Chapter 647: Stiffie Sword

Clang! Clang!

With both the Fire Dragon Sword the and the Tuhr Sacred Sword discovering one another, the blades shimmered and crashed into each other.

“Bang!”

“Bang!”

The collision of metals set sparks ablaze. It was a magnificent scene.

Li Yi, Brother Windcloud Nine, even the Tuhr Sacred Sword’s master, Sister Windcloud Nine all became spectators at this point. They wanted to join in the fun but received a notification the moment they were ready to make a move.

[Attacks prohibited.]

With the quest plot triggered, no one knew what was to come…

“Come on, come on!” Sister Windcloud Nine cheered.

“Wham! Bang!”

The two divine weapons were brutal and straightforward in their attacks, ramming at each other.

“Krr tst —”

After eleven consecutive collision, a crack appeared on the surface of the Tuhr Sacred Sword, causing it to split into half before falling to the ground.

“My sword… Oh, my sword…”

Sister Windcloud Nine wanted to step forward but was pulled back by Brother Windcloud Nine. The plot was not over so getting up there now might cost them their earlier efforts.

The Tuhr Sacred Sword split in half grew bleak, a complete contrast to the spirited Fire Dragon Sword dancing around in the air.

The Tuhr Sacred Sword lost…

As Sister Windcloud Nine whimpered, the half-broken Tuhr Sacred Sword struggled to gain momentum and charged at the Fire Dragon Sword…

“Bang!”

“Bp!”

The Fire Dragon Sword was unharmed, but the half-broken Tuhr Sacred Sword was smashed to smithereens, scattering all over.

This time, the Tuhr Sacred Sword was thoroughly defeated.

“Clang clang!”

The Fire Dragon Sword arrogantly spun around the trio before slashing midair to slice open space. It then went in and disappeared.

The Fire Dragon Sword fled.

“What am I going to do? My sword’s gone…”

Brother Windcloud Nine was stunned, “What quest is this? Is it over?”

The other half of the Tuhr Sacred Sword remained on the ground. Sister Windcloud Nine went over to pick it up. Ding! She received a quest notification.

[Congratulations! You’ve completed Sword’s Ultimate State quest!]

“The quest’s completed. I obtained…”

“Clang clang clang!”

Before Sister Windcloud Nine could finish, the half-broken Tuhr Sacred Sword in her hands throbbed and jumped up to slice space.

At the appearance of a dimensional rift, the half-broken Tuhr Sacred Sword swiftly dove in.

Sister Windcloud Nine was confused, “It went after the Fire Dragon Sword, the quest seems to want me to follow?”

Li Yi answered, “Go. I’m guessing you have to complete the quest.”

Sister Windcloud Nine looked towards Brother Windcloud Nine and at the gesture of him nodding, she entered the dimensional rift.

Li Yi complimented, “Brother Nine, you’ve taught her well.”

“Well, we men have to be tough sometimes.”

“Hahaha…”

The two exchanged glances and smiled.

With Sister Windcloud Nine off on her quest, Li Yi and Brother Windcloud Nine sat in the Flaming Dragon Lair for a little chit chat.

In the beginning, they both engaged in talking about the game, but the topic was soon switched elsewhere.

“Brother Nine, what sort of business are you in on?”

“I don’t do business. I was born into a family with money, so gaming is my business.”

“Hehe, cool.”

The more Li Yi conversed with Brother Windcloud Nine, the more he found it strange.

Brother Windcloud Nine was definitely wealthy. The money he spent in King of Pantheon was probably way too much.

He never saw Brother Nine out of funds, whether enhancing weapons or buying equipment. Brother Nine could get his hands on anything his heart desired. Wish Stones were special material required for enhancement and, in the worst-case scenario, the weapon might not even be enhanced to +10 even with tens of millions of them. Without an abundance of funds, it was impossible to get weapons to +13.

Brother Nine said he did not have a job but why did Sister Nine mention he had a business?

Who was lying between this couple?

Li Yi switched the topic, “How long have you been married to Sister Nine?”

Brother Windcloud Nine paused. His eyes dimmed a little. “We aren’t officially married yet.”

“Oh? When are you getting married? Remember to invite me, I’ll definitely be there.”

“Hehe, if there’s such a day, I’ll definitely invite you.”

“Haha, I will be there.”

Li Yi blathered on and realized Brother Windcloud Nine was only interested in talking about the game. He was despondent when it came to any other topics.

Brother Windcloud Nine suddenly asked a question, “Dark Wing, what do you think of Sister Nine?”

Li Yi’s mind went black for a while and nodded, “She’s great. Obedient and smart. She’ll make a good wife.”

“Haha, I’ll admit she’s obedient but smart? Haha…”

Brother Windcloud Nine laughed for a brief moment before sighing emotionally, “We have been together for many years, but we are not shy around each other…”

“What are you waiting for? Just get married already.”

Brother Windcloud Nine smiled bitterly, “Hehe, do you think I don’t want to if I could? This silly woman is a rare find…”

“Why?”

Brother Windcloud Nine did not answer Li Yi. A moment later, he talked about something else, “It’s taking a lot of time, why isn’t she out yet?”

The dimensional rift sliced by the divine sword has disappeared. Sister Windcloud Nine’s icon was still blinking but when Li Yi tried to contact her, he found that communication was temporarily frozen.

It seemed that they had to wait for her to show up.

“Are you home? Why don’t you log off to check on Sister Nine?”

Brother Windcloud Nine seemed bothered but nodded in agreement, “Okay, let’s wait for a while, if she’s not here then, I’ll go take a look.”

An hour passed yet Brother Windcloud Nine remained seated on the ground. Li Yi did not want to keep pushing him on the matter, so he continued babbling.

Li Yi looted the Wicked Flaming Dragon’s corpse and received two Purple Quality items. One of them was a bracer Li Yi liked as it had +300 STR and 10% damage-increase effects.

High ATK equipment was what he needed now.

Li Yi did not bother asking Brother Windcloud Nine and equipped the item.

Li Yi was familiar with Brother Windcloud Nine’s character from their long collaboration. Whatever equipment he had no use for, no matter the rarity and value, he was not interested, nor did he want them.

Two hours later…

“Tst tst —”

A ripple distorted the air, making way to a dimensional rift. Walking out of it was Sister Windcloud Nine holding a yellow scroll.

Bp cha!

The half-broken Tuhr Sacred Sword dropped on the ground and Sister Windcloud Nine picked it up.

Brother Windcloud Nine ran over, “How was it? Did you complete the quest?”

Sister Windcloud Nine shook her head, “Not yet.”

When she entered the dimensional rift, she did not see the Fire Dragon Sword, so she followed the half-broken Tuhr Sacred Sword in a pitch-dark space for hours and found this yellow scroll in the end. The half-broken Tuhr Sacred Sword then ripped space open and let her out.

Brother Windcloud Nine took the scroll for closer inspection, “What scroll is this? Why isn’t there anything written on it?”

Li Yi said, “This is a Pantheon Ruins Teleportation Scroll. With this, you can teleport to Pantheon Ruins once.”

Brother Windcloud Nine’s eyes lit up. “You mean, the place to learn Territory?”

Sister Windcloud Nine was generous, “Hubby, here, for you.”

Li Yi shook his head, “The item can’t be traded. Brother Nine can’t see anything on the scroll but you can.”

Brother Windcloud Nine sighed. “I put up a ten million reward to buy the way to master Territory. I didn’t think my wife would be faster than me…”

“Brother Nine, luck is part of a person’s ability. Your wife has quite the ability.”

“Haha… I guess so.”

“Ancient pantheon in deep slumber, heed my call…”

Szh —

With a flash of white light, Sister Windcloud Nine vanished out of thin air.

Brother Windcloud Nine was dumbstruck, “Where… Where did she go?”

Li Yi did not know how to react. Prior to Sister Windcloud Nine, Jiaojiao was in a similar situation. She recited the incantation and was sent to the Pantheon Ruins.

Li Yi actually had one more Pantheon Ruins Teleportation Scroll but there was no use for another trip with his current Territory Power at such a low rank.

Brother Windcloud Nine enquired, “Will Territory be mastered once in the Pantheon Ruins?”

“It’s not a guarantee. Luck and ability work hand in hand.”

“Oh no, my silly wife has the luck but ability, I can conclude, is something she’s lacking.”

“Hehe, don’t be so sure. Maybe Sister Nine might come out a Territory Master.”

With Sister Windcloud Nine in the Pantheon Ruins, there was no point for Li Yi and Brother Windcloud Nine to remain here. Brother Windcloud Nine excused himself while Li Yi searched around for the Fire Dragon Sword for a while. In the end, he had to give up.

Compared to before, the newly spawned Fire Dragon Sword was obviously more powerful. Its SPD was way too fast for Li Yi’s arrows to keep up as they were fired in all directions, leaving him nothing to fend against the Blade Auras.

Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut must have defeated the Wicked Flaming Dragon but failed against the Fire Dragon Sword.

This was the conclusion Li Yi made after witnessing the Fire Dragon Sword’s abilities.

Li Yi rubbed his Reusable Return City Stone and returned to the Celestial Capital. He had just left when a silver armor clad Warrior, Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut arrived at the Flaming Dragon Lair.

The time difference was no more than 10 minutes.

“Fire Dragon Sword, I will triumph today!”

Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut set foot into the Flaming Dragon Lair.

Siu tch tch tch tch…

Flaming Dragon Lair’s gate slowly bolted shut.

Li Yi went offline after he returned to the city. He received a phone call from Chen Yang.

Half an hour later, the door to his house was pushed open. With red eyes, Chen Yang ran in gasping for air.

“Brother Yi…”

“What’s up?”

Chen Yang shook his head and took out a cigarette to light up. His hand trembled as he drew breaths. Choking on his own smoke, he said, “Do you have any money? I… I want to borrow some money.”

“How much?”

Chen Yang’s face went red, “The more the better…”

Turning and walking into the house, Li Yi retrieved a Crystal Credit Card and handed it to Chen Yang.

“There’s about a million in there, take it.”

“Brother Yi…” Chen Yang curled his lips. His eyes were wet.

“Go.”

“Tell Ice to take the money off my wages.”

Chen Yang hurriedly left.

Watching Fatty’s receding figure, Li Yi smiled and shook his head. He closed the door behind him.

A similar incident had happened in his past life, but Li Yi did not have any money back then. Even if he sold off all his equipment, it was not enough to help Fatty. Although Fatty did not say anything about it, he was ridden by guilt.

Whatever regrets he had in his past life; he was going to fix in this one…
