Southern Noir

Daily life of a cultivation judge

Yang Qing sighed as he gazed upon the black building that stood tall piercing the skies above with an inviolable aura around it. "The Order sure is black-hearted," he angrily thought as he made his way into the building begrudgingly. The building could be considered his home away from home and a source of endless grief for him due to its unforgiving working hours. The building housed the courtrooms of the Cultivation Order Society, an organization founded to maintain a semblance of order in the ruthless cultivation world of the southern continent who if left to their own devices would sink the whole continent to the ground. Due to how impetuous cultivators were, the cases never stopped. "Yi Jie, what do we have today?" "Two cultivators at the palace realm fought over a treasure and destroyed half of the territory of the blue deer kingdom in their fight, A rogue cultivator is suing the owner of the falling meteor blacksmith shop for selling him a faulty saber that keeps attracting lightning tribulations. A cultivator suffering from pill poisoning is blaming it on the white hilltop restaurant as he suspects they are feeding their spirit beasts pills to make them bigger and fatter. And the last case is 500 families are suing a cultivator by the name of Ren Fu for being negligent as a husband and a father whilst also pilfering their resources dry as he moves from place to place.," Awkward silence ensues........... Join me as we follow Yang Qing in his role as a judge in the Cultivation Order Society with cases and troubles that never seem to end. Fair warning the story has multiple POVs. I will also be re-editing the first 50 chapters, since they were missing a few things, one of them being commas and had a tad bit info dumps that I'll also be editing out. Thanks to the readers who pointed it out. I don't know how I missed it. For new readers, please don't shy away from reading, as lovers of wuxia we have all sampled MTL Dao at some point. If you can survive that, this won't be hard at all. Re-edited chapter (5/50) All support matters whether it's power stones, comments, reviews, golden tickets, subscriptions, or those who buy privilege chapters or even lurking readers..I welcome all your support in whatever format it comes in and I thank you for it, It really does mean a lot, especially to rookie authors like myself.

Chroniques Abyssales

Dans la partie nord du monde, une longue bataille opposant diverses races et la race démoniaque a finalement pris fin. Le Seigneur Démon, une silhouette aux cheveux noirs et aux yeux rouges, règne depuis son palais d'obsidienne, ayant à maintes reprises défait la Déesse, l'être le plus puissant du monde. Cependant, elle s'abstient de la tuer, sachant qu'elle ne ferait que renaître pour mener une autre attaque. Alors que la déesse est agenouillée devant elle, gravement blessée et impuissante, les bruits des explosions résonnent à l'extérieur, signalant l'imminente victoire de l'Alliance. Malgré son immense pouvoir, le seigneur démon reconnaît la faiblesse générale des démons comparée aux humains et à l'Alliance. Le développement de l'énergie de combat et du mana a permis aux humains ordinaires de lutter contre les démons, menant à la défaite de l'armée démoniaque. Consciente de l'intention de l'Alliance d'asservir le démon abyssal, le Seigneur Démon décide de lancer un sortilège interdit qui lui coûtera la vie. Alors que les forces de l'Alliance prennent d'assaut le palais, elles hésitent en ressentant l'énergie du sortilège. Le Seigneur Démon jure de résister et de renaître pour sauver son peuple. Pendant ce temps, la déesse réfléchit au traitement passé du seigneur démon envers elle et reconnaît son respect et son dévouement envers son peuple. Tandis que le seigneur démon se prépare à lancer le sort, la déesse lui demande si elle peut abandonner son plan et vivre librement. Cependant, les seigneurs démons ont le devoir de restaurer la gloire de la race démoniaque et de protéger leur peuple. Comprenant la détermination du seigneur démon, la déesse prépare son épée, dans l'intention de se confronter au sortilège interdit du seigneur démo. L'explosion qui en résulte crée un nuage en forme de champignon, marquant la fin du conflit et le début d'une nouvelle ère. Le Seigneur Démon et la Déesse deviennent des figures historiques, dont les histoires sont occasionnellement racontées.

Éveil Abyssal

Ayant passé son enfance enchaînée, Alice était une enfant qui ne connaissait ni l'amour ni la joie. Méprisée par sa famille tout en étant torturée au nom du bien commun pendant des années, elle s'était engourdie à toute sensation et pensée. Jusqu'au jour où un homme en noir lui offrit une chance de s'évader. Il y avait autrefois des rumeurs répandues sur un enfer sans fin, une terre de mort glorieuse et d'opportunités terribles. Les fous partaient à sa recherche, et les intelligents ne s'y aventuraient jamais. Ce n’est que lorsque ses mystères funestes se répandirent sur la terre que tous entendirent son nom — l'Abysse. Une seule goutte de son sang pouvait donner à quelqu'un le pouvoir de contrôler les ombres, de se déplacer plus vite que le son, ou une force supérieure à celle de l'homme le plus fort. Pourtant, tout cela avait un coût ; le sang s'assurait toujours que ceux qui le consommaient devenaient partie de l'Abysse, à une exception près — Alice. Rejetée par son propre sang, c'était son destin de pourrir dans une cage dorée. Mais ce jour fatidique changea tout. Dotée d'une seconde chance dans la vie, une chance de tout recommencer et de réclamer vengeance contre sa famille, une chance de plonger profondément dans l'Abysse et d'acquérir le pouvoir de gouverner son propre sort, Alice prit sa main, ignorant le destin qui se déroulait devant elle. Discord : https://discord.gg/vrdTSkj8Va Notes de l’auteur : Ceci est mon troisième livre, je vais mettre à profit ce que j'ai appris auparavant pour m'améliorer. Ce livre se concentrera sur l'intrigue, l'action, la profondeur des liens entre les personnages et adoptera un ton plus sombre dans ce monde de fantasy cruel que j'ai imaginé pour ce livre ! Si vous décidez de donner une chance à ce livre, j'espère que vous apprécierez ! Une expérience et un ton très différents de Nanomancer Reborn.

"Can not you speak, you ignorant disrespectful hooligan", she exclaimed in frustration, "Considering our current situation, I shall not be the one to be addressed as hooligan", came a heavy manly voice which gave shivers down the lady's spine. "Do not try to twist the situation.. It is you who has been following me like a shameless stalker", she pressed the daggers more which gave a scratch on the prince's throat nevertheless, he did not even blink. "My dignity would never allow me to commit such hideous act, my lady", he stated firmly, "Your words extremely contradict your action", She narrowed her eyes at the other who let out a gruff chuckle which sounded unreasonably attractive. "I concede that my actions may seem like the accusations you have pressed upon me, but have faith in me for I am a slave of the Almighty, I shall never dishonor a woman", he exclaimed sincerely. Inaya's fierce facade faltered for a mere seconds but she again narrowed her eyes. "I am no fool.. Nevertheless I do not wish to be seen with an unknown man", Inaya finally retreated her weapon. "If you claim to be innocent then do not show me your fa-well do not appear before me", she cleared her throat awkwardly for the male's face was already covered. Shahzaib bit his lips to stop the laugh that almost slipped out but he remained unmoving nonetheless. She glared at him before storming off.

Torn between her hunter upbringing and her new vampiric nature, she must hide her transformation from her family while navigating the deadly politics of vampire society.

The pleasure and pain blurred as she surrendered to the darkness, her world consumed by raw, primal desire. She was his—completely. But the deeper she falls into Lucien’s seductive grasp, the more she risks everything—her family, her humanity, and her soul.

With the Northern Jin getting stronger and closer who knows what new troubles will arise in He Shen’s life? But seeing as aggression is building up on both sides of the war front as their young emperor takes the throne. Warnings: There is some history delineation at some point as this is based on a fictional character. Parents and elders arrange marriages Some lack of communication, but it gets better after the first time. Specifically because that character is a watch and learn type. There is a major god in the story, no they will not be introduced until later in the story and “magic” doesn’t get introduced until later as well. As this is historical context if I get things wrong please correct me as I have only studied for at least 6 months before writing this story every aspect that I would need for it. Story progression kicks off at the beginning. All of the characters weren’t made for you to like them, only for you to see them as human. I can’t draw well so you’re going to have to live with the cover I made.

THE HOST OF CALAMITY KING ALEX

Alexander Frederick, a normal high school guy trying to work with life. After a painful twist, he lost his closest friend to a secret organization called "Selflaw." He lost control completely and wiped out the entire "Selflaw," an antimilitary organization feared even by the mighty captains of the four main military branches: the eastern branch "Fang Regiment," the western branch "Falcon Regiment," the northern branch "Beast Regiment," which is the most feared; their captain is said to possess unrivaled physical strength and is also feared because of his beastly ways on the battlefield. And finally, the southern branch: "Fox Regiment," known for their tactical ways of attaining victory. All that doesn't matter to him as he's uninterested in power struggles; he's born with an unusual strength and can beat a captain if he gets serious. The worst part is when he got blamed for his companion's murder, which increased his ruthless slaughtering of the "Selflaw" organization and its allies. After a satisfying vengeance, he acknowledged her love. Even though it's late, he ended his life wishing things had gone differently... Surprisingly, waking up to total darkness without a body, a voice resounded in total nothingness. For a second, he thought it was a judgment passed by God, but it was far too deep to belong to a holy being like God. After what felt like an eternity, he saw light again and found himself in an unfamiliar environment. "What's going on? I feel so fuzzy," he said, rubbing his forehead in confusion.
