MMO: Pierce Heaven Til’ It Breaks

“Wait, I changed my mind.”

Li Yi suddenly shouted just as Carulla was about to land a final blow.

Carulla stopped, and the light in her hand gradually disappeared. She gave a derisive expression.

“Bow to me mortal, swear your allegiance, and you shall become the Emperor of the Continent.”

Carulla’s hand was slightly raised, her face shone with an angelic halo. If this was reality, she would definitely be considered a god. However, this was just a game.

Even if she looked like one, she could only be an NPC in Li Yi’s eyes.

Him, bowing to an NPC?

Fat chance!

“F*ck off!” Li Yi faked a smile and hollered. He disappeared before the NPC could do anything.

Offline!

Even a god could not stop him!

Before Mount Pantheon was opened, it was bound by predominant forces. As such the gods could not descend to the mortal realm at will and Li Yi knew that. While Carulla’s language was strong, she could not linger in this world for too long, at most for one day.

What he was going to do now was to wait for her departure.

Kneeling to an NPC and spreading its sh*tty teachings, he refused to do these things. Complete freedom was the best thing about gaming, so, when facing Carulla he did not hold back.

“What even is a God-queen anyway? When I become the Ruler of Gods, I will marry her off to the barbaric orcs!”

Li Yi muttered, stretched, and walked out of the bedroom.

He had been gaming like mad and had rarely gone outside. Today, he would take the opportunity to walk around and relax.

He walked down the stairs and saw Qian’er. She was holding a mobile phone against her ear.

“I won’t go back, and I am definitely not marrying Wang Sheng. I don’t like him one bit, so stop forcing me!”

“It doesn’t matter if you don’t recognize me as your daughter, just don’t force me to marry somebody I don’t like. Stop messing with my life…”

Qian’er’s tone was agitated. She spoke in such a loud voice that it seemed obvious that she was arguing with the caller.

“Don’t force me, don’t force me! I… I already have someone else. We are living together now, and I am pregnant.”

Qian’er hung up and let out a long sigh.

She was talking to her father.

Li Yi coughed softly and continued heading downstairs.

Qian’er saw him and blushed. She had used Li Yi as her excuse not to get married. She felt a tad guilty, and he had come into her view right after she had finished. She could not help but think.

Li Yi walked to her side. “Having someone else? Living together? Pregnant?” he gave a faint smile as he touched his nose.

“Not you!” Her face turned red, and Li Yi grabbed hold of her before she had a chance to slip back into her room.

“Come with me.”

…

It was already late at night, and under the streetlight, Li Yi and Qian’er strolled down the street hand in hand. Li Yi knew her too well. They could talk about anything in his previous life. He could easily start the conversation on a topic, and she would join in easily.

This familiar yet strange feeling initially confused Qian’er, but it cleared up as time passed, replaced by an inexplicable trust.

She had no idea why, but with him beside her, she felt protected.

“My dad asked me to go home. Told me to marry King Fifth in six months, or he won’t recognize me as his daughter.” Qian’er’s nose was red, and she looked as if she would burst into tears at any minute.

“Then go. That guy’s ideal. Young, handsome, and wealthy. Though he has problems like stealing underwear that doesn’t matter. That’s just youthful stupidity. Adolescent impulses are completely understandable”

Qian’er glared at Li Yi. She shook off his hand and marched off angrily.

“Oh, calm down. I am telling the truth. I used to masturbate when I was young too…”

Li Yi chased her as she ran, and it lasted for about ten minutes. She slowed down, looking too tired to stand up.

“You know your breasts are a burden, stopping exerting yourself.”

“Damn you!”

Li Yi smirked and grabbed her hand by force. Qian’er struggled but backed down in the end.

Li Yi was very familiar with her temper. He knew what kind of jokes were too much for her. As long as he did not cross the line, he did not have to worry about actually pissing her off.

“I say, my family and looks are not as good as that Wang fella. Why do you still like me?”

Qian’er thought for a long time and said, “Well, you are slightly better than a bad man and technically taller than a dwarf…”

“Bloody hell!”

The pair walked for a long time before settling down in a noodle bar. Each had a full meal before they hit a cab and went home.

…

Worried that Carulla had not left, Li Yi did not go online. He followed Qian’er into her room but was rejected at the door.

“Being your someone else, living together, and getting pregnant, how about we make them happen?”

“That… will be for another day!”

Li Yi was frustrated. He thought their conversation today had made them close, and he was going to make further advances for the sake of her fun bags.

The door was shut tight. Li Yi turned the handle but to no avail.

Another day perhaps…

Li Yi went upstairs in disappointment and returned to his room. He reached his bed without turning on the lights.

He planned to sleep and go online in the morning.

Li Yi wanted to pull the blanket, but he touched some soft skin instead.

“Jiaojiao?”

Li Yi whispered. The body did not respond.

He sat up and saw a woman lying on the bed through the moonlight, she was wearing only a bikini.

It was Fire Ice.

Li Yi did not know whether to laugh or cry. She was extremely demure and shy, so the only way she could take advantage of him was to act like she was asleep.

She would wander into her bed every time, and he would fail to wake her no matter how hard he called.

How to wake up a person who was pretending to be asleep?

Li Yi shook his head and pulled the blanket over Fire Ice. He then lay down and hugged her to sleep.

Even if he did not want to take further action, he could not just leave. Li Yi walked away once, and the next day he found her with reddish eyes. She had clearly wept.

He did not want to make her sad.

Li Yi gazed at her, smelling the fragrance in her hair, and suddenly felt bad for doing so…

Just as Li Yi was about to pass out, a sound came from outside the door. Then the door was opened halfway, a small head appeared and shouted, “Sky King covers ground tiger!”¹

Where had Jiaojiao come from?

Li Yi awoken by this surprise. He also felt Fire Ice trembling in his arms.

Li Yi did not dare to answer.

“Sky King covers ground tiger!”

“Sky King covers ground tiger!”

Jiaojiao called a few more times but Li Yi still did not answer. He could feel that Fire Ice was shaking.

Obviously ashamed and afraid.

Jiaojiao tried calling out a few more times with no response. She opened the door and made her way to the bed.

Li Yi was anxious, he squeezed his throat and shouted, “The pagoda is engaged today, it cannot get hard.”¹

“Stop your nonsense!”

Jiaojiao merely wanted to check if Li Yi was absent. She was relieved after he answered.

Instead of leaving, Jiaojiao walked to the side and got into his bed.

“Why didn’t you respond? I called you so many times, but you ignored me!”

Fire Ice on the left, Jiaojiao on the right. With him in the middle, an unfathomable sensation overwhelmed him.

“Lil! Yi! Zi!”

The entirety of Li Yi’s room was filled with screaming anger.

“Ice, wake up, Ice!”

Jiaojiao shook Fire Ice a few times but the latter was too engrossed in her acting. Her eyes remained shut.

She was so embarrassed that she wanted a hole to stick her head in and never wake up.

“You… you monster! You f*cking drugged her? Oh, I swear to God you are so dead!”

Jiaojiao raised her foot toward Li Yi…
