SU YANG

Two figures sat on the highest cliff within the Eternal Prison Cliff, an older man and a handsome young man with divine features. The older man gave off an ancient aura that caused the space around him to move and twist, and the young man casually sat beside him, as if the heavy atmosphere didn't bother him.

"Young man, what crime have you committed to keeping yourself trapped in this gloomy place? You don't look like someone who belongs here," The old man asked, his gaze filled with interest as he stared at the young man, who was surrounded by a noble aura that calmed the space around him.

The young man showed a slight smile. "I have done many things, one of which is like devouring the forbidden fruit created by His Majesty, the Heavenly Emperor," he said calmly.

The older man raised his eyebrows in surprise, and his gaze flickered with surprise as he stared at the young man.

"Y-Y-You…" Not sure what to say, the older man stuttered non-stop. Surprised, this was a first for someone as old as him, not to mention his eyes widened in surprise that he had never been like this in countless years.

"I'm more surprised that you're still alive after all that than what you've done!" said the old man

The young man just smiled at his words.

Suddenly, the old man burst into laughter, "hahaha, I can already imagine the face of the raging Heavenly Emperor when he first heard the news! Ahahaha! Young man, I like you! What's your name?"

The ancient aura surrounding the older man had long since disappeared. He looked and acted more like a good grandpa than before now.

"My name is Su Yang," said the young man.

"Then Su Yang, do you want to leave this place?" The older man said with a grin, showing his two rows of yellow teeth.

Su Yang turned his head to see the older man's face for the first time. It was filled with wrinkles, almost like dried fruit. However, even though his face was like that of a ghost, his eyes were as clear as water, and they shone brighter than the brightest stars in this eternal night sky.

"What is the point?" Su Yang said a moment later,

"Even if I were to leave this place, it would only further inflame the Heavenly Emperor's fury. I think I'd rather sit here until my soul rots than have to deal with the Heavenly Emperor's wrath constantly." Say Su Yang again

"What if I said that you could go and not have to worry about the Divine Emperor?" The older man kept a grin on his face, but deep within his gaze was radiating something and flickering.

"So what? What should I do after leaving? Continuing to live the sinful life I've been living for thousands of years? Or take revenge on those who have accused me?" Su Yang said with a bit of emotion and quickly calmed his emotions.

"That's up to you." said the old man.

Su Yang suddenly extended his hand towards the night sky and made a grasping motion as if he wanted to reach for the shining stars above.

"Then… if one day I decide to leave this place, I will…." He suddenly stopped talking and smiled: "Forget it. I'd still rather laze around in this place until I die."

The older man suddenly started laughing again.

"haha, you are still too young to completely hide your wish from this ancient one, young man! Even if you stay here for good, can you die of old age? An immortal like yourself? Hehehe, your wish, I will grant it !" the old man suddenly stood up and waved his sleeve, and the night sky that had not changed since the creation of this Eternal Prison Cliff suddenly turned into day, confusing every soul living there.

"You, who are you?" Su Yang looked at the grinning older man with wide eyes.

"Only an old man doesn't have a better job. and before I send you off, I want to thank you for what you did," The old man said.

"Thank you? What do you mean by-"

Before Su Yang could ask the older man why he was grateful, a bright white light suddenly engulfed the world, eliminating his sight.

Immediately after being blinded by the white light, Su Yang felt a sharp pain near his heart, like a sword had just stabbed him. He opened his eyes wide to see a handsome young man with a ferocious grin on his face, standing in front of him on a wide platform, and in his grip was a steel sword.

"Tch. I almost stabbed his heart," the handsome young man muttered.

Su Yang looked down to see a sword pierce his body and was immediately alert.

"Get lost!" Within Su Yang's body exploded an extraordinary aura filled with killing intent, causing the handsome youth in front of him and dozens of people around their stage to cough up a mouthful of blood.

And because the handsome young man was standing so close to Su Yang, he immediately fell unconscious after coughing up blood.

The place instantly became silent, and Su Yang took out the sword still stuck to his chest, ignoring the pain.

After removing the sword from his chest, Su Yang quickly searched through his memories.

In his memories, he discovered that he was in the body of a young cultivator with the same name as Su Yang and that he had the same appearance as his younger self. However, the similarities stop there, and everything else is different.

His cultivation base was almost non-existent compared to his old cultivation base, and he was currently a disciple of the Profound Blossom Sect, a sect that focused heavily on dual cultivation – where two people of different genders enjoyed the dual practice of cultivating! It was as if he had traveled back to when he was just a young boy who had just started cultivating!

As for how he got into this situation, the 'Su Yang' before him went to a female disciple named Xing Xing and ended up offending his current partner, Yan Ming, the now unconscious handsome young man in front of him, resulting in a deathmatch between them.

"In the name of heaven, what happened?!" Su Yang suddenly remembered how the older man in the Eternal Prison Cliff said that he would help him leave the place.

"Did he send me to the past… No… I don't remember ever being a disciple of this Profound Blossom Sect… Then…"

A scream suddenly broke the silence in the middle of Su Yang's thoughts. "Everyone, stop your moves!"

A middle-aged man jumped onto the stage and looked at the unconscious Su Yang and Yan Ming with a frown. "Who allowed the two of you to have a deathmatch today? Go before I summon the disciplinary squad!"

"Yes, Elder Sun!" The disciples around the stage hurriedly left, leaving only Su Yang and Yan Ming on the stage.

Su Yang decided to leave this place first and reflect on it later. Before jumping off the stage, the middle-aged man named Elder Sun looked at him and said: "What is your name?"

"Su Yang," he replied in a calm tone.

Elder Sun nodded and no longer looked at him and directly approached to pick up the unconscious Yan Ming to take him away.

After leaving the stage, Su Yang searched through his memories and started walking toward his residence.
