A bright imprint flew out and engraved itself on Wang Longlong's forehead, coalescing into a Law Imprint above.
A special power suddenly traversed two realms, breaking through barriers like the network of the internet world, connecting with precision.
...
Source Realm.
Nanan City, Qi Mansion.
Wang Longlong slowly awoke, scenting a strange fragrance that delighted his heart and soothed his body.
What a nice sll?
Who's burning incense?
I rember the last ti I was in my dad's car, it slt like this kind of incense.
Wang Longlong opened his eyes and looked around the room but soon, he was frozen in shock.
The room wasn't big, it was sowhat dim, with wooden furniture all of the old-fashioned type, no electric lights above his head, only a lamp burning on the table, illuminating the room.
Wang Longlong sat up in alarm.
Wasn't I sleeping at ho?
Could it be... I'm dreaming?
But this dream, it's seems so real; he could even see the oil stains on the wick, clear as day.
Could it be, I've transmigrated?
The next mont, a surge of information flooded his mind, tossing and turning like waves, and he couldn't help but recall fighting with Miao Zhe in the classroom, the nauseating feeling of being choked and shaken by him.
The original owner of the body was also called Wang Longlong, a Shadow Guard ticulously trained by the Qi Family of Nanan City.
The purpose of a Shadow Guard's life was to remove any obstacles for the Qi Family.
The Shadow Guard had climbed mountains of blades and descended into seas of fire, spilling much blood for the Qi Family.
Wang Longlong recalls the bloody scenes from his mory, as vivid as a 4D movie, and feels terrible.
He looked at his hands in horror, exclaiming:
"A pair of sinful hands!"
Wang Longlong almost threw his hands away, but unfortunately, that wasn't possible.
Wang Longlong collapsed onto the bed, "Is this a dream or is it real? I can't tell the difference!"
He was clearly just a middle school student, how could he have suddenly beco a homicidal maniac?
Moreover, the mories indicated that this murderous Shadow Guard had always been killing people abroad, so why did he end up in this body?
Wang Longlong continued to process the information flooding his brain and soon understood the reason.
As a Shadow Guard adopted by the Qi Family from a young age, after seven and a half years of training, he would beco an independent operative.
He was responsible for assassinations and gathering intelligence on the outside, and he thought that the days ahead would continue in this manner until, half a month ago, the Qi Family summoned him back, announcing he would soon be engaged in activities within Nanan City.
Along with him, other Shadow Guards were recalled.
Wang Longlong didn't know them; Shadow Guards only answered to a direct superior responsible for issuing and receiving tasks, avoiding any other interaction.
The original Shadow Guard was resting, and then, Wang Longlong's consciousness took over the body.
Wang Longlong imrsed himself in the Shadow Guard's past life, sinking deeper and deeper into it.
After a while, he began to ponder so questions:
"Shadow Guards don't get a salary, don't have days off, are on call 24 hours a day, and they're not allowed to marry, is this even legal?"
"The Qi Family bossing Shadow Guards around, treating them like servants, don't they have any human rights?"
"The Qi Family ordering Shadow Guards to kill at will, does this violate the law?"
And most importantly, what exactly are the plans for since they've summoned back this ti?
Wang Longlong's adaptability was terrifying; he couldn't tell whether this was a dream or reality, but he quickly accepted the change, and regardless, he had to survive first.
As Wang Longlong was adapting to his new identity, three knocks on the door could be heard.
Imdiately, the door swung open and a middle-aged man in a grey robe entered, his beard unkempt, with a dry pipe in his mouth, exuding an aura of weary experience.
He was Uncle Qi Lin, Wang Longlong's direct supervisor, and the person adamant about recalling Wang Longlong.
Uncle Qi Lin assessed Wang Longlong, then, with a pipe clamped between his teeth and a puff of smoke, he began:
"Longlong, you've grown up under my watch, and this ti, calling you back is also to aid in the Qi Family's significant plans."
Wang Longlong asked, "What big plans?"
He was a Shadow Guard, not of high rank, but not low either; the Qi Family was strict in hierarchy, but as a Shadow Guard raised from childhood, they were still relatively trusted.
Shadow Guards had the right to question and interject.
Uncle Qi Lin said, "I can't tell you, I've just co to inform you, from now on you're responsible for uncovering the recent movents of the Han Family in Nanan City, especially concerning the Direct Lineage of the Han Family."
"I don't care what thods you use, at the very least, hand a record book every third day."
"I know this is tough on you, so if you encounter any difficulties, just tell , whether it's silver or manpower, I'll make arrangents for you."
Uncle Qi Lin knew this task was difficult, the Han Family of Nanan City had vast influence, and spying on them ca with greater risks, not to ntion having to submit a record book every third day.
However, the Third Miss Qi had personally given these orders, and even though he had heard that the Third Miss Qi would soon be married off in an alliance, he had to obey the commands as if stepping on him were as insignificant as stepping on an ant.
So, he recalled a batch of Shadow Guards specializing in intelligence.
Wang Longlong: 'Is that it?'
Just a record book, right? How hard could that be?
If Uncle Qi Lin wasn't in front of him, Wang Longlong would have loved to shout 'Pen, please!'
He could fill a small book in an instant.
But Wang Longlong was no longer the naive youth he used to be; in exchanges with his horoom teacher, he had learned many things, like how to hide one's abilities and to complain.
Wang Longlong pondered for a mont, "Uncle Qi Lin, it's not that I can't do a good job, it's just that this matter, sigh."
Seeing that Wang Longlong's resistance wasn't that strong, Uncle Qi Lin said:
"You tell ."
"I have a detailed plan, but there's one difficulty, I need this," Wang Longlong rubbed his hands together.
