“B*tch, you p*ssy-selling sl*t, I... Mmph... F*ck...”
The Cat that Sings hurled insults with everything she had. Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut no longer had any concerns and restraints at this point and proceeded to grab Cat and hit her mouth repeatedly.
Brrr!
Two Powered-up Arrows flew straight towards Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut and pierced through her head one after another.
[-94775] [Critical Hit!]
The Dragnet disappeared, and Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut fell to the ground.
The Cat that Sings was stunned for a while before she cackled. “Hahahahaha, that b*tch is finally dead! Wahhahahaah...”
Li Yi walked forward and picked up an item.
War God’s Right Hand, a Purple Quality fist weapon.
“Dark Wing, since you’ve helped me this time, I owe you one.”
The Cat that Sings looked overjoyed as she stepped and stomped all over Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut’s corpse. Even though she knew that she could not actually step on the woman, she still wanted to carry on with the motion just to express her anger.
Li Yi picked up the fist weapon and ran towards the altar. He did not chase after Empyrean South; it did not really matter to him whether he killed Empyrean South or not. However, he would never let Bai Xiaoya, who was currently on the altar, off the hook.
She had tried to victimize him previously. If he had not known her true colors and recorded a video beforehand, that incident alone would have caused him to lose all standing and reputation among the players.
Tyrant Sword King the Fifth must die, and the same must happen to Bai Xiaoya.
The Cat that Sings shouted, “Dark Wing, hold on, don’t f*cking run away! I still have things to tell you.”
Li Yi ignored her. He was already running away at top speed.
Halfway through his sprint, Li Yi transformed into a Lightning Leopard and disappeared with Stealth.
Only two were still alive on the Demon God Altar, Bai Xiaoya and Jiggly.
When Li Yi sneaked forward with Stealth, Jiggly was busy chatting with Bai Xiaoya.
“Baibai, take off your mask. It’s a disgrace to your God-given gifts that a gorgeous person like you wears a mask all day. It’s basically a sin.”
“Brother B, just be straightforward if you want to see my face. What are you going around in circles for?”
Jiggly felt slightly awkward. “Ahem, it’s been more than a year since I’ve seen you. I’ve almost forgotten how you look like.”
Bai Xiaoya was just about to take off her mask when she looked at her surroundings. With a brief shake of her head, she lowered her hand.
“Dark Wing hasn’t died. Brother B, you can always see me whenever you want. However, could you first help me deal with Dark Wing?”
With his hands behind him, Jiggly said, “There’s probably no need for me to act anymore, no? How could he be alive when Empyrean South and Lil Purple are working together to take him out?”
Tch-psh-bish-tst-pst!
While Bai Xiaoya and Jiggly were still chatting, Li Yi found the perfect angle to start charging a Powered-up Arrow.
Brrr!
Two Powered-up Arrows flew forward while being close to the ground. After they pierced through Bai Xiaoya, they did not slow down for even a second before skewering Jiggly completely through too...
[-123145]
[-75432]
Damage values appeared above their heads at almost the same moment. With his dual arrows, Li Yi once again had a successful ambush that killed them in an instant.
“Baibai, it wasn’t that I don’t want to attack. Instead, he was the one that was so afraid of my attacks and resorted to an ambush attack. Ah, your brother was too careless this time.”
Bai Xiaoya ignored him and merely lay quietly on the ground.
Jiggly did not drop anything, but Bai Xiaoya’s flute was dropped when she died. At that moment, it was lying on the ground, shining, and glittering in the light.
Li Yi did not immediately go and pick it up. Instead, he put away his Megasnake Bow and switched it with the Wrath of the Stars. Then, he activated God Mode.
Even though everyone from the Fluttering Snow Alliance was dead, all of their bodies remained on the altar. Li YI took a brief headcount to find that none of them had released their souls to leave the place.
Since none of them left despite being dead, this meant that they had some sort of resurrection item similar to a Light Talisman that would allow them to resurrect themselves on the spot. At least one or two of them would have the items with them, if not all. Otherwise, they would have never behaved this way.
Once again, Li Yi’s guess was accurate.
At that exact moment, Bai Xiaoya was using the Party Channel to create a plan.
“Everyone, don’t move! When he’s here, listen for my orders and resurrect yourselves simultaneously! He won’t be able to activate his Territory at the moment, and if we attack him at the same time, he will definitely die!”
The flute on the ground kept shining, enticing Li Yi to go forward and pick it up.
Thwack! Thwack! Thwack! Thwack!
“Shoot at Random!”
Li Yi drank a bottle of Sacred Hope before shooting hundreds of arrows to his surroundings. He only stopped once he nearly exhausted his mana, finally satisfied with his work.
After Shooting at Random, the altar was filled with flames.
Li Yi had used the Inextinguishable Flames Arrows for his Shoot at Random skill.
The Inextinguishable Flames could burn without any fuel, meaning that even if there was nothing around to aid its combustion, the Inextinguishable Flames would still burn for a very long time.
Now, the corpses of Bai Xiaoya and her people were entirely covered with flames.
Li Yi finally stepped forward leisurely and picked up Bai Xiaoya’s flute.
“The Enchantress’s Victorious Flute. Hm, this thing has some special effects on it, huh? Oho, it even has a +3 Holy attribute.”
As he stood by Bai Xiaoya’s body, Li Yi toyed with the Victorious Flute.
With the Inextinguishable Flames burning around them, Bai Xiaoya and her men dared not even stand up.
There were various types of resurrection items that allowed the players to get up right where they died. However, their effectiveness varied. The best resurrection items would allow the players to rise from where they died with Max HP, while the worst resurrection items would only provide players with 1 HP after the resurrection.
The Fluttering Snow Alliance had prepared for a long time for their Foreignland invasion. The members that went to the Foreignland would each be given a certain number of Light Talismans. However, since resurrection items that allow on-the-spot resurrection were extremely rare and could not necessarily be bought with money, the Advanced-level Light Talismans were very limited. Thus, most of them were equipped with Light Talismans of the lowest grade.
With the Inextinguishable Flames burning, Bai Xiaoya had no way to resurrect herself. Hence, she could only grind her teeth in frustration as she listened to Li Yi’s words.
Jiggly shouted, “My friend, your win is dishonorable if you attacked us with an ambush. Do you dare to face me and have a straightforward fight with me?”
Li Yi asked curiously, “You’re a Thief. How do you plan to carry out this straightforward fight with me? Are you saying that you’re not going to use Stealth when you’re going against me?”
“Ahem, I’m a Thief, and I would definitely use Stealth in battle. However, if you feel that you’re disadvantaged, I could use only one hand to battle with you.”
Li Yi laughed and took out his Return City Stone and rubbed it furiously. Then, he disappeared from their sight.
After he witnessed Li Yi’s departure, Jiggly’s shouts suddenly became louder than before. “Baibai, you’ve seen it too. It’s not that I don’t want to fight him, but it was him that did not dare to have a one-on-one fight with me.”
Brother Simon could no longer hold himself back. “Would you actually die if you stopped fronting for a while?”
The Inextinguishable Flames in the area gradually dissipated. The Light Priest in the party finally stood up and saved the people using a Resurrection Spell.
The Resurrection Spell could only be used on one target at a time. The Light Priest took their time to save the team by resurrecting Bai Xiaoya, Brother Simon, and the others in that order. In the end, only Jiggly has yet to be resurrected.
It was not that the Light Priest was unwilling to save him. Instead, Bai Xiaoya was the one that had stopped the Light Priest from saving him. Her reasoning was simple; the Light Priest would not save Jiggly as he was not a member of the Fluttering Snow Alliance.
“Brother B, there is a simple thing you can do if you want him to save you. You could join the Fluttering Snow Alliance immediately, and I will allow him to resurrect you right away. If you join the Alliance, you’ll become the Vice Guild Master. You’ll even have a much higher ranking than I do. What do you think?”
Jiggly kept his mouth shut, maintaining his silence.
Bai Xiaoya shook her head and sighed. Suddenly, she pointed at the center of the altar, right where Li Yi had stood before he had disappeared.
Following her direction, numerous attacks bombarded the spot.
As Li Yi rolled forward to evade the attacks, his silhouette was exposed to the public eye. However, his reflexes were so quick that he had managed to activate his Rocket Propellant and instantly rushed to the area beneath the altar.
Li Yi’s previous action of rubbing the Return City Stone was just a distraction. At the final second of the Return City Stone’s channeling time, he had used Camouflage and crouched on the ground. He had intended to cause some problems for Bai Xiaoya, but he never expected to be discovered by the woman before he could do anything.
As he ran and changed his position, Li Yi busied himself with some shooting. Soon, Bai Xiaoya was dead by his arrows again. From far away, he noticed that both Dark God Empyrean South and Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut were running towards the altar at full speed.
With only one glance, he knew that The Cat that Sings had failed to guard Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut’s corpse. The latter had managed to resurrect herself.
The people from the Fluttering Snow Alliance finally gathered together. Right at that moment, Li Yi’s Territory Power had been completed exhausted. It was impossible for him to control the situation using his Territory barriers now.
“Dark Wing, you can no longer escape!”
Tyrant Sword King the Fifth and Brother Simon both Charged at him at the same time, trying to slam into Li Yi...
“Goodbye!”
Just before Tyrant Sword King the Fifth and Brother Simon could slam into Li Yi, Li Yi chuckled and bid the group farewell. Then, his body has abruptly disappeared into thin air...
A King’s Order levitated above his head. The advantage of receiving a King’s Order early on and not using it was that he could Teleport himself and leave the scene whenever he wanted.
With a white flash, Li Yi has returned to the Celestial Capital of the Invincible Continent.
That was close...
Li Yi heaved a long sigh.
Tyrant Sword King the Fifth, Brother Simon, Bai Xiaoya and the others were nothing to be feared. However, Dark God Empyrean South and Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut were extremely nasty to deal with. Both of them were Top 10 powerhouses of the God Wars in his past life. Even Li Yi would have not dared to rush into the situation if he did not have so many Resurrection Talisman with him.
After that, Li Yi took out the War God’s Right Hand, the item that was dropped by Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut. After some contemplation, he placed it in his Mailbox and mailed it over to Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut.
Somehow, Li Yi felt that Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut’s kill was not entirely fair. If she had not lost control over her emotion when she captured The Cat that Sings, it was entirely possible that his Powered-up Arrow could miss her entirely.
Li Yi did not need this piece of equipment, especially when his victory was not something that he was proud to spread around. Thus, he did not want to keep it as well.
On the other hand, Li Yi had no regards for his honor when it came to Bai Xiaoya’s dropped equipment. There was no way that he would return the item to her. The first criteria for him to consider returning a person’s equipment was said person’s morality. Obviously, Bai Xiaoya did not even possess a sense of morals.
Immediately, Li Yi sprinted straight to the Auction House and made a list of that he was willing to purchase. Then, he clicked ‘Post’.
‘Willing to buy all sorts of Holy Equipment, regardless of quality! Each will be bought at 100 Gold Coins, and I’ll buy however many you can offer! Without any limits!”
After he had settled this issue, Li Yi used Teleport to turn in quests all around the Continent...
Ding! Ding! Ding!
All of the quests that he had accumulated before this had finally born fruit. Li Yi’s EXP experienced a rapid ascent, and by the time he had turned in all of his quests in the Invincible Continent, he had reached Level 104!
That was just the beginning. Not only had Li Yi done quests in the Invincible Continent, but he had also done quests on all four Continents. Now, it was the season for his harvest.
However, turning in quests on other Continents would no longer be as satisfying as his experience in the Invincible Continent. That was due to the fact that his Senior Administrator’s skill, Teleport, could only be used locally. Once he left the Continent, it would no longer work.
The next location that Li Yi chose to turn in his quests was the Ninth Continent. The Ninth Continent and the Invincible Continent had long formed a secret alliance, and it was much safer for him to turn in quests here than in the Fluttering Snow Continent.
After spending an entire night, Li Yi finally finished turning all of the quests that he completed in the Ninth Continent. As a result, he had risen to Level 107!
Glancing at the Level Rankings, there was no doubt that Li Yi was in the first place. Meanwhile, the famed leveling maniac, Lonely Semi City, was in second place with Level 105.
After that, it was time for him to go to the Fluttering Snow Continent!
