Jiaojiao returned to the continent and issued a King's Order. Qian'er decided to return as well while Li Yi remained where he was. He squatted in a corner of the altar and hid away with Camouflage.
The token above his head was spinning around and around. This token, which was visible to only him, would be present for a long period of time. Currently, Li Yi's eyes were focused on the front of the altar.
In his past life, a party from the Southern Continent killed the weakened Seventh Demon God at the release of Demonic Invasion expansion. This incident stirred a commotion in every server, triggering debates guessing which party did it. As no one came forward, it remained a mystery.
Li Yi was curious himself, hence why he was still here. He hid in an obscure corner and patiently waited for the person to come forth the altar.
Although there were many changes between his past and present life, certainly there would not be much of a difference in this matter, right?
Checking the time, Li Yi narrowed his eyes.
The Seventh Demon God's first kill was achieved on the same day as the release of this edition. Looking at the time, the mysterious party should be here at any moment.
Could it be Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut?
Li Yi was filled with expectations.
"Lil Yi'zi, why aren't you back yet?"
Jiaojiao ran out of patience and sent him a message.
"Don't wait up for me, go do your quests. Accept all the new quests. If you're lucky, you'll be able to grab an item or two with Holy attributes."
"Oh, okay."
Now that Jiaojiao and Qian'er were out on quests, Li Yi patiently waited at the Seventh Demon God Altar. About half an hour later, three players showed up at the pathway.
Here they were!
Lifted in spirit, Li Yi navigated his gaze over.
Out of the three players, two players were masked, covered in black tight clothes, and holding a dagger. They were obviously the Thief class. The other person walking in the back was wearing a black long robe. The person, holding a stylish Crimson Tauren Staff, had his face concealed as well so his face was not revealed.
Li Yi ignored the two Thieves in the front after he caught sight of the Dark Priest holding a Crimson Tauren Staff.
So it was him...
Although he did not have a look at his face, Li Yi recognized him from the Crimson Tauren Staff.
One of the top ten god-tier rankings, a worthy God-tiered expert, Dark God Empyrean South.
Didn't Empyrean South join a year later? Was the information circulating on the web fake?
Feeling ripples of excitement, Li Yi's grip on Megasnake Bow tightened as he watched Empyrean South make his way to the Demon God Altar.
In his past life, Li Yi did not have any contact with Empyrean South. The extent of his knowledge on this person was his skillful abilities. Apparently, this person had a rather peculiar character, leading to him having few friends. The things he did in the game proved this point.
For example, he would, for no reason, attempt a city-wide massacre. Another example, he would, for no reason, camp by a dungeon entrance, forbidding entry. Another example, he would toss his costly equipment all over town, laughing out loud at the sight of players going crazy in a snatching spree.
This legendary God-tiered expert who left people guessing has had many players in his past life trying to befriend him but each of them failed in the attempt. Try as they might, they had nothing but bitterness for this person in the end, of which they poured into the forums.
That's right, this Crimson Dark Priest Staff was possessed solely by Empyrean South. He was Empyrean South!
Li Yi examined once more and finally determined that this Dark Priest was the legendary Dark God Empyrean South.
Li Yi was alarmed the moment Empyrean South and his party walked up to the Demon God Altar.
The female Thief who led in the front spoke, "F*ck, how did that motherf*cker Dark Wing make a move this fast?"
The bitter tone coming from the female Thief sounded familiar to Li Yi. A quick collection of his thoughts left him dumbstruck.
Is... Isn't she the Cat That Sings?"
The male Thief spoke too, "Cat, watch your manners."
"Manners, your monkey boy's ass!"
Li Yi could tell; the male Thief was Fake Fengxi...
Shocked! Shocked!
The Cat That Sings and Jiggly (Fake Fengxi) were friends? Could it be that they were the people who killed the Seventh Demon God in his past life?
Suddenly, Empyrean South said, "You'll die soon if you keep talking like that."
Li Yi took a huge gulp. This guy was a wonder...
Jiggly was annoyed, "South, what do you mean?"
"Nothing, I'm just giving you a piece of advice but if you really die early, don't blame me."
The Cat That Sings ferociously gave Empyrean South the middle finger, "Shut your b*tchy trap, f*ck!"
Corpses were not left behind after the death of demons. With the Seventh Demon God dead, the altar was empty.
Empyrean South's party did not stay for long. They passed through the altar and went deeper into Foreignland.
As his curiosity deepened, Li Yi's eyes fixated on their receding figures.
The God of Massacre with a Thousand Faces, Jiggly and Dark God Empyrean South were friends in his past life? How did... these two irrelevant characters get involved with one another?
Just as Li Yi was prepared to leave, another group of players showed up in the pathway.
The leading player adorned in silver armor and filled with a vigorous spirit was Fluttering Snow Continent's Queen, Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut. Behind her were Bai Xiaoya, Brother Simon, and Tyrant Sword King the Fifth. With a total of eleven members, all Fluttering Snow Alliance's key players were assembled.
Even Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut was here. If Li Yi had not changed this event in the present, how would the scenario turn out? A face-off between Empyrean South and Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut?
Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut's next words caused Li Yi's heart to skip a beat.
"Dark Wing's good. Be careful, everyone. I have a feeling he's near."
Ch!
Bai Xiaoya coldly snorted as her gaze trailed around, seemingly searching for traces of Li Yi.
Li Yi unconsciously lowered his body. Camouflage mode was not actual invisibility. His body may have disappeared, but the silhouette of his body remained. If it were not for the darker tones of Foreignland, he would not be crouching below the altar.
Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut sighed, "It's a pity he stole the Seventh Demon God before us."
Bai Xiaoya smirked, "Lil Purple, don't worry, he won't be proud for long."
Tyrant Sword King the Fifth stepped forward and heartily laughed, "Bai Bai, what did you come up with?"
"Hehe, a secret."
Hearing this, Li Yi swayed his body to transform into a Lightning Leopard before disappearing with Stealth. He then leaped up and ran through the altar towards the direction of Empyrean South's party.
If it were not for Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut, Li Yi would have returned to the continent. He had changed his mind now. He had not gotten over the previous headhunt incident so of course, he was going to seize the great opportunity presented before him.
When Li Yi found Empyrean South, they had just slaughtered a Blue Quality Giant Green-horned Demon and were picking up dropped equipment.
"Roar—"
Letting out a howl, Li Yi swiftly swarmed ahead and gave The Cat That Sings a good scratch in the butt before turning back to sprint away. He knew the vicious girl has quite a temper on her. As long as she was provoked, she would surely be on hot pursuit.
Foreignland's map was dark and obscure so Li Yi's agile movements of scratching and fleeing were taken as a dark figure on the run by The Cat That Sings. Infuriated, she ran her mouth and ran as fast as her legs could carry her.
Empyrean South and Jiggly were stunned for a moment but chose to pick up their spoils before catching up.
Li Yi dashed at full speed and thanks to his newly equipped Demon God Breastplate, the special effect of 10 levels increase over the Beast Soul's Possession's Level 20 cap, his skill has reached Level 30. Not only were all his attributes boosted, but the time limit in Transformed State had also more than doubled.
When Li Yi made it to the Demon God Altar, he jumped and tumbled to the ground, initiating Camouflage to hide into an obscure corner.
Next was showtime!
Reaching the altar, The Cat That Sings did not find the dark figure that scratched her ass, but she did see Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut.
"Wh*re!"
The Cat That Sings pointed at Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut before swaying her body and disappearing with Stealth.
With her expression hardening, Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut clenched her fists and took a few steps back.
Bai Xiaoya also saw The Cat That Sings. Caught by surprise, she shouted, "Big sister, stop fighting!"
"Step aside. I'll f*ck with you too If you help that wh*re!"
After The Cat That Sings left these aggressive words, Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut swung her arm to gesture others to step back.
Empyrean South and Jiggly arrived and were stumped at this sight.
Jiggly was flabbergasted, "Lil Purple, why... why are you here?"
Empyrean South shook his head, "Disastrous, disastrous."
A flicker of blade glare appeared behind Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut but having predicted this move, Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut bent over and threw a punch.
"Wham!"
The Cat That Sings received a punch to the chest that forced her to retreat a few steps. She held her chest as she stood straight.
The Cat That Sings stomped her foot and shouted at Empyrean South and Jiggly, "What are you looking at? Come and help me!"
Jiggly was put on the spot, "Cat, please don't fight. Lil Purple..."
"Purple, your monkey boy ass!"
Empyrean South was more straightforward. He closed his eyes and said, "I see nothing, and it doesn't matter to me who dies." He then turned to walk away.
Hiding in a corner, Li Yi did not know how to react to this peculiar scene.
His plan was to instigate open battle between the two parties while he stood on the fence and reaped the rewards. By the looks of it, it went in a completely different direction. The two parties knew each other, and their relationship seemed complicated. They were acquainted but only The Cat That Sings and Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut had personal grudges against one another. The rest seemed to get along well...
Gulp!
Li Yi dunked another bottle of Advanced-level Fury Potion into his mouth. He was ready to make a move.
Jiggly stood there without doing anything, Empyrean South was far away while The Cat That Sings was cussing at Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut about being a wh*re, b*tch, c*nt, all sorts of profanity.
Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut stood there and took the verbal abuse without advancing.
Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut may be able to hold her peace, but Li Yi could not. He built up his Powered-up Arrow, drawing his bowstring back repeatedly.
Tch tch tch tch tch tch tst —
"Bp! Bp!"
Two swiveling arrows stuck near the ground as they were fired at a challenging degree. The target was none other than the person who Li Yi despised the most.
Tyrant Sword King the Fifth!
"Bp! Bp!"
Two Powered-up Arrows struck Tyrant Sword King the Fifth. This move has instantly killed him.
"An ambush!" Tyrant Sword King the Fifth shouted upon collapse.
