Keyboard Immortal-Chapter 2816: Turning Tables

“I’m not a fool. I've noticed how you disappear each time a universal deity appears. There’s no way I’d talk about you in front of them.” Zu An looked at Mi Li with confusion. “Are you on bad terms with the universal deities? Otherwise, why are you afraid of catching their notice?”

Mi Li harrumphed. “How can I defy the universal deities? I just wanted to avoid trouble.”

“Considering how they can read my mind and memories, I’m surprised that the universal deities never noticed you or the Keyboard System.”

“You have to thank that Keyboard System of yours. It partially shielded you from the universal deities’ probing, allowing you to retain some secrets before them.”

Zu An was surprised. The Keyboard System can even fool universal deities? I wonder who created it.

“Where did you hide in the Deity of Death’s trial world? I was worried that you’d get killed by the laws.”

“I was hiding in the Tai’e Sword. Many universal deities were observing that trial world, so even the Keyboard System dared not make an appearance. Otherwise, they might have detected its existence while collecting Rage points. Rage points are soul pulsations, after all.”

Zu An narrowed his eyes. “You’re very familiar with the Keyboard System.”

“Of course. I'm contracted with you.” Mi Li yawned. “You’re smart to have divided Death’s authority into multiple parts. Otherwise, the other universal deities would have killed you, even if you had the backing of Chaos and Enigma, as well as Memory.”

“Come to think of it, I'm quite fated with Death.” Zu An thought about how he had become the master of the Netherworld across different timelines. “Now that Death’s authority is fragmented, does it mean there will never be a new Deity of Death?”

“Once you grow strong enough, you can recollect the other pieces of Death’s authority and become the new Deity of Death,” Mi Li replied with a smile. “It just so happens that the other three pieces are with those women, and they're on good terms with you. On that note, I can’t believe you didn’t score Tingxue despite spending so much time with her in the trial world. The Keyboard System must be blind to label you ‘Love Sage’.”

Zu An was speechless. He hadn’t expected Mi Li to even know about his title. He really had no secrets in front of her.

“Tingxue appears to lack emotions, but she has a strong will. We might be on good terms, but we’re lacking something. It feels like our relationship may unravel if I take a step forward.”

“Tsk. You were just too busy indulging in Firework and Guo Fu’s bodies. That Guo Fu looked a lot like Huang Rong when she was younger. No wonder you worked so hard plowing her.”

“...”

“There’s Isabella as well. It can’t be more obvious that she has maxed out goodwill for you. You can practically see hearts in her eyes. Yet you didn’t take the opportunity to push her down.”

Zu An was annoyed. “It was already a struggle to find a way out of that godforsaken trial. I didn’t have the energy to be thinking about all these things.”

“Was it?” Mi Li looked at him with an ambiguous smile, her feet shaking provocatively. It was so irritating that Zu An wanted to pull her feet down. “Back to the topic. Instead of recombining Death’s authority, you can also use your half of Death’s authority to forge your own path. You might just become a new universal deity.”

Zu An was surprised. “I can become a new universal deity that isn’t the Deity of Death?”

“Of course. Each authority symbolizes a divine jurisdiction. It’s like a ticket to the dining table, though in your current state, you’re only qualified to stand next to the table. Whether you can secure a seat and which seat you’ll get depends on how you grow in the future,” Mi Li replied.

Zu An fell silent. He began pondering his path for the first time. Are there still incomplete paths in the Myriad Worlds that no universal deities have reached the end of?

Mi Li suddenly yawned. “That’s all for now. Your little girlfriend is here. I’ll go back to sleep, lest I hear annoying clapping sounds.”

She vanished into thin air. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

Right after, someone knocked on the door before gently pushing it open. A woman with voluptuous legs strutted in. “Sir, I’m here to thank you for saving my life.”

Zu An’s jaws dropped. The one who had entered the room wasn’t Firework but Dreamland’s guard captain, Yani. He still remembered how Yani had valiantly struck down a Death envoy and blasted a hole in the sky.

However, he quickly snapped out of his daze and asked, “Firework, what are you doing?”

Yani was confused. “Sir, what are you saying? I’m Yani.”

“Stop playing.” Zu An harrumphed.

Yani chuckled. “Tsk, how boring. Do you not like me in this form? I guess you prefer smaller girls. Lolicon!”

“That’s slander!” Zu An was irritated. “What are you up to?”

Yani casually sat down beside him and wrapped her hand around his neck. “I wasn’t able to show you the real me because my supernatural powers were sealed in the trial world. Now that I've regained my powers, it’s only right for me to let you have a taste of it.”

Zu An was speechless.

Before he could process what was going on, Yani grabbed his shoulder and pushed him down onto the bed. She towered over him, her beautiful face exuding valiance and charisma. Her shirt button began to groan due to her movements, and it looked as if it could snap at any moment. “Do you prefer the coy Firework, or the valiant Yani?”

“Aren’t they both you?” Zu An found this situation utterly ridiculous. Those two women felt completely unrelated to each other, yet he knew that they were both the same person.

“If you like Yani more, I’ll accompany you more as her in the future,” Yani whispered into his ear, teasing him.

Zu An was mesmerized. Unlike the bubbly Firework, Yani resembled a general who had conquered the battlefield. Her disposition, the sensations from her body, and even her fragrance felt completely different.

He felt an urge to protect Firework, but when it came to Yani, he felt a desire to conquer her.

“I can feel it. You’re moved.” Yani looked at him with a mischievous grin.

Zu An flipped over and pinned her beneath him. “You aren’t going to be on top of me.”

“Hmph. The trial world is one thing, but do you think you can defeat me here?” Yani’s eyes gleamed with pride. She wrapped her legs tightly around Zu An and flipped him over, pinning him down beneath her.

“???”

“...”

Fighting sounds filled the room as they competed for supremacy.

Some time later, Yani suddenly exclaimed, “Hold on! How did you suddenly become so strong?”

Zu An looked down on Yani from above in glee. His Love Sage title surprisingly came in handy here—reduces 70% damage from women! Furthermore, Yani had held back to avoid hurting him, so that gave him a chance to stage a comeback.
