"I never thought that the heavens would treat me so kindly, allowing me to be reborn back on Earth!?"

Once Ying Xiao opened his eyes, he was quite stirred up.

Five years ago, he left Earth to enter a world of cultivating immortals. A thousand years later, he had achieved success and was preparing to overcome the celestial calamity, but failed and was mercilessly struck by lightning.

He thought he would be reduced to ashes, but surprisingly, he returned to Earth!

After Ying Xiao calmed down, he promptly checked his physical condition and found that all of his cultivation was lost.

However, he had anticipated this before attempting to transcend the calamity, so he was well prepared.

"Since the heavens have allowed me to be reborn, I will start all over again!"

Ying Xiao was brimming with confidence. He looked around, it was pitch dark and seemed to be piled up with a lot of incomplete cloth.

He touched one, judging from the shape, it should be a piece of clothing.

"Where is this..."

Just as he was puzzled, he heard a voice.

"Wait a minute, I'm going to change my clothes."

Accompanying the voice was the sound of a closing door and rustling clothes.

Ying Xiao slightly frowned, and thought to himself, "Could this place be a wardrobe?"

At this moment, he noticed a small crack where a beam of light was shining in from the outside. Out of curiosity, he leaned over to take a look.

"Wow!"

If he hadn't quickly covered his nose, two streams of blood would have shot out.

Outside the crack, a curvaceous beauty had stripped off all her outer clothes, leaving only her undergarments. Her perfect figure was all tightly outlined.

"Where did I put my clothes? Why can't I find them!"

As the beauty rummaged for her clothes outside, she suddenly turned and walked towards the wardrobe.

"Darn, she's going to find out!"

"Whoosh—"

The wardrobe door was abruptly yanked open. Their eyes met, and the air seemed to still for a second.

"Ahh!"

The beauty let out a terrified scream and slapped Ying Xiao right across the face.

Ten minutes later, they sat opposite each other at the table.

The beauty, now dressed, stared angrily at Ying Xiao.

"Who are you?! How long have you been hiding in there?!"

She looked like she was about to grind her teeth. Her well-proportioned figure had just been completely exposed to him!

"If I said that I ended up in your wardrobe due to a time-space shift, would you believe me?"

Ying Xiao said in embarrassment,

"It seems like only if I hand you over to the constables will you confess truthfully."

The lady was about to make a call on her mobile.

Ying Xiao panicked. The precinct would surely not believe him and his arrest would certainly lead to imprisonment.

Upon the thought, Ying Xiao tried to snatch the lady's phone.

Accidentally, he caught hold of the lady's clothes, and with a slip, her clothes were torn off.

"You... ah!"

The lady screamed and her phone fell to the ground.

Upon seeing the lady's body, a sudden nosebleed came rushing out of Ying Xiao's nose.

"You... you're still looking!"

The lady yelled out again.

At that moment, a shout came from outside.

"Sister Lin, what's going on?"

Hearing the outer sounds, Ying Xiao became flustered.

As the lady was about to open the door, he hurriedly said, "If you open the door, I'll tell them that you're meeting with me here in secret and ruin your reputation."

Ying Xiao observed that the woman in front of him held a high status, definitely concerned about her own reputation.

Sure enough, the beauty looked at her clothes, frowned, and gritted her teeth, "Fine, you rogue! Hide back in the wardrobe. Leave as soon as I go!"

Ying Xiao shrugged and returned to the wardrobe.

After a while, confirming that the person outside had left, Ying Xiao stepped out of the wardrobe and left the room.

On the way, Ying Xiao thought of what happened earlier and couldn't help but laugh.

"Thanks to my wit, otherwise…"

"Wait, that woman… Damn it, why is it her?!"

Ying Xiao only then remembered, the beauty earlier seemed to be Lin Shangying, the newly-appointed principal of Jingzhou High School where he had just started working!

Damn it, is the Heaven fooling with me?

I've offended such a big shot as soon as I've returned!

"In my previous life, this woman, due to my cousin, was often against me and planned to expel me. Now, I have not only seen her naked but also embarrassed her. Wouldn't she try to give me hell?"

Ying Xiao sighed slightly, "However, to put it, it's also my cousin's trust in her."

Ying Xiao's father was originally the inheritor of the prestigious Ying family in Qinzhou City, Jiangnan Province. The Ying family's business spans the great Summer, and some even extended to other countries.

However, because my father fell in love with an ordinary girl, which was considered a disgrace by the Ying family, he was expelled from Qinzhou.

But even so, his father always maintained a contented and peaceful life, desiring to live an ordinary life with his mother.

Life had always been peaceful and harmonious, however, the girl disappeared mysteriously after giving birth to her son, Ying Xiao, and her daughter, Ying Hui, leaving no traces behind.

Their father, Ying Zhengshan, feeling devastated, took his two children to Jingzhou City.

Ying Xiao's elder cousin, Ying Yiyi, was one of the few from the Ying family who still cared about them.

YiYi constantly proposed that their family should return to Qinzhou, apologize to the head of the Ying family, and reunify with the clan.

However, both their father, Ying Zhengshan and Ying Xiao were stubborn by nature.

Therefore, she had to ask her best friend, Lin Shangying, to try all means possible to render Ying Xiao jobless. This way, they would lose their source of income and will have no choice but to go back to the Ying family.

"Mom, why did you abandon us? In my last life, I didn't know why you left us, in this one, I will find you and uncover your identity!" vowed Ying Xiao.

Before his mother left, he was just three years old and only had a vague image of her.

As for his sister, she was just an infant and had absolutely no memory of their mother.

After their mother left, their father Ying Zhengshan became totally despondent, growing a decade older in a single night!

What puzzled Ying Xiao the most was that there were no items related to his mother in their house. That was very abnormal.

Ying Xiao felt a heavy heart.

"In my last life, I was too weak to find out about all of this. In this life, I am going to clear everything up." he said solemnly.

Most importantly, he was also looking for the girl who had taken a knife for him in his previous life.

At this point, he, although completely devoid of his magical skills, was not much different than an ordinary person.

"I have to regain my magical abilities in the shortest time possible."

There are eight major stages to the cultivation of magical skills; Qi Gathering, Insight Opening, Fusion, Grain Avoidance, Spiritual Solitude, Golden Core, Immortal Venerable, and Supreme.

In his previous life, Ying Xiao had cultivated up to the stage of Immortal Venerable, a formidable existence unbeatable under the Supreme stage.

"I need to find a place rich in spiritual energy to start my cultivation..."

Only by absorbing enough spiritual energy could the practising go smoothly.

With that said, Ying Xiao took out his cell phone to check the date.

"It seems today is the day before the start of school..."

Usually, the day before school starts, the middle school where he teaches would gather all the teachers for a dinner gathering, to announce the teaching plan for the new year.

"I didn't expect to see that woman so soon."

The thought of this made Ying Xiao feel a headache.

...

Jingzhou is located in the northern part of Jiangnan Province, and it is also a rather urban city in the northern region.

Ying Xiao arrived at the most bustling hotel in Jingzhou — the Purple Cloud Hotel, where the school had already booked the entire hall.

As he walked in, he saw the deputy principal introducing Lin Shangying to the teachers of various faculties.

Lin Shangying changed into a professional outfit, betraying an intellectual beauty with every movement she made.

"Ying Xiao, you're here?"

The vice-principal, sharp-eyed as he was, pulled Ying Xiao over and said, "This is our school's new principal, Lin Shangying. She's a highly talented individual who studied in the United States."

"You're up for a promotion soon, aren't you? Seize this opportunity to show the principal your excellence."

Having said this, the vice-principal then turned to Lin Shangying and introduced, "Principal, this is our newly hired Chinese teacher, Ying Xiao. Despite his young age, he has a solid foundation."
