Taeyang felt the tremors the battle made, though he could see nothing. The dust and the aftermath of the battle blocked his sight, normally he should have been affected by the aftermath but deacon Liu managed to protect him.Taeyang - Is this the strength of a Core formation realm master? In awe of what he felt, Taeyang could only gulp and hoped deacon Liu came out victorious. He knew what ending he would have if it happened otherwise, after all he was just at Qi refinement stage. Only a bit better than a mortal man, he was nothing to cultivator masters. Deacon Liu - Do you intend to remain there forever? Taeyang heard deacon Liu voice from amidst the dust. The voice had anger mixed in it, Taeyang didn’t need a second to get up. He struggled to his feet and faced the direction with the least amount of dust. The vibrations made him stumble but he managed to remain on his feet.Deacon Liu - Ragna take the boy and leave. Protect him no matter what. A ferocious roar deafened Taeyang’s

Taeyang felt a sturdy hand grab his neck from behind. In the next moment his face smashed the ground. The hand raised him up like a little child and its owner walked out of the hut. ??? - You are lucky we are short of workers, I, Wu Chen would have killed you instantly. Taeyang - Allow me to explain…Wu Chen - If you open that mouth of yours, I will kill you. Confused, Taeyang tried to explain but Wu Chen did not let him. Rather Wu Chen flaunted his strength and swung Taeyang’s body about as he walked. Taeyang felt powerless and weak in Wu Chen’s hand.“What realm is he at? Mid-tier, top-tier, peak?” Taeyang thought. He could tell Wu Chen was at the foundation establishment realm but he couldn’t determine what tier he was on. Wu Chen - We are all working hard to get as much resources as we need to survive the western cold wind and you dare to slack off. I would take you to the deep regions and work you to your breaking point.Taeyang - Senior, please listen…Wu Chen - You court de

“A white ceiling, I guess I died. How unlucky.”After waking up to a white ceiling, Taeyang acknowledged his death. It had been expected, he didn’t possess the strength required to resist. He let out a sigh and closed his eyes. Though he resented his death, he couldn’t blame anyone but his own luck. Taeyang - I wonder how I’ll find Su Yan. Right, I should prepare myself to face her.??? - Who is Su Yan? Taeyang opened his eyes again this time a little girl with long black hair stared down at him. Her voice sounded familiar and her hair fell over her shoulders and unto his face. Like him she had blue colored eyes. Taeyang - Ghostie?He made a guess and the little girl frowned. She seemed displeased at him. However, she forced a smile and said. “Yes but I don’t like that name, call me something else.” Taeyang - Huh? You died too?She laughed at him and shifted away. Taeyang sat up. He found her on her knees beside him. She had a white and black colored dress on. Taeyang agreed in hi

Yinyue - I see light at the end of this tunnel.Taeyang - Be careful, we don’t know what’s out there. Yinyue - Okay. After several hours, the duo finally made it out of the mine. They stood at the exit (entrance) of the tunnel and received the greetings of the sky. It greeted them with heavy snowfall. They found four huts just outside the tunnel and beyond the huts stood a forest of trees with snow as leaves. ??? - Who goes there? A crude voice sounded beside them. They turned and found an old man seated on the ground. If he had not spoken they would not have noticed him. ??? - Outsiders!Another voice came from their front. Dozens of people stepped out of the hut, and each of them bared hostility towards them. Each clad in thick clothing made from white animal fur and possessed at least one weapon. The men had a black cross on their right cheek and the women had a crescent moon on their left cheek. Taeyang grabbed Yinyue by the hand, and pulled her behind him. Instinctively, h

The morning came in a flash, and a knock on the door interrupted Taeyang. Yinyue opened her eyes as soon as the knock sounded. Her eyes were clear as if she had not just woken up.“Excuse me sir and ma. This is Gu Yan, the chieftain is here to see you,” a voice sounded from behind the door.Yinyue got up, her sudden movements surprised Taeyang, who didn’t know she had woken up. She stretched her body; the bones in her arms, and back cracked. Taeyang - We’ll be there in a minute. Taeyang replied Gu Yan, while he watched Yinyue stretched. When she found him looking, she flashed him a smile.Yinyue - Good morning!Taeyang - Good morning, did you sleep well. Yinyue nodded. Although she had been on guard, she did sleep well. She didn’t let Taeyang know of the killing intent she sensed last night because it had not been directed to them. And because she didn’t want to worry him.Taeyang - Let’s go. She nodded, and the duo made their way out of the room. With her yellow-colored eyes and
