Mid-Month Summary (Answering Readers' Questions and a Few Complaints from This Lazy Fish)

Before we knew it, 15 days had passed since it was launched.

These past 15 days of updates have been incredibly stressful...

It's so hard... so really hard...

Of course, ultimately it comes down to Xianyu's lack of skill; there were some things he wanted to express but failed to do.

First, let me answer a few questions from my readers, one by one.

[Question: Why Bai Jiu Yi so heartless? Why did she kill the male lead?]

[Answer: The reader who asked this question has probably already given up on the book...]

No problem, I still have to answer.

Cultivating immortality is a kind of obsession. Some people abandon their sects for cultivation, some sever their Seven Emotions and Six Desires desires for cultivation, and some take a crooked path Become Devil path for cultivation. The fox clan proves the way through "emotion". Bai Jiu Yi is the most talented white fox in thousands of years, or even tens of thousands of years. For her, Ascension is certain and necessary. It is like a top student who must get into Peking University and Tsinghua University.

However, an uncertainty has now arisen within what he considers "necessary," namely, Jiang Yida...

Mind Reading but has never understood love. Although she has lived for a thousand years, she is still just a clueless young girl when it comes to love. When such a girl truly encounters love, she is confused and afraid.

Confused and afraid, the girl, unaware of love, pondered how to resolve the situation. Jiu Yi, true to her nature, said, "I like you, but I believe cultivation is more important! Cultivation is the foundation of my fox clan! I don't want to waste my breath on you." Thus, she devised a simple and direct method to understand the complexities of her feelings.

But did anyone notice any details in the original text?

As her tail pierced Jiang Yida's abdomen, she wept. She didn't even know why she was crying, and it was the first time in her life she had ever cried for a man.

I don't know if everyone has highlighted the key point: when Jiu Yi was about to kill Yi Da, her hand was trembling because she realized that she couldn't bring herself to do it, so she wanted someone else to do it.

But even if someone else were to deliver the final blow to Yida, would she really watch it? It's just that Xianyu deliberately didn't write it out.

If that's really the case, then she could have killed Jiang Lin several times back then. On the day Jiang Lin snatched her Sugar-coated Haws, she was already at the Immortal Realm, so why did she let Jiang Lin and Yuni go?

The reasons behind this are something you'll have to figure out for yourself.

Taking advantage of Jiu Yi's dazed state, Jiang Lin grabbed her wrist and pierced his own heart. Some people wondered if Jiu Yi's reaction was too slow...

This is actually another detail.

This was the first time Jiu Yi's wrist had been held by a man. When she was held, she found herself unable to resist. Because of this unprecedented feeling, she was stunned... and when she came to her senses, her wrist had already pierced his heart.

At this moment, Jiu Yi was completely stunned. Her mind was blank. She wanted to save Jiang Lin, but it was too late. After Jiang Lin, her world turned gray. Who said that Jiu Yi could be at peace after Yi Da's death? It's just that it hasn't been written yet.

This might involve spoilers, so I won't say anything more; you'll have to experience it for yourselves.

In short, this is the story of a little girl who is completely unaware of love, and her journey to understanding and experiencing it. Jiu Yi and Jiang Lin will meet again in the future, but how they will meet again, their feelings upon meeting, and the ending will not be spoiled here.

[Q: Why does Bai Jiu Yi's master treat our adorable Da Pao like a tool?! I hate her!]

[Answer: I don't know if the person who asked this question is still around...]

First of all, cultivators and mortals are fundamentally different concepts. How can you expect cultivators to treat mortals the same way? That's impossible. This isn't about superiority, but rather a detached mindset. For example, would you worry about whether an ant is doing well or if there will be meat for dinner?

It's just that the subject of the "mortal" analogy is the protagonist, so everyone's reaction has been overblown.

Besides, Bai Qianluo has already done very well, really very well. Many cultivators would kill someone to resolve karmic debts, but she only sealed their memories... Of course, this is also a foreshadowing of Bai Qianluo's character, I won't spoil it.

[Q: Kong Ba Ba so amazing, why didn't he come to Donglin City sooner? ~~~ Trash author!!!]

[Answer: Uh... I didn't express myself clearly here. Kong Ba Ba is at the Immortal Realm, but even Immortal Realm aren't omnipotent. The Blood Name Array is Ancient Forbidden Blood Array, and it has its own reasons for being powerful. Otherwise, finding just one person would be too much of a rip-off.]

When the Blood Name Array is activated, it is like a small natural Small World, isolated from the outside world. At this time, not only Kong Ba Ba, but even the sages of the Confucian Academy do not know about it.

Therefore, Kong Ba Ba was unaware of it beforehand. The reason Kong Ba Ba sensed it was because the Blood Name Array was about to be activated that night, and it was looking for Kong Ba Ba. The arrow was pointing at Kong Ba Ba, and that's when Kong Ba Ba realized it.

After sensing the danger, Kong Ba Ba realized it was too late to get there. He then pleaded with Tai Er Zhenjun, even sacrificing his integrity to beg for help. In the end, Tai Er Zhenjun, true to his word, took on the karmic risk, using his own Heart Blood and the blood of chickens and ducks to create a small Blood Name Array, Kong Ba Ba to be teleported there.

[Q: Why isn't Lotus Jiang Lin's?! Then why write so much about Lotus and Jiang Lin's interactions?! You lazy bum, you're just padding your word count! I'll kill you!]

A: First of all, Lotus definitely doesn't Jiang Lin, that's for sure. After all, Wu Ke has already suffered so much, and to have him suffer even more... even a salted fish like me can't bear it...

As for the number of characters in the exchange between Lianhua and Jiang Lin, that's truly a misrepresentation.

Lotus's journey in Donglin City is a natural progression, and the best way to highlight Lotus's personality and character with the fewest words possible, leaving a lasting impression on the audience, is through interaction with the protagonist.

Similarly, Lianhua mistakenly took her dependence on Yida (a type of chewing gum) as affection. This was to contrast Lianhua's true love for Wu Ke. By comparing the two, Lianhua finally understood what liking and true love were. This is also a point of conflict and enlightenment... Even a salted fish can't explain it clearly, and explaining it would lose its flavor; it can only be left for you to experience.

At least for now, Xianyu feels that the image of Lotus has been successfully created. If it weren't successful, why would everyone have reacted so strongly? Xianyu is quite satisfied with this aspect.

Of course, it's also Xianyu's fault for not pacing the storyline well with the main character, which led some readers to misunderstand. This is Xianyu's problem, and Xianyu will pay attention to it.

Actually, Wu Ke's story is really quite good, but I won't spoil it...

[Q: Salty Fish Old Thief, where's your group?]

[Answer: It's really impossible to create one (What do you experienced drivers want to do by joining the group? Don't you know what a lazy bum like you are?)]

Q: Is using internet memes too deliberate?

[Answer: All the memes were just spontaneous; Xianyu never intentionally used any memes.]

Q: Salty Fish, where's your sister?!

[Answer: Who dares to lay a finger on my sister! (Draws a knife from his crotch)]

[Q: Salty Fish, where's your midnight watch?!]

[Answer: This counts as two chapters combined, please don't disagree (crying).]

Basically, that concludes the Q&A for these fifteen days. If you have any questions, please leave a comment (preferably on Qidian; readers on Tencent might miss some due to system limitations). I will be answering questions in a separate chapter every two weeks.

Of course, some overly emotional comments may incite arguments or affect the experience of other readers, and Xianyu may delete them. If any are deleted, Xianyu will definitely reply, so please check your Xianyu messages.

Of course, even if your comment is deleted, Xianyu will still answer your questions, that's for sure.

Writing a book is so hard...

I keep getting yelled at...

And still trying to please...

They're all bald...

There are still people criticizing...

I will work harder and keep improving to give everyone the best story. I also hope that everyone can be patient with me.

That's all for now, see you next time for a summary~~~~ (It should be at the end of the month, anyway, I do a summary every two weeks~~~)
