[World] Number One Brother: Aaaaahhhhhh!!

[World] I’m Super Cute: I think Number One Brother wasn’t deceived, he’s gone crazy.

[Announcement] Heroes arise in troubled times; empires are conquered in jest! Congratulations to player [Number One Brother] for obtaining [Eight Directions Stealth].

[World] …

[World] Number One Brother: Hahahahaha.

[World] A Single Cucumber: …Number One Brother, did you do some unspeakable PY deal with that Chu Xi?

[World] Bits and Pieces: Asking the same question.

[World] Richest Tycoon Number One: No, don’t talk nonsense.

[World] I’m a Wolf: Who’s this? Number One Brother’s long-lost relative?

[World] I’m Super Cute: Seems like… it’s Chu Xi.

All players opened the profile and saw that familiar outfit. Isn’t that the one worn by the big spender Chuzheng from yesterday?

As for yesterday’s events, people had almost forgotten about Yu Wuheng and Sanyue Qinghuan; they only remembered Chuzheng’s extravagant spending.

[World] A Single Cucumber: So now we’re using couple usernames?

[World] Richest Tycoon Number One: No.

[World] Granny Selling Melons: There’re so many men in the world, Chu Xi, what’s troubling you? Even if you wanted to find a popular figure, did you have to choose him? What’s so good about him besides his high level?

[World] I’m Super Cute: Yeah, why choose Number One Brother? I can be your choice too!

[World] Number One Brother: No, what’s wrong with me? What do you mean? Don’t forget, I’m Number One Brother!!

Number One Brother stirred up chaos in the world chat.

Chuzheng stopped talking and searched for the ID given by Number One Brother.

The other party was not online.

Chuzheng tried to send a private message, but as they were not friends, she couldn’t chat and could only send a friend request.

However, she was rejected in three seconds.

Instant rejection!

Chuzheng: “…” Aren’t you offline? What are you doing invisible!

Number One Brother seemed to have great foresight.

Chuzheng labeled Number One Brother’s name and submitted the friend request again.

[Player Jiang Liang has accepted your friend request]

The private chat window popped up directly, and as soon as Chuzheng glanced at that line, the other party sent her a message.

[Private chat] Jiang Liang: What do you want I’m busy keep it short no BS

There was not a single punctuation mark, giving off an aura of being too busy to waste time.

[Private chat] Richest Tycoon Number One: Are you a hacker?

It took nearly a minute for the other side to reply.

[Private chat] Jiang Liang: What do you want

[Private chat] Richest Tycoon Number One: Hack an account.

[Private chat] Jiang Liang: …

[Private chat] Jiang Liang: I’m not so hard up for cash to do something like that.

[Private chat] Richest Tycoon Number One: Name your price.

[Private chat] Jiang Liang: It’s not about the money,

[Private chat] Richest Tycoon Number One: How much money, name it.

[Private chat] Jiang Liang: …

Jiang Liang blocked Chuzheng.

What goes around comes around; nobody is spared by destiny.

Retribution came as quickly as a tornado.

“Bastard, see? There are things money can’t solve,” Chuzheng said to Bastard as an example.

[…] This isn’t a mission I posted, what’s it got to do with me?

King’s Account is playing dead.

–

Evil Dragon Valley.

The musician avatar under ‘Jiang Liang’ was surrounded by several players.

Jiang Liang was a musician, dressed in white robes, as if a banished immortal.

Even as a game character, it presented a visually distinctive appearance.

[Nearby] Phantom Chasing the Wind: Jiang Liang! Why did you suddenly attack us yesterday?

“`

[Nearby] Jiang Liang: I just can’t stand you guys.

[Nearby] Instant Kill: Damn it! Did we provoke you or what? Son of a bitch, we finally managed to guard this BOSS and it’s gone because of you!

[Nearby] Jiang Liang: Well, sorry about that.

His tone didn’t seem apologetic at all.

[Nearby] Phantom Chasing the Wind: Jiang Liang, don’t think we’re afraid of you just because you’re good at PK.

[Nearby] Jiang Liang: If I could kill you yesterday, I can kill you today, too.

Jiang Liang’s words completely enraged the players present, who rushed at him with their skills ready.

[World] Melon-selling Granny: Gossip, gossip, Jiang Liang is getting ganged up on in Evil Dragon Valley.

[World] Origin: Is he ganging up on others?

[World] Melon-selling Granny: No, Jiang Liang is the one getting ganged up on.

[World] Number One on Power Ranking: Impossible, you’re spreading fake news.

[World] I’m Super Cute: That calamity is getting ganged up on?

[World] Log In As Soon As Class Ends: It’s normal for him to get ganged up on, isn’t it? With that arrogant and haughty attitude of his, who wouldn’t want to hit him?

[World] Melon-selling Granny: If you don’t come to the rescue soon, Number One, Jiang Liang is going to get killed.

When Number One Brother arrived at Evil Dragon Valley, Jiang Liang was already lying on the ground.

A few players were standing by his corpse.

The first thing Number One Brother saw, though, was Chuzheng standing not too far away.

Chuzheng was still dressed in the ‘Phoenix Ceremony’ outfit, standing on a rock with arms crossed over her chest, looking down from above.

She had the bearing of an emperor patrolling her own territory.

[Private Chat] Number One on Power Ranking: What happened?

Number One Brother private messaged Jiang Liang.

[Private Chat] Jiang Liang: That woman just popped out of nowhere.

[Private Chat] Number One on Power Ranking: But that doesn’t mean you should get ganged up on, right?

Number One Brother still had a lot of faith in Jiang Liang.

[Private Chat] Jiang Liang: She used a prop and I wasn’t paying attention.

[Private Chat] Number One on Power Ranking: …

[Private Chat] Number One on Power Ranking: Wasn’t she looking for you? How did it turn into this?

[Private Chat] Jiang Liang: She asked me to hack an account, isn’t that an insult?

[Private Chat] Number One on Power Ranking: If there’s money to be made, that’s all that matters, right? She’s loaded, you…

[Private Chat] Jiang Liang: I won’t stoop to such low-level tactics.

[Private Chat] Number One on Power Ranking: So she attacked you just because of that?

For some reason, Number One Brother felt it was something the girl could do.

After Number One Brother finished exchanging messages with Jiang Liang, more and more players started to arrive steadily.

With players gathering in Evil Dragon Valley, the nearby channel was bustling and the messages were flashing so fast they were dizzying.

Most of the chatter was about celebrating the great joy of Jiang Liang being ganged up on.

Jiang Liang was arrogant and haughty in the game, and sometimes he liked to provoke others even if they did nothing to him, triggering fights.

The thing was, Jiang Liang had been dominating the PK ranking as the top player for years.

Number One Brother was also in the top ten, though his ranking was very unstable, sometimes shooting up to the top three, sometimes barely hanging onto the tail end of the top ten.

But he had never dropped out of it.

Those who had been irritated by Jiang Liang, they couldn’t beat him in a fight or outdo him in a quarrel, so they just had to swallow their anger.

Now that Jiang Liang was being ganged up on, how could his ‘foes’ not be thrilled?

[Nearby] Undying Myth: Who here is an Apothecary? Revive him, I want to kill him myself!

[Nearby] Instant Kill: No use, he’s been death-locked.

[Nearby] Undying Myth: Who did it? Rich enough to burn money?

Such items needed to be purchased with real money.

[Nearby] Instant Kill: Number One Tycoon.

Instant Kill and those few players who ganged up on Jiang Liang were initially losing, but then a female player suddenly appeared and started throwing items, which allowed them to take Jiang Liang down together.

Jiang Liang sure had a lot of enemies.

[Nearby] Undying Myth: Who’s Number One Tycoon? Say the name.

[Nearby] Phantom Chasing the Wind: That’s the name, Number One Tycoon.

[Nearby] Undying Myth: …
