MMO: Pierce Heaven Til’ It Breaks 449 Worse than a Beas

Jiaojiao was sucking her finger while deep in slumber as Fire Ice’s head was buried deep within her pillow. It was not clear whether she was asleep or awake… 

Li Yi was in a daze. He pinched himself a few times to ascertain it was not a dream before retrieving his hand.

Fire Ice moved slightly and a weak breathing noise could be heard.

She seemed to be fast asleep…

Li Yi let out a long sigh of relief. His racing heart finally calmed down.

Strange. How did Fire Ice end up sleeping here? Could it be that Jiaojiao dared not sleep here alone and called her over?

Li Yi was puzzled and was about to get down from bed when Fire Ice suddenly stretched herself from the duvet.

Li Yi lowered his voice and whispered, “Psst, psst, Ice, are you awake?”

Fire Ice’s breathing became heavy but she did not answer.

Li Yi was left with no words to say. He jumped out of the covers and ran out of the bedroom.

Five minutes later, Fire Ice slowly poked her head out of the covers with her cheeks flushed red. She idly stared at the bedroom door before covering her face with her hands.

She was far from being asleep. Truth be told, she was awake the moment Li Yi stepped in the bedroom door.

Li Yi washed his face, washed his face, washed his face, put on some clothes, and went out the door, for a run…

When Li Yi returned from his jog, Jiaojiao had already prepared a meal.

“I was afraid of sleeping alone last night so I called Ice over. Hehe, since someone did not touch me last night so I had a good night’s sleep.”

During the meal, Jiaojiao proudly spoke, oblivious to the fact that mindless words may cause awkwardness. Li Yi and Fire Ice both lowered their heads in concealment of their embarrassment.

…

Li Yi went online and was met with a ringing of his mail notification. He opened it up and found 389 voice messages, all from Autumn Love.

Black Autumn has been messaging him all day since his absence from yesterday morning.

The first message was her bargaining. She wanted to defect from her country and would pay the handling fees but not protection fees though.

The second message upped the bargain, Black Autumn added that she would pay protection fees at 300 Gold Coins per month.

The third message was Black Autumn increasing the protection fees to 301 Gold Coins per month…

In the fourth message, Black Autumn added it to 350 Gold Coins per month…

In the fifth message, …

She upped the ante as she went from morning to night. Li Yi immediately erased the messages in between the read the last message. Black Autumn had upped the protection fee to 50,000 Gold Coins a month and added a crushed emoji at the end of the message.

Li Yi promptly replied, “No less than 100,000 Gold Coins a month.”

Autumn Love was quick to respond, “Bro, you’re my real bro. You’re finally online, 5555…”

This time, she did not opt to send a mail but rather chose to send a private voice message.

Only when both parties were in close proximity that the private voice message could be activated. If the distance between them were too far, then mail was the only option for communication. This was one of the settings of King of Pantheon.

Li Yi was dumbfounded, “You came here after betraying your country?”

Autumn Love answered, “Yeah, I came yesterday. I’m taking a stroll around Celestial Capital.”

The negotiations have not been settled yet she was in a rush to defect. Just what sort of situation was Black Autumn in in the Western Continent?

Li Yi was more curious than ever about the state Autumn Love was in now.

Autumn Love said, “I can do 100,000 Gold Coins a month but only for half a year. I also want to join Little Drunk Cat for extra protection.”

Li Yi did not answer. Instead, he browsed the official web of the Western Continent to collect intel on anything related to Autumn Love.

He was quite stunned reading all about it. All posts about Autumn Love were about one thing and that was blasting Black Autumn.

Opening a betting house, borrowing money, buying and reselling for profit, inflating prices on items, sensationalizing equipment, cheating people, picking fights for no reason, all these accusations were placed on Autumn Love.

Of course, what the Western Continent players found the hardest to tolerate was not these but the fact that Autumn Love was a closed-beta player!

In this sort of game, players were more prone to have deep hatred against injustice. Autumn Love has inflated item prices through her closed-beta experience and with the word out, she was in a nasty position.

So from morning to night, Autumn Love had been hunted down, and even her friends cast her aside. This desertion left her isolated.

Autumn Love’s betting business brought her around 100,000 – 300,000 Gold Coins in daily revenue but the moment her identity as a closed beta player was revealed, no one gambled in her house anymore. With her income taking a plunge and she being hunted every day, she could no longer remain in the Western Continent.

Autumn Love and Big Boy had a great relationship so she originally planned to flee to the Southern Continent. It was a shame though, Big Boy who was also a closed beta player, was in a tight spot himself, so he was not in the position to help.

Li Yi read the forum posts and felt a sense of contentment.

This Black Autumn had been swindling for five to six years in the past life and finally, she received her comeuppance in this life.

Li Yi mulled it over and sent a message to Autumn Love, “You’ll need to pay the protection fees for a full year and Little Drunk Cat’s at full capacity now. If you want to join my guild, you can go to another.”

“Another?”

“Drunken World Guild also belongs to me.”

“What guild is this? I’ve never heard of it…”

Drunken World has been established by Li Yi after the success of Throne-claiming. The Guild Master was Little Elf from the Magical Realm. He was currently holding Vice Guild Master position in both Little Drunk Cat and Drunken World.

Compared to the world-renowned Little Drunk Cat, Drunken World had a low profile. This guild was powerful. It was not choosy with members and did not have any conditions upon participation. One could join and quit the guild at will, with fewer restrictions than Little Drunk Cat. 

Li Yi was firm. “You can only join Drunken World, don’t even think about Little Drunk Cat.”

“Why?” Autumn Love found it hard to accept.

“If you want to join Little Drunk Cat, you need to fulfill just one condition and that’s — character.”

Autumn Love could not say anything to that.

“At most, eight months of protection….”

“Not a penny less!”

Before Autumn Love could finish, Li Yi teleported to where she was and wagged his finger at her.

Autumn jumped out of fright and took a few steps back.

“How did you find me?”

“You’re a closed-beta player yet you don’t know?”

“If I knew, I wouldn’t be asking you,” Autumn Love spitefully answered.

Li Yi chuckled, “Just one word, do you agree or not? If you don’t, I’m gonna blacklist you.”

Autumn Love bit her lip as she stared back at Li Yi for a long moment before forcefully nodding.

Li Yi took Autumn Love under Drunken World and even gave her a position as an assistant to Little Elf from the Magical Realm.

“There’re no rules but you must remember one thing. Never execute anything in my name.”

Li Yi knew of Black Autumn’s character and gave her a warning.

“Humph humph…” Apart from snorting, she has nothing to say.

“Payment up front, pay up.”

Li Yi casually extended his hand out to Autumn Love.

“Money grubber! All you think about is money!”

Autumn Love painfully parted with her 1.8 million Gold Coins and traded it to Li Yi.

Autumn Love was feeling the pinch. “From now on, I’m yours. If I’m being killed, you must protect me or it’s a breach of contract.”

Li Yi stored Autumn Love’s money and felt refreshed.

Autumn Love pointed at her feet, “Right, I wish to purchase this piece of land, can you help me?”

Li Yi did not even blink as he gave a number, “Ten million.”

“F*ck, why don’t you just rob a bank? I just asked the real estate agent and this land’s three million at most. You’re shadier than the System. No wonder you’re called Dark Wing, Black Wing!”

Autumn Love left in a huff.

Li Yi teleported to be first to reach the real estate agent NPC and adjusted the Celestial Capital’s price under his Military Advisor’s authority.

Li Yi then left and five minutes later, Autumn Love arrived to see the real estate agent NPC, only to faint from looking at the price.

It was three million earlier. Now, a zero was added and it was now thirty million!

Black Autumn was left aghast, and contacted Li Yi, “Brother Dark Wing, my brother…”

Li Yi had reached Black Rock Mountain by then and rode Black-feathered Golden Eagle to dive down into Black Dragon King Ferrian’s lair.

It has been more than a month but Black Dragon Princess had yet to respawn, leaving Li Yi in a lurch. He strolled around Black Rock Mountain every day just to see if Black Dragon Princess would spawn.

He seemed to be in luck today. He had just squeezed 1.8 million from Black Autumn and the trip to Ferrian’s lair landed him with a pleasant surprise.

Black Dragon Princess was crouching on the ground. It has respawned.

Black Dragon King Ferrian was nowhere to be found and only one Black Dragon, Black Dragon Princess was there.

Li Yi was overjoyed as he drew his bow to shoot.

Szh szh—

Pft! Pft!

[-5343]

[-5733]

Li Yi’s ATK may be high but Black Dragon Princess’s DEF was high as well. Two arrows in and only 10,000 HP was taken off.

“Roar—”

“Mortal, how dare you invade my territory!”

Black Dragon Princess was enraged as it opened its mouth to spew hot Dragon’s Breath on Li Yi.

Li Yi controlled his mount to take flight, evading the dragon’s breath as he launched a series of attack at Black Dragon Princess.

He could kite the Black Dragon sibling duo all the way to Wind Capital without a flying mount back then and now with a flying mount, he was unstoppable.

“Mortal, watch where you are. You can’t withstand the wrath of an angered Black Dragon!”

Onyxia spoke human language as it pursued Li Yi.
