Mo Lan looked up at Anthony, noticing his inner turmoil.He quickly paid the woman and grabbed their packed kebabs, drawing the confused Anthony away.Anthony kept trying to reach out to the system to no avail, making him feel very desperate and sad.The system had said that it transported him to another dimension during the times he learnt the other techniques. Which means that he was probably in another world in a different time wheel.However, unlike the other times which didn't take much time, making it seem like a trance, this time was damn real.He was here in his real body, in a strange galaxy and dimension, where the inhabitants were living poorly.And worse, it seems like there was no way out. Is this the life of power and luxury that the system promised him?"Brother An, don't mind them. Being able to get in here in the first place means that you're exceptional. So I'm sure that you can find a way out once you find what you seek," the boy consoled, as they diverted into anot
Anthony looked around in shock, the guards were wearing menacing growls, and worse, Anthony could feel spiritual energy from their weapon showing that it's a very lethal artifact, not a mere weapon."What's wrong? What did I do? Who sent you?" Anthony asked angrily, forcing himself to keep calm.Just then, Mo Lan's mom who had gone in to get them more rice wine came out and screamed in horror.The jar of wine slipped off from her hands, and she quickly rushed to the guards."First brother, what happened? Why are your men in my house?" She asked in tears, holding the captain of the guards tightly, while staring at him with her big, bright eyes.The man sighed, his expression softening."Bing Yu, I'm not here for you or your family members. I'm here for this spy that managed to sneak in here. He might have an ulterior motive, so we need to take him to the valley Lord for questioning. Just relax, it's none of your business," the man said, patting her arms."But he's my guest. He's just a
Anthony sat down calmly, deciding that he wouldn't bother himself much about the so-called execution till he meets their shitty and arrogant valley Lord.His stomach grumbled, reminding him that he had not eaten dinner."Damn it, those bastards. How dare they come just before dinner? Why couldn't they wait for one more hour?" He whispered sadly, remembering the delicious bowls of noodles, tofu dough with lots of juicy meat and fillings, grilled chicken and spiced vegetables which Mo Lan's mom was making for dinner.She had intended to make dinner with beef, but after Anthony expelled some of the poisonous gasses from Mo Lan's belly, she decided to kill another of her fat chickens, and grill it for Anthony's benefit, to show her gratitude; since she can't offer him anything else than good food and hospitality."I didn't even get to enjoy them. Damn it, and it smelled so good," Anthony cursed, holding his belly. The lunch he ate with them gave him an inkling of what a great cook she was
The valley Lord chuckled coldly."Indeed, a calf doesn't know to be afraid of a lion, nor does a newly hatched chick fear the hawk. Commendable, even if you die here today, at least, you would have made a deep impression on everyone present," he said with a smile, shooting colored gasses at Anthony.Anthony gasped in excitement, watching the technique being used by the valley Lord. It was obviously the technique he came for.He dodged the streak just in time, while throwing his fists towards the valley Lord, reflecting his attacks back to him. But rather than hurt him, he simply inhaled the toxins back into his body."Amazing! Such a great technique. No wonder you're not willing to share it with anybody. However, I must learn this technique today, old cross eyed geezer," Anthony mocked, running round the hall while avoiding the man's attack.This continued for an hour, infuriating the valley Lord.Rather than kill Anthony, he only ended up damaging the ancestral hall severely while ki
Anthony quickly shot to his feet, crossing his hands before him to ward off the old man's attacks.The bracelet on his wrist emitted a golden glow, protecting him.However, he was still thrown up in the air, crashing against the wall, showing that the power disparity between them was too much.Anthony coughed up blood, getting to his feet.He wiped his mouth with his right palm, facing off against the old man who was already sending a thunder fist towards him.He quickly defended with his left hand wearing the bracelet while the right hand instinctively punched out to ward off the man's attacks.Surprisingly, a red streak of light was emitted from Anthony's signet ring, hitting the old man squarely on the chest, thereby pushing him back a few feets."Ancestor!" Everyone in the room shouted in shock, staring at the old man in shock.They were not the only ones surprised.Anthony was staring at the golden ring on his fingers which had a huge block of ruby designing it.His brows furrowe
The Poison Valley ancestor noticed the smile on Anthony's face and scoffed."Hm! I'm sure it feels quite good to act as you please. However, wipe that annoying smirk on your face, I might be tempted to wash it away and damn the consequences," he said in irritation.Anthony furrowed his brows for a while before he quickly realized what his happy smile looked like to them."Ancestor, I'm afraid you've misunderstood me. I wouldn't dare. I was just happy because he swore not to assist me, telling me I'm on my own. So seeing him here in the nick of time made me relieved, he came after all. He probably said it so that I won't relax on the way and assume he's following me. I'm just relieved he changed his mind about guiding me," He quickly explained, looking at them.Anthony knew that if he continued to act arrogant without giving them face, they would do everything to sabotage him out of spite.When you push a man to the wall, gauging his actions is quite difficult. So he would rather not m
"Congratulations on successfully passing your first transmigration mission. You have been awarded three heaven-ranked scriptures," the system announced, startling Anthony."You shitty, perverted system, I thought you have been disabled for good. Hmph!" He complained, feeling upset."Don't blame me, you insisted on coming here," the system reminded lazily."You didn't tell me learning it will be different from other times," he argued back."You didn't ask. It's too late to argue, it is what it is. But you should be thanking me, you came on such an exciting adventure, increasing your life experience, meeting new people, enjoying foreign delicacies that you probably would not have been privileged to taste in ten lifetimes. And most importantly, you finally got to meet the mastermind. Even if it was only his voice projection, at least, it gave you an idea of how powerful he is. He keeps an eye on whoever he wants to, no matter the distance. Do you know how many people will kill ten thousa
Anthony furrowed his brows in confusion."What do you mean? You asked me not to take any weapons to avoid incurring their wrath. Besides, time is of the essence, I want to leave," Anthony replied in irritation, obviously fed up with the system's mischievous behavior."Short-sighted, are we? Do you know the kind of treasure trove they just delivered to you? It will be quite a waste not to take advantage of it all. If you take the weapons, they will immediately realize that something got missing. But if you learn the technique, how will they know you stole their techniques? You must quickly help yourself to them, all these are priceless techniques and formulas. No one needs to know you took them, unless you tell them of course. Even if you don't have suitable weapons to go with them now, it's still very useful. You can even chance upon compatible weapons to combine them with. If you come across a technique you don't like, just learn it and cram it, scan the information and store them in
