This body's original owner died with a similar fate to Xuanyuan. The boy was fourteen years old and also didn't have a name. Since he was young, he had suffered through a great deal of bullying, but he struggled to survive on his own. The rusty dagger came into his possession through a lucky accident. Although it looked dull and useless, it was incredibly sharp and could cut through other metals. It seemed like the dagger was imbued with a magical power.
The forest was called the Beastly Forest. Inside the forest was a great deal of extremely dangerous magical beasts. The boy had only dared to hunt the beasts with lower magical abilities who roamed the edges of the forest. He would take the opportunity to ambush the beasts when they ventured out of the forest to eat from the mass grave.
However, a few days ago, he managed to kill a magic tiger with the help of the two wolves Guxing and Guyue, but Guyue was severely injured by the tiger during the fight. The young boy panicked. In order to save Guyue, he harvested the tiger to take it to the city to exchange it for medicine that could save Guyue. When he cut apart the tiger, he also found an elixir inside the tiger’s body.
Elixirs were extremely rare and precious. Sometimes you might not find a single elixir after slaughtering a hundred beasts. This elixir was an unexpected windfall.
In his bliss, he left Guyue under Guxing's care and went to Moonwaste City to exchange the elixir for medicine. What he did not expect was that the trace of the tiger's Qi remained inside the elixir and it attracted the attention of the young master of the Yue Family, Yue Jue. The elixir was the highest quality of elixir and Yue Jue wanted it. So he ordered his servant to give a beating to the young boy, using the excuse that the boy had purposely damaged his carriage. The boy was beaten within an inch of his life and his elixir was taken by Yue Jue. His injured body was then thrown into the mass grave.
"How dare you lowly commoner, damage my precious carriage. Beat him, but spare his life. Throw him into the mass grave and let the beasts of the forest decide his fate. That's the only way for him to compensate my anger."
Thanks to Guxing guarding his body, the boy was not eaten by the beats inside the forest. However, without proper medical care, he eventually succumbed to his injuries. But the loyal Guxing would not leave the boy's side even after death.
Knowing all of this, Xuanyuan could not help but give a bitter laugh. What was justice? Where was the law? How could this Yue Jue be so cruel? Xuanyuan's heart filled with fury and he screamed with all his might.
"We are both lonely and unfortunate souls. Now that I have your body, I am you and you are me. I now live in this unknown world and there's no way for me to return. Yue Jue will not get away with what he did to us. One day, I will be like Xuanyuan the Yellow Emperor. I shall conquer the world and soak the earth with the blood of dragons. In the name of Xuanyuan, I am going to destroy all those that stand against me!"
To Xuanyuan's misfortune, the earth beneath his feet began to shake.
Bang! Bang! Bang...
Xuanyuan turned his head and saw a magic bear that was three metres tall was charging in his direction. It’s terrifying mouth was displaying its razor sharp teeth and its mouth was open, ready to bite!
Xuanyuan did not know what to do. A shiver ran down his spine and his brain froze, he was unable to react.
