Chapter 28
“Eh?” asked a puzzled Feng Tianlan .
“The Grade 5 Nurturing Pill is so precious that money alone can’t buy it . There’s a lot of demand but no supply, and I can’t believe you used it on my light whip bruises . If that’s not a waste, I don’t know what is . ” Luo Yunzhu patted her chest and looked at Feng Tianlan tearfully . “I feel like I just swallowed money, not a pill . ”
A Grade 5 Nurturing Pill could easily sell for over five million gold coins at auction . A Grade 9 Pill would have been more than enough to heal her injuries . To think that Feng Tianlan had used a Grade 5 pill on her!
If that wasn’t an excessive waste, what was?
“Is our friendship and your body worth less than a Grade 5 Nurturing Pill?” Feng Tianlan looked at her, amused . It was cute how Luo Yunzhu thought about such things at a time like this .
“Uwaa, Tianlan, I’m really touched . ” Feng Tianlan’s words moved Luo Yunzhu to tears . “I’ve decided, in this life, you’re the one . For my entire life, you will be my best friend forever!”
Feng Tianlan laughed . “Isn’t it too easy to move you? What if I treated you even better? Wouldn’t you want to marry me?”
“Haha, I don’t mind . ” Luo Yunzhu broke into a smile . Although she felt that Tianlan was somewhat different from before, she was still her good friend, and that was all that mattered .
Feng Tianlan chuckled as she stood up . “I’ll come by to see you again tomorrow . Have a good rest . ”
“Okay,” Luo Yunzhu answered, then suddenly looked at her in surprise . “Right, Tianlan, where did the Grade 5 Nurturing Pill come from?”
In Tianlan’s case, even generic healing medications were a luxury, what to speak of a Grade 5 Nurturing Pill . Something was amiss .

“I’ll tell you later . ” Feng Tianlan pouted slightly . Her friend was somewhat dense .
Judging from the fact that Si Mobai had secretly come to her yard yesterday, it was likely that he didn’t want others to know that they were in contact . In the end, she decided to keep her mouth shut .
“Okay,” Luo Yunzhu readily accepted Tianlan’s answer . She asked too many questions .
Feng Tianlan left after offering a few caring words . At the courtyard gate, she met Luo Yunzhu’s servant . She stopped her and asked, “What happened to Yunzhu yesterday when she returned?”
Seeing that it was Feng Tianlan who was asking, the loyal servant became curt and hostile, “Master whipped her good and then grounded her . He now forbids her to see you . ”
“Lady Feng, you are a good-for-nothing shunned by all . I say, can you not bother my young Lady anymore? My young Lady has suffered so much because of you, ever since you were kids . How many beatings has she already taken for you? Even so, she will always run to you after she is beaten up and bring you medication . Even if her own medication were confiscated, she would still find a way to bring it to you . ”
“Because of you, my Lord has gradually distanced himself from my young Lady . What happened yesterday infuriated him greatly . If Luo Yunzhu continues to act so recklessly, he is threatening to promote his concubine to the first wife . When that happens, she can kiss being his only daughter goodbye and forget all about inheriting the academy . ”
“The Lord has issued my Lady a stern final warning . If she continues to see you and fails to advance to the level of a First-stage Spiritualist within a year, he will promote his concubine to the first wife . She will lose all chances of inheriting the Blue Flame Academy . ”

The servant glared at Feng Tianlan indignantly, “Lady Feng, please stay away from my Lady . Jinxes like you should know to stay away from others lest trouble comes to them, especially those who care about you . ”
The maid’s words struck Feng Tianlan’s heart like lightning bolts . While she was shocked, deep down, she felt warm and fuzzy . She never thought that Luo Yunzhu would go to such lengths for her . Although Luo Yunzhu was the younger one, she protected Tianlan like an older sister and never complained about it .
Feng Tianlan clenched her fist . She must become stronger . Not only would she protect them, but she would also help them become more powerful . She would see to it that no one ever dared bully them again .

Tur Briste
A Druid cultivation novel. Borrows concepts from Wuxia and Xianxia but using Druid myth and lore. More on this at the bottom. Crow is son of Maddox, a Druid with an ancient bloodline and a people with a story spanning toward the beginning of time. Cursed, unfated, and a heap of bad luck have brought him only pain and suffering, but nothing will stop him. Nothing can stop him. A son of Maddox doesn’t bow his head. A son of Maddox understands that only a man with roots, with something to lose, will fight until the last drop of blood leaves his body. The Draoidh were once a proud people. They were both respected and hated for their form of righteousness. Power wasn’t something they gained through the might of their arms, but through intelligence. Their fall was all the more disheartening for the weaker cultivators. The tens of thousands of years that followed… chaos reigned. They forced Draoidh until most fled to the lower realms, nearly wiped out and exhausted. They went into hiding and became known as the Druids of the Oak. The Druid Order wasn’t the powerhouse it had been, and only nine of the major clans survived the calamity. Their bloodline weakened, as well as their prestige. Even the remaining clans fought amongst each other. Already on the decline and near extinguished, the Maddox clan can only struggle for survival, but their foundation wasn’t a joke. Weakened, but not weak. The other clans will understand this difference soon enough. Tur Briste, the Shattered Tower, awaits Crow’s ascension. Reaching the upper realms is only the first step in reestablishing the Draoidh. The Druids of the Oak remembered every betrayal and grievance, and they’ll return to power and reclaim what once belonged to them. The upper realms may have forgotten, but the Druid Order has not. Please Note:1) This is harem story. There are only a few chapters with sex, and it’s not a focus of the story. I’ll only add graphic sex if I feel the story needs it, so not gratuitously. Either way, Crow has several women. This is in line with Druid/Celtic history, and harems/reverse harems were an accepted part of their culture. Further, they had open marriages, meaning the man or woman could end their marriage at any time. While it was still a patriarchy, women had almost equal power. They were a very progressive culture. 2) There is a period of a 30-50 chapters where Crow loses the ability to cultivate like a Druid so he adopts an eastern body cultivation method for a while. This is temporary, but some people feel it’s misleading, so I am pointing it out ahead of time. I promise, the Druid stuff comes back, and 90% of the lore/myths/creatures/gods are all related to Druid/Celt/Irish/Scottish history. 3) I use many original names, most of which are in Gaelic or Irish. In the story, I refer to this language as Ancient. I enjoy all kinds of folklore and myths, so I encourage you to google those original names as they arrive. I give some background on them at the end of the chapter in my author’s note. 4) I use Ogham runes a lot, these are like the Druid alphabet, and they based each rune on a sacred tree so they also have symbolism associated with them. Again, feel free to google that too. It’s pretty neat stuff. Quick Translations:Draoidh = DruidTur Briste = Shattered Tower or Broken Tower Release Schedule:As of Oct 1, 2021- 3 chapters released every Sunday (May have up to two bonus chapters)- Side character chapters… this might be bonus chapters I release through the week. So they won’t count toward the 3 chapters on Sunday.- Please understand I work full time, have two kids, and can’t spare as much time as I’d like toward my writing. Maybe in the future I can switch to doing this full time, but for now 3 chapters is a comfortable pace for me. Lastly… I very much appreciate all my readers and thank you for allowing me to entertain you!

8 158Cardinal of Sin
They say sin comes at a horrible price. Or...perhaps I'm misremembering the saying. Regardless, I'm usually inclined to agree with the aforementioned statement. When one is held hostage by their own carnal instincts; never being able to fully control their primitive impulses...Well, let's just say, it would destroy a lesser man. That, I know. I died because of my lack of self-control, after all. I must admit, though. I didn't expect to change this belief of mine after meeting my end, but here I am. Breathing. In a world I don't belong; a world of magic. Here I am, whisked into another reality with the power to sin. To conquer.
