“Young Lady, please wear this!” one man immediately jumped towards the stage as he removed his outer robe. The man was one of her seniors, the Third Raven.
Han Yuanying burst into tears as she grabbed the outer robe closer to her trembling body. “Senior Xiao, wu wu wu…”
The five Ravens representing the strongest of the Ravenrise Mercenaries were in an uproar. It was scandalous to have a woman have her clothes torn, especially in public, what more for such a thing to happen to a tender young girl.
It was even more scandalous because the victim was the proud daughter of one of the top powerhouses in the city and it happened in the presence of the members of the Imperial Clan. It was akin to slapping the faces

Did you two have fun tonight?”As soon as the banquet wrapped up and the important guests from the capital, Qing Chuntao and Zhi Ruo, left the pavilion, the atmosphere between the banquet guests grew more casual. Those whose families and forces were close began chatting leisurely, forming circles of their own.Relieved of her security duties, Wu Xuan’er approached the table where the two young girls were seated.“Aunt!” Wu Pingxia nearly jumped into Wu Xuan’er’s arms in glee. “I miss you! You do not visit me in our Wu residence anymore. Did you see how good I fought earlier? Did you see? Did you? I did well, didn’t I?”

Several hours ago… Just as the sun was about to set and guests were still arriving for the banquet, ona manor within the Tenth peak where Ye Mo and the people from the Second Lineage were temporarily staying, two youths in white robes could be seen stepping out of the main courtyard and was headed towards the manor gate. Of the two youths, one was a ten year old boy with a thin face, while the other was a younger boy with a tender and delicate frame, looking so small and fragile he could be mistaken for a six or seven year old girl. The older boy looked worried and hesitant, as if he was ready to bolt back into the manor at the slightest sound, while the other one was excitement incarnate, looking like he was about

Famous? Why would I be?” He was the bottom ranked among the newly-recruited outer sect disciples, relegated to be a janitor disciple who only do small odd jobs around the sect in order to cultivate. In a world where people could only praise those who had strength, someone like him who was only at the f

103 - Are You Willing to Trust Me? It was late in the night when Yin, Ye Mo and the others had all returned to the Tenth Peak. Even though they were cultivators with strong bodies, everyone was mentally tired after the social events of the day, and had returned to their respective courtyards. Yin requested that she be left alone tonight. Even the maids assigned to serve her had left her courtyard. She was in a complex mood. “It’s snowing…” Winter had already started. Small tufts of white snow were gently falling from the sky, but as the sect grounds were protected by a rune array barrier, the central area where the inner sect was located, as well as the peaks belonging to the elders, could not feel the chill of snow and h

104 - What you can learn will depend on your ability“Are you willing to trust me?”Yin’s question made Ye Mo’s heart pound, and it was as if the wine he had been drinking thoroughly evaporated from his body, making his mind somber and his thoughts crystal clear. He knew that this strange little girl would thoroughly support him with her own equally strange means if he were to say ‘yes’. It was a sincerity that touched him.All these years, his chest had been stuffy, full of grievances at the tragedy suffered by his family, but he was someone who considered the overall situation. As long as he could give justice to his fallen clansmen without harming Ye Sect’s strength, then there was no longer any reason for him to hesitate.After

When she inquired as to why, only then did she find out that after yesterday’s lunch, Qing Wu You did not return to their lodging. In fact, his servant even took his stuff, which meant that his young master would be staying elsewhere long term.What did that mean?Wasn’t it because he chose to be a follower of that little girl of unknown origins?Was Qing Wu You truly going to be staying with her from now on in order to cultivate?After asking the servants, she learned that Qing Wu You was indeed lodging in the reside

The old servant seemed to be displeased to find his young master kneeling before a little girl, but he was not showing anything on the surface. Only Yin, who had a strong soul, could capture a flash of his true thoughts.

107 - Future Profession? World Teacher!“Huh? How can a baby cultivate?”Though it was the old servant who voiced this question, it was obvious from their expressions that both Ye Zhihao and Qing Wu You also shared this sentiment. After all, Yin’s claim was against the common knowledge shared by everyone in this world.‘Aish. The people of this world are lacking in education. Don’t tell me my future profession is to become the teacher of the world?’ The more she thought about it, the wider the smile on her face grew. ‘Eh. The Great Teacher Yin? Hmm. Awesome Teacher Yin? World Teacher Yin? The title does not sound too bad.’Yin pulled her hands and clasped them behind her, taking a pose of a sage. “Do you know what prena

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!

*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.

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
