The servant was surprised. Suma Fen was alone and did not eat meat, yet her order was so abundant and meaty. But he didn't care about that. What mattered to the waiter was that Suma Fen paid and tipped well.

Suma Fen smiled while waiting for the restaurant staff to prepare the dishes. She then heard footsteps and lively conversation coming from the stairs. When Suma Fen turned around, she heard someone calling, "Brother Fen!"

Three figures dashed towards Suma Fen, bumped into her, and then embraced each other.

"Niyadi..." "Hattauda..." "Tan Yuwen..."

Suma Fen was moved when two of her friends from the Judade race and one from the human race embraced her warmly, full of friendship. It felt like it had been a long time since they had met, and naturally, this made their emotions overflow.

    Tearun was shocked beyond comprehension. This is his first experience with such phenomenon, decades of combat providing no preparation.Tearun could have sworn he saw the pale faced young man smile subtly. A very strange smile curved lips, knowing and mocking. However, Tearun ignored the mocking smile on the young man's face with effort. He focused on beheading the young man to complete kill, determination renewed."What?" The question burst forth.Tearun was shocked when he saw with his own eyes impossibility manifest. His silver axe had missed the young man's neck completely, even though it was so close to contact. Physics denied, trajectory altered without visible cause."Once again!" Desperation colored the words.Tearun maneuvered with his Silver Light Axe in expert motion. His hand twisted with practiced skill, and the axe regained its stability after initially veering off course mysteriously. Control reasserted through force of will."This time you're dead for sure!" Certainty

    The night was dark with oppressive blackness, the moon was not shining through heavy clouds. A misty fog covered the trail of stars in the sky of the Ancient City, capital of Duanxin Kingdom. Visibility was reduced to mere meters, atmosphere heavy with supernatural dread.At that moment, on the Willow Bridge spanning dark waters, Mingxia stood in utter fear. She felt as if she were suffocating with each shallow breath, as if the approaching terrifying figure had sealed her power with dark magic. She was unable to move or scream despite desperate mental commands, body betraying her will."I'm going to die!" Mingxia mourned her fate bitterly with despair overwhelming. Her eyes welled with tears that streamed down pale cheeks as she watched the horned creature approach.

Deep in meditation, he regulated his breathing and conserved energy for night ahead.As night fell when the Moon was still visible on the horizon, an amazing event occurred with timing precise. Its faint glow and halo around it provided minimal illumination, shadows deepening everywhere.At the back of the Moonlight Mansion in the service area, a young man dressed in white appeared. He wore a black coat complete with a hood that concealed his features, walking quickly in a quiet alley near the mansion. Movement was silent, footsteps making no sound on cobblestones.Not long after his departure from the alley, from within the quiet passage another figure appeared. Dressed all in black from head to toe, he walked quickly and even began climbing towards the sky. Towards the horizon he ascended, defying gravity through cultivation technique.This ability can only be performed by high level Dao practitioners with sufficient power

  • Wux Building Enterprises – Part I

    The bustle and life of the Ancient City during the day was vastly different from that at night. Guo Jiang observed the city's life as the sun shone brightly overhead, casting long shadows. There was no trace of the ominous aura he had felt when he arrived the night before, darkness banished by daylight.The streets are currently crowded with various horse drawn vehicles and spiritual animals carrying goods. All levels of society were busy with their activities, especially around trading areas where merchants hawked wares. The energy was palpable, commerce flowing like river current.However, one building caught Guo Jiang's attention with its imposing presence. It had a sturdy structure and reached five floors into sky, dominating the skyline. The architecture spoke of wealth and power consolidated."Wux Building and Enterprises!" Guo Jiang read the large signboard on the fifth floor of the building with interest. "Isn't this the Wux Clan Building? Well, this clan has really flourished

    Sitting on a soft mahogany chair covered with thick cushions that cradled him, Guo Jiang enjoyed the service of the nobles offered there. Tea steamed, dishes arrived with perfect timing.The coachman Guo Jiang hired also enjoyed the special service with gratitude. His room had been comfortable, treatment exceeding expectations for hired driver.While enjoying hot Hong Cha and goose liver with steamed buns that melted, Guo Jiang began to dig up information from Cui Cheng. At that time, it was 9 a.m. in morning sunlight, or according to Cui Cheng the Si Period. The time when snakes emerge from their nests to hunt, auspicious hour for discovery."Manager Cui, there is one thing I have been wanting to ask since last night." Curiosity demanded answers."Just say it young master, anything you wish to know." Permission granted freely.When Guo Jiang questioned Manager Cui with casual tone, his sensitive ears as a practitioner noted something. His cultivation in the early Dao realm called Kai

  • The Emerald's Authority.

    With a condescending expression twisting his features, Wuying said with venom. "Words without proof, it's just mere gossip from a hired driver! I won't believe that this young man has enough money to stay in the best room in our Moonlight Mansion!" The servant put on a haughty face, arms crossed.Guo Jiang didn't let these demeaning words bother him in the slightest. He remained calm like still water, expression unchanged."How much does it cost to stay in the best room at Moonlight Mansion?" Guo Jiang asked casually with mild curiosity. The question was simple, direct.Still maintaining a sneering expression of superiority, Wuying replied lazily with deliberate slowness. "One thousand mid grade Energy Stones, and they must be paid in advance!" His face was full of challenge, certain of victory. "Do you have that much money on your person?"Guo Jiang then took out a green gemstone the size of an adult's big toe from his pouch. The green gemstone was an Emerald of exceptional quality,
