Chapter 754 – Daddy is Here, Xiaomao

Shepherd glared at Miaomiao. But when he noticed the latter’s level, he averted his eyes and didn’t say anything. As such, both men entered the blue castle.

Behind the wall was a wide empty field. Aside from the Refinery building, stone walls, and the default castle, nothing else was in sight.

Miaomiao gazed at the refinery and thought of the beta test period. It was a unique experience as it changed the nature of the universe.

‘I wish this mine exist somewhere in my world. I can cultivate inside and breakthrough to the immortal stage in a day or two if I get to find one.’

While Miaomiao was gazing at the refinery, Shepherd turned around.

‘Give me whatever you want to give my leader. I’ll eat it.’

Miaomiao smirked, “You’re not worthy.”

‘Give it here so that I can finish the quest. I don’t have time to argue with you.’

“Bring Xiaomao here. If you eat it, you will die on the spot.”

“…”

Shepherd hesitated for a while. He closed his eyes as if he was concentrating on something. A moment later, he opened his eyes and snorted. Then, he rushed out of the castle, leaving Miaomiao alone.

After Shepherd was gone, Miaomiao took the opportunity to look around. He entered the castle.

In the lobby, portrait pictures of abducted NPCs were hung on the interior walls. On the pedestal in the middle of the lobby, a hologram showed the in-depth status of the MUNYA guild.

.

‘Oh? Xiaomao is a vessel of Chang’e? That’s interesting. If I remember correctly, he often went out with the orc siblings and had a gangbang fest with the dryads and mermaids. Does that mean he has a mermaid girlfriend in this life? Should I be expecting grandchildren soon?’

Miaomiao laughed. He couldn’t wait to talk to Xiaomao.

“OOOOOHHHHHH!!! Jiang Wei is out! Jiang Wei is out!! Xiaomao is in trouble!”

Suddenly, Pan Mei shouted in excitement.

Miaomiao had a bad feeling about this. He flew out of the castle and stood on top of the castle wall.

In front of the red castle, Jiang Wei had already come out, and he was chasing after Xiaomao in the sky. The catopus rode a flying sword, avoiding endless spear auras of the 9th-stage cultivator.

“DIE, REGRESSOR!” Jiang Wei bellowed.

Miaomiao clicked his tongue. He leaped from the wall, planning to help Xiaomao.

CLANK

His head banged at the transparent wall in front of him. Miaomiao looked up and noticed that a force field prevented him from going out.

‘Crap!’

Realizing that a hidden mechanism blocked him from going back out, Miaomiao racked his brain and came up with a plan. He sent a sound transmission to Shepherd and Andrew.

Miaomiao avoided communicating with Xiaomao as he was in the middle of a battle. Distracting him for a split second might spell a disaster.

‘You there! I’ve changed my quest. Come back and finish it, now!’

Shepherd was running back to the base with another NPC. He also replied.

‘Update it so that I can see. If you try something stupid, I’ll erase your existence!’

‘Pfft. I doubt you can cut karma. Anyway. I’m updating the quest right now.’

.

Angel of Victory Quest

A mysterious angel wants to participate in the battlefield. If you agree to allow him to fight alongside you, bring him to your castle. However, there is a catch. Your guild master needs to consume a gift from the mysterious angel.

Quest Objective: Accept the angel’s mysterious gift.

Quest Reward: The mysterious angel will participate in this battle as your ally.

Failure Condition: None.

.

Shepherd scanned the quest content and shouted in his mind.

‘Put whatever you want to give my master on the ground!’

Miaomiao searched his spatial ring and pulled out a Dao Stone, which he had obtained from the beta test war. After tossing it to the middle of the field, Miaomiao got back on the wall, waiting for the force field to be dispelled.

He looked at Xiaomao, who refused to retreat even though he couldn’t fight back.

‘What the hell are you doing?! You can’t possibly defeat a 9th-stage cultivator when you’re barely a proper 2nd-stage cultivator! When I was at 7th-stage for the first time, I couldn’t even kill Huang Hansheng and the other 9th-stage cultivators. A dumb cat like you will-‘

Before Miaomiao could finish cursing Xiaomao in his mind, Andrew finished building a structure.

RUMBLE

A Life Essence Pylon Tower appeared in the middle of the battlefield!

As if Xiaomao had been waiting for this, he wiggled his tentacles, and 2,000 SP was consumed. Then, the pylon tower transformed into an obelisk tower.

The obelisk tower shone in bright silver light. Then, it gathered Lightning Element Essence at the tip of the tower and released it.

“!!!”

A lightning bolt hit Jiang Wei, and the NPC fell from the sky. Then, the Obelisk’s light dimmed, recharging its energy.

Xiaomao didn’t retreat. He pulled out a long staff and pointed at Jiang Wei.

Black clouds gathered, brewing a storm.

BANG

Thunder roared and red lightning cracked within the cloud.

Miaomiao widened his eyes as he recognized the characteristics of the lightning. It was not a natural one.

“Tribulation Lightning?!”

BOOM

BOOM

A thousand red lightning bolts descended and struck Jiang Wei!

“IMPOSSIBLE!!”

Miaomiao could hear Jiang Wei’s scream from afar. He also heard the female commentator’s cracked voices.

“That’s a grand spell! From the log file, that spell is called Tribulation Lightning Storm!! It deals true damage at the designated targets a thousand times!”

“How did Xiaomao get this skill?! But a thousand times? What is Xiaomao’s spell mastery?”

“The system says 100%.”

“Oh, my god. Don’t grand spells and ultimate skills can only be acquired by completing story quests? I heard the first world and the second world are progressing very far in the story quests, but I never heard that the third world reaches this far.”

“Hahaha. Guild Leader Xiaomao isn’t the only one with the grand spell and ultimate skill. You’re overreacting, Mister Pan.”

Miaomiao raised his brows, impressed by Xiaomao’s protagonist moment. He couldn’t help but smile.

‘Damn, son. You worried me for a second there. So this is your plan all along.’

WHOOSH

While Miaomiao was watching the show, Shepherd dragged a new NPC into the castle wall and grabbed the Dao Stone on the ground.

DING

<Shepherd has completed your quest.>

<You have the obligation to help MUNYA Guild. All restrictions have been lifted, and you can join the battlefield.>

‘Alright!’

Miaomiao didn’t waste time. He flew out and beelined toward Jiang Wei, who was stunned by the consecutive tribulation lightning.

Xiaomao turned around as he sensed the incoming stranger. But before he could even utter a word of surprise, Miaomiao already activated his sword domain and unsheathed Killer Queen.

SWUA

Jiang Wei’s head flew off from his neck.

SWUA

SWUA

SWUA

A dozen sword afterimages flashed, and Jiang Wei’s body was cut to pieces.

After Jiang Wei was fallen, the battlefield was silent.

Miaomiao unsheathed Killer Queen. He smirked and stood still, waiting for his son to praise him.

A second later, Xiaomao’s brain.exe finally worked again. He wailed.

“NOOOOO!! MY PRECIOUS EXP! MY LEGENDARY DROPS! MY MONEY, MUNYA!!”

Miaomiao also fell over. He widened his eyes and stared at the crying cat.

“GIVE ME BACK MY EXP!! HOW COULD YOU STEAL MY KILL, MUNYA?! BAD NPC!”

“…”

The corner of Miaomiao’s mouth twitched. He complained in his mind.

‘Damn brat! I’m here to save your ass, but you’re complaining about your damn EXP? Just go back and use that Dao Stone I gave you! Jesus Christ.’

Miaomiao shook his head. He ignored Xiaomao and turned to the red castle.

WHOOSH

Liu Bei summoned another 9th-stage cultivator. This time, Wei Yan came out.

Wei Yan’s level was 999, which was equal to Miaomiao at the moment. He wore a Hahoe Mask and green scale armor, which emitted the aura of sky-grade artifacts. Even his halberd contained a spirit of a heaven-grade weapon.

This person was not someone that Xiaomao could fight!

Wei Yan flew out and came after Miaomiao instead of Xiaomao.

“Worthy opponent… KILL!”

Wei Yan summoned a dome and trapped Xiaomao, Miaomiao, and Andrew inside. The field changed into a desolate battlefield, and the obelisk disappeared.

Xiaomao and Andrew were astonished. The cat descended and pulled Andrew with him, then he rode to the flying sword to flee from the battle.

Wei Yan didn’t pursue Xiaomao. He roared and swung his halberd down.

Miaomiao’s sixth sense detected the special characteristic of the domain. He unsheathed Killer Queen and countered with his sword domain.

CLANK

CLANK

CLANK

The sounds of clashing weapons echoed throughout the battlefield as Miaomiao pushed back the invisible strikes of Wei Yan’s halberd. A hundred invisible weapons also collided around Xiaomao and Andrew.

Miaomiao narrowed his eyes, “Pole Arm Domain? So, you and I use the same Dao Domain, I see.”

Wei Yan grumbled, “Strong Domain. I, stronger!”

“If you’re so strong, don’t bother to attack them. Come at me, bitch!”

“You. Die!”

“No, you.”

.

Pan Mei stared at the monitor in disbelief. The combat level between Wei Yan and Miaomiao didn’t belong to the mortal realm.

However, the surprising development was not what shocked Pan Mei. It was the existence of Miaomiao.

He turned off his mic and pulled out his phone. He called the game moderator manager.

BEEP

The manager picked up the phone, and Pan Mei yelled.

“I don’t remember putting a high-level NPC on the battlefield. What the hell is that?! How come that thing exists?!”

‘I-I don’t know sir. We have no data on that NPC!’

“Remove it! It’s not supposed to exist!”

‘Y-Yes, sir!’

Pan Mei ended the call and reopened his mic. He looked at the co-commentator, who was captivated by the exchanges between Wei Yan and Miaomiao.

The fight was ongoing, but nobody could follow their movements. They were like anime protagonists, who blinked, teleported, and chased after each other in a dog fight at a breath-taking speed. Their trails and afterimages were the only things that they could see.

CLANK

Within a minute, the domain of Wei Yan was broken like shattering glasses. A grey-winged angel stood tall while the Hahoe-Mask warrior was on his knees. The latter looked at the angel and slowly took off his mask, revealing his satisfied smile.

“I. Warrior’s death. Thanks.”

Wei Yan dissipated into purple dust and transformed into a million purple butterflies.

As soon as the purple butterflies appeared, Pan Mei instantly recognized them.

“MAO MIAOMIAO!!”

Pan Mei’s voice got on the mic, and every spectator could hear it.

Miaomiao looked up and stared at the invisible flying camera. He smirked and flipped his middle finger.

“Come and get me, spoiled brat!”
