Xiao Kuangyun Reborn Chapter 1: Same Animal, Different Beast
🕑 Added 2024-05-31 22:33:59 +0000 UTC“Dad… Save… Save me… Save me… I don’t want to die… Dad… Save me… Save me!!”
Xiao Kuangyun tightly hung onto his father’s thigh, his entire body trembling. All four of his limbs had gone limb under intense fear. He had lost control of himself along with all of his pride, making a pool of his own piss beneath.
“Little brother Yun, the error of my unfilial son, indeed cannot be forgiven. This humble Xiao is extremely shameful of my incapabilities in teaching my son. However, with your current status and level, no matter how many tens of times stronger my unfilial son is, it’s impossible for him to possess even the least bit of threat to you, nor would it be possible for him to dare offend you again. If you act against my unfilial son, I’m afraid… I’m simply afraid that it might stain your status as well… If you can show mercy today, and let go of my unfilial son, my Xiao Sect will definitely deeply grateful, and will rever little brother Yun as our lord. As long as it’s little brother Yun’s instruction, my Xiao Sect will definitely use all the might within our capacity, and will definitely not hesitate to sacrifice our lives!”
“Mn… What Sect Master Xiao says seems to have a good point. If I were to kill this son of yours, not only will it stain my own hands, I will indeed gain nothing. And if I don’t kill him…” Yun Che held onto his chin, showing a thinking look.
He had remained still, blanking out as his father tried to ease Yun Che’s fury. In the end, the Xiao Sect had to cough up an astronomical sum of ten million profound coins for his life. After taking the money for sparing his life, Yun Che pushed out his palm and struck Xiao Kuangyun.
He was sent flying into the sky, spitting out his own blood midair and landing in an unconscious state.
“Yun’er!”
His father, Xiao Juetian, charged over to his son, who had been covered entirely in blood with a great number of broken bones. Meanwhile, Yun Che hopped onto his Snow Phoenix and spoke with a tone of arrogance.
“Don’t worry, he won’t die. He simply has to spend his days on the bed in the next few months. Also, from this point onwards, he shouldn’t think of ever procreating! A dog trash like him, is unworthy of having descendants! Your Xiao Sect best not allow him to step out of the doors of Xiao Sect forever. If I were to see his face again, then you people can simply take out more money to redeem his life!!”
…
Xiao Kuangyun woke from his unconscious state, all broken. He hung onto the hope that the doctors of the Xiao Sect and beyond could repair his broken bones, but there was only so much that they could do.
After months of endless pain, he still sat in a wheelchair. He was broken in both heart and spirit.
His cock, the weapon he once wielded to indulge in endless pleasure, was no more. Yun Che had seen to that. His wives, concubines and maids - what did they amount to now? Nothing. Everyone mocked him, and even though his own father couldn’t abandon him, he could sense his discomfort as well.
All the light in the world had faded for Xiao Kuangyun.
He rolled his wheelchair over, where his sword stood on the table. He drew it out and saw its blade glimmer. All the humility, pain, suffering… it would end right here. He would suffer it no more.
The blade trembled in his inexperienced hand.
He had not killed anything before with his own hand. The fear of death still clung to him. Even so, his hatred for the life he lived gave him the resolve to push forward.
Pierce.
He stabbed his own chest, holding onto the blade before drawing it out.
The young master watched his blood pour out like a waterfall… doing nothing to stop his premature end.
For once in all these months, he smiled.
It was the end of his suffering.
He would be free at last.

Profound Year 1997, 15th December
The fourth young master of the Xiao Sect had returned with Xiao Chengzhi, the second most talented of the Xiao Clan’s generation. The Xiao Sect’s new servant was given the lowest of accommodations and least pleasant duties - a position befitting of his standing. The youth’s excitement about the grand Xiao Sect considerably dimmed when he realised that his life of old in the Xiao Clan was more comforting.
In his view, he had returned absolutely empty-handed. Neither Xia Qingyue nor Xiao Lingxi fell into his palm.
Better yet, two of his servants died in the search of Yun Che - which he had chosen to give up on.
The first thing he did was fall into the comfort of his his most beautiful woman, who he imagined as Xia Qingyue. He tore at her clothes, pinning her down with a lustful gaze. She was a brick of mud in terms of appearance when compared to Xia Qingyue, but his lightless room made it easier to imagine otherwise.
“Harder, my love… ravage me-”
“Ah, yes… you dim-witted whore. You’re only good for one thing in this world.”
Xiao Kuangyun continued on with confidence, his lust washing away the dissatisfaction he once felt.
He kept going… until his body eventually relented, and he let his seed spill into her womb.
It was then that his expression suddenly changed.
He stood as if frozen in time.
His concubine eventually turned to see him, sitting up.
“Did something happen? Did I do something wrong, young master? I…”
As his eyes regained light, his lips slowly curled into a devious grin.
“Hahaha…”
His sudden laughter caught the concubine off-guard.
“Hahahahahahaha!”
He continued, sounding madder with each passing moment.
“Kuangyun-”
The concubine said his name in hesitation.
He stopped, glaring at her like an unwanted insect.
Slap.
The young master struck the woman, sending her right back to the bed. Xiao Kuangyun looked down on the woman, observing her features. He did not hide his disgust in the slightest.
“To think that I’d once find such a plain thing desirable.”
He turned away coldly and began dressing himself.
“What do you mean?” The woman blinked in confusion. “I am the most beautiful woman you possess; those were your own words merely months ago-”
“The words of a frog that had been stuck in a well its entire life.”
Xiao Kuangyun’s words were as cold as ice. It seemed as if he had become an entirely different person to the concubine. Even a few seconds ago, he was enjoying himself… so what could have possibly happened?
After dressing himself completely, he simply walked out.
“Butler.”
“Yes, young master?” Xiao Moshan addressed him with respect.
“Throw this woman out of the Xiao Sect; I never wish to see her again.”
“... Is this what you truly wish, Young Master? This woman… she is your concubine-”
“Not anymore.” Xiao Kuangyun shook his head. “I have no desire for her.”
As he walked off into the corridor, he dusted himself off the shame he felt.
‘Imagining such an inferior woman as Xia Qingyue rather than attaining her? How pathetic.’
He proceeded to do things that Xiao Kuangyun would’ve ordinarily done - only far more calculated. Within the space of a week, he thoroughly fucked every one of his wives and concubines, which numbered twenty-one in total. He used a dual-cultivation technique that had been developed and constantly refined over two thousand years of ravaging.
Beauties that could ruin nations, genius empresses who ruled them and mighty goddesses that could trample the world…
The Heaven Ravaging Demonic Art would teach humility and obedience to all of them, turning thousands of such brilliant women into nothing more than meek and submissive slaves that served his every need.
It was a dual-cultivation technique that stole not only the profound strength of his yin counterparts but also their beauty, talent and heart.
After a week of ploughing fields, he was disinterested in, Xiao Kuangyun’s appearance improved considerably. Compared to the most average of people, he now looked more handsome and not entirely plain. His features were sharper, and the way he carried himself… his aura… that was the greatest change of all.
As for his cultivation and overall talent, they nudged in the right direction, yet he remained at the peak of the Nascent Profound Realm.
‘Aged twenty and stuck in such a lowly realm. At this rate, not much will change.’ Xiao Kuangyun thought to himself. ‘Hmph, if only those plain women I called concubines and wives had any sort of talent to take. Alas…’
‘I shall have to look outwards.’
Xiao Kuangyun decided, leaving to look around the Xiao Sect for a new playmate. Given that he was the most spoiled of the four young masters, he could get away with many things. One thing he couldn’t do, however, was despoil any girl or woman closely related to the mighty elders of the Xiao Sect. It was not a matter his father would’ve let go of, so the Xiao Kuangyun of old would avoid it entirely.
To those more noble disciples, he looked like a poor copy of his older brothers, who were far more desirable. Plain-looking, average, talentless and with a perverted personality…
While they dreamed of his genius, super handsome three older brothers, these ladies avoided Xiao Kuangyun like the plague.
This is why Xiao Kuangyun would often go to lesser cities and towns where he could abuse his power and get his way with women who could not resist his power. Whether they were willing or not, he would have them…
…
Xiao Kuangyun walked over to the Xiao Sect’s most prestigious arena, where genius disciples would often challenge each other to duels. Today, it was the fifth young master, Xiao Kuanglin, facing off against Xiao Mei, who was the daughter of an esteemed elder. They were both in the early-middle stages of the Spirit Profound Realm and seemingly equal in strength.
Xiao Mei even managed to slash the side of his face with her spear.
Afterwards, Xiao Kuanglin’s expression changed as he slashed once and two more followed.
“Triple wind slash!”
BANG.
With two of the slashes landing cleanly, Xiao Mei was eventually overwhelmed.
“That was a fine duel, junior sister.” Xiao Kuanglin praised.
“I’m still nowhere near your martial prowess, young master.” She smiled joyfully and bowed her head slightly. “I look forward to our next spar.”
Xiao Kuanglin, his fifth and youngest brother. The one who would attend the next Blue Wind Ranking Tournament… the same one that Yun Che won.
Xiao Kuangyun temporarily lamented his older age before moving to speak with the girl. She was rather average in appearance, to the point that his women were all superior. However, her greatest asset was the talent she possessed, which was amongst the best in the Xiao Sect’s younger generation and something that his wives and concubines would only dream of possessing.
It was this talent that made her almost untouchable. Almost.
“Greetings, junior sister. You looked as impressive as ever today.”
Xiao Mei wanted to ignore him but reluctantly turned to greet the young master. She observed his improved appearance and proud stature. His eyes were clear and focused - seemingly brimming with purpose.
“Greetings, young master.” She blinked with a confused look. “I did not expect to see you here today.”
“I sought to broaden my horizons.” Xiao Kuangyun smiled, his eyes reflecting a certain charm. “The way junior sister wields her spear - truly a work of art. Each swing and stab reflects the endless hours you have spent honing those skills.”
“... Please spare me the flattery, young master. I have places to be-”
“Do you?”
He grabbed her hand as she tried to evade him, turning her to face him. He then grabbed her chin and planted a swift kiss on her lips. It dazed her temporarily, which allowed him to continue and go so far as to slip his profound-art infused tongue inside her mouth.
“Mn…”
BANG.
The moment Xiao Mei recovered, she punched him right in the gut.
“Gah…”
Xiao Kuangyun crumbled almost immediately, spitting a mouthful of blood onto the ground.
“Hmph!” Xiao Mei turned away from him. “You might be the fourth young master, but that doesn’t mean you can do anything you like. I’ll tell my father precisely what happened and make sure you get what’s coming.”
The disciples around them looked bewildered.
“Did the fourth young master just…”
“I thought he preferred women of beauty. I mean, Xiao Mei is a genius in terms of talent, but her appearance really is average….”
“Yeah, I don’t wager that kiss was very worthwhile.”
“Who knows what goes on in the young master’s perverted mind?”
“Heh…” Xiao Kuangyun chuckled, rising to his feet. After he wiped his mouth, all that remained was a devious grin. ‘All of your talent will be mine in due time.’
“Big brother, that was truly unsightly.” Xiao Kuanglin remarked, stepping behind him. “You shamed our bloodline today.”
Xiao Kuangyun looked back with an unamused expression but said no more.
“You have nothing to say?” Xiao Kuanglin frowned. “I ought to punish you myself.”
“I may have been too passionate and forgot myself.” Xiao Kuangley sighed, shaking his head. “Xiao Mei… well, I… might have fallen in love. Truly. At that moment in time, I wanted only her. She was my night sky and morning sun.”
Observing his strangely convincing act, Xiao Kuanglin shook his head and walked off.
“... You’re embarrassing.”
…
Once Xiao Mei informed her father of the matter and returned to her cultivation room, she felt a strong wave of emotions begin to flood her mind and heart. She kept thinking of that one passionate kiss, over and over again. It was her first and only…
To think that it was the worst of the five young masters, the least handsome and talented… the wastrel she looked down on. If any other one of his brothers had done it, she would have accepted it gladly, but… not him… most certainly not him.
And yet… she couldn’t forget him. He was all she could think of - that kiss, more precisely. That single kiss had grasped her heart and mind, locking both in a cage.
This matter was far too embarrassing to admit to anyone else, so she kept it to herself.
The poison only continued to spread, however… growing stronger and stronger.

“YUN’ER!”
Xiao Juetian shouted at Xiao Kuangyun, who remained completely composed.
“What did I tell you about acting in that way with prominent disciples of the Xiao Sect!?”
“Forgive me, father.” Xiao Kuangyun sincerely lowered his head. “It’s only that I fell in love with junior sister and couldn’t help myself.”
“You fall in love with a new woman every month.” Xiao Juetian rubbed his own forehead with a disapproving look. “This matter is inexcusable, I must punish you…”
“I am serious this time.” Xiao Kuangyun shook his head. “If you wish, father, I will abandon all of my wives and concubines to prove this. I will even go so far as to clean up my act and dedicate myself to the Profound Way. If only…”
“If only?”
Xiao Juetian raised an eyebrow of curiosity. His fourth son was the least impressive, certainly, but he was the one he doted on the most since he was the only one to be birthed by his official wife. If he cleaned up his act…
“You would give me your blessing and arrange a marriage with Xiao Mei.”
“Why this sudden obsession?” Xiao Juetian stroked his beard as he questioned. “Xiao Mei is talented, yes, but her appearance… it would not be wrong to say that all of your women are more beautiful.”
“There is more to this life than beauty, father. My wives and concubines are no more than plain dolls to play with - and I truly tire of them. They are far too simple. I seek a more sophisticated woman; someone truly worthy of my status. If I could have Xiao Mei, I would not want anyone else.”
“You little devil.” Xiao Juetian remarked, sighing. “If you dare to take another wife or concubine after this, you will not walk from it lightly.”
“So you agree to my proposition?”
“I shall see what Xiao Dong and his daughter think of this.”
“Very well.”
Xiao Kuangyun went on to do as he promised, cleaning house. All of his concubines and wives got thrown out of the Xiao Sect. His palace had begun to look a lot more empty, with only a couple of servants attending to it. He found the sense of peace far more inciting than the chatter of plain-looking women.
Meanwhile…
“What do you think of marrying that insolent young master?” Xiao Dong questioned his daughter, shaking his head. “Xiao Kuanglin would be a far more fitting proposal for you-”
“I… would not mind it.”
Xiao Mei’s words shocked the elder, whose eyes widened. He observed her look of embarrassment with bewilderment. She was talking down on him only a couple of days ago, calling him a piece of trash… but now she would not mind it?
“You must not make such a decision in haste.” Xiao Dong grabbed her shoulders and looked her in the eyes with a serious expression. “I will give you time to think on it.”
In the end, however, the more time passed… the more she was certain.

In only a month, Xiao Kuangyun was sitting in his bedroom with Xiao Mei packaged beautifully in her crimson-gold phoenix wedding dress. He had a taste of the Xiao Sect’s finest wine, grinning as he observed the blushing bride.
“You truly look stunning today, my dear wife.”
“Shut up.” She blushed, glancing away. “Just… stop teasing me.”
“Oh, teasing?” Xiao Kuangyun blinked with a tone of innocence. “What do you mean by that?”
“Stop playing around and just…”
“Just what?” Xiao Kuangyun’s eyes lit up.
“K-kiss me… again.”
“Come over here, then.” Xiao Kuangyun pointed to her and angled his finger all the way down to his feet. “Crawl to me, and I will indulge you.”
“I won’t.” She crossed her arms, speaking with a tone of pride. “I am your wife, not one of your toys…”
“I don’t see why you can’t be both, my sweet wife.” Xiao Kuangyun rested his head on his hand as he grinned. “Why the proud front? You know what you want. Indulge your desires; there’s no need to pretend to be someone you’re not.”
“I…”
“I’ll give you all the love you seek if you just submit yourself to me. You will forget all about Xiao Kuanglin, my useless brat of a brother, and the other men who ignore you because of your lack of beauty.”
She reluctantly got on her knees, slowly crawling over to his seat. Each of his words were like spells nudging her body forward. Eventually, she did reach his feet. His lips curled into a grin as he cupped her chin upwards to look at him.
He patted her head like a dog he was most pleased with.
“Good girl… now here’s your reward.”
He lowered himself slightly and planted a kiss on her lips.
‘Soon, Xia Qingyue, Xiao Lingxi… you two will be in the same position, begging me to ravage you.’
…
After a night of fucking Xiao Mei over and over again - gradually draining her profound strength and talent, which bolstered his own - Xiao Kuangyun laid in his bed with a look of satisfaction.
He had broken through to the True Profound Realm at last.
‘And Yun Che, to think that I’d forgotten all about you in all these years…’
He grinned, looking to the ceiling as he imagined what the future would hold.

Author’s note:
I was watching the ATG anime and honestly, Xiao Kuangyun was hilarious for like the two episodes he was around… so I decided to write this zaza in my spare time. Also, I added a fifth brother because Mars Gravity somehow slid in the third brother into the Blue Wind Ranking Tournament (who should be older than Xiao Kuangyun who is already 20 at the start).
