The moment the fluctuating barrier surrounding the Second Peak broke, the flying beasts seemingly had their bloods stimulated after they smelled the scent of humans. With eerie bird-like calls leaving their fanged mouths, the flock of Arctic Fox Bats rushed in to search for prey to devour. Though a handful of them saw Ye Hua and his group and attacked them, the majority of the flying beasts chose to go for the obvious weaker and easier prey scattered within the mountain.
The Second Peak was not only the main residence of the Li Clan, it was also the headquarters of the External Affairs Hall of the Ye Sect. As such, it was also the area where the sect received their guests. Many buildings and courtyards could be seen near the foot of the mountain where they had their assigned lodgings situated. As it was past lunchtime, ma

144 - The Revenge Served Ten Years Too Late (2) There was a popular old saying that when a nobleman takes revenge, ten years is not too late, and that one should bide one's time and wait for the right opportunity to seek vengeance (1). People from many walks of life claimed that revenge is a dish best served cold, and that vengeance is often more satisfying if it is not exacted immediately. Face slap once you become far more powerful and wealthier than they would ever be. A kick on their pride and a spit on their dignity once you showed off your success, making him regret ever wronging you. However, for someone like Ye Hua, who was merely a child when he lost his father, his mother, his brothers and sisters, due to the greed of Li Clan, revenge was something he wanted to de

145 - The Revenge Served Ten Years Too Late (3) Li Xiao Yang had initially been entertaining guests from the allied cultivation families of the Li Clan in his capacity as the young patriarch. Many of them were concerned about Second Elder Li Yun Tian’s situation, and he could do nothing but placate them with empty words. Even Old Woman Xia from the Alchemy Hall was helpless in treating his father, as the injuries of the soul were so rare and complicated, it was a type of injury none of the alchemists and doctors within a mere first rate city could deal with. It seemed like after the banquet, Li Xiao Yang would have to ask the sect leader to allow him to visit the imperial capital and seek alchemists from there. ‘Father cannot die yet. There are many wolves targe

146 - The Revenge Served Ten Years Too Late (4) “Guards! Where are the guards?! Fifth Uncle! Third Uncle! An assassin has entered the premises!” However, the only response that Li Xiao Yang received was a barrage of sword attacks from the disguised intruder. The first one was a swift slash aimed at his neck, and it appeared that there was not even a hint of hesitation in the intruder’s move to land a deadly blow on the Li Clan’s Young Patriarch. However, it was perfectly parried by his own sword, and he was able to launch a counterattack. Although Li Xiao Yang was an unfortunate failure in comparison to the one-in-a-thousand-year monstrous genius title of Ye Mo, the young patriarch was not someone to be belittled. He was in the late stages of the Core Formation Realm, and h

147 - Please Be Reborn With Less Greed in Your Hearts Li Xiao Yang knew that well-trained assassins were taught to never speak, and only idiots or those asking to die would dare converse with the target of their assassination. However, he was attempting to delay the man--perhaps if lucky, find something about him that would allow Li Xiao Yang to determine his identity. ‘Was it an enemy of Father? Someone with a vendetta with the clan? Someone from the sect? An outsider? I need to find out who you are. If you are not going to speak, then I must subdue you!’ “Let me give you a taste of the Mountain Breaking Sword Arts!” Li Xiao Yang exclaimed. Qi containing the earth element flowed out from his body, increasing not only the strength but also the weight of his sword at

148 - Debt Repaid with BloodAfter making sure that neither Protector Li Xiao Yang nor Elder Li Yun Tian were breathing anymore, Ye Hua found that something inside him felt hollow. There was no relief, and there was no happiness either. In fact, it did not seem to make him feel anything.He could only shake his head as he idly wondered why the winter air was unbelievably cold this season. He shook off the blood from the blade of his sword before putting it back in his waist scabbard. He also collected the poisoned daggers he threw while he turned over the furniture inside the room, trying to make it look like there was a hard struggle inside.With a sway of his hand, Ye Hua then wrapped the two still-warm bodies with his qi and put them inside his spatial pouch. Since they were technically corpses now, they were no longer c

149 - The Dilemma of the Rebound Effect (1)“Ye Patriarch, Number One, how is it? Can we escape from this formation?”Princess Qing Chuntao asked, but the two strongest cultivators within the banquet hall could only shake their heads with exasperation. It could be seen that their clothes were partially tattered after receiving a direct hit, yet these two men were the top powerhouses among the group of cultivators, and it was impossible for anyone else to attack them.Number One was the Purple Plumed General’s subordinate at the third stage of the Nascent Divinity Realm. the Divine Ascension Stage. On the other hand, Patriarch Ye Wuqing was at the peak of the second stage, the Divine Profound Stage. Everyone else within the hall aside from the princess was in the early or mid stages of the Divine Awak

Unraveling a formation already falls in the area of study of array masters.”“Since it’s a formation, we just have to remove the eye, right? Shouldn’t it be a formation flag or an artifact planted in a chosen area? If we find the eye and destroy it, the rune array will naturally dissipate. ”“That is generally true for low-level formations,” the Ninth Elder explained. “The problem is that what we are facing is the highest level of formation, a colorless t

Although deep within her bones, she felt like it was an anomalous sword technique, there was hesitation in her heart due to the dissonance that it gave her.Qing Chuntao thought that Zhi Ruo was giving her cultivation guidance, thus, she was quite cooperative.

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.

"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.

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

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.

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

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
