MMO: Pierce Heaven Til’ It Breaks 535 A Single Lady

Huashan’s city-wide massacre created such a great stir, that even Li Yi was gobsmacked. He specially searched for the videos on the said incident in the forums to watch.

Onscreen, Huashan’s eight hundred men were wiped out before they even made it to the gates. Their measly levels and equipment were no match for the patrolling NPC army, let alone Tyrannic Dynasty.

The eight hundred ran their mouths as they lay on the ground, bringing to play their forte which was conquering their opponent with words.

That was when the unexpected happened. Flames lit up the sky within the city and many of the buildings were destroyed. NPC civilians were left scattering and fleeing for their lives.

The NPC army rushed back to the city to support, giving Huashan’s eight hundred men the opportunity to get up and parade into the city with war cries.

The buildings were destroyed at a fairly quick rate and before Tyrannic Dynasty arrived, the battle was already over.

Huashan’s eight hundred men were playing dead outside Castellan’s residence with at least ten thousand men watching over them. It was rather impossible for them to get up.

During this time, Scumbag Wang was missing in action but judging by the time of the video recording, he must have gone to the Auction House.

Tuning in to another video, Scumbag Wang was riding a black donkey to charge into another major city of Tyrannic Dynasty. However, before he even got close to the gate, he was shot to death by the NPC army. Then, another peculiar scene happened.

The city was blazing in flames, leaving many of the buildings destroyed and NPC civilians fleeing helter-skelter.

The eight major cities under the control of Three Major Guild Alliance shared the same fate. Their buildings suddenly caught fire and quickly spread throughout the city.

Huashan’s eight hundred men were spawn camped, including Scumbag Wang who could not get up at the city gate. The eight recorded videos did not capture the person who was behind this.

Li Yi watched all eight videos and was left bewildered.

The person who masterminded it was absolutely brilliant, managing to strike an attack each time before Defiantly Tyrannical could prepare for it. This person was indeed devious, burning down eight major cities without revealing their identity once.

Could this be the work of a single person? It did not seem so… nor could it be confirmed…

The person wiping out the city in the videos never appeared even once. However, it should be the doing of a Thief or Vagabond class with Stealth skill. Only, a Thief class used Energy instead of mana while the Vagabond class’ Stealth would not hold up for long. How odd. Could Scumbag Wang’s attempt in purchasing that many Mana Potions be a cover-up?

F*ck! If Scumbag Wang has that high an IQ, Huashan would not be coined the gathering of idiots.

The more Li Yi thought about it, the more he felt it was unlikely.

Li Yi forwent sleep to dissect the videos of Huashan’s city-wide massacre. Then, a delicate figure appeared outside his door.

Skin as white as snow, with meek and gentle nature, and dressed in floral pajamas was none other than Fire Ice.

Fire Ice was tossing around in bed because of the little joke made by Little Elf from the Magical Realm. She waited until Jiaojiao was snoring before quietly leaving the bedroom to outside Li Yi’s bedroom door.

She was very tense, a slight rustle would send her running away in fright.

However, she was quickly disappointed as when she finally found the courage the push open the door, she discovered that Li Yi’s door was locked tight…

Fire Ice stood outside the door for more than two hours before retreated back to her room, trembling from the cold.

When Fire Ice pushed open the door to her bedroom to tread in, Li Yi opened his door with a yawn.

Fire Ice froze and with her bloodshot eyes, swiftly entered and shut the door behind her with a bang.

“F*ck! Who’s that?”

Jiaojiao jumped out of bed with her fist held up, ready to fight.

“It’s… It’s me.”

“Oh Ice, you scared me. Let’s go back to sleep…”

Jiaojiao let out a sigh of relief and went back to bed.

Li Yi pressed his ear to eavesdrop for a while before returning to the room after his trip to the toilet.

Click clack click click, clack clack!

Li Yi still was not ready for bed but he was not poring over the Huashan’s city-wide massacre videos. Instead, he opened up a search engine and entered Savage Lil Chili in.

In Li Yi’s memory, Jiaojiao’s username has always been Invincible Jiaojiao. He would not have known it if it were not for Qian’er mentioning her other username, Savage Lil Chili.

Li Yi tapped on the enter key and all information related to Savage Lil Chili appeared on the screen.

Battle of a Heroine against a Pack of Wolves in the Dark of the Night, by Savage Lil Chili.

Emergence of the Public Transportation Molester, by Savage Lil Chili.

A Tragic Day of a Single Lady, by Savage Lil Chili.

The Blue Sky Out There and Imprisoned Lil Ying, by Savage Lil Chili.

…

‘Oh wow, she wrote this many shorts’, murmured Li Yi in admiration. He clicked on the link and was left with his jaw hitting the ground after reading through.

It was about a female protagonist walking alone in the night and encountered a group of thugs and gang-raped… There was also a short about a female protagonist being molested while taking the bus, etc…

They were all erotic stories!… F*ck me!

It was no wonder the pen name, Savage Lil Chili sounded familiar. He has read a few of Jiaojiao’s novels before.

Finally, Li Yi caught on why Jiaojiao went to learn women’s self-defense. It could be inferred from the novels she wrote that in her subconscious mind, the world was an unsafe place and any guy who glanced at her had urges to rape her…

So the women self-defense class was to tackle that phantom molester.

Savage Lil Chili, mm…

Li Yi flipped through a few more novels. He realized that Jiaojiao really has talent in developing plots. She imagined herself to be teaching a student women self-defense when suddenly the female student turned into a man, and…

Reading through Savage Lil Chili’s works, Li Yi was stunned beyond words.

If it were not because he was familiar with Jiaojiao, he would not believe these peculiar shorts were written by her…

“Jiaojiao’s pen name is Savage Lil Chili, what about Qian’er? They’re pen pals, could it be… that Qian’er also…”

Li Yi paused and had a light-bulb moment. He caught an inkling of the implied meaning of pen pals relationship between Jiaojiao and Qian’er.

Li Yi continued his search. If Jiaojiao and Qian’er were pen pals, then there must be a connection between them. Based on his understanding of Qian’er, he should be able to recognize her username if he were to see it.

“Indeed, a woman for all seasons… How could I not have known in the past life?”

It was only at the break of dawn that Li Yi finally caught on to something.

The shorts written by Savage Lil Chili were definitely stimulating and received a lot of attention and comments. However, the majority of commenters was curious about the gender of the author and only a user by the name of Absolute Hotstuff cut right into the article points and provided neutral opinions. From the way Absolute Hotstuff was commenting, Li Yi was totally getting a lesbian vibe.

There was an 80% chance Absolute Hotstuff was Qian’er. She registered a male username to court girls in forums…

As luck as have it, Savage Lil Chili was not an easy target. Absolute Hotstuff was trying to get on her good side yet did not manage to get a single photo off her. Of course, Li Yi would not know whether the two ever had private conversations.

Savage Lil Chili wrote novels, so did Absolute Hotstuff and the latter has a certain characteristic to her novels. The protagonist was always a female, so were the supporting characters. In the world of her shorts, there were no men. Even if there were, they were given scant attention. These shorts were your average lesbian scenes…

Absolute Hotstuff was called a pervert in that circle and Savage Lil Chili’s gender remained that pack of wolves’ hottest topic. There were even speculations that Jiaojiao was a hermaphrodite but no one knew the truth, except Qian’er.

“How daring she is to write such novels!”

Li Yi read on with a dry mouth, not knowing how to react to this.

Just as Li Yi was on tenterhooks, Jiaojiao walked out her bedroom, yawning and making a beeline for the toilet.

Li Yi heard the commotion and his thoughts flashed to a scene in A Tragic Day of a Single Lady where the female protagonist was doing her business when she was threatened by a perv…

Li Yi chuckled and ran out, sneaking in before Jiaojiao could close and lock the door.

Jiaojiao innocently nudged him, “Are you out of your mind? Get out, I need to relieve myself.”

Li Yi put on a vicious look, “Hand over your bra!”

“What? Have you lost your mind? Are you having a fever or something?” Jiaojiao checked Li Yi’s temperature with the back of her hand and pulled back when she was sure his temperature was normal.

“Hand over your bra or I’ll rape you.”

Li Yi was reciting the lines of the bad guy in Jiaojiao’s novel.

Jiaojiao’s sweet lips formed a giant circle.

“What… What… What are you talking about?”

“Hand over your bra, I want to wank. If you don’t hand over your bra, hehehehehe…”

Jiaojiao’s face went red. She buried her face in her hands as she sat on the toilet seat…

“You… You perv! You peeked into my stuff.”

“Who peeked? I didn’t, I openly read them. Humph humph, I really can’t tell, Miss Xie Jiaojiao is a person who…”

“Don’t say it, how embarrassing,” Jiaojiao waved her arms.

“You can write about it yet I can’t talk about it? Why did you write if you feel embarrassed about it?”

“I… I I… I…” Jiaojiao stuttered and could not find the words to rebuke.

Jiaojiao nudged Li Yi again, “Hey, get out. I really can’t relieve myself… with you here.”

Li Yi cupped his chin and sized Jiaojiao up and down. He suddenly realized an embarrassed Jiaojiao was quite adorable.

“Sure, I can get out but I have a question to ask you.”

“Just ask, quick…”

Li Yi stared into Jiaojiao’s eyes, “How did you know Ouyang Qian?”

“She and I? Pen pals.”

“What kind of pen pals? Li Yi followed up with a question.

“That… That kind of pen pals.”

“Novelists?”

“Yeah…”

“What’s her pen name?”

“She… She’s called…”

…
