Chapter 546: Tyrant Sword King the Fifth

“150,000!”

Tyrant Sword King really was not short on money. The moment Li Yi stated that he would not sell the information even for 100,000 Gold Coins, he immediately added an additional 50,000 without an ounce of hesitation.

Li Yi ignored him, and he took down his progress list.

When it came to someone we hate, our actions make no sense. For Li Yi, that person was Tyrant Sword king the Fifth. The moment Li Yi spotted him; he felt a wave of discomfort. Naturally, his behavior was related to his experiences in his past life. Ever since Drifting Snow Alliance gave the order to hunt Li Yi down, the punk did nothing else but to hunt Li Yi down all day. Li Yi would not care if it was only once or twice, but who would not be mad if they were hunted tens to hundreds of times?

Additionally, the events that aggravated Li Yi the most was the reactions of the players after he was killed. They leaped about in celebration and clapped their hands with praise. It was as if Tyrant Sword King the Fifth had done something remarkable within their eyes.

Even though Li Yi scammed others, he always had a line that he would never cross, which was scamming innocent players. However, in the end, his reputation as a cheater was already set in stone, and they drove him until he had nothing else to lose. By then, he no longer cared who he scammed as there was no longer a path to return to.

“Friend!”

The moment Li Yi hid his progress list, Tyrant Sword King the Fifth walked over. Since Li Yi had obscured his name, Tyrant Sword King the Fifth had no idea that he was Dark Wing of the Invincible Continent.

Tyrant Sword King the Fifth rushed at Li Yi and gave him a bear hug. “Brother, I hope you can forgive me if I’ve rubbed you wrongly just now, and that we can become friends.”

The punk was over 180 meters tall, and the edges of his face were well defined. Just by standing there, he exuded the presence of a male model. He was good-looking and refused to use expletives, and overall, he was even more charming than Ashy Sky of Legendary Tribe.

He was another person with countless female fans. However, he was different from the Lil White Face, Ashy Sky or the lady-loving scum, Arthur in the sense that he never had any scandals in the entirety of his gaming life.

Tyrant Sword King the Fifth’s speaking tone was sincere, which made Li Yi even more uncomfortable. The moment he thought back on his past life’s experiences, a murderous urge manifested within his heart.

The more Tyrant Sword King the Fifth presented himself as a benevolent figure, the more enraged Li Yi became.

Seeing the ominous expression hanging on Li Yi’s face, Tyrant Sword King the Fifth frantically asked, “How does 300,000 sound? That’s all I have on me. I really want your guidance on those five challenges.”

“I don’t need it!” Li Yi was obstinate.

Tyrant Sword King the Fifth was bewildered. He did not understand, after all, 300,000 Gold Coins was not a measly figure…

Li Yi was too lazy to explain, and instead, he gave a heavy snort when he passed by Tyrant Sword King the Fifth and sauntered away.

He was truly and utterly disgusted by Tyrant Sword King. So much so that he no longer wanted to be touched by anybody else.

Li Yi walked out of the tent, but he did not leave the area. Encountering Tyrant Sword King was not a regular occurrence and letting him off, scot-free was not how he did things.

How could Li Yi vent his rage without giving him a harsh lesson?

After two or so hours had gone by, Tyrant Sword King the Fifth rode out of the campsite on his Black Beetle mount.

Conquer’s map was extremely huge and it felt like a brand-new universe. Players might feel that the dungeon is chaotic and cramped initially, but the deeper they delved, the stronger the sense of stumbling into a whole new world.

Li Yi looked up Tyrant Sword King the Fifth using the Divine Looking Glass. From it, he learned that Tyrant Sword King was currently at Level 95, and he was equipped with Tier 2 Equipment, while the rest of his equipment was Level 90 Purple Quality Equipment.

‘His equipment ain’t bad!’

It seemed as if Tyrant Sword King the Fifth was feeling pretty good. He was constantly singing while he strolled along the road. However, Li Yi had no idea what he was singing. ‘Hur Dur Screech, his voice sucks’— Li Yi’s original words.

Li Yi constantly tailed Tyrant Sword King the Fifth. The Black Beetle mount was not slow by any means, but Li Yi’s Holy Light Warhorse was quicker. Thus, tailing Tyrant Sword King the Fifth was an effortless task.

Tyrant Sword King the Fifth walked for about twenty minutes before stopping.

The path ahead was filled with lines. It looked like a massive chessboard, and there were plenty of players strolling on top of it. Every now and then there would be a massive explosion, and the players would be blasted to kingdom come.

It was another mini-challenge, it was called, ‘The result of the Goblins’ newest research, the Marvels of Explosions’.

Within the chessboard path that was filled with lines and crosses, buried a wide variety of finely crafted Engineering products, landmines.

Tyrant Sword King the Fifth carefully treaded along the chessboard path, and after stumbling left and right for thirty or so meters, he did not even step on a single landmine. It was evident that the punk had already purchased the strategy for passing the chessboard path.

Woosh! Woosh! Woosh!

Three Flame Arrows landed beside Tyrant Sword King the Fifth’s feet. It was odd, as normal Flame Arrows would vanish a while after missing a ‘non-living’ target. However, these three Flame Arrows were an anomaly. They showed no signs of extinguishing and were burning even strongly instead. In a blink of an eye, a sea of flames had engulfed the path and had ignited the landmines nearby.

The color drained from Tyrant Sword King the Fifth’s face.

Kaboom! Kaboom! Kaboom!

After three thunderous explosions, Tyrant Sword King was blasted into the sky, and when he crashed into the ground, he was no longer breathing.

Thick smoke billowed from him, and they did not vanish for quite some time. Tyrant Sword King the Fifth laid on the ground for a while as he was reluctant to release his soul.

There were no temples nearby, and upon death, he would need to resurrect at the dungeon’s entrance.

“Friend, although the dungeon’s rules allow sabotage among players, don’t you think your backstabbing action is a tad overboard?”

Li Yi did not answer him.

“Hehe, I know you’re still here. Killing is a norm within this game, it’s no biggie and I don’t hold grudges. Friend, why don’t you reveal yourself so that we could become friends?”

Li Yi continued to ignore him.

Ten minutes had gone by, and Tyrant Sword King the Fifth’s time limit was nearing its end. If he still did not release his soul, the system would forcefully do it for him.

Tyrant Sword King quickly stood up and backed out of the landmine zone. After making sure there was no danger by using his sensory skill, he bravely walked back into the chessboard path.

Tyrant Sword King the Fifth’s Class was Weapon Warrior. He was wielding a two-handed Epic-level greatsword called Sky Splitter. It had a design that was extremely eye-catching, and it was in no way inferior to Jiaojiao’s Lord of Disaster.

Woosh! Woosh! Woosh!

Tyrant Sword King the Fifth did not make it very far when Li Yi drew his bow and fired three Flame Arrows at him.

Kaboom! Kaboom! Kaboom…

Another chain reaction of explosions was set off, and Tyrant Sword King the Fifth was burnt into ashes. Once again, he collapsed onto the ground.

“Friend… Heh, what grudge do you have against me? Why are you doing this to me?” Tyrant Sword King gave a helpless chuckle as he lied on the ground.

This punk has a pretty good temper. I’ve already sabotaged him twice and he still managed to laugh.

Li Yi had no idea why, but the more radiant Tyrant Sword King was, the angrier Li Yi got…

“Mogu! Mogu!”

Even the mogu cat that was accompanying Li Yi could not comprehend Li Yi’s motives. It constantly cried out. Thankfully, Li Yi was the only one who could see him, otherwise, Li Yi’s position would have been exposed long ago due to its cries.

“Friend, this is the second time already. Even if you have a grudge against me, this should settle it right?”

Tyrant Sword King the Fifth rose from the ground once again. It seemed that the punk had quite a number of ‘resurrection tools’…

Resurrection tools were extremely invaluable, and items of that type had always been a chance discovery. For many players, they were only the stuff of dreams, as attaining them was nigh impossible.

“Friend, I have nothing else to say if you still continue to attack me. However, I would no longer stand up as I’ve exhausted my supplies of Resurrection Stones. So, do as you please.”

Tyrant Sword King the Fifth entered the chessboard path. However, Li Yi stayed his hand this time. Instead, he observed his intermittent movements, his occasional motion to the left and right, and his gradual advance.

By the time Tyrant Sword King had almost approached the finish line, he turned his head around and with a brimming smile, he spoke, “Haha, friend, your archery skills are pretty good. Say, do you have an interest in becoming friends?”

Woosh! Woosh! Woosh!

Three Flame Arrows rocketed towards Tyrant Sword King the Fifth, and his smile was frozen stiff…

He was only ten steps away from completing the challenge…

Tyrant Sword King’s corpse vanished. He really was not lying. He had exhausted his supply of Resurrection Stones.

“You deserved it!”

Li Yi spitefully walked out of his hiding spot.

Nobody had paid attention to his spot, as they were all fully engrossed in finding the correct path. Players were blasted into the sky every now and then, so, who in the right mind would pay attention to his spot?

Following the path that Tyrant Sword King the Fifth’s used just now, Li Yi entered the chessboard, and after making a few turns, he quickly walked out of the landmine area.

He effortlessly aced the challenge, and aside from attaining 1% of dungeon progress, he had also obtained a Mana Seed!

“To that b*stard who rode a gold horse and wielded a gold bow, scr*w you! Are you brave enough to answer me! Are you brave enough to stand before me like a man?”

Li Yi had just made it out of the landmine zone when someone started to scold him in the Region Channel.

The person who was shouting did not hide her name. She was called ‘The Cat that Sings’. Though Li Yi did not see her in person, from the ‘aggressive’ tone she took, Li Yi could guess who she was.

It must have been the black-clad Thief that killed herself due to her own antics.

“To the b*stard who rides a gold horse and uses a gold bow, are you brave enough to answer me? Scr*w you! To think that you have the audacity to get on my Sister Cat’s nerves, you’re better off dead!”

Another message was posted in the Region Channel. However, Li Yi realized that something was amiss. The sender was actually Scumbag Wang.

‘So, they’re acquaintances?’ Li Yi linked two and two, and he realized that they had indeed acted similarly.

It was not just Scumbag Wang though, as the whole Huashan Sect had arrived as well to sow chaos in the Region Channel. The Huashan Sect spammed messages one after another, and they were swearing like no tomorrow.

Li Yi had a devious thought. The moment he heard the Huashan Sect’s swearing, he thought of a good idea. He anonymously messaged ‘The Cat that Sings’.

“My name’s Tyrant Sword King the Fifth! I’m currently waiting outside the dungeon for you. Come out and get me if you dare! F*ck you!”

Those who were forcefully sent out of the dungeon by the system were not allowed to return for a certain interval. As such, Tyrant Sword King the Fifth was definitely still standing outside the entrance.

“F*ck you! Don’t blame me when you die!” The Cat that Sings answered gleefully.

Back in a certain corner of Conquer, the Huashan Sect committed mass suicide under the leadership of Scumbag Wang. They wanted to hurry out of the dungeon, and under the circumstance where they did not possess Dungeon Escape Scrolls, suicide was the easiest method.

Outside Conquer, besides its entrance, Tyrant Sword King the Fifth was helplessly shaking his head as he checked his status bar to track the time he needed before entering the dungeon again.

It was at that moment that he spotted a black-clad Thief making her way over. After checking his name and nodding her head, she immediately circled behind his back and used ‘Chisel’.

Shank! Shank! Shank! Shank!

A beautiful flurry of strikes was unleashed, and Tyrant Sword King the Fifth had crumpled onto the ground.

The Explosive Thief had unleashed a nineteen-combo assault!

Catty as Sister Cat might be, she was not to be underestimated as her true strength was not to be trifled with!

Tyrant Sword King was starting to feel dejected as he lied on the ground. He had encountered quite a number of maniacs that day…
