Dear Readers,

  Thank you for reading Immortal Yakuza. I'm sad to inform you that the story ends here. It's a spin-off of Immortal Paladin, an idea that struck me suddenly on New Year's—on impulse (I faintly remember being a bit drunk at the time). Half the motivation was to see how much I'd improved in my xianxia writing, and the other half was to expand on some world-building elements I'd wanted to explore after finishing my main series.

  Immortal Paladin was a story crammed with everything I loved, which made it quite a mess in hindsight. But it was my first series that really took off in terms of readership. I received responses, comments, and all sorts of feedback that either broke or lifted my spirits. It was an enormous learning experience, and I can confidently say it improved my writing, as evidenced in Immortal Yakuza.

  Enjoying the story? Show your support by reading it on the official site.

  Immortal Yakuza started with a solid plan and a draft to guide me, and I'd dare say my writing did improve! I had little hope it would gain massive traction, but I've now reached a point where I've decided to drop it. I initially planned for three books, but I've chosen to end it here so I can invest my time and energy into other projects.

  Thank you for your participation and for reading this piece of fiction I created. I truly believe a story is only complete when there's a reader involved, since that's what brings sincerity to it.

  That's all! Thank you again. Hopefully, I'll see you wherever or whenever in my next writing projects!

  Best,
