《Return of the Soldier King》Chapter 39 The Bait
Advertisement
Liu Manman pushed Ye Fei to the wall and wrapped a slender leg around his waist as she caressed his cheek.
A wide grin appeared on Ye Fei's indifferent face, but when he reached to touch her waist, she suddenly stopped him.
"I... I have a stomachache!" Liu Manman ran into an empty stall, slamming the door behind her.
"OK, I'll just wait for you here," Ye Fei's voice rang beyond the door.
"What should I do?" Liu Manman leaned against the door, exhaling loudly. She didn’t think Ye Fei would actually go along with it.
You think I’ll have sex with you just because you got rid of a few bozos for me? Keep dreaming!
“But... what should I do now? This Ye Fei guy is a savage. If I push him away... he’ll rape me.” Liu Manman's mind was blank. Her body shivering, she didn’t dare to follow that train of thought any further.
"I have to call for help." She took out her phone with shaking fingers.
She was acquainted with the manager of the Burning Bar, Chen Han. If she called him, he’d send a few bouncers to save her, but she’d be indebted to him. Chen Han looked like a good fellow, but he was actually Fire Dragon’s right-hand man.
However, Liu Manman had no choice but to call him and have him come and take Ye Fei away.
She felt a little sorry for Ye Fei. "Damn it, who made you want to have sex with me? All you did was beat up a few good-for-nothings. I told you, I’m not that kind of girl."
After thinking about it for a while, Liu Manman was determined to call Chen Han.
Toot... Toot... Toot...
After a while, Chen Han picked up the phone. "Miss Liu, to what do I owe the pleasure? I just saw you on the first floor, do you want me to buy you a drink?"

"Manager Chen, I am in the ladies' room on the first floor. There’s a creepy man lurking here," Liu Manman whispered.
"Really? I will send someone down immediately." Chen Han was surprised. He knew the toilets in his nightclub could get pretty messy with people having sex there, but since Liu Manman complained about it, he had to send someone downstairs to look around.
He pulled out his walkie-talkie and held the button, "Dahu, Xiaoqiang, take a few men and go check the ladies' room on the first floor. If you find anything unusual, inform me immediately."
"Yes, sir."
Dahu, Xiaoqiang, and five bodyguards from the second floor ran downstairs and found Liu Manman hiding in the ladies' restroom. Soon, Chen Han arrived as well.
"Where is the pervert?" he asked. Ye Fei was nowhere to be found.
"I... I don't know.” Liu Manman walked out from the stall confused. Ye Fei had said he would wait for her outside the door, so where was he? Did he walk away?
Liu Manman repeatedly apologized to Chen Han, embarrassed to have put him to so much trouble for nothing.
"It’s nothing!” Chen Han smiled. “Why don’t I buy you a drink to take your mind off it?" He had actually coveted this beauty for a long time, and this was a perfect opportunity to have a drink with her and get on her good side.
They walked out of the ladies' toilet together, unmindful of the open window in the neighboring stall.
While Liu Manman was on the phone with Chen Han, Ye Fei had opened this window, carefully climbed up the toilet bowl, and crawled out with the silent dexterity of a monkey.
On the other side, he jumped up and clung to a second floor window. Looking in, he saw multiple guards patrolling the corridor. If he climbed in right there, he would be spotted immediately.

Of course, Ye Fei could choose to fight past them, but he did not want to arouse suspicion. If Fire Dragon felt something was wrong, Ye Fei would lose the chance to find Lin Qingwan's videos.
Ye Fei was not in a hurry. Clutching the ledge, he slowly shimmied past the other windows to look into the other rooms of the second floor.
There were several luxurious VIP rooms on the second floor, with a few men and many scantily clad women. In two of the rooms, the girls were wearing nothing but underwear, slender waists swaying to the music.
After dancing for a while, they sat on a couch together. Two of the girls looks very young, possibly under eighteen. They took up straws and started snorting up lines of powder from the table in front of them.
Ye Fei frowned. He’d been around. He clearly knew those girls were snorting drugs.
Sure enough, Fire Dragon was up to no good. Things were normal on the first floor, but there were all manner of criminal and immoral acts happening on the second floor.
No wonder there were so many guards at the Burning Bar. It seemed that Fire Dragon's crimes were more than just illegal surveillance and blackmail.
Ye Fei hung on the ledge, waiting for the right moment. The white powder made the two girls excited and they began to undress in front of the men, who rushed up like hungry wolves to ravish them.
Just then, Ye Fei heard Chen Han’s voice from the corridor, ordering the bodyguards to go downstairs, and knew his plan was successful.
He shimmied back to the corridor window and clambered over the windowsill, silent as a civet.

The White Rabbit: Book 2
In the Urillian Empire, the Empress Xandra rules three-quarters of the planet Xren from her home in the capital of the Earth Continent. Both the fire and water peoples have fallen under her might after a series of wars stretching back three centuries. Earth elves, under Xandra's rule, have spread throughout the planet and established colonies, and are, by all accounts, enjoying what seems to be a prosperous and happy existence. But not everyone in Uril is happy. The holy books speak of elves as the Chosen People of Thesis, tasked with guiding and protecting the lower races. For some people, this scripture has been interpreted to designate their life as one on the lowest rungs of society. Humans have been reduced to a slave class, and serve their elven masters under Xandra's rule, kept at bay by the constant fear of the dreaded Emerald Knight, and their own perceived weakness. Humans do not lead long lives, nor do they possess the wisdom, power, or magical acumen of their elven masters. But there is hope. A group of people have banded together to fight against Xandra, her Knight, and her empire. They call themselves the "Knights of Order" united under the principle idea that Xandra's reign has brought chaos unto Xren, and they wish to restore order. These Knights are led by a man named Xaxac Brigaddon, spoken of as a legend. They say that when the moons are full, some humans transform into powerful beasts. They say that Xaxac is the most powerful warrior on Xren, that in his youth he was enslaved and forced to fight other humans to the death in a bloodsport called "cage fighting", that he could not be touched and held the world championship title for three years running until he faked his own death and escaped his master to join the resistance. They say that he has friends in high places- noblemen, pirates, and the devil himself. They say that if you can find him, he can ferry you to freedom in places where the Earth Elves fear to tread. They say that he is immune to magical attack, and his eyes shine like the silver moon. They say that he is descended from Quizlivian Brigaddon, one of the humans who helped the demon Magnus escape a god. They say that if you want to walk the Path of Order, you should follow the White Rabbit.Come and watch the transformation from human boy to Knight of Order: The life and times of Xaxac OfAgalon OfLangil Brigaddon. Content Warning: This work is based on the real experiences of human trafficing survivors. Xaxac's origins are based on true events, and they are presented realisitcally; this includes but is not limited to: isolation, gaslighting, emotional and sexual abuse, and grooming tactics. This work is meant to hold a mirror up to society; it is based on the real of experiences of people who have experienced slavery and/or abuse. It is an adult work and probably should not be read by anyone under the age of 18. If you are a survivor of human trafficing and/or abuse, your feedback is welcome, but please do not read this if you think it may trigger your trauma. I did not write this with the intention of harming anyone, but rather to provide accurate representation for a group that does not normally get it in the hopes of changing the zeitgeist. I would like to see a world where more people understand what these experiences are like, so that real survivors do not have to deal with microagressions from an ignorant public. Reader discretion is advised. This book does not display these elements as heavily as book 1.

The Forerunner's Odyssey
The greatest tragedies are not the ones with the most unfortunate and unhappy endings, but rather the ones without an ending at all. So when Suran Ibrahim scaled the fresh crater, it was not out of exuberance for surviving his ordeal, nor was it out of desire to live in the brave, new world he found himself in. He simply longed for an ending to his odyssey. Mature 18+ Mostly for violence, some language, but anything else may show up eventually. I place the tag just so that I'm not restricted. I'm rewriting this to fix a host of issues. I'll try to update my progress in the blurb - I most likely wont post the revisions until I'm done for all chapters. Till then, c'ya later fam. Maybe. Character rework: 100% Planing: 80% Rewrite: 5/35 Editing: 5/35
