Soaring Dragon Continent, Sky Serpent School
Ye Fa slightly nodded his head forward to the males around him, making them disappear. “I have no idea what you’re talking about Qiu Zhen, those trash aren’t related to me at all.”
Ye Fa seemed to have complete confidence in himself, after dueling with Qiu Zhen he found that Qiu Zhen wasn’t much, so killing him would be simple. The only reason he challenged him to a life and death match was because killing was forbidden, and if news got out that he killed Qiu Zhen then he would have to face some kind of punishment. Since many saw him trying to kill Qiu Zhen before, they would easily connect a who killed him if Qiu Zhen died. Ye Fa decided the best way to get rid of him and humiliate him was to challenge him to a life and death match. However, Ye Fa didn’t think Qiu Zhen would accept, but he had a way to make him accept even if he didn’t want to. When Ye Fa heard that Qiu Zhen accepted his challenge he was slightly stunned because the difference in their powers are huge, and Qiu Zhen naturally had no way to win. Thus Ye Fa wanted to check him out again, but on his arrival he found that Qiu Zhen was still the same level as before.
Qiu Zhen doesn’t understand why Ye Fa is here, but since he is here they might as well have their duel. “I’m guessing since we’ve last fought you’ve improved, otherwise you’ll die in a hurry.”
Ye Fa looked at the surrounding area and thought for a moment before speaking again, “Nah, this place won’t do. How can I kill you if there aren’t a lot of people around to witness it. I’ll let the audience see how strong I am, and give them a message telling them if they give me no face or mess with our faction then the same thing that happened to you will happen to them. I, Ye Fa, cannot do this without an audience now can I?”
Qiu Zhen shrugged, to him whether he was in front of people or not didn’t matter, but he didn’t want to show off too much in front of others. If he killed Ye Fa now when no one is around it won’t show off too much of his power, but he can’t because in a life and death match an elder needs to be around. Sadly at this moment there are no elders around, so they can’t have their match. “Fine, we’ll have it your way. If I were you, I would just tell me who's in charge, maybe then i’ll spare your life when we duel. If not, then don’t blame me later!”
Ye Fa laughed, he couldn’t believe that Qiu Zhen wanted him to give up the person who gave him orders to kill him, and he had confidence he could win. To Ye Fa, Qiu Zhen is just a lowly disciple who has strength that is far above his own level, but could never compete with him. “Hahaha, Qiu Zhen, I have no idea where you have gotten such confidence. Don’t make this daddy show you another lesson!”

Qiu Zhen snorted, “Hmph! You, show me a lesson, yeah… right.”
“I’ll tell you what, since you are in such a hurry why don’t you meet me at the arena in half a days time, I’ll give you that much time to live.” After saying his words, Ye Fa’s figure disappeared leaving behind not even his afterimage.
Li Haun came out of the house, and her black eyes blinked a few times staring at Qiu Zhen. “Hmph! Seems you’ll be taught a lesson before I had the chance to do so myself!”
Qiu Zhen didn’t pay her any mind, he started walking away. He couldn’t be bothered with her for today, he had to go cultivate his body skill and see if the effects were good and how far he could get before his match. Twack!
A pebble hit Qiu Zhen’s back and when he turned around Li Haun was throwing some pebbles up and down, with a grin on her face. “Oh, it seems you have enough guts to hit your master. Naturally you deserve a reward.”
Qiu Zhen grabbed a rock that fit perfectly in his palm and threw it up. Li Haun put all her pebbles down and closed the door, she wasn’t stupid enough to stand there and get hit by a rock. “Closing the door does not help!” Pew! Bang!
Once the rock landed in Qiu Zhen’s hand he threw it at full force putting a big hole in Li Hauns house. Naturally Qiu Zhen wouldn’t harm Li Haun, but he would surely scare her to make her know that she can’t be arrogant to people stronger than her. Qiu Zhen walked off going to his master's place.
This time he didn’t even knock, he directly opened the door and stepped inside. “Master, this disciple has some news to share.”
Fang Wei opened his eyes and glared at Qiu Zhen, suddenly he felt regret in his heart. If only he never said to give him a reward or made a bet, he wouldn’t be interrupted every few days from meditating. True everytime Qiu Zhen came Fang Wei helped him out giving him tips or answering his questions, but it seemed that every time his disciple came he ended up giving away a treasure of his.
“Speak, what brings you here?”
Qiu Zhen had brought a cushion over sometime ago so that way when he comes to visit his master he’ll be able to sit down. Qiu Zhen sat down on his cushion, and looked at Fang Wei, “Com’on master, you aren’t even happy for your disciple to visit, hpmh it’s not like I take all your stuff.”
Fang Wei felt as if he was being toyed with, that’s exactly what Qiu Zhen does every time he comes over. “Never am I getting another disciple, how can you be so shameless.”
Qiu Zhen lightly laughed, “Naturally the disciple learns from the master.”

Fang Wei almost dropped down from floating, he has never been as shameless as his disciple, but yet this disciple of his says he learned it from him. Sighing Fang Wei said, “What do you need?”
Qiu Zhen produced a piece of paper from his ring and passed it to Fang Wei. “This disciple needs the things on this list.”
Fang Wei quickly read the paper and his face paled. “No, no, no! How do you expect me to get you these herbs and this weapon, you think i’m rich?”
Qiu Zhen was shocked, the herbs on the list were cheap herbs, he brought countless numbers of them when he was the emperor. As for the weapon, it was only a mystic grade sword, his armory had countless number of mystic grade weapons. “Master… can it be… you’re poor?”
Fang Wei felt like chopping Qiu Zhen’s head off, how can he ask such a question. It must be known that the items Qiu Zhen wanted are hard to get, and the market price for them are insanely high, how could he, an elder of a school have enough to get all those items. Half of them, he could get, but all, you would have to be from a huge clan or the emperor to get everything on that list. “You, sure are a strange one… how do you expect me to get these? Even you can’t get one item on this list.”
Qiu Zhen’s eyes opened wide, “Master, these things are so cheap! How.. can you be so poor, I say we take this to the headmaster, you need a raise.”
“I… don’t know how you were raised, but whoever raised you must have been shitting gold for you.”
Qiu Zhen snorted then got up, he couldn’t believe that an elder of a first rate school could be so poor. Qiu Zhen had a sad expression on his face, while a small tear came out his eyes. “Don’t worry about it anymore master, this disciple won’t ask for anything you have to buy, this disciple didn’t know elders of a first rate school weren’t treated well.” Qiu Zhen looked around the room, before speaking, “I’ll just take that sword on the shelf.” Before Fang Wei could stop Qiu Zhen, he ran up and grabbed the sword.
Boom!
When Qiu Zhen grabbed the sword, it’s aura blew him back, knocking him against the wall. Fang Wei was happy, at least this disciple would learn some manners. Inwardly he was laughing his head off, but on the outside he had a stern expression. “Ah, Qiu Zhen you should have let me warn you beforehand, that sword is cursed and it has been in this school for generations.”
Qiu Zhen got up from the wall and shook his head a few times, the pressure the sword released was immense. “Cursed? How could a sword be cursed?”
“This… I don’t know. It’s been here for generations, and no one has ever been able to get it from that shelf. The only thing we know is the name of it, it’s called Asura Demon Blade.”
“Asura Demon Blade… strange, I want it!”
Fang Wei shook his head, “You can’t wield it, and neither could anyone. The only way you could ever wield such a sword is if you have Demon Sword Qi, or a demon yourself.”
Qiu Zhen looked at Fang Wei and wondered how would he know that. “How would you know such a thing?”
“Only because seventy years ago I decided to get it appraised, and that person told me without a certain Sword Qi or being a demon no human could wield such a thing. When I heard this I was surprised, never have I heard of Demon Sword Qi before, and I just had to research more about it. I’ve read through countless books in many kingdoms, but never have I found the existence of Demon Sword Qi existing. However I’ve learned of Sword Qi, and Elemental Sword Qi.
Sword Qi is when one reaches the level with the sword that it feels as if he can’t live without having one around. When they wield the sword, it’s like they are a completely different person, and their attack power is increased by tenfold. As for Elemental Sword Qi, it’s existence only appeared recently, the power one must have to reach that is beyond Sword Qi. You not only need to have mastered Sword Qi you also need to have high affinity with one of the elements. When you gain the approval of an element, you’ll gain insight into Elemental Sword Qi, but that’s only what this master has heard and read.”
Qiu Zhen knew about Sword Qi because he has reached that level of mastery in his past life, but Elemental Sword Qi and Demon Sword Qi are new to him. The existence of those two makes him want to hurry and reach one of those levels, if he can have Demon Sword Qi, then he can wield the Asura Demon Blade. Qiu Zhen doesn’t know how to appraise any kind of weapons to determine their rank, but he can tell that this Asura Demon Blade is at least paragon grade if not higher.
“Ok master, you were helpful this time, this disciple is off to cultivate that body skill before going to my life and death match.”
Fang Wei started to meditate again, “Ok… wait..what!?”

Urban Divinity
He slowly backs up until his back is against the wall like my own, "You're..my neighbor?" He points to my door and I nod my head quickly. He hums softly, "You been here a while?" He asks and I nod my head once again. He chuckles, "Ya head hurt?" I nod again but stop as he laughs softly, "I-I mean.. no.. it doesn't." My cheeks burn red as I look at my shoes, "I-It doesn't hurt.." I repeat like a dummy and listen to him clear his throat, "So do you actually live there or was it bull?" He nods to my door and I play with my fingers, "Yeah.. I do.." I feel his eyes watch me and I quickly stop. "You live with your boyfriend or do you like sweatshirts that reach your knees?" He teased, making a giggle slip past my lips. I look away to the floor again, "I-I like big shirts... a lot." I mumble softly and he nods his head, "Hol' up." He puts his box down before walking over to one of the grey bins. I nosily watch as he pulls out a big grey sweatshirt, "Here." He holds it out for me to take and I stare at him with wide eyes, "F-For me?" I hesitantly grab the soft fabric as he chuckles, "Nah for ya mom." I puff my cheeks a little and give him a small glare, "Hush." He leans back against the wall and shakes his head, "It's cold out. You should put it on." ____________________________She was a shy girl from the city with no spine and a list of problems so long that it could touch the floor and roll off her shoes.

Become Leviathan
A young man struggles to put his life back together after his long-term girlfriend is killed in a mass shooting, but as he discovers more about the life, family history, and mysterious ethos of the shooter, everything, including reality itself, is called into question. A non-linear, multi-perspective, kaleidoscopic novel about the inextricable links between individuals, society, religion, and nature. Content Warnings: mass shootings, gang violence, violence towards animals, drug abuse, abusive relationships (romantic, familial, and interpersonal), various severe mental illnesses, and general suffering. However, please note that these elements are NOT included simply to be edgy--each topic is intended to be handled with respect and contain a genuine discussion of ethics. If you feel I have not treated a given topic with respect, please let me know, as I feel doing so is vital to the heart of the work.

YAOS 1 - Limitless Adventures - Yet Another OP Story Book 1
December 23rd 2018: Book 1 is now up at Smashwords and at Amazon. December 30th 2018: V1.1.2 of YAOS Book 1 is out, some content additions, fixed typos. Amazon's enhanced typesetting now displays tables properly. YAOS is shown through the eyes of some genius athlete getting OP inside a VR, ah wait, Full Immersion game, ?F.I.O?. Not a Hero, not a Nerd, just a driven individual paying for mistakes made, biding time until he can return to the Real World. He isn't defined like you'd normally do it, you can pick his looks and name all on your own, just like you do in video games. Believe it or not, keeping his looks undefined is harder than you think. His backstory isn't expounded in detail, but it drives his choices. Book 1 isn't about depressing sob stories but about fun and rushing forward, pursuing new horizons. Oh, and you'll end on a cliffhanger! Well, most serials do, so you will probably expect that without being told explicitly. But it isn't that bad, there's a lot of reveals and more to come once this book, that is the first in a planned three-part series, is finally ready for release on amazon et al. The published version will have: 1.) Godawful speaker tags, I hate them, they make you stop thinking and speed up editing so much. In hindsight they should have been in to begin with. But I stand by my goals proclaimed earlier. You guys should think while reading, that is the whole point of the exercise. Apply the knowledge and ideas, improve yourself, get creative! 2.) Pretty colored tables, the damned blue boxes, a lot of work, 69 in one book. Finally fixed amazon's centering issue. Can't say I liked the hours needed to debug that. 3.) The promised Mitara chapters. 4.) A cover! 5.) And lastly, updated polished versions of several chapters. MC shares more of his past, some terrible chapters (esp. 32) finally work. Some new scenes, minor rewrites in parts. Text flow and other issues. The current challenge is to maintain essential ambiguity while satisfying people wanting to know more without thinking three steps ahead. Balancing one with the other is tough. The smut which was in remains, but the story told is not to be superseded by it. A 15+ rating for the first book is also important, not to mention, YAOS wasn't meant to contain any smut to begin with. If the Author can turn to writing full time his output should increase, so please support YAOS #1 once it does finally release. ~Thank You~ No maps so far, that should be in, but is really hard to get done right. Again, tips are appreciated. Update September 2017: Stubbed chapters, sorry guys, currently don't have time to upload them elsewhere, polishing book 1 and 2, writing 3, takes precedence. Book 1 is in heavy editing, too much to keep synced and continuing editing. I'd need a site which offers JS-free rapid managing of chapters and comments. Coding one myself or setting a premade up is out of scope until I'm done with the books. RRL-old offered that, nuff said. This is only here because the author believes in fairies, nobody reads this, most likely. October to December 2017: Life threw some curveballs. February 2018: Book 2 draft 1 completed, at ~150K words. Book 2 is fairly epic in scope, requires 1 rewritten chapter, some editing. Tables and miscellanea are in, but needs at least a grammar pass. March 2018: Book 3 at 28k words, first arc, rest needs serious planning for spin-off and satisfying conclusion. July 2018: Yet another proofing/editing session of books 1-3, 101+ chapters, ~300k words. B3 at 48k, starts out great, but no ETA, no wordcount limit, in flux. But prioritizing my writing cannot be done, I hate the delays as much as you, but you will prefer the whole released in a timely fashion rather than wait. Knowing myself how excruciating waiting can be, at least you'll get significantly polished versions and an ETA on book 2 by release of book 1. December 23rd 2018: Book 1 is now up at Smashwords and in the process at Amazon et. al.. . To all who wait patiently, offered feedback, thanks again!
