Chapter 17: The Inner Abyss

Ye Feng looked around his room, but saw no one. His eyes narrowed in suspicion. "If this is a joke, just know it's not funny."

The voice echoed inside his skull once more. "Why don't you come in, and let's have a chat?"

Before Ye Feng could react, his consciousness was violently yanked inward. Everything went pitch black. "What the hell?!"

The darkness slowly faded, revealing an unfamiliar, surreal landscape. It was a desolate island entirely isolated by endless, sta

  • The Trapped Fox

    Chapter 32: The Trapped FoxI knew something was wrong, Ye Feng thought, his instincts screaming."Leave no one alive!" Lin Batian barked coldly.Standing near the rear of the chamber, Lin Batian rested his hands behind his back as his men surged forward. Steel clashed against steel, accompanied by desperate roars and agonizing screams echoing through the tight underground vault.Fight them head-on? I'm not that stupid, Ye Feng reasoned, assessing the tactical layout in a split second. They outnumber us five to one, and the escape route is narrow. We're cornered. If we want to get out, we need a power move.Ye Feng scanned the room, his eyes landing on the rows of flickering wall torches illuminating the damp stone walls. In a flash, the Pulsar Blade extended smoothly from his wrist. With a single, sweeping arc of his arm, Ye Feng severed every torch line in the chamber!Pitch darkness engulfed the room in an instant."Follow me if you want to live!" Ye Feng shouted, the Pulsar Blade

  • Sacrificial Pawns

    Chapter 32: Sacrificial PawnsBack inside Ye Yue’s private chambers, she paced back and forth across the carpeted floor, her face flushed with pure indignation."Master, can you believe the utter rubbish they were spewing in there?!" Ye Yue vented, her hands shaking. "I am absolutely certain they framed Aunty Xue and Ye Feng! Ever since that witch Ye Shuyin became the Patriarch's wife, my uncle hasn't been in his right mind. He’s always targeted that mother and son!"Bai Ruoshi sat calmly at the tea table, blowing softly over her cup. "The deed is already done, Yue'er. Rather than wasting your energy getting angry over what has already happened, you should channel that focus into your cultivation."Ye Yue sank onto the edge of her bed, looking up with frustrated eyes. "But Master—!""Wake up to reality," Bai Ruoshi interrupted, setting her teacup down with a sharp click. "The entire sect has poured massive resources into you with the sole hope that you can join the Imperial Guard. If

  • Shadows in the Hall

    Chapter 31: Shadows in the HallMinutes later, Ye Feng snuck into line with the passing sentinels. They entered the main residence of the Ye Clan, splitting into two orderly rows facing each other down the grand entryway.A grand carriage drew to a halt in front of the estate gates.Could it be the person the guard was talking about? Ye Feng wondered behind his altered face.The door swung open, and stepping down from the carriage were Ye Yue and a white-robed woman, Elder Bai Ruoshi.The moment they crossed the threshold, the guards bowed in unison, their voices echoing through the courtyard: "Welcome home, Lady Ye Yue!"Ye Feng scoffed in his mind. Guess this is the special treatment you get when you're born with exceptional talent.A group of maids bowed deeply before Ye Yue. "This way, Lady Ye Yue." She was quickly escorted down the main hall.Now that everyone's attention is focused on Ye Yue, I'd better scout the area while I have the opportunity, Ye Feng thought, attempting to

  • The Face of a Stranger

    Chapter 29: The Face of a StrangerBack in Ye Feng's courtyard, he looked down at the grime and ash covering his clothes. "Guess we need to go take a bath."Mo Qingxue wiped a speck of dust off her sleeve. "Yeah, true.""We'll meet here in twenty minutes," Ye Feng said. "I've got something important to discuss with you."Twenty minutes later, Mo Qingxue walked into the main room, only to freeze instantly. Ye Feng was still half-dressed, pulling his inner tunic over his bare chest. Awkward silence filled the room as she stared at him for a solid moment, her mind going blank.Ye Feng looked up, scratching his head nervously. "Oh, sorry! I'm not ready yet. Guess the bath was just too good.""Umm... umm, okay! I'll come back later!" she squeaked out, her face remaining forcedly calm even as a deep crimson blush flushed across her cheeks. She quickly turned on her heel and hurried out.A few minutes later, Ye Feng stepped out into the courtyard. He saw Mo Qingxue sitting at a stone table u

  • Ashes of Wealth

    Chapter 28: Ashes of Wealth"What the hell is this?" Ye Feng muttered, holding up a dusty, ancient leather-bound book. He blew a heavy breath across the cover, coughing as a thick cloud of dust billowed into his face."Uhh, what's that?" Mo Qingxue asked, walking over to him."That's what I'm trying to confirm," Ye Feng said, wiping the grime from the cover. "Myriad Faces Art."He flipped open the yellowed pages, scanning the dense text written inside. A dark smile slowly spread across his face. "Yes... perfect.""What is it?" Mo Qingxue asked."It's exactly what we needed," Ye Feng said, handing the book to her. "Guess the next phase of my plan will be much easier than I expected. See for yourself."Mo Qingxue opened the manual, reading the introductory lines in her mind: ‘With this technique, anyone can become anybody. If one masters this art, they become more authentic than the original. Altering facial features, shifting bone structure, and mimicking spiritual aura are limited onl

  • Raid on the Vault

    Chapter 27: Raid on the VaultDays went by in the county. Markets shut down completely, and the streets became practically deserted. No civilian wanted to step outside only to be written off as collateral damage in the violent conflict brewing between the two major factions. Both clans had dispatched teams of armed men across the district, butchering rival members and razing each other's businesses to the ground.Unknown to either side, a snake lurked in the dark, patiently waiting for its moment to strike.Night fell over the county. Ye Feng and Mo Qingxue, both wearing dark masks, stood hidden near an old, dilapidated alleyway.Mo Qingxue looked around the quiet street. "You still haven't told me what we are doing here.""I told you," Ye Feng replied calmly, pointing toward a rundown, ancient structure down the road. "We're going to level the playing field. See that crappy old house?"Mo Qingxue glanced at the rotting wooden building. "Yes."Ye Feng smirked beneath his ink mask. "Th
