Prologue

 

 

Grey

 

If you are looking for a flawless male character, this is not for you. 

 

I repeat this is not for you. 

If you are looking for that dashing, successful, Romantic, loving, handsome, and perfect man, I am not the one. I am far from being perfect.

 

And if you're thinking I'm going to be somehow redeemed by some woman, sorry not sorry to burst your bubble. I am not redeemable. 

 

Which is why you need to stop reading because I will definitely break your heart and shatter every bit of hope you have for me. But then again I don't care about your feelings. I have never cared for anyone's feelings. I am a self-centered man who only cares for himself and himself alone and in the process, I am about to lose the greatest gift life has ever given to me. 

 

Ava Jones. 

 

But do I still care? 

 

So I am warning you one last time, find something else to read because I will break you and you would curse the day you read this prologue. 

 

 

But if you still want to continue, My name is Grey Storm, and don't say I didn't warn you enough. 

 

 

 

 

 

AVA

 

My name is Ava Jones and I made the greatest mistake of my life by trying to redeem a man I should have given up on. I am fighting for my life beneath an oxygen mask, IV tube connected to my wrist, and the EKG slowly counting down to my last day, hour, minute, and second.

 

I don't know if I'll survive this but I hope and pray that I do. 

It is often said that people who have unfinished business don't die. I hope I don't because I have unfinished business with the man who ruined me, the one who made my life what it is. 

 

Grey Storm. 

 

Please read my story and don't judge me. I did all I did out of love but I loved the wrong person and the consequences became fatal even for my strong-willed body. 

 

Did I learn?

 

I know Grey would have told you not to read this story, typical him. He thinks he's too bad, but I beg to differ. Beneath all that callous attitude, I know there's a sweet soul waiting to be unleashed. 

 

But how do you save someone who doesn't want to be saved? 

 

 

 

Note from Author.

 

Happy ever afters don't exist anymore. It's sadly ever afters. We all can't be Cinderella and the prince, some of us are meant to be Ava and Grey. 

 

 

 

Hello everyone!

    Grandma Teddy held out her old, wrinkling, fragile hand and said to me "Ya ready?" I grabbed her hand in confusion and replied "Hell yes." She sat me down and began to tell the tale. She used to always tell me the story  of the fairy and the human, that fell in love in the forest of Harlin. 
        "Once not too long ago, lived a young beautiful girl in Spain. She loved Spain, she loved everything about her hone. She love how the art filled her brown eyes with color, how the music gave her ears a rhythm to dance too. Once she turned 14 her mother, Esmeralda, sent her to Greece. There in Greece, the child was still so happy, now her small, light body could feel the wonderful water, a cool breeze hit her black wavy hair. Everyday the sun shined in her golden eyes and pale skin. She never fell in love til she moved to the Americas. Mija, it was there she was forced to marry the rich man, Samuel. He never did wrong to her. He was handsome, kind, thoughtful, and considerate. He had blonde hair that shined in light like her eyes, brown like chocolates his eyes were, his skin looked like a that milky chocolate you drink on a cold winter night. But the girl had no sexual attraction to this handsome man..." I interrupted  her in surprise, "Grandma Teddy, this is the story of you and....Grandpa, right? I don't remember the last part. I sat I front of her in confusion and saw the sadness in her eyes. 
      "Oh mi ángel, this is the real story." With a blank expression and sat where grandma put me. "Listen Penelope. Listen to the tale. The young girl saw the man's attractive features but wasn't drawn to them like the letters her mother told her they were. Eventually they both married, in peace, they were great....friends. One night, Samuel told the girl 'Look I like you a lot. I want to have children with you.' The girl told him she wasn't interested in sex. So he forced her into his bed, their friendship was ruined the moment...he said children." Grandma Teddy paused and looked into the sun. I could see from her eyes, tears were going to break through like a cloudy storm. But she took a deep breath and said," The next year was the greatest year of that girl's life. She met them, she met Sun. Sun was the gentlest person she had ever met, they opened so much more to life. They'd go on adventures, play like children, dance around and round, sing like old borrachos. One day the girl took Sun out to a lake in Harlin forest and told Sun,' I don't like sex, I don't want to have it, and I love you very much but I don't feel an urge or desire to do... that. I'm broken or as Samuel says ill.' Sun looked her right in the eyes and said 'That is the dumbest shit I've ever heard. This is time to stupid to understand you. They are broken you, my dear, are not. You are my love and just like I'm not a man nor woman, doesn't make me broken. You not wanting sex doesn't make you broken.' The girl cried a river and Sun just hugged her. Then Sun told her that they had a secret to share. Sun had ran into the shallow of the lake and looked down, They grew wings and pointy ears, they grew a light and impeccable beauty! They took her hand and flew into the air. Later the next year, the girl had birthed a third child and Samuel continued to force himself upon the girl. He found out that Sun and the girl had a romantic relation. One night when Sun and the girl were in Harlin forest, Sun gave the girl a teddy bear. Sun always loved teddy bears... Then, Samuel.... he killed....Sun. He followed her that night. The girl saw her only joy die and she couldn't do anything. Sun's body disappeared, the girl attempted to take her life but Samuel wouldn't allow that. The girl eventually grew old and unhappy until her daughter birthed a baby girl named, Penelope."
      I never knew this. Grandma Teddy always ended the story after the girl met Sun and they ran away flying into the moon. She never told me that she was asexual, and that she didn't always hate grandpa. What the hell?! How could grandpa ever do this to her!? Why? I didn't the tears falling down my face. Grandma Teddy hugged me, I could smell her pine perfume. She told me " Well, mi amor, I'm going to die soon. I'm an old lady and you needed to know the truth that sometimes we need the bad. But thankfully at the end the girl gets to have a memory of Teddy through Penelope." I hugged her, I could feel the cold tears run down back. I giggled and said "Grandma, thanks for coming out, I'm so happy you trust enough to tell me now." She laughed. 
      We both just talked about Sun, Samuel, her, and Mikey. I told her how my brother is a coward. "Ya see! This is why I only talk to ya! My kids and your siblings are bitches and assholes." "Grandma Teddy!" We ended the day in giggles, relief and peace. When I got to my room, I thought to myself that grandma Teddy is a real trooper. To go through so much, she's real strong, how did I come out such a wimp?
    Grandma Teddy has never really established big rules on sneaking out and shit like that. So, I went Harlin forest and it was beautiful. The moon shines otherworldly like here. It was like a bright white crystal in a deep black sky. The stars shined but nothing like the moon, it feels like it's luring you.  I went deeper into the forest until I reached the lake. I could almost imagine Sun dying, Samuel, and Grandma Teddy. I laid down on the ground next to lake, the trees didn't scare me because they looked somewhat....friendly? I looked at the sky, I thought about what grandma Teddy said about fairys. I think after some trauma she just... dreamed of a fairy. Its all pure fiction, perhaps Sun was just a figment of her imagination. Then, my thoughts were interrupted by a sound from deeper into woods, from the darker side.

Ever met a fairy, no? Well, 18 year old Penelope did, listen to the story of two young souls finding love and living through a dream come true. Darling says hi!!

 Well, only for those few states whose loyalty are still on their family. The consequence is, the present communist government and the prime minister are both against on their stand-alone monarch. What drives this further are their misunderstanding on their sovereign territories.
 
Anyway, that is not our story is all about.
 
In an epic love story of an outrageous and naive princess, and his modern courageous but a Casanova knight, is love possible for two different person in exactly two different worlds?
 
"Just to Name a Few"
 
Our epic starts on the simple life of Ch'ing crown princess, Shin-li. Well, just to describe her, let's take a look on this short list:
1. She is not pretty, but certainly beautiful with long, straight, black hair that is always tied by a ponytail.
2. She is easy-going, joyful and fun to be with.
3. She is not a princess type but more deserves to be a female knight with her bow and arrow that are always at her side.
4. She is outrageous and easy go lucky.
5. She always gatecrash their palace just to get along with the commoners.
6. She is certainly not feminine - eats a lot, talks a lot, laughs a lot.
7. She is fond on horses and her favorite sport is archery.
8. She sings . . . sad to say, it is not ideal one just like what everybody thinks it is.
9. Her circle of friends are the boys in the neighborhood.
10. She always skips her lessons.
 
Take note: She hates target shooting - A.LOT.
 
 If a typical princess is the one who always stays inside her room and learning how to be an ideal woman and an ideal wife someday, well, princess Shin-li is not the type that a typical prince charming of most fairy tales dream of.
 
She is a princess who always dream of freedom and enjoyment, away from the critic eyes of the King's Counsel. Being the only child , Shin-li grew up, living her life on wherever or whatever the king and queen chooses for her - what type of clothes she will going to wear or on what food she will going to eat and even on what type of character or personality she should be.
 
Her life is so simple because she always disappoints the whole monarch on her every ways.
 
But, what if it is now already time for the whole kingdom to find for the deserving successor of the throne? And all of a sudden, Shin-li's simple and silent life turn into a whirl wind?
 
Okay, here goes the list of the three "aspiring" prince charming on the rescue:
 
1. Yuan Gheo'to [pronounce as: ge-yo-to; "Gio" for short]
- The easy-go-lucky successor of Yuan clan. He is the son of the king's secretary of state and the best friend of Shin-li. He is her protector and he knows all her flaws. They are best buddies on orgies. Being her only childhood sweetheart, he already loves her ever since. The question is if whether  she feels the same way too?
 
2. Tang Kent-li (English name: Dione Tang)
-a prince charming type, Dione was race in the family of surgeons. As a result, he became one too, with a specialization on cardiovascular surgeries. He grew up on States, though he is a full-blooded Chinese. What is interesting about this man is his great passion on the sport known as archery. Monarchy always attracts his interest and he is familiar on Confucian classics. He is a smart young man who had a great likes on brave girls and is attracted on women that can ride on horses.
 
3. Seto Dom 'yo-gi [pronounce as: Dom-yow-ji]
-often called as Yugi on most characters of this epic. He is the hardheaded, windbag and prime topnotcher Casanova ever lived. He is the son of the prime minister. He likes to bullied people with atmosphere that is far from his world. He do not believes in love and always wants to play because for him, everything are all games - even in terms of hearts. He was born with a silver spoon on his mouth and believes that he already have everything, only except for her, and this girl challenged his pride so much. He had a strong front though loner and deserted inside. He is happy-go-lucky and is engage from one fight after the other. Favorite sport: TARGET.SHOOTING.
 
Now, the biggest question ever is who will be her knight?
 
One warrior princess and three handsome cavaliers. On these three right ups, one is the pretender; the other is the shadow, while the other one left is the knight in shining armor.
Who will emerge victorious? Who will stand up as the best? And most of all, who will wins her heart?
                    Is it the pretender?
                    Or the shadow?
                     Or the knight?
Who is this knight . . . ?

Ch'ing Shin-li, crowned princess to Chinese Monarch will discover love, friendship and faith in  midst of lies, political schemes, and family feuds.

Ji Yuan was laughing, "Most impressive cultivation hero? Haha. This is too easy for me. I've read all the cultivation stories in the Desolate Celestial Fraternity and I'm familiar with all the plots!"
"But first we do need a title first, am I right? How about 'The Great Cultivation Hero'?"
"No, that is too amateur. How about 'The Greatest Cultivation Hero Ever' instead? Haha, it sounds better."
Xiang Li was listening with great anticipation as she nodded, "Yes my Big Brother is the Greatest Cultivation Hero Ever."
"That is for sure, Xiang Li. Haha. There is no doubt about it." Ji Yuan proclaimed proudly. 
"Absolutely!" Xiang Li giggled.
Fairy Anyang whispered secretly to Xiang Li, "Is our master sure that he is able to write something so impressive that he is the greatest cultivation hero ever? The story also has to be the most impressive ever as well."
Xiang Li put her hands on her bosoms as she whispered secretly to her, "In my heart Big Brother is the greatest cultivation hero ever. That is enough already."
She began to giggle, "Maybe I will write a story also for this trial."
Fairy Anyang rolled her eyes, "Keep it to yourself and don't share with me. Or else I afraid that I may puke."
Xiang Li giggled, "One day, you will be impressed by our master."
"Never!" Fairy Anyang hummed coldly. "Did you see the way he is looking lecherously at me when we've only met for the very first time? And he had even lost control."
"That is because you are too beautiful!" Xiang Li giggled with great delight.
Fairy Anyang: …
Ji Yuan was muttering to himself while he started to put his thoughts into writing. "Xiang Li, this will be the greatest cultivation hero that your Big Brother is going to create. Be prepared to be blown away completely! Haha."
Xiang Li warned him, "Be careful of plagiarism."
Ji Yuan frowned, "I am not copying word for word. You need to be better educated. You need to improve upon your lack of knowledge."
He quickly ignored Xiang Li and started writing his epic story; he had always wanted to write an epic cultivation story.
<Ji Yuan a cultivator is born in Glory City, the only city that was well-preserved from the Age of Darkness.>
<He is the solo survivor of a fierce attack by an evil organization and even his girlfriend Jiajia had died in his arms. He was not to lament for too long before he too, was killed by the Evil Emperor and his fiend sage cultivators.>
Xiang Li was stunned. "Big Brother, you've game over in only two paragraphs?"
Ji Yuan laughed, "Of course not!"
<Ji Yuan thought that he was dead until he found out that he was brought back through time when he was only 13 year old!>
Ji Yuan explained with a grin, "Everyone loves transmigration stories! I am now brought back to life!"
Xiang Li blinked her eyes…
<This of course could not happen without the demonic book that he have found in his travel across the Divine Continent, among many mysterious things that he had also found. Even though Ji Yuan is a low talent cultivator but he is very good in finding mysterious treasures with his expert observations.>
<This time he is determined to stop the evil organization, save his city and his girlfriend Jiajia; he is determined to stop the events that occur in 2 years from happening.>
Xiang Li: …
"Big Brother, why are you only a 13 year kid? Aren't you just a 15 year old brat 2 years later?"
Ji Yuan frowned, "All the kids love this type of cultivation story and imagine themselves as a genius cultivator when they are just a kid. Do you think anyone will read my story if we start at an old age and at a high cultivation realm?"
Xiang Li muttered, "But Big Brother, you're trying to impress the three old men. They're not kids."
"Correction!" Ji Yuan rebuked her gently. "They're only the trial spirits. Even though they look old but they are actually young at heart."
Xiang Li muttered weakly, "They are actually very old spirits…"
Ji Yuan was not offended and instead he was laughing jovially, "Do you know why 99.9% of the cultivators have failed this trial in the first place?"
Xiang Li shook her head, "No?"
Ji Yuan answered, "That is because they've forgotten that this is actually the intellect trial! If you base on the appearances of these old men then you are on the wrong track. Therefore in order to pass this trial, we need to write the most popular and most generic cultivation story ever in order to impress them with our cultivation knowledge. Do you remember that they are actually asking to test our cultivation knowledge at the same time too?"
Xiang Li blinked her eyes, "Um…yes?"
"Therefore we are going to write the most epic ever cultivation hero in order to impress them. The cultivation hero will save his city and his girlfriend; that is why he is a 'Hero'." Ji Yuan grinned.
"Um…ok…" Xiang Li muttered. "But do you think that going back to time is unrealistic?"
Ji Yuan laughed, "Remember one of the trial conditions mention that we can write a fictional story. The second most important condition is to impress. It doesn't matter if the cultivation isn't real."
Xiang Li returned a weak smile while Ji Yuan proclaimed loudly, "Just leave the epic writing to me!"
Ji Yuan continued to say, "Do you know why 99.9% of the cultivators have failed this trial? Because they lack the intellect to pass this intellect trial."
Fairy Anyang whispered to Xiang Li, "I think you've better start writing your own version of the cultivation hero to help him. Your master is going to look like an idiot in this trial and he will probably fail his trial."
Xiang Li asked, "Why? Big Brother will never fail any of his trials!"
Fairy Anyang smiled, "That is because he has already failed to impress the two of us with his cultivation hero already."
Xiang Li protested weakly, "Big Brother will never be wrong…"
Fairy Anyang rolled her eyes, "Do you have to deceive yourself like this? Are you in love with him?"
Xiang Li put her palms on her face as she giggled shyly, "How do you know? Hehehe."
Fairy Anyang: …
<Now Ji Yuan found himself in a cultivation class after he had transmigrated. He had instantly recognized familiar faces immediately and saw Yuluo, Little Princess, Qianxue, Feiyue, Chengxi, Yan'Er and of course Jiajia, whom he had thought had died in his arms.>
<There is of course Guo Taiming in the class as well who is always bullying Ji Yuan.>
<Not to mention that Mo Bei is the teacher in charge of the cultivation class now and when Ji Yuan had suddenly transmigrated and had given out a startled voice, Mo Bei began to angrily confronted Ji Yuan. "Adept Ji Yuan, do you have something to say about my class or are you not paying any attention?"
<Ji Yuan suddenly noted that Mo Bei is teaching the class on how to draw mystic talisman so he begins to say, "This thunder talisman has several flaws and is imperfect.">
<Mo Bei immediately frowned, "What nonsense are you saying?! This thunder talisman has been perfected by countless generations of cultivators until it is no longer able to perfect.">
<Because Ji Yuan has the Demonic Book of Darkness, he has foreknowledge of an even perfect talisman.">
Xiang Li asked curiously, "How is it possible for countless generations of cultivators to be lagging behind an ancient book? Are they all idiots? In my trial, I've only the most basic profound cultivation methods…"
Ji Yuan interrupted weakly, "Xiang Li, this is not the real world. In this cultivation, my Demonic Book of Darkness is perfect."
"Um…alright." Xiang Li nodded. "But you're a cultivation hero, am I right? Why use such an evil name for your cheat?"
Ji Yuan laughed, "Because it sounds badass and cool."
Xiang Li rolled her eyes, "Alright then…"
"How did you find this book, you didn't explain." Xiang Li asked again.
Ji Yuan frowned, "I found it during one of my travels. I did mention it."
Xiang Li giggled. "I've forgotten. But you mention that you are a low talent cultivator so how did a low talent cultivator manage to comprehend something so profound as the Demonic Book of Darkness? Is it because anyone can also easily learn it?"
Ji Yuan: …
"That is not the point. Stop interrupting. When I found the Demonic Book of Darkness, its knowledge just open to me because I am the destined cultivation hero, OK?"
Xiang Li rolled her eyes with a weak smile; her Big Brother's points are getting weaker and weaker now. She was only trying to help him to improve upon his writing.
<Ji Yuan immediately draws a new Thunder Talisman on the spot and smiled, "Try it.">
<Immediately Mo Bei is stunned because he can find no flaws in the new Thunder Talisman!>
<Unknown to Ji Yuan and the cultivation class, the senior principals and two of the masters are secret observing the cultivation class; they are all equally surprised that Ji Yuan is able to draw such a perfect Thunder Talisman!>
<Immediately, everyone is awed by Ji Yuan!>
<From that day onward, Ji Yuan is suddenly known as the genius of the cultivation class!>
<All the little maidens in the class are secretly in love with him but Ji Yuan has no time for them; in his mind, he has to cultivate every day to save the city from its impending doom.>
<Whether he is eat, sleep or awake; he is always cultivating at an insane rate and breakthrough every few days.>
"You can breakthrough so easily? Sounds fake." Xiang Li asked curiously.
Ji Yuan frowned. "This is a different cultivation world. I'm going to have level 1 to level 10 attach to each realm level. That is why I can breakthrough every now and then."
"Erm, how many realm levels are there?" Xiang Li asked.
Ji Yuan frowned again, "No one will ask that question at the beginning of the story. Maybe there are 10, maybe there are 20. I add as I think about it. I don't think you ever read a cultivation story in your life."
Xiang Li: …
"But if you don't know the complete realm level at the very start, how do you know how strong your opponents are?"
JI Yuan smiled and explained, "Because the MC of this story will never fight someone who is impossible to beat. Every realm level will be there to awe the readers to think that this is a new awesome realm level that has great disparity to beat from a lower realm level."
Xiang Li asked, "Is it plot armor?"
Ji Yuan laughed, "The MC's golden halo."
Xiang Li said weakly, "What is the difference?"
"Plot armor means someone is always there to save the MC. The MC's golden halo means that the MC will have amazing luck." Ji Yuan laughed.
Xiang Li rolled her eyes; she still doesn't see a difference.
"This MC in this story is going to be super smart, always win, super perfect and have no weakness." Ji Yuan explained coolly to Xiang Li.
"You mean there are no smart villains in the story and they are there to be face-slapped by the MC?" Xiang Li giggled. 
Ji Yuan frowned, "All the villains are super smart! But the MC is the only genius in the story."
"Then how did this MC dies in the future if he is so smart and has the Demonic Book of Darkness?" Xiang Li asked again.
Ji Yuan: …
"Didn't I say that he is a low talent cultivator from the beginning?" 
Xiang Li: …
Fairy Anyang covered her face with her hands as she whispered secretly to Xiang Li, "Our master is just using whatever arguments that can suit him. I got a feeling that he will never get to complete this story because the entire story is broken and he is just writing along when he is there."
Ji Yuan explained as he shook his head while explaining to Xiang Li who appeared to be such a cultivation noob in his eyes, "I've only got the Demonic Book of Darkness at the very last minute so there is no time to grow very powerful. But now I've the perfect opportunity to return to the past and be a perfect cultivation hero."
"This time travel skill looks so easily to be mastered." Xiang Li giggled. 
Ji Yuan growled, "I've told you that the profound skills of the Demonic Book of Darkness revealed everything to me…"
Xiang Li interrupted with more giggles, "Revealed everything toward to you but you still got killed."
Ji Yuan: …
He weakly replied, "Erm, it is only the theory part. I need to reach the proper cultivation realm in order to be truly powerful."
<One day, Ji Yuan is taking a shower in the bathroom when Xue Qianxue has dropped into his bathtub.>
<Xue Qianxue is actually only trying to get Ji Yuan's interest and to peep at him but alas, she has slipped and had accidentally dropped into his bathroom.>
Xiang Li: …
Xiang Li: …
Xiang Li: …
<But Ji Yuan is very cool to it and he calmly tells her to leave. Other than cultivation, he has no other interest.>
<This breaks Xue Qianxue's poor heart because she is now a fangirl of Ji Yuan.>
<But just as she is about to leave, Ji Yuan says to her. "Wait a minute! Are you being afflicted by a strange heat that causes you to have the urge to bath for hours every day?">
<Xue Qianxue gasps, "How do you know?">
<Ji Yuan answered coolly, "That is because you have the Icy Divine Body and you've been trying to practice the fire profound skills to keep your icy body in check, am I right? Your upper axis accupoint and your middle axis accupoint, do you feel discomfort in those areas? And it gets increasing painful as times go by. If I am not wrong, you won't live past 18 because of this.">
<Xue Qianxue gasps, "How do you know?">
<Ji Yuan calmly says, "Only I can help you to cure you of your afflictions. Now remove your clothes and I will apply the cure for you.">
Xiang Li: …
"Big Brother, isn't this too lewd for age 13-15 readers?" 
Ji Yuan laughed jovially, "The readers will love it, especially the three dirty old men that I am writing to impress. Haha."
Xiang Li: …
Xiang Li: …
Xiang Li: …
Xiang Li said weakly, "Big Brother, I am thinking that…"
"You are already thinking that this cultivation hero is going to be super awesome, am I right?" Ji Yuan laughed jovially. "He is completely perfect."
Xiang Li rolled her eyes before saying weakly, "Well, please continue…"
<Xue Qianxue looks at Ji Yuan in the eyes and hesitates for a while. But only for a while before she says to Ji Yuan, "I will strip for you to take a look. I trust you.">
<Ji Yuan said coolly, "I am a perfect gentleman. I will not do anything funny. You can trust me to cure you or you can take away my life!"
<Xue Qianxue lowers her head to ask shyly, "Can you really cure me?">
<Ji Yuan answers coolly, "I can surely cure you with my advance medical knowledge. My master is a medical saint.">
Ji Yuan said to Xiang Li, "After I've cured her after giving her several treatments, she will fall madly in love with me."
Xiang Li smiled weakly, "So who is the second maiden that you want to write about?"
Ji Yuan laughed jovially as he started to smile wryly, "Jiajia. In my story, I'll be the one screwing her and not the other hand. And I will be the super smart cultivator instead of her."
Xiang Li: …
Xiang Li: …
Xiang Li: …
"Big Brother, why is that I'm thinking that you're actually writing a revenge story on the heroines instead?" Xiang Li weakly said to Ji Yuan.
Ji Yuan denied it immediately, "Rubbish! I'm not that petty!"

Sword Saint Ji Yuan has just breakthrough to the lofty seventh realm saint level after a period of 100 years. When he returns to his celestial clan where he was once the Sword Saint, he has found out that many things have changed.

The worst thing had happened to him; he had lost his beautiful beard and in the Desolate Celestial Fraternity, a beardless cultivator is to be scorned and despised! 

This is actually a xianxia romance story about an unromantic cultivator  who likes his beard and the romantic leading maidens who all hates his beard. 

There are a total of seven celestial levels in order to cultivate as a celestial cultivator; Practitioner, Master Practitioner, Enlighten Celestial, Immortal Celestial, Golden Celestial, Golden Supremacy and Sacred Saint.



Unknown's POV:
I watch her from afar everything she did, how she learned to hold the tears back, hold the smiles and laugh back, how she learned there is no love for her in this world but she was so wrong because there was so much of love waiting for her only if she could look past the pain. 
She looks strong, cold, and without emotions, because she believes showing emotions shows weaknesses.
She is tired of all the drama, hate, tired of not being good enough, tired of being blamed for what she knows nothing about,?tried for being punished, and left alone to bear the heartbreak.
But she refuses to look dramatic, weak, and attention-seeking, she refuses to let them see her cry only to be known as a girl without a heart. 
She locks it deep down, acts like she is used to the pain but cries silently so everyone thinks she gives no shit about what they do to her. 
She keeps telling herself and everyone she has no problems and she has learned to accept her fate because it was a curse given to her by the moon goddess herself. 
But all she really wants is Love. 
But I am still to be blamed for the pain she keeps inside, the pain that haunts her dreams, that gives her nightmares, the pain eating her slowly, and making her numb to anything and everything.
I left forgetting the little girl without anyone but a stranger to care for her,? I left thinking of my breaking heart but forgetting the little pup who needs me more. 
I was too selfish to understand the promise I made building hatred between two innocent wolfs.
I refuse to learn the hidden truth about the pup who killed her mother to live but it might be too late to find out the truth.
I spend time nursing my broken heart?leaving the most important things of all not caring to look back just for once. 
I left without looking back because I was too weak to care, maybe she was right building walls can make you avoid the pain coming but can never hide the heartbreak.
Because I left without making a promise of coming back she lost her soul,?she lost her heart to the darkness in her, she lost her will and she lost her joy. 
But once again I never hurt her because I left her with her guardian to take care of her, to love her and to be her strength when needed. 
She feels all alone even though she has someone protecting her because as they say a mother's love is the greatest.
She keeps avoiding love because she has so much pain in her to ever live or believe in love. 
She was meant to feel pain at what cost, to save these heartless werewolves and other supernatural beings. 
She lives a life of lie believing it the truth, she doesn't know how much strength and power she has all because she believes in the weaker side of her.
She sees herself as a monster ready to kill at any given time, ready to attack and destroy. 
She sees herself unfortunate and cursed for the sins she never committed or rather committed.
She has learned to accept anything that comes her way even bad and good as her share of the sins and innocent she killed.
But she has never been told pain gives strength but has always believed weakness gives pain. 
I spent my time healing my broken heart and now spending my time learning to heal her broken heart which is not mine to heal. 
She was made to kill her mother during birth to make the saying the death of the mother gives strength to the chosen female pup. 
Life has to end for life to begin I never understood what Alisa meant until now.
She the chosen female pup the legend talks of, the chosen female pup is meant to kill her mother and trained by her guardian, she was meant to feel immense pain no being is ever allowed to feel and also grow in strength.
The chosen female pup is met to meet the chosen male pup immediately after her eighteenth birthday.
The male will grow in immense strength and kept under the guidance of its guardian.
They will meet and will not fall in love at first sight but rather have hatred for each other only the mate pull of their local will bring them together, a pull that either brings love or pain, a pull that brings forth the greatest love ever know or the most heartbroken story told.
Together they will fight the upcoming battle putting an end to the endless war.
But the legend never spoke of the chosen male being the alpha king, it keeps me in doubt of my knowledge I acquired over the years.
But once again we have never been told of the legend of chosen lycans because it was a secret to be uncovered by the bookkeeper.
I can only hope in the direction giving by the moon goddess to me. 
"madam we got information that Kate is losing her strength and the full moon is tomorrow, " says one of my men called London.
"okay, London you may leave," I say as I dismiss him. 
Once again I ask myself at what cost does she has to feel this pain, pain that draws her to the darkest part of her, a place of no return.
She is scared a switch may turn off somewhere and all she is left with is the darkness of her mind, but each time it seems like she sinks deeper and deeper.
She is scared... Terrified that one day she won't make it back up and there will be no one to help not even her mate. 
It a game of loosing to win,
Or wining to lose. 



"A legend was written years ago of two white lycan made to be mate, to love-hate, fight but also made to be together for the supernatural being betterment.                                                                                                                                             
                                                                                                                                                                                     
    Kate David is a lycan who grew up without the devotion of a mother, father, and even by her brother except by the woman she calls grandma. she anyhow believes she doesn't need a mate for it causes agony and weakness.                                                                                                                                                                                                
                                                                                                                                                                         
         Lawrence Clifford king of kings has been waiting for his mate but gave up ever finding his mate.                                                                                                                                                                                                       
          
     what happens when these two are meant to be together, will Kate ever learn to love and we both accept each other or will they run away from fate.                                           

 Join Kate and Lawrence in their adventure through grief, wrath, and most importantly love.  A story filled with heartbreak and betrayal.
"

Hearing the whole story from Lifen, Daiyu was no more in her angry mode, instead, she burst into a big laughter. 

Lifen was dumbfounded, she didn't expect this type of reaction from her. She thought Daiyu would be cursing Deming for behaving like that. 

She widened her eyes at Daiyu, "You are making fun of me. Where is your love for me? I shouldn't have told you all that".

Daiyu held her laughter and responded to the cute looking Lifen in front of her, " Awwww, my sweet little baby, I am not laughing at you, I am laughing at your love story. Isn't this what you have dreamt every day, a love story? Now it is at your door knocking for you."

"I am happy for you but... I am not sure whether your love story will be romantic or.... a comedy?" Daiyu chuckled and then burst into laughter again. 

"You...." Lifen snorted and picked a pillow from the bed to charge at Daiyu. 

Soon there were soft white feathers all over the room. The maids outside the room were now relaxed hearing their giggles inside.

After a tough pillow fight, Daiyu, and Lifen laid on the bed all exhausted. 

"I am missing Guang. She wouldn't be this insane like you after hearing the evil deeds of Deming. I am going to complain to her about you. When is she coming back?" Lifen asked. 

"Hahahahaha... I have called her before. She already knew half of the story. She was as stunned as me after listening but she didn't reply much. She just told me that she will be back by tomorrow evening. I was excited to see her reaction after knowing about your fanatical lover's deeds."

Daiyu again burst into laughter recalling the whole story.

_______________________

At Wang palace, 

Deming was seated on the sofa with a poker face. He suddenly took out his phone and made a call, "Murphy, come to Wang Palace right now."

Murphy was half asleep when he received the call at midnight. He was used to this kind of behavior of Deming.

He still enquired, "At this right moment, Boss? It's already midnight. Can't we deal with it tomorrow?"

The reply was as expected, "No"

After 15 minutes,  

A white car entered the Wang Palace main gate and stopped before the entrance. 

Murphy stepped out of the car, dressed in his formal attire and there was no sign of sleepiness in his eyes. He directly went inside the hall and found Deming sitting at the home-bar section of the hall, with a glass of wine in his hand. 

He reached him and asked politely, "How can I help you, Boss?"

Few moments passed but there was no reply from him. Murphy squinted his eyes to get through his expressions but it didn't work as he was holding a poker face.

Few more moments passed like that, Deming was just calmly sipping his wine slowly.

Murphy thought in his heart, 'What the hell is wrong with him? He had called me at this hour just to show off his skills of sipping wine. Doesn't he already know? I have to work extra hard to cover up his childish acts which he did often and I need rest. After all, I'm human, not a devil-like him".

Slowly Deming turned his head to look at Murphy. 

Murphy was dazed, it was the first time he had seen Deming's eyes full of disappointment as if he had lost the greatest opportunity of his life. As if he has lost the most important battle of his life.

Murphy suddenly switched on his father mode and asked in a contented tone, "What happened today? Why are you like this? What made you so disappointed?"

But the reply he got from Deming made him freeze for a few seconds. He was stunned when he heard him say, "Murphy, What do you think about me? Just assume yourself a girl and tell me how would you reply if I wanted you to be my girlfriend if I want to date you?"

Murphy was dumbfounded. He didn't ever expected this type of question approaching him and that too from Deming.

Imagine when your soulmate turns to be the destroyer of your life. But while destroying you completely, he falls in love with you. Will you be able to forgive his mistakes or will you be leaving him behind.

This is a story of a girl 'Lifen ' who always thinks positive. To her, the most important was one's heart where love exist. Her life took unexpected turns when she meet Wang Deming, the young CEO of Wang Corporations and fell in love with him.

But the night, she prepared herself to confess her feelings towards him, was the most unlucky night for her. She got a heartbreak and .......

The rest story you will get to know when you read it guys. I can confirm one thing to you...the story will have a happy ending for sure but the way of reaching that goal will give you emotional roller coaster rides.

This is my first story and I am really inexperienced. Please bear with my mistakes and do support the story. I will try not to diappoint you all. And about the cover of the novel is taken from google and is being edited a little-bit by me!!

Book Two
~~~~~~~~
Hello again my friends it seems you've made it thus far in my tale and now we will close the covers of the first book of my tale and began now to open the second book's cover and reveal its story and the message of his tale. For Marcus is quite the fox, if I must say so myself, now I'm not just referring to looks though as he has always had a special charm to him that can really make one's heart sore. Now it seems he has really began to draw some attention towards himself both good and no so good. There have also been a few good temptations along the way for him, yet these trials are still only just the beginning and will only keep coming as will the temptations. Except they will only grow stronger with each passing moment. Soon it may just be too much for him to resist for too much longer. This will indeed be a sign to come of his as well as those around him's greatest hour.
Now before you ask no I've not met him yet nor any of the other members of the prophesied hero team. I haven't even met any of his friends at this point yet. So none of what you've read nor will be reading has come from me personally witnessing the events as this was all told to me by Marcus or his friends. Now I wish I would've been a part of their lives back then because well to be honest I'd love to be one of those temptations of matting with for really any of them while they were still innocent and well adorable and not so battle worn and closed hearted. Yet fate wouldn't have things that way as it will still be some time before I meet this lovely fox or any of his friends.
This also means that once more my pass must stay a mystery thus no I still can't tell you really anything about me because again you really wont know or understand what any of it means so why even bother to distract you from the tale at paw with such a minor details of who I am other then being the story teller of this wonderful tale. Especially since it is the story you've paid to read and not my boring and lame backstory or the simplicity of my  family tree. Maybe at the end of my tale I'll be able to reveal all of these things to you but for now it would just be a distraction and not what you really want right now. So for now just know that I'm a friend of Marcus and his band of sexy and unique companions.
So just as I opened the first book with a question it is only fitting for me to do so once again with this book here except this time I'm going to pose two questions to you for these two questions as are their answers, they are both equal and two sides of the same coin as the saying goes.
Question Number One: What is evil?
I know its a loaded question for to each person this has its very own answer that gives it more answers then my first question. You see to some people evil is the manifestation of the darkness that consumes everything in it's path. While to others it is whatever is person or thing that is standing between them and what they consider to be ultimate success. Yet there are some who consider evil to be just the mushy lovey dovey puke inducing things in the world.
 Some yet may even go as far as to say the corperate world of controlling goods and services is the greatest of evils or that the unknown things of this world or the world that is yet to come are the greatest of all evils. In this book our heroes will touch on this factor as well as facing the many forms of evil or at least the things which our heroes believe to be evil.
As for me, the meaning of evil is what each and everyone of us allow it to be. A force to which things are corrupted and ruined. An excuse for our mishaps and failures. Evil is blind and does not choose it's victims by race, gender, sexuality, nor status. No, true evils attacks all equally even when it doesn't seem that it at first does.
Question Number Two: What is good?
As the counter part of evil it is often assumed that good is just that, the opposite of evil, yet to say. This would only be giving you half of the answer thus here is what happens when this question is asked first before the question on what is evil.
Some then declare that good is the majestic shinning light of hope, peace and love throughout all the land and even within everyone of us. Now to other people good is getting everything one could ever dream for or want. This of course does lead to what you can more then likely see to be a problem. See this explanation would truly only lead to a world full of chaos and destruction. 
For me what the meaning of good is the hope and love that is in all of us as well as the fact that everything is going to work out in the end. I know I could use many other terms instead of love and hope but I believe that they fit best for hope always makes one stronger and able to face the hardest of trials, while love is what helps us through our greatest fears and worries. Without hope and love we would only just cower and hide. This is a lesion my father once taught me.
This is why good must always fight evil and vise versa. For one person's evil is another's good. We can't say who is right and who is wrong. No, ll we can say is what is good and evil to us and hope for the best. This is why nations and people go to war. It is why heroes are born and justice delivered. Good verse evil, right verse wrong. The problem is not as simple as one might think for my good may be your evil and your good my be someone else's evil. So how does one combat those odds?
Well that is simple for it was laid down for us long ago before the birth of the four sisters and their appointment over he four realms. Their father was in charge and he laid down the law on what he said was good and what was evil, but now as he sleeps and his daughters all reign in their own realms they have forgotten their father's laws and made new laws that fit their definitions of good and evil. This is what has now lead to the true of our tale. 
War will soon come as the four sisters begin to fight over who is right and who is wrong. With this war will bring heroes for each of them and much innocent bloodshed. Yet if their father is awaken then it will take unity and a willing sacrifice to bring his wrathful rage and destruction to an end. Thus a prophecy was given to halt this before it could ever begin. The Paladins were formed of servants of all four sisters in hopes of keeping peace.
Yet in the first war they fell and luckily their father wasn't awoken. Now the Paladin have long faded into the legends and just as they have so has the peace between the sisters for the winds of war are stirring in the north as a darkness begins to spread. Can hope prevail or will it too fall to the darkness? Only time will truly tell but as long as there is but a spark of hope, then peace and love can prevail.
This concludes your history and intro into the next book in our tale. I do apologize for it being so long but my friends may a point to emphasize the importance of good and evil and how they are indeed two sides of the same coin and that you can't have one without the other nor could peace abound without wars. You can't have a mountain unless you have at least two valleys on either side of it. Our heroes will soon see this to be as they will have to learn to love, and even loose those they loved for war has come to their peaceful land and the best part about a valley is that all around you is hope and mountains. It only can get better.
Our friends will soon see this to be true as the challenges ahead will be hard and full of hurt yet as long as they keep their eyes forward hope will abound and love will carry them out of the valley and onto the mountain top.


Darkness rules the land since the sacred order of the Paladin vanished for to the point their tales are now but legends and none now live who’ve seen a Paladin let alone known someone who has. Maybe they never really existed but if they do the people of Arcadia Nine could really use their help.

This is the tale of a young man who chooses that weather they are real or not he was done being pushed around and would from this point forward stand up against the darkness.

Such ended the tale of the hero. The Dagfrid had many times told of his exploits. But it always ended with him dying at the end. It was a story of love and terror. A story of pride and honour. It was a tale of a kingdom. The Hero had seen all of his friends perish before him, some even in his arms. But while he was a Hero, he was not a saviour. He couldn't grant eternal life, much less youth. All of his attempts had led to failure.

What he could do instead was fight. When he was a kid, he would always be fighting the others on the farm. Such was the story she had been told as a child, and had never once doubted it. The story came from her parents, and had been passed down to them by theirs. It was the best story she had ever been told, and she would be asked to start over the day after.

As the story ended, Njal thought about his grandfather. He had died a few years ago after being forced to harvest the Duke's fields together with the rest of the boys and men in the family. It had been the last day they shared. He even saw him lie on the ground in the scorching summer heat. All around him lied down their tools to help him. But it was too little too late. He lay there, still sweating, dirty beneath the straws he was holding, not letting go even in death.

This last moment of his only lasted a short amount of time. A guard kicked him away, and forced the rest onto the fields again and dragging the body away as not to have it distract.

One day Njal and his brothers might suffer the same fate. The greatest fear of his was seeing his kin die in front of him again. His disdain for the Knight and his followers only grew bigger and stronger every time he would think back, or think forward. 

His newly born brother, Eigil, only months old could suffer the same fate as his grandfather, and he likely wouldn't even know. Njal was sure that he would never mention the experience to such a pure and young mind.

***

It was his oldest sister, Ingrid, who was sixteen that cooked their food. She was strong enough to carry water and beer for long distances, yet still the most gentle of the family. She was soon to be married so she made sure to carry herself beautifully. Such has she agreed to. 

"Perfect timing", she said slightly annoyed as she carefully closed the clay pot once again. "The food will be finished shortly, so you will just have time to get over his death again."  

The hero had died twice this month already, and it seemed his demise was on its way again soon enough.

But once she poured the soup in their bowls, the atmosphere quickly became dominated by hunger, happiness and small talk. The Hero's journey was temporary but food would stay forever.

Previously living a very cushy life, Njal has been given a caravan by his filthy rich parents. They deemed their eldest spawn unfit to take after themselves, and made him experience the world. Let's see if his very self centered point of view ever changes...
