The Glory After Rebirth [重生之尊荣]

Chapter 1- 3

Chapter 1: He Crawled Back

The putrefactive odor of dead bodies made one sick with nausea. The flies and maggots were all over the pit. At the bottom of the pit, there was a man, sitting on a pile of rotting corpses, covered in blood and with strangely bent legs. He was completely incapable of moving.

The nails of his hands were broken, and the blood mixed with the mud from the wall of the pit, making them more like the hands of a fiend.

His long hair was soiled and knotted, and his forehead was covered by the fringe of his brow. But these could not hide the sad and painful eyes, which were brighter than any star in the sky. These bright eyes burned with the flames of anguish and despair, and the blood gushed from them.

"Ha-ha-ha"

"Look at his eyes. Ouch, I'm scared!"

"But you are such a rubbish who are doomed to die, and dare to look at me with such eyes. Bah!"

Above the pit came the harsh mockery and the indifferent laughter of those inhuman people with twisted nature liked a devil.

The person under the pit stared at them as if he were going to carve their faces in his mind and turn to ghost to seek revenge.

He grinned and looked at the people above the pit.

"What are you laughing at?"

"That look is disgusting. Kill him!"

That smile stopped the laughter of the men, and they began to look frightened, to hide their fear in anger, and to lift up the stones and smash them down.

When the stones were down, the loud thud had come. It sounded like a watermelon had been broken, echoing dully in the deep hole. This thud tore into those peoples' ears, and chilled them out in a cold sweat.

The flies at the bottom of the pit whirled suddenly and swarmed to the corpse, whose voice had died, and whose head had been broken. However, his eyes were still wide open with a creepy grin at the corner of his mouth.

"Shit! Tough luck! Let's get the hell out of here and report on our finished mission."

"Pooh, pooh! I'll have to let my woman prepare bath water for me to wash away the bad luck. "

"Ha ha ha.... "

The evil spirits circling over the pit went away, but the sun did not shine into the bottom of the pit, and the darkness grew cold.

If there were ghosts in the world, the man at the bottom of the pit would be the most terrible and demanding ghost, that, no doubt, would haunt all his enemies.

Then a dark-green jade pendant suddenly slipped out from the clothes of the corpse. It had absorbed the blood of its master and turned bloody red as if a revenge-storm had been brewing to claim lives.

"Grandpa! Second uncle!"

"Don't die!"

"We don't collude with bandits! This has nothing to do with our Ling family!"

"I'm Ling Zhang, upright and righteous. I'm not such one of those villains!"

"Your demons are just trying to take over my Ling family's property. You set us up and mutilated and killed dozens of my family, and I'll crawl back to take revenge!"

"Ah, ah, ah... My leg! My leg!"

"Ridiculous! What marshal fiancé! Don't you know how influential the Imperial Yuwen family is! You even want to combine with this great family by marriage!"
