Lu Cang suddenly remembered a novel he'd read called The Kind Death God.
The book ended with the protagonist suddenly awakening the memories and power of his past life, then becoming invincible.
When Lu Cang had read that part,
he'd thought only one thing: Damn it, did all that cultivation before mean nothing? The ending is that he awakens his memories and becomes invincible?
It had felt completely absurd.
But now, if he were offered the same opportunity...

It made no sense. He had no idea why this was happening, but soon Lu Cang suddenly remembered a theory he'd once had.
A theory
