Li Yi stayed at Xu Man’s place for half a day before taking the maglev train home.
All parties suffered TPK after clearing No. 1 boss in Glory dungeon. The dungeon has a particular characteristic where it did not allow any additions to the party midway, so Li Yi was left to continue alone.
The raymen were all taken care by the Paladin NPC but thereafter, was a raymen boss’ territory. No matter how Li Yi tried to kite it, he could not lure this raymen boss to the metal fortress. He was no match for the raymen boss on his own. He only managed to take 1,000,000 HP off his opponent before he was eliminated.
Several thousand players of the three camps were wiped out in their first attempt of Glory dungeon and the next time they wished to clear Glory dungeon, they have to wait until the reopening next month.
The progress in the game was changed yet again by Li Yi. With the undefeatable Spider King in the past life killed, whether or not Pantheon officials would weaken Spider King in the future was unknown.
By the time Li Yi returned home, it was deep into the night.
He took out his pair of keys to open the door, wobbling as he walked into the bedroom. Earlier during the meal at Xu Man’s, the Xu Man sisters kept pouring alcohol down his throat. Fortunately, he could hold his liquor, otherwise getting home tonight was out of the question.
To have a beautiful encounter with a celebrity or perhaps a three-way with the sisters… had crossed Li Yi’s mind but his thoughts were filled with a beautiful figure that did not allow him to think twice about other women.
In the brightly lit room, Jiaojiao was playing Pantheon, controlling her Dark Paladin and going solo in a 5-men Small Instance Dungeon of the Light and Darkness series.
Jiaojiao was completely absorbed in the game. Her technique was good and with her current Level 100 account, tackling a Level 60 6-men Small Instance Dungeon was a breeze.
Jiaojiao had no use for the equipment drops in the dungeon. She has her mind set on the pearls reward from the dungeon clearance in exchange for a few accessories from the Dark Paladin class.
Li Yi embraced Jiaojiao from behind.
“Who!”
Jiaojiao turned to return a knuckle sandwich but was blocked by Li Yi.
“Oh, you’re back. You gave me a fright,”
Recognizing it was Li Yi, Jiaojiao retrieved her controller and continued her game.
Li Yi murmured and rested his head on Jiaojiao’s thighs, closing his eyes.
Li Yi closed his eyes without moving a muscle. Jiaojiao was soon done playing the dungeon. She took off her goggle and pinched Li Yi’s face, contorting it into various expressions.
“Xie Jiaojiao,” Li Yi suddenly called her name.
“What?”
“Do you like me?”
“F*ck, mushy!”
Jiaojiao forcefully pushed him down before yawning and climbing up to bed.
After those days of hanging out, Jiaojiao and Li Yi’s relationship has progressed to bed-sharing. However, both parties still maintained a certain distance and never overstepped that boundary.
Li Yi was snoring aloud. The alcohol at Xu Man’s place was a little odd…
…
Li Yi slept until midday the next day. The sun was shining brightly in the sky when he listlessly opened his eyes.
Jiaojiao had already got up and went to work after making Li Yi his breakfast.
What did he do last night?
Li YI rubbed his heavy head, trying to pick up the pieces.
Speechless…
Worried that Jiaojiao would be angry, Li Yi picked up his phone and called her.
“What?” The line was connected and JIaojiao’s panting voice could be heard from the other side. She was showing her students some martial art moves.
“Last night…”
Jiaojiao’s breathing simmered down, “What’s done is done. The rest on my life is on you now, don’t shirk from your responsibility.”
“What’s done is done?” Li Yi really could not recall anything.
“Duh, would I lie about this? Bah, don’t take it for granted!”
By the tone of Jiaojiao’s voice, she would not waver. Li Yi’s mind was finally at ease, “Then let’s do it again tonight.”
“You wish! If you dare… dare to do it again, I… I’m not sleeping with you anymore,” Jiaojiao was furious when she hung up.
At least, the storm was over.
Li Yi let out a sigh of relief.
He got out of bed, washed his face, jogged, ate, and logged on the game. Li Yi’s life was simple and blissful.
At the flash of light, Li Yi appeared at the entrance of Glory dungeon.
Glory dungeon was locked. He could not enter at present so he returned to the city.
He has received Brother Windcloud Nine’s mail from the System. With a body of legendary Purple Quality equipment and 100 million Gold Coins in his hands, Brother Windcloud Nine has really lost face this time.
Looking at the equipment and Gold Coins, Li Yi felt a migraine coming. These items may be good, but not what he wanted.
Chickens came home to roost. It was a complete misunderstanding for how it turned out for Brother Windcloud Nine and him.
Tick tick tick…
While Li Yi was staring into blank space in Celestial Capital, a question mark frame was blinking. It was from Silly Swan.
“I’ve been waiting for you for a long time. Why didn’t you… come online the other day?” Silly Swan sounded down in the dumps.
“I didn’t have time.”
Silly Swan was silent, having nothing to say. In the end, it was Li Yi was asked her, “What’s wrong?”
“My husband lost a bet to my enemy. He’s feeling dejected, sigh…”
Li Yi was speechless. He could now confirm that Silly Swan was Sister Windcloud Nine!
Li Yi tried to put things into perspective for Sister Windcloud Nine, “There’s going to be wins and losses when it comes to bets. It’s alright, just accept it. The most important thing about playing games is to be happy.”
“But to my husband, it doesn’t matter whether he wins or loses but it’s a different story if the winner is my enemy. He wants to seek vengeance for me but lost instead. Anyone would be feeling depressed at this point.”
“It can’t be helped then, no point trying over spilled milk,” Li Yi comforted her. “If your nemesis were to return the items to your husband, would your husband still feel down?”
“Return? That’s impossible. My nemesis is despicable and treacherous. He may be famous but he doesn’t play fair. Right, I heard he has over ten girlfriends from the dregs of society!”
“Cough, cough…” Li Yi choked on her words.
“I said if…”
“There’s no ifs. Even if there is, my husband would never accept because he sees this as an insult.”
“Yeah, I think so too,” Li Yi sighed. He really did not want Brother Windcloud Nine’s stuff but he has no way to send them back.
“My husband’s been walking around with a sulky face. It’s so scary. I really don’t know what I can do to make him happy.”
Happy, happy…
Li Yi had an eureka moment.
He took out Divine Looking Glass and entered Sister Windcloud Nine’s name. After a purple ray flashed by, the character’s information appeared on the glass.

Wind-gazing Cape!
Li Yi’s eyes were shining.
Wind-gazing Cape was a scenic place in the Western Continent. This Level 90 map has one type of agile monster, clouded leopard.
Li Yi was a frequent customer in the past life. He knew the way to the place too well!
Li Yi immediately teleported to Abyssal Crevice and summoned Black-feathered Golden Eagle to set a path to Wind-gazing Cape.
