Chapter 79: Introduction — Mu Chen!
Mu Chen!
Mu Chen was born in a small village at the foot of the Heaven Fall mountains. His parents were unknown, and he was left on the doorstep of a local blacksmith's family.
The blacksmith, a kind-hearted man named Wang, took Mu Chen in and raised him as his own.
As a child, Mu Chen was different from the others... Like a lot different.
He would often space out, staring at nothing in particular, and his eyes would glaze over as if he was seeing something that wasn't there.
The villagers thought he was just a bit slow, but Wang noticed that Mu Chen's "daydreaming" episodes would often coincide with strange events or news from afar.
It is as if Mu Chen was somehow sensing things before they happened, some kind of paranormal farsight able to see the future or take a glimpse of it, at least.
As Mu Chen grew older, his abilities became more pronounced.
He would see flashes of images from somewhere else, hear whispers in his mind, and sense the emotions of those around him.
It was like he had a special connection to the world, one that went beyond the ordinary senses.
When Mu Chen turned 12, Wang had arranged a future marriage for Mu Chen...
However, over the course of time, that fiancee, eloped with Beta Fang as she was coming cheap whore, bending in front of the strong.
Not only that, but disaster struck harder than heavenly tribulation.
Wang died in a bandit attack, leaving Mu Chen alone.
At the time, He was 17 and finally decided to join the Heaven Fall sect with his mediocre talent.
He was just like an average person only difference was he could peek at the future, past, or very far away.
Noticeably, he also possesses some strange black marks or tattoos on his back, which feel like ancient runes of some kind of seal.
During the time, the sect was known for its skilled warriors and wise masters and was a silver-tier sect.
With that, He only cultivated alone and rarely talked with a time else but the hatred for Beta Fang was still there as how could he let it go... The girl he liked very much was swayed by others.

At the present,
Mu Chen felt the storm clouds gathering, the winds of change swirling around him. Like the calm before the tempest, the air was thick with an ominous tension.
His gut sense is sweating.
As he strode through the serene gardens, the chirping of birds seemed to fade, replaced by an eerie silence that set his nerves on edge.
His ability to feel the surroundings was haunting him.
The lush greenery, usually a balm for his soul, now appeared to dim, as if the very plants sensed the impending darkness.
His brow furrowed, his senses attuned to the subtle shifts in the sect's negative energy.
It was as if the foundations of the hallowed halls were shifting, a crack forming in the once impenetrable facade.
He moved with a predatory grace, his steps measured and sure, like a wolf stalking its prey... However, he wasn't the predator, he was just hiding from disciples who were in search of him.
His eyes which were once warm and earnest, now gleamed with a steely resolve obviously to remove the black dot from his name.
"Beta Fang! You Trash!" he murmured, the name like a curse upon his lips.
"Your ambition will be your undoing, I will definitely kill you,"
Mu Chen knew that the path ahead would be fraught with challenges, but he was no stranger to adversity... If possible, he wants to end it all, either he will continue to live or leave this world behind.
He wants a life and death duel.
He had weathered many storms, his spirit forged in the crucible trials, as a chosen one even if he wanted to cultivate peacefully, heaven didn't allow him.
Now, as he faced this new threat, he was like a towering oak, firmly rooted in the soil of his convictions.
All the past hatred and bad omen, Mu Chen wants to remove it by roots.
No matter how the winds of fate howled, he would remain steadfast and roar like a lion at the end, full of pride and dignity.
As he approached the Sect Master's chambers free from the disciple's eyes, Mu Chen took a deep breath, steadying his nerves.
However, before he could enter... He felt his heart beating faster and faster.

At the same time,
[ Ding! You have learned about the new protagonist Mu Chen ]
The system's notification hits him, as Bai Lung glances at Beta Fang, who is kneeling and reporting the things of Mu Chen.
"So, you are saying this Mu Chen has the ability to see and hear through time and space, and is from a mysterious family?" Bai Lung asked with a cold, soul-chilling voice.
"Yes, Young Master! This humble Beta speaks nothing but truth, I dare not lie in your presence, I have known Mu Chen from the foot of mountains... He was raised by a blacksmith, but his origin seems to come from another empire," Beta Fang reported earnestly.
Snap!
A cold snap echoed through the room.
"Your order, Holy Son!"
In an instant, Bai Luo Yi appeared from the void, kneeling in front of Bai Lung.
"This guy, Mu Chen, it seems he is from a powerful background, keep an eye on him... Make sure not to reveal yourself, and don't engage in combat,"
Bai Lung being a smart villain, knows very well that such a protagonist grows with the fights, so he orders his maid not to engage in combat.
Not to mention, A seer, who has the ability to see and hear through, time and space... There might be a possibility, that he may even be peeking at them, knowing that Bai Lung would be the trouble in the future.
Bai Lung's eyes turned cold, his finger drummed the throne he was sitting on, while he looked at the system shop.
After purchasing Dargon Roar at 50,000 points, he currently has 44,000 points, and thanks to today's daily log-in, he managed to get a powerful celestial flying boat.
