Chapter 85 - An Old Governor’s Tales
Mao Shaoqi had served as the governor of Whitewall City for nearly a decade. When he first assumed office, Whitewall was merely a medium-sized town, though some still referred to it as such out of habit. In truth, it had burgeoned into a bustling city, especially during the summer months when merchants flooded its streets.

Chapter 84 - Fixing Problems The Xianxia Way
The two newcomers were notably younger than the governors and retained a full head of black hair. One of them sported short hair and possessed a stockier build with a square jaw, donned in a striking red robe. Meanwhile, the other cut a tall, thin figure, resembling a stereotypical cultivator with his long hair tied in a...

Chapter 83 - Avengers Assemble!
I observed the old man, who appeared to be in his fifties. Based on the Qi around him, it felt like he was in the upper stages of Qi Gathering, somewhere around the peak, no doubt. Song Song had sent me here for a reason, and I doubted it was to handle some displeased local politicians.
As I opened my mouth to speak, the...

Chapter 82 - Petty Rivalries and How To Solve Them
I couldn't help but stare at the white marble gate; they were giant and looked big enough to fit a large truck, though that was widely useless since there were no trucks in this world.
Nevertheless, with their size, the gate was undoubtedly heavy—something that even a dozen humans would have di...

Chapter 81 - Plan: Paper Diamond
With Hu Jin involved, anything could be possible, and no matter the danger, the grandpa in the ring would save him. Sadly, I did not have that privilege. So, I had to plan things through and take some countermeasures.
In this case, the worst-case scenario was that someone was leading these monstrous beasts. Usuall...

I like to do these after the new chapter is out. It makes them easier to put up with.
Anyway, Patreon updated recently, and it somehow gave access to all the content to all paying members, and I had to fix that manually. The Silver and Gold Tier members might not have seen anything weird.

Chapter 80 - A Degree in Monsterology!
Song Song's intensity continued to increase, reaching a point where the tree-like monstrous beasts began writhing in discomfort.
However, they weren't the only ones affected; the rest of our team also appeared to be in poor condition. Some were vomiting, while others shook uncontrollably, overtaken by irrational fear.

A soft greenish glow surrounded my hands, shimmering in and out of existence, leaving behind a tingling sensation. As I tried to keep my fists up, two spherical barriers the size of my head formed around them. No matter how much I concentrated, I wasn't quite adept like a Qi Gathering Cultivator, where I could freely control my Qi.
