Chapter 281: Drawing Swords
“What’s going on?”
The commander of the Scarlet Vulture guards, Bald Vulture, surveyed the surroundings and asked expressionlessly in a low voice .
Some cultivators from True Fire Elixir Workshop rushed forth and recounted the entire incident with added gossip .
“Hahahaha… ”
Bald Vulture looked at Su Zimo playfully with a cruel gaze as he laughed in a maniacal manner .
“It’s over . That green-robed cultivator is definitely going to be tortured to death in the hands of Bald Vulture . ”
“If I were him, I’d commit suicide right away . At least, it’ll be an easier death . ”
Many cultivators discussed softly .
The commander of the White Hawk guards, Bai Yuhan, could not help but frown when she heard the recount .
The entire incident seemed fishy .
It was originally a feud between True Fire and Azure Frost Elixir Workshop . Or rather, it could be said that it was a private grudge between He Xing and Su Xiaoning .
Even though Pang Ming insinuated the spirit lion to injure Su Xiaoning and knock her Elixir Furnace over while He Xing bullied her, the situation was still within control .
It was only after this green-robed cultivator appeared that the situation spiraled out of control completely…
It was true that He Xing had attacked first, but the green-robed cultivator’s reaction was way too extreme – he killed two men right away without giving the other side a chance to explain things!
Furthermore, even if he killed He Xing in self-defense, it did not make sense for him to kill the two Scarlet Vulture guards thereafter .

Bai Yuhan looked over at Su Zimo instinctively but found herself slightly stunned .
He was encircled by two guard squads of the capital; he was faced with two commanders and one of them was even the cruel Bald Vulture . Yet, that man did not show any bit of fear at all!
In fact, Bai Yuhan could not see a hint of panic in the eyes of that person!
He had killed in the capital and he was even so decisive in killing guards of the capital . Yet, he was calm and composed in the face of this heavy encirclement – just what sort of backing does that man have?

Bald Vulture looked down at Su Zimo from above . Excitement could be seen in his eyes as he said sinisterly, “Very good, very good . It just so happens that I’m bored during this period of time and someone offered himself to relieve my boredom, hehe . ”
“You won’t be able to touch me . ”
Su Zimo suddenly spoke, looking at Bald Vulture calmly .
The moment he said that, the crowd fell into an uproar .
This man was of a lowly status and yet he dared to openly challenge the commander of the Scarlet Vulture guards – did he really want to die?!
Bald Vulture’s face darkened .
Ever since he took on the position as the commander of the Scarlet Vulture guards, no one had dared to speak to him like this through the years!
“Kid, let me tell you . Even if the Heavenly King came today, he wouldn’t be able to save you!”
Bald Vulture said coldly, “Don’t worry, I have a hundred ways to make your life a living hell! By the end of it all, you will kneel before me and begging for mercy for me to kill you!”
Right then, another voice could be heard from afar .
“You truly wouldn’t be able to touch him . ”
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice, only to see a figure rushing over as fast as lightning . He strode through the air in an extremely fast speed and arrived in the blink of an eye .
The man wore a green armor and was tall with a dark, bearded face . He was none other than the commander of the Azure Falcon guards, Mu Dongqing!
When the bearded man caught sight of Su Zimo, he shot a look signaling for the latter to be assured .
Su Zimo nodded slightly as a form of greeting .
Today, it should be the Azure Falcon guards’ turn to rest and the bearded man should not have appeared here .
However, he must have been informed by someone to be able to arrive in time .
Sweeping his gaze, Su Zimo found out that Nian Qi was gone and instantly had a hunch about what happened .
“That lass sure is smart . ”
Su Zimo muttered to himself internally .

The appearance of the bearded man and his statement shocked the onlookers as they could vaguely feel that the situation had changed again!
“Mu Dongqing, you are on break for today’s shift . What are you doing here?” Bald Vulture looked at the bearded man and Su Zimo before asking suddenly .
The bearded man said in a seemingly casual manner, “Nothing much . I came over to take a look seeing that the commotion had gotten quite big . ”
“Fufu . ”
Bald Vulture smiled . “It’s none of your business here . It’s enough that I’m here, you can leave . ”
“Alright . ”
The bearded man nodded and descended on the ground . Grabbing Su Zimo by the arm, he rose into the sky – he was trying to take Su Zimo away from this place!
“Hmm?”
Bald Vulture’s expression changed and his body flashed, appearing before the bearded man instantly . Blocking their way, he asked slowly with a darkened expression, “Mu Dongqing, what’s the meaning of this?”
“Nothing much . ”
The bearded man stood in front of Su Zimo with no change in his expression .
Bald Vulture pointed at the corpses on the ground and sneered, “This person has no eyes for the law and slaughtered people in the capital, even killing two of my Scarlet Vulture guards . You want to take him away just like that? Mu Dongqing, aren’t you bold?!”
The bearded man frowned .
Suddenly, Su Zimo whispered in his ears and the bearded man’s eyes lit up before saying in a deep voice, “Bald Vulture, since He Xing was the one who attacked first, he brought his own death to himself . As for your Scarlet Vulture guards, they had lost their honor and it was a dereliction of duty for them to be biased and failing to notice what had happened . ”
“Mu Dongqing, it’s Azure Falcon’s turn to rest today . You don’t have the rights to interfere in the matters here!” Bald Vulture’s eyes shone brightly and the coldness in his tone intensified .
The bearded man said in a low voice, “Today, I’m Mu Dongqing and I don’t represent the Azure Falcon guards! No other Azure Falcon guards will interfere in today’s matters as well!”
“Tsk, tsk, tsk!”
Bald Vulture suddenly laughed in a sinister manner, making one’s hair stand on end .
After a moment, the laughter stopped .
Slapping his storage bag, Bald Vulture pulled out two silver hooks that shone with a frosty, cold glint before saying slowly in an intimidating manner, “If you insist on protecting him, you’ll be going against me and the entire Scarlet Vulture guards! Don’t blame me for not showing mercy!”
Upon hearing that, the Scarlet Vulture guards in midair withdrew their spirit weapons and glared at the bearded man with fierce, unfriendly expressions .
The bearded man fell silent .
Bald Vulture was exerting pressure on him using the entire squad!
As long as he dared to make any objections, he would be making enemies with the entire Scarlet Vulture guards!
Just when the crowd thought that the bearded man was about to give him, he did not take a single step back and wiped his hand gently across his storage bag . Instantly, a gigantic hammer appeared in his palms, emanating a sturdy and heavy aura .
That was tit for tat!
“Like I said, you won’t be able to touch him today!”
The bearded man had a burning gaze and the hammer in his hands trembled, radiating with a brilliant spirit light . Four spirit patterns shone in a bedazzling manner, attracting a series of surprised gasps!
Four spirit patterns, it was a supreme-grade spirit weapon!
Everyone was shocked .
One the one hand, they were shocked at the supreme-grade spirit weapon in the hands of the bearded man .
On the other hand, no one had expected that the bearded man would make an enemy out of the entire Scarlet Vulture guards just for that green-robed cultivator!
The hammer in the bearded man’s hand shone with a bright spirit light . Given the situation, the numerous Scarlet Vulture guards in midair channeled their spirit energies, causing the dagger-axes in their hands to shine brightly while flying swords hovered above the skies .
In the blink of an eye, the two parties had drawn swords and were on the verge of fighting!

Embrace the Blade [Drafts 1&2]
James Ransom grew up unable to do the simplest of life’s tasks. Legs were malformed; he was in a wheel chair as long as he could remember. Suffering from a severe form of muscular exhaustion making him unable to use his hands for long despite his resolve to fight through it. All the challenges facing him he still was able to enjoy reading and video games; but a tragic car accident will change his life forever and perhaps he will be given the opportunity to reincarnate into another world. Special thanks to Mikaelle for the Synopsis. This is my first book/fic so constructive critisism would be very nice. Expect a lot of grammatical errors but hopefully not too many spelling errors. Explanation for the tags; Action/Adventure/Fantasy: These don't really need an explanation, Comedy: I'll try to be funny hopefully I won't fail miserably, Romance: I like romantic sub-plots, LitRPG: No explanation needed but I am using my own system, Reincarnation/Summoned Hero: Not sure which one applies here I'm inclined to think both so I put both, Reader Interactive: I put this one here for my own amusment I'll allow everyone to help create the MC's love interest and maybe a few other things we will also hold a few contests.. Male Lead: self explanitory, Magic: Also easy, Strong Lead: Think of this as more of a weak-to-strong tag the MC will be OP but not till later in the story. Warning: Since this fic is labeled as 'Strategy' I believe that the readers should know as much as possible about the situations presented in the story so they can reach their own conclusions about how a fight could have been won or lost. That means: there are a lot of information dumps early on. I don't know how long I'll be able to write this fic but I promise to keep my few readers informed in case I decide to drop it or something.

Summoned
“Per aspera ad astra." Death. Mercilessly, it comes for all. But when a young man is given a second chance – a second life – to experience what he never has, what will he do? Leave the burdens of his past behind, improving upon his faults? Or will he collapse back into old sins, wasting the opportunity given to him? Perhaps even he himself does not know. * Join Andre on his journey as he explores a new world – one ripped straight from the pages of a D&D campaign he's never played. He will face monsters. He will face men. And above all, he will face himself. The story’s genre is your standard progression fantasy, isekai: magic, a system, and a level of technology suspiciously underdeveloped. I’ve borrowed tropes from various books I’ve read like “The Second Coming of Gluttony”. The similarities are there (particularly in the beginning), but I assure you the story is my own. It’s in the first-person perspective and has its own quirks, characters, and world for you to become immersed in. The upload schedule for this will be different from the usual fictions on this site: I’ll release chapters in batches rather than so many a week. I’m a college student, so I don’t want another deadline to worry about. Depending on the popularity/demand of the series, I might increase or decrease the rate of releases. Other than that, I hope you enjoy the story! P.S. This is my first fiction so make sure to point out mistakes wherever you see them. I’m doing this, partly, to increase my skill as a writer. However, be kind! I’m fragile, you know? Warning: ***This is far from your happy-go-lucky, feel-good adventure story. There will be content that some of you might not be comfortable with. And if you're already feeling skeptical reading this, click away and don't come back. If you're still here, what are you waiting for?***

The Tower of Opportunity - Rewrite
Criminals from around the world are summoned by a mysterious being who informs them that they only have 3 months left to live unless they climb the mysterious tower that lies before them, through which they can gain another two weeks added to their lifespan for every floor conquered. They soon discover that they can harness powers that have been granted to them by this mysterious being to not only achieve victory against the enemies that they will face in the tower, but also attain their deepest and darkest desires as well. Watch our protagonist's journey through the tower as he struggles to endure the curse he bears, one which damns him to ever-repeat his climb to the top of the tower, until he succeeds. *** This is a rewrite of a story I started writing about 3 months ago which was written in the third person, and this rewrite shifts the story perspective to the first person. There will be occasional user polls to decide how the story progresses, interspersed throughout the story, and the polls that were done in the original version will still apply to the current version. Also if you have any suggestions for story ideas that you would like to see incorporated, leave a comment about it, and they might show up in the future. Lastly, I hope you enjoy the story, and thanks for reading. P.S. Thanks to gej302 for the cover art.

I was the 6th-grade "slut." And I kept a diary. So I decided to create The UnSlut Project in the hopes that my own diary entries could provide some perspective to girls who currently feel trapped and ashamed.

My limited commentary, which is confined to brackets in each entry, is meant to provide the relief of my current perspective, fifteen years later. The UnSlut Project: Working to undo the dangerous slut shaming in our schools, communities, media, and culture by sharing knowledge and experiences.
