“Let’s go see our Brides,” murmured Ash, wondering just how many of his Alliance this would be. He knew the vast majority of those who had joined his cause were combatants.
The number of support roles were rather limited, though increasing.
Given they were a cultivation based group it had to be expected that...

“Not a damn thing,” Ash muttered from where he was laid out on the ground. He was staring up at Tala from the flat of his back. “I walked for hours. Hours and hours.
“Personally… I didn’t turn ...
2022-02-17 02:51:24 +0000 UTC View Post“I… this was a mistake. I’m not supposed to be here,” said an older man amongst the group Ash had pointed to.
“Most definitely a mistake, but you’re here, and now we’ll find out why,” Ash said, letting his arm drop to his side. “So… who are you, and why are you here? Who told you to be here?”
Ash smiled, placed one fist into the palm of his other hand, and gave the Realm Lord a differential martial salute. While bowing his head to the other man he noted that there was dirt and mud crusted to the sides, soles, and top of the man’s boots.
There was also grass, a twig, and a few leaves in that mix that was ca...
2022-02-15 03:46:16 +0000 UTC View PostAsh looked down the endless line of people.
It seemed to go on all the way into the distance, beyond where he could even see due to the way the boulevard turned slightly as it went along. Heading back up to the palace and away from the gate where Ash had started this review of the people.
Because in the end, there...
2022-02-10 06:20:43 +0000 UTC View Post“First, we need to change the audience,” Ash said and then looked to everyone else present. There were far too many people here to casually question the queen without revealing what they learned.
“I can seal the area with Qi and prevent outsiders from hearing, like Master Li-Yong did,” Locke offered.
“How do you want to enter?” Jia asked in a tired and worn voice.
For the last day they’d been traveling along the road by wave. Moving at an incredible pace that had taken a three day journey on a fast horse, or five with a carriage, and turned it into two days total.
That’d forced Chunhua and Jia to swap ...
2022-02-05 03:40:41 +0000 UTC View PostAsh had left the meeting hall shortly afterward and proceeded to make his way to the royal mansion. Given it’s size it was hard to miss it regardless of where you were on the royal family grounds.
To the point that he hadn’t needed to ask Locke for assistance and left her to her work. He knew that she was diligently...
2022-02-02 17:15:18 +0000 UTC View PostHello!
Last week was my author-versary.
January 21, 2016, I released Otherlife Dreams. Weird to think it's only been 6 years, but here we are. 
Kinda a fun and amazing ride.
Next book release, which looks like March 7th bec...
2022-01-31 21:19:40 +0000 UTC View PostFinding Jia and Hou proved to be somewhat difficult.
They’d apparently ended up running into Xing city proper and were now somewhere in the streets. Dodging city guards and cultivators alike.
There wasn’t anything he could do to catch up to them, they were well and truly out of his sight.
Ju and the crow...

Ash finally felt some weight lift off his shoulders.
He’d managed to put the brakes on everything and the worst possible situations had been dodged. Ash woul...
2022-01-26 05:11:20 +0000 UTC View PostThe man laughed at Biyu’s words and then brought his hands back into his chest. Qi began to gather between his palms and bubble up out of his hands.
“Emperor’s s—”
Biyu glided toward the man and punched him in the jaw. Her body lightly spun with the blow, and then she turned back the other way, throwing ...
2022-01-21 00:38:16 +0000 UTC View PostAsh wasn’t sure what to do with himself this morning.
Sitting in the antechamber outside of Ju’s bedroom, he was waiting for her to appear. He’d woken up before her and left, not wanting to linger in her bed any longer.
While he’d slept with her and committed himself, his clan, and his alliance into this m...
2022-01-18 21:14:53 +0000 UTC View PostEveryone had decided that Ash and Jia would be the only ones to meet with the auction house representative. Jia would be able to effectively act as his second in regards to the Sheng alliance, as well as a cultivator wife.
In a situation that involved a legal marriage to a citizen, she would be an idea candidate to come...
2022-01-15 03:07:14 +0000 UTC View PostAsh swallowed the half chewed up pear and looked to the attendant.
“Why is someone allowed in here?” Ash asked, his brain rapidly catching up to the situation. “Does the auction house hold that little regard for the anonymity of their clientèle? I thought this was meant to be a safe place?”
“I do what I...
2022-01-13 06:49:23 +0000 UTC View PostSorry for the delay in chapters.
Was diagnosed with Diabetes 2 last week.
Fun.
I've spent the last week trying to figure things out and not just be absolutely sick.
Should be good moving forward again.
Reaching the auction house Ash went straight for the anonymous entrance. He’d be able to slip in, blend in, and become indiscernible from anyone else.
A woman who looked to be in her twenties was standing not too far off. She was keeping herself directly in the center of what would be the VIP booths.
Likely wher...

Thank you to whoever pushed it through so quickly :smile:
Feel free to drop me a line quietly for me to thank you personally. lol.
Get'er here and share it everywhere in every group!
“Uh… well… whats your goal?” Ash asked, not looking away.
“Kill them all. Exterminate Wraiths. All of them,” Locke said simply with a shrug of her shoulders. “That’s it. I want them all gone. Every single one.”
“Oh. Right. Ah… okay,” said Ash, feeling like he hadn’t asked the right questi...
2021-12-28 05:40:00 +0000 UTC View PostFar nodded her head slowly once Jia finished speaking.
“I think I understand,” she said with a faint smile and then looked to Ash. “It seems you’ve been very busy my son.”
“Yes, yes he has,” agreed Chunhua.
“Aiiiya… I… it’s all so much,” Duyi said with a sigh followed by a chuckle. ...
2021-12-26 04:22:55 +0000 UTC View PostCrossing the gates of Xing city, Ash felt like something was different.
When he’d left was he considered home last time, he was without power, backing, or influence.
He had some money from selling transference papers at the auction, but that’d been it. There was nothing that set him apart from most of city’s...
