On a rainy day, as the raindrops fell incessantly upon the world, a castle endured it with a solemnity. The castle seemed aged and a bit damaged too. There were cracks at many places from where the rainwater seeped inside. In the heart of the dull castle there was a fairly luxurious room which contrasted greatly with the exterior of the castle. In that luxurious room, a young boy in his fifteens was lying on a soft cozy bed in a rather defeated manner. He was devoid of any movement.
"Young master Wind. Are you alright?" a maid named Xui asked after she entered the room and she noticed her young master laying on his back with his eyes wide open staring at the roof. There was no movement in him. Xui doubted that he wasn't even breathing so she slowly approached him.
Xui's breath stagnated as she realized that young master Wind really wasn't breathing at all. It was as if he was dead!
KRRRRROOOOMM!!! Suddenly the clouds thundered and several lightning bolts crackled in the sky, dazzling the interior of the room with light flashing in from the windows.
Suddenly young master wind breathed in heavily and started coughing profusely as he got up and covered his mouth with a hand.
"Young master Wind!" Xui immediately approached the boy with concern and looked at him with her teary eyes. She was both duly shocked and relieved. Her young master was alive after all.
"Your sickness seems to be acting up again. Please drink this yin water. It will help you a bit. I will call mistress right away!" She said immediately taking out a bottle of yin water which was rich in yin energy and handed it to her master.
The boy in question was looking dazedly at his right hand which was stained with blood that he had just coughed out.
"IโฆI'll clean that." Xui said and quickly wiped Wind's hand with a towel. She then poured the yin water into a glass and handed it carefully to the boy. Seeing how he had stopped coughing, she was in no hurry to run off to the mistress; young master Wind's mother.
Wind glanced at the glass and took it, drinking it down in one breath and immediately felt better. His haziness cleared and he came about.
"Youโฆthank you." He said, astonishing the young lass. When had the young master wind ever thanked anyone? She blushed.
"Th-there is no need to thank me. I, Xui serve young master." She said lowering her head.
The boy smiled in response and said "Please, I'd like some peace. Could you come back in half an hour?" He asked politely.
"S...surely, young master. I will also inform mistress about your condition meanwhile." Xui said. Wind nodded in response and sat cross legged on the bed closing his eyes.
As the maid Xui left and closed the door, Wind started to circulate his chi energy throughout his meridians. As he did so, he realized that his chi was like fire flaring through his meridians, burning him internally. Immediately he broke into another fit of violent coughing. He grabbed for the yin water bottle that Xui had left behind and drank it all down. It felt like dozens of ice cubes had entered his dantian, immediately curbing the flaring chi.
Wind took a deep breath and plopped on the bed. He stared at the roof.
"Weak and troublesome..." He muttered and sighed after judging his body's condition. Following that, he started recalling his memories. His real name was Lu. He was the only prince of Mizu Empire. His father Mizu was a powerful yet kind emperor respected by everyone in the kingdom. But Lu was a spoiled brat. Ever since young age, he started indulging in sex and even cultivated several unorthodox dual cultivation techniques. He was frivolous and soiled many innocent females. As such, ridiculously, his harem grew to contain thousands of girls and women while his father, the emperor had taken only one wife in his lifetime, and was loyal to her. That queen had long since passed away. As such, emperor Mizu always cared for his only son and covered up for his misdoings by genuinely compensating Lu's victims.
Over the years, Lu became obsessed with dual cultivation and invented a unique dual cultivation technique. He literally became the king of bed and soon his fame rose. Several noble women themselves approached him to be his partner. The cultivation technique Lu had invented was called 'Ian' containing the middle words of yin and yang together. This was a technique that anyone could use regardless of their cultivation levels and make break-through in their cultivation. This resulted in his fame to rise. Lu also started cultivating a supreme level technique called perfect body technique which was found in some ancient ruins and given to him by Emperor Mizu. But the Perfect Body technique was incomplete and so no one could achieve a truly perfect body through it. But Lu was confident that he could crack the mystery of the perfect body technique and thus immersed himself in it.
Seeing Lu's newly rising abilities, Emperor Mizu felt satisfied. Even though Lu was a scum and perverted, he still was a genius in his own way and might actually become a legend by mastering the Perfect Body technique. However, the hopes and dreams were cut short as a rebellion occurred suddenly. Emperor Mizu was ambushed by his own ministers led by army general Jiao who ultimately killed Emperor Mizu. This followed by the massacre of everyone who was loyal to emperor Mizu. By the time Lu woke up from his cultivation, he was already besieged from all sides. His attainments in perfect body technique were not enough and he suffered an abject defeat at Jiao's hands and was killed mercilessly; only to awaken in the body of this young master Wind!
Lu opened his eyes and stared at the ceiling. He deduced that by some divine grace, he had been reincarnated! He now wanted to take revenge on Jiao, otherwise he could never forgive himself. He had spent most of his past short life indulging in pleasure and not manning up. Hence he could not help his father at his last moment. But now heavens had given him another chance at life. He could take revenge and set things right.
But, there were many problems in his path starting from the weak sick body of young master Wind. Wind was suffering from a rare disease called Excessive Yang syndrome. It turned the yang energy of males violent and overbearing; damaging the meridians and could even blast the dantian in the end. Dantian was the core of a cultivator or warior's power in their body. It generated chi with which cultivators could perform all sorts of techniques. Due to extreme yang syndrome, Wind was unable to cultivate. His body was weak to begin with. He felt weak like an ordinary human.
For Lu to avenge his father, he firstly needed to obtain a healthy body. He decided to pursue martial path in this life and unlock the secrets of perfect body technique. However healing this body came first. As he recalled the memories of Wind, whose body now he possessed; he understood that young master wind was a small prince of a weak state called Carny and didn't have any opportunities or wealth like Prince Lu. He was unable to cultivate and even his maids were stronger than him. This resulted into a complex and he became rude and reclusive. But no matter how many tantrums he threw, his mother always cared for him.
Sadly, Wind's father Deodomus was long gone. He was originally a travelling cultivator who fell in love with the young daughter of previous old lord of Carny state. Since Deodomus was good natured and strong enough, the old lord married his daughter Xiao to him. Old lord soon passed away and Deodomus lived with Xiao and produced a son named Wind. However, soon afterwards, Carny state was attacked by Kol kindom, a neighboring state. Deodomus wasn't strong enough and lost the battle. He retreated to the south of Carny and managed to gain his standing there thanks to the terrain. He stayed in south Carny for many years, trying to amass strength to gain Carny back from Kol but to no avail. He then left secretly to a mysterious fabled land in order to try his luck at obtaining some miraculous riches or power but he perished in there. Although it remained a secret, but Xiao had means to determine the status of her husband.
With Deodomus dead, Xiao steeled her heart and took over South Carny's administration as new lord and raised her only son- Wind by herself. Sadly, Wind turned out to be a weakling suffering from extreme yang syndrome which ruined his future prospects. Xiao relied on yin water and whatever knowledge she had, to keep Wind living but it ultimately failed to give him any hopes. That rainy night, young master wind tried to cultivate forcibly and died from the pain of burning his meridians. Surprisingly, that very moment, his body was possessed by Prince Lu who had been murdered by Jiao far away in Mizu Empire.
Wind/Lu massaged his temples as he sighed and put all pieces together. He didn't know how his soul ended up possessing Wind, but he realized that this was the best and only chance heavens would give him. He yearned to avenge his father emperor Mizu. That night, Lu decided to pursue martial arts seriously and set things right accepting the name Wind for himself.
