"Wifey?"

"Tsk, try again."

"Mistress?'

"Tsk, wrong."

"Paramour?"

"You trolling me?"

"Miss dark-skinned!"

The other party paused briefly, before erupting, "Who're you calling dark..."

Was there even a need to guess? When Li Yi saw how vulgarly the message was phrased, he immediately knew who the other party was.

Li Yi cheekily yawned, "Oh Jiaojiao, why haven't you been coming on lately, I haven't seen you in quite a few days."

Jiaojiao did not answer. It seems like she was still angry.

Li Yi sighed, "I'm no longer part of the Dark Empire Guild."

"I know, that's why I came over to ask you about it." Jiaojiao started speaking again.

"One, there's someone forcing me to leave. Two, I don't feel like staying there anymore."

Jiaojiao paused once more, before saying, "I left as well."

"It's not because of me is it?" Li Yi chuckled.

"Tsk, of course not." Jiaojiao spat out, she continued with a faint tone, "I've already sent the equipment from last time to your inbox. The reason for my visit this time around is just to tell you that it was great that I was able to meet you. You... You're probably considered the first friend I've met here, I think."

"... You're going to stop playing?" Even though he already knew this from the start, Li Yi still felt terrible.

"Can't say, sigh."

Both parties fell silent.

Li Yi asked, "Why are you stopping, mind telling me the reason?"

Jiaojiao did not answer.

Despite how she presents herself as a loudmouthed tomboy, it was no easy task if you were trying to pry a secret out of her lips.

If it was his past life, Li Yi would still have the confidence in obtaining an answer from her, but now, their friendship had just started budding. For Jiaojiao to start pouring her heart out at a random stranger, was that even possible?

"Let's change the subject, it's getting tiring. I came over to have some fun, not to talk about such bothersome things." Jiaojiao took a deep breath and recomposed herself, she asked in a relaxed tone, "If I were to create a guild, would you dare to join?"

Li Yi laughed, "If you dare to recruit me then I'd dare to join."

Jiaojiao started to chuckle as well, but then started to sigh, "Scratch that idea, I don't think I have the mental strength to play this game..."

"You don't need to come on just to play. If you have time you can also come on and chat."

"That's not a bad idea, let me think about it. Hehe, I still haven't created the guild yet."

Li Yi started to sweat.

After a short while, Li Yi received the System Notification, [Player Invincible Jiaojiao has invited you to join Little Drunk Cat Guild.]

"This... What the hell is this?"

"Hmph, do you dare to join?"

"As long as you don't suddenly pull an MIA, then I'll join."

"Alright, I won't pull an MIA, but you can't leave the guild."

"Alright, I pledge to Jiaojiao that I will never leave the guild."

"Hahahahahaha..."

[Li Yi agreed to join the guild.]

"No worries, no worries, I won't try to force your ass to leave the guild. Hmm, let's give you a position for now."

System Notification: [Invincible Jiaojiao has promoted you to Vice Guild Master]

At that point, Li Yi did not know whether to laugh or cry.

Jiaojiao did not know how much potential Li Yi had. However, if she found out that someone that various major guilds desperately tried and failed to recruit just casually joined her guild, he did not know what she would think.

"Come over and help me shoot a load."

"Do I need a condom?"

"F*ck off!"

...

After beating Heart of the Fire, Jiaojiao went offline.

Li Yi sent a guild invite to Chen Yang and he immediately accepted. After that, Li Yi gave him the authority to recruit and kick out members.

"Recruit more people."

"Did you create this guild?"

"Nope, it's Invincible Jiaojiao's, you remember her, right? She created it."

"You trying to win her fancy?"

"None of your f*cking business, remember to recruit more people." Li Yi went offline after he finished delegating that task.

Chen Yang then sent a guild invite to Fire Ice and gave her the authority to recruit members.

"It's our personal guild, go recruit some people."

"Oh, is Dark Wing in there?"

"Of course he is, he was the one who asked me to add you." When Fatty said this line, he felt a bit sour in his heart.

"Oh, alright, I'll go and recruit people."

Within just a day, the guild member count went up to 28 people. Out of the members, Li Yi recruited 1 member, Chen Yang recruited 1 member, and the rest were all recruited by Fire Ice.

Three Goat Pig Pig and company did not join the guild. The reason for that was simple, the guild that Jiaojiao created did not promise any guild benefits and Li Yi never did promise to lead parties into dungeons. After thinking long and hard, they felt that this guild did not have a great future, so they decided to head elsewhere.

There was not even a single guild rule. Not just Three Goat Pig Pig and company, even the Vice Guild Master Li Yi was skeptical about the future of a guild like this...

However, he had to give it up for Fire Ice. With her own connections, she managed to rope in all her close girlfriends. This may also be a blessing in disguise, since excluding Li Yi and Chen Yang, this entire guild consisted only by females.

On the second day, when Jiaojiao took some time off to come online, she was ecstatic when she saw a huge increase in the number of members. When she found out that this was all the work of Fire Ice, she immediately gave Fire Ice the title Leader of the Legion of Beauties, tasking her to specifically recruit chicks...

Chen Yang, not wanting to be outmatched, had his underlings all leave their respective guilds to join Little Drunk Cats. He even gave himself the title Leader of the Legion of Gentlemen.

The guild started growing larger and started becoming more and more active. However, even when the member count reached the 40s, the Guild Master Jiaojiao was constantly nowhere to be seen, whereas the Vice Guild Master Li Yi was still idling about...

Of course, there were also plenty of people who just left as soon as they joined. For a guild like this that did not offer any benefits, it was not easy to keep the guild members on board.

Chen Yang said, "Brother Yi, let's bring everyone down to a Party-level Instance Dungeon, if we don't have any activities, it's going to be hard to make the members stay."

"Let's do it after we settle down."

Leaving and joining, joining and leaving, these members had Chen Yang and Fire Ice working their heads off trying to manage everything. On the other hand, all this while, Li Yi was just solo grinding 5-man dungeons and completing quests, seemingly carefree and relaxed.

"Shouldn't you two be the Guild Master and Vice Guild Master?"

More than one guild member had already brought this up in suspicion. In their eyes, Chen Yang and Fire Ice were much more qualified to lead the guild.

On the sixth day after the Little Drunk Cats was created, the guild member count stabilized at 38 players. With that, Li Yi finally started to take action.

He opened the guild inventory and placed all of the equipment he had gathered over the past few days inside. There were easily more than two hundred pieces of equipment from all Quality tiers, stunning the members completely.

Li Yi had also set up his own legion, called the Legion of Honor. He declared that anyone who contributes to the guild can receive Guild Points. Once they accumulated enough Guild Points, they could then use the Guild Inventory and select any equipment as they please.

Fire Ice and Chen Yang, alongside other members who helped in the recruitment, were all rewarded by Li Yi a total of 500 to 3000 points each.

500 points were worth one piece of blue-colored equipment, 1000 points were worth one piece of green-colored equipment, and 3000 points was worth one piece of gold-colored equipment.

The entire guild went crazy...

Now, they finally understood who was truly the Guild Master here. Li Yi's position in their hearts went from 0 to 100 real quick. In order to get Guild Points, everyone was immediately motivated once more.

There was no need to set a rule forcing everyone to participate whenever there was a raid. He just straight up prepared an inventory full of good equipment up for grabs. If you wanted to get the equipment, then show some results.

"Brother Yi, you win..."

"Go recruit more people then."

Li Yi patted Fatty on the back, awarding him another 1000 Guild Points.

...

Li Yi's red name status finally disappeared. He immediately got on his horse and rushed towards the White Elves' Major city, the Silver Moon Celestial Capital.

The reason he went to the Silver Moon Celestial Capital was to find one person.

When the distance between two players was too big, they would not be able to add each other as friends and could not communicate with one another. Only when the two parties move closer together, can they manage to search up the other party's name, allowing them to make contact.

The silver-white theme of the Elves' capital was much more quaint and chic as compared to Shattered Frost City. Standing at the Silver Moon Celestial Capital's Plaza, Li Yi searched up the name Pretty Good Mood.

The search bar lit up.

'Luckily he's online...'

Pretty Good Mood was the name of a White Elf Contract Summoner. At this point in time, this name was not that famous, but in the later periods of the game, he would become a household name.

This was because he would eventually become one of the best commanders in Pantheon.

Every single party that he had led had had high praises for his abilities as a commander. No matter if it was exploring a new dungeon or going to a regular dungeon, his battle tactics had ensured that his party would always get the best rewards with the least casualties.

The reason Li Yi could command so well was only due to his eight years of experience playing the game in his past life. Of course, given that if he wanted to be a great commander, his eight years of experience would definitely propel him to one of the top commanders in the game.

However, every time they go into battle, he would have to shout with all his might and rage because his party members made mistakes. This caused his blood pressure to run high and even causing indigestion in real life...

Pretty Good Mood had a slogan that had become very vintage.

"If you're a tiger, then you shouldn't be commanding a team of pigs. They'll only make you rage..."

Li Yi sent Pretty Good Mood a private message, "Sorry to bother you, but I heard you were looking for a Contract of Fire?"

"You have it? Name a price." Pretty Good Mood replied almost instantaneously.

"1000 Gold Coins."

Pretty Good Mood immediately fell silent.

At that point in time, he could not fork out that amount of money.

Contract Summons was a bit special. The method of acquiring pets was no different from an archer, it required you to personally capture them. Furthermore, the requirements when capturing pets of different types were even harsher than an archer. For example, if you wanted to capture a Fire Pet, you will first need to learn the Contract of Fire; to capture a Water Pet, you need to learn the Contract of Water.

Due to the ability to be able to pick their pets, a Contract Summoner has a slight edge over the other two paths. In addition, the drop rates set by the system for Contract Skill Tomes were extremely low, causing this class to constantly be viewed as oddly lacking in skills.

In his past life, Pretty Good Mood had accepted countless interviews. A thing of the past that he had always brought up the most was that back when he just entered Pantheon and did not know much about the game.

Due to not being able to afford the Contract of Fire, he did not manage to get his own pet before level 30. Hence, when he went to dungeons, no one wanted to party with him; when he went to guilds, no one wanted to accept him. It was extremely difficult for him from a social aspect. That was also the reason that "forced" him to become a party commander...

It started with casual parties, then, as his parties continually got wiped, his skills continually increased. At the end of the day, his name started spreading and he was noticed by the God Creator Guild. Only after accepting their guild invite, his name started to spread like wildfire. That was the story of his journey in this game.

Before he reached Level 30, this great commander was at his lowest. Even if it was just 100 Gold Coins, he would not have been able to afford it, much less 1000 Gold Coins.

"Can you lower the price a bit..." Pretty Good Mood stayed silent for nearly half a day, before finally squeezing out that line.

"Contract Summoning Skill Tomes have really low drop rates, my price is already considered very low."

As compared to the Contract Summoning Skill Tomes in the Auction House with prices of more than 5000 Gold Coins that would not even budge, Li Yi's price was definitely much lower.

Pretty Good Mood fell silent once more for nearly half a day, before forcing out a line, "Can you wait a few days?"

"I can't." Li Yi mercilessly denied him.
