Chapter 2: Everything Starts from the Wedding Night (2 / 2)

…

After learning this information, the man couldn’t help but clutch his forehead. Suddenly becoming someone else was already mind-boggling, but now this guy was just a pile of trash.

“Since I’m here, I might as well accept it. Same universe, maybe there’s a chance to return to Earth in the future.”

The man comforted himself. Rather than complaining, it was better to think about how to survive, so he’d have a chance to go back to his world.

His gaze swept around, and his eyes landed on the bottle in the dead man’s hand.

“Corpse-dissolving powder?” he mumbled. Actually, he’d been awake for a while, but he thought he had been captured by the Charker family, so he decided to wait for the right moment.

He picked up the vial and dripped some of the powder on the corpse. Soon, the body began to dissolve, as if it was being broken down, and vanished without a trace.

“This technology…” The man was shocked. A body just disappeared like that?

He tested it with the other two bodies. Before long, they also vanished.

The man stood frozen, realizing that this world was far more advanced than he had imagined.

Suddenly, the door opened.

Hearing the noise, the man quickly hid the bottle, turned around, and looked toward the door.

A bride walked in, wearing a phoenix crown and a red dress. Her skin was as white as jade, and her eyebrows were like ink, a perfect beauty.

Especially her eyes, they seemed to speak for themselves. The man couldn’t help but stare at her for a few extra seconds.

He had to admit, this bride was extraordinary. He’d seen countless women, but none could compare to her.

Seeing the man staring at her, the bride’s expression darkened. “Want to fight again?”

The man took a step back, his heart skipping a beat. It wasn’t something he intended to do, but his body instinctively pulled back.

It seemed like Luo Yi had been beaten by this woman a lot in the past.

The man raised his head and looked at her—just a little girl.

But as he stared into her beautiful eyes, another wave of information exploded in his mind.

Xia Zhi Lan, the daughter of the Xia family, the number one beauty of Daxia Kingdom, and Luo Yi’s bride. They were getting married today.

The man closed his eyes, slowly digesting the information…

After Luo Zhentian’s fall, Luo Tianfu had been able to maintain its glory and face because of his reputation and connections.

Luo Zhentian fought and died to protect Daxia Kingdom, so even the emperor appreciated Luo Tianfu’s contributions.

Now, the three major general families in Daxia City—the Xia family, Zhou family, and Lin family—were all once comrades of Luo Zhentian, fighting alongside him in wars.

It could be said that without Luo Zhentian, there would be no D-grade generals in these three families today.

So after Luo Zhentian’s death, they had given Luo Tianfu great protection.

Originally, Luo Tianfu might have still kept its former glory, but Luo Yi had completely squandered it. Relying on all this protection, he didn’t work hard to study or cultivate to restore Luo Tianfu’s reputation. Instead, he spent time at brothels, even bullying men and forcing women, engaging in shady business.

If not for the gratitude owed to Luo Zhentian’s legacy, the three families would have let him die a hundred times over for his actions.

Over time, the three families became disappointed in Luo Yi, and even the emperor withdrew the honorary plaque of Luo Tianfu’s heroes. Since then, Luo Tianfu had fallen to rock bottom, and anyone could kick them while they were down.

Three months ago, when Luo Tianfu was on the verge of collapse, Xia Zhi Lan announced she would marry Luo Yi.

It was said that when Luo Yi was a child, he and Xia Zhi Lan had been betrothed. But after Luo Zhentian’s death, Luo Yi proved useless, so the verbal promise held no power.

However, Xia Zhi Lan was extremely loyal to her promises, and despite her family’s objections, she chose to marry Luo Yi to preserve Luo Tianfu.

So today was their wedding night.

Luo Yi opened his eyes and looked at Xia Zhi Lan. His gaze softened a little. The number one beauty of Daxia Kingdom, marrying this good-for-nothing, it must have taken a lot of courage.

Xia Zhi Lan sat down and waved at Luo Yi.

The man walked over.

Xia Zhi Lan whispered, “Luo Yi, the clan agreed to let me marry you. Though there were unavoidable reasons, they only gave you one year. If you can’t graduate from the Holy Martial Academy in one year…”

She shook her head as she spoke. The minimum requirement for graduation from the Holy Martial Academy was to cultivate one’s Xūqi to the third grade.

But Luo Yi had the Xūqi, but no Xūqi weapon or Xūbeast. How could he possibly reach the third grade?

In the early stages of cultivation, one opens the Xūqi within their body, and depending on their constitution, the Xūqi will condense into either an Xūqi weapon or Xūbeast. This is the foundation of cultivation.

But Luo Yi had no Xūqi weapon or Xūbeast.

Looking at Luo Yi, who was unmoved, Xia Zhi Lan sighed and said, “If you’re still like this in a year, I won’t even be able to protect Luo Tianfu.”

“This year is already the limit of my efforts. It’s the least I can do for Grandfather Luo.”

“In this year, however you want to live… it’s up to you.” Knowing Luo Yi’s incompetence, Xia Zhi Lan sighed again and lay down on the bed.

The man slowly exhaled. The situation seemed pretty bad.

“However, I’m quite intrigued by this strange new world. From now on, I’ll be Luo Yi.”

The man smiled faintly and walked toward the bed.

One moment in spring, never to be wasted.

Since I’ve lived on the other side of the stars, let this new life begin from the wedding night!
