Updates and a slight delay.

Hey everyone,

I need to get real with you all for a moment. Autumn vacation is just around the corner, and while that does free up some of my time for writing, I’m juggling quite a bit right now with the relaunch and everything else in life, especially moving countries and university commitments.

Here's where it gets tricky: while reviewing and editing chapters 71 through 75, I uncovered a massive plothole that can't be ignored, especially when considering the yet-to-be-publishe...

Chapter 75 - No use crying

I am only posting a single chapter this week. I have chapter 76 written but wholly unedited (not even the Grammarly pass!). I cannot bear to post that. Next week, I will do a 3 chapter release. I was also quite pressed with both my unending assignments and prepping for the Dao of the Web relaunch.

....I also posted the smut chapter on Royalroad today... O'gawd.

Chapter 74 - Too many heads ain't better than one

“And then what happened?” Leady asked as he sprang away from the incoming corrupted art, using one of the branches of a tall mangrove tree as a springboard.

Three cultists came falling from above, their sword-like grafts aimed straight at him. But Leady spun his body at the last moment and do...

Chapter 73 - The princess plots a plan!

Reminder: Or Royalroad, the next release will be the last regular release before the rewrite of the story is launched. I announced this a few chapters ago, and most of the feedback I received was positive, with some people literally dying out of jubilation that I will finally, indeed, use English terms rather than Chinese ones. Patreon chapters will continue to update at a rate of 2 chapters/week (unless life happens). But the old Ro...

The stink burnt his lungs. Black smoke rose from his ears and nose, and Gangbao keeled over. He opened his mouth to scream, but no sound came out.

“Ugh.” The boy clutched his throat. The stench was unbearable, the pain was not. The force of his hand made him collapse further onto ...

Chapter 71 - Mission start!

Author's Note: I tried. I really tried to get the two chapters out by today, and I have managed to write more than 4k words this week. I squeezed them out to be precise. But yeah.... These are not as polished. If you notice anything different from normal chapters, please let me know. I will update this chapter and chapter 72 once I have a bit more time. The academic fair is REALLY interesting, and the mandatory participation isn't so bad. If only it didn't take up so much of my time.... haizz...

Sorry about some bad editing on the last chapter

I had two versions of the previous chapter (chapter 70) and I did not edit it properly. I updated it with the proper version now. Long story short, the story changed a bit. If you want, you can reread it. It should flow way better now.

Chao could barely keep his mind awake. The blast had catapulted him off the earth, his seared flesh impacting with the canopy above, then the dusty ground below, causing immense pain and hurt. His body was charred all over, blood and pus oozing out through the white cracks in his cracked skin, and his vision was blurred and unstead...

He let go of the vine and jumped to the right, his sword hand tossing the sword up and, in the next moment, he grabbed the adjacent vine three feet away. He caught the sword with his free left hand, bringing it down on the last fiend, chopping it vertically. ...

Chao couldn’t help but shake his head. Ziyou Ling had slapped him with all her Origin qi behind it. It hurt, but the humour in the madlander boy’s action hurt even more, for he was weak and still dared monopolise the yin that was rightfully Chao’s!

Chao liked Ziyou Yung, he truly did. That’s exactly why he did not wa...

Asking for Opinions:

Hey guys. In case you did not know, I also do non-fiction writing and Youtube'ing on the side. I have a Substack newsletter for all the content that I make, and I was wondering if it would be alright for me to add you guys there?

Patreon will still be the subscription site of choice, for fiction. But for non-fiction, I want to share my Substack with you.

Looking forward to your comments!
