Chapter 35 Flurry of Saber Strokes in the Night
Qian Shuhua was sprawled at one side of the street and kept vomiting as she bent over. She was seeing stars, and her breath reeked of alcohol.
She had seen her fair share of fights before, but they were child's play. The eldest daughter of the Qian family had not witnessed any real bloodshed before.
As such, she opened her eyes wide when Ye Que asked if she had seen people being killed before.
Many shifty figures appeared in the skies, and Ye Que stood in the middle of them.
The group of people with felt caps had come for revenge, and their leader shouted as he raised the saber that was hanging from his waist. They swooped down from the roofs in all directions.
"Sabers are not meant to be wielded in this manner."
Ye Que said to his attackers, before reaching out with his bare right hand to grab hold of the saber of their leader with amazing speed. At the same time, his left leg moved forwar

Both Qian Shuxiao and Qian Shuhua did not behave like a respectable master or mistress in Qian Manor. One was an infamous rich playboy, while the other was a lady well-known for causing trouble and kicking up a big fuss. Now, they were considering training with Ye Que. Throughout the entire night, Qian Manor was filled with noise and commotion. The brouhaha finally stopped when dawn came. The lush garden that Ye Que resided in had undergone a complete makeover. The garden was gone, and the red pavilion was completely removed. Even the fish pond in front of Ye Que's room had been filled up overnight. Taking their places were three ponds of equal height. They were arranged in a triangular formation, and in its middle was a huge cauldron about the height of two people. Three bronze pipes led out of it into the ponds. The first batch of medicinal herbs, in the shopping list which Ye Que gav

The technique Ye Que used to create the herbal pools was modified from a basic method the Demon Race used to refine their bodies. It was a considerably brutal method of reversing one's undesirable physical attributes. On the first day, the temperature of the pools was only raised by a little. As time went on, the potency of the medicine would increase, and their willpower would be tested even more. Their bones would be hardened. Their tendons would be toughened up. One could imagine how much pain they had to go through. If one could withstand such torment for 30 days, the torture in prisons would be chicken feed. Of course, to Ye Que, the impact of the medicine on his body was negligible. His qi storage area and the pool of divine energy were many times larger than that of ordinary humans. There were many times when he felt that the herbs should have been more potent. With the help of t

"In times of trouble." "The daring will profit." "This may not be a bad thing." Ye Que said as he drank a sip of apricot wine, before turning toward Qian Shuxiao. "Don't look at me like that. Do you think that cultivation only applies to meditate deep in the mountains?" "Wrong!" "You're hugely mistaken!" "The real Cultivation World is filled with darkness and filth. Every place in it is filled with lies and violence. Let me tell you, nearly all of the largest sects were created with sword and dagger." "Both of you know very well how many herbs we've used up in the past month just to get you into the Pre-celestial Realm. Do you think that cultivation alone will bring you all the herbs we need? Breaking into the Post-celestial and Psychic Realms will take more than herbs. If you want to achieve that quickly and bec
Late Night Tales Of The Capital Chapter 39 Searching Everywhere
In the pitch black forest. It was dark and obscured from sight. A murderous spider web appeared out of nowhere. The riders sped toward the web, and they were caught unawares. Their leader's horse was directly cut into two by the web, and it tumbled onto the ground, sending the leader flying. "An ambush!" The leader shouted as he drew his saber. The horses began neighing in fright. "You people can leave, but your items have to remain behind." A hoarse warning was issued from the woods. At the same time, an extremely thin strand of web flew silently toward the last rider's throat under cover of darkness and rain. The man had wanted to shout for help after being attacked, but it was too late. Eight brown limbs appeared behind the entire group of riders and pierced cleanly through the man's chest, before they flung his corpse out with great force, as if it
Late Night Tales Of The Capital Chapter 40. The Demon's Smile
Chunyu's palace was located on the Taifeng Avenue of Luoyang city. It was also the house of the second prince in the dynasty. He Fei, the Right Vice Minister of the Court of Judicial Review, just came on a visit by himself at daybreak. The second prince Li Chunyu was sitting at the owner's position of the main hall with a sulky face. How could he be not sulky when three full boxes of spirit stones disappeared overnight? He felt heartache though he was a prince. As arranged, the spirit stones should be delivered at Chunyu's palace before 21 o'clock yesterday. However, there was no spirit stone being delivered. If they had been in trouble, someone should come back to send a message, but there was not. "Your Highness. He Fei, the Right Vice Minister of Court of Judicial Review, is here asking for admission." The butler said cautiously, arching his back. "Let him in." Li Chunyu adjusted his emotion
Late Night Tales Of The Capital Chapter 41 The Deep Abyss of Desire
The Salt Commission Square was completely silent, and the smell of blood pervading the air grew stronger. The burly man who was beheaded had completely bled out. Still, no one dared to come forward, and no one dared to moan in pain again. No one even dared to move a finger. Ye Que sat pristinely in front of them, and he looked indifferent as usual. He was grinning, but to the others, he looked as terrible as an evil demon. This was truly indiscriminate killing on his part; even demonic beasts would not smile when they feasted on humans. The lower the rank of ruffian, the more he would believe the theory of 'winner takes all'. The person who was the strongest had the right to lead. It was real, direct and effective. One hour passed by very quickly. When the door opened again, the group of burly men lying on the floor felt as if a huge stone was lifted off their backs; it was very obvious. They were ge
Late Night Tales Of The Capital Chapter 42 Two Paths
Ye Que spent three entire days and nights to consolidate all of the gangs in the entire Luoyang City under his wing. It was not huge news, but it did not go under the radar either. Some people or organizations were bound to find out, such as the Court of Judicial Review. The ruffians were originally under the jurisdiction of the Court of Judicial Review. It would allocate those sort of tasks that were unspeakable or did not require any technical expertise to them, and in turn, they would be somewhat protected by it if they stayed within the law. However, overnight, 80 percent of them had switched allegiance to another faction, and the Court of Judicial Review was paying considerable attention to the matter now. They felt as if someone had pulled the rug out from underneath their feet. Of course, the entire matter was settled very quickly. That very afternoon, Qian Shuxiao brought taels of silver to the Court to smooth things ov
Late Night Tales Of The Capital Chapter 43 How Many Flowers Fell as We Dreamed
The rising northern wind swept the yellow sand beyond the Great Wall and blew along the winding Luo River to invade Luoyang in a single night. Snow ceased to fall in the middle of April, while the end of April and beginning of May brought an end to the frost. Life began flourishing at the beginning of summer but the resentful middle of May cast a dry spell on the farmland. Early June, however, was silent and still. During this time, Ye Que continued making Qian Shuhua practice making a 90-degree jab. However, the spear became heavier and longer over time. Thanks to him, what little gentleness and beauty left in her was refined into gallantry and intrepidity. Not even an inch of fair skin could be found on her body; all of her was now a bronze color. The members of the Divine Sect had also increased from the original three to several hundred to the current thousands. Of course, the sect was no match for those top-notch Truth-cul
