a hand seal with his hands. Seeing this, several elders were all shocked.

"Master!"

"Master, you can't do that!"

"Master, if anything happens to you, what should our Ling family do? Think twice!"

Ling Yanli seemed not to hear what they said. He quickly formed seals with his hands, and the inner elixir in his body showed signs of leaving his body.

The powerful fluctuations of spiritual energy made everyone take a few steps back.

At this moment, Ling Yanli only wanted to save his granddaughter, even at the cost of his life.

If the inner elixir leaves the body, all his life's cultivation will be destroyed. The elders knelt on the ground, but Ling Yanli seemed not to see it.

Just then, a cough was heard from the inner room.

Everyone heard this, as if they had seen a savior: "She's awake! She's awake! The young lady is awake!"

Ling Yanli naturally heard it as well. He stopped the seals in his hands, and the inner elixir returned to his body. He then ran quickly into the room.

"Chang Ge, Chang Ge!" Ling Yanli called her name cautiously.

The person on the bed slowly opened her eyes, and no one saw the flash of colorful light in her eyes.

Ling Changge's gaze fell on Ling Yanli.

An old man.

Ling Changge curled the corners of his lips, not a bad old man.

"Chang Ge, how do you feel?" Ling Yanli asked softly.

Ling Changge supported his body and tried to sit up, but he had no strength in his body.
