In a faraway land, there was a village located between two hills, the village had a population of about ten thousand people which was a lot. Without a doubt, this village was no ordinary.
A group of men was walking towards the field to work and when they got there they saw a muscular man already working on the field. The group instantly recognized him and a person shouted, "Hey, brother Ling why are you working so early??"
An elderly woman who was sunbathing replied, "Don't you know he is going to be a father??"
The group instantly became surprised and thought, "No wonder he looks so happy"
The muscular man worked as fast as he can to return home as quickly as possible. An hour passed by and the muscular man took a break.
After splashing water on his face, he picked up the hoe ready to continue his work.
Before he could continue his work, a man came running towards him, the muscular man said, "Take it slowly why are you running so fast??"
Looking at the muscular man he replied, "Your wife *huff* *huff* gave birth to a child".
At that moment the muscular man started running four times as fast as him. Soon, the muscular reached his home and heard a baby crying. When the muscular man walked inside his house he saw a baby beside his wife.
Tears started coming out of eyes as he slowly carried the baby while the woman smiled as she watched father and a son see each other for the first time.
The muscular man asked, "What should we name him??"
The women replied calmly, "As we discussed in the previous month we shall name him Ling Chen"
The muscular man raised his baby and said happily, "Yes, from now on we shall call him Ling Chen"
Two years later,
A small and cute boy walked towards a woman who was washing clothes, when the woman realized her son approaching her she smiled at the boy asking, "Is there a problem my little Ling??"
The cute little boy shook his head and continued to watch his mother. After cleaning her hands she picked up Ling Chen and said, "You truly are a genius my little Ling, whenever people think about baby or children they mostly think the trouble and the noise those little devils create but my little Ling never does anything, isn't it??
Ling Chen nodded and replied with a cute expression, "Yes mother"
Ling Chen's mother smiled looking at her little son, "Why don't you go out and play my dear, I have some work to do"
Ling Chen nodded and left to not disturb her. After Ling Chen walked inside his door he said to himself, "It truly is a blessing to have such a family".
In his past life, his family was killed by bandits and was captured as a slave. He had to work every day and sometimes become a meat shield. One day he got news somebody had bought him and the one who bought him was his master mostly known as the fist maniac. Ling Chen never knew why his master bought him but it was his job to serve him. After being bought he only had to do some chores and nothing else.
His life had become significantly better and he no longer had to work on some mines or become a meat shield but he was forced to do hellish training.
The training was for him so Ling Chen never complained about it, also a slave didn't have even had the right to complain either so it was better than working on the mines.
Soon Fist maniac accepted Ling Chen as his disciple and started to teach him. Ling Chen started to train diligently and become well known throughout the world. It was mainly due to his master as his master's name wasn't for nothing. His master was well known throughout the world for his madness about fist but Ling Chen wasn't only taught fist technique, he was also taught about swords, spears, and other things. Ling Chen also never knew his master's real name and didn't bother asking as his master always disliked someone asking his real name. After his master died of old age Ling Chen decided to explore the world and enjoy his life.
This was what he decided but after fifteen years he got into conflict with the arcane sect. The reason for his conflict was because he had discovered an unknown tomb. Discovering tomb wasn't something new but when the arcane sect got the news they sent assassins to kill Ling Chen. Many times the assassins failed and the arcane sect finally decided to send their inner disciples and an elder.
Ling Chen wanted to compromise with the arcane sect as he didn't want to offend a powerhouse like arcane sect but looking at their act he knew arcane sect would never even try to compromise with him. Furthermore, looking at how many times they sent assassins to kill him Ling Chen had long dropped the idea of giving [Energy Absorption Art] to them just to make them go away.
The arcane sect had long crossed the line and Ling Chen wasn't willing to back down. The arcane sect might be strong but he was known to be a mad man. Ling Chen wasn't actually a mad man but considering how many people and sects he had offended he truly was a mad man.
Ling Chen wasn't a type of guy to back down after someone tried to kill him but he also knew he alone couldn't take on the arcane sect so he decided to make the arcane sect pay as much as possible and that he did.
He was not only able to kill their core disciples but also killed their grand elder which greatly reduced their power. Ling Chen knew arcane sect had created a lot of enemies and even if the arcane sect tried to hide the death of their so many members they won't be able to. Their enemies would probably even attack and devour the arcane sect as such Ling Chen didn't have much hope of getting his revenge.
