《Song of the Phoenix》Chapter 20
Advertisement
Locked in a vulnerable position beneath her opponent, Baihe’s first priority was to escape. Aiming to secure her opponent’s right arm, Baihe grabbed Fei Fei’s right wrist with her own right hand and took the elbow with her left hand. Then, using her left foot, Baihe secured Fei Fei’s right ankle before raising her hips straight up and rolling onto her left shoulder.
Since Baihe had fully secured the right side of Fei Fei’s body, her opponent had no way of bracing herself to prevent the sudden roll initiated by Baihe. The crowd watched in awe as Baihe suddenly switched position with Fei Fei, mounting the opponent beneath her.
Without hesitation, Baihe quickly locked Fei Fei’s arms securely before slamming her head downward; two hard skulls collided with one another as both heads connected with a loud bang. For a brief moment, all Fei Fei could see were stars spinning around her head and all she could feel was her body burning in all the places Baihe touched, but that wasn’t the end of it.
Apprehension gripped Fei Fei’s heart when she saw the dark, sinister look in Baihe’s gaze. Then, Fei Fei watched in horror as the flames on Baihe’s body began to burn away her outer robe and inner garments. Instantly, using the advantage of having a higher cultivation stage, Fei Fei escaped from underneath Baihe and hastily tried to stop the fire, but it was as if the flames were abiding by the will of its owner.
No matter how hard she tried to extinguish the fire, it didn’t work. Instead, the spiritual energy Fei Fei added to her palms as she patted down her clothes in an attempt to douse the fire only seemed to ignite it further, making it spread even faster. This fire — if it could still be called a fire, worked and moved in mysterious patterns — completely unlike normal flames.
One by one, like a white lotus flower shedding its petals, the clothes on her body burned away. Within mere seconds, Fei Fei stood before the crowd in her birthday suit. Silent filled the entire stadium. No one could believe their eyes; some even rubbed it a few times to ensure they weren’t seeing things. Others were too afraid to blink, in fear that this gift was a projection of their unfulfilled lust.

Someone whistled in the crowd and soon, everyone followed suit. Fei Fei felt her face heat up as she anxiously tried to cover her naked body, but her hands couldn’t possibly shield all the private parts without revealing another section at the same time.
The males in the crowd admired her two plump breasts lecherously while making lewd motions with their hands and tongues. Others were granted a full view of her peach shaped buttocks and the more shameless ones squatted down for the only chance to see the noble, respectable Huang Fei Fei’s secret valley between those slender legs.
This was their future Crowd Princess — naked for their eyes to feast upon. How could the commoners not relish in joy? Even the nobles among them were openly gawking at that fair bared skin, although they were better at controlling their emotions and maintaining their noble countenance. Emperor Feng who sat above his throne also didn’t shield his eyes; it was as if all females on his land were rightfully meant for him to admire if he so chooses to bestow such honor upon them. Only the well-respected scholars with a true noble heart, turned their heads away.
The wives and concubines in the audience glared at Fei Fei with disdain, resentful over her luscious body and angry over her indecency. Seeing those licentious intentions in the eyes of their beloved, the women could only vent their indignation against the culprit. Loud female voices laced with contempt and mockery gossiped among themselves for how the future Crowd Princess had no sense of propriety.
In broad daylight, this vixen was trying to seduce their spouse, love-interests, brothers, sons, and uncles. Not even the grandpas were spared as their eyes hazed over with lust at such an old age with heads already full of grey hair. If such a woman were to enter the royal family, wouldn’t Prince Zhao end up wearing the green hat? She hadn’t even cross the threshold and she had already tried to seduce his father, Emperor Feng with that naked body.

The jealousy and anger in the hearts of the women present were fierce and their minds came up with all sorts of conspiracy and blame. They all tried to console themselves by thinking: What’s so good about that body? Isn’t it just a little more meat and flesh in the chest and butt area? If my husband wants it, I’ll just eat a bit more!
Tears pooled at the rims of Fei Fei’s eyes. When had she ever suffered such humiliation? This was a shame Fei Fei couldn’t swallow down because today’s event would be a black mark on her life that will follow her forever. Gingerly, she cast a glance toward Prince Zhao and as expected, his face was completely dark and disgust was shown in his eyes. Her heart dropped as she felt the position of her Crowd Princess teetering unstably on the edge. Even the nobles were looking at her with a different set of eyes.
No! No! I’ve already gave everything to him! I could even be carrying his royal blood in my womb at this moment! He can’t just abandon me! He won’t!
Something dark and vicious erupted in Fei Fei’s eyes, her face flushed with anger. If it weren’t for those weird flames, the one naked and disgraced before the audience right now would have been Baihe; and she Huang Fei Fei, would have been happily enacting one of her favorite past-time hobbies — whipping Baihe naked.
This was all that slut’s fault! Baihe was supposed to be the one suffering this fate right now! Not me! It should have never been me!
Through Baihe’s connection with Qian, she knew her time was almost up and the sacred flames would soon disappear. Since the seal wasn’t fully broken and her own strength was still lacking, Qian’s powers were being limited, including his freedom and the duration she was able to borrow his strength for; she must wrap this fight up now or she could possibly lose.
With a speed of wind, her shadow closed the distance between them. The raucous crowd started to settle down when they realized the fight hadn’t ended and there was still more show to watch.
Upon seeing Baihe suddenly appeared before her, Fei Fei quickly sobered up. In the time it took for the eyes to blink, Fei Fei was hit with an upward palm strike to her nose and her eyes immediately watered in tears. Following that attack, something hard connected with one of her cheeks, knocking her silly.
As much as Fei Fei had wanted to block it, she was too preoccupied with trying to salvage any last remaining shred of dignity she had left by covering whatever exposed skin she could as much as possible, but she would have never expected that her moment of distraction would lead to her being beaten black and blue.
As a result, punch after punch landed on her face — ruthless, fast, and without mercy. Fei Fei could only feel her head spin as her vision turned foggy. The pain wasn’t just exclusive to her face because Baihe executed a series of kicks and punches to both the face and body alike.
“Ah, not bad monkey girl! This white lotus flower makes a pretty good meat punching bag for you to practice some kickboxing moves! Too bad I don’t have enough energy to come out; otherwise, I’ll even join in by pecking those two ugly eyeballs out!”

Protagonist: The Whims of Gods
Book one now also on Amazon! After quitting her job as a therapist and grabbing some work at a dog shelter, Tess's life became pretty slow. A tad boring, even. It thus came as no small surprise when she was chosen by a god. Thrust into a new world where magic, monsters, and character levels are suddenly a reality, Tess will quickly find that just surviving can be a challenge. It doesn't help that dark forces are stirring, she's woefully underpowered, and that spiders keep trying to claw her face off. One thing's for certain, though: The possibilities are endless. Will she end up wrestling a dragon? Becoming an arch-mage? Opening a quaint, bookstore, coffee shop, and wine bar for elves? The choice is hers... As long as she can live long enough to make it. Protagonist is a fairly classic LitRPG novel with character levels, classes, stats, settlements, and other LitRPG elements. Unlike a lot of LitRPG stories, while the protagonist has some perks, she doesn't start off overpowered. You can expect to see her struggle as she advances. This novel also takes the opportunity to explore some less frequently seen builds, shying away from any min-maxing. Chapters are about ~2000-3000 words and are released at 8:00am ET every other day.

Dream Dungeon
Welcome to the dream dungeon. Ely suddenly finds himself in a mysterious dungeon accessed only through sleeping. Many people are drawn into this dream world, confused and mystified. Those in this dungeon must kill monsters to survive; maybe even each other. Join Ely as he struggles to survive a ruthless environment. What replaces his rest is untold trauma. What seems like an innocent game trope turns into a nightmare. This is a story of tragedy and the path to ultimate power. All in the hopes of an uncertain survival. _________ This fiction has NOT been abandoned. I made a haughty promise earlier to not worry because I'll continue this series, and with things lately, I've only proved myself a liar. Further promises dwindled, and I've lost trust. So many things have been going on recently that I've been booked. I will refrain from making any future guarantees or promises as my busy schedule will stay with me for a long long while. Time for me to actually spend on writing and revising won't appear until at the least November 19. I won't say expect that's when I'll restart, but you can expect expecting it to maybe happen. That's really shallow. But with everything going on, I've let my small reading base down. I apologize. I still stick by my statement though that I won't abandon this project. I plan to stick it to the end, no matter the delay. Most importantly, thank you everyone; readers who both like and dislike my work. I appreciate your time spent on my dumb imagination. Stay toasty my readers in this winter season. Cheers. UPDATE: We're back on track. Thank you for your patience. Any future readers, heyo! Glad you're here. UPDATE 2: So far it's been 21 days since I last uploaded a chapter. The best thing done for any fiction, no matter how good it is, is that it continues, and I have a bad history with that. 1 fiction on hiatus and already more delays with less than 20 chapters in this fiction. I've been very preoccupied with adding more things to do in my life rather than actually committing to any particular thing. That applies primarily to this. I cannot abandon this, as busy as my future looks and will look as I get busier and busier. Someday, I hope, I will be able to sit down and just write. just. write. But for now, I ask for patience. I suppose I'm glad this fiction hasn't picked up so that I don't disappoint too many people if any really. But I need to commit and it's going to happen sometime and sometime soon. No more flowery words. I'll see you later. UPDATE 3: It's very evident I won't be able to pick up this story for a while. With AP Testing, competitions, and other things I am busier than ever. But I must complete this fiction. I have too. Until next time. UPDATE 4: It is now the summer. I owe everyone an apology. Chances are, nobody's around to see this, and that is okay. I only blame myself for this sort of brokenness of a fiction, not that it is actually that bad but I am just exaggerating it for dramatic effect.But what's not exaggerated is the severity of my broken promise. I apologize for my naive claims about finishing a novel that I couldn't finish and that I didn't have the discipline to finish. Nor the skills, really, I was and am still an immature writer.What is to place now? I want to make it clear I understand this is my fault. I will man up to this. And I will accept any criticism. I understand I messed up. Reading Stephen King's On Writing made it clear to me that I need to do two things:Read lots.And write lots.I have done neither. If I don't have the time to read often, how do I expect to write? I need to become more experienced. I need to become a serious writer.So if I want to dream of continuing, I need to at least fulfill both requirements. I enjoy writing. I haven't written seriously outside of school in a while. I planned to write this summer and finish this. I made a lot of promises that I didn't keep.So there's that. I won't enact any self-pity, or be foolishly obsessed. What I did was wrong, and I must deal with it. I let down readers. And I apologize.I hope I can find forgiveness. This is a writer's sin.I won't promise I'll finish this. I intend to finish this, at some point, because writing is fun and I want to write. But how things are don't reflect that. Maybe I'll finish this at some point. Maybe I won't. I won't be naive to make that promise.I thank everyone who has read this if this is the end. If not, and hopefully not, I thank everyone who is to read future chapters. I thank everyone who allowed me to live in the miniscule little dream of mine as I passed my days. I thank everyone who cares enough to read this. Until next time, peace everyone. Thank you. You are all great readers and great people. I wish everyone the best in whatever reading/writing endeavors follow you henceforth.
