As soon as Long Tian entered into his soul consciousness, the soul remnant of the owner of his new body immediately asked him. "Who are you? How did you get into my body?"
"My name is Long Tian, and I come from another world. As for how I got into your body, I don't know the answer myself because I also died in my world. And when I woke up, my soul was already inhabiting your body." Long Tian replied casually, but suddenly his eyes narrowed as he saw black stains appearing on Xia Tian's remnant soul. Then he asked. "Why are you still lingering here? Do you still have a burden that you can't let go of? Black stains have started appearing on your soul; if you don't enter the circle of reincarnation soon, you will not be able to reincarnate again, and your soul will vanish forever."
"Sigh, you're right, Long Tian." Xia Tian said with a sigh. "I still find it hard to leave my mother because she only had me in this world, and she would be despondent if she found out I was dead."
Long Tian shook his head at him. "There's nothing you can do anymore, Xia Tian. Accept that you're already dead and must enter the circle of reincarnation immediately, or it will be too late for you."
"But-"
"I know that losing our loved ones is truly painful, Xia Tian. For hundreds of years, I have tried to revive my wife. Even with my status as the strongest and using an ancient forbidden art, I still can't go against the will of fate. In the end, not only did I fail to bring my wife back to life, but I also died in the process." Long Tian immediately interrupted him. He felt that he had to directly persuade Xia Tian to enter the circle of reincarnation because the black stains continued to grow. "But now I'm alive again and living as you, so your mother will never know that you are dead. This way, she won't be sad and can still move on with her life. You should also continue your life, so reincarnate and live as a new person."
Xia Tian fell silent, and he looked at Long Tian with a complicated look. He also realized there was no way he could come back to life, especially now that his body had already belonged to Long Tian. Before long, he dejectedly sighed and said. "I understand, Long Tian. I beg of you, please take good care of my mother and never tell her that I am dead."
"You don't have to worry, I will definitely take good care of your mother, and I will never tell her that her son is dead either." Long Tian nodded in agreement, then he asked. "Do you still have any other wishes? Just tell me, if I can do it, then I will definitely fulfill your wish."
Xia Tian was silent for a while and thought. A few moments later, he spoke again. "I don't know your true identity, but from your demeanor and aura, I'm sure you weren't an ordinary person in your previous life. So my last wish, I want you to find my father's killer, and please avenge my father. Moreover, the culprit has made my mother miserable for years."
"Your father was murdered?" Long Tian asked, raising an eyebrow because he didn't find it in his memory, and he discovered that Xia Tian's father had died in the forest.
"I know you must be confused because I couldn't remember it when I was alive. But when I died, all the memories came back to me." Long Tian nodded in understanding, and Xia Tian continued. "Frankly speaking, I don't know the identity of my father's killer, but I'm sure that my grandfather and mother knew the killer's identity, but they never wanted to tell me."
"I agree. Sooner or later, I will definitely find your father's killer." Long Tian said with a nod, but he suddenly remembered something. "Anyway, do you remember who crippled your spiritual root?"
Xia Tian nodded to him. "Her name is Liu Rouyan, and she is one of the elders of my mother's family, the Liu Main Family."
"Okay, hurry up and go to the reincarnation circle because your time is out." Long Tian urged him as he saw more and more black stains on Xia Tian's soul.
Xia Tian's soul remnant slowly began to disappear, and he said one last time with a smile. "Thank you, Long Tian."
Long Tian did not immediately come out of his soul consciousness, and he still stared at the place where Xia Tian's soul remnant was. After a while, he sighed and muttered. "Sigh, you don't need to worry, Xia Tian. I, Long Tian, will definitely fulfill my promises to you, and I will definitely avenge your father in the future. Before that, I have to recover my spiritual root first, but I don't know whether or not the herbs I need to restore my spiritual root exist in this world."
"Please forgive me, Lifen. Looks like I won't be able to see you again forever." He sadly muttered as soon as he came out of his soul consciousness and stared up at the ceiling of his room as he recalled the figure of his wife.
But he immediately raised his eyebrows when he tried to move his body because it was severely injured earlier, but now it had suddenly returned to its original state.
He immediately got out of bed, moved in front of the mirror, and examined his body in front of the mirror. He continued to examine all parts of his body one by one, as he said in confusion. "What exactly happened? How come my body can recover by itself?"
But just when he was feeling confused, suddenly, a little girl's voice screamed inside his head with a sob. [Master!]
