You Yu didn’t ask any questions and found Hengxin Xu Sanduo among a pile of live link-up requests.
In no time, the screen split into two sides—You Yu on the left, Xu Sanduo on the right.
Xu Sanduo had a kind, round bun-shaped face. ”Hello Xiaoyu, I’ve long heard of your great name.”
You Yu greeted her back with a smile. “Hello, Brother Sanduo.”
Xu Sanduo said, “Brother Evan asked me to do a PK Battle with you.”
You Yu agreed without a second thought. ”Sure.”
The moment the PK Bar opened, our purple bar was instantly crushed down to just one-third.
Then, a blue light flashed across the opposing screen.
【Evan gifted Xu Sanduo Glow Stick ×9999】(999,900 Meow Coins) ×2 ×3… ×8 ×9 ×10!
When Xu Sanduo smiled, the flesh on his cheeks squeezed his eyes into slits. “Thank you, Brother Evan, for ten sets of 9999 Glow Sticks! Brothers, this week’s Weekly Star is Glow Sticks—everyone, send some Glow Sticks!”
During PK Battles, the public chat screen is usually displayed next to the streamer’s face so everyone can see it, giving those who send gifts more prestige.
If everyone else could see it, You Yu could see it even more clearly. She watched the gifts floating by without any change in her expression or movements.
She was only thinking: if it helped him vent his anger, it didn’t really matter.
Suddenly, a golden light flashed across the public chat screen.
【Walking with God activated Emperor】
【Yibiao Tangtang: Holy crap.】
【I Don’t Like Eating Tomatoes: ??】
【Activated Emperor?】
【Who is this?】
【Upgrading to Emperor on a blank account?】
【Never spent anything before.】
【Walking with God renewed Emperor x3】
On Maoya, activating Emperor costs 120k, with one free renewal on first activation, and each renewal after that costs 30k.
You Yu’s mouth fell slightly open, her eyes widening.
An impossible thought rose from the bottom of her heart, and she called out tentatively, “Brother Shen?”
To confirm it was real.
She moved her mouse and checked the profile of the account that had activated Emperor. The avatar was one she knew all too well—a book. Only one follow, no history of badge records, account level 1. This was a completely brand-new account.
After being stunned for a long while, You Yu finally believed it—this person had come only for her.
But how could that possibly be…
In an instant, a wave of bittersweet emotion filled her heart and welled up in her eyes.
【Walking with God gifted Xiaoyu Magic Book ×999】(98,901,000 Meow Coins)
【Walking with God: Long time no see, Xiaoyu.】
The familiar words were like an old friend you hadn’t seen in ages, greeting you.
Xu Sanduo’s hoarse, desperate vote-soliciting faded into the distance in her ears. She could only see that single line of text before her.
She tried her hardest to smile and say “long time no see” to him, but the moment the words left her mouth, she broke down sobbing.
Covering her mouth, she whimpered, “Brother Shen…”
【Walking with God: Mm (^_^)】
Evan entered the live stream room.
【Evan: What are you crying about this time?】
An idea flashed through her mind.
Eyes rimmed red, she accused, “Brother Shen, Evan is bullying me. He hit me.”
【Evan: ?】
【Walking with God: It was Evan who told me you’d come back to streaming.】
“Then why did he still come hit me?”
【Evan: Hey, can’t you take a hint? If you hadn’t run out of money, would you have come back to streaming?】
【Evan: Maoya barely has anyone who can go up against Brother Shen in the ring. If I don’t descend into hell, who will?】
【Evan: Do you even have a conscience?】
You Yu wiped her tears and stuck her tongue out at him. “So what? If you’ve got the guts, come hit me.”
【Evan: ??】
Evan immediately rushed into Xu Sanduo’s Live Stream Room and started smashing gifts like crazy.
【Evan sent Xu Sanduo Glow Stick x9999】(999,900) x2 x3… x8 x9 x10!
Xu Sanduo thanked Evan with a long face. “Brother Evan, you’re basically asking me to get beaten here. I’ve been streaming this long and I’ve never been hit by a 999 Magic Book before.”
【Evan: How about I switch over and take the beating instead?】
The fat on Xu Sanduo’s face instantly lifted. “No no no, thank you, bro, for the ten sets of 9999 Glow Sticks!! Bros, San can still eat, San hasn’t lost favor yet!”
【Evan sent Xu Sanduo Treasure Map x1】(5,000,000 Meow Coins) x1 x2 x3… x14 x15 x16!
“Whoa, thank you, Brother Evan, for the 14, 15, 16 Treasure Map combo. Thank you, Brother Evan.”
With that, she pulled out a gong and drum from who knows where, and with a “CLANG,” the huge sound made everyone jump.
“Thank you, Brother Evan, for the sixteen Treasure Maps! It’s New Year, it’s New Year! Thank you, bro, for the Treasure Maps!”
【Walking with God renewed Emperor x3】
【Walking with God renewed Emperor x3】
【Walking with God renewed Emperor x4】
Although renewals on Maoya don’t appear on the banner overhead, renewals at Duke level and above are displayed across the entire Maoya Public Chat Screen.
“Walking with God renewed Emperor x3 for Drunken Fish”—the golden renewal instantly flooded every Live Stream Room’s screen.
“Brother Evan, the other side renewed, and they renewed ten Emperors. Brother Evan, save me, save me!”
【Evan: I’ve still got ten in my inventory. I’ll finish them off and be done with it.】
Xu Sanduo immediately stopped wailing and grinned. “Even ten, I won’t complain. Your San can take one more bite and then get beaten to death.”
【Evan: Heh.】
【???】
【Kid, you’re really eating and taking, huh】
【And now you’re complaining?】
【Brother Evan has truly spoiled this Fatty thoroughly】
“Brother who sent the Glow Sticks, don’t click Treasure Maps. This week’s Weekly Star Glow Sticks—today is the last day of the week, Sunday. Help me defend my tower, bro.”
【Now he’s being picky】
【Big bro, just eat whatever he sends】
【Don’t be a picky eater】
【Evan sent Xu Sanduo Glow Stick x9999】(999,900 Meow Coins)… x95 x96 x97 x98 x99 x100!
“Thank you, bro, for the hundred-set Glow Stick combo. My bro is awesome!!! Thank you, Brother Evan!”
【Brother Evan really spoils Fatty】
【Holy crap】
【He’s here, he’s here, that man is here】
【】
【Wah wah wah wah wah wah wah wah】
【Thank you, Brother Evan】
【Thank you, big bro】
【I’ve eaten until I’m stuffed, stuffed to bursting】
The PK Bar instantly jumped to 99,955,000 Meow Coins versus 170,000,000 Meow Coins.
You Yu said, “Brother Shen, Brother Evan shows you no mercy at all.”
Evan entered the Live Stream Room.
【Evan: Pulling a backstab?】
You Yu pouted. “Brother Shen, look at him—”
【Walking with God sent Magic Book x999】(98,901,000 Meow Coins) x2 x3!
You Yu: “Hehe, thanks to my Brother Shen for 3 sets of 999 Magic Books.”
[I Don’t Like Eating Tomatoes: Holy crap]
[Holy crap]
[That’s insane]
[Going all out like this right after arriving]
[Are you sure this isn’t some big shot’s alt account]
[Wah wah wah wah wah]
On the other side, Xu Sanduo had already given up struggling the moment he saw the 999 Magic Books.
Xu Sanduo: “I’m not fighting anymore. What’s the point? Who the hell covers your face with 999 Magic Books in a PK Battle? Four sets of them, no less. There’s no way to win against that.”
You Yu held her face in both hands, smiling like a cat that had stolen a fish. “Thank you, my Brother Shen.”
