Qing Yuan carried Shen Xi Meng on his back all the way to the bamboo house. He placed Shen Xi Meng on the bed gently before stripping Shen Xi Meng naked without feeling embarrassed.

Throwing away the wet clothes on the side, Qing Yuan grab a set of new clean clothes and puts them on Shen Xi Meng.

When he was done, Qing Yuan also took off his wet clothes. He then puts a pure white silky robe on before looking back at Shen Xi Meng.

Climbing onto the bed, Qing Yuan lays down next to Shen Xi Meng and faces Shen Xi Meng's way.

He pinches Shen Xi Meng's nose gently. A warm smile appears on his face. He then stopped pinching Shen Xi Meng's nose and instead, cupped Shen Xi Meng's cheek with his hand.

"Your body is still as cold as ever..."

Qing Yuan retracted his hand and only stares at Shen Xi Meng.

Muttering lowly under his breath, "For you to choose father as master this life... You still have memories of your past life, right?"

Qing Yuan closes his eyes. It wouldn't be a surprise if Shen Xi Meng is reborn. Another person that Qing Yuan expects to also reborn is...

Hui Jianyu.

And the last person to be reborn was Qing Yuan himself. Totaling up to three people to have a rebirth in this world alone.

That day in Qing Yuan's past life, after Shen Xi Meng died, it was his idea to revive Shen Xi Meng using the help of Hui Jianyu. But, the two of them never expected that instead of reviving Shen Xi Meng from the dead, all three of them would experience a rebirth.

At the very least, this rebirth was better. They'll be able to prepare for future events.

Not before long, Qing Yuan fell asleep next to Shen Xi Meng.

A dream of the past. Qing Yuan's POV.

Qing Yuan looks at the dead body in the ground. The owner of the dead body was none other than Zhi Qiang.

"Ahem."

Lightly coughing, Qing Yuan took all of Zhi Qiang's possessions. "Sorry, bro. I don't know who killed you but, I will be borrowing your identity to do something."

Qing Yuan was even nice enough to dig a hole to bury Zhi Qiang's body in the ground. Before burying Zhi Qiang's corpse, Qing Yuan used an unknown technique to get all of Zhi Qiang's memories. When Qing Yuan was done, he easily changed his appearance to look identical to that of Zhi Qiang's.

Zhi Qiang was killed in the mountains secretly, away from town. The identity of his assassinators is unknown.

Qing Yuan went back to where Zhi Qiang lives and arrived in the front of the Zhi household gate. When he looks at the few people near the front gate, he realized that 4 of them were cultivators from Tian Shan Sect. Among one of the four was Shen Xi Meng.

"Young master." Zhi Qiang's personal servant went up to Qing Yuan from inside the gate.

Qing Yuan asked as he pretends to act astonished, "What's going on? Why are people from Tian Shan Sect here?"

"This..." The servant was just about to reply when Shen Xi Meng led the group to Qing Yuan.

Shen Xi Meng and the other cupped their fists at Qing Yuan as Shen Xi Meng said in a distant tone, "Young master Zhi. We'll be intruding. We're only here to complete a mission."

Qing Yuan's lips curved upwards, "Not at all. Disciples from Tian Shan Sect are always welcome. Please."

Qing Yuan invited Shen Xi Meng and the others to come in. They directly went to the guest hall and Master Zhi was already there, waiting for them.

Qing Yuan didn't enter. Instead, he went to the big garden that was full of cherry blossom trees that were already blooming with flowers since it's spring.

As Qing Yuan sat down near a stone table, he held a cup of wine with one hand as he enjoys the scenery. The branches of the cherry blossom trees were swaying back and forth slightly as if greeting Qing Yuan. It's flowers and petals falling to the ground slowly.

"Hi." With a warm smile, Qing Yuan greeted the person in front of him.

Shen Xi Meng didn't smile back. His face is always cold and distant. "Who are you?"

"Zhi Qiang." Qing Yuan lied without blinking an eye.

"Really?" Shen Xi Meng narrowed his eyes. "Why do I find your aura to be so familiar?"

"Pfft hahaha." Qing Yuan laughed out as he had his fingers touch his lower lips and chin, seemingly trying to make the action of one who is pondering. "Young master Shen. I've never met you before. Today's the first time."

Qing Yuan didn't lie this time. He really never met Shen Xi Meng before. However, the aura that Shen Xi Meng has really made him curious. It was because that aura coming from Shen Xi Meng feels really familiar.

Through the corner of his eyes, Qing Yuan felt that somebody the dead Zhi Qiang knew, came. Thinking for a second, Qing Yuan stood up from his seat. He was a lot taller than Shen Xi Meng when he took a few steps forward to be in front of Shen Xi Meng.

Leaning forward and whispering to Shen Xi Meng, Qing Yuan said, "Young master Shen, please play along with me."

"What?" Shen Xi Meng looks at Qing Yuan in confusion.

"Mmh!" Shen Xi Meng widened his eyes.

Qing Yuan had grabbed onto Shen Xi Meng's chin with his fingers and kissed Shen Xi Meng in the mouth!

Qing Yuan could feel Shen Xi Meng's struggle. As Shen Xi Meng wanted to push Qing Yuan away, Qing Yuan grabbed onto Shen Xi Meng's hand and his hold on Shen Xi Meng tightened as he continues pressing his lips against Shen Xi Meng's.

Through the corner of his eyes, not too far away behind Shen Xi Meng, Qing Yuan saw a beautiful woman dropping a basket filled with snacks inside. The snacks fell out of the basket as the woman covers her mouth as tears stream down her delicate face. She couldn't stand it anymore and ran away.

Seeing that, Qing Yuan finally let Shen Xi Meng go as he licks his lips while playfully saying with a cheerful smile, "Sweet."

"Ah!" Qing Yuan suddenly felt somebody kick his butt. He directly fell down from the bed from the impact.

He rubs his butt cheeks as he looks up at the boy who was still sleeping soundly as if nothing had happened.

Qing Yuan's mouth twitched. "Did I just got kicked out of my own bed?"
