“Mu Fan, this is not the time to deal with your nonsense, we are in the middle of a spar. And I assure you I have no idea what you're talking about, I didn’t pressure your Mu Clan.”“Of course you did you bastard! I’m sure you did! Someone from your Ming Clan came to my Clan and have my father sign a Blood Oath Contract that says he relinquish his position as the Clan Head!!”“What does that have to do with me, and why would I do that? I have no interest in your Clan affairs to have your father relinquish his position as Clan Leader. You really are crazy after all, this is just a misunderstanding but you went ahead a react like this. How do you even know that it was someone from our Ming Clan and not some conflict happening within your Clan itself?”Just by listening to his story, Shiming could understand what was going on. He was sure his Ming Clan hadn’t done something like that, even with this crazy bastard's personality, they still wanted to win over someone of his talents to thei
Xi Shen’s shamelessness and Mu Fan’s craziness were too eye-catching.No way Mu Fan would fall for such tactics right?That was what everyone was thinking.But then they become dumbfounded when he agreed.“Ahh, I guess I could have agreed to something like that. Alright, I swear to join your Faction, but, if you want me to become your loyal subordinate you’d have to give me a reason why.”After that a lightning struck overhead, confirming that Mu Fan had indeed meant to swear a Blood Oath.Shiming’s eyes all most spout fire upon seeing this unbelievable scene. They were the ones who wanted him to join their Faction, but now he suddenly join Xi Shen of all people Faction and now even held a grudge against their Ming Clan. This outcome was completely absurd!It almost feels as if some inexplicable force had manipulated all of this to happen. It was just too much of a coincidence for this to happen!While the crowd began to chatter loudly about what Mu Fan joining Xi Shen's Faction meant
At the entrance of the Celestial Academy Mu Fan finally came to a stop to Xi Shen's relief.Looking around for a moment, Mu Fan then turned to Xi Shen and said, “Alright take out one of your treasures and let’s go to my Clan, come-on come-on there’s no time to waste.”Mu Fan said urgingly to Xi Shen.Xi Shen looked at him and asked, “Where's yours?”“Huh? Mine? I don’t have one, do you think I could afford one when I could barely clothe myself.”Mu Fan pointed at his tattered red robes as he said that.“So how do go on missions? Don’t you need a Flying Spirit Artifact to travel to most places?”“Nope, I don’t go on missions. As a Chosen, I’m exempt from completing mandatory assignments from the Academy.”Mandatory assignments, for example, was where disciples were supposed to accept a certain amount of missions per year, and a few other things that the Academy deemed necessary for its disciples to complete.Xi Shen wasn’t surprised that Mu Fan was a Chosen, it would be weird if he was
Xi Shen looked around the Mu Clan and picked a direction that seemed to lead to the main hall.As he walked along the concrete pathway he saw various people rushing by and heard noises coming from that general direction, confirming he was probably heading the right way.Passing the various pavilions, Xi Shen came upon the Clan’s main building where Clan meetings occurred.He saw from his position just outside the doors, several people sitting in chairs around the hall meaning they were in a meeting.The crowd of people stopped a few meters away from the main building as they weren’t qualified to go near it when the upper echelons of the Clan were in a meeting.“The Young Master is finally back! I hope he’ll be able to resolve this issue with Mu Sun. Ever since he took over, the Clan had gone to ruins, we’re completely divided!”“It’s because of that Ming Clan youth’s fault, just because our Patriarch didn’t want to hand over the Young Miss he went ahead and schemed to have him impriso
Sitting up in his chair, Mu Fan lifted his hand and sent out his Spiritual Qi to have it enter his uncle.The metal properties of his Qi then jolted Mu Sun awake. He slowly tried to get up, but Mu Fan coldly said, “Stay kneeled.”Mu Sun reluctantly agreed and got on his knees in front of his nephew.“Where’s my father?” Mu Fan asked coldly.“He’s fine, he’s in the Clan Dungeon.”“Someone go and release my father.”One of the elders nearby got up himself and left to carry out his Young Master’s order. He had a skip in his step and was even whistling a delightful tune as he went.It was obvious he was glad this situation was solved. He and the others who had been opposed to Mu Sun becoming the Clan Head had faced constant harassment from all sides these past few days.After that, Mu Fan asked, “What happened when I wasn’t here, tell me the full story.”Mu Sun then went on to tell of how the Ming Clan youth had stopped by in their City and happened to see Mu Fan's sister, who was three y
*Swoosh* *Swoosh*The wind kicked up in the small training grounds attached to the courtyard Xi Shen and the rest were given.Lihua, Fang Chen, Fei Yin, and Yang Su were seated within a circle with closed eyes. Their expressions held concentration as they followed Xi Shen’s instructions for the umpteenth time, and perform the Heavenly Connection Soul Art.But the outcome was no different than last time.The link the group made with their soul became chaotic before it violently broke apart.The backlash of the soul link’s destruction caused their faces to turn ashen and blood to seep from the corner of their lips.Fei Yin who was seated cross-legged in front of the standing Xi Shen said, “Young Master this Soul Art isn’t working. Our Qi’s are too different from each other, it’s creating a disruption in the link causing it to break every time we try to connect our souls together. We can’t keep forcing this technique to work, it’s causing damage to our souls.”Xi Shen who had on a frustr
Most weapons people wield have a distinct feeling and were inherently different. From this, when one wields their weapon the Spiritual Qi would take on that feeling and sensation. Even if one was using a club the feeling of one’s Qi would take on a blunt and heavy pressure.When using the sword, the feeling of a person’s Qi would be fast and sharp, making it known as Sword Qi. Blade Qi was more forceful and straightforward in nature because of the way the weapon was wielded. Only one side of it was used for attacking so a blade wielder had to maneuver their wrist to attack their opponents at each turn. They had no choice but to be forceful and overbearing while attacking, and if they slip up, it could lead to their disadvantage.Sword wielders were different as both sides of the swords were sharp so they have numerous options of how to attach an opponent. They could be as flexible as they want to be.These are just some of the things that distinguish each weapon, and when adding Qi us
Before Mu Fan asked any follow-up questions, Lihua said, “My name is Zhi Lihua age sixteen, and my innate talent is at the Sky grade with my comprehension being at the Heaven Grade. My life goal is to protect the Li Imperial Family even if that means the cost of my life.”Hearing that, Xi Shen nodded a few times before he pointed at Fang Chen and said, “Fang Chen, your next.”“Hm.” Fang Chen made a sound of agreement before he firmly said, “My name is Fang Chen, age sixteen. My innate talent is low, at the Human Grade, but my Soul and cultivation attribute is at the Sky grade. My life’s goal is to spread the Nine Swords of Slaughter Sword Formation fame throughout the Maple Continent and beyond for my master.”Fei Yin and the others were surprised at this, aside from Xi Shen, Fang Chen hadn’t told anyone about his goal.“Following me was the right choice, I can provide you with opportunities to make that dream of yours come true. Alright then, Fei Yin your turn.”“Yes, Young Master. M
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
