Killing Cockroaches In Xianxia For Self-Preservation

(Midnight, Long Tian's Mansion)

Long Tian can be seen sleeping peacefully in his king sized ultra soft bed, he is dressed in a white Robe and his sleeping face is no less handsome than when he is awake.

However he suddenly starts sweats profusely, and his breathing rate becomes unnatural and fast paced.

Soon afterwards, Long Tian's body jolts into an upward position and a confused and wary expression appears on his immaculate face as he looks around his own room.

(Long Tian POV)

Where... am I?

A luxurious bedroom?

I then start thinking about how I, The God Emperor Of The Nine Heavens, arrived here.

As if on cue an agonising pain strikes my head. Memories appear of 'Long Tian'.

Well... The previous Long Tian or you could say, current me?

Anyways, as I skim through the memories of this 'Me', I realise that he is the exact same as me in my previous life*.

Same face, same talents and same name.

However there is one difference, this is in the far future from my past life's times.

And it seems that i have also lost a large number of my 'Past Life' memories, as there are many gaps in my knowledge from reviewing my immensely long previous life.

How peculiar; maybe soul damage or a side affect when travelling through the river of time?

Anyways, as a mighty God Emperor, I will definitely recover them once I rise in the future.

However to do that, I must focus on the immediate future.

Hmmm,

My current foundation, although not perfect, is optimal for this youth tournament and the only one I should look out for is a girl named Song Ju.

I also should look into Long Xue's and That Maid's Physique, as they seem very peculiar. Even someone like me can't instantly figure them out!

They must definitely be extraordinary.

And that sneaky brat, Bu Cai...

This individual is very suspicious and he is quite a treacherous even though he is young.

He tricked the immature me to make him a promise of not targeting him or his relatives by acting humble.

He then completely brutalised his enemy in his first fight after the elimination round to prove his strength and also to differentiate himself to the representatives from the crowd of 'Young Geniuses'.

He then coerced the old me and his companions to go against their natural instincts and become friendly with him.

However all that is negligible to the most recent and unfathomable thing he has done most recently...

He scammed the old me out of an incredibly useful sage herb, the Three Revolutions True Grass!

Putting aside how he could identify such an ancient and valuable herb.

He actually has the AUDACITY to steal something from ME.

As someone who ruled the mighty Immortal Realm with an iron fist and obliterated deities and demons alike, whilst also acquiring the most beautiful fairies. How could I allow a mere greenhorn to steal from the great me?

HAHAHAHA.

On my name of the God Emperor Of the Nine Heavens, Long Tian.

I will make you suffer for this!

...You only have your misfortune and dog eyes to blame for not seeing Mt.Tai...

(Arena)

Arriving by myself, as both Long Xue and Yue Mei are resting, I take a look around and am surprised to see someone even earlier than me.

The girl in question instantly made me open my eyes wide and I couldn't help but feel something that i had not felt in a what has felt like eternity.

The feeling that I could only wholeheartedly devote to one woman in my previous life.

...Love.

The person who reminded me of this was named Lin Hua.

When I first saw her in my previous life I was just about to start my cultivation journey, like now.

She was someone of an incredible background, immense beauty and heaven defying talents. She was like me.

As soon as I first saw her, I was captivated.

It first started off as a slight interest.

However it soon developed into an intense obsession which had accompanied me throughout my whole life.

Even when I had many gorgeous wives and children, I still couldn't help but have her image in the back of my mind.

When I had first chased her, she always rejected me or ignored me. However after decades of devotion and persistence she gave me a chance.

Defeat her and I can have her.

My cultivation had never been faster. I became a cultivation maniac who lived and breathed expensive herbs and comprehending the Dao.

But It wasn't enough.

After a short but intense battle, she bested me without much effort.

And afterwards I couldn't ever get her again as I had made an oath to not pester her again if i had lost.

And this was quite possibly one of -If not the biggest- regrets in my life.

Even once I had gotten to the strongest possible level I could.

she had already became someone above my pinnacle and had countless legendary rumors about her mighty feats.

HAHAHAHA, BUT I HAVE A CHANCE NOW!

A chance to make up for this regret as she is the exact same person as this Song Ju!

Although i had no definitive proof, my instincts that have been honed throughout countless hundreds of thousands of years are telling me.

But now my intentions are not as pure as they are back then...

This is due to me also needing to conquer her, to overcome my Heart Devil that came from being brutally rejected and defeated by her.

I, The God Emperor, will definitely rise to providence and get everything I want in this life!

(Back To The Present)

(Bu Cai POV)

=======================================

{Analyse}

[Name: Long Tian ]

[Title: Universe No.1's Cockroach, God Emperor Of The Immortal Realm]

[Age: 8 (483,008 with Fragmented Memories)]

[Cultivation: Mortal ]

[Skills: (Sword Arts- Exquisite), (Martial Arts: Grandmaster), (Footwork- Grandmaster), (Battle Sense-Master), (Arts-Master), (Bed Skills-Master)... ]

[Inherent Talent: Indomitable Will, Peerless Sword Talent]

[Inherent Quality: Fortuned One (S-Rank)]

[Background Story]

New-

Originally a descendant of a prestigious ancient cultivation Clan, He possessed immense talents and an incredibly devoted Dao heart.

He would eventually become someone who conquered Thousands of Beauties from various realms through his charm and strength.

Although he had cultivated to the Point of near invincibility, had all the riches one could think of, had Huge numbers of wives and concubines, as well as an unshakable prestige and reputation, he still wasn't satisfied.

He always had an intense obsession for an incredibly talented woman named Lin Hua which was never recuperated.

This lead birth to a heart demon that halted his progress in cultivation and prevented his ascension to the next realm.

As Someone who had a desire for the Dao more than anything, realising he couldn't go further, made him resort to a huge sacrifice to get past this.

He researched the Dao of time very deeply and with the sliver of passive help from the God-Slaying Blade, he had been able to come up with a way to traverse time to overcome this.

However an error had occurred, and an altered timeline had been made in the far future which lead him to become The Current Long Tian.

By now being able to restart his path with experience, he had been able to reach the very pinnacle of the Dao and get everything he wanted.

End Point: Eternal Lord Of Primordial Chaos

This early awakening was brought about due to intervening in the original plot.

To combat this external influence, the plot has changed Long Tian by allowing him to awaken his past life partially earlier.

Host Does Not Have Enough Misfortune To Repel The Plot's Intervention.

[Importance in Plot: Is The Protagonist]

================================================

...

I'M SO FUCKED!

Everything was going swell with my numerous and detailed plans to deal with this usual Xianxia protagonist scrub who rises and gains experience as the plot progresses, as well as being able to refine my foundation through exploiting the cockroach.

However I was wrong.

My plans and composure have now been sent to the void, where Mr. Lord Of Fancy Words will find them in the future whilst getting everything else he could very want in life.

And the only reason for all my plans going to shit is because of this particular plot change.

Let me explain:

If this change was just about anything other than a 'Reincarnation of [Insert Cool Xianxia bullshit]', then my plans would have been somewhat plausible as Long Tian will still have some inexperience (My Only Advantage over him).

However now that that this flaw is also sorted out for him, all of those years of thinking can go down the drain and rot there for eternity.

Seems like the plot was sick of my exploitation of children...

*Sigh*

There is only one option left for me to even have a chance; The only weakness this Cockroach bastard has; and the one thing plot can't mess with as shown from Long Tian's previous incarnation.

Lin Hua, Or Should I say,

...Song Ju.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Author's Notes:

I won't allow Bu Cai to have an easy time against someone who is an S-Rank like Long Tian hence I have to make some difficulties.

I have also now made a true resentment between the hunter and cockroach. One side is resentful out of necessity, whereas the other because of pride.

I hope you have enjoyed this chapter and the sudden plot twist.

And thanks for reading!
