《World Of Swords》233 : Killing Intent
Advertisement
Hearing Feng Shuchun's words, the other two couldn't help but nod.
Although Xu Yue was a very carefree person, she also gave very few compliments.
To receive a compliment from Xu Yue you need to either be on really good terms with her or be truly skilled in what you do.
Based on Xu Yue's description of him, this Fang Shi seemed very much like the latter.
"It's a pity he died so young, since he was so talented," mumbled Lin Xue as she shook her head before taking a sip of tea from her cup.
"That's true, it is quite a pity," mumbled Xu Yue, no longer paying much attention to Feng Shi as the conversation moved on to other topics.
...
Eight years, this was how long the meeting between the four cultivators took in total.
"I have to go now, It seems I can't disturb you any longer," said Xu Yue as she suddenly got up from the table, causing Lin Xue to nod.
"It's alright, we spent more than enough time talking," said Lin Xue as she watched Liang Xiaoling and Feng Shuchun also get up from the table.
Soon after, the three cultivators left, leaving Lin Xue standing there alone, smiling.
"It's really a pity our discussion could not go on for longer," mumbled Lin Xue as the table in front of her suddenly disappeared.
A few moments later, Lin Xue closed her eyes, entering meditation.
...
Looking at Xu Yue, who had just appeared in front of her, a large smile suddenly appeared on Hulli Jing's face, as she suddenly got up, no longer sitting cross-legged.
Compared to eight years ago, the size of Hulli Jing's stomach had once again increased by a large amount signaling the fact that the end of her pregnancy was growing nearer and nearer.

Although Hulli Jing could choose to stay pregnant for more years using certain secret techniques, like Xu Yue's mother, Wu Jing, who although was a Dao Saint, managed to do some damage to her own body by keeping Xu Yue inside of her for so long.
"It seems as though you have been enjoying yourself while I was gone," said Xu Yue as she looked at Hulli Jing, a faint smile appearing on her face.
"I took a short nap," mumbled Hulli Jing, causing Xu Yue to suddenly let shake her head.
"That's good," mumbled Xu Yue as she, as well as Hulli Jing, sat back down on the bed.
"Did you enjoy your meeting with your senior and junior sister as well?" asked Hulli Jing although she already knew the answer to the question before already asking it.
"Yes, it was very good," mumbled Xu Yue as she placed her hand on Hulli Jing's stomach, feeling the vibrant life force inside of it.
"These little guys sure are busy," said Xu Yue, feeling Hulli Jing's stomach slightly shake as the three little guys inside of time moved about.
Hearing this, Hulli Jing couldn't help but shake her head.
"They've been getting more and more energetic recently, hopefully, they will still be so energetic after they are born, when they are no longer only my problem," mumbled Hulli Jing, causing black lines to appear on Xu Yue's forehead.
"Already badmouthing your own children even before they are born, I'm sure that these little guys will be obedient, I don't need to do any divination to know that, I can feel it," said Xu Yue as she took her hand off Hulli Jing's stomach.
Hearing Xu Yue's words, Hulli Jing couldn't help but nod, feeling somewhat suspicious.

"If you say so," mumbled Hulli Jing, slightly narrowing her eyes.
Most of the time Xu Yue predicted something, even when she didn't use divination or her Dao of Fate, she would be right, fully based on instinct.
But sadly, Xu Yue's instinct had now failed her at a crucial moment, failing to predict what kind of chaos and headaches those three little guys in Hulli Jing's belly could produce.
In fact, Xu Yue's prediction was so bad it seemed rather hilarious.
...
Looking at the three young men who were cleaning the Taoist temple in silence, a faint smile couldn't help but appear on Xia Jingfei's face.
Suddenly, without any warning, a barrier appeared separating Xia Jingfei from the three.
Seeing this, Xia Jingfei couldn't help but narrow her eyes.
"You know, back in the days when I used to cause chaos and slaughter on a whim, nobody ever came to trouble me, but now, when I'm just living in peace, you guys suddenly gain guts," said Xia Jingfei as she looked at the figure in front of her.
Sadly, the figure did not respond to Xia Jingfei's words, as it suddenly appeared behind her, slashing its sword toward Xia Jingfei's neck.
Sadly though, even though the full attack of the figure had landed on Xia Jingfei, no scratch could be seen on the latter.
Feeling the blade that had just touched her neck, enlightenment suddenly flashed across Xia Jingfei's eyes as she stared at the handsome young man before her.
"I really didn't expect that you would have such a transformation, back then you were so wimpy, even when I destroyed your clan, you didn't do anything, merely standing in a corner, crying," said Xia Jingfei as she shook her head.
"Shut up demon, I have come to cut you down," said the young man as a blood-red aura suddenly appeared around his body.
Without any warning, Xia Jingfei suddenly disappeared from the world, reappearing inside of a purely red space.
This red space was filled with one thing and one thing only, killing intent, killing intent towards Xia Jingfei, causing a surprise to appear on the latter's face.
Without any warning, a blood-red sword suddenly pierced through both Xia Jingfei's body and spirit.
"It's quite a pity that you came here, seeing that you were not worth devouring, I left you alive back then, but It looks as though you wasted that chance I gave you."
"You are now worth killing," mumbled Xia Jingfei, whose both body and soul were collapsing, causing the handsome man that was staring at her to feel a chill in his heart.

Shift (Ben 10+DCU Fanfiction)
Omnitrix+ DCU, what's not to like? The main character will not be Ben Tennyson, rather someone from our world who gains the Omnitrix Hello! This fanfiction Shift is what I wanted to do for an homage to what I thought were underrated pieces of media, Ben 10 and some DCU characters. However, I would be remiss if I didn’t add context to two of the major works that inspired Shift, Dial, and A Practical Guide to Evil. Dial is another ben 10 fanfiction, however that story takes place in the MCU, and with an adult that is already a grown-up at the beginning of the story. Dial, by my own accounts, is more superficially Like shift, even though the Omnitrix is a central device in both. My protagonist starts out around 18 years old, so is less serious and can build relationships with some of the junior justice league members, and then later on in the story meet the Justice League officially. The tone will be more light-hearted at the beginning of the story as teenagers are known to use sarcasm and jokes at each other’s expense. Furthermore, in Dial, the protagonist has a well-developed knowledge of the MCU which he uses to have knowledge on events and characters, that the character in Shift will not have. While the MC will have some knowledge of people's abilities, lesser-known characters and people's real identities will be not included as much, but the MC of Shift will have some knowledge. APGTE's influence is deeper than Dials'. The epigraphs at the beginning of every chapter are an example of that, a place for light-hearted jokes and worldbuilding that's not pure exposition, but I also want to incorporate narrative stories to Shift (heroes win more than lose, providence, etc) on a lighthearted scale. While the heroes of Shift will have to work to win against villains, the MC of Shift will be allowed limited precognition, through narratives tropes and archetypes as a trade-off of less knowledge of the DCU. For example, a villain a hero faces might monologue, but the MC will not instinctively know how to counter every villain they encounter. I also wanted to bring in more realism than usual superhero stories, ie: the MC cannot just walk and have a meeting with Batman or Superman, he would have to “work his way up” in terms of credibility and whatnot. The Aliens that show up in Shift I tried to make different than the ones in Dial, just to share the love for lesser-known characters. And to make it fairer for the villains of the DCU, the main character will not wantonly use if gain at all an Alien X or a ben 10 form of Kryptonians, just so the characters have to work a little bit for victory. I urge anyone reading to consider checking out both APGTE and Dial as they are both amazing works, and I hope you enjoy them. The beginning of how the MC enters the DCU will not be as important as him actually existing in that universe, so that is why a ton of time is not spent on that part of the story. Chapters will be around 2.5 thousand words and come out around every weekday.

The Sorcerer's Apprentice
A world where magic must be hidden from mankind is a world where mages have no reason to exist. Zara was one of them--a young woman forced to spend her days in confinement, to lessen the risks of outsiders discovering the truth. She was not human. She was, as they say, a living embodiment of a thousand year old curse upon the Kingdom and humanity as a whole. And the only way to handle a curse is to get rid of it--which is precisely what the Kingdom had been doing for centuries--eliminating any being that contained even an ounce of enchanted blood. Zara has lived most of her life with the threat of death hanging over her head, though it never averted her heightening curiosity about magic, nor the abilities innate within her. And when a powerful, enigmatic Sorcerer comes to her with a proposition, Zara finally sees her chance to embrace the curse she was born with. It was a chance laced with precarity and destruction, but a chance nonetheless...
