…

The Megasnake Bow’s attributes were quite good, far exceeding that of the Wrath of the Stars just on damage alone. It even came with Dark attribute ATK and two powerful special effects. It was perfect in every aspect.

Jiaojiao gave her evaluation after reading the attributes, “The attributes are great. I think it’s better than your Big Girl Bow.”

Jiaojiao named the Wrath of the Stars, a Big Girl Bow because every time Li Yi used God Mode, the Hunter Goddess would embrace him from behind and as her body was way bigger than Li Yi’s, she was called a big girl.

Li Yi shook his head, “It seems that way, but if all the seals are broken on my Wrath of the Stars, this Megasnake Bow won’t be able to compare to it.”

Qian’er added, “Just switch it up sometimes.”

“Yeah,” Li Yi stored the Wrath of the Stars and equipped Aora’s Megasnake Bow. Attributes aside, the Megasnake Bow’s +2 Holy attribute would be useful to him for a while.

With him switching equipment halfway, Li Yi had now accumulated the more Holy attribute points than Jiaojiao who originally had the most at 5 points. The Holy attributes on all his equipment added up to 7 points, 2 points higher than Jiaojiao.

As they ventured further, more demons with horns on their heads popped up. Whether it was a leader or an underling monster, the demons looked about the same. The only difference was their size and color. Under normal circumstances, the smaller the demon, the weaker they were. Of course, there was an exception and that was the color. Purple demons regardless of size were notoriously powerful.

Although Li Yi was familiar with the route, they encountered many demon underlings on their journey. There was only one way to move ahead and that was to clear the demons in their way.

Aora’s Megasnake Bow’s potential was fully revealed while they were wiping out a group of demons. No matter what skill Li Yi used, every attack was doubled into two. One Overlord Arrow became two Overlord Arrows. One Meteor Arrow became two Meteor Arrows. Moreover, the second additional attack exhausted no mana. With this, Li Yi could inflict double the damage.

Lugging her greatsword over her, Jiaojiao nagged, “That Megasnake Bow’s a real keeper, way better than your Big Girl Bow. Lil Yi’zi, trust your sis here, just throw that Big Girl Bow away.”

“Step aside you!”

Li Yi led the way and avoided the wandering demon bosses to the best of his abilities as they cleared batch after batch of underlings. In the span of one hour, they had gathered 26 trashy items when they checked their spoils.

The trio passed by a black wasteland when Jiaojiao cried out loud.

“Purple Name boss, hey hey hey, Purple Name boss.”

Within the black wasteland, stood a Purple Name boss, holding an axe. Its body was huge, and the name displayed above it was an eye-catching General Mara.

Turning a blind eye, Li Yi continued his journey ahead.

“Lil Yi’zi, a Purple Name boss, Purple Name boss.”

Jiaojiao ran in front of Li Yi and waved her hands frantically at him.

“I saw it, what?”

“What do you mean what? Attack it! It’s a Purple Name boss. Surely it’ll drop something good?”

Li Yi nodded, “Yes, it will drop something good. The worst General Mara can do is drop a Purple Quality item and the drop rate for a Holy attribute item is high.”

“Then why aren’t we on it?”

“Go ahead if you want to. We’re rushing for time.”

Stopping at her tracks, Jiaojiao stared at General Mara long and hard. In the end, she stomped on her foot and chased after Li Yi.

“Threesome or nothing. You can’t just leave me behind!”

The trio moved forward and soon Miss Jiao feasted her eyes on General Demon Cloud, General Demon Strike, General Demon Wolf, General Demon Pig…

Li Yi did not engage in battle, taking detours at the sight of the Purple Name bosses, triggering Jiaojiao to cry out loud yet unable to do anything about it.

There was no temple in Foreignland. Should a player die without any resurrection tools, they would be forcefully teleported back to their nation and lose 1% EXP.

With another three hours passing by, Jiaojiao could not stand it any longer, “Lil Yi’zi, are you trying to do? You won’t attack even when there’s a boss. You’re just traveling ahead. Don’t… Don’t tell me you’re gonna straight for Demon King Piccolo?”

“What Demon King Piccolo?”

“The biggest boss around here.”

“… I’ve only heard of Foreignland’s seven Demon Gods, but I’ve never heard of this Demon King Piccolo. Oh Jiaojiao, stop watching Dragonball and start watching Pleasant Goat that’s good for your heart and soul but don’t be influenced by Big Big Wolf ¹ . You’ll learn more from Pleasant Goat.”

Jiaojiao made a throat-slitting gesture.

While Li Yi and Jiaojiao were bickering, Qian’er stood there smiling. She was on the fence and only here for the show.

Of course, Li Yi only loved bickering with Jiaojiao and never did the same with Qian’er. The trio walked for another hour before Qian’er asked Li Yi for a short brief on Foreignland.

“Foreignland’s map is huge. Coordinates aren’t displayed and flying mounts can’t be used here. It’s really hard to put into words how huge this place is but I can bet you that we’re still in the Seventh Demon God’s territory.”

The depths of Foreignland was split into seven territories based on their ranks. Ruled by the Demonic Tribe’s strongest Demon Gods, they were Foreignland’s seven Demon Gods.

Foreignland’s seven Demon Gods were the cause of the Demonic Tribe running amok. They were the ones who plotted assaults on the Pantheon Continent. In other words, if it were not for them, there would not be a Demonic Invasion expansion.

“Remember all those Purple Name bosses we passed by? It’s not that I don’t want to attack them, but I can’t defeat them. Those guys are all incredibly ferocious and have crazy high HP. Just us alone would take at least seven or eight hours to defeat maybe one. We’re now rushing for time so trying our hand at these bosses wouldn’t be worth it.”

Jiaojiao butted in, “What are we racing against time for?”

Chuckling, Li Yi pulled his head forward and pointed at his face, “Kiss me and I’ll tell you.”

Flashing her fangs, Jiaojiao showed her vicious side, “Can I bite instead?”

“I’d prefer if you blow me instead.”

“Scram!”

Qian’er asked, “Why are we rushing for?”

Fixating his gaze ahead, Li YI nodded and clenched his fist tight, “To kill the Seventh Demon God!”

At the opening of the Demonic Invasion expansion, the three human heroes, Augustus, Elenor, and Emperor Lan flew into Foreignland to challenge the Demon God after vanquishing three waves of the demon forces. For the players, there was only one chance for them to face a weakened Seventh Demon God.

In the plot of the Demonic Invasion, the three heroes’ united attack against Seventh Demon God was a failure. After fleeing out of Foreignland, they were no longer allowed in. All they could do was keep watch outside the Abyssal Crevice and take care of the incoming demon forces.

The three heroes may have failed in their attempt, but the Seventh Demon God had sustained severe injuries. Its severely wounded state would last until it was killed by the players.

Li Yi avoided bosses as they advanced further in because he had his eyes on the weakened Seventh Demon God. There was only one chance and if other players were to seize the moment first, the newly spawned Seventh Demon God would no longer be in a severely wounded state.

In the past life, Seventh Demon God’s first kill was taken was a Southern Continent party on the first day the Demonic Invasion expansion was released. Li Yi was going full speed ahead to prevent this incident from happening.

“Ao ao ao ao ao aoo —”

Suddenly, a rush of screams could be heard from the front. Upon raising their line of vision, a swarm of demon soldiers could be seen surging over like an ocean wave.

Li Yi stopped his explanation, “Be alert, get on your mounts.”

Li Yi rode on his Holy Light Warhorse while Jiaojiao and Qian’er summoned their respective mounts.

“Follow me, don’t fall behind.”

Jiaojiao asked, “What if we fall behind?”

“You’ll know if you do.”

Letting out a shout, Li Yi dashed forward with Jiaojiao and Qian’er trailing close behind, keeping a foot distance apart.

“Ao ao ao ao aooo…”

With the demon army discovering Li Yi, they howled as they charged towards him.

Li Yi did not keep to a straight line but moved around in circles, shaking off the demon army.

The demon army pursued behind, but Li Yi did not run too fast. He kept it just right so there was still a distance between the demons and after the slope they passed, he suddenly accelerated.

“Full speed ahead!”

The trio on mounts ran like greased lightning and soon was able to shake off the demon army. Five minutes later, Li Yi halted his horse and turned to shoot Jiaojiao and Qian’er to death before collapsing onto the ground with Pseudocide.

“You got me again…”

Qian’er, “…”

“Ao ao ao…”

It was only when the howling sounds of the demon army became softer that Li Yi got up from the ground and took out his Cardiac Pacemaker to electrocute Qian’er.

“Why can’t you save me first?” Jiaojiao viciously commented seeing Qian’er was resurrected first.

Li Yi answered, “You didn’t say so earlier.”

The demons’ tracking ability was fairly impressive. If Li Yi did not break away from battle using Pseudocide, he would not be able to break away from battle no matter where he was in Foreignland. This meant that these demons would hunt him until he died.

With the demons numbering hundreds of millions, it was almost impossible to kill them all and even if they could, it would cost them a lot of time. Li Yi held to his principle of not fighting so the two women would have to bear the consequences of playing dead.

His Cardiac Pacemaker was only effective once every half an hour so Jiaojiao was still lying on the ground as she blurted, “Lil Yi’zi, let me ask you, if Big-tits girl and I were to fall into a river, who would you rescue first?”

Hearing this question, Qian’er narrowed her eyes at Li Yi, awaiting an answer.

“Can I just save both of you?”

“No!” Jiaojiao and Qian’er cried out in unison.

Li Yi thought of it for long, “I will rescue Jiaojiao first.”

“Why? Why?” Jiaojiao was overjoyed.

Li Yi scratched his head, “Then I’ll save Qian’er first.”

Qian’er burst into laughter, “Thank you.”

Jiaojiao panicked, “Why? Why did you change your mind?”

“Because if I rescue you first, you’re gonna question me for not rescuing Qian’er first and for saving you first. Look at Qian’er, she didn’t ask anything and thanked me.”

Jiaojiao lay on the ground while deep in thought. She still could not figure it out, but Li Yi did not give her a chance to ask another question. He had Qian’er keep watch of her corpse while he went ahead to explore.
