《Ancient Cultivator in Modern World》Chapter 81: Dominance
Advertisement
The light that descended from the heavens slowly entered the room of the duo, whom until now, didn't achieve even an inkling of sleep, painted around their faces, the traces of exhaustion due to last night's affairs, however, Khan had it worse, for he literally looked like a ghost in broad daylight which startled Lily into a laughing fit.
Khan's eyes narrowed at his little wife who desperately sucked him dry, his expression looked like it told, 'And whose fault is it that I'm too tired, today?'
Lily noticed her signal, and her laughing countenance changed into embarassment as she hurriedly picked off her clothes that scattered on the ground and wore it, before scurrying off the kitchen.
Khan gave a small sigh, even with his Divine Emperor Physique, Lily's inexhaustible drive was unbearable, fortunately, his enhanced Physique had its own perks, if not, he would be unable to survive her domineering actions, especially when her switch was turned on.
But he didn't stand up, instead, he contemplated about the memories that he received from the plump man whose name he didn't even bother in remembering as he laid there, eyes closed in concentration.
Scattered remnants of memories could be seen floating inside a dark space, also called as his Sea of Memories, Khan urged his Qi, enveloping all of these memories and forcefully clashed them together, causing an impact which made him cough a mouthful of blood.
"Guah!"
The sheets that he laid on became soiled with a crimson hue, however, his eyes didn't contain any suffering, instead, a light of excitement faintly shone within the deep recesses of his pupils.
With an energy that contrasted his exhausted appearance, he stood up, went towards a nearby cabinet and took a silver paper along with a fountain pen and started scribbling, all of his concentration condensed into the task at hand as after several minutes had passed, a complete Rune was made.
Scanning the surface of the Rune and after finding out that it was flawless, he heaved a sigh of relief and took the Rune Decipherer that the Sect Master gave and scanned it with the Mini Rune Scanner.
The differences between a normal Rune Scanner and a Mini Rune Scanner was that there was a chance of failing when scanning a Rune using a Mini Rune Scanner, however, it wasn't that likely to occur for as long as the Rune was properly symmetrical.
With a mechanical beep, Khan tapped and assigned a hotkey, before slicing the air with his finger as a Spatial Tear materialized before him.
A small smile of excitement leaked from his lips and his eyes stared at the view of the boundless ocean before him.
The gentle breeze and the salty taste of the air, struck his face and his hair violently swayed as he entered, and when he arrived, he found himself inside a remote island near the Continent of Pride.
Fortunately, the Island still existed so it was possible for him to directly Spatial Tunnel towards it, and from now on, he decided that this place would be his daily training grounds.
The island where he stood, only had several towering trees and around it, and there seemed to be no traces of animals apart from turtles whom he spotted, laying their eggs on the shore.
His right arm stretched out, and his left hand, tapped on a hotkey as a Rune the size of a plate materialized in the air before him.

The Rune looked strange, for it shone in several different lights, such as fiery red, transparent white and aquamarine blue.
When it fully formed, a ball of fire the size of a ping-pong ball appeared and slowly floated in the air before him.
Khan stared at the ball of fire, his eyes emanated a light of patience as he stood there, waiting for the activation of the second set of instructions within the Runes.
And indeed, with a brilliant light, the ball of fire became enveloped with a ball of water, yet the fire didn't disappear, instead, the two opposing elements perfectly fused together as the ball of water embrace the ball of fire.
But at the same time, the third set of instructions activated, followed by the appearance of a fierce wind, which forcefully compressed the two elements, making it as small as a walnut seed.
It took longer when describing, yet all of these events transpired in a fraction second. Khan stared at the small violet ball with a slight smile on his face and threw it directly at the ocean.
BAAAAAANG!
A deafening roar ensued as a hundred meter cavity formed on the ocean, forcefully scattering the nearby water and forming a mini-tsunami which struck Khan's body, drenching him in sea water.
"Fuck, I'm retarded." Khan cursed as he repeatedly spat several seaweeds that entered his mouth.
However, the smile that lingered on his face, indicated the emotions that he currently felt, for he actually succeeded in fusing three elements together in a single Rune, namely, Water, Fire, and Air.
He first instructed the Rune to create a small ball of fire and then, he enveloped the Fire with a ball of water, followed by instructing the Wind to forcefully integrate the two opposite elements and the ensuing rejection between the three, caused a large scale explosion, of which, Khan expected.
Since the inspiration for this attack that he made, came from volcanoes. He named this attack, as [Volcanic Strike]
But his smile soon transformed into a sigh, for his eyes saw several huge fishes floating upwards, and with just a single glance, one would know that they were dead.
"Well, since they're food..." Khan whispered as a golden Qi burst from his body, enveloping all the fishes that died and sending them all inside his Spatial Ring that became extremely cramped due to the sudden intrusion of the fishes.
His finger stretched out, and opened a tear in the space, revealing the scene of his bedroom and upon seeing the soiled bedsheets, he took a deep breath, dressed himself and carried it towards the laundry room and there, he basked it with his Qi, erasing all traces of evidence about the blood that he coughed.
When he arrived inside the living room, the smell of several fragrant dishes assaulted his nose, along with the view of two women, working together, with Lily setting up the dishes and the other woman that followed him, yesterday, arranging the table.
"Oh, I was about to call you, but since you're already here, help me carry these dishes to the table." Lily chimed at the side, and Khan's eyes scanned the outfit that she wore.
With a mini-skirt that bobbed slightly in each time she moved, revealing, yet not showing everything towards the spectators, formed a teasing sight, yet Khan only admired it at the side and his body didn't react for he still felt extremely exhausted and he didn't want to activate Lily's switch.

The young woman who observed at the side, and had a clue about their true relationship couldn't help but feel depressed for some reason that she didn't dare to admit.
With Khan's assistance, the arrangement of the dishes composed of several vegetable dishes and meats that Lily hoarded for herself, didn't take long to complete.
The three immediately sat down and ate their meals in tranquility, at the end of their breakfast, Khan spoke towards the young woman.
"Young miss, may I know your name?" He awkwardly smiled as he reached the end of his sentence, for he used quite a formal tone in expressing his concern.
"I'm Code Twenty-One, possessing the genes of a Bear, my defense is top-notch." She respectfully replied, and even stood up, curtsying with the hem of the baggy t-shirt.
Her respectful gesture incited the awkward smiles of the two as Lily hurriedly said while waving her hand, "You don't need to be that respectful to us since it looks like we're of the same age."
"No, since I am under your wing, I should at least treat the two of you with the respect that you deserved, especially, Sir." Her eyes filled with admiration that didn't escape Lily's perception landed on Khan.
She bowed towards him and the baggy clothes, pulled by gravity, revealed the mounds that didn't have any cloth that covered their glory from Khan's line of sight.
He immediately darted his gaze towards the side, revealed a small smile and said, "Mhmm, my little wife, it looks like your meals are getting quite tastier each time you make one."
Lily stared at him speechlessly, 'This guy's technique in switching topics, really is top-notch...' She rolled her eyes at him and didn't bother about Khan anymore as she went beside the young woman and said,
"Sister, addressing you as Twenty-One sounds really weird, how about you give yourself a new name..." She suffused a gentle smile as she spoke.
"A name..." The young woman absentmindedly murmured, for her, the concept of a name was vague and she didn't really care much about it until now, where she thought of names as quite precious.
"Sir, can you give me a name?" Her eyes landed on Khan who was in the middle of drinking a glass of water. Because of her sudden mention, the latter abruptly choked and repeatedly coughed.
Meanwhile, the Lily who observed at the side, sent a cold glare towards his direction, 'Fuck, I got hit when I'm already lying down...'
But in the next instance, he cleared his mind of all distractions as he pondered about the name that he would give towards the young woman.
Lily sighed, "Since she wants you to give her a name, you should properly think about it, and also! If you dare to give her some weird names l won't let you off!"
Khan's figure shivered, and the matter of giving the young woman her own name became his top priority as he sat there in deep contemplation, however, time didn't permit them for it was time for them to go to school.
But before they left, he promised the young woman that he would definitely give her a suitable name and left the mansion in her care.
Upon arrival at the school, everything proceeded according to Khan's expectations, with the students, taking all of their lessons online with only a single teacher as their homeroom teacher, class times became quite boring to him, partly due to his eidetic memory.
When the school ended, Lily told him that they needed to go together towards the Close Combat Club room. Khan heeded without many complaints and soon, the two before a room with a door plaque at the top that said, [Close Combat Club Room]
As they entered, a burst of sweat filled air struck their figures, Khan didn't it, but his little wife that stood at the side frowned.
However, this wasn't the sight that shocked Khan, for the person that fought above the platform in the middle of the room was someone whom he remembered back at the Divine Pills Sect.
"Dastard!"
His voice garnered the attention of the other students that observed the fight, all of their gazes simultaneously landed on Khan's figure.
"Oh, you're already here, Khan." Dastard arranged his outfit and revealed a slight smile, his expression gentle and void of the previous arrogance that he had, stunning Khan speechless.
'How in the hell did he became so gentle and forgiving...' Khan stared silly at the refreshing sight of Dastard, especially when he ruffled his jet-black hair, sending particles of glistening sweat in the air.
The females that witnessed this sight couldn't help but withdraw all of their Image Capturing Devices as several flashes of light illuminated the room, trying their best to capture Dastard's glory.
'Damn he's actually so popular with girls...' Khan suffused a crooked smile.
"Miss Lily, I wonder about the reason why you came back to this club, could it be..." A small hushed tone belonging to that of a man echoed at the side. Unknowingly, a student had already arrived in the space between the two and he even kneeled down, held her hand and spoke in a rhetorical tone.
"Hooh, Vice-Captain's about to show his prowess again..."
"Tssk... Isn't that Lily? The one that Vice-Captain repeatedly courted last year but was always refused by her?"
A commotion broke around them, causing Lily's countenance to furiously blush as she glanced at Khan and pleaded him with her eyes.
Khan's eyes slightly narrowed towards the student's actions and his hand landed on his shoulder. "Bro, I think you're being too close with her."
The student who felt quite proud, yet embarrassed of himself upon hearing the claims of the students around them, didn't even glance at Khan as he replied with an exasperated tone.
"Shut up, who the fuck are you to say that to me?" He stood up, his towering body that was taller than Khan, looked down at him, a fierce light surged within his eyes.
"You're asking who I am?" Khan's lips leaked a slight smile, his gaze darted at Lily before staring back at him, and his finger, lifted, pointing at Lily's figure as he continued.
"I'm her husband."
His words reverberated inside the room akin to that of a lightning bolt, stunning everyone as all of them abruptly turned silent, their gazes, became somewhat strange as they stared at the student.
"It looks like there's gonna be a good show to watch." Dastard, who already retreated at the side, whispered in the air, his eyes, stared at the commotion with a light of excitement and expectations, shining within his jet-black pupils.

Unfortunately, the new capsules cost $100,000 and not many people can afford them, either way the new game World of Destiny was a hit with over 110 million subscriptions!Meet our tragic MC Feng Jun, an injured psychopath that simply wants to get his next kill. He has no MO, he doesn't even care if what he kills is an insect let alone a person. He just has to kill every once in awhile to scratch his itch.

Knowing he has to spend a year in the game minimum for something like this, he sets a goal to insure he doesn't go crazy (er) without having stuff to kill.This is a VRMMO story where the game is closer to zhan long than royal road with a few twists here and there. The world outside of the game is sci fi and has very little impact at least for the first year due to obvious reasons. No gore or explicit sex in this story, if cursing requires a mature tag I will add it later, this story is at best PG-13. Tragedy is for his circumstances and previous life, the game itself isn't tragic at all as it's just a game more or less.(This story will be put out alongside my main story whenever I feel like it for now, no set schedule at this time)
