Fantasy: The Great Emperor Comes Back

C1 – Rebirth

“Am I going to die?”

“But I don’t want to die!”

In the depths of the forest, Mo Changyou let out a sudden roar, his fists clenched tight. He was filled with an intense sense of resistance.

“Qi Wenya, you will suffer a terrible fate!”

Mo Changyou’s roar echoed, but then he abruptly realized something was amiss.

“I’m not dead?”

He recalled being stripped of the Law of the Imperial Way by Qi Wenya, his cultivation forcibly reduced to the Monarch Stage. Then, he was killed by the woman he had feelings for.

It dawned on him that this was not the Emperors’ Era. The additional memories in his mind informed him that he was now in the Falling Monarch Times. The era of his dominance had ended a hundred thousand years ago.

As Mo Changyou was trying to make sense of his current predicament, someone sneered at him, “Stop your yelling, you’re nothing but trash.”

Several disciples clad in white robes stood beside Mo Changyou. Leading them was a curly-haired girl in a long dress, her posture exuding confidence. She regarded Mo Changyou with scorn.

Qian Hongyun spoke to Mo Changyou with an icy tone, “You’re not worthy to marry me. Had it not been for your father Mo Feng’s formidable strength that once struck fear into the hearts of Black Rock City’s people, why would I have agreed to an engagement with you?”

The engagement between Qian Hongyun of the Qian family and Mo Changyou was set because Mo Changyou’s father had been the most formidable prodigy in Black Rock City. Mo Feng was incredibly powerful, but after his trip to the Imperial Capital, he returned with his cultivation gone and a leg broken. All he brought back was an infant.

That infant was Mo Changyou, who turned out to be a disappointment with only a Grade Nine Talent.

In Heavenly Martial Divine State, the ranks were Body Refining, Energy Condensation, Fusion Spirit, Inscription, and Sovereign.

Mo Changyou’s father, Mo Feng, had been the sole Inscription Expert in Black Rock City.

Mo Changyou watched the haughty young woman and let out a faint smile.

During the Emperors’ Era, he had been unbeatable. Women flocked to him, desiring his attention. Many of the top sects’ most beautiful women and Holy Maidens had sought his affections. Thus, he certainly didn’t consider this girl, merely at Energy Condensation Level 6, to be someone he would deign to marry.

“His father has become a cripple, yet he refuses to break off the engagement. Miss Wenya, we should just kill him,” said the other Qian family disciples, looking down on Mo Changyou with contempt.

The Mo family had invested heavily in Mo Changyou, but all they got in return was a man with merely Grade Nine Talent who had only managed to reach Body Refining Level 5.

One of the Qian family disciples scoffed, “Mo Feng has exceptional talent, but Mo Changyou is just too dim-witted. He doesn’t deserve to marry Miss Wenya.”

In Black Rock City, it was common knowledge that Mo Changyou was utterly incompetent.

“Kill him and make sure there are no traces left,” Qian Hongyun said with a sneer, casting a disdainful glance at the frail Mo Changyou before turning on her heel and walking away. In her eyes, he wasn’t even worth the effort of her lifting a finger.

​After Qian Hongyun’s departure, the remaining Qian family disciples glared at Mo Changyou with malice. To them, Mo Changyou, the most useless person in Black Rock City, was as good as dead.

​”Now, make yourselves scarce. Otherwise, you’ll have no one to blame but yourselves for my lack of mercy!” Mo Changyou spoke calmly, eyeing the disciples before him. In his past life, he had the power to slay warriors of the Great Monarch Level. And now, these Energy Condensation Stage upstarts thought they could challenge him?

“Have you lost your mind? Who gave you the gall to speak to me like that?” Qian Dao bellowed, infuriated. As Qian Hongyun’s underling and a prodigy at Energy Condensation Level 4, he couldn’t believe Mo Changyou’s audacity.

“You’re nothing but trash at Body Refining Level 5, and yet you dare to act so haughty in front of Mr. Qian Dao? Mr. Qian Dao, you should just end him,” chimed in another disciple.

Qian Dao’s expression twisted into something fierce, his rage palpable as he launched a punch with the might of Energy Condensation Level 3, his fist echoing with the sound of a tiger’s roar and a dragon’s growl.

“Mr. Qian Dao is using a Spirit Fusion Stage technique, the Dragon Tiger Fist!” exclaimed a disciple in awe.

He had achieved Great Completion with the technique, which was immensely powerful, capable of pulverizing mountains and stones.

Qian Dao’s grin was twisted with malice, as if he could already envision Mo Changyou’s head being crushed in a mere moment.

“A piece of trash dares to strut before me?” Mo Changyou’s punch was swift and decisive. A mysterious force whirled within him, his blood roared, and the once-stagnant meridians were suddenly cleared.

A resounding hum filled the air as a golden giant, akin to one forged from gold, materialized behind Mo Changyou. With each movement of the giant’s hands and feet, the very fabric of space seemed to warp.

This was the potent bloodline that lay dormant within Mo Changyou. Previously, his meridians were blocked, but with the memories of his past life guiding him, he swiftly unblocked them. The formidable cultivation technique he employed infused every meridian, unveiling the extraordinary physique that had been concealed until now.

At that moment, his cultivation level soared wildly.

Body Refining Level 5, Body Refining Level 6, Body Refining Level 7, Body Refining Level 8, Body Refining Level 9!

Crackling sounds emanated from Mo Changyou as the golden giant at his back shone ever more intensely.

Qian Dao’s face paled as he witnessed the transformation. What was that golden apparition?

A wave of dread washed over the other disciples. The young man they had dismissed as worthless had, in an instant, become an invincible hero..
