Di Jiu wrapped up the stone securely and hung it close to his body. Then, he proceeded to tidy up the aircraft.

The aircraft was not able to restart, so Di Jiu found a backpack and packed some useful items that did not occupy much space.

Then, he sealed the aircraft shut and collected some thorny vines to cover it. He didnt know if he would return to the aircraft in the future, but he had spent a big fortune on it and had designed some essential parts of it himself.

After Di Jiu had dealt with the aircraft, he looked around for a route out of there. He noticed a man lying sideways a short distance away. From the back, it looked like the person was male. He had initially thought that this was an uninhabited place, so he got quite a shock when he saw that person lying there.

The mans attire looked strange. Di Jiu had never seen anything like it before. There was a big blue backpack near the man, and in his hand was a herb that looked like a flower.

As he approached the man carefully, Di Jiu was certain that he was dead. When he turned the man over and saw his face, he unconsciously dropped his bag. Am I actually dead? he muttered.

A few moments later, Di Jiu jolted out of his daze. Although he was certain that he was not dead, the dead mans resemblance to him was uncanny. No, resemblance was actually an understatement. The man looked exactly like him.

Di Jiu bent down. He was planning on laying the man flat on the ground, but when his hands touched the mans body, the grayish stone hanging over his chest seemed to heat up. A strange feeling arose in him. Di Jiu suddenly realized that the man was his previous incarnation.

He was even able to capture some of the mans memories through his contact with him. He could now recall faint memories of his previous incarnation.

Di Jiu took out the cloth-wrapped stone hanging around his neck and examined it again. After he had passed through the rift, he had materialized at a place where his previous incarnation had died. By touching his previous incarnations body, he was able to recall some of his memories. This was definitely not a coincidence. He suspected that the reason he could see his previous incarnation was the stone.

Two to three minutes later, Di Jiu put the stone away. He had been through a lot in a short period of time. His clan had been exterminated, he had seen his own dead body, and he had obtained a strange grayish stone. He had also flown through a mysterious rift in the sky and reached an unknown place

What could be sadder and more ridiculous than what he had been through? After experiencing all these things, he was no longer the same Di Jiu who had obsessed over Zhen Man.

Di Jiu let out a long sigh and opened the big blue backpack.

There were some clean clothes, a few tools, several food rations, some water, a map, and a compass inside. There was also a wallet, several books, and a brown booklet.

When he flicked open the wallet, he found several Huaxia notes. He had never seen this currency before, but he knew what it was when he saw it. He could recognize the characters on the note. It seemed that he had indeed found some of the memories of his previous incarnation.

Besides the Huaxia notes, there were also several cards, a photograph, a key and a house rental receipt in the wallet. The cards were bank cards, but Di Jiu could not remember the password no matter how hard he tried.

There was also an ID with the name Di Zimo.

When he took a look at the photograph, he saw a couple on it. On the left was his previous incarnation, Di Zimo. On the right was an extremely attractive, beautiful woman. The photo had been ripped in half and stuck back together with clear tape.

Di Jiu thought that the lady in the photograph was as pretty as Zhen Man. However, he was not able to recall the woman from his previous incarnations memories.

Di Jiu placed the photograph back in the wallet. From the looks of it, his previous life had been much better than his current one. At least, hed had the company of a pretty lady then. In this life, he had been born into the Di Clan in the Ji Nation, but had not been able to win Zhen Mans heart even with his fathers help.

Di Jiu put the wallet in his pocket. He didnt feel embarrassed about keeping it, especially now that he knew that it had belonged to his previous incarnation.

When Di Jiu opened the brown booklet, he immediately saw the words divorce certificate in it.

Di Jiu ruffled his hair. It seemed like he had been unlucky in love during both his previous and current incarnation. He sighed and packed everything into his backpack.

After ensuring that everything was in place, he proceeded to find a good location and dig a pit. He still had to bury the body of his previous incarnation.

As he was moving the body into the pit, Di Jiu found the fatal wound. A sharp rock about half a foot in size had pierced Di Zimo through the waist. However, Di Zimo had also suffered multiple fractures. As he looked at the cliff ahead, Di Jiu guessed that the fractures were likely a result of Di Zimo rolling down the cliff.

Burying his own body sounded absurd, but doing it was actually dismal.

In the Ji Nation, people talked about previous incarnations as a way to give an individual hope. Di Jiu couldnt believe this was actually happening to him.

He took one set of clothes with him and buried the rest of the clothes, the cell phone, and the large backpack in the pit.

Di Jiu took hold of the flower that his previous incarnation had been holding firmly even to his death. He decided that it would be best to leave the flower there.

However, when he picked it up, his expression immediately became odd. He knew that this flower was called the Red Xue Flower.

The Red Xue Flower was considered a priceless treasure in the Ji Nation. If Wu Mingzhu the daughter of Wu Bahu, who was the Ji Nations kinghad the Red Xue Flower, her eyesight would have been cured. There would not have been a need to dig his sisters eyes out to replace hers.

As he gripped the Red Xue Flower in his hand, Di Jiu fell in a daze for a few minutes. He eventually put the flower away in his backpack.

After experiencing the pain of having his entire clan killed, Di Jiu was no longer as naive as he used to be. He was certain that the extermination of his entire clan had not been caused by his fathers harsh words to Wu Bahu.

The king might love Wu Mingzhu, but there was another reason behind his decision to dig Di Dis eyes out. He wanted to enrage Di Shan so that he would give him a reason to wipe out the entire Di Clan.

In that case, there had to be many unanswered questions about the deaths of Di Jius five elder brothers during their service to the nation. There was a high possibility that the old bastard had been jealous of the Di Clans control of 70% of the Ji Nations military force and had machinated to have his five elder brothers killed.

Wu Bahu was really wicked. If he had the opportunity to return to the Yalun Continent, Di Jiu would have to eradicate the Wu Clan. Otherwise, he would be letting down the exterminated Di Clan.

There was something amiss, though. Qu Xiaoshu had mentioned that no one had tried to defend his father when the old bastard had announced that he wanted him dead. How was it possible that no one would defend his father, given his standing? So what if he had scolded Wu Bahu? How could Wu Bahu dare touch his father? His father was a Martial Grandmaster with the entire Ji Nations military under his control. Based on his fathers personality, it seemed impossible that he would allow himself to be arrested out of blind devotion to the king.

Unless

Di Jiu shuddered at the thought. This would only be possible if someone had controlled everyone who was on good terms with his father. Then, that person might have stopped his father and his allies from taking action and been unafraid of his fathers power.

Was Wu Bahu capable of that? The only person with that ability was a Martial Emperor. Were even Martial Emperors that powerful, though?

This also meant that Wu Bahu would not be his only enemy. There had to be an existence even more formidable than him. Di Jiu took a deep breath. He was determined to get revenge if he was able to return, even if his enemy was the entire Lu Yuan Empire.
