Rebirth as God

Chapter 2 Xuanxing Awakens

In front of a dilapidated hut sat a six or seven-year-old boy dressed in shabby clothes. The boy, however, was frowning deeply, seemingly pondering some profound problem.
The boy's name was Xiao Xing, but the other children in the village called him "little bastard." Although Xiao Xing was very unwilling to accept this, he was weak and could not change the fact.Xiao Xing's parents died not long after he was born, leaving him to survive alone. He lived by the pity of the villagers who occasionally gave him some food.Xiao Xing was indeed thinking about something that had troubled him for years. Since he became aware of things, he often dreamed of certain scenes: people in his dreams could ride on swords or even fly through the air, and they could destroy a town in an instant.He often dreamed of being besieged by a dozen people and felt as if he were the one being attacked. Xiao Xing was very puzzled by these strange dreams. Were the scenes in his dreams real? But now, Xiao Xing had no time to continue thinking."Little bastard, I didn't see you outside today. Oh... so you're hiding in your shabby hut." An eleven or twelve-year-old boy walked in, followed by four or five boys about Xiao Xing's age. The boy wrinkled his nose as he spoke, clearly very uncomfortable with the condition of Xiao Xing's home.Xiao Xing had long been accustomed to this kind of bullying. He was often beaten and scolded by them.The older boy was the son of the village chief, named Lei Hu. He often bullied other children in the village because of his father's status. But those children had parents to report to the village chief, making Lei Hu hold back a bit.However, Xiao Xing was an orphan with no relatives, making him Lei Hu's best target for venting. Although the villagers sympathized with Xiao Xing, they were too lazy to intervene in children's affairs.Seeing the situation today, Xiao Xing knew he was in for some suffering again. But he did not bow down to Lei Hu and the others. Xiao Xing had his dignity, and he wanted to defend it! He stared at Lei Hu and snorted."Damn you, little bastard. You always look at your master like this. Brothers, teach him a lesson!" Lei Hu was very uncomfortable with Xiao Xing's gaze.The boys rushed forward to beat Xiao Xing, who struggled to fight back. But he was outnumbered and was eventually pinned to the ground, punched and kicked. Lei Hu joined in the kicking."You little bastard! If you had just taken the beating quietly, we wouldn't have to go to all this trouble!" Lei Hu said while kicking Xiao Xing.Xiao Xing, pinned to the ground, wanted to get up and punch Lei Hu in the face. Lei Hu had bullied him countless times, causing all his injuries. But Lei Hu always stayed back during the fights, making it impossible for Xiao Xing to hit him.Xiao Xing had long hated Lei Hu. Today, his long-suppressed anger finally erupted!Seeing an opportunity, Xiao Xing suddenly got up and charged at Lei Hu like a fierce wolf, landing a heavy punch on Lei Hu's face. Lei Hu clutched his face in pain, trembling and squatting down. Xiao Xing ignored this, needing to vent his years of accumulated resentment! He punched and kicked Lei Hu fiercely."Stop him... now..." Lei Hu struggled to say.The other boys were stunned. Lei Hu had never lost a fight before, but now he was being beaten by the despised Xiao Xing! They only reacted when they heard Lei Hu's cry for help.They rushed to pin Xiao Xing down again, punching and kicking him. Lei Hu stood up, his face covered in blood, his nose still bleeding. He walked quickly to Xiao Xing."You little bastard! How dare you hit your master! Today, I'm not holding back. Brothers, hit him hard! I'll take responsibility!" Lei Hu said fiercely, then stomped hard on Xiao Xing's head. Lei Hu was extremely frustrated, having always been the bully, but now being injured by this little bastard!The other boys, afraid of Lei Hu's wrath, also hit Xiao Xing hard.When Lei Hu's foot stomped on Xiao Xing's head, Xiao Xing felt an unbearable pain. He couldn't feel the pain in his body anymore; his head felt like it was about to explode. Curled up on the ground, he let Lei Hu and the others beat him. Lei Hu stomped on Xiao Xing's head twice more, causing him to pass out.After a while, Lei Hu finally felt his anger subside and told everyone to stop. He didn't want to cause a death, just a lesson. After glancing at the unconscious Xiao Xing, he led them out of the shabby yard.Xiao Xing remained unconscious, occasionally frowning and trembling.Xiao Xing felt his head was about to burst. The dream fragments reappeared in his mind, with more and more scenes flooding in, until he heard a "bang..." and lost consciousness completely.It wasn't until noon the next day that Xiao Xing moved again, sitting up with difficulty and sorting through his thoughts. He sat there until nightfall, finally revealing a happy smile.Now, Xiao Xing understood everything about his past life from his memories.Xiao Xing was actually the reincarnation of Xuan Xing (from now on, Xiao Xing would be called Xuan Xing). When Xuan Xing self-destructed his nascent soul, he didn't disappear completely.After self-destructing, Xuan Xing suddenly found that the mysterious bead in his dantian came out and absorbed his soul, and then he knew nothing more.
