    Thanks for the info! It's explained pretty explicitly in the first chapter anyway (posting tomorrow) but I'll consider adding an extra footnote. :)

    Yes!!! Welcome fellow reader and thank you for explaining about 'head stick', even if I don't like the gory imagery it brings up;;; 〣( ºжº )〣

    I got off my lazy butt and re-read that chapter without relying solely on the mtl which cleared up so many things but also made things more upsetting hnggggg this seamless misunderstanding aggghh!! Definitely, MC's a great patron of the Blank-faced Arts but ML was very scared too which distorted the words of MC in his mind TToTT)ノ

    Ooh hahahaha, it's probably mean but I couldn't help burst out laughing that way you worded that.

    Odd question, but was ML pushed off the ravine or slapped off by MC?

    He was stabbed but then MC took out the sword and ML managed to steady himself after that. He still had hope that MC wouldn't push him away even after he got stabbed but when he was pushed/slapped off into the abyss, MC described how he'll never forget the look in ML's eyes that were devoid of hope?? Not too sure;;

    I feel like, if ML was slapped off, then that might've felt a tad more painful than just being pushed off ( ˃̣̣̥o˂̣̣̥ )

    Ahhhh don't ruuun- I'll hug you, c'mere!

    About that, I'm not too clear on the details actually. I'll go skim through again and try to find out ヘ(= ̄﹏ ̄)ノ

    UPDATE: So far, I can't seem to find the reason for why original!ML led original!MC there - though, it doesn't seem to be explained in the extras...Scriptor?

    Persevere scriptor! also, since u kind of rely on pinyin, do u want to try mdbg.net? It gives the pinyin as well as the definitions of the character side by side n it auto translates idioms instead of placing them apart although in some cases, the site does translate a few characters together when they should be separate.

    origMC hated origML's guts bc he was a prodigy who started cultivating at the right time while on the other hand, origMC was also a prodigy but he missed the optimal age to start cultivating n as such is stuck at his current cultivation lvl n unlikely to improve. Due to the reasons behind why he couldnt start cultivating early on, origMC is REALLY sensitive about his cultivation lvl n prior to receiving origML as a disciple, he took in several other disciples who seemed like prodigies n permanently crippled their cultivation. At the ravine scene, origMC had found out beforehand that origML was somehow related to the devils n so, he used it as a good excuse to outright get rid of origML since all his previous attempts to ruin him had failed so might as well kill him n be rid of an eyesore.

    Thank you for the tip! I'll check it out. Currently I'm editing because the English is coming out all clunky compared to how it looks in Chinese ahaha. Sentence construction is so different. XD

    I know rite? Never knew how difficult translating was until I actually did it myself :confused: I usually read thru an entire sentence before i translate n restructure it in eng. Otherwise, the words after a comma wont flow well with the words b4 the comma n there are a lot of commas in an cn novel sentence :LOL::ROFLMAO::cry:. The thing i hated most tho was the slang or ancient terminology. Its why i gave up on reading the raws of cn novels set in ancient times or sci fi ones or those related to gaming :)cry: had to give up on reading ahead of the eng trans of kings avatar)

    Woah!! Thank you very much for answering - I never really understood the details but it makes sense now why original!MC turned out to be quite twisted.

    Ohhh Scriptor! You can do it!! Regarding the question, it's alright now & sorry about calling out to you when you were busy;; No rush, seriously, Scriptor. (๑•̀ㅂ•́)و

    Ahhh, that was a great start to the novel.
    Thank you so much for working on it and sharing it with everyone, Scriptor!! σ(≧ε≦o)
    Like Alexfilia said, good luck! (with your exams??assessments?? - all the best nonetheless)
    Incidentally, I immediately thought the author's pen name, "Airplane Shooting Towards the Sky" was "Airplane Shooting Towards Mo Bei's Thighs" lol whoops My eyes are swimming again, today XD
