Immortal Venerable's Order

"Everyone off the bus!"

The bus driver's angry roar jolted everyone out of their sleep.

At this moment, the bus had somehow exited the highway and entered a parking lot.

In the back row of the bus sat a somewhat shabby young man named Rufeng. His disheveled appearance was all due to the person he loved deeply.

Rufeng's girlfriend, Wanqiu, was not only beautiful but also had an exceptional figure.

Ever since Rufeng and Wanqiu confirmed their relationship, Wanqiu's family had never taken a liking to him. They always looked down on him and made things difficult.

Wanqiu's mother believed that Rufeng, coming from the countryside, had no future. With her daughter's beauty, she was destined to marry into a wealthy family. She fundamentally looked down on the rural Rufeng.

Initially, Wanqiu resisted her mother's behavior, but as another man entered the picture, she gradually became cold toward Rufeng.

No matter how good Rufeng was to her, Wanqiu simply couldn't stand him. She consistently mocked him, hoping he would take the initiative to break up.

But Rufeng was a deeply affectionate man. No matter how Wanqiu neglected or belittled him, Rufeng always treated her well, as she was his first love.

Out of respect for her father, Wanqiu didn't want to break up first, but she couldn't handle Rufeng's persistence either.

One day, after the man proposed to Wanqiu at a lavish banquet, her treatment of Rufeng became nothing short of cruel.

In her effort to break up with Rufeng quickly, Wanqiu soon spent all his savings. But that wasn't the end of it. She brought Rufeng before that man and humiliated him before officially breaking up.

Of course, Rufeng disagreed. Who would have thought Wanqiu would walk up proudly to Rufeng, slap him several times in front of everyone, and mockingly sneer, "You, a poor boy from the countryside, dare to love me, Wanqiu? It's like a toad wanting to eat swan meat."

Rufeng was about to say something when someone kicked him far away, making him fall to the ground.

"Poor boy, don't you know? Everyone in Zhongzhou knows who I am, Young Master Dong. How dare you, a country bumpkin, compete with me for a woman! You must be tired of living."

Seeing Rufeng wipe the blood from his mouth, Young Master Dong gave a sinister smile, wrapped his arm around Wanqiu's waist, and viciously said to Rufeng, "Get lost now, or I won't mind making you disappear from this world forever."

Rufeng never imagined the usually gentle and lovely Wanqiu would treat him this way. Heartbroken, Rufeng quietly left amid the jeers.

When Rufeng reluctantly looked back, he saw Wanqiu with a fawning expression, tightly holding Young Master Dong's arm as they boarded a luxury car.

Rufeng, who was on his way home, took out his phone to check the time. It was exactly twelve noon.

"Get the hell off the bus and go eat. You have twenty minutes."

Rufeng adjusted his glasses in silence and got off the bus.

Entering the canteen in the parking lot, Rufeng asked the price while preparing to get his meal and was instantly shocked.

One meat and three vegetables, fifty-one yuan per meal!

"That's too expensive!"

Rufeng's eyes widened.

"Eat if you want, otherwise, leave!"

The chubby owner at the cash register roared angrily.

"Sigh, I've been hungry for almost a day but don't have much money left. I can't afford to spend recklessly. Eating some instant noodles will do; getting home safely is enough...."

Thinking this, Rufeng went to the supermarket and bought a cup of instant noodles.

After spending ten yuan and still not finishing his noodles, the sound of a car engine startled him.

Rufeng quickly waved to stop the bus, but it sped away, disappearing from his sight.

Frustrated, Rufeng took a deep sip of the remaining noodle broth.

"Damn it, how can they treat people like this?"

Angry, Rufeng threw the empty noodle cup toward the trash can, then lit a cigarette, inhaled deeply, and wondered what to do next. Suddenly, a domineering voice interrupted him.

"Are you blind or something?"

Rufeng looked up to see the chubby owner pointing at a soup stain on his pants, cursing, "You dog, you've ruined my new pants! Are you tired of living?"

Even though Rufeng knew he hadn't caused the soup stain, in this unfamiliar place, he could only swallow his pride.

"I'm sorry!"

"Sorry isn't enough! Pay up!"

Hearing "pay," Rufeng panicked.

Wanqiu had swindled all his money, leaving him barely enough for the trip home. Fortunately, he had a good reputation and managed to borrow five hundred yuan from a fellow villager to buy the ticket home.

Who would have thought something like this would happen here?

"No, I have no money..."

Before Rufeng could finish, the chubby owner flew into a rage.

"Damn it, I've had enough of you. No money, huh..."

With that, the chubby owner clenched his fists and stormed toward Rufeng in fury.

Suddenly, a fierce wind blew, accompanied by lightning and thunder, then abruptly stopped. A blinding light descended from the sky, passing through Rufeng's body, and then a burst of laughter erupted from him.

"Hahaha..."

Rufeng's sudden maniacal laughter stunned the chubby owner.

"I actually did it! I, Rufeng, have finally managed to reunite with my body just before it became useless. My divine soul successfully attached!"

Rufeng stood there with a look of contempt.

"Hmph, you're about to die, and you're still spouting nonsense. What a fool!"

The chubby owner cracked his joints, causing a series of bone sounds, then took off his vest. As he moved around, a large gold chain jiggled along with his flabby flesh. His tattoos appeared like ripples on water. This intimidating sight would surely scare a timid person into not looking directly.

"Hmph!"

With a dismissive snort, the chubby owner walked up to Rufeng disdainfully. "Poor boy, you've really made me, Brother Leopard, angry..."

As Rufeng's memories from his two lives merged, he recalled that right after breaking up with Wanqiu, while on his way home, it was this chubby owner who had broken his leg. A punch to his head had caused a concussion, and he became mentally impaired due to delayed treatment.

For over ten years, Rufeng, with a limp, wandered as a beggar, eating garbage and living without dignity, ridiculed by others. He eventually froze to death one cold winter night on the street, never seeing his parents again.

Yet, fate had other plans. Shortly after Rufeng died, he reincarnated into a world of cultivation. After ten thousand years of arduous training, he finally ascended to the position of an Immortal Venerable.

But during a battle with an external tribe, he was betrayed by his closest confidant and surrounded by enemies. To prevent the enemy's victory, Rufeng chose to self-destruct and end his life.

Fortunately, Rufeng cultivated the Supreme Divine Cultivation Method, the "Five Elements Qiankun Cultivation God Art." As he self-destructed, the "Five Elements Qiankun Cultivation God Art" protected his divine soul, preventing it from being utterly destroyed.

Now, possessing his own Immortal Venerable Divine Soul, Rufeng was no longer the weak Rufeng of the past. One must not forget that the soul inhabiting him now belonged to an Immortal Venerable with supreme Dao Techniques.

"Brother Leopard, huh? You think you're so impressive!"

At this moment, Rufeng's demeanor changed. His body shuddered, and an extreme chill burst forth from him.

In that instant, Brother Leopard felt a bone-chilling cold, as if the surrounding air was about to freeze.

An inexplicable fear surged through Brother Leopard's heart, making his back cold as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.

Unhurriedly, Rufeng removed his glasses and gently tossed them toward Brother Leopard.

"Thud!"

Though it seemed Rufeng didn't exert much force, Brother Leopard's legs gave out, causing him to fall to the ground with a heavy thud.
