      Chapter 165: Returning to the Life Once Lived

      by Orluros Tat-tat-tat The sound of galloping hooves sped along the official road, from the capital heading southeast toward He Valley Prefecture and Fushui County. Couriers bearing documents came and went without pause, hastily delivering them to the local yamen. Before long, proclamations were posted up one after another. All were warrants for the arrest of Lu Liangsheng. Beside his name was the portrait of Sun Yingxian, a sharp-mouthed, monkey-cheeked fellow with a crooked mustache, and—hm—even that…

      Chapter 176 – What One Cannot Ask For Is Also Fate

      by Orluros The first Lingbao left Lu Liangsheng fairly satisfied. Though it had been forged with the sole purpose of countering Pudu Cihang, it would prove tremendously useful in other circumstances as well. So long as the opponent possessed hearing, they would not escape its influence. “I wonder if this might be a little too sinister,” Such things could only be known in time. By now, the sky had brightened fully; human voices began to rise from the village below, and from afar, the clear crowing of…

      Chapter 166 – Longevity and Vitality

      by Orluros Morning light pushed aside the dark outlines of night, spilling across the rolling mountain ridges, and bathed Lu Family Village at the foot of the hill in a sheet of gold. Cock-a-doodle-doo— The rooster lifted its bright red comb and crowed loudly, breaking the stillness of dawn. Inside a small fenced courtyard, the Toad Daoist stood by the window lattice, lazily stretching before beginning to sway his round, bulging waist. In the yard, a speckled old hen darted out of the coop, scratching and…

      Chapter 177 – Fate, Subtle Beyond Words

      by Orluros “Separate?” On a forest path outside the city, the group resting beneath the trees turned their heads at the sound of a woman’s voice. Under the shade of a nearby tree, Min Yuerou crouched beside an old man, taking the waterskin her father handed back. Her face showed clear anxiety. “Father, what exactly has happened? Ever since we left the capital, you’ve said nothing to your daughter. Now you’re telling me we must part ways, and that I should go seek someone? Father, what in the…

      Chapter 167 – Forming an Array with Illusions, Using Paintings as Soldiers 

      by Orluros Chirping sounds filled the air— A flock of birds glided across the mountain forest, one alighting upon the branch of an ancient pine. It tilted its bright eyes toward the scholar by the grave below, then fluttered down, landing atop the tombstone and hopping along it. On a sheet of pristine white paper, lines of ink took shape, outlining one figure after another—arrayed in formation, long spears standing like a forest. The brush tip danced, tracing armor plates and iron helms, sketching the proud…

      Chapter 178 – Ha! The Eight Vajras of Mount Qixia!

      by Orluros By the time it was afternoon, the sunlight had begun to slant, shining across stretches of woodland that swayed lightly in the wind. Under the shade of the trees, a group of eight sturdy men had rested for a while. Lu Pan, carrying a blade on his back, swung his thick arm and called for the others to get moving. “We’ve stayed here for about an hour. Let’s patrol the lower slope!” The other seven braced their arms against the ground and rose one after another, stepping out from beneath the…

      Chapter 168 – The Mountains and Waters Have Spirits, Heaven and Earth Lend Their Laws

      by Orluros The blazing sun hung high overhead. Shafts of light pierced through the dense canopy of leaves, and amid the grating hum of cicadas, a woodcutter carrying a bundle of firewood on his back saw two men leading a donkey up the mountain path. He squinted for a while, then broke into a grin. “Ah, it’s Mister Lu—and the Daoist as well! What brings you two up the mountain today?” The area between Lu Family Village and North Village was mostly frequented by local villagers collecting firewood, and…

      Chapter 169 – The Toad

      by Orluros The night wind moaned and whistled as it swept past the eaves, squeezing through the narrow crack of the door. The oil lamp flickered. The kitchen, crowded and full, smelled faintly of smoke and grease. A mottled old hen dozed off, nestled in a pile of firewood. No one spoke — only the da-da of chopsticks tapping against bowls echoed through the room. With several swift movements, the shadows of chopsticks rose and fell. The plate piled high with fatty wild boar meat was soon emptied, its bottom…

      Chapter 174 — Caught Off Guard

      by Orluros The light of dawn pushed aside the darkness between heaven and earth. On the official road, banners snapped in the wind as a vast black tide of troops stretched endlessly into the distance, stirring up clouds of dust that filled the sky. Donkey carts and ox carts had retreated into the fields, while merchants traveling from north and south gathered together, staring in astonishment at the long serpent of an army winding past. Some exchanged whispers in low voices. “Are we going to war?” “I…

      Chapter 160 – Everyone’s Dao (End)

      by Orluros “Is the one you seek inside that pavilion?” The grass was slick with rain, dripping from each blade and pressed beneath his shoes. The Daoist, following behind the qilin beast, stepped out from the forest and cast a glance at the distant pavilion. “Judging from the display, it seems to be a house of high rank.” Walking ahead with the reins in hand, Lu Liangsheng tilted his bamboo hat slightly to the side, and gave a faint “Mm” in reply. “The Yang clan of Chang’an. Their…
