Lei Bin's Revenge, Lian Sheng's Obsession

The home that had always been filled with laughter and joy until he was eight years old was now as silent as a ghost town.

Lei Bin's small body was curled up in the corner of the bed, watching his father, whose eyes had lost their light.

He could no longer walk, his legs were crippled, and his body was covered in wounds. Lei Bin's father didn't understand why he had suffered such a disaster.

Lei Bin's mother looked dim and lifeless, but she was still bravely taking care of his father.

Lei Bin thought everything would pass, and things would slowly get better.

His father and mother would become like they used to be.

But everything was destroyed on the third day after Lei Bin's father returned home.

That morning, there was a thick fog, and you couldn't see clearly beyond three meters.

Lei Bin remembered it very clearly. The weather that day was very cold, chilling to the bone, so cold that the blood seemed to freeze.

His father's body was also very cold, as cold as ice, without a trace of warmth.

His mother's body was even colder, her face pale and ghostly.

Lei Bin hugged them, thinking he should warm his parents up a bit.

For three whole days, Lei Bin tried his best to warm his parents, but they remained cold, as cold as ice, gradually freezing Lei Bin's heart as well.

He was eight years old, not three.

He had also accompanied his father to funerals for elderly people in the village.

He knew what it meant, but he didn't want to believe it.

Until one evening, villagers came to his house, saw his dead father and mother, and screamed in horror...

The villagers buried Lei Bin's parents together. Lei Bin sold everything of value in the house and barely scraped together enough money for a coffin to bury them.

On the night of the funeral, the villagers discovered that Lei Bin was gone.

They all went looking for him, but couldn't find him.

Villagers were like dogs, barely surviving in this chaotic world.

After searching all night without finding him, they gave up.

No one could neglect their own lives for Lei Bin.

Lei Bin, gripping a knife, went to the landlord's house, but he was just an eight-year-old child. Revenge was nothing but a pipe dream.

He was almost beaten to death by the landlord's servants, but fortunately, King Runner passed by and saved him.

However, King Runner didn't kill the landlord's family, he just took Lei Bin away.

He trained Lei Bin, hiring assassins from Dark Stone to teach him martial arts.

Lei Bin showed extraordinary talent, and driven by hatred, he practiced martial arts extremely hard. He was like a lone wolf, running desperately in the dark night, all for the sake of the final slaughter!

When he was ten years old, Dark Stone found the landlord's family.

After Lei Bin was rescued that year, the landlord immediately sold his property and moved away.

He wasn't stupid. He knew that if Lei Bin was rescued by such a master, he would definitely come back for revenge.

The landlord wouldn't stay in the same place.

Unfortunately, the landlord would never know the terror and power of Dark Stone.

No matter where he moved, Dark Stone could find him.

That night, King Runner was right outside the landlord's house.

"Go yourself. If you succeed in your revenge, you will join Dark Stone and do as you please."

"If you fail, I will turn around and leave, and this family can live happily ever after."

Lei Bin didn't say anything. He sneaked into the landlord's house alone. Soon, screams echoed through the night sky.

Lei Bin killed the entire landlord's family, leaving only the landlord, whom he tortured to death, screaming all night, before finally dying in extreme pain.

From then on, Lei Bin became a top assassin in Dark Stone, second only to King Runner in status.

Originally, this situation would have continued until Lei Bin was killed by his target in a mission.

Until Lei Bin met that woman—Tian Qingtong. The heart that had been frozen since he was eight years old began to beat fiercely again.

So, the assassin who shouldn't have gotten married, got married.

He even had children.

Strangely, King Runner didn't stop Lei Bin, just as he had said when he let Lei Bin take revenge himself: Join Dark Stone and do as you please.

But the fate of an assassin is predetermined.

Once an assassin, always an assassin.

Assassins never have a good ending.

Lei Bin was no exception. Before he came with King Runner to find Zeng Jing, he was still preparing noodles for his wife, making them and laying them out to dry.

He had planned to cook them for his wife when he got back, but he would never return.

The revolving lantern froze on the moment Wen Qingkong's Vigorous Eagle Claw Skill tore through his chest, filled with regret and unwillingness that lingered.

With Lei Bin's power merging into his body, Wen Qingkong's expression was complex. Lei Bin's past was lamentable, but it also made him realize the cruelty of this world even more.

The oppression of the imperial court, the chivalrous heroes of the martial world, the combination of individual power and the authority of the court – the common people without martial arts or power would only suffer even more pain and misery.

Wen Qingkong carried Lei Bin's corpse down.

Then he carried the Magician Lian Sheng's corpse onto the cold slab.

After cleaning and applying makeup, Wen Qingkong was slightly surprised, only because the Magician Lian Sheng's body had many ulcers, this person was clearly not long for this world.

As usual, Wen Qingkong lit three incense sticks and began stitching.

The Magician Lian Sheng was killed by him with the Vigorous Eagle Claw Skill tearing his throat, so the stitching was relatively simple.

Soon, the stitching was finished.

The Magician Lian Sheng's revolving lantern appeared in his mind.

The Magician Lian Sheng was born into a family of magicians. His father and mother were both street performers. He studied hard since childhood and was extremely obsessed with various magic tricks, especially the legendary Immortal Rope.

He also collected clues everywhere, hoping to find a way to train in the Immortal Rope.

The Magician's obsession was met with ridicule from everyone, including his parents, who thought their son was crazy.

The Immortal Rope was just a rumor, no one had ever seen it.

No one would become obsessed with a rumor, unable to extricate themselves.

The Magician Lian Sheng ignored this, he was just pondering, pondering according to the rumors, pondering according to the clues he had collected.

He pondered while eating, pondered while drinking, pondered while traveling, and even pondered while performing.

As a result, his performances were ruined several times.

This made the Magician's father angry. He took a whip and lashed it on the Magician's body.

He believed that his son was possessed by a demon and had to be beaten hard, desperately beaten, to drive the demon away, to wake his son up, and to concentrate on performing magic tricks.

But even when being whipped, Lian Sheng was still pondering the Immortal Rope.

He was obsessed, he was fascinated, but no matter how he traveled all over the country, he never figured out how to cultivate the Immortal Rope.

This obsession was accidentally seen by King Runner, who admired the Magician's obsession, so he used Dark Stone's power to find a way to practice the Immortal Rope.

He wanted to give the Immortal Rope to the Magician Lian Sheng, but he had a request.

Lian Sheng said that any request could be agreed to.

So, King Runner gave him a packet of poison and asked him to put it in his parents' food.

Lian Sheng did not hesitate, and that night, he poisoned his parents to death.

He wanted the Immortal Rope, and for this, he would spare no expense.

Finally, the Immortal Rope was in his hands.

The Magician had a high talent. He mastered the Immortal Rope in just three days of practice and became the only person in magic to master the Immortal Rope.
