  Qian’er had her head held low throughout the entire breakfast session. She plucked the food from the dishes with a murderous expression, and the way she chomped down on her food was as if she was eating her nemesis’ flesh.

  Li Yi, on the other hand, was extremely calm. A joyful expression was plastered on his face as he eyed the three beautiful ladies around him.

  Fire Ice, however, seemed a little out of tune. She was fidgety and there was a peculiar air to her.

  Jiaojiao cut straight to the chase. “Ice, what’s up?”


  “N-N-Nothing much……”


  “You’re constantly fidgeting, it feels odd.”


  “I’m done eating. Yawn, I’m tired, I’m going to take a nap.”


  Fire Ice limped and lumbered her way into her room.

  “Jiaojiao, did you visit my room last night?”


  Jiaojiao shot him a glance. “In your dreams, huhu.”


  “Wait, so you didn’t visit me? Then how do you explain Fire Ice’s blanket……” Upon remembering Fire Ice’s weird walking pattern, Li Yi immediately clamped his mouth shut.

  He had indeed drunk too much last night, but it was not to the extent that he could not recall anything. He could still vaguely remember the events of the previous night……

  ‘Don’t tell me…… Don’t tell me……’


  Jiaojiao narrowed her eyes. “Lil Yi’zi, did you do something last night……”


  Li Yi kept a poker face. “I had a pleasant sleep last night.”


  After hastily downing his food, Li Yi went back into his room.

  The truth was too wild. He dared not think any further.

  ‘I really couldn’t have imagined a gentle lady like her would commit such a wild act.’


  ‘But if I think about it, the events last night……’
……

  The moment Li Yi logged in, he received countless messages. After skimming through them, he learned that the system had been upgraded.

  The chat system had been upgraded. Now, players no longer needed to send mails to one another. Regardless of the distance between players, they could easily communicate by using the voice chat.

  Li Yi had also received several congratulatory messages. However, Li Yi deleted them without sparing a second glance. After all, it did not matter whether he read them or not, as their contents were nearly the same. As such, Li Yi was only picking out the important messages from his mailbox.

  “Brother Wing! I have urgent news!”


  “Are you interested in earning some money?”


  “You won’t need to spend a single dime, and I assure you that you’ll earn so much that you’ll roll around in laughter!”


  There were a hundred or so similar voice messages, and they were all sent by the same person, the underhanded lady, Autumn Love.

  Li Yi had just deleted them when Autumn Love sent over a new voice message.

  “Brother Wing, have you finally logged on? I’ve been waiting for you for the entire night.”


  “What’s the matter?”


  “I have a huge batch of Sacred Potions. Are you interested?”


  Li Yi paused. “Huh?”


  “Hehe, recently, little missy here has involved herself in a side venture. While it did cost me quite a bit of money, I am doing this for Brother Wing’s sake. Since you’ve helped me so much, I figured, why not come up with an idea to make you some cash as well?”


  Once Li Yi connected the dots, he figured out what she was planning. He then feigned interest, asking, “And what’s this idea of yours?”


  “Take a gander at the Auction House, hehe, I now have a monopoly on Sacred Potions. I’m selling them at 12 Gold Coins per bottle currently, and business is booming. I’m selling them at a rate of 5,000 bottles per hour, which is amazingly lucrative. Lucrative indeed.”


  The sound of Autumn Love faking excitement was enough to make Li Yi bawl in laughter. After all, who else had gained a monopoly on Sacred Potions aside from himself?

  ‘Autumn Love, you’ve targeted the wrong person. Don’t you know that all your potions came from me, Underhanded Chick?’


  Li Yi exclaimed, “Is it really that lucrative!?”


  “Yep! Yep! Brother Wing, are you interested in making a fortune along with me?”


  “What do you propose?”


  “I bought the potions at 8 Gold Coins each. Seeing we’re good friends and all, I’ll sell them to you at 8 Gold Coins as well. With that, we can both make a killing.”


  Li Yi told Little Elf from the Magical Realm to scout out the Auction House for him. From that, he learned that his stock of Sacred Potions sold at 4 Gold Coins each had been bought out. It was another obvious case of Autumn Love’s devious schemes.

  Li Yi finally understood.

  Black Autumn was under the assumption that he was unaware of the Auction House’s current situation. As such, she made sure to buy up all the stock from the Auction House before he had come online. She then restocked them in the Auction House at a higher price tag and offered them at a lower price to Li Yi.

  ‘What a cunning lady……’


  Li Yi mentally commented

  ‘8 Gold Coins? That’s too expensive. Someone contacted me the other day and offered to sell them at only 3 Gold Coins per bottle. Furthermore, they allowed me to buy as many I wanted……”


  “3……3 Gold Coins?” Autumn Love’s voice was shaky. She was betting it all on this gambit and if Sacred Potion’s price were to drop to 3 Gold Coins, she would suffer considerable losses.

  “Impossible, that’s totally impossible! Brother Wing, hear me out, all together, the ingredients for crafting a Sacred Potion; which are Yellow Grass, Blue Soul, Green Tranquility, Purple Hope, would at the very least cost 7 Gold Coins. Brother Wing, I swear to God that I’m not lying to you……”


  Autumn Love swore to Li Yi in an attempt to show her sincerity.

  “Fine, I’ll tell you the truth then. I actually bought too many potions, and I’m getting a bit scared. That won’t do, so I’m going to sell them to you at a cheap price. How about 5 Gold Coins per bottle?”


  “I refuse.”


  With those two words alone, Li Yi had completely shut out Black Autumn. He then headed to the mermaid potion seller to purchase more Sacred Potions.

  All it cost him was 1.5 Gold Coins per bottle, so why would he buy them at 5 Gold Coins per bottle?

  “Brother Wing, let’s negotiate a bit more. Pleaseeeee……”


  Autumn Love was truly desperate now, and she sent a constant stream of voice messages.

  Li Yi paid her no mind, and like usual, he was about to buy the Sacred Potions in bulk.

  However, something disastrous occurred. After purchasing only 100 bottles of Sacred Potion, the interface for the mermaid potion store had automatically closed.

  “The potion you’ve requested has been sold out. Please come again tomorrow.” The owner of the mermaid potion store flashed him a faint smile.

  ‘The f*ck? This can’t be real, right?’


  Li Yi was flabbergasted.

  There was only one answer to this situation. The system had detected him trying to carve a niche for himself and made the necessary adjustments, removing the store’s infinite potion stock……

  Not willing to give up, Li Yi inquired, “So, I can’t purchase any more of them today?”


  “Please come again tomorrow.”


  ‘Not good, not good, not good……’


  It was now Li Yi’s turn to panic.

  There were only 1,000 of these potions in his inventory, and they were for his personal use. As such, he did not currently own any sellable stock. Compounded with the fact that the NPC store only sold 100 bottles per day now, if the situation continued any further……

  The Sacred Potions’ prices would skyrocket!

  Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding!

  Autumn Love continued sending voice message after voice message to Li Yi. She could not stall any longer. By sacrificing her sleep, she finally learned Li Yi’s restocking period, and the reason she chose to contact Li Yi now was to get her own stock of the Sacred Potions out before Li Yi had flooded the market with his own massive stock.

  ‘If someone’s going down, it won’t be me; if someone’s going to make a profit, it better be me.’ That was Autumn Love’s personal motto!

  After considering his alternatives, Li Yi rejoiced. “Can I still earn something from this situation?”


  Li Yi turned on his voice settings, and out came Autumn Love’s worried wails. “Brother Wing, after much consideration, I’m willing to sell them all at 4 Gold Coins per bottle. I repeat, 4 Gold Coins per bottle! This is my lowest possible price, and even this is considered a major loss for me. I swear to god, if you find any lies in my words, I’ll sell myself off as a slave……”


  “How many do you have? If it’s only 4 Gold Coins per potion, I’ll take them all!”


  “Brother Wing, bless your generous soul! I love you!” Autumn Love was so moved that she was on the brink of tears.

  Li Yi bought Autumn Love’s entire stockpile. On that day, Autumn love experienced the most comfortable slumber in her life. A sweet smile hung on her lips, and she could not help but laugh even in her dreamscape.

  ‘Well, I guess it’s not too big of a loss. All’s well that ends well. I gotta say though, Brother Wing is such a kind person, alas, he’s just a little silly. I still don’t feel good about tricking him like this……’
……

  The frenzy for the potions had temporarily subsided as the potion market was currently saturated. Thus, there were no major changes in potion prices. Regardless, Li Yi believed that after a few days, the price of Sacred Potions would soar once again.

  All the quests around the Mermaid Sea had been completed. Even so, Li Yi did not take a break. He hurriedly left the area and rushed his way to the North Pole Continent.

  In order to increase his Territory Power, Li Yi needed a vast sum of EXP points. Li Yi had currently increased his Territory Power to Rank 13, and if he did not use any Territory Skills, he could maintain his Territory Power for about 4 hours.

  ‘That isn’t good enough. It’s far from good. I need to work even harder.’


  In a blink of an eye, three days had gone by, and Li Yi received a voice message from Autumn Love.

  “Brother Wing, do you have any more potions? I…… I want to buy some of them from you.”


  Since the mermaid potion seller no longer had an unlimited supply of potions, within these three days, Sacred Potion’s price had doubled from 4 Gold Coins to 8 Gold Coins!

  Since Sacred Potion’s price was constantly rising, it was only natural for the sensitive Autumn Love to notice it. Moreover, the longer she observed the prices, the greater the regret she felt, causing her to have a rough time sleeping for the past few days.

  She was lamenting her decision greatly. After all, if she had stayed strong for just one day more, she would not have suffered any considerable losses.

  “I haven’t sold a single bottle.”


  “Hahaha, really? Then sell them to me at 4 Gold Coins per bottle then.”


  “Girl, the market price is now at 8 Gold Coins.”


  “Brother Yi, aren’t we besties?”


  Li Yi gave no further responses. Li Yi knew better than anyone else on how she conducted her business. The underhanded chick never had good intentions and had intended to drag him down with her. Alas, she had picked the wrong target.

  Li Yi minimized Autumn Love’s voice tab, and everything went silent.

  After the Brawl King Tournament, King of Pantheon re-entered another period of peace. The much-awaited increased level cap had yet to come, and the Instance Dungeon with the highest-level requirement was still Light and Darkness.

  As the players continued to upgrade their equipment, Light and Darkness’ difficulty continued to drop. (The additional buffs were still present) The number of parties that managed to bring down the Soul King continued to increase, and the boss that was originally deemed as invincible was now as easy as taking out the trash.

  However, the number of parties that attempted Hell-level difficulty remained low and even fewer managed to successfully complete it.

  “Lil Yi’zi, head to the Celestial Capital’s Palace ASAP! There’s an emergency!”


  That day, Li Yi was running quests in the North Pole Continent when he received a message from Queen Jiao.

  “What’s the matter?”


  “Hurry up! Hurry up! I’ve been taken advantage of.”


  “Huhhhhh?”


  “My assets are already swollen……”


  Without uttering another word, Li Yi quickly gripped his Reusable Teleportation Stone and made his way to the Celestial Capital’s palace.

  When Li Yi arrived at the palace, he noticed that Jiaojiao was grinning like a monkey as she hefted her greatsword.

  Angered, Li Yi chided, “Lil Chili, are you toying me?”


  “You usually prank me as well, so what’s wrong with me toying you every now and then?”


  “Fine……” After hearing Jiaojiao’s words, Li Yi could not bring himself to say anything else.

  “Actually, I called you here this time with only one thing in mind.”


  Jiaojiao walked forward with her greatsword in tow. After Jiaojiao baited Li Yi to look outside the palace, a loud ‘wham!’ could be heard.

  Jiaojiao had brought down her greatsword on Li Yi……

  [−786543]

  Crash!

  Li Yi fell to the ground, dead.

  Jiaojiao was using Territory Power!
