Returning To The Cultivation World Through A Game Chapter 180

"Hey Anastasia Bella, I didn't expect us to meet here. You look so different." He said with a friendly smile.
Clara didn't show any reaction when he said her name. She casually replied with a flat expression. "Well, I am with Qin Tian now, so I live with them."
She looked at Qin Tian and touched his hand as she spoke.
"Oh!" Leonardus showed a surprised expression.
"I didn't expect you to be in a relationship. But congratulations, I hope your relationship lasts forever."
He spoke in a sincere tone, but Qin Tian felt that there was a hidden meaning in his words.
His words caused Clara who was showing an even expression to smile.
"Thank you!" She answered. "Our love is like heaven and earth inseparable, I believe our relationship will last forever."
"Isn't that right, my dear?" She added while looking at Qin Tian with a gentle and loving smile.
Qin Tian did not answer, but he smiled while touching her waist.
"Alright, since you guys already have a place, I'll go first." Leonardus said as he turned his gaze to Qin Wuxin.
He saluted once more before walking away.
"Well." Qin Wuxin didn't say anything. She then continued on her way.
When they arrived outside the airport, there were already several cars waiting for them.
Each car could only carry two passengers, so they had no choice but to split up there.
Qin Wuxin was with one of her assistants.
Angela was with Shui Yingyue, and Qin Tian was with Clara.
Qin Tian could feel the gazes from Shui Yingyue as he left with Clara.
She might want to be with him, but their current status doesn't allow for that.
It would be strange if Qin Tian was with Shui Yingyue while Clara who was his lover was with Angela.

Shui Yingyue clearly understood that, so Qin Tian did not feel any anger in her gaze.
But Qin Tian planned to accompany her later.
Shui Yingyue had already started to open up, what happened this morning was proof of that.
If he didn't take the initiative to approach her, she might get angry with him.
In the car, Qin Tian saw the scenery along the road they were on.
After exiting the airport, they entered the hilly area surrounding the city.
Around the hills, there are many medieval-style resorts. And there were lots of people relaxing there gazing at the lakes.
"What do you think of Europe?" Clara who sat beside him then asked.
"Well, the ancient sensation on this continent is very thick." "Also, although this continent doesn't have many natural resources, most of the wealth on this planet ends up here."
"Hahaha. Even though East Asia is currently very developed, but in terms of wealth accumulation, they are still far below Europe." "So, are you planning on accumulating wealth here?"
"Wealth is the essence of strength. Since I want to build my own power here, I naturally need wealth too."
All he wanted to do with that wealth was fund the people under his control so they could buy the items that were sold in Sixteen Heaven. That way, they can grow faster.
"Do you have any suggestions?" He then asked.
"There are lots of groups with unlimited wealth here, but if you want unlimited money, the Swiss Bank is the best place to be."
"Swiss bank, huh." Qin Tian narrowed his eyes when he heard the name. "I'm really curious how they managed to survive until now." "Who knows how many times the big countries have asked them to open their data, but until now they are still doing well."

"Yes, they helped hide a lot of illicit money, of course they can stay afloat. They can ignore the voices of those politicians."
Right after Clara spoke, Luna suddenly spoke to Qin Tian. "No, master, you cannot target them. Switzerland is a country that is under our control."
"Ha?"
Qin Tian was immediately shocked when he heard Luna's words.
"What do you mean?" He asked.
"Back then, the Swiss kingdom was founded by us. And until now, they are still under our control."
"Although it is only a small country, but it is one of the best countries. We established that country so that we can also share opinions among the countries of the earth."
"Of course, the most important thing is that we secretly use the country to prevent chaos from happening on earth." "Like poverty for example, with a lot of money that the country has, we secretly help poor countries to improve their economy." "Or build certain projects to prevent disasters." Luna explained.
"Wait!" Qin Tian suddenly thought of something.
"Although Switzerland is a very prosperous country, but they are only a small country in the end. There is no way that their money is enough to help other countries. Unless you guys..."
"That's right, we use money deposited in Swiss bank." Luna answered.
"The reason why Swiss bank don't lend their money is because most of the money they hold is already used by us."
Qin Tian; "..."
"Isn't the money someone else's? What would you do if they took their money?"
"Hahahaha, you don't know, except for business transactions, most of the people who deposit money in Swiss bank never take them back." "Each one of them was so rich they certainly didn't take their money which was safely tucked away there."
"For business transactions, they transact more often between Swiss bank accounts, so we just have to give them fake data."
"Of course, we still have enough money to make it sound as if everything is fine. But if they all took their money, the country might be in chaos, ha-ha-ha."
WTF!
"So I can't get money from them?"
"Don't worry, there are many business groups with great wealth on this continent. As long as you have the power, you won't be short of money."
Inwardly Qin Tian felt sorry for his aunt because she also kept quite a lot of money there.
"What is wrong?" Clara who saw him speechless couldn't help but ask.
"No, but I think Switzerland is a pretty good country, it's a shame if it gets messed up."
"Hmph," Clara snorted with a sneer. "Who doesn't know their true face."
'No, they are actually very good.' Qin Tian replied in his heart. 'They're like Robin Hood.'
...
What kind of imagination have I written? Looks like my head just hit the wall.

Project TheirWorld: Book Two - Tatterskin
**IMPORTANT: Because I am trying to reconcile some of the consistancy issues due to unexpected changes in how I've decided to write the story, this story is to be renamed/reordered. I apologize for any confusion or inconvenience. The Tutorial (completed, but unedited) is now to be concidered as Book One of Tatterskin. Tatterskin will contiune without real inturruption, though "Book Two" is really going to be the rest of the series with multiple volumes. Sorry guys! I've gone and brought the chaos of my real life into the storyverse T-T. ----- Dassah Graydon was just another human woman looking for adventure in her life when she moved to the academic floating continent, the Enclave. But while she wanted to escape her mundane reality, she quickly discovers that her life there – with the exception of all the crazy aliens and the unusual setting – was no different than her life on Earth had been. After spending a couple of months getting used to the place, she finally got the chance to play the popular new VRMMORPG, TheirWorld. As she is drawn deeper and deeper into the game, however, she begins to realize that her in-game life is far more connected to the happenings of reality than she could have imagined. Finding herself in the middle of a conspiracy that threatens her life and the lives of the people around her, Dassah must decide whether she allows herself to be a puppet, or she finds the determination to become the master of her own fate. This is a Project: TheirWorld story, and there is a prequel story, The Tutorial (completed, but unedited) but if I am doing my job, you won't need to have read that to enjoy this one. ____ The story will usually update once a week, sometime on Fridays JST. The updates on Royal Road L will be about 1 chapter behind my main WordPress site found here: Project: TheirWorld. This will change, as the WordPress site will have holiday releases and RRL will not. Thank you for reading, and the support! :) ____

The Archaic Elements
A fantasy world, its own unique power-up system, some mystery aspects to make it look interesting and an MC that should make sense but well messes up, cause plot. Flashy fights. Characters will use their brain, unless it is an arrogant young master that needs to be taught a lesson. The starting is slow and maybe boring. The main MC does not desire great strength or harbor any great ambition. He starts out as a naive, lazy and a boring person. But the story does hold one aspect which will fuel the growth of our MC, which is his boundless curiosity for adventure and his will to explore. The second MC is a reincarnation/transmigration and he has a clear cut aim that he needs to achieve. His past life experiences also becomes a pillar that will help guide the main MC, while his friend also supports him. The writing is slow and steady. I will provide reasonings behind most happenings and keep it a logical story. It's a WIP as I edit the previous chapters even as I release more, so while the content doesn't change, the style and smoothness improve. The current release rate is 3 chapter/week. There is no specific date as I can get sidetracked or forgetful., but I will try to stick to Tues, Thurs and Sunday releases.

Smoking Bandits
With a gaze that was hard to describe, Lark stared at his body in the mirror. Not his body as a human, but his other body. Head of a reptile with rows of sharp teeth, a 180 cm tall body that is full of muscles, covered in scales formed green and black tiger stripes. Clawed hands and feet, with a tail strong enough to crush an adult neck. 'Man. . . can I still be called a human?' In the end, with a deep sigh Lark changed his form back into a human. A moment later, he came out of the room wearing a combat dress, tactical belt with shoulder strap, and jungle boots. While inserting a magazine into an AK-102, Lark muttered. 'Whatever, time to hunt Orcs.' *****
