22 - Failure?

The Absolute Yin Physique was like a raging flood dragon wreaking havoc in a mass of land, crazily swallowing and merging with all the great rivers, natural springs and proud lakes of that land in order to exponentially improve itself.

On the outside, Yin's body was like an endless pit greedily absorbing the pure yin qi essence from the snowstorm surrounding her. Her skin looked like it had a layer of ice over it. Even her long silky black hair now had icicles forming in clumps.

Her tender face flashed from red to white and then white to red, and her dainty brows were knitted together as if she was enduring a pain so immense, she would have otherwise puked blood if not for her willpower.

'As if' being the keywords.

    23 - Help Me Bring These Back?Ye Mo and Zhi Ruo arrived at the foot of the Divine Moon Peak side by side, both of their shoes touching the ground exactly at the same time.This was not planned nor done deliberately... or at least, as far as Ye Mo was concerned, it was not. Ye Mo, in fact, did not seem to pay any attention to the Ming Yue Sect's precious third princess.It was all Zhi Ruo being true to her martial arts maniac title. Seeing his burst of speed, she actually felt her blood boil in excitement.As they were both cultivators at the peak of the Divine Awakening Stage of the Nascent Divinity Realm, she wanted to compete with and beat the well-known genius, Sword Flash Ye Mo, in his own game.Speed!

    24 - I'm Strong! Believe Me!Ming Yue Sect's third princess, Zhi Ruo, was quietly following behind Ye Mo the entire time he was searching.No matter how fast Ye Mo was, Zhi Ruo was always just a little distance behind him. However, even with her willowy body and exquisite movement technique, it was difficult for her to remain neck and neck with him. Especially when they entered the Patriarch's Main Hall, she had nearly lost sight of him several times and had to rely on her divine sense to catch up to him. The icy wind and the thick, white fog did not seem to affect Ye Mo’s speed.He was worthy to be called Sword Flash!His speed could already be said to be the pinnacle of the Divine Awakening Stage! He could probably even rival those of the middle Nascent Divinity Realm, t

Being able to stand unharmed in the middle of this world of ice and snow, was that not a self-evident and glaring answer to her question?If a person without dense cultivation were to be stranded here, he or she would have turned into an ice statue in just several breaths of time!Zhi Ruo offered a gentle smile to the little girl who was wearing a giant pout."Miss Xiao (Little) Yin can call Ruo'er old lady if that is to your liking, though it is Ruo'er's blessing if the miss call

    26 - A Warning, A Choice"What are you saying, you little brat?!"A certain young man completely lost his cool. His entire face, his neck, and even both his ears, were burning a bright shade of red, making him look like a human volcano about to spew out fire.On the other hand, a certain young woman only lightly coughed, opting to look away like nothing was heard or said. However, her frail shoulders were obviously trembling, whether from laughter or embarrassment, no one could ever say.Yin harrumphed. "You are a little brat! Your whole family are little brats!"Ye Mo would have pulled out his beard if he ever has one! "Why is your mouth so filthy? Have you been cursing from the moment you were in your mother's womb?"

Do you want to grow up to be a lady or a bear?"Ye Mo's mouth kept twitching when he heard Little Yin mutter some inconceivable nonsense under her breath.He had completely lost all face today. Thinking about it, it seemed like ever since this little brat appeared in the forest on the outskirts of Leaf City, nothing good had ever happened whenever she's around.He picked her up from a massacre ground which already spelled a bad omen.His residence was literally raided out of desserts and snacks in a single night.The front yard of his manor was half-destroyed by the

    28 - Her First ExcursionBefore Yin could say more, she was already being whisked away by a scarlet-faced Ye Mo. He was gritting his teeth, running like a mama tiger bringing away her cub from hunters hot on their heels."This Ye Mo bids the Third Princess farewell!" he shouted without even bothering to look over his shoulder."Elder Ye—"In a flash, Ye Mo and Yin were out of the broken pocket dimension and were only a few breaths away from leaving the Patriarch's Main Hall.Yin furiously yanked a fistful of Ye Mo's long hair. "My spoils of war! Aah! Don't leave them behind! One of my pouches still has space! Get back there, old fogey! At least let me fill it up to the brim!"Ye Mo

    29 - A Double-edged Sword"So, when are you leaving?"Those words came out toneless and dull, heartless even, perfectly exuding a kind of sagely nonchalance only those with utter disregard to the world could pull off.Coupled with Ye Mo's disinterested expression and cold stance... well, who was this old fogey trying to hoodwink? A real five-year-old kid?Yin would not be Yin if she bought this obvious scam.Standing right beside him, she could technically see his hands trembling. His paleness literally screamed, 'I am affected by this!'Besides, he was acting way too stiff!What a noob!"No wonder

    30 - It Was The Stick!"Old fogey, you lousy thick-skulled sorry excuse of a cultivator!" Yin hissed through gritted teeth as she ran up towards what she remembered to be the direction of the old fogey's residence. "Starting from now, I'll officially call you dumb fogey!"Starting from the lakeside pavilions, the stone paths that snaked and branched outwards towards other courtyards and manors were lined with flower-bearing trees and berry bushes. With the subtle fragrance in the air, together with the soft lights from the hanging lanterns, it made the place look soothing and sophisticated.But she was not being soothed!Yin was still oozing with annoyance!Nobody was around, but she was in too bad a mood to actually freakin' care wh

    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. "Yes, a name befitting a horse."They could call her whatever they want. Why

    *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. Awakened by a burning pain

    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

  • Devil, Be Nice   266 - For Editing*

    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
