Anabelle quietly took Anthony to view the rolls-Royce phantom.“This is the rolls-Royce phantom. It's priced at 8.8 million dollars. It's currently the most expensive in here” she said humbly.“Good, I want to pay with a card!” Anthony said, looking at the time.The girl's heart skipped a beat, but she rushed to the cashier anyway, praying that the sale would go through.Anthony hurriedly followed her, looking anxiously at the time.He had just an hour left.And there were still more than a million dollars to spend. “Sir, do you want to drive it out, or should we deliver it? Fifty thousand dollars will be paid if you need us to deliver it. What's your permanent address?” She asked humbly.'Shit! I still live in that shitty dorm. I should have just bought a house instead,' Anthony cursed internally.“Send it to my dorm tomorrow. You can mail the papers to me. Here's my phone number and email,” Anthony said, forcing himself to remain calm.The girl's hand was shaking as she slipped Ant
Anthony quickly found a secluded corner so that he could comfortably understand what the system was yapping about.“Wait, I thought that after spending the money, the task function will be activated, then I will be sent on missions in order to be eligible for more rewards?” Anthony asked.“Yes. However, you unknowingly accomplished your first mission while spending your welcome bonus. The tasks are divided into four sections: Easy, medium, hard, and life-threatening. However, you're not eligible for life-threatening missions until you reach level 5. The mission you just accomplished is under the hard category. You were meant to pay the girl's bills, if you had chosen the hard category. You would have been forced to find a way to raise money for her, but you unknowingly paid the bills with your bonus, killing two birds with one stone. Each task has complementary rewards. And the rewards increase with the level of difficulty of the task chosen,” the system explained, making Anthony smil
“I will not reject you, but bridle your tongue. The knowledge of the existence of such a system will cause chaos, which you're not yet ready to weather. Powerful masters will come for it, hoping to kill you in their bid to steal it and forcefully merge it to their body,” the system chastised, filling Anthony with remorse.“Just accept her offer to repay you. She can work as your maid in the villa which you are meant to buy. It will also accord you the opportunity to take care of her. Her life was worse than yours. She hadn't even gotten into college because someone stole her scholarship. You can pay for her education and nurture her into a capable assistant. I have analyzed her, and she's loyal,” the system said.Just then, Anthony noticed that the girl was still talking to him.“Okay, fine. I accept. You can work as a helper in my villa, cleaning and cooking to show your gratitude,” Anthony said calmly.“Thank you! Thank you, sir!” The girl hurriedly shouted, heaving a sigh of relief
Anthony shook his head as he typed away at his new Mac.Clara was too materialistic, making Kelvin have an easy time in taking advantage of her.The rumors that she was still a virgin must have filtered into Kelvin's ears, grabbing the Playboy's attention.He simply had sex with Clara and dumped her immediately he got what he wanted, less than 48 hours after causing a commotion at school to impress her.Theirs was probably the shortest celebrity dating history at royal city college.The truth was that Clara was not qualified to be Kelvin's partner.Her background was not powerful enough to give him the kind of backing he needed to ascend JK group's position of power.He needs a powerful in-law that will help him defeat his other rivals. Hailey happened to have such a background, making her the full package.Clara was just a tool for Kelvin to satiate his lust and curiosity.Virgins were rare in the top social circle because many heirs and heiresses engage in dirty plays from their tee
Anthony woke up with a loud buzz in his head.He noticed that he was holding a transparent packet of thirty-six golden needles, and opened his drawer, tiredly shoved it in.“Congratulations master, you have successfully learned the golden needle life-saving technique. It's 2a.m, you can sleep now. I will wake you up once it's time for your lunch date,” the system whispered like a kind mother, pretending to be servile to pacify Anthony.“My idiotic, shitty, taskmaster system. I love you,” he whispered, drifting off to sleep.*****The school was abuzz with gossip.Everyone wondered who the enigmatic Mr. Money was.Not just that, Kelvin who was standing beside his Ferrari with a bouquet of flowers and a jeweled box that looked like a ring was another attraction.Clara was also there trying to speak to Kelvin, but Kelvin ignored her, fixing his eyes on the entrance of their school's prestigious five-star eatery where Hailey had scheduled the date.Clara stepped aside in shame, making som
“Anthony, please wait for me,” she shouted, rushing after him.She had thought about it long and hard while watching him on a date with Hailey.It's obvious he doesn't love Hailey.He constantly tries to hold her whenever they are together.However, Clara always tactically avoids his touch.Maybe, just maybe, she can get him back by piggybacking on his immense love for her.“She's indeed shameless,” people murmured.However, Clara couldn't care less.She quickly hugged Anthony's arm, pulling him back.Anthony screamed and jumped up in shock, hurriedly wiping his cloth with his handkerchief.“Are you nuts? Do you want to stain my white suit?” He asked angrily, feeling satisfied with the current situation.Clara blushed and bit her lips.“What do you mean? You used to beg me to let you touch me,” she said unhappily, riling up the crowd even more.“I don't know what you're talking about. We never dated, you said so yourself. Everyone heard you. I don't know who you are. Please desist fro
The system began to laugh, taking Anthony aback.“Wait, what's funny? Can you laugh? Don't tell me you were also programmed with emotions?” Anthony asked, feeling astonished.“Yes. I'm a product of artificial intelligence. However, I'm higher than the rest. I was programmed with a woman's voice and emotions. A woman was used to model my actions. She was the mastermind's daughter. However, she's currently not in this galaxy. She lives in another dimension, five million light years away from earth. Meeting each other is impossible. The mastermind was an unfathomable existence, only he had the ability to cross in between worlds as he pleases. He kept this system on earth when he stopped briefly over here. And you're the lucky-chosen host,” the system explained, making Anthony wonder who this mastermind that left a quintillion dollars and other treasures casually, and made it so that more money will continue coming to him.Is he God?“Stop thinking about things that are beyond your compr
"Congratulations on succesfully passing another mission. You've been awarded a hundred contribution points, a hundred billion dollars, and five lucky draws. Do you want to cash them out?" The system asked, immediately Anthony entered the car."Wow, can I spin the wheel now?" He replied in excitement, clenching and unclenching his fists, while nodding like one who won the lottery. "Hmph! You love money a lot, little money grubber," the system said playfully, making Anthony giggle."Of course, I love money. Without money, I won't be able to do anything. Money is life, no doubt," he replied cheerfully.Almost immediately, the golden wheel appeared before him.Anthony didn't wait for the system to instruct him this time, making the system giggle."You seem pretty excited today," she added playfully."Damn! You're a product of technology. Why are you making me feel as if I'm with a mischievous woman? Please stop acting like a human, what if I get too attached to you?" Anthony said serious
Mo Lan’s pale, sweaty face was the first Aryan saw the moment he regained consciousness. A wide smile broke on his face as Mo Lan hugged him crying. “It's so good to finally see your face, the soul mate that lighted the beacon, guiding me out of darkness. Has the rest left the mystic lands?” Aryan whispered, rubbing his back. “Big brother, we have a lot to say to each other, but we only have two minutes left, let's go.” Anthony shouted, making him notice the other two. Anthony quickly carried up Aryan while Mo Lan grabbed Annabelle, quickly racing to the front porch. They met an open space craft, making them surprised. “Hurry up!” Sean shouted, coming out from the vehicle. “Why are you still here?” Aryan whispered in surprise. Anthony and Mo Lan staying back was no surprise due to their bond. But Kaiser and Sean staying back was a mystery. “How can we leave our brothers to weather storms alone? Lynda is leading the rest away. Ryan, Aria, Jasmine and Angel are in the other vehic
“Has Mo Lan come out yet? It has already been a week. We have been asked to leave this place and we only have twelve hours left.” Anthony whispered, watching his watch. All of their luggages and things they consider important which didn't belong exclusively to the mystic lands have been packed up and arranged for take off. However, four people were visibly absent while others were ready to take off. But at least, everyone knew where two of them could be seen. Ryan was rushing his last minute cultivation while trying to condense demi god threshold. While Annabelle was upstairs in her room cultivating as if the urgent messages from the system had no relation to her. “I don't really know what's wrong with Mo Lan. He had disappeared to who knows where ever since last week when Annabelle broke into the demi god realm. Could it be that he got backlash while trying to help her breakthrough?” Sean asked with a frown. “It can't be that. If he was truly wounded, there was no way Annabelle wou
“Why do you keep avoiding my eyes? Look at me! I need you to pay attention if we're to succeed.” Mo Lan snapped impatiently, making Annabelle jump in fright. She had thought that Mo Lan would stalk away after she gave in to her baser instincts and slapped him. But surprisingly, he endured it and told her to get dressed. He had taken her to the mountain, explaining the principles of law formations and stopping at intervals on places with stronger law activities to cultivate and gain deeper understanding on the principles behind their formations and functions. When they got up the mountain, he had taken her on a hands-on combat training class, but she never seemed to fully concentrate, wondering why he was still helping her. “Fine, sit cross legged, let's start dual cultivation and attempt a breakthrough. But before then, I will set a formation around this mountain to prevent your aura and heavenly manifestations from reflecting when you eventually break through.”“Why are you so sur
It was exactly 12 a.m when Mo Lan creeped into Annabelle’s room again and locked the door. He had met Jasmine in the pool while cultivating earlier that evening leading to an unpleasant encounter. He had thought that everyone was still celebrating Ryan and left to cultivate after taking care of Aryan. He had packed the treasure’s milky drops that were collected in the container and replaced it with a new container after stashing away the initial one.Mo Lan had stripped down to his birthday suit and gotten into the pool, only to notice a movement. He teleported to the spot and caught Jasmine trying to crawl away. And all her tearful explanations about how she had been there before him couldn't save her from the tongue lashing he dosed out on her. After such an unpleasant experience, common sense dictates that he takes a bath and sleeps to unwind. But of course, Mo Lan had never been one to follow common sense. He had continued his bone crushing exercises to train, before going on to
The loud cheers he heard downstairs for dinner made him frown. Why were they cheering so much, even if someone broke through, what was the big deal about it? Weren't they breaking through every other day? Literally, since they arrived, there has been someone breaking through every three days or less. So why was this one special? Or has Anthony reached the god realm? That must be it! ‘Oh no, I forgot to tell him the matter about superior god laws. Breaking through in a lower realm ain't good, the space laws will encumber him the moment we leave here.’ Mo Lan muttered and quickly rushed down to the dining room where the commotion was coming from. Everyone was circling Ryan and Angel was jumping up and down. “Ryan, didn't I tell you to…” He began to say angrily, thinking that Ryan disobeyed him and used the treasures to keep forcing a breakthrough to the saint or demi god realm. “Big brother, big brother.” Ryan whispered in a tearful voice and threw himself into Mo Lan's arms, huggin
Mo Lan went down on his knees before Annabelle the moment he came into the cultivation room. She was sitting cross legged, with eyes closed, churning the energy she received to incorporate it to her own body. Soon, the timer went off and the spiritual energy beams from the aura gathering formation receded. She opened her eyes and exhaled stale air filled with impurities. “Anna, come and eat. I made your favorite beef and chicken stew with rice. There is also a jug of immortal fruit juice to refresh your body and release more energy.” He whispered with a smile and knelt before her, setting out her meals. She smiled at him, watching him serve her. “Our Mo Lan now cooks dishes that are more tasty than mine. He's all grown up now.” She whispered, shutting her eyes as she savored the dishes. “Don't tempt me now. You won't like the results.” Mo Lan whispered, his voice deep as he watched her lick her lips. “You're the one misunderstanding my actions. Or do you plan to throw around the
“Ryan, come into the lab once you're done eating. It's time to repair your leg and get you new ones.” Anthony said, making Ryan's chopsticks halt halfway to his mouth. “Are you serious?” He whispered, his heartbeat accelerated at the thought that he could finally regain the use of both feet, instead of drifting around on one. “Of course, will this big brother lie to you? The drafts are ready and I spent all morning getting it ready before I went for the morning exercises. Besides, that treasure Mo Lan spoke about, I went to check it out last night and saw that a milky drop of liquid was forming at a point. So, I placed a collecting container in the space where it was meant to fall into. When I checked this morning, around two drops had dropped into the container. Although it's two drops, the life energy was incredibly thick and has the ability to regenerate body parts. Although I wanted to use it for Aryan, I think yours cannot wait. There are other methods to help Aryan, but thi
“How come I have never seen Annabelle today? She's not even in her room. Has anyone seen her?” Anthony asked, walking into the dining room. He had just returned from the miracle pool where he went for his morning meditation and realized that Annabelle was still nowhere to be seen. “Who exactly do you expect to answer that question? If you don't know where she is, who should?” Mo Lan asked harshly, and walked past him carrying a heavy tray laden with various aromatic dishes. Anthony frowned and turned to him, looking surprised. “Mo Lan, you have been getting more and more sassy nowadays. Now you even talk back to me of all people; your big brother.” “Big brother, my ass. Have you seen how tired and sick she looks? Yet she fucking smiles for everyone. She's exhausted but wouldn't take a break till I offered to make the dishes for today. If you're going to turn her into a slave, working even when she's exhausted, then you shouldn't have made her believe that lie you told her. Y
“Really? How come I never remember calling you mom? The only one I remember is in Seattle waiting for us since we left years ago. I can call you mom though, but that's under special conditions, with you in my arms. Mommy, I want some milk. Is it that kind of mommy?” He asked and bit his lips, enjoying her horrified expression. “Mo Lan, when did you get so rotten and raw? Who the fuck are you? Because the person before me ain't my Mo Lan. Mo. Lan, even if I'm too young to be your mother, you're still my son. You're the son of my heart.” Annabelle whispered, and took a step away from him “Really? Since you want to be my mom so bad, I agree. I also want to know what those step mother and son movies feel like in real life. We should experiment and see what it feels like to love someone you consider your son in a romantic way? Do you want to call me baby too? Mommy, if you're happy with that big dick brother of mine, I will keep my paws off you. But he leaves you lonely, horny, and feeli
