Author’s Note + Some Comments

There was an author’s note at the end of 247-248 that I didn’t put at the end of the chapter by mistake, as I was in a rush to get all the chapters out. I have updated the end of ch248 now to include it. I highly encourage everyone to read it. There is another author’s note at the end of 249-250 that is much clearer and more detailed than this one, but I still think it’s best to read both. I will make sure to add the second author’s note at the end of ch250, whenever that is released.

There have been an astounding number of comments and views with this mass release, and it’s really amazed me. I thank everyone for their support! It seems that the site will hit 4M sooner than I had anticipated :O

To clear some things up:

1. As I mentioned in the last chapter post, the next CCM chapter will not be out until next week, as I am busy with school and I also need to do Cheating Craft.
2. The reason I released up to 248 and not 247 is because 247-248 is a combined chapter, and is really the more truthful ending to the war arc. Honestly, I felt that the end of 247 was suspenseful too anyways (if you consider it as if you never saw 248 :P). In general, I just found it to be a more appropriate ending, even though it’s a cliffhanger. (And I have to admit that I find the comments quite amusing…).
3. I know the turn of events is a shock to many people, and may cause them to want to drop it. However, I do encourage you all to read the author’s note I just put up, as well as wait out the next few chapters. There is a reason for these events, and although you may feel like the story has been ruined, the plot actually moves on and gets better in my point of view. You should all try reading at least a few more chapters ahead before deciding anything. The author’s note at the end of ch250 clarifies many things as well. I personally enjoyed these few chapters, and found them very interesting :P
4. While I know that the cliffhanger builds up suspense, please do not post any spoilers on the site or on the chat. Spoilers meaning any content that has not yet been released, regardless of how “minor” it may seem. If any are found on the site, they will be deleted. While I’m sure you want to share the knowledge you may have imparted from reading the mtl or looking up spoilers online, it can and will ruin people’s reading experiences, especially as this is a major turning event of the story. Spoilers are just hints, bare minimum points of description that may tell someone what happens, but doesn’t include the details, the depth of explanation, or the writing style that the real chapter has. Unfortunately, people that read spoilers tend to not read the actual chapter, and may drop the series for such a simple and avoidable reason, which I find a great shame. Therefore, I ask you to please refrain from sharing any spoilers. Of course, if you really want spoilers, feel free to mtl the raws yourself. There are also spoilers on the forums at Wuxiaworld, although I warn you before venturing in those for the same reasons listed above, as well as the fact that the forums contains spoilers up until the end of the story. Really though, I assure you that reading the actual chapters will give a much more comprehensive, impactful effect, and it’s best to wait for them. At least, I can personally say that I really enjoyed the next few chapters.
