Chapter 2: Chapter 2: Divine Emperor of Fate
Lin Ming had a long dream.
In the dream, he arrived in a picturesque paradise.
Here, there was a huge palace.
In the palace, there was only a crystal bed, on which lay a sleeping woman.
This woman had flawless beauty, beyond words to describe. She was like a heavenly goddess, without any flaws.
For some reason, seeing this woman, Lin Ming's heart swelled with endless tenderness.
It seemed like this woman was once his most beloved.
Involuntarily, Lin Ming leaned down and kissed the woman's lips.
At that moment, the woman suddenly opened her eyes.
Her eyes were incredibly beautiful, clear as autumn water and sparkling like the starry sky.
"I'm sorry, I, I..." Lin Ming was startled, unable to appreciate her beauty, but instead, he didn't know how to explain.
"You've come, Ming Chen. I've been waiting for you for a thousand years!" The woman spoke softly, her voice like a precious gem, clear and crisp.
But her words left Lin Ming dumbfounded. "Ming Chen? You've been waiting for me for a thousand years?"
"Yes, I've been sleeping for a thousand years, only waiting for your return!" The woman looked deeply at him.
"Who are you? Who am I? Why have you been waiting for me?" Lin Ming asked in confusion.
"You are the former Emperor fate, Lin Ming, and I am your lover, Xiao Moxian!" The woman said with a playful smile, "I am also Emperor Blue Lotus!"
"I am the Emperor fate? It seems like I'm really dreaming," Lin Ming smiled bitterly. "Right now, I'm just a useless son-in-law, without money or ability..."
"When we were betrayed, I fell into a deep sleep, while you transcended reincarnation. Fortunately, you have awakened, and I will help you regain your peak," Xiao Moxian said.
"I'm not interested in reaching the peak or being an Emperor. I just want to be a true man, a dignified man," Lin Ming said with a bitter smile.
"As long as you awaken your memories, everything will be fine. Now, let me help you understand your past and present..."
As Lin Ming was stunned, Xiao Moxian reached out her jade arms and hugged Lin Ming's neck, kissing him on the forehead.
A colorful light emanated from her lips, eventually entering Lin Ming's forehead.
"I have slept here for a thousand years. Don't let me wait too long!"
"Wait for your glorious return, let's ascend to the Nine Heavens together, and recreate our peerless brilliance!"
"Ming Chen, I'm waiting for you, always waiting for you..."
The beautiful, sad, and longing voice echoed in Lin Ming's mind, and he felt a burst of strange and colorful changes before seeming to enter a black hole.
"Hoo!"
Lin Ming gasped heavily, suddenly opening his eyes.
In his dazed mind, it seemed like something had been added.
As Lin Ming's thoughts stirred, he felt endless information flooding into his mind, almost causing his head to explode.
However, this feeling came and went quickly, and Lin Ming soon regained clarity.
"Memories of the Emperor fate?" Lin Ming was dumbfounded. "That wasn't a dream? It's real? Have I really encountered an adventure?"
"Nine star Art..." In his memories, Lin Ming gained knowledge of countless pill refining techniques, as well as powerful martial arts to complement them.
"It seems that Heaven hasn't given up on me!" Lin Ming suppressed his excitement and began to cultivate according to the martial arts.
Soon, a weak flow of energy circulated within his body, as if it were as thin as a strand of hair, constantly flowing according to his command, which was quite miraculous.
After some time, Lin Ming woke up again, realizing that he had remarkably heightened senses, and the world before him seemed to have more depth.
He surveyed his surroundings and found himself still by the river. Judging by the sun overhead, it was already the afternoon of the next day.
Being in a relatively remote location, no one had noticed Lin Ming.
Lin Ming clenched his fist, feeling the powerful force within him, and couldn't help but grin foolishly before heading back home.
At this moment, Sheng Mei and Sheng Wei were both not at home.
Feeling wet all over, Lin Ming took off his clothes and entered the bathroom to take a hot bath.
But suddenly, Lin Ming saw Sheng Mei's clothes in the laundry basket!
Lin Ming's eyes suddenly welled up with heat.
"She's not home right now, so it should be fine for me to just take a look, right? Just a quick look..."
Trembling, he reached out his hand...
Click!
The bathroom door suddenly opened from the outside.
Lin Ming looked at the sudden appearance of Sheng Mei and was instantly stunned!
"Ah!"
Sheng Mei let out a scream.
"You bastard Lin Ming, how dare you do such disgusting things in my bathroom!"
"Um, could you please leave first?" Lin Ming said weakly.
He was extremely embarrassed at this moment, wishing he could find a hole to hide in.
"Hurry up and get out!" Sheng Mei shouted angrily, slamming the door shut.
"Uh..." Lin Ming quickly washed up and then walked out nervously.
Sheng Mei sat with her legs crossed on a chair, her face tense, emitting a cold aura.
Lin Ming felt apprehensive, but still tried to explain, "Um, let me explain, it's all a misunderstanding..."
"Misunderstanding? I saw it with my own eyes, what's there to misunderstand?" Sheng Mei sneered. "I didn't expect you to be like this, disgusting!"
Thinking about her clothes, which might have been tampered with by Lin Ming, Sheng Mei shivered with goosebumps.
Lin Ming couldn't argue his way out of this. It was an unsalvageable situation, and he blamed himself for his foolishness.
"Believe it or not, I didn't do anything, it's up to you to think what you want!" Lin Ming said stubbornly.
"You!" Sheng Mei was infuriated by Lin Ming's uncooperativeness.
He does something wrong and refuses to admit it. How did she not notice before that this guy has such a thick skin?!
"Get out!" Sheng Mei trembled, pointing to the door.
Lin Ming smiled bitterly, turned around, and left, then sat in the yard lost in thought.
In his mind, he kept seeing Sheng Mei's cold and disdainful eyes.
"My first half of life was a complete failure, utterly worthless... But from now on, I'll make you all look at me differently!"
Thinking of his heritage, Lin Ming felt a surge of determination.
