Chapter 1: The Reborn Immortal Emperor Who Stages Accidents

Li Chen suddenly sat up, large beads of sweat rolling down from his forehead. His arms bulged with veins, his face ghastly pale as if he had seen the most terrifying thing in this world.

"Li Chen, you're awake?"

In a daze, the crisp voice of a girl wafted over. It seemed so ethereal, as if right by his ear, yet also as if it was from the ends of the earth.

"Who are you, am I not dead?" Li Chen, relying on instinct, grabbed a cold, small hand and asked somewhat bewilderedly.

"Li Chen, it's Chuxue, don't you remember?" The girl saw Li Chen as if he had amnesia and asked anxiously.

"Chuxue?" Li Chen murmured the name several times.

Suddenly, as if he remembered something, he unconsciously gripped the wrist with more strength, his voice filled with astonishment: "Chuxue, are you Ye Chuxue?"

"Ouch, Li Chen, you're hurting me, let go!" Ye Chuxue screamed.

Li Chen got overly excited and couldn't help but laugh loudly towards the sky: "Haha, I am still alive, I, the Donghua Immortal Emperor, have actually been reborn!"

"Li Chen, don't scare me, okay? I didn't mean to hit you with the car, it really wasn't on purpose!" Ye Chuxue saw Li Chen yelling like a madman, almost in tears with fright.

Ye Chuxue had a passion for race cars and after coaxing her best friend for half a month, she managed to borrow that newly purchased Porsche to play for half a day.

However, she had just started the engine and hadn't even moved the car when that idiot Li Chen suddenly lost his mind and charged towards it like a madman.

The whole process was smooth as flowing clouds, even more professional than an experienced scam artist faking an injury.

Initially, Ye Chuxue thought Li Chen was pretending to faint, trying to scare her.

But when she got out of the car to check, that idiot Li Chen stopped breathing, and even his heartbeat was gone. In a moment of urgency, she had no choice but to dial the emergency number 120.

Li Chen wasn't stunned by the collision; on the contrary, he was clearer-minded than anyone else.

Donghua Immortal Emperor Li Chen was exceptionally gifted. In just five hundred years, he reached the Immortal Emperor Realm, becoming the number one master of the Immortal Realm, and was just a step away from the legendary eternal life of a Saint.

However, he ultimately never took that step!

Just when he was about to refine the Primordial Treasure Outer Heaven Meteorite to cross the Nine Heavens Profound Tribulation, he was besieged and attacked by the Four Directions Heavenly Emperor, the Nine Immortal Venerables, and countless Immortal Kings.

Facing the siege of powerful enemies, Li Chen was fearless, wielding the Xuanyuan Divine Sword, ferociously slaying in every direction.

Sadly, at the critical moment of life and death, he was stabbed in the back by his lifetime love, the Yaochi Saintess Beiming Xue, and died full of resentment.

Originally, he thought he would perish under the Heavenly Thunder of the Nine Heavens Profound Tribulation. But to his utter surprise, he was reborn five hundred years earlier.

Hmph, the Four Directions Heavenly Emperor, the Nine Immortal Venerables, and you, Yaochi Saintess Beiming Xue, wait for the trembling day. Sooner or later, I, Li Chen, will return to the Immortal Realm and make you pay in blood!

...

"Li Chen, how are you, you're not really stupid, are you? Don't scare me!" Ye Chuxue saw Li Chen's dull gaze and strange expression, and she softly called out.

Ye Chuxue's words pulled Li Chen back from the depths of his memories to reality.

Ye Chuxue, Li Chen's fiancée.

However, at her most beautiful age of twenty-four, she tragically passed away.

Li Chen held Ye Chuxue in his arms, excitedly saying, "Chuxue, in this life, I am determined to protect you well, never to let you suffer any harm again!"

"Ah ah ah, Li Chen, are you sick?" Ye Chuxue saw Li Chen suddenly hugging her and screamed in shock.

Hearing Ye Chuxue's words, Li Chen was first stunned, then he soon had a moment of realization.

It's the year 2008, and Chuxue should only be eighteen years old, not yet fully accepting him.

Seventeen years ago, in the winter, his mother, carrying him at one year old, went to the hospital for an IV, and on the way encountered Mrs. Ye in a difficult labor, bleeding profusely.

If it had not been for Li Chen's mother's timely assistance, Ye Chuxue would probably not have come into this world.

The two families thus became connected, arranging a marital agreement for the one-year-old Li Chen and the newborn Ye Chuxue.

Five years ago, Li Chen's parents died together in a car accident.

The lonely and helpless Li Chen was then taken into Mrs. Ye's sister-in-law Aunt Tang's home.

However, the family's Little Princess Ye Chuxue didn't like this somewhat dull-looking youth, believing he took away the love her parents had for her.

Especially when she learned that there was a marriage arrangement with Li Chen, she was totally unwilling; she ostracized Li Chen in every way, trying to force him out of the home.

Unfortunately, after five years, Li Chen still firmly held his ground.

"Li Chen, are you deliberately conning?" Ye Chuxue bit tightly on her pearl-white teeth, angrily interrogating.

Li Chen shook his head, his face full of innocence.

Ye Chuxue blinked her beautiful big eyes twice and interrogatively asked, "If you're not conning, then how did you recover so quickly just now?"

Before Ye Chuxue finished speaking, Li Chen slapped his head and laid down again.

"Ouch, I feel dizzy!"

Ye Chuxue clenched her pearly teeth, squeezed her small fist tightly, and punched Li Chen hard on the chest.

"Li Chen, you bastard, you almost scared me to death just now. You and your fake fainting! If there's a next time, I will drive the car and hit you dead!"
