Sen couldn’t believe his eyes when the second set of Soaring Skies cultivators arrived. It seemed that whoever was in charge thought the first group had been incompetent, because they sent anothe...
2023-06-24 05:48:30 +0000 UTC View PostIn the end, Lifen’s mother took Sen’s advice. What customers were still at the Silver Crane were sent home. The employees who had somewhere else to go, went there. The guards fetched water by t...
2023-06-23 17:31:12 +0000 UTC View PostOnce they reentered the city, Sen gave Lifen a sheepish look.
“I’m sorry,” he said.
“For what?”
“I don’t think I did you or the Silver Crane any favors there.”
... 2023-06-23 06:04:22 +0000 UTC View PostSen bought himself a few minutes by cleaning up the impromptu campsite. Once he had everything stowed again, though, there was not getting around it. Heaving a small breath, he turned to look at Li...
2023-06-23 00:41:50 +0000 UTC View PostHey everybody, there will be two chapters today. The first chapter will just happen a little later in the day than usual. I was up stupid late doing edits on Vol 1 for the publisher, then got hit w...
2023-06-22 13:07:14 +0000 UTC View PostSen resisted the urge to start yelling at the heavens, but only because he had a number of more pressing concerns. Unlike the advancement in Orchard’s reach, safety was not a short run away. It w...
2023-06-22 00:47:34 +0000 UTC View PostWith his minor business settled for the day, Sen and Sun Lifen left Grandmother Lu’s shop. Sen suspected that the employees who knew who he was were greatly relieved by that. He glanced over at t...

This was dinner last night. Pan seared salmon, roasted asparagus, and a cucumber, tomato, and avocado salad.
2023-06-21 12:31:25 +0000 UTC View PostOkay, so, I've been asked a few times about a Discord for Unintended Cultivator. Honestly, I've been really hesitant to entertain the idea because I really only started using Discord about three we...
2023-06-21 03:19:06 +0000 UTC View PostSen woke up the next morning with Sun Lifen wrapped around him. He hadn’t planned on having company the night before. In fact, he hadn’t planned on anything except maybe getting something to ea...
2023-06-21 01:20:19 +0000 UTC View PostSen had only planned to soak in the bath long enough to extract some healing from the plants. Yet, once she got past her initial surprise at his status as a cultivator, Sun Lifen became quite conve...
2023-06-20 15:20:13 +0000 UTC View PostOne moment, Sen was standing there. The next he was being ushered into the back of the establishment where he passed rooms that often seemed to have a preposterous amount of decoration, and a host ...
2023-06-20 02:48:58 +0000 UTC View PostSen didn’t maintain his absolute isolation stance the rest of the way to Emperor’s Bay, but he also didn’t make a point of interacting with anyone. He focused mostly on speed, only occasional...
2023-06-19 22:04:47 +0000 UTC View PostLo Meifeng was frustrated. Orders had come down from the top, the very top, that some kid was supposed to be kept under quiet observation, assisted if absolutely necessary, and efforts mad...
2023-06-18 22:46:16 +0000 UTC View PostFor the next three days, Sen used his quingong technique almost non-stop, keeping it right at the edge of what his passive qi gathering could support. He stopped for nothing, often diverting into t...
2023-06-18 17:13:56 +0000 UTC View PostI realize that I never set out a formal policy about the comments section, but I feel like I need to set out at least a few guidelines about what is and isn't acceptable.
Disagreeing about wh...
2023-06-18 06:19:10 +0000 UTC View PostSen knew that using the liquid qi would make Heavens’ Rebuke more powerful, but he hadn’t fully appreciated how much more potent it would become. Add that in with the wrong balance between the ...
2023-06-18 05:55:31 +0000 UTC View PostSen didn’t have a lot of qi to work with, so he decided that he wasn’t going to bother with complicated qi techniques. He wasn’t going let Changpu use them either. Sen could feel the sect cul...
2023-06-17 16:51:27 +0000 UTC View PostSen had been right about what to expect. As soon as he stopped speaking, questions started pelting him like hail. Of course, he couldn’t really understand any of the questions because the Soaring...
2023-06-17 04:06:51 +0000 UTC View PostSen woke up, which surprised him a little. Watching part of the town’s stone wall simply disintegrate into a rain of fast-moving projectiles had left him with the cold certainty that he was about...
2023-06-16 22:05:11 +0000 UTC View PostHey guys, chapters are coming today. I got sucked into a telehealth thing to renew my migraine medication prescription. That's turned into a whole secondary thing with this sprawling online survey ...
2023-06-16 18:40:37 +0000 UTC View PostThe knowledge that the bird spirit beasts needed to go first did not fill Sen with happy feelings. To get the birds, he needed to limit visibility from the air in a way that didn’t pin down his e...
2023-06-16 03:02:16 +0000 UTC View PostSen leaned up against the wall and pressed a hand to his side. He could feel warm blood trickling between the fingers. His side wasn’t his only injury. It wasn’t even his worst injury. At least...
2023-06-15 14:07:42 +0000 UTC View PostBeya followed Kalan onto the ship. He headed to the bridge first and asked Em to assemble the appropriate data and recordings. That was pure theater since Kala would do the actual work, but he’d ...
2023-06-15 07:07:32 +0000 UTC View PostKalan had given serious consideration to running down the man in the hallway. He was confident he could have done it. He was far less confident he could have done it without drawing a lot of unwant...
2023-06-15 06:39:50 +0000 UTC View PostThe longer Sen stayed in the town, the more unsettled he became. It wasn’t a huge place, probably only home to a few thousand people. At least, that was Sen’s best guess. Of course, any place t...
2023-06-14 23:11:03 +0000 UTC View PostOn previous days, Sen had been making only half-hearted attempts to avoid the Soaring Skies sect members. While he hadn’t especially wanted their company, he also hadn’t worried that they were ...
2023-06-14 14:05:25 +0000 UTC View PostWhen Sen finally roused himself the next morning, he felt odd. It took him almost three full minutes to understand what had changed. He felt relaxed, possibly for the first time as an adul...
2023-06-13 22:56:57 +0000 UTC View PostDespite Sen’s best intentions to simply avoid the Soaring Skies sect members, it turned out to be a lot more difficult to achieve in practice than he expected. While he could hide from t...
