...
Outside Qingyang City, in a dark grove of trees.
Two blood-covered youths limped toward Qingyang City.
They would look back every few steps, as if something terrifying was chasing them.
"Hurry and find City Lord Lu. Qingyang City is not far from here."
"Um!"
As the two were talking, a sudden gust of cold wind swept past them from behind.
The bone-chilling cold sent a shiver down their spines, and they continued running forward in a panic.
However, at that moment, a dark streak of light stepped forward, accompanied by a series of ghostly howls.
When the two regained their senses, they saw a mysterious figure in a blood-red robe blocking their way.
The mysterious man exuded an eerie aura, causing the two boys' pupils to shrink involuntarily.
"What? Are you that afraid of me?"
Surprisingly, the mysterious man's voice was not as sinister as his appearance suggested; instead, it had a touch of youthful innocence and clarity.
But the two boys were so frightened that they collapsed to the ground.
The next moment, a cold sword with an evil gleam appeared in the hand of the mysterious man in the blood-red robe, and he passed by him at lightning speed, much to their disbelief.
Pfft, pfft—
With two soft thuds, the two boys fell to the ground simultaneously, their eyes wide open and their faces filled with disbelief until their last breath.
"I'm sorry, I know this is very unfair to you, but there's nothing I can do, this world is just that cruel."
The mysterious figure in the blood-red robe slowly removed the hood covering his face, revealing a face so distorted that it was almost unbearable to look at.
If Song Zhirang's face was so ugly that people were picking at it, then the face of this mysterious man in the blood-red robe is so striking that even the orcs in Lord of the Rings would feel confident enough to walk onto a fashion runway.
That's not just ugly, it's utterly indescribable.
This distorted, centipede-scarred "S"-shaped face is perhaps only acceptable to abstract artists.
But this is limited to the realm of art.
More accurately, it was nausea.
He crouched down on the ground, his distorted, abstract face revealing no expression.
After a long while, he took out a small porcelain bottle. The moment he opened it, the essence and spirit left in the bodies of the two boys were completely absorbed, and their bodies quickly dissipated into powder.
Immediately afterwards, the man in the blood-red robe poured the porcelain bottle into his mouth.
Now, it's time to witness a miracle.
The already distorted and ferocious face became even more distorted as the soft light emanated from it.
But soon, his face began to gradually correct itself, the scars on his face disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the originally extremely asymmetrical sides were quickly restored.
When the soft light dissipated, it revealed a gentle and handsome young man's face, a stark contrast to his previous ghostly appearance.
If Shen Zhao saw this face here, he would definitely shout excitedly: "Everyone stand up! Now I would like to introduce this heavyweight guest. I am a transmigrator with cheat codes, but I have been killed by him nine times in a row. Tell me, isn't that amazing!"
That's right, this person is Raymond Lam.
Speaking of Raymond Lam, you can find all the life trajectories of the protagonist's youth in him.
Including but not limited to: his father was stabbed to death, his mother was forced to sail far away, and he wandered alone, hiding from the enemy every day.
In short, he has all the supreme experiences that a protagonist should have in his childhood. After all, how can one be considered a protagonist without an unhappy childhood?
Unlike Shen Zhao, whose childhood was uneventful and without any excitement, whether before or after his transmigration, Shen Zhao's life was utterly pathetic in comparison.
Once you get through the initial hardships, the days to come will be filled with: timely opportunities, slapping faces in satisfying stories, jealous lovers vying for his affections, and the frustration of currying favor with a reclusive tycoon.
A protagonist template that couldn't be more standard.
And that is indeed how his life was.
Lin Feng held a glass mirror and carefully examined his handsome face, which was enough to charm countless girls, and couldn't help but smile.
"If I hadn't obtained that secret technique, I probably would never have dared to dream of having such a handsome face in my entire life."
He was so moved that he burst into tears.
Because of this face, he suffered countless scornful looks and ridicule, and even his pure Yang body was almost stolen.
But now, that painful childhood memory is about to disappear.
What awaits him is the pride of reaching the pinnacle of martial arts.
Lin Feng vowed to sleep with the most beautiful woman, learn the strongest martial arts, create the strongest power, stand at the top and trample everything under his feet, and tear anyone who dares to stand in his way to pieces.
"You really don't regret it? Don't you think it's cruel?"
At this moment, a faint glow emanated from the soul-nourishing ring on Lin Feng's left index finger, and a woman's gentle voice came from within.
Lin Feng hurriedly said, "Master, I have no choice. You should know what kind of humiliation and injustice I have suffered over the years. But I swear that once my wish is fulfilled, I will do my best for the righteous path and help Master to reshape his physical body."
"..."
No sound came from within the Soul Nourishing Ring, only a faint sigh of helplessness.
"Although your appearance has changed, if you want to maintain it permanently, you must raise your cultivation to the Supreme Realm as soon as possible. Otherwise, you will have to absorb the essence and spirit of ninety-nine people every two years to maintain it."
Lin Feng frowned upon hearing this and asked, "Master, reaching the Supreme Realm takes a long time, doesn't it?"
"Before I perished, it took me more than thirty years to barely reach the Supreme Realm. It is not something that can be achieved easily."
"Are there any other options?"
"The Youth Preservation Pill can extend your appearance to five years, but it is very expensive, costing more than 100,000 spirit stones per pill, and it is extremely rare."
