Throughout these reincarnations, Zhao Lang had gradually discerned a pattern.
No matter what he became or where he went, he always ended up back in Chixia Village, dying an unexpected and violent death.
And the greater his achievements, the more tragic his end would be.
He once returned to the Gu Family, eradicated all his enemies, and became the powerful Gu Family Patriarch, only to die at the hands of his most trusted subordinate on a stormy night, his limbs severed, his face unrecognizable.
He had also tried to live incognito abroad, aiming for an unremarkable life unknown to others, yet met his demise on the streets of the City of Romance.
No matter what he tried, the outcome never wavered.
By his fifth life, he had already grown weary.
Tired of this fate he could not change no matter how he struggled.
But just as he was ready to give up, he inadvertently saved a barefoot monk.
That monk immediately saw through his fate and, before leaving, imparted some words to him.
