Alright guys. It's been a while since I've done anything with this series, and I'm sorry for that. To make up for it, I'm taking back my work from the publisher I've worked through, they were not what I was expecting. Instead, I'll be putting all of my work back on my old page And all 125 chapters I have at this time will be 100% free. I haven't been paid a dime for my work since 2018, so why should you have to pay one, am I right? As for updates, I've been thinking a lot about where to go with this story. For all of you that have read it, I'm sure you know what I'm planning by now. For those who haven't, just get to the chapter "A Brief History Lesson" to get a little back story on my shiny little world, then you'll be able to guess what comes next, at least the gist of it. So, for all of you who have supported me over the years on this profile, thank you, and most of all, I apologize. I've already posted into the paywalled chapters within my other profile and will continue to do so tonight until I drop. I came up with a new cover art which I believe captures Hong Zhao well enough, let me know what you think!

Before you say anything I just wanna say that I haven’t read this book yet! Nope, not even a single chapter title! Then why am I giving this a 5 star review you may be wandering... well to those who are suspicious- no I’m not an alternate account to some shameless author but it’s because I read the book’s title which is ‘ Red talon piercing the darkness’ and not ‘Red talon piercing the heavens’ cuz the heavens have been pierced by so many MCs it became generic. I’m here to support change because I want something new and non-cliché! Leave a like to show your support so that others can see this! We need to do this if we’re gonna get non-cliché novels anytime soon dammit.

Well.. I did try to get the free chapters back up to 50, but my contracted publicist told me there was nothing they could do. I was told at my contract that the amount I set to free was set in stone after I first submitted my works. At the time, I had around 45 chapters and didn't want to give all of my work out for free. I had thought that after I got to 50 chapters, I would switch it to 25 free, then when I got to 60, I would go 30 chapters etc. But then I was told by the contractor that I couldn't switch ptr to free after it was set. This is my fault for negligence. Since this happened, I will switch my chapters to free until I reach 80 chapters. To all that this impacted, I do apologize.

Good news everyone! The chapters are going to be put back into some semblance of order! Chapters 1-50 will be free, as was the way it was meant to be. Chapters 51-71 and onward will be paywalled. I still like the idea of putting a free chapter here and there, possibly every 6 or 10th chapter. Thank you for your patience and understanding!

Armipotent

This is a work of fiction, any names, characters, stories or events, are fictitious! (Even the country in the story is just the author's fantasy as the author never visited those countries in the story) Armipotent is an archaic adjective meaning "strong in battle." Basically, it refers to someone who is physically tough in war. Originally, it was used to refer to the Roman god of war, Mars. ===================== Tang Shaoyang, an orphan who dropped out of the middle school to fight on the street as he found out school was useless for a penniless orphan like him. Tang Shaoyang dropped out of his school, fighting on the street, and made a name for himself. Berserker Tang from Youyouliucun. Afterward, Dragon Wing triad recruited him and everything was good for him. Even though the public deemed him as a tumor of society, Tang Shaoyang was having a decent life. Until one day, everything changed as an absurd and strange game started. "... Game starts! Stage one: Survival for The Fittest!" After the game started, zombies appeared out of nowhere. ... Ding! "You have killed 1000 zombies less than 24 hours since the game started! You gained 3 Talents!" Dong! "You may choose 3 Talents! please choose carefully!" Tang Shaoyang held his chin and mused what Talent he had to choose. "With Zombies appear everywhere, I need an infinite strength... this is one, I still need to choose 2 Talents more..." Then a lewd smile formed on his lips. "I want an infinite strength, charm and charisma to conquer women, and the last one, I want to upgrade my **** so I can please my women!" After saying this, Tang Shaoyang laughed aloud. "Hahaha, there's no way such talent exists... ehhhhh?!!!" Ding! Dong! "3 Talents are consumed! You have been granted Divine Body! Good Luck, Gamer Tang Shaoyang!" Tang Shaoyang immediately checked the detail of Divine Body. After a brief silence, he muttered unbelievably. "Such Talents really exist..."

Reincarnated As The Villainess's Son

Living a normal life is boring, but I was happy with what I had. Even when I spent most of my life in regret and misery, I lived because I had someone that I loved dearly. And that said someone took my life... But fate had different plans for me... As if death wasn't enough for me. As if the gods were mocking me. I got reincarnated into a hardcore romance game that I used to play. That too when the prequel game that I played the most ended twenty-five years ago. A game where death is everyone's mistress. A game that people either liked or hated too much. Now reincarnated into the body of the Villainess's son. I became someone that I hated the most... "Hahaha..." I laughed at my own misery. As if that too wasn't enough, I also became the slave of someone else's desires. Now, one might say a mother is a mother even if the world sees her as a Villainess. But what if your mother is the very incarnation of evil? That your mother is the hurdle that you have to overcome? What if your mother is the very reason you might die? Gentleness and love are the last things one could expect from her. "Hahaha..." Again, a hollow laugh escaped my lips as the realization dawned on me. That I have been...
