This one is shorter than usual, but I've yet to edit the next chapter and see if I can abridge them. We'll see. Also, if anything doesn't make sense, please ask about it. I was just talking in discord about how I tend to forget to explain things that are super obvious to me, because I don't realize they need explaining. That's why a lot of my 'hints' and foreshadowing falls flat, because its so vague I'm the only one that can pick up on it, which is difficult to gauge well. Something to work ...

Burying my face in Mama Bun’s soft, silken fur, I sullenly ignore whatever Monk Happy is trying to say. It just takes too much effort to parse through his words, probably because he’s almost always smiling. His body l...

Two emotions which rarely went hand in hand, but this was what Goujian felt as his sword scythed through Nian Zu’s neck, dealing a killing blow to a Colonel General with his opening move, one dealt moments after his al...

Sorry for late chapter. I had this mostly written, but in Yan's PoV, and i just didn't like it much.

Hopefully, tmorrows chapter will be on time and i'll be back up to +5 by err... sunday? yea, sunday. Sorry for the delay, and thanks for reading! Hope yall enjoy. Peace.

I'm currently aiming to have 661 written and released on jan 5th. Probably a rough, unedited version, but I'll try to have edited versions done right after, once you all have had a chance to comb through my most obvious and humiliating mistakes. For 3rd Grade Patreons, this means you'll get 661 on the 14th, and RR will get it on the 17th. I'm just laying this all out here to motivate me, because if I don't, I'll drag my heels and laze about.
That's all. I should warn yo...
