《Ancient Cultivator in Modern World》Chapter 72: Greed
Advertisement
Lily's hand blurred and with a slap, she struck an acupoint behind her friend's head causing the latter to faint. Khan gasped, while the young woman underneath him struggled intensely.
Lily carried her friend and placed her on a chair, her cold look momentarily glanced at Khan before her hands, once again blurred, sending the struggling young woman into unconsciousness.
Khan slowly stood up, he didn't even look at the beauty that laid on the ground for his eyes stared at Lily with a worried expression. The latter noticed his stare and retorted with a frosty look,
"Do you mind explaining to do you want me to assume what happened?"
Khan awkwardly scratched his head before honestly explaining about what exactly transpired.
In the end, the cold and distant look from Lily's expression disappeared and the light that came from her eyes when she stared at the young woman became somewhat gentle that Khan couldn't help but comment at the side.
"Why do I feel like you're like a mother."
"Mhmm?"
"Nothing..."
"..."
"Is she your friend?" Khan glanced at the young woman that laid on the table.
"Yeah, she is, I was planning on introducing you to her, but look at what happened! How can I explain all of these to her, and I even attacked her." Lily sighed, while Khan who listened to her rant spoke up, "If that's the problem then you could just use one of your innate abilities, the Seed of Attachment."
"Haah? What are you saying? The Seed of Attachment makes anyone that I use it into my loyal slave, and I can't just use that to my friend!" Lily retorted.
'So, she knows how to use it but she doesn't understand how to manipulate her innate skill?' Khan sighed and took a stance amidst Lily's perplexed gaze.
"Haaah!" With his will, a faint silhouette of a Nature Dragon materialized in the air before Lily, startling her into a panic.
"Wha-wha-what the...! How could you summon a Nature Dragon?!" She pointed at the dragon and exclaimed, as Khan once again, sighed.
"Did you forget about the effects of the Yin-yang Assimilation Method?"
"Ah," Remembering the contents of the dual-cultivation method, Lily's countenance abruptly flushed, but in the next instance, she exclaimed for indeed, she remembered a passage that mentioned that the duo who cultivated in the method would assimilate each other's bloodline.

In this case, Khan obtained Lily's bloodline while Lily obtained Khan's bloodline. But for now, Lily still doesn't know this fact.
"What are you going to do?" Her expression became somewhat pale as she had a sense of foreboding, 'Could it be that he's going to...'
'But if that happens, Daniela will become his most loyal slave, and in that case...' She hurriedly tried to stop him but was retorted with a reassuring smile that expressed everything that Khan wanted to say.
"Don't worry, just trust me." The faint silhouette of the Nature Dragon condensed into a drop of water, of which, Khan infused on the forehead of the young woman that laid on the table.
The young woman's mouth groaned uncomfortably as Lily stared at her with a worried expression,
"Why do you look so worried when you're the one who sent her unconscious in the first place."
"Guah." Khan blurted out, for he felt a sharp pain that ran through his side. Rubbing his aching waist, a pouting Lily said, "If I didn't do that she would've run and informed everyone fo you assaulting her and your daily school life will be over..."
Khan stared at her speechlessly, especially at her expressions that contrasted her true feelings. His eyes turned incomparably gentle, as he spoke, "I placed a Seed of Attachment inside your friend's soul memories and instructed it to delete a part of her memories and to fill that gap, I placed a fake memory of her sleeping inside the classroom
"So, we only need to carry her back to the classroom and put her back there." Khan stared at the young woman and found that she was actually quite cute, although her beauty wasn't as good as Lily, she still had her strong points, like how a pair of dimples would appear whenever she raised her lips and her plump cheeks looked inviting to touch.
His hand subconsciously poked her cheeks, and it repeatedly bounced upon touch.
"Hey, why are you ogling her." Lily with puffed cheeks complained at the side.
"Nah, I'm just admiring her cuteness," Khan replied with a satisfied smile.
"Are you saying that I'm not cute?"
"How did you arrive at that conclusion?!"

"Hmmph!"
Lily snorted and didn't bother about him anymore as she walked towards the naked young woman whose appearance, now covered in a fiery robe, with her hands, she opened the robe and revealed before her, were several hundreds of scars that dotted her fair skin.
Even her whose mind endure countless gory scenes back at the Continent of Pride couldn't help but feel aghast when she noticed the number of scars that she had, most particularly above her special place where the scars seemed to concentrate.
"This is horrible..." She spoke in a tone filled with complicated emotions.
Khan walked at the side and stared at the same scene. His fists clenched tight, "Judging from the number of wounds she had sustained, especially at her most sensitive part, I can only think of one conclusion," Khan took a deep breath while Lily started to shiver in terror.
Khan sighed and undid the robe that covered the young woman and started to inspect her body amidst Lily's trembling gaze.
Spreading her legs, Khan noticed that the vital feminity that every woman should have was riddled with several internal injuries and her labia was sewn shut.
"No... That is...!" Lily staggered backward, while Khan's expression became somewhat strange.
The scene that was before him could be considered as extremely terrible by today's standards. But for Khan who witnessed countless more atrocities that were far more horrible than this, He couldn't feel anything other than pity.
Khan sighed, "Back then, when she tried to attack my soul, I could feel that she didn't have any killing intent, instead, her feelings contained fear, uncertainty and a determination to succeed towards whatever her goal is."
He embraced the Lily whose figure continuously trembled.
"I can only do this much."
Khan stretched his finger out, and with his will, a burst of intense lifeforce exploded within his body which formed an intangible figure of a Nature Dragon that squirmed in the air.
"Khan, what are you..." Lily's gaze landed on Khan, while the latter only revealed a smile filled with utmost confidence and a hint of unruliness.
"Nature Dragon's Blessing: Magnanimity of Life!" Khan's hand formed a mudra as the Nature Dragon roared towards the skies before exploding into a beam that flew towards the young woman's body.
Under their watchful gazes, the scars that littered the young woman's body visibly healed, eventually, it disappeared entirely and her body exuded the faint fragrance of youth.
"How do you know about the Nature Dragon's Codex?" Lily's eyes filled with shock stared at Khan. For he had just executed a technique that was only accessible for the higher-ups of the Divine Dragon Sect. Even she, the daughter of the Sect Master himself only knew a single spell at the lowest level, yet Khan could use a spell from the chapter of the Nature Dragon's Blessings.
"Do you really wanna know the reason?" Khan revealed a cunning smile, which made Lily somewhat apprehensive to affirm.
But in the end, her curiosity defeated her and said, "Mhmm."
"Well, It's because your father told me to use it when you're severely injured, and he also warned me that I should only use it in times of emergency since it takes quite a huge toll in the body..." Khan's tone became barely audible in the end and his body staggered forwards which prompted Lily to catch him in her arms.
"Khan, are you okay?!" She worriedly exclaimed and infused her Qi towards his body. But she was shocked to find that Khan who was supposed to be injured in a backlash was happily rubbing his face on her chest.
With the mountainous bumps that felt like cotton rubbing on his face, he felt incomparably satisfied, 'Ahhh... I could stay like this forever,' But upon noticing Lily's threatening gaze, he immediately stood tall and his expression became solemn before saying,
"Now that she's healed, I think It's time for her to explain everything..."
Khan slowly moved towards the whose body revealed on its full glory that laid on the table. But little did they know that the secrets that they were about to hear, related to almost every atrocity that happened inside the Continent of Greed.
And they will soon understand, that the convenience that Modern Technology gave to humanity, wasn't without any sacrifices.

This is a labor of love, dedicated to my absolute obsession with the LITRPG genre that has held me in its grasp for over 3 years. There will be dark situations that perhaps only adults should read including: slavery, violence and the results of war. There will be no harems, little profanity, but possibly some triggers for people who don’t like torture, violence, and other dark stuff.
