Chapter 70 Women's Clothing
Memories of the plum garden resurfaced. He took a deep breath and opened his eyes. The depression on his face had faded, revealing a determination to win.
What caught my eye was the neon-lit cityscape zooming past the car window. Rain trickled down the window, reflecting a dazzling array of colors.
She was sitting in the back seat of a smooth-moving luxury car. Her body felt young, with a pampered, slender air.
My fingertips stroked the soft leather seat beside me, and the scent of expensive perfume lingered around my nose.
"Ms. Lin, we're almost there." The driver's respectful voice came from the front seat.
Chu Yanxing, using the alias Lin Xingyan, tilted his head slightly and looked at the blurry reflection on the car window.
An extremely delicate face with picturesque eyebrows and eyes, and at the same time with the brightness and cuteness of a girl.
The ends of her long hair were slightly curled and draped over her shoulders, and she was wearing a pleated dress.
Don't get me wrong, wearing women's clothing is not his bad taste, but is related to his original mission.
The title of the Qidian novel I'm traveling to this time is "Qingling Emperor", and the synopsis is as follows:
Spiritual energy revives, the end of the world comes, order collapses, and the strong prevails.
In his previous life, Yu Che experienced hardships and rose to become a powerful leader, establishing "Chenxi" to protect mortals. However, he discovered the "Spirit-Awakening Tree," a divine object that could allow mortals to develop spiritual roots.
As a result, the fundamental interests of the top cultivation families were affected. Yu Che was brutally surrounded and attacked, his base was destroyed, and all his relatives and friends were killed.
Before his death, he desperately entrusted the last Spirit-Awakening Fruit and the core containing hope to others, and died with overwhelming hatred in his heart.
Now, fate has given Yu Che a chance to start over. He is reborn as seventeen years old at the beginning of the revival of spiritual energy.
With the foresight of the future, he vowed to seek revenge, change his destiny and protect his loved ones.
Let the light of spiritual awakening illuminate the world, break the monopoly of cultivators, and create a new era where mortals can also practice and all beings are equal.
As for the identity of AI at this time, Chu Yanxing is indeed from a top family. As the young master of the Chu family, his original body is actually a reborn person.
He clearly remembered Yu Che's rise in his previous life, and how that damned Spirit-awakening Divine Tree became the fuse that overthrew the rule of the aristocratic family.
After rebirth, the original body had been sending people to closely monitor Yu Che, but found that he was not eye-catching during his school days. Instead, he was mediocre and even a little cowardly.
The original body of the favored child of heaven could not help but look down on him a little, and thus, the attention he received gradually decreased.
It was not until Yu Che grew stronger that the original body realized the situation and began to target him, but it was no longer able to stop his edge.
Eventually, he became a small boss and was defeated by the vengeful Yu Che, and his family was destroyed.
The story now develops to the third day after Yu Che was reborn.
"Yu Che..." Chu Yanxing silently recited the name and couldn't help but sigh.
Although it has communicated with that consciousness, the only way to obtain the origin of the world is to destroy the personality of the Son of Heaven.
Although I feel sorry, but he is willing to forgive me after being abused twice, then it’s okay to do it again, right...?
The Chu family's young master's identity was too conspicuous, and his every move affected various factions. He needed a perfect disguise, an identity that would allow him to approach Yu Che without arousing suspicion.
Therefore, Lin Xingyan was born. She came from a wealthy family that had no connection with the Chu family. She was ignorant of the ways of the world and was most suitable for paralyzing the enemy and also for... setting traps.
"Miss, we're here." The driver's voice interrupted Lin Xingyan's thoughts.
Lin Xingyan's voice was ethereal and clear, as if coming from the depths of a valley, mixed with a girl's pride: "Hmm."
He is now taking the Disguise Pill, which not only changes his appearance but also his voice.
The rain was falling steadily, and in the quiet grove behind the No. 1 Middle School in K City, the only sound was the rustling of raindrops hitting the leaves.
Under the banana leaves, Yu Che sat cross-legged on a relatively dry rock, his eyes slightly closed, breathing long and distantly.
The air was filled with the fresh scent of soil and grass, mixed with traces of spiritual particles that were difficult for ordinary people to detect.
A spiritual resurgence has begun, although it has not yet broken out on a large scale or been noticed by the public.
But in some special places, such as the back mountain of the century-old No. 1 Middle School, the concentration of spiritual energy has quietly increased compared to other places due to geological and vegetation reasons.
This is a rare place for cultivation for Yu Che, who has been reborn and is in urgent need of improving his strength.
After finishing his second-year high school classes for the day, he quietly came here and practiced breathing exercises every minute.
The foundation and memories of his previous life allowed him to absorb spiritual energy far more efficiently than an average person. Within his sea of consciousness, a faint yet pure stream of energy slowly condensed.
As the night deepened and the sound of rain began to subside, Yu Che slowly opened his eyes, feeling the tiny amount of strength growing within him, a flicker of satisfaction in his eyes.
Although it is still far from the peak of the previous life, it is at least a good start.
He stood up and stretched his stiff muscles. It was time to go back. After all, he was still a student who needed his parents' supervision.
Yu Che held up an ordinary folding umbrella and walked quickly down the mountain along the slippery mountain path.
When he walked near the back door of the school, an uncomfortable sound penetrated the rain and reached his ears.
"...My little beauty, it's so dangerous to be alone in this dark place."
"That's right, let the brothers take you home?"
"Tsk tsk, such a pretty face, such a figure, and dressed so beautifully, are you waiting for your boyfriend? Why not have some fun with us brothers?"
Obscene teasing continued, accompanied by an angry protest. The image of a cute girl appeared in the tone:
"Get out! Don't touch me!"
"I called the police!"
Yu Che's steps suddenly stopped, his brows furrowed.
Someone was actually molesting a girl! He rushed forward without hesitation and shouted, "Stop it!"
The sound was like thunder, echoing in the narrow alley.
Before everyone could react, Yu Che rushed out from the shadows at the alley entrance, bringing with him a gust of wind.
Without any fancy moves, he just punched the thug closest to the girl in the face.
"Bang--"
There was a dull sound of bones cracking accompanied by a scream. The gangster was like being hit by a truck. He flew backwards, hit the wall heavily, and fainted.
The other two thugs were stunned by this sudden turn of events.
They looked at the miserable state of their companions, and then looked at the young man in front of them with cold eyes and a dangerous aura. A chill instantly ran up from the soles of their feet.
"Damn it, you're looking for death!" A gangster rolled his eyes, roared, pulled out the dagger from his waist with his right hand and stabbed at Yu Che.
Yu Che's eyes sharpened, and he dodged easily by leaning sideways, while at the same time, he chopped the opponent's wrist with a precise knife.
"ah--"
The dagger fell to the ground with a clang, and the gangster howled in pain while holding his twisted wrist.
The last thug was so frightened that he turned around and tried to run, but Yu Che kicked up his toes and half a brick on the ground flew out as if it had eyes, hitting him hard on the back.
The gangster fell to the ground and struggled to get up.
In a flash, all three thugs fell to the ground.
Yu Che then turned around and looked at the girl leaning against the wall. Raindrops streamed down his cheeks, and his eyes still held a hint of sharpness.
"Are you okay?"
The boy of the same age in front of me has clear features, a high nose bridge, and a still thin figure. However, his calmness beyond his age still gives people a full sense of security.
The girl seemed frightened, her body still trembling slightly. She raised her wet eyelashes like a frightened deer.
The rain wet her long hair and skirt, which clung to her body, outlining her slender and delicate curves. The torn hole in her skirt was particularly glaring in the dim light, and an umbrella broke and fell to the ground.
Yu Che was stunned. He didn't expect the other person to be even more stunning than he expected. His eyes moved down for a moment, and after noticing the girl's embarrassment, he suddenly shifted his gaze to the wall.
"Thank you, thank you." The girl's voice was filled with tears, sounding pitiful. She seemed to want to stand up straight, but her legs were weak and she stumbled.
Yu Che subconsciously reached out and held her arm. It felt cold and smooth.
"Can you walk?"
Yu Che was already in his early thirties before crossing over, and he felt a little embarrassed to deal with a young girl who was much younger than him, but he couldn't just abandon her after he had already saved her.
The girl nodded timidly, then shook her head and said softly, "I'm a little scared. Can you... take me home?"
She raised her tear-stained face and looked at Yu Che with a pleading look in her eyes.
Yu Che was silent for a moment. Send her home?
The girl was well-dressed and clearly came from a wealthy family. Sending her back might lead to unnecessary trouble. What he needed most at the moment was to keep a low profile.
"My name is Lin Xingyan..." The girl seemed to see his hesitation and added softly, cautiously testing his words, "My home is nearby... It won't keep you long..."
The girl's tone reminded Yu Che of his past life, when ordinary people without any cultivation had to beg for mercy in front of cultivators, and his heart couldn't help but soften.
She's still a child. Looking at the pitiful girl in front of him, Yu Che relented: "Okay."
He let go of her hand. There was still a light drizzle in the sky. He handed the open umbrella to Lin Xingyan and said, "Don't catch a cold."
Seeing this, Lin Xingyan was very surprised, "Benefactor, let's hold on together."
As the girl leaned closer, the sweet fragrance of her hair filled his nostrils. It wasn't overly sweet, but rather a refreshing summer breeze. Yu Che calmly turned aside and said indifferently, "No need."
Hearing this, Lin Xingyan seemed to be shocked. She lowered her head slightly, took a step forward, and walked half a step in front of Yu Che. Her slender figure looked particularly lonely in the rainy night.
Yu Che smiled bitterly to himself and felt a slight headache. Don't blame him for being unkind. The little girl didn't know. He couldn't pretend to be ignorant, otherwise he would be no different from those hooligans who took advantage of her misfortune just now.
After walking for a while, Lin Xingyan perked up, slowed down her pace, and asked sideways, "Benefactor, are you a student at the No. 1 Middle School in the city?"
Yu Che nodded coldly.
"How high are you?"
"Second year of high school."
"Oh, which class are you in?"
"……eight."
"What's your name, benefactor?"
“…”
Lin Xingyan turned her head and looked several times, and found that Yu Che was looking to the other side with his hands in his pockets, with no intention of replying, so she also fell silent. Only the sound of their intertwined footsteps could be heard in the night.
Fortunately, Lin Xingyan’s home is indeed not far from the school. It is a newly built high-end school district house.
In front of the building, she solemnly handed the umbrella back to Yu Che, but did not argue any further. Under the warm light of the corridor, she smiled with two small dimples, waved her hand, and turned to go in.
Seeing Lin Xingyan turned her back, Yu Che couldn't help but smile. She was in the prime of her life.
