Chapter 9: Night Snow Just Cleared It had snowed lightly just before dawn. When Fang Jingyu returned to Qingyuan Alley, the streets were already covered in a soft, white blanket—like a sheet of clean rice paper. Several housemaids and servants in padded jackets were out front sweeping the snow. When they saw Fang Jingyu return, their faces lit up with warm familiarity and they called out: “Hey, Jingyu!

- Chapter 8: A Finger Splits the Darkness In the blink of an eye, Chu Kuang flung a handful of incense ash from the brazier, snuffing out the oil lamps in the room.

My enemies stretch across mountains and seas—they already form a long, winding list! And you claim you’re the one who can kill me…

- Chapter 15 – Snow’s Wrath, Ice’s Hunger After returning from Zhenhai Pass, Fang Jingyu walked slowly back toward Qingyuan Alley. It had been half a month since the Yu Yin Guard summoned him to the training grounds, and only now did a belated sense of worry rise in his heart. What had become of his home in his absence?

- Chapter 14 – The Vipashyin Blade In front of the training ground, dust choked the dim daylight. Fang Jingyu stood with his pommel-guarded sword in hand, gazing into the distance. Yellow sand drifted endlessly; city towers loomed, rough and worn. In the darkened sky, a peregrine falcon cut through the stormy wind like a blade. All at once, Fang Jingyu thought of the slave imprisoned in his courtyard. That man had hawk-like, razor-sharp eyes. The menace in his bearing, paired with unexpectedly…

The boss said so, so it must be!” Judy, under Shen Hechuan’s deadly gaze, had her soul almost leave her body. She put on a robotic smile and said, “Of course it was a company benefit! Our company has great benefits. I’ll make sure to give Xiao Man my Lego too!” Qiao Le: “…” Now she’s just babbling. “I’ll leave you two to cultivate your feelings, hahahaha,” Judy quickly…- 182.5 K • Completed
Aeryl wasn’t even from the North—he was a Southerner. Though they shared a common imperial language across the Empire, the people were ethnically and linguistically different. Naturally, regional bias was unavoidable. It was well-known that the people of the Grand Duchy were closed off toward outsiders and tightly bonded among themselves. Aeryl had already experienced this firsthand when he opened a clinic in the Edge of the World Village. Still, he had hoped things might be different this…- 279.4 K • Completed

Yudit tucked the curtain into his arms and ran back toward them. Just as he and Khalid were about six paces apart, the ceiling shook violently, sending embers cascading down. Several large sparks landed on Yudit, and broken bricks struck his shoulder and calf. The impact was too much—he stumbled and rolled across the floor. “Yudit!” “Your Highness!” Yudit raised a hand from where he had fallen, signaling that he was fine. Then, limping, he approached them. “This should be enough…- 396.9 K • Completed
- Norton exhaled slowly and said, "Seven, starting tomorrow, you’ll come here every day. I’ll hand over these identities to you in batches." He paused, then suddenly pressed the gun hard against Mo Zimu’s forehead, his tone turning vicious. "But if you dare play any tricks…" "This is Mammon, isn’t it?" Mo Zimu raised his hands slightly in a gesture of surrender. "It’s surrounded by water, with nowhere to run. You need my help to get out, and, conveniently, I need yours too." Norton’s thin…

- Just as he was about to call out to Tom, Mo Zimu yelped and fell to the ground. His forward momentum knocking Berrick back several steps. Berrick caught himself by grabbing another prisoner’s arm, his face twisting in fury. Regaining his balance, he stomped on Mo Zimu's shoulder. "You did that on purpose!" He growled viciously.
