I have been a saint in the world for three thousand years

Deathly silence.

It was pitch black.

These were the only two feelings in Shen Zhi's consciousness.

He felt as if he was wrapped in warmth, with every inch of his skin bathed in the warm and gentle current, which was extremely comfortable and intoxicating.

This unprecedented experience made Shen Zhi feel extremely comfortable, and he couldn't help but want to moan out loud.

Since he could remember, Shen Zhi had never felt such deep comfort and relaxation, as if all his fatigue and worries had disappeared at this moment.

In this chaotic void, Shen Zhi's five senses were completely deprived, and he was unable to perceive anything around him.

Time and space seemed to have lost their meaning in this deep darkness.

After an unknown amount of time, a harsh mocking voice suddenly sounded deep in his consciousness.

"Ants!"

"Low class!"

"Pig and dog-like things!"

These mocking voices suddenly exploded like thunder out of the blue, waking him up from his chaos.

He tried hard to open his eyes, but found that his body seemed to be bound by invisible shackles and he could not move at all.

The mocking voices came like a tide, echoing in his ears over and over again, irritating his nerves.

Shen Zhi roared angrily, trying to suppress the voices, but to no avail.

At this moment, a terrifyingly huge fist suddenly appeared in front of Shen Zhi.

Against the backdrop of the pitch-black surroundings, the giant fist seemed to be magnified countless times, appearing even more terrifying.

It exuded a strong sense of oppression, making Shen Zhi feel like an insignificant ant.

Under the pressure of the giant fist, endless fear and a feeling of suffocation quickly spread throughout his body like a tide, engulfing him in an instant.

"what--!"

On the hospital bed, Shen Zhi suddenly opened his eyes and sat up abruptly.

The room was simply and neatly decorated, the air was filled with a faint scent of medicine, and everything seemed both strange and familiar.

After looking around at the scene, I was shocked.

"Am I not dead?"

He shook his head and was about to get out of bed when he suddenly felt a piercing pain all over his body, causing him to gasp.

"hiss--!"

Shen Zhi grimaced in pain.

He lifted the quilt and found that his hands and feet had been wrapped in gauze and wooden boards.

Just then, the door of the room was gently pushed open, and a familiar figure came in.

"Brother Yan!"

Yan Xiu placed the food box in his hand on the table and pressed it lightly with his right hand, signaling Shen Zhibie to stand up.

"Brother Yan, what's going on?"

At this moment, Shen Yi was confused.

He only remembered that he was knocked away by the young master of the He family with three palms in Yue Mansion, and then his consciousness fell into complete darkness.

"Could it be that Brother Yan saved me?"

Shen Zhi asked doubtfully.

Yan Xiu stepped forward to check his injuries but did not answer his question.

"You are seriously injured. You need to rest for a hundred days. You must not do any strenuous exercise. Otherwise, if the wound is affected, it will definitely make the injury worse."

Shen Zhidao thanked him but continued to ask questions without giving up.

Yan Xiu smiled faintly and said, "Why, do you think there is someone else who can save you?"

Shen Zhi, who was thrown into the mass grave at that time, had indeed died and had no life left.

Even if the famous doctor from Luyang Prefecture came, he would only say to prepare for the funeral.

But with Yan Xiu, no matter what kind of injury you have, even if one foot has already stepped into the underworld, he can still pull you back.

"Thank you, Brother Yan, for saving my life!"

Shen Zhi was so grateful that he burst into tears. Despite his serious injuries, he struggled to get out of bed and kowtowed on his knees to express his gratitude.

Yan Xiu stopped him and shook his head gently.

After pushing Shen Zhi back, Yan Xiu sat down beside the bed and asked.

"What happened last night? Did you offend someone you shouldn't have offended?"

When Shen Zhi heard this, the scene in Yue Mansion last night immediately emerged in his mind.

The harsh taunts from the Yong'an City dignitaries and the three fatal blows from the He family's young master are all vividly remembered.

He clenched his fists tightly, and the anger in his eyes almost burst out.

Then Shen Zhi told everything without reservation about how he accepted Tang Ling's invitation, went to Yue Mansion for a banquet and was humiliated.

"This group of people don't treat us as human beings at all. In their eyes, poor people like us are no different from pigs and dogs. They treat us like grass!"

Thinking back to the many humiliations he suffered last night, Shen Zhi gritted his teeth and was filled with resentment.

After Shen Zhi's excitement had subsided a little, Yan Xiu continued to speak.

"So, what are you going to do now?"

This sentence made Shen Zhi stunned for a moment.

When he was severely beaten by the young master of the He family, he knew that he would not live long and could only close his eyes and wait for death.

But he didn't expect that Yan Xiu actually pulled him back from the mass grave and saved himself.

Shen Zhi pondered for a moment and said two words in a serious tone.

"revenge!"

If he were to die now, then everything in the world would have nothing to do with him anymore.

But now Yan Xiu has given him another chance to survive. If he doesn't take revenge, he would be unworthy of being a man.

Who knew that Yan Xiu's next sentence would make Shen Zhi fall into silence again.

"In the eyes of those people, you are already a dead man. If you show up in front of them again, you will definitely die. By then, I will not be able to save your life."

"What's more, you have been expelled from Ba Yue Martial Arts School. You are not allowed to see the light of day, and even your path to martial arts has been cut off. How can you even talk about revenge?"

Shen Zhi lowered his head when he heard this, feeling sad, and he didn't know what was going on in his mind.

Suddenly his eyes lit up, he raised his head abruptly, and stared at Yan Xiu with burning eyes.

"Brother Yan, you have a solution, right?!"

Shen Zhiben thought that Yan Xiu was just an ordinary doctor in a clinic like everyone else.

But on second thought, Shen Zhi felt that the other party must be no simple person.

The young master of the He family is a martial artist who has reached the realm of transformation, and is also a well-known figure in Yong'an City.

The three palms he exerted with all his strength were enough to make any martial artist of the same level dare not underestimate him, let alone a martial arts beginner like Shen Zhi.

According to common sense, Shen Zhi should have been dead for sure after suffering such a serious injury and being thrown into a mass grave.

However, Yan Xiu happened to appear at a mass grave more than ten miles away from Yong'an City in the middle of the night, and brought himself back and saved his life.

No matter how Shen Zhi looked at these things, he felt that this Brother Yan in front of him could not be just an ordinary doctor in a clinic.

"Brother Yan, you must have a way, right? Please tell me!"

Yan Xiu did not answer, but stood up, walked to the table and opened the food box.

There were only two things in the lunch box.

One of them was a bowl of steaming vegetarian noodles, while the other was a grain of rice.

However, these rice grains are much larger than usual, appearing rounder, fuller, and crystal clear, as if they contain mysterious power.
