Chapter 104: The Chopsticks Were Too Fragile
Chen Ming didn’t turn the mission in, as it was 30% away from a perfect score . The problem laid with Silver Wing . He didn’t have a post and the system still treated him as the enemy .
Of all Yan Mountain’s forces, he was the only one who could handle Silver Wing . He would worry if he sent him to roam alone .
He will stay on Yan Mountain for now . And I just came up with a great title, Mountain Guarding Diety!
Chen Ming’s face twitched, finding Silver Wing chugging a pill bottle in the Alchemy House, “You, a Divine Palace Archfiend, are actually eating Dao Sense realm disciples’ pills . Have you no shame?”
Silver Wing emptied another bottle, his mouth letting out crunchy sounds, “I didn’t know there’s a tangerine-flavor! Sigh, wait . Does our Yan Mountain have a dining hall? You don’t expect me to die of starvation, do you?”
You guzzling bottle after bottle is to stave off hunger? Don’t you know a Qi Pill keeps you full for three days?
Chen Ming pulled Silver Wing, “As a Divine Palace Archfiend, you should get your act together . Follow me, we have important matters to discuss . ”
Chen Ming dragged Silver Wing by the ear and out of the Alchemy House . When a group of disciples heard the two powerhouses talk, they refrained from commenting . They ran to a secluded area where they could comment freely .
“Archfiend Silver Wing’s pill capacity isn’t average!”
“It looked like Master is stronger than Archfiend Silver Wing . His pill capacity must also be higher . ”
“But we’ve never seen Master eat pills!”
The group started shuffling through their memories, yet no scene regarding Master eating pills came to mind . They went and asked Ling Xian . He told them that Chen Lingyu was in charge of Master, little carp and little sunflower’s meals . They all ate simple meals .

Master is living such a simple life . “We, disciples, eat pills after pills thanks to Master living a life of poverty!”
“What an honor, to have such a Master!”
“I’ve decided, that from now on I will only eat half a bottle . For Master!”
Chen Ming asked Silver Wing, “What do you think of Yan Mountain?”
In a moment of carelessness, Silver Wing revealed the pill bottles in his sleeve, then tuck them back, “Great, I find Yan Mountain amazing . There’s no better place in this world besides Yan Mountain!”
Chen Ming smiled, “Since you believe it so, then you will need a position here . As I see it, from your majestic and imposing appearance, it perfectly matches Yan Mountain’s style . And so, I have forged a silver armor especially for you . From now on, you will stand on the terrace at the foot of Yan Mountain, showing its glory!”
Silver Wing touched his face, “Mountain Lord, you know me so well!”
When he arrived before that silvery and flashy armor, Silver Wing couldn’t contain his joy as he put it on . Chen Ming said, “Of course, if you are tho reveal Yan Mountain’s glory, then you must also have to act accordingly in case of trouble . If someone is coming for a challenge, you need to teach them a lesson . If the disciples encounter difficulties, you need to solve them . Also, if some come to visit my disciples, then you must report back to me . ”
Now Silver Wing knew where the problem laid . Standing at the foot of Yan Mountain, dealing with inconveniences, why did it sound like a guardian deity?
But then shook his head, That’s not right, how can a guardian deity have such a dashing armor?
After bestowing Silver Wing’s armor, and imposing a limit on his pill intake, Chen Ming went to hold a lecture for his disciples .

He heard of Moon King Hall plan, of cutting off Yan Mountain’s expansion, to block them from invading other Archfiends’ domains . He didn’t care . Yan Mountain’s true wealth came from pills . Just how many could he raise with those small fields?
At this time, Chen Ming eyed his mission, finding it at 93% . It had to be because some fled from such a large battle . He didn’t wait to reach perfection, “Turn in!”
“Ding! Survive or perish mission evaluation: 93% . Rating: excellent . Reward: 74,400 spiritual knowledge, 2,790 fame, and a spiritual gold mine . ”
Spiritual gold mine?
More stuff! The time for refining equipment was soon approaching . Yan Mountain’s fiend army had spiritual weapons assigned in chaos and didn’t have any restrictions regarding reaching Archfiend rank . He had to think of a way to solve this .
Leaving his current matter aside, Chen Ming went to Yan Mountain’s external palace, to participate in the victory feast .
Hearing this, Silver Wing also wanted to join . Chen Ming said, “Weren’t you on the losing side? You also want to join the feast?”
Silver Wing smiled, “It was all a misunderstanding . I have now turned over a new leaf! ”
Together with Silver Wing, and taking his legacy disciples along, they strode along the way, in the eyes of other Archfiend . With the speed of those two, in two hours they arrived at the feast held on Black Tiger Mountain . When Chen Ming entered, the feast became livelier, “Mountain Lord is here!”
“It’s all thanks to Mountain Lord that we get to have such a resounding victory . Not even Moon King Hall will dare to treat us lightly!”
“Everyone in Myriad Mountains will hear of Yan Mountain!”
All Archfiends were present, yet didn’t find it unusual for Silver Wing to participate . They knew of him joining them a long time ago and even became united over the course of last month . When meeting with the five Archfiends, Silver Wing didn’t have the arrogance of a Divine Palace . They even called themselves brothers on every occasion .
The four legacy disciples sat at the table with the other Archfiends’ youngsters . They soon started competing in pill capacity . Alcohol capacity was a thing of the past now .
At the table, Ling Xian with Li Suyi, Chen Lingyu and Zhuo Qingyao stood separate from the rest . Chen Lingyu found it all a novelty and tried out one of the fruits . It was a fruit specific Prodigious Fruit Mountain, White Jade Lotus . The petals refreshed the mind and sweetened the mouth .
Many of youths looked at Zhuo Qingyao with apprehension . After all, she was like an imposing tree . Head senior sister’s legend spread across all Yan Mountain . But after a while they didn’t mind this that much, finding head senior sister even more aloof then what they assumed .
Zhuo Qingyao was eavesdropping on Chen Ming’s table . She heard White Fox speak, “Mountain Lord, you are still single . I will be the matchmaker and solve this matter of great importance . ”
Black Tiger laughed, “Nothing short of a Sovereign, will match Mountain Lord’s image!”
Black Python’s had many sources, “I heard that the fiends’ Sovereign’s daughter is at the tender age of eighteen, of outstanding beauty . She has many suitors vying for her hand . I find her a perfect match for Mountain Lord!”
Chen Lingyu heard a sudden crack, then looked to the source to see a pair of broken chopsticks in Zhuo Qingyao’s hand, as pieces fell on the floor .
“Head senior sister, what is it?”
Zhuo Qingyao shook her head, “It’s nothing, these chopsticks were too fragile . ”
Chen Lingyu eyed the broken chopsticks, Are silver chopsticks that fragile?

Entangled Fates Book 1 - Quantum Beginnings
“By far, the greatest danger of Artificial Intelligence is that people conclude too early that they understand it.” —Eliezer Yudkowsky Hey all, we're moving over to book 2. This content is in a state of transition. The book is now availble on Amazon (includes extra chapters): https://www.royalroad.com/amazon/B07W1534R8 Artificial intelligence was nearly mankind’s last invention. AI took off like a rocket, then when it racked up an impressive death toll, it crashed before it could blossom and took most high-tech industries with it. Resistance and fears became deep-set. Two decades after the infamous Rev. 4.6 incidents, humanity hasn’t quit dreaming of the wealth and power that could be at their fingertips. A new generation of mega-corporations rose from the ashes. When one melds a quantum computer to a barely functional mental patient as a PR move, there are those who seek to profit, those who want to destroy it, and Alex. Alex Sage is a typical college student trying to keep up his grades and maybe find a meaningful connection with the fairer sex. Then, an automated semi crashes into his home, killing his family and turning his head into a pin cushion in the process. Alex awakens to find most of his memories gone and an illegal AI hidden in his brain implant. Now the pet project of a tech billionaire and heavily in debt, Alex struggles to stay valuable enough to be kept online. Still grappling with the repercussions of his injuries, and threats from a dangerous anti-augmentation political movement, there are no easy answers and threats loom around every corner. Alex must use whatever resources he can to escape from under the thumb of a ruthless corporation, while keeping those he comes to love safe. Chapters will stay up on RRL until Aug 10. It'll go up on Kindle Unlimited after that. How do you get those extra chapters I didn't have planned for RR? If you want them, they'll be in the published book. Book 2 will still make sense without them - I made sure of that. But... isn't $3 a lot for extra chapters? Think of it as tipping me for a good job and you'd also be getting my eternal thanks. If you enjoyed it so much that the idea of missing out a few chapters haunts you, I did my job as an author and made an engaging story. What's in those extra chapters? Resolving a few issues, set up for the cybernetic revolution, a rather intense sex scene with a new partner, revelations of who's really pulling strings, and a bit of set up for book 2. Complaints that people missed out on it when it was published here won't help (sorry!). I posted this for the folks who helped me shape the book, which is you all! (Again, yay!) But... Why! Why not keep it all on RR forever? My editor likes being paid for one. For two, I'd like the ability to get broader readership. If I break even on editor costs, I'll be incredibly happy. What about book 2? Drafts for Book 2 will go up around Sept 10. My draft of Book 2 is done, and it will be handed to the editor once Book 1 is published. Feedback has been even more positive. Beta readers devoured it and wanted more. I'll add a link to Book 2 once it's up on RR. I'm more or less, using you all for Beta Readers, so you get it before it's "canon" and edited. I invite active and meaningful feedback during this process. In return, you get early access to chapters. That does mean that the book content or plot might be adjusted before it gets published as I refine it. Sex Y/N? Yes. I heard the feedback, 90% wanted it explicit. You all will get the "full" experience. Will I dump all of book 2 here? Honestly, I'm not sure yet. At a minimum, it'll be up to the 75% mark as we collect feedback, much like what I did with book 1. It really depends on how good the feedback is and how nice people are. Lots of support + meaningful feedback to make it better = higher likelihood you get all the book. Will be it up here indefinitely? No, it'll probably go up on KU at some point, but I'll make sure there's enough time for a large readership to grab it here. Then we move to book 3 which already is around 60K words already. What about other adventures in the same universe/characters? Yep. Absolutely. Nothing ready to share yet though. I plan to keep those side chapters and more slice of life stories as RR exclusive. Since I'm carving this off in book-sized segments, I'll have to figure out where those disconnected story arcs belong. I'm open to suggestions.

Katra
Kardin lived a happy and good life. That is, till he was given a strange orb by an even stranger man, maybe even a demon. He watches as his village is burned, the villagers slaughtered and his friend devoured. He escapes into the Jungle of The Gods, a place of ancient ruins and deadly animals. There, he is changed and his fate diverges from what should have been his death. Now he must forge his own path in a world of great beauty and power, where death lurks around the corner and battles between veritable gods are fought. Where nations clash and ancient beings destory civilizations on whims. But unseen cogs move under the surface, events transpiring beyond simple understanding. Strange and powerful items called Artifacts have started to reappear across the land of Auren, empowering their wielders far beyond what cultivation can give. The Traezar Empire and all of Auren are on the precipice of war and strange beings have started to emerge, all with an agenda of their own. Chaos is brewing, and Kardin must survive it, all while trying to attain vengeance and understand his strange and anomalous Katra. ***Current Schedule*** I am currently releasing 1 3,000(Sometimes I end up writing waaaay more) word chapter halfs every week. If there is not some sort of notice as to why I have vanished, then I'm probably dead. Let's hope I don't die then, eh? *Ducks under flying knife* I own this cover, put my own blood, sweat and an hour of my time into it. Ahahaha! This story is inspired (I stress this word, as because most of the story is different) by Will Wight’s Cradle. I highly recommend you read it! (Please for gods sake, if you have something to say, please do it in a curteous fashion. I don’t need any more maniacs flying at me and trying to stab me with sporks, I am already insane enough to fill that role.*Winks*) **What is This Story?** Think cultivation mashed with western fantasy, put into a pot to boil and then drunk while it's pipping hot. All the while a mad man(me) cackles insanely over the pot, stirring. It draws from xianxia lightly, which means no exasperated angry young masters. No “genuis” or “prodigy” MC, one that is not OP, or anything of the like. If you don’t like cultivation novels, this might still be up your alley. MC focuses on “Life Shaping”, see poll 2 for more Info. Warning! If your are squeamish, that gore and traumatizing content tag is there for a reason. I shall dive into both bloody and disturbing scenes and the questionable ethics of manipulating life, and some of it won’t be pretty. With a dose of realism added in. I do add my own evi- I mean despic- no, sorry, interesting twists aswell. >:) Also, I HATE info dumps! *Steps out of the way of a charging semi* Still not dead! Arc 1 (Kindling): Chapter 1 - 13 Arc 2 (Metempsychosis): Chapter 14 - 29 Arc 3 (???): Chapter 30 - ??? A disclaimer, I am new author and am still feeling out my limitations. This story is my hope of bettering my writing skills and to have fun. Buckle up and enjoy the insane journey that is Katra. (Pronounced as cah-tra)
