Chapter 1 - Chapter 1: About to Die of Starvation, the System is Here

In Taiping Dynasty,

QingCheng County, YongCheng City.

In the backyard of a small house, there was seen a pale young man lying on a recliner.

But even in this miserable state, his appearance was enough to make the heavens seem inferior.

"Sighh~, it's already been 16 years since I have been to this world." The young man groaned, thinking of the time he spent in this world.

Yes, you got it correct. He is a time traveler. And just like his past life, in this life too, his name is Lin Chen.

In his past life, while he was on earth, he was just a small pharmacy worker doing full-time job in the medical store.

At least, that was the life he wanted to remember.

But one day, while he was on his way to deliver a medicine to the customer, his bike brake failed and he struck a thick tree and was dead on the spot. Later when he opened his eyes, he found himself transported to another world.

Where there are legends of immortals roaming the world with a flying sword and mortals can practice martial arts and possess the strength to kill an elephant in one punch.

In this life, just when he was born, his father, the head of the family, and his family members were brutally exterminated by a force of unknown origin.

But he was lucky enough to escape with an old servant who was trusted by his old man; thus saving his life.

But this peace only lasted for a short period.

And another misfortune fell before him: his only hope, the old servant, passed away peacefully in front of him.

He was just eight years old at that time!

Upon this misfortune, he could only sigh and continue to live on the savings of the old servant till he turned 16, when his savings ended.

It was not that he had never sought a job or anything, but it was just that whenever he left his house to seek a job, either the wife or daughter of shopkeepers fell in love with him, turning their personal life in nothing but chaos. Which made the shopkeepers avoid him like a plague. And whenever he sought a job, he either gets turned away softly or harshly.

And it was not just that; in the past, whenever he tried to carry bags to earn money, he always gets turned away by some bulky men, who, not only judged him by his weak build but also because there were many men with better builds in line.

They didn't even give him a chance to demonstrate his skills and treated him like a frail kitten.

Thus, he came short of money despite living in such a big city as YongCheng City.

But these days of him living in YongCheng City weren't in vain as he had collected a lot of information and understood the power structure within the city very well.

Within YongCheng City, there are three gangs named, Water Dragon Gang, Beggar Gang and White Tiger Gang, respectively.

In which, the White Tiger Gang is considered the strongest with one Martial arts master realm gang leader and three Main Elders, each possessing the strength of Bone-strengthening realm, respectively.

The reason why he had such a good impression of White Tiger gang is all because of their leader, who doesn't charge any joining fees and is quite famous for his talent loving persona.

(Martial realms from low to high:- Body-refining, Blood-refining, Bone-strengthning, Martial arts master, Xiantian(Innate) realm, Grandmaster and Great Grandmaster.)

In this city, there are also two behemoth called the Liu and Wang family. In which, Wangs are the strongest.

There is a Xiantian realm master in-charge in both families and there are even rumors that there is a late-stage Xiantian realm master hidden in the Wang family.

All three gangs, White Tiger gang, Beggar gang and Water Dragon gang work under these families and help them clean up their mess and also do some dirty work for them.

And the reason why his face is pale is all because he hasn't eaten anything in these past one and a half day; he doesn't even have a penny to spend on his food.

Today, just after a brief thought, he made up his mind; join the White Tiger gang and fill his stomach.

There was also a pendant on his neck which he thought to be his golden finger. Like, grandpa inside, Inheritance Technique or family inheritance, etc.

But after using countless methods, he had come to amend that it was just some ordinary ornament and was nothing special.

But even if turns out to be a treasure, there would be a specific time for it to awaken.

[Ding, it is detected that the host is about to die of starvation. Hereby, the Eternal Cultivation Simulator is awakened to serve the host.]
