Yay, so many drama fans! Whoever picked “Eww, never” to watching the drama, we’re gonna need to have a chat… D<

Sorry about the slow updates, and potential future slow updates. An impending doom is nearing fast, so my schedule (and brain) is a bit wonky. I’ll probably have at least a chapter a week, though. Seriously, mad respect for the people who can push out a chapter a day. 

Chapter 19: The Faded Past

“What did you say?” Meng Zhi almost jumped up in astonishment. “Prince Qi has a child?!”

“You didn’t know about this either?” Mei Changsu was a bit surprised. “Jingyan really kept a tight lid on the secret, but that’s hardly surprising. If even the slightest bit of news fall into the ears of the Crown Prince or Prince Yu, then Tingsheng’s life is forfeit…” Continue reading “Nirvana in Fire Chapter 19: The Faded Past”

Happy (early) Thanksgiving, Canadians! Feiliu the sweetest thing ever <33 The feels, people. The feels. ;~;

 

Chapter 18: Old Friend

That night, Xiao Jingrui brought home a Royal Physician for Mei Changsu, but the doctor was afraid to interfere once he learned that the patient was taking medicine from Dr. Xun. He left orders to “rest well and avoid emotional stress”, then left immediately. Mei Changsu sent Xiao Jingrui off with the doctor, using the excuse of wanting to sleep early. He didn’t actually go to bed. Rather, he threw on a coat, opened the windows, and sat quietly beneath the windowsill. He stared at the crescent moon hanging in the sky, as if in deep thought. Continue reading “Nirvana in Fire Chapter 18: Old Friend”

*whispers* SHINee’s back!

In celebration for that (and totally not because I was really close to finishing), chapter 17! Time for things to get fired up! As always, hope you enjoy.  <3

 

Chapter 17: Choosing a Master

As to Mei Changsu’s sudden promise, the person who ended up being the most astounded was actually Prince Jing. Compared to Xiao Jingrui, he had a better understanding of the child’s status, and he knew exactly how difficult it would be to take him away from the Secluded Courtyard. After all, even the significant efforts of a Prince could not achieve the goal of taking Tingsheng into his manor. This young man was simply a good friend of a Marquess’s son. It would probably be futile even with Xiao Jingrui’s assistance, and this would merely result in another disappointment for Tingsheng. Continue reading “Nirvana in Fire Chapter 17: Choosing a Master”

The chapters are getting longer…OTL. Each chapter is about 1.5-2x the length of the beginning chapters, but I’m stubborn and want to complete them under the same amount of time. But alas, that’s impossible… So, if these releases slow down, it’s not because I got lazy, but because past-Hai Yan was too diligent. .___.

 

Chapter 16: Prince Jing

“Here, let’s head in first.” Xiao Jingrui jumped down from the carriage and lifted the child down as well. He instructed the servant who came up to greet them, “Go summon a doctor.”

Mei Changsu followed them, stooping out from the carriage. He carried the heavy bag of books, wondering how the little child managed to lift it. Continue reading “Nirvana in Fire Chapter 16: Prince Jing”

The two versions of the novel are the same from this chapter onwards. Yay chapter titles! \o/

Weekly Langya Ranking Results: 
Q: If you had to choose a side…  
A: the Crown Prince = 72.73%, Prince Yu = 27.27%

So, the Crown Prince won by a landslide. Why do you guys like him so much? Is it ’cause there’s a better chance for him to win (being the Crown Prince and all)? To be honest, I think Prince Yu would treat his minions better… New poll is up!

 

Chapter 15: Tingsheng

Yan Yujin had long since gotten tired of the snide attacks within the tent and had run out alone to watch the tournament. He only returned after seeing the two Princes leave, and saw Mei Changsu coughing nonstop on the chair, with Xiao Jingrui patting his back gently. Yan Yujin asked immediately, “What’s wrong, Su? Are you sick again?” Continue reading “Nirvana in Fire Chapter 15: Tingsheng”

Guess who’s (almost) back! MAMAMOO! THAT’S RIGHT! OH YEAH! 

…Ahem. On a more on-topic note, this will be the last chapter in the modified section of the novel, and the last untitled chapter. Enjoy!

Modified version? What’s that? Here is a note on the different versions of Nirvana in Fire.

Chapter 14 (Modified Version)

The youth vanished before everyone’s eyes. The Crown Prince stood dumbstruck, his face a shade darker. On the other hand, Prince Yu was getting cramps from suppressing his laughter. Continue reading “Nirvana in Fire Chapter 14 (Modified Version)”

Basically, Mei Changsu is awesome, Feiliu is adorable, and nobody likes Xie Bi. Poor guy. :( New poll is up! If you had to choose a side, would you choose the Crown Prince or Prince Yu?

I was very surprised by the attention these translations received. I was expecting something like 10 readers haha. A hearty thank you to everyone who left lovely feedback and/or caught mistakes for me! Keep ’em coming please~

Chapter 13 (Modified Version)

While Mei Changsu and Princess Nihuang were having a tête-à-tête on the Phoenix Building, the young people within the tent were feeling rather uneasy. They surrounded Mei Changsu as soon as he returned.

“What did the Princess say to you?” asked Yan Yujin, who rushed to the front with curiosity. Continue reading “Nirvana in Fire Chapter 13 (Modified Version)”

That’s it for the first batch! The rest of the chapters will come out individually at a slower pace. I hope that was enough to hook you on this amazing story!

“Qilin?” Mei Changsu laughed. “Take a look at me, Princess. Do you think that I have anything to do with the odd-looking creature?” Continue reading “Nirvana in Fire Chapter 12 (Modified Version)”

Chapter 11 (Modified Version)

Princess Nihuang walked over gracefully, surrounded by an air of power. She walked straight to Mei Changsu and paid no mind to the many pairs of eyes on her. She smiled and said, “The warm hall is too stuffy, it does not suit someone from the battlefields like me. If Mr. Su does not object, would you join me for a walk along the corridor and see how the tournament below is progressing?” Continue reading “Nirvana in Fire Chapter 11 (Modified Version)”
