St.Thomas Hospital, New York City
The Intensive Care Unit.
"Ugh, this is a hospital, you know."
A curvaceous and enchanting woman is pinned to the bed by a tall man looming before her, her alluring complaint filled with flirtation.
"So what if it's a hospital? I asked Carter to watch the door, no one will come in."
The tall man grins wickedly, his hands wandering up and down the woman's body, causing her much pleasure.
"Stop it, Warren Chad is still in the bed. What will we do if he wakes up?"
The enchanting woman glances at the pale-faced young man lying on the hospital bed and pushes the tall man away.
"He won't wake up, and even if he does, what about it?" He's already aware of our relationship."
With great strength, the tall man pulls the enchanting woman back to him, a vicious look in his eyes.
"This jerk dared to hit me, so I'm going to take you right in front of him. Are you afraid he'll see?"
"A pauper, why do I have to fear him? I just think you're despicable."
"What can I say? Women don't love men who are too nice."
"Humph..."
After some hesitation, the woman finally decides that this situation is too thrilling to resist, she stops protesting.
Boom!
As the two engaged in a passionate kiss, a thunderous crackle resonated, and a eerie crack appeared in the sky above the hospital.
Time and space shifted, a phantom figure descended from the heavens, merging with Warren on the hospital bed.
Warren slowly opened his eyes, turning his head to see the startled young man and woman separated by the lightning strike.
"Luna! Ethan!"
Warren's pupils slightly narrowed, memories flooding back, remembering the day he first arrived in New York City.
It was on this day, Warren discovered that his girlfriend Luna, whom he had saved with his bone marrow and been dating for a year in college, had betrayed him, colluding with his rich roommate, Ethan.
Warren saw for his own eyes, Luna, who came to pick him up at the car station, stepping out from the passenger seat of a Porsche, and before leaving, she warmly embraced and kissed Ethan in the co-passenger seat.
Rage surged in Warren's heart, and he stormed up to punch Ethan, only to be beaten up by his gang.
During the fight, Ethan intentionally pushed Warren onto the road, resulting in him being hit by a truck.
Although Warren's life was saved but he ended up with a disability that left him unable to use his legs.
After this incident, Warren's father traveled across the country to New York City, several times he went to Ethan's workplace, trying to seek compensation for Warren. However, Ethan had power and influence and arranged for Warren's father to be eliminated and his body dumped in the wilderness.
In the end, when Warren learned about the grim news of his father, he gave up all hope of living, sinking into depression ,degenerated in health and ended up in a comatose state.
But!
Even though Warren was in a coma, his soul traversed to the Mystical world. Through three thousand years of training, he became a high-level cultivator, renamed himself as Chad Azrael, and was universally respected in the mystical world as Azrael the Immortal!
Despite ten thousand years passing by in the mystical realm, Warren was unable to forget the humiliations of his past, the brutal death of his father, and the root cause of all tragedies in his previous life!
Disturbed by numerous inner demons, he was supposed to fall during the ascension tribulation. Unexpectedly, heaven gave him another opportunity, allowing him to return to the day when his previous life took a drastic turn!
"Warren, why are you awake?"
On the other side, Luna, seeing Warren awake, asked surprisingly.
"Sorry, I've spoiled your fun." Warren's tone was very calm.
To Warren, who had been resurrected from his past life, his once deeply adored Luna, is now nothing.
For this pair of adulterers, their only fate is to be buried in his fury!
Looking at Warren, Luna suddenly felt a sense of unfamiliarity as if he had transformed.
"He woke up, so what? He's a cripple anyway, he can only watch."
Ethan without too much thought, stretched his hand into Luna's skirt without hesitation, causing her to slightly moan.
"You're right, he's now disabled in both legs, can't even stand up, let alone stop us."
"Let him watch the live broadcast!"
"Who says I can't stand up?"
A cold smile spread across Warren's face as he lay on the sickbed.
Although his mystical power was annihilated with his resurrection, his soul's power was far stronger than ordinary people.
Upon deep reflection, he found a mysterious book and a wisp of glowing emerald energy still floating in his mind.
The "codex of Eternity”!
And the Codex of Eternity emanates an untamed power!
The “Codex of Eternity” has an unknown origin. It was Warren's reliance in becoming the immortal supreme that, even as he reached the mystical enlightenment, he did not fully understand it.
With the “Codex of Eternity”, he was destined to return to the pinnacle of the mystical world. He would transcend the tribulations and reach the other shore!
The glowing emerald energy, on the other hand, was the ethereal untamed power fostered by the “Codex of Eternity” – one of the primal energies of the universe!
Using this mystical power, the entirely crippled legs could be healed in the span of a breath.
Under the nourishment of the Codex of Eternity untamed mystical power, Warren's fractures combined, injuries healed, and legs were restored to their original state.
"Warren, are you still trying to scare me? I've asked the doctor before I came, you suffered comminuted fractures in your legs, you will never stand up again in your life,” sneered Ethan, staring at Warren.
"Is that so?"
The very next moment, Warren removed his blanket and stood before his eyes.
"You!…“ Ethan was startled.
"Warren, how are you all right?!” Luna was also wide-eyed.
Warren ignored the astonishment of the two people, picked up the cigarette box on the bedside table, and shook out a Marlboro cigarette.
He lit it slowly, his expression somewhat indiscernible.
Upon seeing Warren's provocative look, Ethan hardened his face, "Warren, you couldn't possibly have bribed the doctor to lie to gain sympathy from Luna, could you?"
Back then, when Warren was pushed onto the road and hit by a car, they straight away ran off.
Later, they found out that his leg was broken.
Looking at it now, it seems very likely to have been a scam.
"Just a used shoe, why the hell would I need her sympathy?" Warren took a puff of his cigarette, nonchalantly.
"Yo-" Ethan was about to flare up, but Luna stopped him, and yelled at Warren, "Warren, I admit I've done some inappropriate things, but at this point, I hope you know better!"
"Inappropriate? Just inappropriate?" Warren stared at Luna, "I was the one who saved your life, you know."
"Warren, rescuing me was solely your own decision. I did not ask for it!"
Luna retorted passionately.
"And don't think because you saved my life, that I should be grateful to you. Even if you hadn’t been there, with Ethan's power and money, a few more months could have easily found me a suitable spinal cord donor!"
“Ha, given your condition back then, without my immediate intervention, ten more days and you probably wouldn't be around."
Warren shook his head and scoffed coldly.
"So what, I'm perfectly alive and well now!" Luna replied heartlessly.
"Exactly!" Ethan quickly supplemented, "Even if your leg isn't broken, what does it matter? In the end, you're nothing but a commonplace second-generation wealthy, and only I can provide the life that Luna desires. You simply don't deserve her!"
"So you betrayed me simply because I'm poor?" Warren exhaled a plume of smoke towards Luna.
"What else would it be? If it weren't for the spine that I need from you, I wouldn't spare you a glance!" Luna gave a cold sidelong glance, "Warren, you and I are simply people from two different worlds!"
"Indeed, we are people from two different worlds. its good that you understand that."
Warren's laughter carried an ambiguous undertone.
Luna was nothing but a mere insect, while he, Warren, was the unsurpassed Immortal being honored above all beings! They were truly people from two different worlds!
With the fall of Warren's words, he flicked his cigarette butt towards Luna's enchantingly oval face without extinguishing it.
The lit end flew at an extremely high speed and hit Luna's tender skin , instantly leaving a glowing red burn.
"Ah!" Luna screamed as she covered her face.
"Warren, you're asking for death!" Furious, Ethan raised his fist, intending to strike at Warren's head.
But Warren moved faster, his right hand deftly struck Ethan in the abdomen.
Thud!
After a deep thud, Ethan clutched his stomach and knelt on the ground. His face was flushed red, and he was gasping for breath.
"Carter! Get in here now!", he slurred his shout with spit drooling out of his mouth's corner.
Bang!
The door of the ward was forced open the next moment, and five young men rushed in.
The leader of the gang was Carter, ruggedly charming, standing tall at a whopping 1.9 meters.
An active basketball team player and a loyal flunkey of Ethan.
In the past life, Warren was brutally beaten, suppressed by Carter right outside the bus station.
But in this current life, the outcome will be different, indeed!
