This is a fan fiction continuation of Xiao Qian's fantasy novel, Instant Kill, published on the 17K Novel Network. I began writing it on November 29, 2014, after obtaining his permission.
Instant Kill is a fine work. Though its plot has a few inconsistencies, it is fresh and imaginative, with a boundlessly inventive premise. The only regret is that the ending feels too rushed, leaving readers frustrated. After much deliberation, I decided to write my own sequel to Instant Kill.
Considering that few readers nowadays have probably read Instant Kill, I have made some changes to the opening to make this book less dependent on it. Where there was no way around it, I briefly explain things through flashbacks.
So this is now a completely new novel. Out of respect for Xiao, this introduction also serves to promote his work, but you don't need to read Instant Kill to enjoy this book. The plot will still make sense, because even I have forgotten what happened in Instant Kill.
