《You, Me》Chapter 19
Advertisement
The waves was fluttering loudly. This woke Lan Shuixin up. He woke up to find himself in an island and saw a body next to him. He looks around and to his surprised, he can finally see again. He was surprised, happy, and excited at the same time. He cannot believe such disaster will bring him the fortune to be able to see again. He must thank Mu Yuhan next time. He looks at the person next to him and flip him over and saw a handsome clad in red with a gold mask. His hair was disheveled in a mess after all those ocean water does. He realized this must be Wan Qinxiu. How’d they get there even to the same island? That is where they were drifted off to.
He was weak but not as weak. It is starting to get dark. He then saw a cave nearby and decided to carry Wan Qinxiu on his back and make his way to the cave to start a fire and look for food until Wan Qinxiu wakes up. When Wan Qinxiu came to, he found himself in a cave with fire and food. He can smell the cooked fishes. He slowly got up and coughs, “Brother Lan…” Lan Shuixin uses his hands to feel the ground and make his way to Wan Qinxiu and hand him the fish stick in his hand and said, “Eat you must be hungry.” ‘I cannot give away that I am no longer blind until it is the right time… Seem like a lot of things happened when I was blind so to find out whose pulling behind the string I must pretend like I am still blind…’ He thought acting as if he is still blind.
Wan Qinxiu took the fish stick and started eating. He shivers, “It’s quite chilly in this cave.” He coughs again, “I can’t believe I was so careless and got attacked from behind by that bastard!”
After they finished eating, Lan Shuixin casted a summon call and teleported them out of the island. They were outside Mt. Qingyun Sect’s door. Wan Qinxiu was weak but he said before leaving, “Now that you’re safe I should get going. I am going to recuperate and be behind close door for cultivation. I will not see you soon,” then he disappear into thin air.
Lan Shuixin informs of the situation and took Lan Hongxin and Xiaomi back to Heaven Realm where Xiaomi was grounded for disobeying her father. Lan Shuixin too went behind close door for cultivation now that he have his eyesight back he cannot fall behind.

“Master I am finally back where is that darn woman of yours?! I am going to roast her for sealing me!” The dragon beast transform to a little dragon pet flying around Mu Yuhan pouting. He noticed something was off and ask, “Did she die?”

“Shut your mouth!” Mu Yuhan slaps him away, “She is alive and well,” he said calmly, “She is waiting for me to find her.” Hei Bai reported the news to him of Lan Shuixin and Wan Qinxiu’s situation. Mu Yuhan thought of the sneak attack he gave Wan Qinxiu and ask Hei Bai, “Was he…. Injured seriously?”
Hei Bai looks at him dumbfounded as he was the one whom gave someone a deadly blow but still ask how he is doing. Hei Bai reported, “He is currently in close door cultivation. The blow you gave him will definitely take a toll on him for a long term so do not worry that blow should lower his cultivation by ten percent.”
Mu Yuhan commanded, “Listen to my command,” he glare at his dragon beast, “Xiaolong go out in the world and cause havoc around the world while Hei Bai go out there to announce the world to hand over Xiaolian and Physician Wan over or else Xiaolong will flood the world. Say these two must be sacrifice to appease the dragon god. With this threat I am sure they will hand them over to me.” Hei Bai obeys him but was confused on one matter so he ask for clarification, “Prince, why do you need Physician Wan for? Are you going both ways?”
Mu Yuhan kicks him and shouts, “Just do as I say! He wants to recover his powers? I won’t allow him to until he submits to work under me!” He roll his hand into a fist going to hit Hei Bai if he linger on any longer. Hei Bai saw the cue to scram off so he immediately left before he gets hit.
——
Under a spam of 3 days, the whole world can hear the dragon beasts threat clearly in the sky ruining plants, attacking towers, and killing anyone whom approaches it. Rumors has it that it needs human sacrificial to appease the dragon god’s anger. Nobody knew where the rumors come from, but the rumors started to get louder and louder and by the third day all realms heard of the news and gossip to sacrifice Wang Xiaolian and Physician Wan in order to appease the dragon god’s anger for waking the dragon up.
Lan Shuixin was in close door cultivation, but was interrupted by Xiaomi as she tell him the news of what’s happening. She started weeping, “I couldn’t even find my sister kept alone sacrifice her? I won’t give her up to such stupid rumors when it is all Mu Yuhan’s doing! Humans must be stupid for believing this crap!” Tears rolls down her beautiful eyes.
The Heaven Realm and Earth Realm was in havoc trying to solve the crisis. Lan Shuixin disagree with everyone and said he would not hand Wan Qinxiu over. He was a brother to him and will not allow anyone to sacrifice his brother to a baseless rumor. He even went against his father’s will, “Father! I will defeat this dragon and bring peace to all realms. I do not believe there is a dragon god. It must be the doing of Mu Yuhan. That is his dragon beast that injured Brother Wan the other day. I am sure this is his idea!”

“You are blind, what can you obviously do?” Crown Prince Lan Moxin asks having a tone of ridiculous sarcasm in it.
He was ridiculed for his eyesight. He left the hall room being mocked at. He ignore the mocking and only stated he will be out and protect Wan Qinxiu. He will not return until the matter is solve but he will never allow anyone near Wan Qinxiu. Xiaomi asked him to take her with him. She cannot stand by and just watch as everyone is aiming to sacrifice Wan Qinxiu to the world. With that, they left the Heaven Realm to look for Wan Qinxiu.
They reaches Wan Qinxiu’s residence and interfere his closed door cultivation. He didn’t mind about their interruption. He was informed of the situation. He laughs, “What do Demon Prince want a man like me?” Lan Shuixin shook his head, “I am not sure but… I will not allow anyone to sacrifice you under my supervision. Brother Wan rest assure I am here no one can touch you if I am still alive.”
Wan Qinxiu looks at Lan Shuixin and Wang Xiaomi and he smiles gratefully for the first time. He lower his head, “Is it worth it? Think about it… wouldn’t it be better to sacrifice one or two people for the world? As far as I know Mu Yuhan will not do anything to harm me.” Lan Shuixin sigh and reply, “Brothern Wan… you are my benefactor. I will protect you at the cost of my life.”
“It is nothing. It is my duty to save lives as a doctor,” Wan Qinxiu smiles at the end of his sentence. He thought and shook his head, “Brother Lan it’s not worth it. My life is not worthy of your protection. What if this made me an enemy of the Heaven and Earth Realm? If they all come for me… wouldn’t that make you the enemies of all three realms?” He turn to Xiaomi, “You too Miss Wang. You should go back home and not see me again.” He turn around and walks to the center of his courtyard. Lan Shuixin and Xiaomi follow suit.
Lan Shuixin turn to Xiaomi and said, “Ah Mi, you should return. From the words of Wan Qinxiu this will definitely make us the enemies of all three realms so leave us here.” Xiaomi looks at them and shook her head, “No! I won’t leave! Do you two take me for a burden?!” She cried, “I know I am not good at anything even martial arts, but I am not afraid of death that’s for sure!” She screams at them, “I will go settle the score with Mu Yuhan if that will give you justice!” She was about to leave when Wan Qinxiu hits her back on the head to make her unconscious. Xiaomi fell onto his embrace. He carries her and hand her to Lan Shuixin, “Brother Lan… Please escort Miss Wang back… I do not want her life to be in danger because of me.” He handed Xiaomi to Lan Shuixin.
Lan Shuixin takes Xiaomi back to the Great General Wang’s residence. Upon his arrival they tried to stop him from going out again, but they failed. He hurried out of Heaven Realm to inform Wan Qinxiu that they should leave that place because it is no longer a secret. Seems like Great General Wang is going to send troops to capture him. All sects are also looking for him. Mo Qingfeng had sent a letter to inform him to hide and to be careful. The sects are looking for him. The humans are so ready to sacrifice him to the dragon god as rumors stated because crops did not survive, towers were being destroyed, the dragon had thrown the world into a chaos leading to a lot of destruction in all sects and places. They have no choice to stop the havoc so they plan to hand over Physician Wan over as for Wang Xiaolian they never saw her so they can only give the person they know first.
——
“As expected of you my prince, the whole three realm are looking for Wang Xiaolian and Physician Wan. Great General Wang is already sending troops to Earth Realm to look for Physician Wan. The four sects are knocking at Qingyun sect’s door for Physician Wan since their son was close to Physician Wan,” reported Hei Bai, “I think it is about time.”
Mu Yuhan looks at his Xiaolong and said, “Perhaps you should bring destruction to Qingyun Sect for them to hand over Physician Wan. Go now,” he commanded. The dragon beast obey his command and left immediately.

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.

Bookworld Online: Marsh Man
Welcome dear friends, to the Virtual Reality Full Immersion System called Bookworld Online! Your name is David Drake and you are a 10 year old slave to the Marsh Hag. You were bought from your parents when you were only a small child at two years old. You don't really remember your old family at all. That's a good thing, since you would hate them on sight for selling you to her. All you've know for your whole life is pain. You are usually quickly healed and receive a lot of training and experience as her unofficial apprentice. It's unofficial because she would never pay to have you registered as an actual apprentice. To everyone else, you are just the boy she took pity on and brought into her home. What they don't know is that you are much more than that. So much more. You are her food. She uses you as her own personal buffet and she indulges herself quite often. You even have the permanent scars to prove it. You have learned many things from her, mostly without her knowing, since you have been helping more and more with her spell work the last few years and her potion making. The only parts you can't do are the magic condensing rituals that her potions require and the mana infusions that a lot of her other creations need. Do you wish to initiate the Main Storyline with these parameters? Please Note: I publish daily.Second Note: I changed this story to a fan fiction. It is based on Swamp Boy. The old story is about 4 years old and was dropped after 19 long chapters. The author hasn't been online since then, so I figured it was safe to do my own take on it.
