When Li XinWen opened his eyes, he noticed that he was in an entirely different world. Compared to his original world, the spiritual energy within this world was very thin. "I'm still alive...?" he asked himself as he lifted his hands to see if he truly was alive. He only lifted his arm slightly when he heard the sound of a sliding door being opened.
"Ah! Patient Li, you're awake! Please don't move!”
Li XenWen turned his head slightly towards the direction of the panicked voice. He saw a middle-aged woman dressed in a weird fashion. "You are still heavily injured! Your wounds are still fresh and are still at risk of opening, so please don't move around too much. Please hold still while I call the doctor."
Li XinWen took this time to do a quick look at his body. At a glance, he knew this was not his own body. 'So... this body is not mine, and... this world is definitely not my world. Based on the amount of spiritual energy here, it is safe to assume that I have transmigrated?' Li XinWen thought to himself. For someone who had been thrown to a brand new world, Li XinWen was very calm. After all, he had lived for over three centuries back in Long Xing and has already experienced things that can be considered defying heaven.
Since the woman has not yet returned, Li XinWen took this time to observe his surroundings. The room was small and smelled of antiseptic. There was a window to the right which let the light in and other than a painting of some sort hanging on the wall in front, the room was bare. He did a quick body scan and noticed that his body sustained a lot of injuries. He realized that this body was that of a mortal, thus he could not manipulate any spiritual energy through his meridians. And finally, he found that the state of his soul was so pitiful, it was a miracle for him to even be alive.
Li XinWen glanced at the door once more, but there is still no sign of the woman returning. ‘Since she’s not returning… let’s see whose body I am currently occupying…’
As that thought crossed his mind, he decided to use what little remained of his soul energy to check the memories of his body. Massive amounts of information flooded his brain and Li XinWen patiently sorted it out as he went through them.
The original shared the same name as Li XinWen which makes it easier for him and he wouldn't have to shed his real name. Next, the original is actually an actor who is on the rise to fame. The original had four family members left in this world - an elder sister, an adopted younger brother, his mother and his aunt.
Li XinWen never had any family. He was an orphan and lived as a street rat for the first decade of his life. Then, by sheer luck, a wandering cultivator discovered his aptitude for cultivation. He was taken into the Soaring Heaven Sect. Since then, he lived for the sect, rising from a no-name disciple to an infamous peak master.
Remembering his past made him recall his elder brother and junior sister’s betrayal and his mood turned sour. Not wanting to think more of it, Li XinWen decided to absorb the world's information - so he could live well, until the day he found a way to return to his Long Xing.
'But still... This guy is quite sad,' Li XinWen sighed inwardly as he read what happened to the original soul of the body. Apparently, the original suffered a car accident and sustained life-threatening injuries. Though he survived the operation, his life still gave out, allowing Li XinWen the chance to occupy it without any resistance. 'It's alright. I'll make sure to live for your sake too. I'll also take care of your family,' since Li XinWen received the original's memories, he knew how important the original's family was. And considering he never had family in his own world, he might as well try and cherish this family he will now have.
