Late at night, lightning flashed and thunder roared, rain pouring down relentlessly.

In the outskirts of Anzhou City, the lights in a luxurious villa remained bright, despite the thunder, its booming music could still be heard.

"Have I been reincarnated?"

Inside a bedroom on the second floor of the villa, a young man suddenly sat straight up from his bed, looking around at the furnishings in bewilderment. The inside of his mind gradually clearing.

He was lean with a fair and handsome face, and his clothes were extravagant. Like a carefree noble young master, but his eyes were as clear as a deep pool, making it seem as if anyone who gazed into them would fall into his world.

Being a person who had weathered many storms, the young man's moment of confusion quickly passed as he began to sense his cultivation within.

Just as he had expected, the cultivation he had tirelessly worked on for hundreds of years, Tai Xuan True Scripture, had vanished completely. All that was left was a single Qi seed slumbering deep within his Dantian.

His two great techniques, Da Yu Cosmic Sword and YiHuo Tao Tian Jue, which had established his name in the immortal realm, had disappeared as well.

This body is as pure as a normal human being.

"It seems I truly have been reincarnated... Could this villa be that of that day?! This is unexpected... Who would have thought I'd get another shot at being twenty. Li Xuan, the wrong paths you've taken, the people you've let down, you finally have the opportunity to correct it all." The young man, Li Xuan, muttered under his breath.

Originally, Li Xuan was just an ordinary person on Earth, but due to unexpected opportunities, he received a legacy from immortals and practiced the Tai Xuan True Scripture, achieving the status of a Daluo Gold Immortal. His name was known throughout the immortal realm, causing a stir, people referred to him as the "Huo Xuan Jin Immortal".

He traveled across the universe, challenging all realms, reversing Yin and Yang, his might shocked all immortals, with one slash of his gigantic cosmic sword he could shatter planets, and with his YiHuo Tao Tian Jue, could swallow black holes and obliterate thousands of clans.

Sadly, he was betrayed by a female immortal he trusted the most, fell into a trap, and was besieged by dozens of his Jin Immortal enemies. He had no choice but to fall into a black hole. He had thought he would turn to ashes, but instead, he was reincarnated!

"Now that I've been reincarnated, I won't make the same mistakes again. When I return to the immortal realm, those who betrayed me, ambushed me, set me up, you will all pay the price!" As Li Xuan remembered his previous life, he couldn't help but sneer.

"In my previous life, I took countless detours in cultivation, and suffered many setbacks."

"Now, I possess a spiritual qi seed, the profound Tai Xuan Scripture, the vast Cosmos Sword Art and the unique Inferno Tide Secret Art imprinted deep in my heart. I can lay a solid foundation right from the start. As long as I steadily cultivate, I won't need long to regain my power from my past life."

"By that time, those who follow me will prosper, whereas those who oppose me will perish!" A threatening glint flashed across Li Xuan's eyes.

"Knock, knock, knock..."

Suddenly, someone gently knocked on the door.

Li Xuan's eyebrows slightly rose, he silently flopped onto his bed, closed his eyes, and pretended to be asleep.

Shortly after, the door was pushed open, a man and a woman peeked in. Seeing Li Xuan lying motionless on the bed, they both sighed in relief.

"I told you he's sleeping, no need to panic." The man chuckled, slyly caressing the woman's body.

She coquettishly said, "I was just afraid he might suddenly wake up!"

He assured her, "Don't worry, I put something in his drink. He's sleeping like a log now, won't wake up until tomorrow morning." He beamed in triumph.

"So, you had plotted this all along!" The woman playfully complained.

"Can't blame me for that, your charm is irresistible. A single night in springtime is worth a thousand gold. Pay no mind to him, let's go to the next room." With his arm around the woman, the man walked out of the room.

Once they left, Li Xuan slowly got up. He started piecing together his long-forgotten memories, a hint of anger arising in his heart.

"So this is how it happened..." Li Xuan mumbled to himself.

In his past life, he was the heir of a wealthy family, but at the age of twenty-one, his fate took a drastic turn, plunging him into an abyss. If not for inheriting a celestial lineage, he might have forever remained under the feet of others.

And all of this is connected to the despicable man and woman encountered earlier!

This villa belongs to that man, named Zhang Shihua, a well-known second-generation rich man in Anzhou city. His family business, Zhang's Pharmaceuticals, monopolizes more than 80 percent of the traditional Chinese medicine business in Anzhou city, indicating that they are hugely wealthy family.

Li Xuan's family also owns a medicinal material company that pales in comparison to Zhang's Pharmaceuticals. Still, they are reasonably affluent, making Li a smaller-scale 'second generation rich.'

In his past life, it was on this day that Li Xuan and his girlfriend Zhai Xin were invited to a party at Zhang's villa in the outskirts, upon Zhang Shihua's invitation.

That night, Li Xuan was exceedingly drunk, lapsing into unconsciousness.

The next day, upon waking, a squad of police officers were already standing by his bedside. They took him to the police station for blood and urine tests, which showed he had taken illicit drugs.

Despite Li Xuan's parents spending a significant amount of money hiring lawyers and pulling connections, he was still sentenced to six months' detention.

By the time Li Xuan was released from jail six months later, Zhai Xin was Zhang Shihua's girlfriend.

Knowing what had transpired, an enraged Li Xuan, at an age full of youthful vigor, decided to confront Zhang with a knife.

Little did he know, Zhang Shihua was prepared - the moment Li Xuan brought out his knife, Zhang's hired bodyguards severely injured him.

Afterward, Zhang's Pharmaceuticals pressured Li's business, forcing them into bankruptcy due to an inability to continue operations and accumulating a vast amount of debt.

Li Xuan's parents were embroiled in debt lawsuits and were detained for over a year. When they were proven innocent and released, their health had utterly declined.

Behind these misfortunes, the shadow of the Zhang family loomed. Li Xuan was enraged, desperate, but ultimately helpless. He was even pursued by the assassins sent by the Zhang family, forcing him to live a fugitive life.

During his days of fleeing like a homeless stray, his parents passed away one after the other. He couldn't even return home to bid them a final goodbye.

One day, Li Xuan was chased by the Zhang family's assassins to a desolate, hilly area. He slipped and fell into a cave where he obtained a celestial heritage, setting him on a drastically different path.

When he had completed his cultivation and turned around to seek revenge, he found that time in the fairy world stood still, while a hundred years had passed in the human world. Who were there to hold grudges against on earth?

Those hates, becoming a thorn in Li Xuan's heart in his past life, even turned into a heart demon several times when he broke through, almost leading him astray.

This life, the same thing would not happen again.

A drop of water in return for a burst of spring.

Revenge for the betrayal and entrapment, like a raging wave!

Li Xuan made up his mind, quietly got up and walked out of his bedroom.

Disgusting noises from next door caught his attention, but Li Xuan didn't mind. Let the amorous couple enjoy themselves for now. Their bad days would come.

Now, Li Xuan had something more important to do.

Li Xuan had no idea how he was framed in his past life. However, now he could clearly feel something wasn't right in his body.

Zhang Shihua had put sleeping pills and banned substances in his wine.

Bearing such things in his body would be a great hidden danger to his future cultivation.

Li Xuan was going to find some herbs, first clean out the toxins in his body, and then slowly deal with Zhang Shihua.

As he walked down the stairs, blaring music hit him in the face. In the massive living room on the first floor of the villa, a group of men and women were dancing wildly like mad.

These were all guests invited by Zhang Shihua, most of them are rich second generation, playing quite openly.

Li Xuan could clearly see several men and women hugging and kissing in the corner, and several pairs on the dance floor were groping each other.

It looked like in a moment, there would be an unrestricted conference here.

Li Xuan shook his head, about to leave, when a woman came face to face and bumped into his arms.
