"At this moment, the original owner has three major regrets: Su Qing'er, the later Spring and Autumn Academy, and the interests of the Han people as a whole, that is, the Han people will never be enslaved. Only by resolving these three major regrets will the Divine Eye of Destiny, the Scripture of Calamity, and the original owner's vast memories of the future all belong to me."
"The third regret is that the idea of Han people never being enslaved is too far-fetched. Even the Black Lotus Prince did not invade this world until twenty years later."
"Moreover, the first cycle of reincarnation is about to begin in three days. If we seize the opportunity, with these eyes and this technique, it is quite possible to obtain a great opportunity. At that time, resolving the third regret will be very simple."
"As for the second regret, that is the Spring and Autumn Academy. This academy was founded by the great Confucian scholar Zheng Xuan. Before his death, with his reputation, there would be no problems. Even in the previous life, it was established during a chaotic period and only perished after Zheng Xuan's death. Therefore, it is still a long way off."
"Next up is the most recent and easiest regret to resolve: Su Qing'er."
After thinking it over, Lin Yang opened his eyes and sat up abruptly. However, he moved too much and started coughing.
Cough cough cough...
Looking at Lin Yang who had woken up, Su Qing'er said with a mixture of joy and sadness, "Brother Peng, you're finally awake."
In the past few days, first Lin's parents died one after another, and then Lin Yang inexplicably fell ill. To save Lin Yang, Su Qing'er even agreed to sell herself as a concubine. Moreover, she would become the concubine of the second young master of the Wang family!
Everyone in the surrounding villages knows that the second young master of the Wang family is a notorious playboy who started frequenting brothels at the age of twelve. What kind of good person could he be?
Thinking about this, Lin Yang felt a pang of resentment towards his predecessor. Such a fine cabbage, yet it was snatched away by a pig. Fortunately, none of that has happened yet.
Seeing Su Qing'er's pale face, Lin Yang comforted her, "It's alright, everything will be alright."
"Yes, everything will be alright. I'll go prepare chicken soup for the young master." After saying that, as if she had thought of something, Su Qing'er's face suddenly turned pale, and she looked very desperate.
Lin Yang, who possessed some memories of the future, knew, of course, what a look of despair it was.
Originally, Su Qing'er had resolved to commit suicide at any time if Lin Yang didn't wake up. But if Lin Yang was alright and healthy, they could elope.
But the worst-case scenario was this: Lin Yang had just woken up, and his body was in extremely poor condition. If they eloped, Lin Yang, in his health, would surely die! To save Lin Yang, the girl knew exactly what she had to do in this situation.
In this way, despair becomes inevitable!
Looking at the girl's lonely yet determined figure, Lin Yang made a decision in his heart.
"How could such a good girl have such a tragic end?"
Without hesitation, Lin Yang immediately began to analyze the specific situation.
"The Wang family is nothing more than small-time landlords in the countryside. To call them bumpkins is an insult to bumpkins."
"The strongest member of the family, Wang Hua, is the eldest son of Master Wang. His current cultivation level is at the peak of the Acquired Realm, which is equivalent to a peak first-order cultivator in the universe."
"With such cultivation, he would be nothing more than cannon fodder in the chaotic world of the future. In the entire universe, he wouldn't even qualify as cannon fodder. But at this moment, he is the strongest person in the entire Great Wind Village."
"Now, he is the head of the township patrol station, with a full thirty patrol inspectors under his command. In the entire Dafeng Township, no one can rival him."
"Master Wang's second son, Wang Kun, is the one who wants to marry Su Qing'er as a concubine in three days. It seems like a mutually agreeable transaction: he pays for my medical treatment, and then Su Qing'er marries him. But in reality, the original owner's illness was a conspiracy from beginning to end. And the target of the conspiracy is Su Qing'er."
"Master Wang's third daughter is also the reason why the Wang family was able to prosper. This person..."
With Su Qing'er's careful service, Lin Yang finally finished a large bowl of chicken soup. Afterwards, his overall spirits were much better than before.
Seeing Su Qing'er's haggard appearance, Lin Yang felt it was necessary to say or do something.
"Qing'er, don't worry about the Wang family's second young master. I'll handle everything. If things get bad, we can just run away. The world is vast; can the Wang family keep chasing us forever?"
Seeing Lin Yang's weak body, Su Qing'er was initially overjoyed, but then said with concern, "But young master, your health..."
"It's nothing serious. I'm coughing up blood non-stop, sweating profusely, and my philtrum is turning pale—these are signs of poisoning. However, I had a dream last night about my Lin family ancestor. He told me that all I need to do is take three qian of strychnine from outside the door, add one liter of water, and simmer it over low heat for an hour to detoxify," Lin Yang said with a smile.
In this world where Taoist magic manifests, ancestral dreams are a real phenomenon. Stories often unfold where a powerful family is taken advantage of by an enemy, but a direct descendant of the family escapes beforehand thanks to a dream from their ancestor, ultimately turning the tables and rebuilding the family.
Therefore, it's understandable that Lin Yang did many strange things under the guise of an ancestor's dream. After all, the Lin family was almost wiped out at that time, so it was perfectly normal for an ancestor to suddenly appear in a dream.
"Strychnine? Isn't that poison?"
"Fighting poison with poison, after all, it's been half a month since I was poisoned. Conventional treatments would take too long. So, we have no choice but to use this quick-acting and effective strychnine," Lin Yang quickly explained. Otherwise, the little girl might think he was suicidal and trying to commit suicide by poisoning himself.
"Really? Thank goodness! I'll go right now, young master." Su Qing'er was overjoyed and smiled broadly, looking incredibly beautiful. Then, she rushed out.
Seeing Su Qing'er's joyful expression, Lin Yang smiled as well. This is mine, and no one can take it away! As for the Wang family, they're nothing but trash. In three days, I'll make sure they're ruined and killed!

Chapter 2: This is what a man should do
Cough cough cough, cough cough...
With a cough, Lin Yang coughed up blood again. However, this time the blood was black.
Seeing this, Lin Yang couldn't help but feel happy: "Good, now it's all vomiting up blood clots, which is a sign that it's almost healed."
"Yes, yes, young master is indeed blessed with good fortune, he's finally alright." Su Qing'er said happily upon seeing this.
After all, Lin Yang's health was quite good before this. In addition, he had already taken the antidote, and most of the poison had been eliminated. All that was left was a long period of rest to completely expel the remaining poison.
Therefore, Lin Yang was no longer in mortal danger, although his body was relatively weak. This meant that even if he couldn't win a fight, escaping wouldn't be a problem.
Now that the poison has been neutralized, it's time to counterattack. At this point, there are still three days, no, two and a half days, before Wang Kun arrives.
"Cultivating immortality is definitely out of the question in such a short time. Martial arts won't be very effective either. There simply aren't enough resources to pursue the path of a physical god. It seems I can only rely on my old skills."
In this world, there are roughly four major paths of cultivation: the Path of Immortality, the Path of Literature, the Path of Martial Arts, and the Path of Physical Body. Each path, when followed to its end, leads to the sixth rank.
Among them, the Immortal Path is the most demanding in terms of aptitude, making it a truly prestigious and desirable profession.
One needs to cultivate spiritual power through a series of methods such as visualization, mental focus, and meditation. After that, one can cultivate the Yin Spirit, Yang Spirit, and Primordial Spirit.
