As Wu Xuan’er listened to her older brother’s explanation with wide eyes, a sense of lingering fear started to crawl deep inside her heart. Her normally smooth forehead was creased, giving an impression of vulnerability to this usually sweet-faced lady.
There had been various attacks on the villages under the jurisdiction of the Leaf City, and many factions, along with the three giant powers, had dispatched their members and disciples in response to the growing worry among the populace. Just a few days ago, two teams headed by inner sect disciples of the middle-staged Foundational Spirit Realm had reported that a number of villages were pillaged by enemies of unknown origins.
However, for the Ye Sect, the mobilization of disciples of this level were merely in the form of voluntary missions to ea

117 - You Can’t Read? The white-haired Xiao Ku was torn as he hurried back towards the training grounds, carrying with him the four treasures of the study requested by Young Miss Yin. Although he was a mere servant with a humble unassuming appearance, the disciples of the Ye Sect all gave way to him. Ever since they arrived, the disciples were severely warned about showing respect in front of the guests from the imperial capital. However, in addition to awe, there was fear in their eyes at the imperial crest stitched on his robes. Xiao Ku did not pay them any mind as he was already used to such high treatment, not only due to his identity as someone trusted by the imperial family, but also due to his high cultivation base. Despite being a subordinate of the imperial f

118 - Should I Continue To Play Pretend…?After finishing a number of Dao Paintings, Yin admired them for a bit before keeping them in her spatial pouch, intending to give them to the boys after they’re done with their first physical task. With these, it could be said that they would formally start learning in her tutelage.Though the old servant Xiao Ku was surprised that a little girl possessed a precious treasure that contained spatial laws, something that was rare even within the venerable figures among the great clans in the imperial capital, he did not find it unexpected and was calmly cleaning up the mess on the writing table. As someone who had interacted with Yin for several days, he had already started getting immunity to all the absurd things about her.After all, this was a girl who could crea

119 - I Kinda Want My Old Body, But NahYin briefly considered the image of her original body.A delicate face even moonlight could not rival and a body of grace and elegance that no immortal could surpass, curves that were neither too little nor too much, charm that was both innocent and seductive...‘I kinda want my old body back, but nah. I don’t want to be worshipped as a goddess again!’What’s so good about a celestial appearance in a lowly world? From the novels, that kind of appearance would only stir up trouble, especially inside restaurants where dog-like second generation young masters would only lust over her amazing boobs, her tiny waist, her mile-long legs...Her unequalled, unrivalled, peerless b

120 - Caught You! “It’s indeed Little Sister Yin!” Behind Yin, a group of teenagers in white robes were approaching with big friendly smiles on their faces. The oldest seemed to be no older than eighteen, while the youngest had to be around thirteen or fourteen. They looked familiar, especially the only girl in the group with plump boobs that could rival her original body’s, but Yin could not be bothered to try remembering where she had seen them. ‘Am I that famous? Do each and every Ye Sect disciple recognize me now?’ Pretending to not hear them, she proceeded to walk faster towards the candy stand. However, before she could take another step, she felt the only female among

121 - The Reason Why We Admire You (1) The teenager called Li Ci could be considered the most ordinary, the reason being the moment his stick of tanghulu was handed to him, he remained quiet on his spot as he enjoyed the sweet. He did not bother Yin, and simply chose to listen on the sides. On the other hand, his other three friends brought Yin to a nearby empty pavilion and circled her like she’s some sort of interrogation suspect who would bolt out of the blue at the earliest sign of an opening. Which, to be fair, was exactly what Yin had in mind. Li Yaoyao fussed around Yin as if she’s a maid and Yin was a disabled kid that needed to be coddled. While Yin loved sitting on her soft lap, the way Li Yaoyao touched her here and there made her feel borderline v

121 - The Reason Why We Admire You (2)“By now, your name has spread all over the sect, Little Sister! No, not just the sect, but the entire Leaf City--that there exists the pride of the Ye Sect, a little genius girl who has cultivated to the Foundational Spirit Realm before the age of ten!”It turned out that Li Ci was the main culprit why his friends were acting like little fangirls fawning all over Yin. As the only son of a Protector of Ye Sect, he was among the handful of disciples who personally witnessed Yin’s strength from her spar against the silly brat representing the CIty Lord Manor during last night’s banquet.Yin, as someone taken in under Ye Mo’s banner, was already pretty infamous when she stayed in the Ye Sect due to her unknown origins, which pretty much raised hell among

122 - Do We Simply Wait For Rescue? (1)“Prepare to defend your people,” Yin’s words brought the laughter within the pavilion into a halt.If it were Ye Mo or his nephew Ye Hua--or perhaps even the old servant Xiao Ku--who came to hear those words of caution coming out of Yin’s mouth, they would have immediately jumped out, fully alert and ready to battle.However, those currently accompanying Yin at the moment were merely ordinary disciples who were at most in the later stages of the Body Washing Realm. They did not have the awareness of the current danger, neither do they have the strength to protect themselves nor detect the abnormality in their surroundings.That was why they only gawked at the little girl who rose from her seat and stared at the entr

123 - Do We Simply Wait For Rescue? (2) Inside one of the spacious courtyards within the Tenth Peak, a simple-looking man was threading along a determined path with agile steps. Several footprints could be seen on the grass, the deep dents on the ground showing how the man’s feet never ventured out from the same exact spots as he repeated a certain footwork over and over again. At the same time, his right arm was waving around with purpose, hacking and slashing his bamboo sword in the air. Bamboo swords were practice swords crafted from a kind of light versatile wood, which would normally not injure a normal martial artist once hit, or else it would break once too much force was exerted on it. From the calluses on the man’s hand, it was obvious that he was someone who had used a real sword for more than a decade, yet his demeanor did not drop despite using a n

Scholar Rai held the ancient scroll between two calloused fingers, studying the faded ink with narrowed eyes. The papyrus was brown with age, the content written in a verbose and grand manner, as was usually the case with writings from hundreds of years ago. Its importance could not be translated into words. In fact, it surprised him that his lord father managed to keep these imperial treasures away from the capital.It had taken him twice the usual time to understand the runes. He found himself impressively overwhelmed not only by the sheer historic importance of these documents, but also because the prophecies spoke of the expiration of the bloods of the Old.He feared that the first of the visions written have come into passing.The scrolls he found were written by the last of the true prophets, during a time of historic darkness, the Legaliath Cross, back when magic was free to be harnessed by every man and woman and child. The Legaliath Cross was a devastating war that decimated

"You find this funny, Silver?" This was the first time that Lakas had directly addressed her in a conversation. She could not help but shudder at the slight amusement that colored his normally stern voice. "He could have killed you."Her smile widened.Lakas almost mirrored her expression, but then when he realized that he had spectators in the form of the other three girls inside her cage, he erased any trace of emotion from his face. "The four of you are currently part of the most prized collection of the emperor, but let me warn you. Not all warriors in this camp think the same as I do. You girls are precious, but you are replaceable. Think before you act."As soon as he left, the oldest of the girls, a beauty with curly flaxen hair and foliage green eyes scooted close to her. It was the first time anyone attempted to communicate with her. Most of the time, she was simply left alone in her corner of the cage. "That man just protected you, Silver," Green Eyes laughed excitedly. "He

The survivors were placed in metal cages where the heathens could openly leer at them, appreciating the goods before they were sold. The young warrior called Lakas looked incredibly silly with parchment and quill in his bloody hands, and his annoyed look did not escape her when he was tasked to make an inventory of the slaves."Name?"While the prisoners around her sobbed and wailed for their losses, Enna merely tried to make herself small in a corner. She never spoke. She never raised her head.Lakas snatched her chin. He was scowling. "Name?"When she refused to answer, the bald man behind Lakas growled before backhanding her. "Stupid girl! Tell us your name so that we can be done with this sham and leave!"Elbows shaking, she sat up, gazing at them with tired silvery eyes. Still, she did not open her mouth."You – "Lakas stopped the man with a wave. "Drop it. I will simply write Silver."The man smirked.

*She woke up to a strangled sound akin to an injured animal.Crying.Someone was crying.As the sound grew louder, she stirred, slowly, groaning due to the escalating pain at the base of her skull. Opening her eyes, she saw bloody bodies around her. Bile rose, and she emptied the contents of her stomach into the scarlet snow. After a few fuzzy seconds, she realized with relief that most of the bodies around her appeared to be moving. Bloody, but alive. She profusely thanked the good Spirits that there were people who still lived, despite the nagging thought that most of them would have preferred to have died along with their dignity and families.Her arms and feet were bound. Bound with thick ropes. She tried to stretch her legs, grasping too late that she was merely a stride away from the big fire that her captors made.She flinched from the pain.It was the same kind of burning pain that paralyzed her before she blacked out.It was also her first memory.

The heathens burned the temples. They attacked the farms. They destroyed everything from tiny peasant homes to historical monuments more than hundreds of years old. People who resisted died. People who surrendered died. The snow-clad village of Cardia was stained red. Blood of men. Blood of women. Blood of children.The enemy's arrival was silent; their attack sudden. The sleepy spell brought by winter on the border village was broken by animalistic screams of pain. Cries of people burning were everywhere. There were shrieks of villagers dying. By midnight, half of Cardian population was slain mercilessly by the bronze-skinned men covered in wolf pelts.The invaders relished the sight of the pale people bleeding, enjoying every slash of sword and arrow released as the village burned. They meant to annihilate every Northerner. They were humans on bloodlust — hungry predators on the hunt.They proudly called themselves the sons of Summer. The Cardians called them heathens from the Sout

Even if the Mind Forgets, the Soul Remembers (3)A fair-skinned human girl no taller than the height of his waist, wearing a satin robe that was neither stained by blood or mud. Big eyes on a small face, perfectly arranged black hair in a style of braided bun, delicately balanced features that indicated she would surely grow into a gorgeous young lady given a few years.Her adorable appearance made one have an urge to pinch her chubby cheeks, and if there were any females around, Ye Mo felt that they would fawn over how the little girl looked like a beautiful living, breathing doll.‘And it’s not a sight that should be seen in the middle of a battlefield.’Ye Mo tried to open his mouth to say something, but he remained unable to utter even a single word.‘Dangerous.’It didn’t make sense, but that was what his intuition was telling Ye Mo. His body wasn’t responding—there was no flight impulse, no, there wasn’t even an attempt to fight against the girl, even if it’s a last act of survi

265 - The Girl Who Cannot be Remembered (2)“This body is truly inconvenient.”Little Yin sighed as she sat on the eaves of the roof, looking like a tomboy leisurely camping when in fact she’s trying to reconstruct her soul with the help of moonlight.At first, she thought of leaving the Ye Clan while Ye Mo was unconscious. She felt like staying would give her a huge headache, but she was tied up by all the connections she made in this city.The Qing Blessed Lands had officially entered the state of war.Though communication was crippled, Little Yin was able to overhear the intelligence gathered by the hidden experts brought by the Purple Plumed General.Immortal Wuwei’s timely arrival managed to save Ye Sect and the entire Leaf City, but that wasn’t the same with the other cities. Even the news about the situation in the imperial capital could not be found.That little pretty boy, Qing Wu You, wanted to return to check on his family.

264 - The Girl Who Cannot be Remembered (1) “Uncle, are you all right?” It was Ye Hua who first noticed that Ye Mo was acting strange. The man’s eyes were looking at the people in the room as if they were people he had not seen for a long time. There was recognition in his gaze, as well as a kind of dissonance. “Huh? Yeah…yeah…” After staying unconscious for days and almost crossing the fine line of life and death, it was reasonable for Ye Mo to be in a daze, and everyone thought so as well. But Ye Hua’s intuition was telling him that his uncle was not just confused, but actually not in a normal state of mind. However, he decided to stay quiet. Because he felt that Little Yin had something to do with this. The young man’s eyes glanced in the direction of the little girl, who brought them all towards the room saying that Ye Mo should be waking up soon. Ye Hua remembered that incident several days ago, that eerie darkness that made his soul tremble. A power that could oppose n

263 – Even if the Mind Forgets, the Soul Remembers (5)‘I died?’Ye Mo tried to remember the last thing that happened to him, but only fragmented pieces of images appeared in his mind. Confusion was the only thing he could feel aside from the head-splitting pain, though he was trying to calm himself and follow the words of the little girl to embrace his memories.‘Since I died, shouldn’t I undergo samsara? Why am I seeing the memories of my former reincarnations?’What happened to him before he appeared and walked around that endless darkness?No, wait, what was he doing before the little girl appeared?He was swinging his sword against—The little girl frowned when she saw the images swimming inside his mind.“Outers.”Gaaaasp!She reached out her small chubby hands and touched the crown of his head, and she channeled her spiritual energy inside his body, focusing it on erasing those images that did not belong to him or to this era.“You are in so much pain because you took a peek at
