《True Human》 One *PINGG!* *PANKK!* This was a scorching hot day. The rays of light were very dense, and they were pressing down strongly against the ''day'' area. *Huff...* *Puff...* Under the intense heat, panting sounds could be heard. They were ragged. They were hoarse. "Tired already?! There''s still fifteen minutes before breaktime! Stop before that and yerr gets extra training!" A burly man shouted harshly at the people infront of him, his chest heaving up and down. His voice travelled across a large region, those who heard it had their bodies shudder a little, and the clashing figures fought with greater fervour, albeit ever so slightly. Amongst the fighters, some were fighting with their bare arms and legs, while the rest were supported by equipments of their liking. On the brick grounds were scattered metal pieces. Some people call them tools, and some call them toys. *CLANKK!* A young man had just parried a sword strike. Just when he was about to launch his counterattack, a sense of crisis enveloped his back, forcing him to turn around whilst raising his shield. His body motioned an arc. Then, he saw a bald monk and his fist flying towards him. Having luckily completed his movement in time, his metal shield blocked the oncoming fist. Strangely enough, there wasn''t any sound of bones getting crushed, but a metallic bang was heard instead. The immense force made him back up a few steps involuntarily. Looking at the dent on his shield, he was momentarily stunned.If you encounter this tale on Amazon, note that it''s taken without the author''s consent. Report it. "Eight level of Qi Condensation......" At this time, the monk''s body glowed with a suppressing aura, the ground beneath him cracked and fragments of brick flew up into the air. The same thing happen to the young man. His body let off a surging aura, he raised his shield and mace and looked warily at the other party. At an instant, the young man raised his mace, and the monk prepared his punch. *PANKK!* *PENKK!* *PANGG!* Few strikes were unleashed in a split second. The young man was focusing his all on his new opponent, completely forgetting about the one before. The old enemy had let out a frown, but he didn''t say anything and scurried to find new matches. With someone taking the initiative to release his aura, the others all followed on. The air became more suffocated and the ground started to look miserable. The battlefield was already chaotic, and now even more so. Under the hot sun, the reflections from the blades was especially bright, causing flashes of white to appear here and there. They were striving. They were fighting. They were like flowers beneath the yellow orb, competing for nutrients. Zooming out, a black outline of a sphere could be seen. Zooming out even further, one could see a crow gripping onto a thin branch, its eyes looking towards an entangled mess. Then, it looked away after a short while. *CAWWW!* The crow loosened its grip and flew its black body away. It had seen these kind of scenes for too many times already, it was boring to continue watching on. Without even realising it, one of its feather had lost contact with its body. The black feather started to fall downwards, yet it couldn''t reach the ground. It was being toyed by the flow of wind. When the wind blew, it could only follow. By the means of fate, it was currently being pinched gently. Tracing the hands back to the main body, one could see a young man staring fixedly at the black feather, his entire body frozen like a statue. It was only after a few minutes before movement was made. He turned to his right, "A''Ran, do you want some furry clothing? I bet it feels good, at least much better than your damned robe." Leaning against him on the right was another young man clad in yellow robes. "Nope, I want just you. Baby, you''re my best clothing." The latter smiled. "Uhuh, alright alright." The former chuckled happily and embraced the latter. Two Perhaps you were asking about where to live, where to relax at, or maybe even when you''re talking to your friends about residency. The word ''Mount Hongluo'' will certainly pop-up more than just often. Mount Hongluo of Han Zheng Continent. It was a place of peace. The vegetation there was bountiful, lush greenery were what occupied most of the land. Huge trees stood erect, their height made them pierced through the skies, and what remained beneath the fluffy whites were numerous eyes called leaves. They were like guardians, each bearing the weight of clouds with their wide shoulders while quietly watching over the mountain from above. In a small cottage by a certain riverside of Mount Hongluo. Two figures sat side by side. One wore a plain cotton robe, and the other wore a furry piece of clothing. Infront of one of them was a large piece of paper supported by an easel, while the person next to him was staring at it earnestly. "A''Ran, when painting, one does not only think about the way to paint out the imagination, we need to also think about how it ended up like that. The starting slate might be blank white, or maybe with two colours, three, four....." "For example, the same painting of a setting sun could be completed slowly, with the final step only a small change in colour, or perhaps quickly, that is by giving the slate a big change in colour." "In the end, the steps doesn''t matter. Only the final product is important." If you come across this story on Amazon, it''s taken without permission from the author. Report it. As the painter spoke, the person beside him let out an little ''ooouhh'' The painter shifted his gaze to the figure beside and smiled. "Watch me." Rolling up his sleeves, he dipped his paintbrush into a slightly watery paint, then immediately motioned his hand, splashing the paint onto the medium. This was repeated again and again, until a minute later did he stop. "It''s done." "........." "Wait, what''re you painting again?" Looking at the mess of colors, Ran couldn''t help but ask. "Hold on." The painter smiled. He shifted closer to the painting, and blew. *Hufff* The sun and moon were formed. *Hufff* Earth was created and grasses covered the patch of land. *Hufff* The back of two figures could be seen holding hands in the centre. *Huffffff* Time started to flow. The sun and moon started to revolve. The grasses turn from green to orange, orange to white. Spring, Summer, Autumn, Winter. Then time passed by even quicker. The sun and moon collapsed, the earth broke down into pieces. Yet, the two figures remained all the same. Galaxies grew old and..-"Ahh stop it baby, I get it I get it." Said Ran as he hugged the painter, his eyes blinking with watery reflection. In response, the latter turned around and returned the passion. Then came a long adjustment hugging positions until a point where they both fell asleep on the bed beside. "Mmmm...." Three By a certain riverside was a cottage. *Creaakk* The cottage''s wooden door was pushed open, and the sunshine peeked in. Two figures could be seen emerging. One of them was clinging onto the other with his head over the shoulder, like a little koala hugging a tree. His eyelids were drooping heavily, it looks like his sleep didn''t went so well, or perhaps he''s dissatisfied with the amount of sleep-time he got. The two accepted the sun''s passion, thus darkness was expelled. The grasses by the doorside swayed their hips. Left right - left right, they were dancing, welcoming the two to the outside, to the nature. As light took over darkness, their colors were adjusted. They were young men. One who wore white fluffy clothing had dark, sharp eyebrows and long, hot eyes. His hair ruffled, yet at the same time neat. His sharp nose and red lips were supported by a lovely jaw. The other who''s in plain robes had more or less similar features, except they were a tiny more ferocious. He''s got thicker eyebrows and slightly brownish eyes. Almost all the time will his lips curve upwards a little. Plus, whenever the wind blows, his hair''s pony tail would be swaying along the flow. Had you been asked to judge him based on solely his looks, you probably would''ve said that he''s your neighborhood''s nice guy. Beautiful. That''s what their facial contours made them out to be. Strikingly beautiful, strikingly hot. *Thud* *Thud* The weightbearer walked straight forward. There were sounds of leaves rustling and birds chirping. But aside from that, only his footsteps on the grassy patch of land was heard. As the sunlight hit the figures for a prolonged time, the sleepy creature had no choice but to open his eyes. What underneath his eyelids was eventually revealed, two deep dark pearls were lying within. With his eyes slightly squinted, he was like a cute, playful boy. "Wei, where are we going?" Ran asked. "To fish, what else?" "...I didn''t know you liked fishing?" Ran raised his eyebrows. Wei stopped his tracks. "You said you''re hungry, right?" Said Wei as he reached out his hand grabbed the empty air infront of him, what came next was a fishing rod materializing, he pulled it out and the distorted space restored itself quickly. "...Yes..yes.." Hearing Wei''s reply, Ran appeared downcast. ''I''m hungry, so hungry...ahhh'' His eyes shined a different light and he gazed deeply at Wei. Royal Road is the home of this novel. Visit there to read the original and support the author. "...Later....later, we''re going to fish first, alright?" Wei turned his head around and gave Ran a light peck on his lips, he knew his lover the best, something like this couldn''t escape his eyes.. Ran''s cheeks turned tomato red right away, he tried to hide his face by burying his head on the back of Wei''s shoulder, yet he still felt embarrassed all the same, making him couldn''t help but give Wei a light smack. At the moment, his eyes were facing the ground, so although Wei''s got a huge grin hanging on his face right now, he didn''t notice it. Wei held onto the fishing rod with one hand and fixed a little worm as bait. He swirled the rod, and *Plop!* The fishing line along with the bait fell into the waters. Now to play the waiting game. -One second passed- And Wei pulled the fishing rod up. *BOOOM!!* Water splashed onto everywhere while a giant fish went flying straight into the air. Ran stared at the fish curiously. It was peculiar in some ways, it has two long, slim appendages dangling down from above its head, its teeth were monstrous; some were canine, some were incisors, there was nothing that resembled peace. It doesn''t even have scales, what covered the body was a thick layer of grey colored skin instead. Overall, it looked grotesque. *GGrip* The fishing rod was gripped tighter and tighter... Then Wei, with his hand tightly gripping on the fishing rod, turned his whole body around while his hand along the fishing rod made a 180 degree arc in the air. *BANGG!* The giant fish got smashed into the ground. Ashes and debris flew everywhere, but none of them got close to Wei and Ran. The fish flapped its badly mutilated body a few more times before its eyes lost the light. "Baby, you''re so rough, I like it." Ran smiled gently, but his eyes look fanatic. Subconsciously, he reached out his hand and grabbed Wei''s shirt collar, pulling and turning his body around to give him a deep, deep kiss.. Wei got caught off guard, but he quickly adapted. One of his hand held onto his baby, his other hand made its way to the river to wash off the dirt. Once one is clean, the other took over. As the saying goes- wash your hand before you eat. Wei is now following the general principle; he was going to enjoy his Ran, so he washed his hands first. After washing both of his hands, they disappeared. *Whooosh*, the sound of wind whistling could be heard, and the cottage''s door suddenly slammed shut.... Four In Han Zheng Continent, dragons are at the very top of the food chain. They possess insanely tough bodies and their cultivation speed can put many human geniuses to shame, and when matured, they are virtually invincible. This had made them the subject of reverence for many others. Right now, there are four gigantic statues of dragons crouching on top of an enormous altar. Green, Blue, Red , Yellow; the dragon statues are made of jades of those colors. When the sun shined on them, one could see a scintillating reflection of the four colors. They are like sovereigns, each and every one of them are puffing up their chest, their arrogant eyes looking down on the world. The altar is located at the centre of what seemed to be a bustling city. There are many buildings each with their own uniqueness. They stretched out from the centre to an infinitely long distance away from the altar. Throughout the whole area, many people could be seen moving about; some went to shop for pills, and some went to get treatment; people are just minding their own businesses. Right now, outside of the city, two young men could be seen. One wore white fluffy clothing plus a wolf''s head hat, and the other wore a robe of yellowish-green color. Their hands were intertwined, and their shoulders'' touching. They were of course, Ran and Wei. Ran was looking silently at Wei, his mind wondering if he should rest his head on Wei''s shoulder. But right as he made his decision, Wei stopped his tracks. Right infront of them is a gargantuan cultivator city. Even the city gate itself spanned across miles, how big would the buildings inside be? Wei looked up at the ridiculously tall gate, and there he saw the city''s plaque. ''Heavenly Dragon City'' Ran, after looking at the structures behind the gate, looked up as well. His heart couldn''t help but to build up a bit of anticipation, at least this world isn''t one of those boring worlds. Right below the gates were people streaming in and out, their numbers were innumerable. Many different people were present there, each with their own history. However, the guards stationed there weren''t many, but each and every one of them exuded an intense aura, their eyes looked wary at all times, and they seemed like they will take action immediately once they spot even the slightest peculiarity. People were forming many lines to get in the city, Wei and Ran chose one of them. The narrative has been taken without authorization; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident. Wei''s eyes glowed slightly as he looked around, and after awhile, he smiled wryly, ''why there are so many suspicious beings around here...'' When he looked to the left, he saw a child sucking on a lollipop, but behind the skin was a short old man grinning heinously. When he looked to the right, he saw a ''pregnant'' serpent-woman, the thing inside her belly, hmmm, suspicious... As he looked infront of him, he saw a woman holding onto the chains that connects to the tiger beside her, and when she pulled the chains, the tiger''s eyes showed a hint of...delight? As if spotting Wei''s gaze, the tiger turned menacingly and casted a ''you saw nothing'' look to him. Wei who is always smiling, smiled even brighter... Ran saw that scene, and felt pissed. He bent over and took a rock by the roadside, and he flicked it right at the tiger''s head. *BAANG!* The rock moved at such an insane speed that it vaporized the tiger''s head, expanded the woman''s hole to 20cm in diameter, and chopped off countless people''s legs infront of them. When the rock finally disintegrate into nothingness, a straight line of empty air was formed. The explosion was so loud that most people nearby blacked out for a second and once they recovered, blood was dripping all over the place from their ears. Everybody freaked out almost instantly, but it was an even worse case for those infront of Wei and Ran; they blacked out for a second and woke up to find one of their legs had disappeared. "What the hell just happened!?" An old man sitting cross legged below the four dragon statues suddenly exclaimed. "Is it a meteor strike?... Impossible, my spiritual sense would have detected it. No, I must go and see it for myself!" He mumbled and his figure vanished right after. The people who were lining up were freaking out. Some were angry, some were scared, and some were taking advantage of the messed up line to move quickly into the city. "What the fuck?! Who dared to attack this sovereign?" A brawny man yelled as blood was flowing out of his ears. "Mom...dad....mom....dad..." A little boy who was weeping looked at his little boy who was weeping. Looking at the chaos, Wei smiled, "Ran, you''re really crueler than me." Ran looked at his fingers that has smoke glowing off them, and he blew them out. "Hmph. It was asking for death." Ran snorted as reply. ''How dare it threaten my love...''
