The Annihilator: Killer Of Gods

"Wow, Big Brother, is this really our new home?" Xian asked, his mouth open in amazement as they entered the gates of a majestic mansion.

As soon as Karsha came out of seclusion, he contacted Big Brother Max, who brought a grand carriage to the sect. The carriage was a part of the mansion that Karsha had arranged for Xian's family.

The mansion was situated in Sunlight City's elite district, where homes were built from jade stones and roofed with Mana stones. Each Mana stone had formations within that absorbed heavenly Mana, strengthening the buildings and enhancing cultivation.

As they moved through the streets, Karsha sensed powerful auras emanating from nearly every house they passed. He didn't even need the system to know that most of these people were hidden experts from the Great Families and other powerhouses.

Although he didn't know much, he understood enough to realize that while the Great Families were the city's overlords, there were hidden powers even they wouldn't dare to offend.

"No need to be shocked, Xian. This big brother of yours is very rich. This is just the beginning; once things settle down, I'll take you to my real home. I bet you'll collapse when you see my wealth," Karsha said with a satisfied smile.

He wasn't afraid of anyone knowing about his wealth. Everyone in the carriage was someone he could trust, including Big Brother Max. Max was the type to value loyalty, and since Karsha had helped him countless times, he wouldn't repay kindness with betrayal. As for the four fairy-like ladies in the carriage, betrayal was the last thing on their minds. Lady Li Jing was also someone he trusted deeply, so he wasn't concerned about her loyalty either.

"Big Brother, how exactly rich are you? This mansion cost millions of spirit stones— even a Great Family wouldn't just hand over something like this," Xian said, still in awe of the mansion's magnificence, now their new home.

"Don't compare me to those nobodies. Even if they combined all their wealth, they wouldn't reach half of mine. You'd better get used to living the life of a rich kid, Xian—this brother of yours is going to spoil you rotten," Karsha said, patting Xian on the shoulder.

With a look of amazement, Xian dragged Karsha toward the mansion's main gate, while Big Brother Max followed behind with a range of expressions on his face. But most of all, he seemed grateful for being in Xian's good graces.

"Who is he, really?" Lady Li Jing asked, gazing at Karsha as he and Xian entered the mansion's grand hall.

"Honestly, I don't know. When I asked him, he only half-told the truth. But from what I've seen, it's probably best not to dwell on it too much. I feel his background is something beyond our understanding, even if he were to tell us," Yi Ran replied, watching the man to whom she had given her heart.

"I guess you're right. He certainly is a mysterious fellow," Lady Li Jing agreed. They lingered outside for a moment before deciding to go in.

The interior of the mansion was unlike anything they had ever seen. The decorations were top-notch, supported by formations that enhanced every detail. While these formations were relatively weak for someone like Karsha, they were still powerful enough to withstand attacks from even a Sage.

Yet, Karsha didn't seem disappointed. After all, this place was only a temporary residence. He already planned to relocate those close to him to the island, a place the system described as hidden—one that no one could find without Karsha granting them access.

The island was the perfect place to keep those he cherished safe. He wouldn't want anyone in his life to be caught up in his troubles. Once the island's development reached a certain stage, he would build a grand mansion there and start relocating his family.

"This place is huge!" Li Nan exclaimed, jumping onto a bed large enough to fit six people.

"This is your room, little Nan," Karsha said, lifting her off the bed and playfully tossing her back onto it. "From now on, this whole room is yours."

Li Nan looked over at her mother, waiting for some objection, but seeing her mother smiling, she leapt forward and hugged Karsha. "Thank you, Big Brother!"

"All right, later you can go shopping with Mommy," Karsha added, as they continued their tour through the mansion's rooms, kitchen, training area, and finally, the pool.

"That's about everything," Big Brother Max said, handing a golden token to Karsha. "The amount has been deposited on it." Karsha nodded and accepted the token.

"This card holds enough to get you started. Buy whatever you need. I know it can't replace what you've lost, but I hope it brings a little happiness into your life," Karsha said, passing the golden token to Lady Li Jing, who looked like she was on the verge of tears.

Before he could say more, tears began streaming down her face. *Why do I keep finding myself in situations like this?* Karsha thought, cursing his luck and feeling helpless. Fortunately, Yi Ran and the others stepped in to offer some guidance.

"It's all right, there's no need to cry," Yi Ran said, encouraging Karsha to hug her. He complied, wrapping his arms around Lady Li Jing and gently rubbing her back. "Xian and your other children are here, and so am I. You don't have to worry about anything. We're all here for you," Karsha added reassuringly.

After a while, Lady Li Jing stopped crying, giving Karsha the chance to end the hug. However, unfortunately for him, when he pulled back, his golden-red eyes drifted toward her chest. Although he had already noticed how large her breasts were, seeing them up close gave him a different impression.

'Damn it, Karsha, she just lost her husband. No need to be aggressive right now,' he thought, forcing himself to shake off the sudden distraction. But his reaction didn't go unnoticed by everyone.

Lady Li Jing noticed his momentary hesitation but didn't react. It happened so quickly that no one else picked up on it.

Karsha had a bet with Li Fei, but he wasn't going to follow through on it. Lady Li Jing was different—she was Xian's mother. He wouldn't pursue his own brother's mother, especially not while she was still in mourning… or maybe.

"Let's head inside." Soon, they were all sitting in the house. Big Brother Max went over some policies and rules that had to be followed when living in a certain part of the city. None of the rules were an issue for someone like Lady Li Jing.

The policies were simply in place to ensure that homeowners didn't encounter any problems while living there. After a while, Big Brother Max left, bearing mind-blowing gifts.

With three days left before they had to leave, Karsha and the others decided to spend the night. Naturally, they agreed to keep things quiet, so the four ladies stayed in separate rooms, while Karsha stayed in another room.

At dawn the next day, Karsha woke up and went for a swim. He really missed his days back on Earth, so when he saw a pool that had been enhanced with formations and arrays, he couldn't resist taking a dip.

He woke up around 4 a.m. and decided to go for a swim. However, a few minutes in, his peaceful swim was interrupted by Lady Li Jing's arrival.

"You couldn't sleep either, huh?" Karsha said. He hadn't really slept at all, having spent the entire night chatting with Nedin inside his Soul Sea.

"Not really. I just woke up early to practice," Lady Li Jing replied, taking a seat a few steps from the pool with a flute in her hands. Karsha's eyes lit up when he saw it.

"Lady Li Jing, you play the flute?" he asked.

"I play a little," she replied politely. Karsha jumped out of the pool and immediately approached her.

"Then I'll trouble you for a while. I hope you don't mind teaching me a thing or two—I'm a quick learner," Karsha said eagerly.

"I don't mind. After all, you've done more for me and my family than I could ever repay in this life or the next," Lady Li Jing said, tears threatening to spill from her eyes.

Karsha, not wanting to go through another emotional moment, simply hugged her. "You don't owe me anything, Lady Li Jing. We're family now, and this is what family is all about," he comforted her.

"How about you join me for a swim?" he offered, hoping to ease the tension. His dragon was becoming restless, and he realized it would be incredibly embarrassing if Lady Li Jing noticed.

Lady Li Jing's body stiffened slightly. "I don't know how to swim," she replied in a quiet tone. Continue reading on My Virtual Library Empire

Karsha felt a bad premonition, but before he could find a way out, Lady Li Jing spoke up again. "Since I'll be teaching you how to play the flute, why don't you teach me how to swim?"

Karsha realized he had fallen into yet another inescapable trap. Though they were both fully clothed, his weakness for well-endowed women started making his dragon rise. If Lady Li Jing got into the water and became wet, Karsha knew he wouldn't be able to hold back for long.

"We can start once I get back from the expedition," he offered, trying to find an escape.

"Lady Yi Ran mentioned that this year's Blood Expedition will be different, so once you leave, it could take a whole month or more before you return. That would mean an entire month of doing nothing. So teach me something now," she replied, unexpectedly playing the pity card.

'Damn my luck with women,' Karsha cursed inwardly, but with no other option, he nodded—and thus began his self-imposed torment.
