"Her heart was too soft for this world. She cared too much to be a true cultivator. All She'll ever amount to being is a single Blade of Grass. That is what they once said with derision, when they spoke of the Young Mistress of the Verdant Blade Sect.

A bit of a sad story, this one.
=================================
Liling was nervous. Hellishly nervous, as they walked towards Hong Yaowu so that she could meet San’s family for the first time. She had never really had a family, save for her mother, and the woman was insane. Always...

It started off innocently enough, Lin Bao reflected.
“These will be good jobs to get to know your superiors and to have them think favourably of you. I know you’re both competent men, Lin Bao, Hong San, else I would not have made the recommendation.” Their kindly Senior smiled at them...

It was on the fourteenth day of the month of the plum when Hong Xiansan, (though most just called him San) Third Son of the 76th Hong Xian of Hong Yaowu, did leave the village of his birth to receive an education in the city. It was his Honourable father’s compensation for not being the one to ...

It was said by the few who visited the Grand Ravine that to gaze into the depths of that canyon was to gaze upon the majesty of the earth.
Over a thousand Li long, the Grand Ravine’s deepest point descended five Li into the earth; It had a hundred thousand off-shoots and tunnels within it...

Okay: the Epilogue seemed to be confusing, and I can se how it wasn't as good as it could have been, and so I reworked it. Its mostly the same, but it now had a lot of clarifications in it. Thank you for bearing with it!

Volume Illustrations:
And now, for the second half of Volume 2, also called volume 3. I need to fix my numbering of the volumes. That said vol 3 goes from v2 c58 to the end of Vol2, containing the tournament and the mail delivery.

The first day after Bi De, Gramps, Rizzo and Yun Ren left was a quiet, contemplative day. Our numbers had been cut in half. Me, Meimei, Little D, Gou Ren, Chunky, Peppa, Washy, Bowu, Noodle and Babe were the only ones left—Biyu having also gone with Xiulan back south, and it felt just a little ...

I had always kind of thought of oaths as cheesy things. They sounded good in writing, or looked nice in a movie with swelling music, and flowery descriptions, but witnessing one in real life would have seemed lacking.
Of course, I was proven completely and utterly wrong. Xiulan’s speech w...

Breakfast most days was a calm affair; people chatted in low voices or helped make food, still shaking off sleep.
Even Little D was mostly quiet. My little bean was definitely a morning person, and Big D’s crows always put him in a good mood. It was later in the day when he would get fuss...

Yin sat on the top of the house, her body soaking in the rays of the sun.

Delun had needed to be alone after the secrets of his ancestors had been revealed to him, and Xiulan couldn’t blame him. It truly was an earth shaking revelation.
In the end, they had all retired.

If one asked Delun how he thought he would be spending his time, he could have answered perhaps with Tigu or cultivating. Well, he had done plenty of the former already… but out of everything on this strange farm... He hadn’t expected this.

Fa Bi De, First Disciple of Fa Ram, stood upon one of the Great Pillars. He carefully preened a feather back into place, his foot resting upon his one ‘la cross’ stick. It was small and could be held in his beak— his Master never spared any effort to make sure all could participate...

2 years of BOC. Man, it feels simultaneously longer and shorter.

Biyu hummed to herself as the cart she was in ran smoothly down the road with not a single bump to jostle it. Today had been quite enjoyable so far. She got to give Mr. Chun Ke a nice looking neck-tie, folded into a triangle. It was honestly a bit hard to make it look good with how monstrously th...
