      by Aqsa — Chapter 4 Carriages were waiting at the entrance of the secluded village. Most of them were four-seater carriages, each pulled by two Roadloaders instead of horses. Roadloaders, which looked similar to ostriches, were the primary means of transportation in the Kingdom of Mandarin. They were divided into ground types, which were good at running, and aerial types, which were good at flying. There were also Roadloaders that could both run and fly, but I heard they were quite rare. I followed Lus…

      by Aqsa — Chapter 3 “Um… Since your clothes are still in that state, it would be better to cover yourself with the cloak for now.” 'Oh, right!' I was startled and quickly covered my chest with the cloak. 'What an embarrassment…' When I realized that he was looking at me as well, I was so embarrassed and mortified that I couldn't raise my head. “How are you feeling?” His voice was incredibly sweet, gentle, and captivating. “I-I think I'm okay.” I felt my cheeks grow slightly…

      by Aqsa — Chapter 2 “……!” My heart sank once again at the shocking answer. “T-The k-knights are here? W-What happened to the other secluded villages?” “Yeah. They said all the women in the other secluded villages have already been killed. Apparently, the twenty women left here are the last ones……” A chill ran down my spine. If the other secluded villages had already been dealt with, that meant the one woman who would survive and be subjected to torment was…

      by Aqsa — Chapter 10   A Sudden Fortune Overnight As night fell, the area in front of the Dingseong Auction House was so crowded with carriages and people that there was barely room to set foot. It was all because of a single notice posted that afternoon, which had drawn out all the wealthy families of Jianglin City. “I heard about the Body-Tempering Powder being auctioned today. They say it was made directly by a Qi Refiner?” “It may not be as good as a medicinal pill, but apparently it has…

      by Aqsa — Chapter 9  The Iron-Faced Master A month passed. The backyard of Old Man Wu’s tavern was hardly recognizable anymore. Layers of medicinal-herb powder covered the ground, while bottles filled with failed medicinal mixtures were lined up beneath the walls. At the center of it all, Lu Fan slowly drew in a breath. Whoosh. A faint reddish glow bloomed from his chest and spread toward his shoulders and arms along with his breathing. The red energy flowed just beneath his skin before…

      by Aqsa — Chapter 8  A Body That Holds Flames “Hit me with all your strength.” At Lu Haoran’s words, Lu Fan took his stance in the center of the pavilion by the lakeside. His grandfather was an expert at the ninth layer of the Inner Astral Realm. Even if Lu Fan used all his strength, it would be difficult to touch even the hem of his clothes, so there was no reason to hold back. Lu Fan pulled his left foot backward and lowered his waist. Once his breathing settled, his entire body became taut, like…

With a population of approximately 150 million, this land is ruled by Lucleros, the king and a fragment of the Divine who is said to live through eternity and reincarnate endlessly. It is warm and prosperous all year round. Except for one secluded village, where children born with the emblem of the Black Firebird live.

      by Aqsa — Chapter 7  Effort Is a Talent Too The next morning, Lu Fan woke to the sound of hammering. When he opened the door to his detached residence, unfamiliar craftsmen were already filling the courtyard. They were busy tearing down pillars and roof tiles, measuring the dimensions for new furniture, and making all sorts of preparations. “Are you awake?” Lu Hu approached with a bright expression. “I’m having a new bed and desk brought in, and I’m replacing your training stone with a…

      by Aqsa — Chapter 6  The Disciple of the Nine Heavens Sect After leaving the banquet hall, Lu Fan did not immediately return to his private residence. With a bottle of wine in one hand and the leftover food in the other, he walked out through the main gate of the Lu Family estate. Firecrackers celebrating the New Year continued to explode throughout the streets, while lanterns hung outside each household dyed the darkness red. Until just a month ago, Lu Fan had hated days like this. The more people…

      by Aqsa — Chapter 5  Everyone Lowered Their Heads A few days later, the Lu Family estate was bustling with guests from early morning. Red lanterns hung beneath every eave, while drums and gongs rang out incessantly in front of the main gate. Every year, in preparation for the Annual Festival, the Lu Family held a two-day feast. On the final night, only the members of the Lu Family gathered to offer sacrifices to Heaven and Earth and check the cultivation achievements of the younger members. Lu Fan sat…
