Xi Shen was glad that she had no knowledge about his secrets but still had on a solemn expression.‘Was it because of the heavens blessings that my fate is unreadable? Or is it something else?’Dongmei spoke up and said, “Li Shen, even though I couldn’t see your future, I determined that your faith is tied with the survival of our Maple Continent. From the things I saw over the last hundred years, my heart is in turmoil at the events that are going to unfold in the future. I believe your mere existence is something that could potentially divert those disasters to a different outcome.”Xi Shen sat there listening to Dongmei, but he was confused as she was barely making any sense, ‘Survival of the Maple Continent? Disasters? Isn’t she hinting at the fact of the Maple Continent could face a disaster that could destroy it in the future? Or am I mistaking it?’Xi Shen suddenly began scratching his head as the more he think about it the more he was getting confused.‘And I can’t ask her for
Dongmei lifted up her left sleeve and saw the curse on her hand had completely overtaken her forearm. Her once black hair turned silver and the smooth jade-like skin on her hands had many wrinkles appeared on them.Beside her, the figure of an old lady in long black robes suddenly appeared.Dongmei who was sitting at the table became transparent before she dissipated into colorful blue particles before entering one of the four-star points on the old woman's forehead.The image on her forehead was in the shape of a cross, with a star at the ends of each point.The one on the left dimed considerably after the particles enter it, matching the ones on the right and bottom. This resulted in the old woman groaning and her face became deathly pale.“Was giving him that jade slip too much? If I hadn’t he wouldn’t have discovered that Soul Art until much later, it’s best if he had it early on,” said the old woman in an assured tone.However, her face showed doubt as she looked towards the sky.
As Yang Su and the rest were closely observing the Soul Art with curious eyes, meanwhile, Bai Xiaofung turned to Xi Shen who had sat next to him and in a bemoaning voice said, “Brother Shen, it’s so haaaard.” Bai Xiaofung then broke down in tears to the utter dumbfoundment of Xi Shen. Looking at his disheveled hair, ruffled close, and the dark circles under his eyes, Xi Shen gave Bai Xiaofung a strange look. While in tears, Bai Xiaofung would take gulps of wine from his cup between his sobbing. The expression on Xi Shen’s face didn’t leave as he turned from Bai Xiaofung to look at everyone else. He saw that they had bitter expressions on their face as if they had been dealing with Bai Xiaofung, who was like this, all afternoon. Turning back to a distraught-looking Bai Xiaofung, Xi Shen forced a smile and asked, “Brother Fung, what has gotten you like this?” Bai Xiaofung looked up, and with tears and an awful amount of snot coming from his nose, his lips trembled uncontrollably be
Xi Shen flipped over his palm and another wine gourd appeared in his hand.He popped the cork and was ready to start chugging back the fragrant wine, but Lihua upon smelling the wine and sensing the dense Spiritual Qi in it, her eyes go wide in stupefaction before her hand shot across the table towards the wine gourd as quick as lightning. However, Xi Shen leaned to the side and her hand went past the wine gourd barely missing it.Xi Shen took a few gulps before he stop and said to Lihua, “What’s wrong with you? Why are you grabbing at my things, if you want some then get your own.”Lihua, who was looking down at her hand in shock, snapped out of her thoughts before she look up at Xi Shen. Confusion plagued her mind at what just happened, but it was hidden deep within her eyes.Seeing Xi Shen taking more gulps of the wine, Lihua said frantically, “What are you doing, you stupid prince! Spit that out and cough up the rest you just swallowed, are you trying to give yourself Qi Poisonin
“Wooaah!!”“He did it!! Shiming did it, he beat the last opponent!!”“That’s the fourth Faction they beat on our Sword Pavilion, to think they were this powerful!”The Sword Pavilion mountain had its own private training grounds and this was where the Ming Academy disciples chose to hold the Faction against Faction battles.A disciple who was nearby suddenly snorted and said derisively, “Are all of you a bunch of fucking idiots? Why are you all cheering that we lost? Aren't you ashamed that they manage to beat four of our Factions? All of you don’t deserve to be disciples of the Sword Pavilion.”Hearing those words, the few disciples who were cheering at the Ming Clan’s victory looked around them to see various of their fellow disciples staring at them with anger and contempt. It was completely humiliating that they lost all their matches until now, but these bastards were even cheering on the enemy who came into their home and was ransacking the place!Xi Shen looked over at this sce
On the stage, Ming Chu’s fist rocketed towards Guiren preparing for a head-on collision with his incoming fist, but right before their fist could connect Guiren’s hand suddenly loosen. He then shifted his posture to his right leg and moved to the side of Ming Chu. His glowing golden palm that resembled flowing water moved passed Ming Chu's fist and impacted his left side.Ming Chu’s momentum forward was disrupted by that blow, causing him to become unbalanced and stagger to the side. Guiren moved again, this time his fist resemble a jackhammer that slammed against Ming Chu’s temple, but even with his imbalance posture Ming Chu was able to lift his left hand to block Guiren’s heavy blow.*Bang!*Feeling the numbness in his forearm from that blow made Ming Chu feel surprised.*Swoosh!*Ming Chu had no time to rest as Guiren’s left foot swung out at his exposed abdomen. With an audible bang, Ming Chu felt the wind get knocked out of him as he flew back several meters.*Thud* *Thud* *Thud
On the stairs leading up the Sword Pavilion mountain peak, a tall slender-looking youth that seemed as if the slightest breeze could blow him over was claiming them.The disciple who he passed would stop and stare at him in confusion and with perplexed looks on their face, some would even show a minute amount of hostility.This reaction from these Sword Pavilion disciples was because of the signature red robes of the Blade Pavilion, which were comically about to slip off of him due to his thin frame. This youth who looked around fifteen or sixteen years old had a stern look on his face. He looked like a disciplined youth who would earnestly work hard on his cultivation and Saber Skills, but at the same time would forsake everything in the outside world. Neither participating in social interactions nor thinking that it was worth his time to do such things.So between his eyebrows, one could decern that he was someone who didn’t grasp normal human behavior or etiquette. He had distanced
“Wait, could it be that this was what Shiming was after? That person's name was Yang Su, right? He was the one that beat brother Shiming in the Freshmen Disciple Competition and it looks like brother Shiming wants a rematch by all means.”The disciples discussed among themselves and anticipation started to permeate the training ground venue. One reason was in fact because they were still completely frustrated that they had lost all of their matches.When they saw Guiren, a little bit of hope sparked to release their pent-up anger, but it only built up because of Shiming's shameless act. Renxiang came next and they once again became excited, however, with this development, and the fact that Yang Su was known to have defeated Shiming before, they were suddenly glad that he had entered their Sword Pavilion.As Yang Su looked to Xi Shen to see him nod, Yang Su leaped onto the stage while the cheers of the Sword Pavilion disciples were directed to him.To tell the truth, Yang Su had become
So, that's the end of Book One."..."Are you mad?"..."Of course you are, I'm sorry."Fuck you, Author..."Wah! I'm really sorry!!*start groveling and begging for forgiveness.*For those of you who haven't seen it in the last chapter(it's not like I didn't put it in the title.) I made the decision to end Book One here, right on the edge of a massive cliff... don't kill me haha, I swear I'll write Book Two.Oh, did you see the title of Book Two? If not here it is again... BOOK TWO: War Of Continents... coming soon.I always intended to split this novel into separate books, but I never planned on stopping Book One here. At first, I made the decision to go on hiatus, but then as I read over the last few chapters I realized this was somewhat of a good place to end Book One... please don't kill me.For all the readers who have reached this point... thank you.I've been writing this book for over a year now. Arguably I haven't posted much in the last three months, but we don't talk about t
When Gu Min landed in front of him, Yang Su stood there staring at him with a blank expression while tears ran down his cheeks.“What, you won't even come running to hug me after not seeing me for so long? You always did when we were little. Or have you grown too big now? You’re almost as tall as I am.”Gu Min said this jokingly, but Yang Su could only lower his head and began wiping his tears.Gu Min walked up to him and hugged him.“It’s okay, why are you crying?”“I-I thought you died because of me. And Mom and Dad, they…”“Did they blame you?”A sad expression appeared on Gu Min’s face, but Yang Su shook his head.“No, after they thought you died they wouldn’t let me out of their sights. It's because of you that I couldn’t even set foot outside of the house.”Gu Min cracked a smile when he heard his little brother’s words.“I’m sorry I didn’t come home, I-”“It’s fine.”Yang Su suddenly said cutting off Gu Min.“As long as you’re fine I don’t care if I never see you again, I just
Ling Tian was in the sky scanning the crowd of disciples down below.His heart was filled with both anger and frustration.Soon, his gaze stopped on a figure that was trying to blend into the crowd as much as possible.But despite the hood hiding their appearance, Ling Tian knew exactly who this person was.In a fit of rage and worry, he bolted toward this person.On the ground, Li Shen looked at Yang Su and asked.“Yang Su, what do you mean, is that person your older brother?”Everyone in the group heard this and they all turned to look at Yang Su.Yang Su nodded and said.“He looks slightly different, but I’m sure that’s him.”While Xian was smiling off to the side, Mu Fan glanced at Yang Su’s brother in the air and scowled.“His hair is ever redder than yours, how revolting.”Jun frowned and elbowed Mu Fan to shut up.As Yang Su continued to look at his brother he started to become more agitated.He was skeptical of Xian’s words before but now that he saw his brother he was overcom
Mu Fan placed everyone down before they all glared at Xian.Xian shrugged his shoulders in response.Jun was about to comment on Xian being here, but Li Shen placed a hand on his shoulder.“Look after Lu Yue for me.”Hearing this, Jun turned to look at Lu Yue before hurrying over.Fei Yin hurried over as well, it looked like she had a few superficial wounds he was able to heal.Li Shen then looked at Xian and asked.“What’s the point of you joining? You seem to have a group of your own.”“Well, that doesn’t mean I can’t join yours right?”Li Shen went silent for a moment and then said.“I’ll think about it. For now, we should focus on why we were teleported here.”Xian turned to look at the front of the hall where a throne was before saying with narrowed eyes.“Isn’t it obvious my other half? Someone wants us here.”Hearing Xian’s words, everyone in the group had their expressions change.They suddenly had a bad feeling rise in their hearts. One that Mu Fan long had.“Master…?”Li She
“D-Damn it, what is happening now?!”Mu Fan cried out as he saw his fingers fading away.Li Shen looked over at him and then down at his own hand to see his fingers were fading away as well, and at a rapid pace at that.Li Shen then looked towards the sky to see that after shattering, what was revealed was a clear blue sky.The shattered fragments of the previous crimson sky were still hovering in the air, reflecting the blue sky above and the Fiery Dimension below at the same time.Looking away from this scene, Li Shen bent down to pick up Lu Yue and carry her bridal style. He then turned to Mu Fan and said.“It’s okay, we’re being teleported to the Hidden Fragmented Realm. Hold onto me.”Mu Fan hurriedly got up and place his overly large palms on Li Shen’s shoulders.Mu Fan then watched in curiosity as a strange black light with starry light in it spread from Li Shen’s body to cover both him and Lu Yue.“What kind of ability is this?”Mu Fan said looking around. It almost seemed as
“Stop being so dramatic, I barely touched you.”Li Shen said as he gave Mu Fan who was on the ground a cursory glance.Mu Fan wined.“It is you. Bastard, do you want to get hit in the head and see how it feels?”Mu Fan then glared at Li Shen, but in response, Li Shen merely rolled his eyes and then turn back to check on an unconscious Lu Yue.Mu Fan also turned to her and asked.Is she going to be alright?”“If we can get to Jun in time, then everything will be fine.”“Is that why you let those bastards get away?”Mu Fan said as he watch Gu Jin and Shiming fly away with the rest of the Fire Empire’’s disciples and Ming Clan members.Li Shen shifted his head to look in their direction before turning back to Lu Yue.“There will come a time when they can longer run away from me, but that time hasn’t come yet. Rather, you should be healing your injuries before thinking about fighting in your condition.”“It merely scratches, I’m fine!”Mu Fan said confidentially, but Li Shen suddenly saw
“You fucker, I’ll definitely kill you for this!!”Shiming’s face was deathly pale, but intense hatred was evident in his eyes.“Huh? How are you going to do that when you’re going to see King Yama?”Mu Fan kicked Shiming’s severed arm that held his saber to the side as he walked towards him.Shiming manage to stop his bleeding and he held his stump as he slowly got up.A crazed look was in his eyes that matched Mu Fan’s own.Mu Fan didn’t care and he rushed to lop off his head like he promised he would.He appeared in front of Shiming and did a horizontal slash.However, a crazed Shiming suddenly grasp the void and a red illusory blade appeared in his remaining hand.Swoosh!Shiming swung it towards Mu Fan’s incoming saber and a Blade Energy no weaker than Mu Fan’s own swept out.BANG!A loud explosion occurred that caused the ground beneath the two to form a massive crater.Shiming was seen flying out of the dust that had risen in the area.Even when he called on his own Blade Will h
Shiming wasn’t in a hurry as he flew over to where Mu Fan was.Previously when Mu Fan had reached this location and realized he had found Lu Yue, he didn’t hesitate to start hacking.Now laying around him were numerous bloody corpses of the Fire Empire Disciples. But of course, there were also disciples who came from various small Sects that were transported here with Lu Yue. A few disciples in the group Mu Fan came with had died too.Mu Fan frowned at this sight.Something didn’t feel right to him. He loved hacking these fuckers for what they were doing, but this type of massacre irked him.It’s as if it was all planned.Mu Fan didn’t know, but he could vaguely sense something was wrong.As Mu Fan was feeling repulsed by this massacre, Shiming’s voice echoed behind him.“Why do I always have to deal with you?”Mu Fan slowly turned to see Shiming land not too far away from him. His eyes narrowed.“You don’t have to worry about that for too long. Once I lop off your head then you never
Gu Jin would send out a fist or a palm strike towards Lu Yue and she would counter it with her Sword Technique.However, she would be blown back and injured every time.After a few more of this, Lu Yue realized that she was getting further away from the battle.Gu Jin had purposely brought them here.“Are you just now realizing the situation you’re in?”Gu Jin said with a laugh.Lu Yue had fallen to the ground and as she slowly got up, Gu Jin’s gaze roamed over her slightly disheveled body.It didn’t take a genius to understand what was going on.However, Lu Yue seemed unphased despite the blood at the corner of her lips and was even weak to the point where she had to lean on her sword for support.Looking at Gu Jin, she said.“And it seems you haven’t realized the situation you're in yet.”Upon hearing that, Gu Jin frowned.However, a moment later his expression changed.Inside his body, he sensed several strands of frigid energy slowly circulating in his meridians.If it weren’t for
