Chapter 52 - Yung does a Doxxing
Yung gave the Flareful Empress his undivided attention for five whole seconds before he felt the most annoying itch in his ear. So he started cleaning it with a quill. As he did so, the violet-haired lady stared back with equal parts contempt and disregard.

At the apex of the amphitheatre, the imposing figures of the Big Five settled into their seats, adorned in intricately decorated garments that ranged from traditional robes to dazzling armour. Each of them carried a unique artifact, whether it was a sword, oar, cym...

If anyone of you is a med school guy (or gal), you might notice the cracks. Two toes were broken. Heh, well that just means I have more time to sit down and write. I got back from India. The trip was extended and did the x-ray immediately after returning. Got the results. And, as you see, my foot really is busted.
I'll upload the next chapter on Tuesday. The chapter schedule will be Tuesday + Friday until I have written enough for a week...

I will post two chapters a week from then until I can save up enough of a backlog to move to 3 chapters a week (I cannot give a deadline for how long this might take). Thank you to all my awesome Patreon supporters for supporting...

There were a few caverns where the crops had been ransacked. The farmers sat on the aisles with forlorn faces. But they got up; they had families to feed.

“On the other side of the voidrift?” Youjin Chao was taken aback. “Not really. There are tales of cultivators going in, but not of them coming out that I have heard. However… sometimes, when a voidrift is closed, another rift opens in its place. Another kin...

"The only disadvantage of this battle formation is that it destroys the enemy extremely thoroughly, with barely any materials left to harvest." Youjin Chao explained, appearing completely impassive at Yung and Su Nanya's PDA. Perhaps he did not know what PDA m...

It was not the most comfortable of experiences. But to travel sitting upon her servant’s shoulder was one of her most luxurious vanities, and shape-shifting her internal organs had solved the problem of mere balance.

Chapter 41 - A rebel teen meets his match!

They argued back and forth and finally settled on an acceptable remuneration. Yung's portion was increased by a lot, which honestly he didn't really feel bad about. Setting best market practices wasn't his job. There were no anti-trust laws here, and how the market balanced ...

Chapter 35 - Riddles that the fox weaves
“I believe true love can cross all impossible boundaries.” Youjin Chao stood firm on his beliefs. His self-confidence was applaudable, if nothing else.
