Chapter 1: Yunzhou Bai Family
Lanyang Kingdom.
Yunzhou, city.
There were bursts of reading sounds coming from the Bai family's private school, but under the scorching August sun, the sounds were a little weak and not as loud as the cicadas in the trees outside the window.
Bai Donglin, who was already eleven years old, half closed his eyes, shook his head and responded, his mind had already flown away.
"I must have been reincarnated."
"It's not a soul traveling through time, nor a body traveling through time, it's a direct reincarnation into the Bai family of Yunzhou!"
"It must be that the baby's body was too fragile to bear my soul. It was only a few days ago that it gradually adapted, solved the mystery in the womb, and awakened the memory of the past life."
As a member of the army of social animals, Bai Donglin was deeply influenced by the blessings in his previous life. As an orphan, he has no one to rely on, so he has to work harder to live with dignity.
The high-intensity work eliminated most entertainment activities, and reading novels became his only pastime.
So he is very familiar with time travel.
"Something's wrong. Could it be that all the novels I've read for the past decade are lies? Where's the promised golden finger?"
Bai Donglin changed his hand to support his chin and sighed. Only those who have died once know how wonderful it is to live.
In the previous life, when I got off work late at night, I died in a burst of strong white light. My soul was drawn into a dark space. After a long period of travel, I saw many incredible scenes and finally survived to be reincarnated.
He never wanted to experience that kind of loneliness, helplessness and despair again.
So he was extremely eager to have all kinds of magical golden fingers, whether it was the grandfather's ring or the funny system. As long as it could make him stronger, so strong that he would never die again.
Although he was born into a wealthy family in this life and lived a comfortable life as a playboy, he was really afraid of death now, even of old age.
This world is not an ordinary ancient world, it is a world where extraordinary powers exist. From what he has come into contact with so far, this is at least a middle-level demon world. How vast the world outside is is not something he can understand now.
In such a world, dying of old age might even be a luxury, not to mention that the Bai family is a hereditary family of generals defending the country, and going into battle and killing the enemy is something that almost every member of the Bai family must experience.
Kill the enemy in battle and die on the horse's hide.
A general's success is the result of the sacrifice of thousands of men. How many people can truly survive to the end on the battlefield? Especially in this world with extraordinary powers, taking the heads of enemy generals is just a common occurrence.
"Forget it, there's no point in thinking too much. Even without the golden finger, I still have the knowledge from my previous life. Isn't it just a mortal start? I understand the process!"
An entire afternoon passed quietly while Bai Donglin was daydreaming.
"Okay, that's all for today. School is over."
The teacher on the podium shook his head and walked out of the school. He was already accustomed to the behavior of these Bai family children.
In his words, they are a group of warriors, guys whose brains are all muscles.
However, he also understood that the General's Mansion has always valued military power over literature. If they were not afraid of producing an illiterate general in the future and ruining the reputation of the Bai family, they would not have spent a lot of money to invite gentlemen like them to give lectures.
He did not have high expectations for these students, but at least they should be able to read and understand the art of war. If they could not deploy troops, what kind of general would they be? They could be just as good as cooks.
However, silver is really fragrant.
"Oh! It's time to go home from school!"
"Old Eight, Eleven, shall we go to the martial arts arena and watch the instructor perform martial arts?"
"Let's go, let's go together."
"Xiao Shisan, aren't you going with us?"
"I'm not going. I have to go back to the yard to feed the birds."
Bai Donglin rubbed his eyes, as if he had just woken up, and waved at the group of little kids in front of him, sending them away.
What's the point of just watching? I'm still young and can't practice martial arts. I can only feel jealous when I watch.
Instead of spending this much time, I might as well go back and take good care of my second brother’s bird. I hope that this time when my second brother comes back from the sect, he can give me some surprises.
Thinking of his second brother, Bai Donglin instantly perked up. He grew up listening to the legend of his second brother. His second brother, who was extremely talented, joined a cultivator sect, which was ranked among the top ten in Nanyang Kingdom.
Nanyang State has a vast territory and a population of over one billion, which is not much inferior to the great powers in previous generations. I believe that the top ten sects must be very powerful.
"The Bai family has been able to stand for a thousand years, which must be something extraordinary. The things the instructors showed at the martial arts arena might not be the Bai family's most powerful skills."
"As a descendant of my main lineage, I will come into contact with these things sooner or later."
The Bai family has been developing for a thousand years, so naturally there are many people. Not only do the main branch people live in this general's mansion, but many branch disciples also live here.
The descendants of the Bai family who inherited the title of general are the main branch, and the rest are branches.
Although there is a distinction between the main and branches, there is no distinction between superiors and subordinates. After all, the blood in the body cannot be faked, and we are all family members.
Bai Donglin's father is the current great general, Bai Li, a man who suppressed the southern countries.
Bai Donglin's mother in this life was of humble origin. She was the eldest lady, or his aunt's maid who came as a dowry.

Although she was a maid, she was treated as a sister by the eldest lady who grew up with her.
Unfortunately, due to her weak constitution and having never learned martial arts, she died of complications during childbirth after giving birth to Bai Donglin.
The general's mansion did not contain the melodramatic plots seen in the novels of his previous life. There were no evil servants doing evil things. Instead, everyone was respectful to him.
None of his brothers and sisters bullied him. On the contrary, because he was the youngest and had lost his mother at a young age, they all cared for him.
The eldest lady treated him like her own son.
"Am I not the main character template? But a supporting role?"
Not only did he not have a golden finger, but he also did not even have a cruel living environment, which made Bai Donglin doubt for a time that he was just a dead supporting role. Later, he met the destined protagonist, who would give him experience and benefits, and he would get a box lunch and that was it.
The more I think about it, the more bleak my future seems. I must start practicing as soon as possible. Without a golden finger, I have to rely on my own efforts.
Unfortunately, the Bai family stipulates that one can only practice martial arts when he is sixteen years old. Practicing martial arts too early will at best affect his development, and at worst he will become disabled.
"I have no choice but to ask my second brother for help. The top ten sects will not limit the age of martial arts training! My second brother was taken away by an old Taoist priest when he was six years old."
"So, for now, all I can do is to take good care of my second brother's bird. Considering my hard work in raising the bird, it should be reasonable to give me eight or ten manuals on magical skills, right?"
The road to transcendence is so difficult. Without a guide, it is as difficult as ascending to heaven to reach that world.
No matter what, he will not give up the pursuit of extraordinary power. Only those who control power can control their own destiny.
He doesn't want to live a mediocre life anymore, he wants to take control of his own destiny.
Having died inexplicably in the previous life, I must live clearly in this life.
Bai Donglin left the private school and climbed directly onto the carriage parked at the door.
The Bai family's mansion covers a very large area, and horse-drawn carriages are needed to travel between the various courtyards.
"Go to my aunt."
"Okay, young master, sit tight."
The author is a novice, and the first twenty chapters are mediocre. You can skip them, or just bear with them. People say the rest is even more exciting! (From the author after the 500th chapter)
