Hendrix Lane slowly opened his eyes, waking up to a blinding light. He raised his hand to shield his eyes, feeling like his whole body was about to fall apart. "Where am I?" Hendrix shook his head, trying to clear his mind. The last thing he remembered was executing the Heaven's Restoration Plan and hearing Victor Hughes's final words before losing consciousness. Everything after that was a blur. "What is this place?" Hendrix struggled to prop himself up, swaying slightly as he sat up and took in his surroundings—a lavish room that looked utterly foreign. "Time travel? What era have I ended up in?" Hendrix frowned, realizing he had arrived in an unfamiliar place he had never seen before. The room's decor seemed outdated compared to where he came from. Everything looked antique to Hendrix, nothing like his own time. After conducting a series of checks on himself, Hendrix found that apart from his frail body, there were no other issues. He realized that his frailty was due to Hendrix's previous excessive indulgence in sex, which had left his body depleted. Even with his strong will, Hendrix found it hard to accept his current state. Hendrix let out a heavy sigh, releasing a breath of stale air, and attempted to circulate his true energy. However, the moment he did, a piercing pain shot through him, turning his face ashen before darkness claimed him again. In a daze, Hendrix heard footsteps approaching. "Mr. Lane has fainted again?" "Let's go check on him!" "Serves him right for all the terrible things he's done!" "He fell off a cliff and still survived. It's true what they say. The evil enjoys life while the good suffers." Soon, a few people arrived by Hendrix's side, rummaging around his body before leaving. Lying on the soft bed, surrounded by silence, Hendrix chuckled bitterly. Who would have thought that he would one day fall so low? It seemed like he was ignored by these people, as if he were nothing more than a half-dead man in their eyes. Hendrix let out a wry smile. Given his current condition, there wasn't much difference. It was clear he needed to regain his strength quickly. With a deep breath, he endured the pain coursing through his body and forced himself to sit up again. But when he attempted to activate his past life's skill, the Ninefold Heavenly Mantra, the excruciating pain returned. This time, however, he didn't pass out. "I am an elite member of the Black Eagle Special Forces. After surviving countless trials, I refuse to believe I can't regain my power!" Hendrix's eyes were filled with determination. He repeatedly practiced the Ninefold Heavenly Mantra, enduring the relentless agony it brought. This mantra elevated him to the top of the special forces in his past life, making him exceptionally skilled in every aspect. However, even with his resilience, he couldn't help but frown. Could his injuries be this severe? At that moment, footsteps echoed from outside, catching Hendrix's attention and causing him to pause. As he paused his training, a graceful figure appeared—a woman in her mid-twenties with a curvy figure. Her eyes flashed with disdain upon seeing Hendrix sitting on the bed. "You're... awake?" The woman was taken aback, surprised to see Hendrix sitting up, given the severe injuries he had when brought in. Yet, here he was, sitting up alone within a day. "Yes." Hendrix nodded. The young lady's skin was smooth as jade, her features delicate and charming. Even after seeing countless beauties, Hendrix had to admit she was stunning. Linda Huxley noticed Hendrix staring at her. Her expression turned cold. Her eyes flickered before she spoke, "If you're fine, don't try to race others when you can't handle it." "Race?" Hendrix was puzzled by her words. What was she talking about? As the top special forces agent, there's no way he'd be racing cars. Suddenly, Hendrix shivered, his face turning paler as unfamiliar memories surged into his mind like a flood. They were memories that didn't belong to him, overwhelming his thoughts. Hendrix was left stunned, as if he were possessed. Unfamiliar memories? A strange place? A peculiar woman? Hendrix finally realized that the Heaven's Restoration Plan had succeeded. He had been reborn through soul transfer. From these foreign memories, he realized he'd traveled back hundreds of years to Chicia. How could this be possible? Hendrix stared blankly, processing the situation. According to the plan, he should have traveled back twenty years, but instead, it was off by centuries. How was he supposed to accomplish his mission now? Moreover, his body was weak. Linda's disdain grew as she observed Hendrix's confused expression. "Hendrix, I knew you'd pull through." A young man with fair features and clear eyes rushed in. From the memories, Hendrix knew the young man was his cousin, Theodore Lane, who had always been his follower, obeying his every command without complaint. Hendrix keenly noticed a flash of malice in Theodore's eyes. The original Hendrix would have missed it, but with his sharp gaze, the current Hendrix spotted it easily. "Linda, don't worry. Hendrix will be fine." Theodore turned to Linda, a hint of fervor in his eyes. Linda shot a cold glance at Theodore. "Don't call my name." Hendrix, the eldest of the Lane family in Yalington, was born into a privileged family. His father, Corey Lane, was a top government official, and his mother owned the Lane Group. Despite such a background, Hendrix, who could have been an arrogant playboy, was timid and cowardly—a disgrace from a young age. Linda, the eldest daughter of the Huxley family and Hendrix's wife, was the daughter of the Northwest Military District's commander. Her father, Leighton Huxley, and Corey were sworn brothers, arranging the marriage between Hendrix and Linda over a decade ago. Over the years, Linda became the most beautiful and successful woman in Vela City, while Hendrix remained weak and inept. Despite this, their marriage remained unchanged. A few months ago, their families arranged their marriage registration, and they settled in Vela City. "This wastrel has such a beautiful wife. It's a pity." "How can a scoundrel like him deserve such a beautiful lady? He even survived falling off a cliff." "He deserves to die." The crowd's gossip made Hendrix's face flush with embarrassment. The former Hendrix's actions were disgraceful. He wouldn't even be considered a man. Fortunately, Hendrix had a firm mind, or he might have considered ending his life.
