The disciples of the Eternal Flame Clan are those who have been born into it or have proven themselves by passing the Selection Exam, a feat only the most talented of prodigies dare to attempt.
However, the reward is well worth it. Those who belong to the Eternal Flame Clan have access to resources the average...

His and Her Circumstances IV

“Welcome to the Department of Human Resources.”
Much like the Department of Security and Surveillance, this floor was fairly normal-looking, more so even. Cubicles for the grunts and nice offices for the higher-earners. The sound paper being shuffled about and c...

“Those are Leon and Kirk,” Ms. Steiner told them, pointing to the security guards as they walked into the main lobby. “You will be seeing them most mornings. Hi, guys!”
She waved at them, and though they had faces that looked cut from stone and muscles that...

Don't worry. It wasn't covid. Thank God for that, but I am going to have to make a couple of extra visits this week for a few tests. Hopefully, It won't mess up the update schedule, but I figure I should give you all a heads up just in case.
Anyway, here are the week's chapters...

A celebration is thrown for Feng Zhi when they return to the Eternal Flame Clan.
One they are not invited to.
Instead, the four are subjected to an in-depth debriefing by the Division of External Relationships. It lasts several hours and leaves Liu Jin rather puzzled. Many people in the Eternal Flame Cla...

Chapter 108: An Element of Cleansing should be out for Core Disciples.

Wong Shou does not wake up gently.
Feng Zhi holds him up by the neck and slaps him across the face multiple times to force consciousness back into him. Once he has achieved that goal, he drops him to the cold, hard floor.
The two are still inside the tower. Though the main Heart Devil has been destroyed,...

Spirit Realm, First Level.
“Impossible!”
Hundreds of voices speak at once. Their verdict is unanimous. The black sea rejects the reality before its eyes.
“To achieve a breakthrough in a situation like this…”

So, my computer died last week. Don't worry. I didn't lose anything. I have all my stuff stored elsewhere and any excuse to mess around with a computer is a good one. It was kind of nice, to be honest. Been a long time since I had a regular problem.
Anyway, here are the week's chapters:

“Our feelings can become demons that tear our body from the inside,” Liu Jin recites from memory. “My Master told me that once.”
Cultivation goes against the Will of Heaven at a fundamental level. Thus, the path of a cultivator is one full of dangers. Sometimes, they are physical. Sometimes, they are s...

The leaves dance—the fire burns.
Lu Mei laughs as she moves across the forest. Her steps are so light she might as well be gliding. Over a hundred leaves swirl around her as blue flames give chase. Every time the flames get close to her, Lu Mei moves the leaves to block them. Every time a fireball makes cont...

His and Her Circumstances II

The Blade had six subterranean levels. Five were used for parking, while the last one was an underground bunker, only to be used in the event of a natural disaster. That was what the blueprints registered at the Port Stanley City Hall said. Unofficially, there was far mor...

The main headquarters of Regum were at 1939 Kane Avenue. This was something known by all who lived in Port Stanley. Not only was Regum one of the wealthiest pharmaceutical companies in the world, but their main building, affectionately called The Blade, was an iconic part ...
2021-01-27 13:01:02 +0000 UTC View PostSo, my family had a bit of a covid scare last week. The whole thing ended up being a bit more nerve-wrecking than I thought it'd be. Also, it turns out I'm not a productive writer under pressure, but I already knew that.
But yeah, here are the week's chapters:

Once one reaches the Heaven Realm, the earth will no longer be capable of holding them down. They will be free to soar through skies like eagles and look down on the world below. This is something known by all, but few are those who reach those lofty heights. For most, the Heaven Realm will remain a distant dream. T...

Despite growing up in a city named after its port, Liu Jin does not have much experience with the sea. The port’s best days were a thing of the past long before Liu Jin was born. From the moment the Vermillion continent was sealed away from the rest of the world, well over a thousand years ago, trade across the sea...

There is a poison called Bliss of the Foolish. It has the unique effect of making the one who drinks it believe himself to be wise and knowledgeable. Some would say there is no merit to it as everyone is already suffering from this malady. Still, Old Jiang had made Liu Jin drink it, so that he might know its effects...

The Bright Phantasm Sect is on alert.
The defenses surrounding the compound have proven to be ineffective. A group of mysterious assailants managed to break in and set off an explosion. There is not a single person whose mind is unable to grasp the implications of such a thing.
If it has happened once, i...

I want to take a moment to thank everyone for all their support. It always amazes me how much the patreon has grown. This, quite literally, wouldn't be possible without all of you. Thank you!
Now, here are the week's chapters!

Feng Zhi comes back about an hour after the attack. He says nothing as they tell him what transpired in his absence, yet the way his knuckles whiten tells the whole story.
“It seems we missed quite a bit,” Feng Zhi says once all five members of the Eternal Flame Clan have gathered in a room along with Patr...

Liu Jin and Lu Mei do not leave right away. They stay by the lake for a while, hoping their unguarded presence will draw an attack. It ends up being for naught, leaving the two to enjoy a quiet afternoon, talking about mundane, harmless subjects.
It is... almost pleasant.

Patriarch Wong’s reaction to the news is predictable. Worry and fear with perhaps a little more fear than worry. The possibility of Liu Jin and Bei Hong being attacked had never once crossed Patriarch Wong’s mind. In fact, he had probably hoped the attacks would stop once Feng Zhi arrived, that the presence of t...
