People in Doupo: The beginning of the game intercepts the rich woman Xun'er

This place is an ancient, dark, and desolate wasteland, devoid of any light. A deep, swirling darkness pervades the area, filled with an endless aura of malevolence. This evil and chilling power is entirely foreign to this realm of the Tianxuan Continent.

In the very center of the dark heartland, several ancient blood-red lamps floated. The filaments of the lamps were all forged with eerie bone patterns, and the ghostly red flames flickered and burned slowly, each strand exuding an extremely dense demonic aura that permeated the surroundings.

Suddenly, one of the blood-red ancient lamps trembled slightly. The originally leaping and raging evil flames slowly dimmed and weakened, and finally the flames were completely extinguished and disappeared into the boundless darkness.

hum-

As the blood lamp went out completely, subtle ripples suddenly spread from the depths of the dark abyss. A hazy black shadow emerged faintly from the pitch-black void, appearing and disappearing in the darkness, exuding a chilling and unpredictable pressure.

"Huh, Ninth Brother... has been completely wiped out."

In the darkness, a hoarse, dry voice slowly echoed, carrying a sense of calm and solemnity.

"Dead? Ha, what an unlucky fellow." Another sinister and eerie voice followed. "Back then, he was ordered to intercept and kill the previous controller of the Devouring Ancestral Symbol, and then he disappeared without a trace. Originally, seeing that his natal blood lamp was still burning, we assumed that he was sealed and trapped. How could he suddenly be completely annihilated and killed?"

"It seems he encountered some top expert. With the Demon Emperor Armor protecting him, it would be impossible for an ordinary Reincarnation Realm cultivator to completely kill him."

"Over the years, we have been secretly trying to figure out his location, but we have never been able to sense the slightest fluctuation of his aura. It seems that the holder of the Devouring Ancestral Symbol back then was indeed a person of great strength and ability."

"It may not be the work of the ancestral symbol controller; it might be the work of those ancient beings. Earlier in the demon realm, I vaguely sensed the aura of the Lord of Space. Although it was only a brief exchange of blows and probing before we each withdrew, I could tell that his cultivation had fully recovered to its peak."

“You must be more cautious in your actions in the future. I have noticed recently that the Thunder Lord’s actions have become more frequent, and he has begun to actively investigate and search for our whereabouts.”

"Lord Lei? Why should we be afraid of this person? If he really dares to come to us, that's fine. We should kill him on the spot to prevent future troubles."

“You are underestimating your enemy. If the Thunder Lord falls, the other ancient lords will be forced to reveal themselves prematurely. However, our preparations are not yet complete. If we hastily start a war now, the outcome will likely be the same as before, and all our efforts will be in vain.”

"So, in your opinion, how should we deal with this situation?"

"It's alright, the time is almost here. We just need to prepare diligently for a while longer, and then we can officially launch the ultimate plan. In this great war between heaven and earth, those ignorant humans will have no hope of turning the tide."

As soon as the words were spoken, the endless evil energy surging in the darkness slowly faded and subsided, and the blurry figures hidden in the shadows also disappeared without a trace.

The abyss returned to its deathly silence, but beneath this stillness, a bloody storm, powerful enough to engulf the entire world, was brewing and quietly surging, waiting only for the day it would erupt and overturn the heavens and earth...

……

Within the Great Wilderness County, in the city of Great Eagle.

In an elegant and tranquil boudoir, the atmosphere subtly conveyed a sense of anxiety.

"Father, why has Yinyin been so restless and absent-minded these days?"

A stunningly beautiful woman, around twenty years old, gently held the hand of a little girl beside her as they walked slowly, her brows furrowed with undisguised worry.

Upon hearing this, the burly middle-aged man standing nearby scratched his head, his face full of confusion and helplessness.

"This...you ask me, how would I know? Yin Yin has always been healthy and has never shown any signs of illness."

He was also puzzled. His daughter, Jiang Yinyin, had been often lost in thought these past few days, frequently falling into a daze, as if immersed in some inexplicable recollection, and she was difficult to come back to her senses when others called her.

Jiang Xue frowned, her anxiety growing, and immediately suggested:
"Why don't we find a spirit talisman master to take a look at Yin Yin? A spirit talisman master's spiritual power far exceeds that of ordinary people, and perhaps he can see through the anomaly."

“That’s right, we absolutely cannot neglect this matter.” The middle-aged man’s expression hardened, and he nodded in a deep voice. “Yinyin’s condition seems to be getting increasingly abnormal.”

Jiang Xue's face was full of worry, and her expression became increasingly anxious.

Meanwhile, Jiang Yinyin, standing to the side, was once again lost in a daze, her clear eyes empty and blank, as if her entire mind had drifted to a distant and unknown place.

Just as Jiang Xue and Jiang Lei were filled with worry and anxiety, a series of steady footsteps suddenly came from outside the door, followed by a respectful announcement from a martial arts school disciple.

"Reporting to the curator, there are four unfamiliar guests outside the door. They say they have come specifically to pay their respects to the curator."

Upon hearing the words, both Jiang Xue and Jiang Lei were taken aback.

Jiang Xue frowned slightly, a look of doubt on her face, and spoke softly:
"Father, at a time like this, I wonder who would come to visit us? We haven't had any friends or relatives send us any advance notice that they would be coming."

Jiang Lei frowned deeply, his tiger-like eyes filled with a hint of solemnity, and said in a deep voice:

"I have no idea about the details of this matter. No one contacted me beforehand, and I had never heard of any distinguished guests coming to visit Great Eagle City."

He pondered for a moment, his expression growing increasingly solemn, and then slowly sighed.
"I just hope it's not some bad news. Our Martial Alliance has already been in a difficult situation lately, with various forces stirring up trouble. We can't afford any more problems."

Without further thought, Jiang Lei immediately composed himself, strode forward, and pushed open the door. His gaze fell on the martial arts school disciples who were bowing and waiting at the door. He nodded slightly and said in a steady voice, "Lead the way."

The disciple immediately and respectfully agreed, bowing his head and behaving with utmost deference, not daring to show the slightest negligence.

However, Jiang Lei had been traveling the martial arts world for many years and had a keen and sharp eye. With just one glance, he caught a trace of undisguised restraint and awe deep in his disciple's eyes.

This subtle expression alone made him realize that the four guests who had come to his door were probably not to be underestimated. He just didn't know what their purpose was.

Seeing this, Jiang Xue immediately took Jiang Yinyin's hand, who was still somewhat dazed, and followed her father's footsteps, walking forward together. Jiang Yinyin was still in a daze, lost in thought, letting Jiang Xue hold her small hand and follow the group blankly.

……

Led by the bowing disciple, Jiang Lei and his group passed through the courtyard corridors and arrived directly at the reception room of the martial arts school.

Upon reaching the gate, the disciple who had led the way, knowing that he had been taken to his destination, immediately bowed his head and respectfully stepped aside, saying no more.

Jiang Lei nodded slightly to him, then pushed open the heavy wooden door and stepped into the reception room first. Jiang Xue, holding Jiang Yinyin's hand tightly, followed closely behind and they went in together.

As soon as he stepped into the hall, Jiang Lei's gaze swept towards the center of the reception room, and four calm eyes had already fallen on him the moment he entered.

Inside the spacious and well-organized reception hall, four figures were already seated: one man and three women.

The man sitting in the center looked to be only in his early twenties. He was exceptionally handsome and composed, the most dashing man Jiang Lei had ever seen in his half-life of wandering the martial world. The restrained aura emanating from him made people dare not underestimate him in the slightest.

To the left of the man sat a girl of about thirteen or fourteen years old. Her face was covered by a thin white veil, which concealed most of her features, revealing only a pair of clear and cold eyes. Her gaze was indifferent, exuding an aloof and cold aura. She had a dignified demeanor even when she was silent and still.

To the man's right sat two slightly younger girls, who were talking in hushed tones and occasionally glancing toward the door.

However, relying on his keen intuition honed over many years of experience, Jiang Lei vaguely sensed that the two girls' gazes were not fixed on him, their master, but rather looked past him and towards the direction behind him.

As Jiang Xue stepped into the reception room, her gaze inadvertently swept over the man, and she couldn't help but be slightly taken aback by his extraordinary and handsome demeanor.

It took her a moment to come to her senses. She quickly composed herself and subconsciously turned to look at Jiang Yinyin beside her. But what she saw made her heart flutter slightly.

Jiang Yinyin, who had been absent-minded and dazed all day recently, was now completely different from her previous dazed state. Her clear eyes were fixed on the blue-haired girl with a light veil covering her face, her gaze fixed and seemingly deeply attracted, unable to look away for even a moment.

Jiang Lei composed himself, took two steps forward, and slightly clasped his hands in a respectful gesture towards Xiao Ling, who sat in the center. His expression was respectful yet polite, and he spoke in a humble tone:
"I am Jiang Lei, the master of Eagle Martial Arts Academy. May I ask what brings you all here from afar to my Eagle Martial Arts Academy? If you have something to discuss, please feel free to speak frankly. I will do my best to accommodate you."

Xiao Ling nodded slightly, his expression remaining calm and composed, neither humble nor arrogant, his tone even and even:
"Since Director Jiang Lei is straightforward and direct, I will also be frank and state my purpose directly."

He glanced casually ahead and slowly spoke:
"I have come here specifically for one thing, and it is for your youngest daughter, Jiang Yinyin."

"What do you mean by that? Do you perhaps harbor ill intentions or malicious intent towards my daughter?"

Upon hearing that Xiao Ling had directly targeted Jiang Yinyin, Jiang Lei's expression suddenly hardened, and his aura tightened. He immediately stepped forward and firmly protected his two daughters behind him.

His eyes widened, and he stared at Xiao Ling warily. He had already gathered his Yuan Power in his palm, ready to fight instantly. His tone was filled with fierce anger: "If you really dare to make a move on my daughter, my broadsword is not to be trifled with!"

Jiang Xue's expression changed drastically. She immediately hugged Jiang Yinyin, who was in a daze, tightly and looked at Xiao Ling with wariness and hostility.

The slight goodwill that had arisen from Xiao Lingjuechen's handsome appearance had vanished, replaced by intense vigilance and hostility.

"Master Jiang, it's not that I'm looking down on you. It's just that with your current cultivation levels, you two are simply not good enough for me. Not to mention your mere Yingzhi Martial Arts School, even the entire Great Yan Dynasty could be reduced to ashes and vanished without a trace in the blink of an eye."

Xiao Ling chuckled lightly, a hint of indifference on his lips. His words were calm, yet carried an aura of domineering authority.

These words were spoken lightly, yet they exuded an unparalleled confidence that chilled people to the bone, causing Jiang Lei and Jiang Xue to shudder and feel a chill creep into their hearts, their bodies stiffening slightly.

Xiao Ling continued speaking calmly, her tone slightly softening as she finished:
"However, you don't need to be too wary. I'm not here to make things difficult for you. The reason I specifically sought out Jiang Yinyin is because she is a reincarnator. Her past life's identity is intricately connected to my silly sister, which is why I made this special trip today."

As he spoke, Xiao Ling raised his hand and gently ruffled Ying Huanhuan's ice-blue hair beside him.

Ying Huanhuan rolled her eyes at him, but didn't push him away. Instead, she followed his gaze and looked at Jiang Yinyin with intense curiosity. Their eyes met across the distance, and a strange tremor and mysterious connection flickered in each other's eyes.

"What? Yin Yin is actually a reincarnator?"

Upon hearing Xiao Ling's words, Jiang Lei and Jiang Xue were both shocked, their faces filled with disbelief.

The two never expected that Jiang Yinyin, who was usually well-behaved and naive, had such an extraordinary background.

It should be known that those who are reincarnated are all peak experts who reached the reincarnation realm in their previous lives. They never expected that they would be involved with such an important figure in this life, and that even the person closest to them is the reincarnation of such an important figure.

If everything Xiao Ling said is true, then Yin Yin's unusual state of mind and absent-mindedness these days will have a reason.

Jiang Xue subconsciously looked at Jiang Yinyin, only to see that her younger sister's gaze was still fixed on the blue-haired Ying Huanhuan.

Recalling Xiao Ling's words and seeing Yin Yin's strange expression and behavior, she suddenly had a vague guess in her heart. Perhaps Yin Yin's recent absent-mindedness was due to the fate of the girl in front of her.

Seeing the shocked expressions on the father and daughter's faces, Xiao Ling chuckled and spoke calmly.

"That's the situation. Although this may seem unbelievable and incomprehensible to you, it is an undeniable fact. However, from another perspective, this may also be an incredible opportunity for your family."

He paused briefly, his gaze sweeping over Jiang Lei and Jiang Xue, before slowly continuing.

"You should have heard of the Dao Sect. If you wish, I can personally take your family to settle there. The cultivation resources and growth environment you will receive there will be far superior to what you can find in this Great Wilderness County. Jiang Yinyin, burdened with the destiny of reincarnation, will also receive the best care and top-notch training at the Dao Sect, completely breaking free from the entanglements of her past life."
