Chapter 2 The Immortal Emperor is Reborn on Earth

When Ye Ling woke up again, he was already in an ambulance.

But this Ye Ling was the current one, not his predecessor.

Why phrase it that way?

Because the predecessor Ye Ling had been killed by a Ferrari, and even if he hadn't been killed by the car, he would have been struck dead by lightning.

The current Ye Ling was reborn.

"I almost did!"

Ye Ling smacked his lips, his face full of frustration.

Suddenly, Ye Ling froze.

"The Phoenix Supreme Tribulation, I didn't survive it, I should have been shattered to pieces, but now..."

Ye Ling abruptly sat up and when he saw the dark clothes he was wearing, his facial expression immediately turned into one of confusion.

"I'm still alive!"

Ye Ling's eyes shone brightly, in stark contrast to his face blackened by the lightning, as captivating as starlight.

"Where is this?"

Ye Ling glanced around and suddenly a wave of memories flooded his mind.

"Earth, year 2016, Ye Ling, Liu Fei, Lin Yuyou..."

Ye Ling muttered to himself; these memories belonged to the predecessor Ye Ling.

"Holy shit, I've been reborn!" Ye Ling couldn't believe it.

He couldn't believe it, and neither could the nurses and doctors in the ambulance.

Just a moment ago, the guy could barely breathe smoothly, inhaling more than exhaling, but now he was acting as if nothing was wrong.

Wasn't he died?

That was what everyone in the vehicle thought.

Chen Yan had just graduated from college and was interning at Donghai City's First People's Hospital.

Her theoretical knowledge was very sound, but she lacked practical experience; from this ashen figure before her, for the first time, she knew what a corpse looked like.

Logically speaking, Ye Ling should have been smashed to pieces in the accident, with internal bleeding, and then the Heavenly Thunder struck him as a final blow; he definitely shouldn't have been able to survive.

But now...

"Ah! Playing dead!!!"

Seeing Ye Ling suddenly sit up, Chen Yan's phoenix eyes widened as she screeched.

The others around were startled, and even Ye Ling was awakened by the sharp scream.

"Beauty, come on, take a good look, am I playing dead?"

Ye Ling beckoned to Chen Yan with a roll of his eyes.

This was rebirth!

Ye Ling was overjoyed in his heart, though after merging memories, he knew that Earth had sparse Spiritual Energy and wasn't conducive to cultivation; it would be difficult to return to his peak as the Nine Tribulation Immortal Emperor. But the key point was...

Being alive was pretty good already!

Under the Phoenix Supreme Tribulation, if one didn't survive, wasn't it an instant scattering of one's soul; and who would have a chance to be reborn?

Moreover, on Earth, which could almost be considered an 'abandoned' planet, relying on his previous life's experience, he could definitely live a carefree life!

"Haha, heaven has not treated me badly!"

"Knowing how hard I cultivated in my last life, this life on Earth is a blessing!"

Ye Ling's mouth split into a grin, chuckling; his face, already blackened by lightning, now revealed a row of shiny white teeth when he smiled.

"This guy hasn't been struck dumb by the lightning, has he?"

Han Qingxin was sitting next to Ye Ling; it was she who had hit Ye Ling, so naturally, she had to take responsibility.

"Hey, are you... are you okay?" Han Qingxin asked cautiously.

Hearing this, Ye Ling's original smile instantly disappeared.

"Do I look okay to you? My whole body feels like it's falling apart; at the very least, I'm seriously disabled!" Ye Ling said.

Han Qingxin was stunned for a moment then nervously said, "But... but you don't look injured at all."

"That's because I have a good attitude."

Ye Ling closed his eyes and laid himself down on the mobile hospital bed.

Just two words, play dead.

Actually, Ye Ling really wasn't in any trouble anymore.

When Han Qingxin bumped into him, Ye Ling suffered massive internal bleeding, and even one of his ribs pierced his heart so badly that it would have been a miracle if he hadn't died.

However, after the current Ye Ling was reborn, those injuries vanished as if by magic, as if that bolt of Heavenly Thunder had struck Ye Ling just to allow the current Ye Ling to be reborn.

"This... This is too incredible!"

Chen Yan patted her chest lightly with her delicate hand, disbelief filling her large eyes.

She stared attentively at Ye Ling, unable to comprehend how someone with such severe injuries could still be jumping around so lively.

Could it be his last burst of energy before death?

...

The First People's Hospital of Donghai City.

In the VIP ward, Ye Ling lay on the bed with three bowls of beef noodles in front of him.

"Glug."

After downing the soup from the third bowl of ramen, Ye Ling burped contently, clearly satisfied.

"So delicious..."

Han Qingxin was dumbfounded—just beef noodles, were they really that delicious? Why didn't it taste that amazing when she had it?

How could she know that Ye Ling from his previous life wasn't from Earth and had never tasted this kind of ramen before?

Not to brag, but in his previous life, Ye Ling had plenty of elixirs, but when it came down to taste... they were far from Earth's.

"A miracle, it's truly a miracle!"

Just then, a doctor dressed in a white lab coat walked in.

She was strikingly beautiful, with delicate features and a petite nose adorned with thin-framed glasses, a perfect oval face, willow-leaf eyebrows, and her efficient haircut tied up behind her. Even though she was clad in a white lab coat from head to toe, one could still glimpse her faint outline.

"A beauty!" Ye Ling's eyes shone.

All of a sudden, he felt that this 'Earth' planet, despite its lack of Spiritual Energy, was extremely abundant in beauties!

The beauty before him called 'Luo You', the pretty nurse named 'Chen Yan' in the ambulance, the beautiful driver named 'Han Qingxin' sitting beside him, plus the college junior named 'Lin Yuqing' who popped up in his memory...

Even Liu Fei who had just dumped the former Ye Ling looked pretty good—isn't that how she managed to be kept by a rich second-generation?

The former Ye Ling had seen plenty of beauties; as the Nine Tribulations Immortal Emperor, he had countless women. Moreover, his biggest hobby was women.

But those women were somehow essentially different from the women on Earth. As for where exactly the difference lay, Ye Ling couldn't quite put his finger on it.

Luo You leaned over Ye Ling, examining his wounds.

It was already summer, and aside from her white lab coat, Luo You wore only a light yellow chiffon blouse.

"I truly can't believe it. Before you got in the ambulance, you'd nearly lost all hope of survival, but now... Ah! What... what are you looking at?!"

Luo You had absolute professional integrity, or she wouldn't have become the head of internal medicine at the hospital at the age of 26.

As she explained with a face full of disbelief, she suddenly realized that the man, charred by lightning in front of her, was staring at her with wide eyes.

Following his gaze...

Luo You immediately knew what Ye Ling was looking at, her pretty face turning as red as an apple, anger brimming in her eyes.

"Pervert, bastard! Keep looking and I'll gouge your eyeballs out!" Luo You said through gritted teeth.

At the same time, Luo You was inwardly cursing herself for being a conservative woman. If it hadn't poured rain last night leaving her clothes not dried, she wouldn't have worn this low-cut chiffon blouse, inadvertently giving this guy a feast for the eyes.

"You're a doctor, and I'm a patient. Shouldn't a doctor treat a patient with a different attitude?"

Ye Ling coughed dryly, showing no embarrassment, and spoke earnestly.

"Hmph, do you even look like a patient? Just die of sickness already!" Luo You snorted coldly.

"Hey, that's no way to treat a patient, is it?" Ye Ling glared.

"Keep an eye on your boyfriend. If there's an issue, ring the bell."

Luo You clearly didn't want to talk to Ye Ling anymore, so after saying that to Han Qingxin, she turned and left the ward.

Han Qingxin gaped, and after a long while, she muttered a sentence.

"He... he's not my boyfriend..."
