"Little Piglet deleted his account …"
Warsky swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said, "Is he crazy?
He … he deleted his Divine Equipment like the Heaven Suppressing Chain, Giant Spirit Sword and Dragon Subduing Armor. How much money does that cost?
Damn it, does this grandson really not care about it? "
Candlelight Shadow's eyes darkened before he snorted, "Bastard, I can't believe he took all the blame himself. But at least he's a man. Little Piglet deserves respect!"
Blue Sky Scar faced the Dark Mercenaries players in front of him and growled, "Little Piglet might've deleted his account, but we can't let these accomplices go! Kill them all! Wipe these scum of the China server off the face of the Outlands!"
… …
Whoosh!
There was a gust of wind, and I abruptly appeared between Candle Dragon, Warsky Alliance, and Dark Mercenaries. Facing Candle Dragon, I channeled my True Qi and transformed into the Milky Way. The Xuan-Yuan Sword glowed with the prelude of [Xuan-Yuan Slash] as I said, "Enough!
Haven't there been enough players dying in this place?
These Dark Mercenaries are China players no matter what. Anyone who wants to touch them will have to do it over my dead body! "
Blue Sky Scar gulped. "Lu Chen, you're such a busybody!"
Li Chengfeng and Gui Guzi jumped off the dragon's back and stood on either side of me. They pointed their Ghost Blade Halberd and Green Peak Halberd at the front. "What, are you going to challenge Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls?
We don't mind killing you. Worse comes to worst, we'll call our allies like Blazing Hot Lips, Purple Lily and Peach Garden over and fight you for a week at the Outlands! "
Candlelight Shadow said darkly, "Forget it. There's no point in continuing this war."
Blue Sky Scar said urgently, "Are we going to let the tens of thousands of our brothers die just like that?"
"Cut the crap!" Candlelight Shadow said angrily.
… …
It was at this moment a group of elite cavalry rode toward us from the plains. There were around 5000 of them, and every one of them had the emblem of Soul Battle Robes on their shoulder. The beautiful female rider at the very front dismounted from her horse. It was none other than Song of Cloud and Water. She entered the encirclement and stared at Song of Ice and Fire, God Bone, Ringwraith, and the others. "Alright, it's about time you returned, isn't it?"
Song of Ice and Fire nodded. "Yes, we'll be right back!"
The next moment, the Dark Mercenary Emblem on Song of Ice and Fire, Ringwraith, and God Bone's shoulders vanished in the blink of an eye. A few seconds later, they were all replaced with Soul Battle Robes' emblem. Not only that, a lot of Dark Mercenary Slash Cavalry players had also switched to Soul Battle Robes' emblem. Less than five minutes later, all of Little Piglet's former subordinates who were surrounded by Candle Dragon and Warsky Alliance had become Soul Battle Robes' members.
A trace of astonishment flitted across Candlelight Shadow's eyes. He cleared his throat and walked up to Song of Cloud and Water. "Ahem, what's going on, Sister Song of Cloud and Water?
Why did you take the opportunity to recruit these elite Beheading Cavalry from the Dark Mercenaries? "
Song of Cloud and Water blinked before answering without mincing words, "It's nothing. Soul Battle Robes helped Little Piglet fight a couple of battles for a while, and in return, he gifted us over 100k elite Deathstrike Cavalry. Heehee, it's a good deal, isn't it!?"
Candlelight Shadow: "..."
Warsky gritted his teeth and said, "Fuck, I see. No wonder Little Piglet is Song of Ice and Fire's follower. Fuck, I should've thought of him a long time ago. He's willing to do anything for revenge, so what's wrong with making a deal?"
Li Chengfeng chuckled. "The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. How interesting!"
I hugged the Xuanyuan Sword and said, "Little Piglet's fulfill his promise. Let's destroy Mad Purgatory Dragon and make Lu Chao suffer a crushing defeat. Good …"
Speechless, Candlelight Shadow pulled out his sword and growled, "Candle Dragon, retreat! We'll return to Candle Dragon City and continue our leveling plan!"
Warsky nodded in agreement. "Let's retreat as well. Motherfucker, I don't know what we've been busy with today …"
… …
I sighed as I stared at the countless corpses on the ground. Little Piglet and Shangguan Wan 'er had disappeared just like that. What a shame. Plus, Little Piglet had deleted his account with the Heaven Suppressing Chain and a full set of Inferior Divine Equipment. His equipment was worth at least 300 million RMB, but this was the only way he could truly be free. Otherwise, how would he explain himself to the Northern Alliance's shabby castle?
"What are we going to do next?" He Yi asked with a smile.
I thought for a moment before replying, "Let's find a high-level map and grind it. It'll be best if we can find a boss to kill. I'll have Yamete arrange for players to collect God Crystals at low prices in every city. Eve, Chengfeng, Little Gui, Beiming Xin, and the rest of you must become gods even if it means paying a few hundred million. As you can see, God-rank players have a huge advantage."
"Mn."
Li Chengfeng nodded. "I'm going to PvP with Little Gui later. We'll drop a level and grind again. Let's see if we're lucky enough to ascend to the heavens. We can't afford that kind of money, so we can only rely on 24K Pure D Silk …"
Me: "..."
… …
I took the opportunity to form an alliance with Soul Battle Robes. Song of Ice and Fire didn't have a good impression of me at first, but my insistence on siding with the Dark Mercenaries had earned them a whole new level of respect. At the very least, I wouldn't have to worry about Candle Dragon and Warsky Alliance's revenge anymore. As for Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls, it would be a great boost to its own strength. It wouldn't be enough to fight against Candle Dragon and Warsky Alliance with just one or two super guilds alone.
I spent almost the entire day in the Fire Rock Caves under Dragonbone Mountain Range. I led He Yi, Li Chengfeng, Gui Guzi, Du Thirteen, Lian Xin, Beiming Xue and the others to grind mobs and bosses, and all of them died by my hands. My 139 Luck was so awesome that it dropped 7 100-grade Divine Crystals. Everyone was incredibly envious.
Yamete and Xu Yang ran around and collected more than 40 100-grade God Crystals in one day. Even though they were sold for 200k each, they were still incredibly popular. Right now, all the big guilds in the China server were doing their best to collect God Crystals so that they could ascend to the heavens. Most of them had dropped to Level 254, then leveled up to Level 255 before attempting to ascend to the heavens. As a result, the Level 254 and 255 players on the Level Ranking kept bouncing up and down.
… …
Chiang!
Lin Yixin sheathed her Windcutter Sword and said, "It's about time. I got 14 God Crystals today, so I'll leave them with Sister Eve for now. We'll continue tomorrow and help her ascend to the heavens!"
I nodded. "Mn. It's getting late. Should we log out?"
"Okay!"
After the girls logged out of the tavern, I flew to the Violet Empire and entered Xinran's room. When I stopped next to the window, I saw Xinran sitting on the edge of the bed and smiling at me. "Big bro, why aren't you coming in?"
I floated to the ground and said, "Xinran, summon the system elf and log out to eat. Your body won't be able to take it otherwise."
"Mn, okay …"
I logged out of the game after Xinran's figure slowly disappeared from view.
… …
I took off my helmet and checked the time. It was 8 pm, so it was time to eat.
Everyone gathered in Xinran's room after I exited the room. He Yi and Lin Yixin were there as well.
Xinran was sitting in a wheelchair, but she grabbed my arm and said, "Big bro, I want to walk by myself …"
"Can you?" I asked.
She smiled. "I feel like my legs have regained some strength. Let me try!"
"Mn."
I held her arm while He Yi supported me from the other side. Xinran's snow-white feet landed on the carpet and she carefully stood up like a baby learning how to walk. Her legs were trembling slightly. She really was too weak for her own good.
Xinran let out a groan and collapsed into my arms after taking less than three steps. I said, "It looks like it's still not enough. But if you try it every day, you should be able to walk by yourself very soon …"
Xinran nodded. "Mn. It would be great if we could fly like we do in another world …"
The corner of my mouth twitched. "That's impossible. We're not Iron Man!"
He Yi: "..."
… …
Xu Ning and a couple of Eternal Moon China branch employees were already waiting for us outside the door. He looked at us and asked, "Why did you log out so late at night?"
I nodded. "Yeah, I was busy with the Nine-promotion Ascension, and I was helping out too. That's why I logged out late."
Xu Ning smiled. "It's fine. Let's go. The food is ready. Xinran doesn't need to eat porridge today, I added some bread and other grains."
"Okay …"
Beside me, Xinran held my hand and said, "Big bro, I want to eat meat … You and Sister Lin Yixin look like you're enjoying yourself …"
Xu Ning laughed and bent down. He said to Xinran, "There's no need to rush, Miss Xinran. Your stomach will adapt to the food in a week at most, and you'll be able to eat meat then. Your big bro is very rich, so eating meat every day won't be a problem …"
Xinran looked at me excitedly. "Can I, big bro?"
I was speechless. "Sure …"
… …
It was 9 am by the time we finished eating. We didn't want to sleep, but Xinran looked a bit tired.
Lin Yixin looked at me like she wanted to tell me something. She said, "Sister Eve will be keeping you company tonight …"
I said, "Mn, this is … the last night. Starting tomorrow, I won't be sleeping with Xinran anymore."
Xinran's eyes widened. "Why not, big bro?
Does big bro not like Xinran anymore? "
"Er …"
I bent down and held Xinran's hand. I said to her, "Because I'm Xinran's big bro, and Xinran is my little sister. Xinran has grown up, and your big bro's job is to protect you. Sooner or later, Xinran will find a boy who loves her deeply. Then, we'll fall in love and get married. Big bro will protect Xinran silently, but he can't possess Xinran. Do you understand?"
Xinran blinked her big eyes. "I don't really understand, but … if Xinran asks big bro to keep me company, big bro will leave Xinran, right?"
I was startled. "Well … not really. Xinran will understand sooner or later anyway …"
Xinran: "..."
I stood up and said to Lin Yixin behind me, "When we get to 17K, buy a few female romance novels for Xinran. I really can't teach her these things …"
Lin Yixin burst into laughter. "Alright …"
