Aine came to a halt at the astonishing sight. She saw the sailor turning upside down. Just a second ago that she had entered into the living room, she had seen the sailor about to penetrate Lila, but right now, the sailor was being suspended in the air. Aine was still trying to understand what changed and how this happened when all of a sudden, she saw a strange man. She looked at the face of the man, but she could swear that she had never seen that man before. She didn't even have the time to wonder who he was or from where he came.What he was doing at that moment was just something beyond the expectations. The sailor that was being suspended in the air was not just there all of a sudden without a cause; the new strange man was holding up the sailor and had turned him over, hanging him in the air. It seemed as though the strange man had picked up the sailor from on top of Lila and was about to make him pay. But this wasn't even the most intriguing thing about this situation. I
"Stop!!!" A loud cry startled all the girls. The girls were shook to the end of their wits when the shout got to them. They just couldn't believe that something like that happened out of nowhere. The best word to use was that they were not prepared for it. Each girl turned one after the other to see who was so energetic to scream so loudly. They all realised that it was Lila. In fact, Aine, who was still holding on to Lila, was equally shocked. From where did Lila get such voice, let alone the strength?This wasn't the time to ponder on the unnecessary. At this point, Lila was already pulling away from the warm and tight hug of Aine. Lila slowly got up on her feet, and all eyes were on her. Yet again, she found her way to make everyone pay attention to her. She was always so skillful. Linda wished that she could make a sheet of rage spread across her face or perhaps have contempt against Lila, but this wasn't the time. If there was anything that she knew, it was the fact that the
"The scroll!!! Isn't that the scroll belonging to that the young m-" The girl who had wanted to say something held it back for a while. "The man who killed the other strange man?" Another girl added. "That man is your master?" Aine graced the topic. The girls were clueless at this point. They wanted to get to the root of this matter, but there was no way to do that without the verbal assistance of this man standing in front of them. "If you come with me, the scroll will be your reward. I'm sure you came to this island in search of it." Irmais finally came to a stop. One of the girls wanted to argue with him, but another one tugged at her. The girls gathered around, away from Irmais, an attempt to come to a conclusion. Irmais kept a long stare at them, watching each of them speak to each other. If he wanted to eavesdrop on what they were saying, he could easily do that. That was the last thing that would make him worried. He shut his eyes as the cool breeze of the ocean swept ac
Irmais had served a big blow to the ego of the girls. They were finding it really hard to move on from this. This has never been done to them before. Even back in the university, they were usually the talk of the campus. They were the most beautiful. The most popular and everyman would wish that he was their friends!But what had Irmais just said about them? That even if they strip naked in front of his master, the master would not spare them a glance?!That sounded rather preposterous and very annoying to them. From the look on their faces, they definitely would not let this go. "He is bluffing." Linda scoffed after processing the words over and over again. "He can't be saying the truth. How does that even make sense?" Her chuckled got harder this time. She was caught in between the claws of denial and hurt. She didn't know which of the two to hold on to just yet. She didn't want to assume either fully. She wished she had a trick around this. "Even the sons of ambassadors! What
When Cory's eyes opened, he shut it again. He had found himself in this certain position a couple of times, but this time, the environmental conditions were rather strange and different. Naturally, if he was lying on the floor and he had just opened his eyes, there would be a great amount of light concentrated on his face. Mostly, it wasn't intended by the order of nature. Even if it wasn't the strength of the rays of the sun, there would at least be some stray lumiscent idling around the area. There was only to an extent a person could shut their eyes. After this, when they step out into the day, the eyes would definitely dim.Cory couldn't remember how long he had been lying here. He knew that it's been quite a while, but he couldn't do any justice to the order of time. His eyes were very much healthy when he opened his eyes, too. The sun didn't greet his eyes nor any other rays of natural lights. There were only two plausible explanations. It was either it was night or his eye
At this point, it was easy for him to regulate his breathing pace. It would seem as though ever since he came to the realisation of where he was, then he could slowly enjoy the benefits of the place. And that was true. When he looked to the side. Just like magic out of a fantasy book, he started to see impossible things happen:He saw a clear and beautiful lake growing out of the matterless floor. Then he saw plants growing, and trees and gardens. It would seem as though he was just experiencing the fresh start of the creations of all things. He was so impressed that he couldn't even find a word for the things that were right there in front of him. He didn't think there was really a point saying a word. Just the sight and the peaceful mind would already do the magic of assimilation and appreciation. Before he knew, the matterless and shapeless realm had been transformed into a breathtaking lush and greenery land. It was something that he could never have imagined in his wildest
"What was that?" Cory wondered, walking away from the spot. There were a couple of things he was trying to process at this point. He needed to get his thoughts straight before he would be able to let any ideas in or even distractions. Just a few seconds ago, he was conflicted, standing in an empty space that suddenly turned into an island with lush and beautiful greenery sight to behold. He was still trying to understand where all of this came from or what sort of magic it was when his chest had started burning from the object around his neck. The object that glittered. Then the object had burnt fiercely against his chest, and now he has landed here. In the villa on the earthly island. "How many surprises are left for me to experience today?" He wondered if that was even the right question to ask. He sighed. Then, slowly, other ideas started to flow into his mind. He recalled slowly that he didn't even get to see his parents. What the hell was really happening to him? Hadn't he
Cory shut the door behind him as he stepped out of the building. He was now standing in front of one of the less-throdden areas of his property. It was after he stepped out of the living room that he realised that the living room he had just stepped out of was the second living room, not the first one that was opposite the pool. Although he owned the villa and all the lands surrounding it, yet he hardly had the time to explore the other parts of the building. He threw that thought into the garbage can as his mind bounce back on why he had stepped out of the living room in the first place. "Irmais." He repeated, then his face folded. He needed to find Irmais as soon as possible. If the system was still at his mercy, he would have found a way to locate Irmais. Right now, he was the Immortal Dao, and the system had been dissolved. He knew that he had a lot of potentials but he wasn't certain of how to reach them yet. At least he would need a week of cultivation to finally attain th
