Fan Sheng wakes up in the wooden hut feeling dizzy.
"Where am I?"
"Didn't I just die of starvation in the border land after being exiled?"
He looks around to realize the place.
"What?"
"I was reborn on the day I reached the exiled village"
He feels frustrated " Oh god!! Why did you make me reborn after being exiled" He slams his head against the ground in frustration.
"If I am reborn before committing that mistake, I could have changed my destiny" he feels regretful of what he has done before he was exiled.
The sound of a box opening suddenly caught his attention.
[A screen suddenly popped in front of him and a mystery box opened]
[Congratulations to host for entering into the Contract Cultivation System]
"What?"
[System binding in progress]

"But how should I complete these tasks?"
[Ability: The host can see the aura of other people]
"That's Great, At least i have some useful skills"
"Now, let go and search for people with some real Aura"
Fan Sheng comes out of the abandoned hut onto the streets.
His once beautiful robe now became rags but his appearance unchanged.
Soon a Old man approaches him "Young Master Sheng, you are here"
Fan Sheng recognizes the old man instantly.
He is the cunning old man Si, who robbed me of my wealth and the money my parents has sent me to keep me safe in exile.
He already stole the money my parents sent me and now wants to rob me.
"I won't let you go this easily in this life"
"Young Master Sheng, What are you thinking?"
"Nothing, I couldn't recognize you. Who are you?"
"Ahh, I am the Servant Master Fan and Madam Fan sent to keep you safe in your exile"
As he responded he could see the Aura level of the old man which is "-30".
"What Aura level -ve?"
"System, how is this possible?"
[Yes, Aura can be positive(+ve) and negative(-ve)]
[The people with +ve Aura will help you in your journey if you bond with them and the -ve Aura will bring you to your doom]
"Ohh that means the people with -ve aura will bring me closer to my doom" he asks the system by asking his question in his mind.
[That's correct]
"Young Master Fan, where are you looking?"
"Ohh.. Nothing, I thought my parents didn't want me anymore. It's great that they still care about me"
"Let's go to the house your parents bought for you"
"Yes, please lead the way"
They reach the house which Fan family arranged for Fan Sheng, but it is currently occupied by the Si Family.
"Young Master, My family doesn't have a place to live. I hope you don't mind sharing your home with us" the old man plays a victim card in front of Fan Sheng but this time he knows his true intentions.
"In my last life, I let you stay here and eventually you robbed me and throwed me out of my house"
"I was starving for days and begged on streets, yet you walked over me like i am nothing"
"All you want is my fortune and I won't let you have it anymore" past memories run in his mind as his inner thoughts went awry.
"Sure, Why not?" He accepted his proposal but this time he is fully aware of his enemies intentions.
"This time i will take back everything that belongs to me" Fan Sheng is determined to take his rightful things.
Just then the Old Si's youngest granddaughter Si Yu Ning arrived.
"She is as beautiful as she was before" he admired her beauty.
And suddenly he could see something above her head.
"What? Aura level- 12" He exclaimed and everyone looked at him as if he was paranoid.
"Master Sheng, is there something wrong?" her gentle voice and elegant appearance blinded his eyes as he froze.
Si Yu Ning is an 18 year old maiden and the youngest grandchild among the four grandchildren of Old Si.
"She is an exceptional beauty" Her seductive appearance caught his attention.
[They don't say you are a play boy unnecessarily]
"Oh ok, i want to gain her aura"
"Will she qualify as our target to gain Cultivation?"
[Yes]
"I don't know if she is involved in the betrayal in my past life, but this time i will make her my personal maid and gain her Aura" He fixed his first target.
"Nothing, Please lead the way" He politely replies hiding his true intentions.
"Yes, please follow me" she leads the way to his room.
"This is the only vacant room left for now, we will arrange you room shortly" she shows him the smallest room in the house.
"This is the same room I have been given in my last life before i was thrown out"
"I won't let the fate repeat itself"
He then leans over Si Yaning against the door.
His gaze is fixed on her eyes "My dear Lady, do you mind sending me a pair of new clothes?"
"Mine were dirty and i want to take a bath"
His cool gaze made her heart skip its beat "He is so handsome even after tuning into this mess" she thinks to herself.
She nods in acceptance and leaves the room feeling blushed.
She returns back with the clothes and Fan Sheng is taking a bath in the bath tub.
"My Dear Lady, can you pass me the robe?" His deep voice made her follow him.
As she opened the curtains she was mesmerised by his body and couldn't help but stare at him.
"Do you want to touch it?" His words made her skin turn red.
She wanted to escape but she had already fallen into his seduction trap. He pulled her into the bath tub and she has fallen not just into the bath tub but into him.
