The street was bustling. Lin Yuan stood in the prisoner carriage, with disheveled hair and lifeless eyes. The hook made of refined steel pierced his collarbone, and the bloodstains on his pale prisoner outfit were the result of punishment.
“Smack!”
A rotten egg hit Lin Yuan’s head.
His eyes shifted slightly, landing on a familiar face in the crowd.
It was his former neighbor, who used to borrow money and food from Lin Yuan when times were tough. But he never repaid the debts even after Lin Yuan moved away.
“Old Li, I heard you used to be neighbors with Lin Zei?”
“Hmph, don’t mention it! Blame myself for being blind, I used to pity him and even gave him food, but it was like feeding a stray dog!”
The man with a grim expression was full of anger, as if it were true.
As if he had forgotten that since Lin Yuan joined the Demon Suppression Bureau, he had been proudly proclaiming his past neighbor relationship with Lin Yuan.
In the midst of the conversation.
Another rotten egg was thrown with force.
Lin Yuan’s lips twitched as he slowly withdrew his gaze.
With his cultivation level, even with his collarbone locked, he could accurately hear the whispers of the crowd in the noisy environment.
It was not surprising at all.
Since being falsely accused, during this period, Lin Yuan had seen all kinds of worldly affairs.
What he once thought were enemies now believed in his innocence.
Those who used to flatter him now tried to bring him down.
Human hearts are nothing if not complex.
As they paraded through the streets, they arrived at the market square.
“Lin Yuan!
“You conspired with demons, secretly harmed superiors, and murdered innocents, a crime that cannot be forgiven! You should have been executed along with your nine clans, but thanks to the Demon Suppression Bureau Leader Yan’s intercession, you were only sentenced to clan extermination!
“Now that death is upon you, do you have any last words!?”
A cold voice tinged with sarcasm echoed from the execution platform.
Lin Yuan calmly raised his head and glanced at his former subordinate, now the executioner, with a sudden cold laugh.
“I have been in the Demon Suppression Bureau for ten years. I have slain over a hundred ghosts and countless demons!
“I have ventured into demon caves alone and fought hordes of demons, even battled the Mountain Lord under the moonlight to save a waste… If it weren’t for me, that scoundrel, could your head still be attached to your neck?
“Utter cowards like you!
“Do you have the face to execute me?”
The bustling crowd gradually quieted down, leaving only the faint echoes of Lin Yuan’s indifferent voice.
On the execution platform.
A middle-aged man in his thirties stood with his hands behind his back. At the sound of Lin Yuan’s voice, his two small mustaches trembled, and a sinister look flickered in his triangular eyes.
His name was Huang Lang, and with his sly and despicable appearance, he earned the nickname Yellow Weasel.
“Ah, now that you mention it, I almost forgot.”
“In the past, that tiger demon had entered the third realm, how could you, a mere second realm blood exchange warrior, have forced it to retreat? Now looking back, most likely you conspired with the demons back then and staged a good show!”
Huang Lang spoke with a sneer.
“You’re just delusional!”
Lin Yuan chuckled and said no more. With his wife and younger sister having already taken their lives to avoid humiliation, he had no more attachments.
Although it was said that his whole family would be executed, only Lin Yuan remained.
To die alone in eternal hardship!
“Your words are of no use!”
Huang Lang’s gaze grew dark, knowing that verbal sparring would not end well, he no longer spoke. “The hour has arrived, behead him!”
As the words fell.
A scheming smile crept across his face once again.
His lips moved slightly as he formed words, which entered Lin Yuan’s ears soundlessly:
“Lin Yuan, I know you have always looked down on me, but so what? You are about to die soon, but this ‘waste’ like me is still living well!
I, the “waste,” am still alive!
“I’m not afraid to tell you.”
“The one who wanted you dead is the one from the imperial capital, because you offended her in the past, right?
“As for me, I just contributed a little effort…”
So it was her!
The decapitation blade fell.
The last thought flashed through Lin Yuan’s mind, then his consciousness plunged into darkness.
…
“Brother…”
A gentle call floated by his ear.
“Brother, wake up quickly…”
The voice carried a hint of crying, and Lin Yuan abruptly opened his eyes, a petite face coming into view, tears in big watery eyes.
“Xiao Yu?”
Lin Yuan blurted out, “Where is your sister-in-law?”
Still a bit sluggish in thought, he instinctively thought he was in the underworld.
“Sister-in-law?”
Seeing Lin Yuan wake up, Lin Xianyu let out a sigh of relief, but was left dumbfounded by his question.
She gently touched Lin Yuan’s forehead, worrisomely saying:
“Brother, are you, are you confused? Where did I get a sister-in-law? Should I call the doctor to come and take a look…”
Her small hand carried a warm sensation.
Lin Yuan was stunned.
The girl in front of him still had the appearance of a thirteen-year-old, yet to exhibit the stunning beauty of future years, bearing a hint of greenness and tenderness.
Through those bright big eyes, Lin Yuan clearly saw the handsome face of a young man.
The young man’s head was wrapped in white gauze, his face pale, obviously recently injured.
In a flash.
Locked memories flooded into Lin Yuan’s mind like a tide.
Almost simultaneously.
Words floated into view before his eyes.
【Simulated lifespan ending, settling…】
【In this lifetime simulation, you killed 109 monsters, exterminated 157 demons, and obtained the titles “Ghost Scourge” and “Demon Hunter”】
【Evaluation: Good】
【Converted simulated lifespan “15 years” acquired】
【Your beginner’s task is completed, the life simulator is officially activated】
Staring at the light screen in front of him.
Lin Yuan was puzzled for a moment, his face finally showing a slow smile.
So that’s it.
He was reborn at sixteen…
No.
To be precise.
As the life simulation ended, Lin Yuan returned to the moment he received the cheat!
It was on this day.
To protect his sister, who had attracted the attention of a few thugs, the sixteen-year-old Lin Yuan wielded a kitchen knife and fought desperately, scaring those bastards away temporarily.
But he also took a heavy blow to the head.
For better or worse.
It was this blow that awakened Lin Yuan’s past wisdom, while also granting him the life simulator!
“So this was my original life trajectory…”
Raising his hand to his neck, Lin Yuan’s eyes were filled with a cold intent.
Scenes flashed through his mind like a revolving lantern, freezing on the face of Huang Lang with a cunning smile.
They said it was a simulation, but it was no different from experiencing a real life.
In other words.
Without the simulator, his destiny would have been unjustly cut short!
Releasing a sigh.
Lin Yuan suppressed his jumbled thoughts, and with a single thought, the words before him suddenly distorted, forming a whole new interface.
