My Girlfriend From Turquoise Pond Requests My Help After My Millennium Seclusion Chapter 28
Advertisement
Jiang Lan didn't pay much attention to the demon that suddenly entered.
This demon didn't look weak; it was at late-stage Foundation Establishment.
However, her strength was only considered not weak among the new generation of disciples.
To Kunlun as a whole, it was simply a small animal.
It was normal for the other party to be so flustered.
It was very easy to encounter powerful cultivators here.
There were Golden Core, Essence Soul, and Void Returning cultivators everywhere.
It was normal to encounter immortals as well.
As a demon, it was hard to say what would happen to her.
"Looks like she took a risk to come here, but what for?"
Although Jiang Lan was curious, he didn't dwell on it.
He was here to buy good wine.
"Give, give me a pot of ordinary wine." It was the voice of the demoness.
She stood in front of the counter and handed over a gourd and a spirit stone.
She wrapped the spirit stone very well, as if she was worried about losing it.
Jiang Lan lowered his head, not paying it any mind.
He just waited patiently.
At this moment, another person walked in.
It was another woman. However, when she walked in, she really frightened the demoness at the counter.
It was as if she was naturally suppressed.
It was the might of a dragon.
Jiang Lan immediately sensed it.
"Ao Longyu?"
The moment that person walked in, Jiang Lan knew who it was.
The current Ao Longyu was still stunning. The wound on her right cheek seemed to have disappeared. When he looked at it again, he felt that there were still some faint marks.
As if dissipating them was only temporary.
When Ao Longyu entered, she first glanced at Jiang Lan, then at the demoness.

The demoness's hair stood on end, and she immediately walked out with her wine and her head lowered.
Her body trembled as she walked
It was as if she was afraid that Ao Longyu would suddenly attack her.
In the end, Ao Longyu only watched as the demoness left.
She also walked to the counter.
"A bottle of good wine."
Jiang Lan thought that she would need to wait like him.
But he realized he was wrong.
"Here is your good wine." The youth handed Ao Longyu a bottle of wine.
Jiang Lan was silent.
He felt like he had received differential treatment.
Ao Longyu took the wine and turned to Jiang Lan.
"Junior Brother also wants good wine?"
Jiang Lan immediately stood up and nodded.
"Yes."
Actually, he didn't even know what good wine was.
Since his master said so, he just passed the message on.
"Junior Brother, you'd better tell them a day in advance. That way, the boss would have prepared it before he leaves. Otherwise, you can only wait for him to return," Ao Longyu reminded.
"Many thanks for Senior Sister's reminder." Jiang Lan immediately thanked her.
Now he understood why Ao Longyu was able to obtain the wine immediately.
However, his master did not tell him about this.
However, he could still buy it on the same day, so it wasn't a big problem.
He just had to wait for a while.
He was in no hurry.
With that, Ao Longyu turned around and left.
She had quite an impression of this disciple of the Ninth Summit.
However, the disciples of the Ninth Summit could still descend the mountain?
After what happened six years ago, the disciples of the Ninth Summit stopped participating in many things, as if they wanted to avoid what happened six years ago.

Jiang Lan watched as Ao Longyu left.
Amongst everyone else from the other summits, he probably only knew Ao Longyu's full name.
Of course, he never thought of being familiar with this senior sister. He only needed seclusion.
To sign in peacefully and cultivate in peace.
When he became an immortal, he could then head out more often.
Of course, in the Grand Desolate World, there were many immortals, devils, and gods.
It was still extremely dangerous.
Once he became an Immortal, he would be able to go out often.
It shouldn't be much of a problem.
Thereafter, Jiang Lan ignored everything else.
Instead, he closed his eyes and began to cultivate his temperament.
Soon, it was afternoon.
Jiang Lan sat there waiting and had never moved since.
The youth at the counter looked at Jiang Lan curiously. He felt that this person was different from the others.
He was too quiet.
"Could he have fallen asleep?" The young man was curious.
He looked at Jiang Lan for half the afternoon, but he didn't feel him move or make any sound.
He must have fallen asleep.
"The wine bottle behind you is about to drop." Jiang Lan opened his eyes, looking towards that youth, kindly reminding him.
At this moment, the youngster regained his senses and looked behind.
He realized that there was indeed a wine bottle rocking back and forth, as if it could fall to the ground at any moment.
Without another word, the young man caught the bottle.
"Thank… Thank you.
Oh right, Grandpa should be back soon." After the young man placed the bottle of wine down, he continued,
"Every time I break a wine bottle, Grandpa would come back after a while.
I think the wine bottle is reminding me. "
Jiang Lan nodded slightly.
He felt that it was not reminding this young man but checking to see if he was slacking off instead.
However, it was just a coincidence that he figured this out.
He suddenly had a breakthrough in his temperament.
As long as he had sufficient time to advance to the Essence Soul stage, there shouldn't be much of an issue.
Jiang Lan was very concerned about these things in the Netherworld Cave.
Although his inner demons were far away, he could not relax too much.
He was going against the current. If he did not advance, he would end up retreating.
Not long after, Jiang Lan heard a voice from the back of the inn.
The innkeeper must have returned.
Indeed, an elder walked out from behind the inn.
It was an old man who looked very energetic.
Jiang Lan immediately went to the counter.
"Grandpa, he wants some good wine." At this moment, the young man immediately helped relay Jiang Lan's request.
The old man didn't look at Jiang Lan but at the wine bottle that wasn't broken.

Sword System Academia
2/17 NOTICE: I'm putting this on hiatus, possibly permanently. I didn't want to spam with an "update chapter", so hopefully here and in the story blurb will get enough eyeballs. There are a couple reasons for ending SSA for now. 1) I wrote the next chapter but wasn't happy with it. I've been less and less satisfied with SSA's quality the more I thought about it. Part of the reason is... 2) I am seriously thinking about trying to publish some novels to help pay the bills, since I don't have my other source of income anymore. I have never asked for anything from SSA readers, no money, not even a review or rating. SSA is written for fun to amuse myself, primarily, and I would kind of feel bad actually charging someone money for something as unserious as that. I don't think it is good enough to ask anything in return. To use an analogy from music, SSA is more like a jam session with a bunch of friends. You're just chiling and having fun playing some music. I mean, if you are Mozart or even Eminem, your jam session is good enough to sell, but for an amateur beginner like myself, haha, no. If I want to publish something, I feel like I need to go the proper route of practice and rehearsals, which might be more similar to a classical concert performance. With SSA, I work from worldbuilding notes and a loose outline, but what you are essentially getting is the first draft with lots of so-called pantsing. Pushing out a web novel like this also means it is very difficult to go back and improve things without breaking everything else downstream. I wanted to try this "jamming" approach, as it was a good way to teach me about another aspect of writing, but to move forward, I think I need to hone my "classical" techniques, which emphasize rewriting, or at least, revising outlines. 3) While I intend to try to make $$$, my actual current goal is to "get gud". I've spent a lot of time recently trying to understand the self-publishing industry, and I'm pretty sure I can make some money by using short-term strategies with my current amateur skill level. But I've seen too many authors come and go/burnout, and really, the only way that I think I can enjoy writing and still make money on a long-term basis is to become a better writer. And the next step for me, which I haven't done much before, is to spend more time on rewriting and outlines. That is pretty much antithetical to the way SSA is developing. I've always been kind of 20/80 plotting/pantsing, but I want to spend a lot more time outlining before I even start writing. SSA jam sessions don't really fit my goal anymore. If you're curious about what's next, read on... Among other regrets, I regret not finishing SSA. It's the first story I've dropped, but then again, it's the first web novel I've attempted, so I suppose that's not a surprise. I don't think traditional web novel formats suit me that well. The whole SSA story I had loosely planned (beyond a first book or major arc) is way too large as well. Big story = good for neverending webnovel with Patreons, bad for penniless and fickle writer like me. I am currently outlining a complete trilogy to another story in great detail. I want the story to end concisely, and I also want the chance to really spend a lot of time on the full outline to spot pacing problems, character issues, lost themes, and so on. I'll still share this story on RR. What I intend to do is finish book 1, flash-publish the whole thing here for a few weeks, then publish on the big Zon. Repeat for books 2 and 3. The upcoming story will be about crafting heroes. The backdrop is an isekai-like setting, where elves will summon humans to their world as heroes, but the whole hero crafting business is still in its infancy. The elven mage researchers are figuring out how to imbue heroes with power, while the heroes are trying to figure out how to use the powers that they gain. Humans are the best hero templates because they are blank and have no intrinsic magic. Or at least that what the elves thought. The human MC has his own secrets... There will be some similarities with litrpgs, but I would call it more a progression fantasy or gamelit story. For example, the stats are very low, at least initially. Say we have a stat called Str. Going from Str = 1 to Str = 2 is a huge deal. Also, going from Dex = 0 to Dex = 1 is an even bigger deal. I guess you could call it a "low-stat litrpg", haha. Also, the heroes won't be gaining stats simply by killing things or leveling up. You can't increase stats arbitrarily, either. There will be rules to how stats can increase, and how they work with each other. The elven mages will be figuring out these rules in order to craft stronger and stronger heroes. Some inspiration will be from cultivation magic systems, but there won't be overt cultivation, at least for now. A theme I really want to explore is the idea of interactions. That includes things like hero crafter vs hero, tactics vs strategy, skill synergies, racial interactions (dwarves, elves, etc), and son. Yeah, so hero crafting. I'm super excited about this project and venturing into publishing. If you want to check out the upcoming story, you can follow my RR author profile to see when it drops here. Finally... THANK YOU TO EVERYONE! I'm very sorry that SSA is stopping, but I hope at least some of you will find the next story at least as enjoyable, if not more. Thanks to all the readers who gave SSA a shot. Big hug or solid fistbump to all of you, whichever you prefer! I hope this message is not a downer but an upper, because I am psyched!! -purlcray -------------- BLURB: Talen, youngest Master of the Koroi, makes his way to the Empire's capital to salvage his clan's fate. But the bustling city has few opportunities for the traditionalist. For the old sword clans are fading. With the rise of alchemy, gold can purchase strength that ordinarily took years of training to cultivate. Sword artists, once rare and accomplished, are quickly growing in number, especially among the wealthy noble class. Even with such alchemy, though, no one has advanced to the rank of Grandmaster in countless years. Talen's true dream is to walk the path of a sword artist to the very end while fulfilling his clan duties. And then the Swordgeists return, fabled founders of all sword arts, gods who had touched the world long ago and vanished. These myths turned into reality warn of a coming threat. Alongside this warning, they issue an invitation to the Sword System Academy, a path to power beyond the mortal realm. But first, they will hold an entrance exam... Story notes:Sword System Academia blends elements of western and asian fantasy such as xianxia and litrpg. I took parts from different genres I enjoyed and twisted them into my own creation. There will be an explicit system, both of the litrpg kind and the hard(ish) magic kind, but it is embedded within an academic structure that will develop over the course of the story. This is my attempt to design a unique type of system, the System Academia.
