April 30th marked Baili's birthday in 2011.

Time truly flies; in the blink of an eye, our protagonist from Purple Mansion, Ye Qin, has also just celebrated his centennial birthday in his cultivation journey. The years have slipped away, silent and unnoticed.

He has finally reached the seventh layer of the Golden Core, and soon he will strive for the higher ninth layer of the Golden Core realm, preparing to breach the great threshold of Nascent Soul.

To all my readers, if you have recommendation tickets, please cast one—one vote per person.

I will celebrate this birthday alongside you, dear readers, and with our protagonist, Ye Qin.

I also want to express my gratitude for all the well-wishes from the readers—every blessing, every cartoon gift posted on the forums, my QQ Weibo, my personal space, and on Baidu. I have seen them all, and I am deeply moved.

Since it is my birthday today, I won't be going out; I will push hard and strive to release two more chapters.

I haven't missed an update at all this month. The only exception was one day when I had to accompany my older sister on a trip back to her maternal home, resulting in a missed chapter, but I made up for it twofold the very next day.

Baili will be spending this May Day holiday together with all you dedicated readers.
