The arena was set. The battle lines were drawn. The Puppet lightning Sect’s leadership would be determined, and the losers - the ones who survived - would be exiled. It was a harsh solution to their conflict, but a necessary one give the size and importance of the ...

It did not take long for news of the conflict to spread throughout the entire Puppet Lightning Region. The Puppet Lightning Sect, which had recently risen to power, had fractured, and was on the verge of a civil war.
Many organizations, sects, and clans began...

Cha Ming opened his eyes to a room filled with violet lightning. Now that the puppet lightning soul was restrained, he was now in full control of his body. Despite the large amount of energy that had blasted through his body to serve as a conduit into his spiritual s...
2022-11-23 06:42:52 +0000 UTC View PostSuper sorry about the delay. There are some personal matters that came up, and that I'm in the middle of resolving. Nothing too big, just a huge drain on my time and energy.
There will be 3 chapters this week. This one's extra long, but since I'm late posting I'll put up the next one right ...

Meetings, no matter the setting, were controversial at best, in that they were necessary to iron out details but a horrendous waste of time. Huxian tried to avoid meetings, but in times of war, it was hard to say no; a single missed meeting might result in hundreds o...

Cha Ming returned to wine house after the exchange, and Silent Storm, knowing he’d taken advantage of Cha Ming in their exchange, poured him drinks on the house for the rest of the night. Silence was the main course of the evening, despite the heavy crowd.

2022-10-26 11:59:02 +0000 UTC View PostVPN is finally working again, so I'm going to upload all the chapters for the rest of the month as scheduled releases. There are 4, including this one, to make up for the fact that I deleted the prologue and will convert it to an epilogue.

Also, I'm going to be shifting the prologue I posted earlier to the end of the book (with modifications). Apologies for the confusion. In hindsight, makes for a much better cliffhanger epilogue than a prologue. As for the Yama bit, I'll include it at the end (unmodified) as ...

The Clear Sky World had never stopped growing ever since its merger with his own inner world. And as the only landmass that could accommodate life in the Clear Sky World, the Jade Moon Demiplane had grown to several times its original size.

It was an hour past sunset in Soaring City, and already, the populace was hard at work. Not just the working men and women, but children also. The city had barely survived the recent fiend outbreak, and all free hands were needed to clear the rubble and rebuild.

On the Chasewind Plane, there exists a saying: wind is freedom, blood is life, and lightning is a cage. Though he wasn’t sure about the last two parts, Cha Ming agreed with the first. Wind was freedom, and with a pair of wings, the possibilities were endle...

It took a bit longer than I expected to edit this one, but we're in business. One of three chapters this week. How many total this month will depend on how many words I add or subtract in the third draft.
For those of you waiting for Book 16's epub/mobi, I'll be posting it shortly. 2022-10-04 07:42:28 +0000 UTC View Post
Hey Everyone,
My apologies on the lack of communication. As many of you might know, I currently live in China. Because of the national holiday, my VPN didn't work, which meant that I couldn't connect to Patreon, Discord, emails, etc.

Two weeks after the start of the fiend outbreak, shortly after the last of the fiends were slain, a wind blew across the Chasewind Plane. To most, it was just a normal wind, the kind you saw every day. But to those in the law-stitching realm...
