Hadrian Kingdom, a small village near Spirit City.
"Run, Spirit Masters are killing people!" "Wuwu, Mama, where are you?" "Little Bao, hide quickly!" Cries and screams filled the entire village, and blood covered the ground like a purgatory.
A short, stout man with some unease in his eyes turned his head and scanned around: "Boss, causing such a commotion here, will there be trouble?"
A gaunt, gloomy man dressed in black glanced back.
"The Spirit Hall enforcement team is chasing too closely. If we don't recover our spirit power quickly, we'll die by their hands sooner or later."
Not far away, a woman in red dragged a man over with her Spirit, the Bloodthirsty Vine.
"Hehehe, Little Six, you're too nervous. Do you want to grab a woman to let off some steam? Those mad dogs from Spirit Hall, we'll make them die sooner or later!"
"Alright, hurry up and recover your spirit power, then leave quickly!" The gloomy man looked at the red-clad woman with displeasure.
"Alright, alright, Boss, you're just too cautious," the red-clad woman said with an indifferent shrug.
"Boom!"
A loud bang came from afar. "Fallen Spirit Masters, how dare you slaughter a village? You're seeking death!"
"Not good, something happened on Old Seven's side. Let's go save him quickly!"
"Yes," the three of them stopped joking and rushed out of the village.
Outside the village, an elder in a luxurious red robe appeared, accompanied by a purple-clad deacon and seven black-clad deacons. One of the black-clad deacons held a man with a severed arm.
"All fallen Spirit Masters deserve to die. Let the light of the angels purify him."
The red-robed elder said indifferently, then turned to look at the three people who had emerged from the village.
"Heh, Red-robed Bishop! Spirit Hall really thinks highly of us four, to send a Spirit Saint personally. It seems there's no escape," the gloomy man said to the red-robed elder, a bitter taste in his mouth.
"You seven wantonly slaughtered innocents, were pursued by Spirit Hall, and showed no remorse. You even continuously massacred villages. After three of you died, instead of fleeing to Slaughter City, you dared to approach Spirit City? Kill them."
A cold light flashed in the red-robed elder's eyes as he ordered his subordinates.
"Haha, it's death no matter where we go. Third Sister, Little Six, killing one is a gain." The gloomy man led the two others to fight against the deacons.
After a glance, the red-robed elder ignored their struggle and turned to walk into the now silent village.
Looking at the scene of blood and corpses everywhere, he continued to search with a frosty expression.
"Are they all dead?" Less than an incense stick's time later, the red-robed elder held a child of about two years old and looked at the deacons who had come to him.
"Yes, all three have been executed, Your Grace, Bishop." The purple-clad deacon placed one hand on his chest and bowed.
"Go search again, see if there are any survivors." The Bishop handed the child to a black-clad deacon, then turned and continued his search.
...
One year later, Spirit City Orphanage.
"Bai Yu! You're looking at the sun again. You always look at the sun during the day and the moon at night. What's so good about it?"
A small girl with short hair and fair skin, about four years old, walked over with two boys her age and asked the boy who looked about three years old sitting on the flowerbed.
"Tsk, Hu Liena, what do you little brats understand? I'm observing the laws of heaven and earth, comprehending the Way of Yin and Yang."
The little boy, Bai Yu, turned his head lazily, looking helplessly at Hu Liena, who always came to bother him for no reason.
"Tch, keep bragging. You're just looking at the sun, what laws? And who are you calling a little brat? You should call me Sister Nana! Ge, Yan, hold him down! I'm going to teach him a lesson!"
Hu Liena put one hand on her hip, pointed at Bai Yu with the other, and turned to shout at the two children following her.
Bai Yu, one of the two survivors of the village massacred by fallen Spirit Masters a year ago. The other one was older and had no spirit power when he awakened his Spirit a few days ago.
However, he had a good relationship with the chef uncle in the cafeteria and went to learn how to cook. Bai Yu was young, only three years old, and still had to spend three more years here. Everyone had a bright future!
This life was Bai Yu's second life. In his previous life, he had congenital heart disease since childhood. Fortunately, his family was well-off, and his father and elder brother were good at making money, so he didn't need to work.
Before transmigrating, he was traveling to Chengdu. At a street stall in the antique district, he bought a purple-gold, straight-bladed ornament. That night, while reading Douluo 2 novels in his hotel, he got so angry that he had a heart attack.
The name Bai Yu had no special meaning; it was simply because when he was born in this life, his father caught a large white-scaled fish, and his surname happened to be Bai, so he was named Bai Yu.
It must have been that Meng Po's soup was watered down. Under the stimulation of the fallen Spirit Masters' bloody massacre, the two-year-old Bai Yu awakened his memories prematurely and fainted on the spot.
When Bai Yu woke up again, he was already in the Spirit City Orphanage.
His memories from his previous life, the fragmented memories from his current life before the age of two, and the purple-gold ornament he bought also appeared in his mind, transforming into a blade named Hong Ming.
This blade also brought him something that looked like both words and pictures, called the Law Diagram, which made his two-year-old brain feel muddled and his head ache intensely.
This feeling of a second chance, and with a little girl still chattering non-stop beside him, Bai Yu, unable to bear it any longer, waved his arm haphazardly.
Then, with a crisp slap, time seemed to stand still. The scene that followed, well… let's just say it was a sleepless night of wailing.
"No, don't, I give up! Hello, Sister Nana, goodbye, Sister Nana!" Bai Yu turned and ran out, but he was a step too late and was pinned to the ground.
"Still daring to run? Hold him down for me, butt up! Today I'm going to make it swell!"
Yan and Xie Yue chuckled while pinning him down: "Sorry, brother, we're also very heartbroken!"
...
"I say, it's been a year, and you've already dealt with me several times. It should be over by now, right?" Bai Yu rubbed his slightly sore butt, stood up, and looked at Hu Liena.
"Hmph, I'm not that petty. I just came to play with you today. Did you see the Spirit Awakening three days ago? I really want to awaken a powerful Spirit!" Hu Liena's bright eyes gleamed with longing.
Yan turned to look at Hu Liena, revealing a fawning smile: "Don't worry, Nana, you'll definitely awaken a powerful Spirit and become a genius with innate full spirit power."
Xie Yue shook his head: "I don't ask for that much; as long as I have spirit power, it's fine."
"Don't worry, the innate spirit power of you three won't be lower than rank eight. This is my blessing to you," Bai Yu said with a confident smile.
"You said that! If our Spirit Awakening in two years isn't rank eight, we'll make you pay!" Hu Liena happily waved her small fist.
"Of course!" Bai Yu smiled, muttering to himself: "How could it not be? Are you innate rank nine or nine and a half? And those two are definitely rank eight or above. Otherwise, how could they be called the Spirit Hall's Golden Generation?"
"Hehe, thank you for your blessing, Bai Yu. Today, we'll take you to play with us."
Bai Yu refused without thinking: "No, I still have things to do."
This Law Diagram was like looking at flowers through a fog, obscure and difficult to understand. He had been observing the sun and moon for a year and had only barely grasped a bit of the Way of Yin and Yang. How could he have time to play?
"No, you must come! If you don't, I'll beat you!" Hu Liena directly grabbed Bai Yu and pulled him up.
Bai Yu's face showed helplessness: "Alright, alright, I'll go, I'll go, I'll go. By the way, what are we playing?"
"Spirit Master games, do you know how to play? Do you want me to teach you?"
"None of us have awakened our Spirits yet, what Spirit Master games? Childish!" The four of them walked away, bickering.
This is my first novel. I've read too many novels, and suddenly I had the urge to write one, so I immediately put it into action. I hope for a good start.
