Chapter

"I've finally traveled back in time!"

Zhang Xiaodong looks around at the familiar furnishings and at the photos of his wife and daughter hanging on the wall, shouting gleefully.

Ten thousand years ago, he had a happy and fulfilling family, but after his business investment failed, his whole temperament changed.

In order to return to his peak as soon as possible, he chose a path he believed to be a shortcut—gambling, with the hope of getting rich overnight.

But reality hit hard.

Not only did he lose all his savings, but he also lost even the medical expenses he had scraped together for his daughter!

As a result, his daughter Zhang Xinyue's disease got delayed and became increasingly severe.

Still, Zhang Xiaodong is obsessed with the dream of overnight riches, to him, the life and death of his daughter doesn't matter at all.

In fact, in his opinion, raising a daughter just to see her married off in the end was pointless.

Therefore, when he learned that Zhang Xinyue had an incurable disease, he gave up.

"Zhang Xiaodong, are you even human? She's our daughter, and you're just standing by while she dies!"

His wife, Li Yuying, crying, accuses Zhang Xiaodong, but this doesn't awaken him, rather it infuriates him and he beats her mercilessly.

"Is a money-losing good-for-nothing worth your fuss?!"

Zhang Xiaodong at that time said while beating Li Yuying with increasing force, "If you dare to call me a beast again, I'll sell you off to the brothel, ruining your life!"

Later, Zhang Xinyue's condition worsened, without money for treatment, she eventually died painfully on the hospital bed.

After her daughter's death, Li Yuying, devastated, jumped off the roof of her house one night.

At that time, she left just a sentence to Zhang Xiaodong, her husband, who wore a numb expression on his face.

"Yueyue believed until her last breath that her father would raise the money to save her. She thought that your past beatings and scoldings were only because she was disobedient. She even said that her greatest wish in her lifetime was for her father to give her a smile. Zhang Xiaodong, you, a piece of human trash, don't deserve it!"

These cruel realities plunged Zhang Xiaodong into unbearable suffering for the rest of his life.

He finally understood how much of a bastard he had been in the past!

In the end, he too, could no longer withstand the condemnation from his conscience, and, like his wife, chose to end his life by jumping off a building.

He had initially thought that this would put an end to everything.

However, unexpectedly, he stumbled into a time travel portal and stepped into another starry realm.

There it was a cultivator’s world, where one could attain eternal life as long as they were diligent in their cultivation.

But to Zhang Xiaodong, without his wife and daughter, even the promise of eternal life seemed meaningless.

Not until a purple-robed immortal told him.

That if he could cultivate to the realm of an Immortal Emperor, he could reverse time and prevent the tragedy from occurring.

Only then did Zhang Xiaodong decide to pursue the path of cultivation.

Owing to his deep-seated guilt and desire to right his wrongs, Zhang Xiaodong threw himself into cultivation like a man possessed.

As long as it could increase his cultivation level, he dared to visit even the most dangerous forbidden locations, and he was capable of enduring the greatest hardships.

Relying on sheer determination, he only took a hundred thousand years to reach the celestial emperor's realm, something others might not achieve even after several million years!

At this level, he could have dominated the entire world of cultivation.

However, he decisively gave it up, using the entirety of his cultivation as a price to forcefully open a space-time tunnel and return to Earth a hundred thousand years ago.

Back to that home that was once an object of his constant thoughts.

"Yuanyuan..."

Zhang Xiaodong stepped out of the bedroom quickly while shouting loud.

After a whole hundred thousand years, Zhang Xiaodong just wanted to hug his daughter, making up for his mistakes as a father.

But there was no response after several calls, his wife and daughter must not be at home.

The home was modest, but kept very tidy.

All thanks to his wife, Li Yuying.

Even during the few years when his business had failed, she remained unwaveringly by his side.

If it weren't for him moving the money set aside for Yuanyuan's treatment, his wife wouldn't hold such resentment towards him.

"Slap!"

Zhang Xiaodong gave himself a hard slap.

"Zhang Xiaodong, you're nothing more than a beast! Yuying and Yuanyuan were so good to you, and yet you hurt them!"

"From now on, I will use everything I have to make it up to them, to make up for the mistakes I've made before."

He wanted to get in touch with his wife, but due to their previous quarrels, she had blocked him, leaving him no choice but to wait at home.

He knew he could not waste time during this process.

Zhang Xiaodong returned to his bedroom, sat cross-legged on the floor, and began practicing "The Record of Immortals and Demons."

This ancient technique of "The Record of Immortals and Demons" was selected by him from millions of secret method books five thousand years ago, suitable for cultivation in places with insufficient spiritual energy like Earth.

If he could cultivate this method to the stage of perfection.

Then, his realm would be hundreds of times stronger than his previous life as an Immortal Emperor.

After a few minutes of cultivation, Zhang Xiaodong felt changes in his body.

His body, which he initially thought was weighed down by alcohol and resentment, was slowly recovering, filled with vitality and his spirit was much more lively.

"With this secret method, I can still get by on Earth!"
