《The Legend of The Grandmaster》Chapter 25
Advertisement
" Father, you were so cool! "
Yu Yan's eyes sparkled brightly; as she yelled. The little girl was not scared; instead, she wanted to be strong just like him. Even she herself did not know that her eyes color had changed from black to icy blue during Yu Xiaogang's fight.
Yu Xiaogang laughed after hearing his daughter praising him, which father wouldn't want his daughter to believe that her father is the strongest.
" Let's eat. " Yu Xiaogang came forward and rubbed her head before he picked up the pieces of wood to light up a fire to cook the food. The little girl sensibly ran to the distance and returned with the vegetables and meat in her hands.
By the time she returned, Yu Xiaogang had already lit the fire and placed all the vegetables in the pot and placed it over the fire, and in the meantime, he roasted the meat.
After a few minutes, both father and daughter sat down and happily ate the vegetable soup and roasted meat. Although from the outside, it looked that Yu Xiaogang was as keen as Little Yan to swallow the food, he was replaying his fight with Tang Xiao in his mind.
Although he won the fight, Yu Xiaogang felt that he was too arrogant during the battle. Same as Tang Xiao, he also was the young master of a great clan, and he knew there are many methods for a great clan to deal with a Titled Douluo, let alone the present him; moreover, Tang Xiao was not alone; he had companions to help him in the battle.
Yu Xiaogang himself was not afraid to fight against all of them together, but two of them could stall him for a period of time, and the remaining person could harm his baby daughter.
It was, for this reason, Yu Xiaogang acted swiftly and did not give his opponent the chance to react, moreover even though he is a battle type spirit-master, Yu Xiaogang controlled the course of the fight. He did not give his opponents the time to think, and this is precisely the reason he beat a spirit-sage just in a few moves.

Yu Xiaogang and Yu Yan resumed their journey after eating the food, and they talked throughout while walking. It was mainly the little girl asking questions and Yu Xiaogang answering.
Yu Xiaogang was surprised after hearing the questions Little Yan put forward today; for the first time, she had shown interest in the battles. Previously although Yu Xiaogang taught her comprehensively, Yu Yan showed almost no interest in learning the fighting skills.
Only Yu Xiaogang knows how pleased he was after hearing his daughter's questions, and he patiently explained to her each aspect of the battle from taking into account his opponent's weakness and making the best use of your surroundings during a fight. Yu Yan attentively listened and nodded her head a few times as if showing that she had understood the meaning behind his words.

A depressing feeling lingered around the three people on the other side of the forest. They were precisely Ah Yin, Tang Hao, and his brother Tang Xiao, who was heavily injured by Yu Xiaogang in the battle recently.
After leaving Yu Xiaogang and his daughter, they traveled for a few hours before resting in the outer region of the forest, and if they had walked for another hour, the three of them would have left the forest and reached the foot of the mountains.
Tang Hao had carried his unconscious brother the whole time on his back, and they finally stopped after Ah Yin's repeated reminder; this warmed up Tang Hao's heart because he knew she was doing it for him.
He took out a rough quilt and spread it on the ground before placing his brother on it. Tang Hao's face looked gloomy every time he saw the bandage over his brother's left eye. He knew from the moment Tang Xiao was injured; it would become almost impossible for him to reach a Titled Douluo's level.
The guilt of not helping his brother tormented his heart.
Ah Yin seemed to sense his thoughts, and she sat beside him and held his hand to comfort him. Tang Hao's body trembled as he felt a soft hand touching his hand. He looked, and his gaze met with Ah Yin's tender look; for a moment, Tang Hao forgot all his troubles and just stared at the cold blue eyes filled with love.

Although they had confessed their love for each other not long ago, yet her face started blushing as she felt Tang Hao's breathing getting faster and his heating up as he looked at her.
" Let's eat something; we have had nothing since morning. " Ah Yin bounced away as she spoke and took out some vegetables from her storage tool to cook.
Tang Hao's face showed his reluctance to let go of her hand, and there was only one thought in his mind, " How good would it be to stay forever like this with Ah Yin. " His face showed a certain determination as he looked at the beautiful woman preparing the food.
After a while, Ah Yin brought two bowls of vegetable porridge and handed one of them to him. Although the porridge was a bit bland yet, Tang Hao could pat his chest and say, " This is the most delicious porridge he had ever eaten. "
Ah Yin's face bloomed with a lovely smile as she saw him gobbling up the porridge. She could not help but remind him, " Eat slowly; it is still hot. "
Amidst this happy mood, Ah Yin suddenly spoke, " Brother Hao, before Yu Xiaogang fought, he secretly handed me a note saying, " Meet me at the Blue Tyrant Academy in Heaven Dou City. "
Tang Hao's mood suddenly got worse after hearing Yu Xiaogang's name, and before he could speak, she interrupted him and continued, " He said it is related to my life. "
He immediately closed his mouth and swallowed the words which were going to come out of his mouth but, Tang Hao was still a bit suspicious about Yu Xiaogang's intention for calling both of them to the Blue Tyrant Academy.
Ah Yin softly added, " Maybe Yu Xiaogang's daughter is also a spirit beast, and he may know something important considering the fact he has God bestowed spirit rings. "
After hearing this, Tang Hao's anger reduced, but his face still looked a bit unpleasant as he gazed back at his sleeping brother. Ah Yin's face had complex emotions as she looked at Tang Xiao; she couldn't believe his actions, but the reality was in front of her.
" You know, Yu Xiaogang showed mercy and did not use his complete power while fighting against Tang Xiao. " Ah Yin suddenly spoke.
Although arrogant, Tang Hao was smarter as compared to his brother and clearly understood the meaning behind Ah Yin's words. Yes, if Yu Xiaogang wanted to kill Tang Xiao, he could have done the instant he blasted him off, but Yu Xiaogang didn't; instead, he showed mercy.
Tang Hao finally decided to meet him after reaching Heaven Dou City and decided to keep it a secret from his brother. He also carefully thought and decided it would be best if Ah Yin didn't follow them back to the clan.

Yu Xiaogang and Yu Yan stopped after traveling for the whole day, and Yu Xiaogang estimated that with their current speed, both of them would reach the city within the next two days.
As they got near to the city, Yu Xiaogang couldn't help but think of the charming silhouette with long red hair and enchanting scarlet eyes.
He couldn't help but look up at the stars shining brightly in the pitch-black sky. It was similar to the night he got married to her.
" Erlong! " Yu Xiaogang muttered to himself and did not know that as he got closer to the city, a certain person felt restless.
#
" Xiaogang, where are you? " A lovely woman with a well-developed figure sitting outside a simple cabin muttered to herself as tears flowed down her cheeks.

The Better Side Of Evil
The last surviving son of House Rotwald is on the run. Chased by his enemies into the heart of a long forgotten wasteland, he is forded to traverse an unholy place of power. With the pursuers hot on his heels, can Victorian find shelter in the realm of the living dead? Or will he become just another walking corpse, doomed to wonder the land for all eternity? Everything that he believed in, everything that he held sacred – gods, kings and their laws – has already betrayed him. With nothing left to lose could the young paladin be persuaded to accept a new master? Could he bargain away his life to a dark power in exchange for vengeance? And what would he be required to do in return? The Kingdom of Leidemar is on the verge of ruin. Rival powers seek to divide it, but there is an opportunity for a new ruler to arise from within its own nobility. And even a lowly nobleman, if positioned correctly, could end up a king. Someone with the right allies, perhaps? Or maybe cruel allies would suffice? But for now the last surviving son of House Rotwald is on the run. *This story is as much about the monsters as it is about the people facing them. Some become allies while others become wet stains on the floor. I firmly believe that villains can make for some of the most endearing characters. Monsters need not be sour and droll. Have a bit of fun - indulge in a bit of villainy. Enjoy the gray morality and colorful cast of this story! *I have a Discord server now: https://discord.gg/4phDRU2 **Artwork by Shane Pierre: https://007access.deviantart.com/ ***I am not a native English speaker, so feel free to help me improve my use of the language!
8 114Ashes of the Primordial
With the upcoming shutdown of the servers for Ragnarok Games’ deep dive VRMMO, ‘Ashes of the Primordial’, the player log of those online for the final night was depressingly empty-looking. A revolutionary level of realism drove Ashes to the forefront of the games market, billions of players enjoying their journey to power and glory as an avatar of their own creation. The final enemy of the game-world defeated, the company announced, in line with their stance from launch, that they would be shutting down the game exactly six months after the defeat of Sutr, the final boss. Ammanas, the player responsible for Sutr's defeat, stays online until the end. However, as the countdown hits 0, the start-hub of his dive rig (what would typically greet a forced ejection from a game) was no where to be seen and instead darkness greets him as he fades into unconsciousness. Awakening to unfamiliar sights in an unfamiliar body, one which turns out to be a lot more familiar than he first thought, now he must figure out where, how, why and what to do with the new world he finds himself in. Author note: I don't own the cover, just something found through a google search. This is also my first story and the MC will basically be unimaginably OP yet never really utilising his full power. He just wants to find somewhere to fit in to the new world he finds himself in and despite both his nature as a loner and his interests he will find himself forming connections with the denizens of this new realm. Hope you enjoy

8 189Nostalgic Gamer in a Cultivation World

But on his dying moments, another dying man with strange magical powers appears. But unlike Dyne, justice was not served for this man. He then offers Dyne a chance to satisfy the greatest regret of his life… To play the videogames he loved back when he was a kid. Using the enigmatic god-tiered artifact, the Imaginarium Bond, Dyne is revived and sent to the world of cultivators where he must reach for the peak and challenge the gods of that world. And while the path of Immortality and a second life was a great gift, Dyne's joy was elsewhere. Within the Imaginarium Bond were three worlds that the mysterious man created with the last of his powers. These worlds were based on three PS-One classic games and are designed to help Dyne in his Path of Cultivation. Soon, Dyne will reach the Cultivation world and fight the wicked Kings, Saints, Devils, and Gods that now control it. Soon, Dyne will awaken the Genesis Trees of Legaia. Soon he will conquer the many nations with his Rune Knights in the continent of Forsena.

Witness the tales of Dyne Valiant in his adventure as a Nostalgic Gamer in a Cultivation World. --- (Will also be posting this on Scribblehub.com and Webnovel. Support me on Patreon and read more (up to 90 chapters there!) Note: This isn't my first rodeo. I have written over 1000 chapters on two other ongoing stories that is ongoing with a 3-4 chapter per week rate at Webnovel and another in Meganovel. This will probably have at least 900 chapters before it ends. And I'm being very conservative. As this story is at its early phase, please read and rate it as such.
8 209In The Maw Of The Gods
Synopsis Lilly Harper was always the type to keep to herself. She struggled to make friendships and so, she simply opted not to. That was why moving to the coastal town of Wilham didn’t bother her. She wasn’t leaving anybody behind and she certainly didn’t expect to be making any friends any time soon. However, when she starts hearing about the school’s “Magic Club”—a group of weirdos who claim that magic is real, she can’t deny that she’s slightly intrigued. Then without warning, she suddenly finds herself wrapped up with them. And what if they aren’t crazy? What if magic is actually real? And what if it’s because of that magic that something more powerful than they could ever conceive of is drawn to Wilham? I plan to follow a release schedule of Tuesday/Friday. Average chapter length will be 4,000 to 6,000 words and I will be using multiple POV's quite often. Also to note, while I am flagging the story with content warnings, I am only doing so because there are specific moments where it will be needed. Overall, the story will be relatively tame and I plan to put extra warnings at the beginning of chapters that it applies to. Thank you to everybody who decides to give my story a chance and I hope you enjoy it!
