Shen Zhou had never known the meaning of submission, especially when the person asking was Chu Xuan. If he were to admit it now, it would be like eagerly presenting his deeds, wagging his tail and begging for pity. So, he remained silent, glaring coldly at the other man, looking every bit like a demonic cultivator not to be trifled with. That is, until Chu Xuan said, "Stop shaking your ears." Shen Zhou: "……?" Then, the other man glanced behind him: "Where is your tail?" If his injuries…- 111.5 K • Ongoing
- Shen Zhou fainted.... It is unknown how much time passed before his consciousness began to return. It was quiet all around, with what seemed to be the sound of dripping water, though he couldn't tell from where. He was lying on hard, cold stone, and his wounds burned like fire. He could feel nothing else; his five senses were as weak and muddled as they had been that day, making it impossible to distinguish anything clearly. ...There seemed to be someone beside him. Something very bitter was…

- The night on Xiaoyin Peak was also beautiful, utterly silent save for the ceaseless chirping of crickets. None of this mattered to Shen Zhou. The wind that blew over was not cool; it carried the moisture of the sea of flowers on the mountainside, clinging to him like a stuffy spiderweb, making the ordeal even more agonizing. He waited on the mountaintop for an entire night. The next morning, the residence became lively again. Lu Buzhu chased after Lu Ye, coaxing him to wash up and get dressed. Xie…

- Shen Zhou gathered the puppets that were wandering outside and counted them again. There were five in total, but one was missing. And the one missing was the very first, most special one he had ever made. Shen Zhou frowned. The other puppets only performed simple tasks according to his instructions, like roaming within the Myriad Bones Grotto, reporting back when they found a break in the seal, avoiding Chu Xuan, and so on. But that one was different. In that puppet's heart, he had placed a…

- The little paper man ran out again, climbing onto his shoulder. Xie Xianqing poked it curiously. "What's this?" "My sword." Chu Xuan grabbed his wrist and moved his hand away. A sword cultivator's sword was not to be touched lightly by others, especially not casually in front of its master. It was highly impolite. The little paper man nodded, leaped up, and with a "swoosh," folded itself a few times, turning into a palm-sized paper sword. Xie Xianqing: "..." All this time, he had…

- Crimson blood seeped across the white robes, like the flowers that covered the slopes of Lesser Hermit Peak. A sound came from the doorway. Chu Xuan stood there, hair disheveled and in a complete mess. He stared blankly at the sword buried in Lu Buzhuo's chest. His gaze trembled, sweeping over the familiar pattern on the hilt, and in an instant, it went vacant. Xie Xianqing followed close behind into the room and sucked in a cold breath. After that, everything descended into…

- "It's all gone," Shen Zhou said calmly, wiping his mouth. "You're not allowed to go out tonight. I'm going to dual-cultivate with Lu Buzhuo." "Lu Buzhuo": "..." "Lu Buzhuo" was incredulous. "What kind of madness has gotten into you? Are you backing out at the last minute?" Shen Zhou said nothing, licking his lips. He tasted a lingering trace of bamboo fragrance, and his wolf ears perked up again. "Go back," he said, his words muffled. "I... I need to think it…

- The candle flame flickered, and the shadow on the wall swayed a few times. "Lu Buzhu" calmly finished the full cup of doctored tea and was about to pour another when his hand was stopped. "What are you drinking?" the other's tone was hostile. "To stay a little longer, of course." "Get back inside." "So fierce." "Lu Buzhu" smiled and reached out his other hand, gently covering the back of Shen Zhou's. "What, you want to call him out and tell him Sect Master Chu is planning to seal…

- Lu Buzhu was completely oblivious and even had the leisure to speak with Xie Xianqing. "Where did Chu Xuan go?" Xie Xianqing pulled his hand back and kicked the porcelain shards aside. He wanted to warn him that his half-demon was acting strangely, but then decided it would be a waste of breath. So he just answered, "A new pastry shop opened in the west of the city. Chu Xuan said he was going to check it out and hasn't come back yet." "Hm." Lu Buzhu paused, then added casually, "Can you…

- For a long while, Shen Zhou tilted his head and stared at him. The spot on his finger, scraped raw by the silver clasp, throbbed faintly. His already foul mood grew even more violent, his eyes turning astonishingly dark. "But last time you told me Lu Buzhu knew everything, that he remembered every single detail clearly," he said, tilting a wolf ear, his voice soft. "Forgot so soon?" "Lu Buzhu": "..." Why did this little wolf cub seem a bit off? But having managed to get out, he…
