reincarnated as a baby my cry is a dragon roar

The Northern Azure Province was located in the northernmost part of the Profound Sky Continent. In the huge Northern Azure Province, there were a total of seven counties. To the south of Qi Mountain County was Su County. The area it covered was not inferior to Qi Mountain County.
If the Lin family was the head of the Qi Mountain County, then the Wang family was undoubtedly the overlord of the Su County. No one knew when the Lin family and the Wang family had started to oppose each other. However, everyone in the entire Northern Azure Province knew one thing: the Lin family and the Su family could not be at the same place.
Regardless of whether it was a banquet or a mystic realm, as long as the people of the Wang and Lin families met, it would be a bloody storm. No matter when, as long as the two families met, they would fight each other until their eyes turned red.
…
The long river flowed through the surrounding mountains. A chain of cities existed along the mountain range. If one looked down from the sky, they could see thousands of lights. Su County was always so prosperous.
At the core of Su County, there was an ancient city called Peace City.
The black city walls had a heavy sense of history. It was said that Peace City had existed since ancient times, and this was also the Wang family’s headquarters.
Peace City was covered in profound and complicated runes. Generations of the Wang family had relied on Peace City to resist the most ferocious beast tide.
On the highest building in Peace City, a middle-aged man in a long robe was sitting opposite an old man.
In the sky, the moon and stars were sparse. Above the pavilion, clouds and mist surrounded it. This looked like an immortal realm, and the air was slightly cold.
The old man used the black pieces while the middle-aged man used the white ones. The two of them had relaxed expressions as they slowly placed their pieces. Clearly, they were satisfied with the current situation.
“Has the news been confirmed?” The old man placed a piece down and asked slowly.
The middle-aged man’s face was somewhat similar to his. Both of them had long and narrow eyes and thin bodies. There was an inexplicable chill on their bodies, and their pupils were suffused with a cold light resembling poisonous snakes that made others shiver.
The moves the two of them played were exactly the same. Both of them hid in the calmness and waited for the fatal blow at any time.
“Ancestor, it has been confirmed that the news released by the Lin family was false. The Lin family’s ancestor did not take that step at all,” the middle-aged man, who was also the current head of the Wang family, replied respectfully.
When the old man heard this, a smile gradually appeared on his face, “Great! A mere Lin family actually dares to think of taking that step? They’re simply dreaming!”
“I heard he announced that he can break through in three years,” the man replied.
“Three years? Heh, how absurd!” The Wang Family’s ancestor sneered. He picked up the black piece with two fingers, and a cold light flowed in his aged eyes, filled with disbelief and disdain.
“When the news first spread, I should have known. It has only been a hundred years since the last breakthrough. Even I would need hundreds of years to take the next step.”
“Three years? How absurd! Don’t make me laugh!”
“This Lin family’s ancestor will definitely not be able to achieve anything in three years!”
The old man made a judgment. His tone was sonorous, and the aura on his body suddenly changed. A black piece landed, and several pieces connected. It actually took a huge area of the board before the white pieces could do anything!
“Ancestor is wise.” The man sighed.
The old man glanced at him and casually waved his hand, causing a small area of the white pieces to transform into ashes that scattered on the chessboard. “Don’t speak useless words here. Is there any news from the Lin family?”
The middle-aged man’s expression turned serious, “Ancestor, although the Lin family’s ancestor has not broken through, those phenomena are real. A monstrous prodigy has appeared in the Lin family.”
Monstrous prodigy? The old man placed another stone down and narrowed his eyes, “Don’t tell me that the purple qi and the Dao sounds appeared because of this Lin family’s prodigy.”
The middle-aged man’s expression stiffened. He braced himself and said, “Ancestor, those fluctuations are indeed because of the appearance of the Lin family’s prodigy…”
The middle-aged man took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, “But ancestor, this Lin family’s prodigy is nothing to fear! He can’t be compared to the genius of our clan!”
“My son, Wang Tengfei, has the providence of an emperor!”
“When he was born, tens of thousands of Immortal Cranes came to the dynasty. He is the reincarnation of an ancient immortal!!”
“Compared to my son, the people of the Lin family are nothing!”
In the loft, a cold wind blew. There was a long silence.
“Our family’s genius, Wang Tengfei, indeed has the bearing of an emperor. As the reincarnation of an Immortal, when he grows up, no one in this world can compare to him.”
After a long time, the old man slowly spoke with a calm tone, “But the fact that the Lin family has a prodigy, why didn’t you know about it long ago?”
The middle-aged man was shocked and hurriedly raised his head to defend himself. In the next moment, he felt as if he had suffered a heavy blow. His entire body was like a sandbag as he was directly struck by a huge force!
Crack! The bones in his entire body crackled. The middle-aged man opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of dark red blood before flying out!
Before he landed, the nine chess pieces turned into black needles that flew straight over and pierced through his limbs and lungs, nailing him to the wall of the pavilion!
“Cough!”
“Ancestor…”
The middle-aged man’s entire body was in pain, but he did not dare to say anything. After a long time, those chess pieces and his body fell to the ground.
“Thank… Thank you for sparing my life, ancestor…” The middle-aged man gasped and knelt on the ground immediately.
“Come over, the game hasn’t ended,” the old man said calmly.
“Yes.” Enduring the pain, the middle-aged man returned to the chessboard.
“What else is there?” The old man asked, as if nothing had happened earlier. He did not even look at the half-dead middle-aged man at all.
“There’s another piece of news. Lin Hao’s wife, the daughter of the Xuan family who has been pregnant for a hundred years, seems to have given birth.” The middle-aged man took a deep breath and endured the pain.
“Lin Hao’s wife?”
“Ancestor, in order to stop Lin Hao from growing stronger, we used a fatal curse on his wife.”
“This curse came from a fortuitous encounter of my son, Wang Tengfei. He found it on a tattered bronze sword. It’s a piece of bronze rust that can corrode everything. After using it, it can make a person live in utter agony, and it can make sure their fetus stays in the womb for a hundred years without being born.”
“For some reason, the baby seems to have been born.”
“But it doesn’t matter. When the baby is born, this curse will only act up faster. This curse can’t be resolved. It was not used for nothing. I think the daughter of the Xuan family is definitely dead now.”
“Lin Hao and the daughter of the Xuan family have a high status in the Lin family. Once someone dies, the Lin family will definitely reveal a flaw. Immediately, our assassins can infiltrate and find the prodigy of the Lin family…”
“We can kill him!”
The old man glanced at the middle-aged man and snorted, “At least you’re not that useless.”
The middle-aged man was trembling in fear and did not dare to reply.
In the night, the old man raised his head and looked into the distance. The waning moon released rays of cold light. The old man’s eyes flickered with an ink-black luster, like the pupils of a snake, cold and venomous.
“A prodigy that made the purple qi come from the east for 30,000 miles…”
“You will personally lead the team on this assassination.”
“Between you and the Lin family’s prodigy, only one is allowed to live.”
The middle-aged man took a deep breath and nodded.
“Yes, ancestor!”
