《The Glory After Rebirth》C6. Keep Your Damned Eyes Open

“Are you looking for me?”
Just while these people were talking, Ling Zhang suddenly appeared behind all of them. He looked neat and tidy. Apart from a whiff of alcohol, he did not show any inappropriateness, let alone the so-called traces left after fornicating with a woman.
"When I was resting in the wing-room, I heard great noise here and my name being called far away. What happened?"
There followed an extremely awkward silence after his words. No one expected that Ling Zhang would suddenly appear and he looked as if nothing had happened.
Welcome to all chapters of The Glory After Rebirth on Flying Lines.
“Ling Zhang, how dare you show up!” Immediately someone pointed at Ling Zhang and cursed, "Yuanling regards you as a brother, but you betrayed him to have an affair with his father's concubine!"
Others immediately woke up to that, looking suspiciously and contemptuously at Ling Zhang.
Ling Zhang snorted coldly and his face sank down as he queried, “What are you talking about?”
“You know what you have done and do you need us to speak it out?” The people around Jia Yuanling tried their best to make a scene.
Ling Zhang’s eyes chilled down as he suddenly stepped forward. Before everyone could react, he kicked hard at that man's lower abdomen. There was a bang. The man was kicked backwards and fell, screaming out of pain.
Everyone was stunned by this kick from Ling Zhang.
“Who the hell you think you are? How dare you slander me? Keep your snobbish eyes open to see who I am! How dare you offend Ling family?” Ling Zhang said in cold tone, looking down at the person who was kicked down on the ground. The anger and murderous intent in his eyes were clearly visible, and the fierce momentum frightened everyone to say nothing.

“How dare you…you kick me?” The man sat up awkwardly, and when he saw Ling Zhang's eyes, he stammered without even the gut to stand up.
“How presumptuous of you to hurt my guest! Where do you think you are? You pay no respect to Jia family.” As the owner of Jia family, Jia Yin was the first to recover from shock.
Ling Zhang turned to look at him. His cold and fierce eyes made Jia Yin and all the people behind him feel chilly and unconsciously took a step backward.
“Where? I just think your Jia family is a big joke. Is there a father's concubine who would sneak into his son's yard? Are your son's guards all dead? Either the gatekeeper intentionally let her in, or the woman had the means to get in easily. Either way, it only proves that she has been here more than once. Need I remind you of what shameful things she has done?"
“And this place is only a wall away from the main hall. Can't the people in the main hall hear the movement here? You’d better look into the sordid relationship between your concubine and your son. He played her into a coma, and he wanted to use me as a scapegoat? Although I am here alone today, I am not the one to be bullied.”
“What do you mean?” Jia Yin was so angry that his fingers trembled. His eyes, which were fixed fiercely at Ling Zhang, burst with anger as if he were going to eat Ling Zhang alive.
"Are you deaf?" Ling Zhang was not a bit intimidated by his glare at all. "I said your son and the people around him were the ones who have committed adultery with the concubine.”
After Ling Zhang said this, everyone was shocked and looked suspiciously at Jia Yuanling and the people around him.
At this point, all were shocked as they just noticed that Jia Yuanling and several other people standing near the concubine flushed, their breathing quickening and their eyes reddening as if they were caught by a seizure.

Hinterland
Simon sincerely believed he was saving Morgan's life when he pushed her off the second-story roof of her family farmhouse. To be fair, his mother was burning it to the ground at the time. But Morgan Mumford, a lonely outcast with a chip on her shoulder and a full skeleton of remarkably unbroken bones, is not particularly convinced of his good intentions. Because the instant he pushed her over Simon also whisked Morgan into the realm of Hinterland: a shadowy world that is a perfect replica of their home town of Coching. But Hinterland is a hungry and dangerous place, where ordinary objects have taken on a life of their own. In Hinterland you might be ambushed by a gang of motorcycles or eaten alive by a duplex. And by god, you run from scissors. Morgan is now trapped in this hostile realm, unable to find a way home. Hunted relentlessly by Aqualung, an evil-minded Buick Skylark with a love for Jethro Tull and hatred for all things on two legs, she is forced to join a ragtag band of fellow castaways to ensure her survival. But the embittered leader of these children has plans of his own, and before long Morgan finds herself swept into his vendetta against Hinterland's imperious ruler: Simon's mother, who commands the living, breathing town to do her bidding and schemes to transform it into something worse than it is now. Something ravenous. It's time for Morgan to decide whether to ditch her new allies and find her own way out of the belly of the beast, or stay and help her fellow outcasts weather the violent feud that brews on the horizon.

8 97Diary of Discord
Buying land and starting a homestead sounded like a wonderful way to escape the city life that plagues so many, but when tragedy strikes, times get tough, and morals slowly erode. What is that one thing you will be willing to do to survive? What about the one thing you are sworn against? That line in the sand will be crossed, the threshold will be breached, and the other side of the door explored, that dark place that is the feral human instinct of survival will be laid bare.
8 76Summoning America
Entirely cut off from Earth, the United States finds itself in a scientific impossibility: the entire country, including the continental landmass and separated states and territories, was transported to another world. Unlike Earth, this new planet boasts phenomena unknown to science. Magic reigns supreme in this new region of the universe, bolstered by the natives' own scientific progression. Monsters roam wastelands and dungeons, subsisting off unfortunate travelers, local fauna, and sometimes even entire towns! Ambassador Samuel Anders is tasked with contacting the various nations and entities of this new world. Despite his best attempts at diplomacy, the arrogance and hostility of the natives prove to be an unnavigable barrier. War is the only alternative. Eventually, fears surface regarding an ancient evil: the Ravernal Empire. How will the United States handle the threats of this new neighborhood? What magical wonders will its adventurous citizens find? This Summoning Japan inspired work will follow the United States as it is summoned to a New World. The story will begin with the United States’ initial encounter with the Rodenius continent. Although starting similarly to the original story, Summoning America will begin to diverge greatly as the war against the Lourian Kingdom comes to an end. For the context of this work, I expect that you have already familiarized yourself with the original piece, “Summoning Japan” also known as “Nihonkoku Shoukan”.
8 435Undying Lairs: A LitRPG web novel series
Chris Able is as risk-averse as they come after losing his job with the Atlanta PD and his recent divorce. So he looks forward to a weekend of safe, table-top gaming with his old college friends in the beautiful North Georgia mountains.Instead, he’s pulled into a dank, monster-infested fantasy dungeon, where his survival depends on mastering the skills, magic, and personality of the player character he’s possessing. At least his friends are with him, but in the bodies of their own player characters. And none of them know how they got there.Chris soon learns that to get home, he and his friends must do the impossible – defeat a god-like being at the center of the dungeon that knows far too much about their Earthly lives.It’s not the weekend a guy with anxiety issues needs. The Undying Lairs series is a LitRPG web novel. It starts with book one, THE TOMB OF ANGELUS. You'll notice "B1" in front of the first 35+ chapters, which means those chapters are part of "Book 1." When book one ends, "B2" will begin, and so on throughout the series. I know how the series ends, but getting the characters from here to there is the fun part. :-) Starting March 22, 2022, chapter releases are 4 pm ET Tuesdays and Thursdays.
