At this mont, Peng Peng had a change of heart.
In the past, whether in life or in gas, he was always a small, invisible figure.
Whenever faced with difficulties, Peng Peng's first instinct was always to run away.
Because running away was the easiest option.
Just like when he saw Tianheng ruthlessly killing Little Bug earlier. Although he wanted to intervene, he didn't dare to.
So, Peng Peng always felt useless, like he couldn't accomplish anything.
But after this incident, Peng Peng's perspective shifted.
He realized that as long as he held on to a firm belief, no matter how hard it was, he would find a way to achieve it.
Just like how he sought revenge for Little Bug.
In the past, he would have dismissed such a goal as impossible.
How could an ordinary player like him even dream of opposing the top guild in the ga?
Yet, through his own efforts, he actually made it happen!
Granted, he did have a lot of help.
But regardless, he had successfully avenged Little Bug.
And he even humiliated those in the guild who had bullied him.
"Then, let's set another goal!"
"My next goal is... to et Little Bug again!"
Earlier, when 007 rged with Little Bug, he had looked over at Peng Peng.
That was when Peng Peng knew—Little Bug was still there.
Unfortunately, Peng Peng hadn't been able to speak with him.
But this thought alone beca his new motivation to keep playing.
He wanted to grow stronger and et Little Bug again.
Who knew? Maybe, just like this ti, he could help Little Bug again in the future.
With this determination, Peng Peng announced to his livestream viewers:
"Alright, everyone, I'm starting a guild!"
"It's called the Demon Lord's Reserve Squad, and we're recruiting players who love HIM and the... Death Knight."
"You've seen it yourselves—I have these resources behind . The guild will develop quickly."
"And we don't even need to build our own base; we just need to renovate this place."
"We can even enjoy the full-ti attention of the top guild's players~"
"So, if you're interested, join up fast!"
Peng Peng's move was a classic case of seizing the nest of others.
One had to admit, Peng Peng truly understood the art of playful cruelty. He was even adept at adapting it to the situation.
The Eternal Guild mbers already despised him to their core.
If they saw Peng Peng taking over their territory and using their resources to grow his own guild...
They'd probably be so enraged they'd faint.
And once Peng Peng beca the guild leader, he'd likely make a daily habit of mocking them.
Being tornted by HIM was bad enough, but how could the Eternal Guild players endure being ridiculed by one of their own forr underlings and traitors?
As soon as the Eternal Guild players heard Peng Peng's words, a flurry of colorful curses erupted from their side.
The louder they cursed, the wider Peng Peng grinned.
Ah, this was the definition of impotent rage.
anwhile, so viewers in the livestream didn't quite understand Peng Peng's actions.
"Why does it feel like this strear has a deep vendetta against the Eternal Guild?"
"Demon Lord's Reserve Squad? I've never seen soone simp for monsters like this before. Impressive…"
"What do you an, simp for monsters? Plenty of people like HIM, alright? Nothing wrong with it."
"Let's not forget people are allowed to like villains, thanks."
"Is it just , or is there sothing special about Peng Peng's connection with HIM and the Death Knight?"
"Agreed. Did you see how he charged in just now? And HIM didn't attack him!"
"Rumor has it that the strear was the one who leaked the Eternal Guild's base location!"
"Hiss... That makes sense! Wait for , strear! I'm switching sides—cough, I an, pledging allegiance!!"
"So, you're saying HIM won't kill the strear or his guild mbers?! Damn! I'm in!!"
"..."
Although so players disapproved of Peng Peng rallying HIM and Death Knight enthusiasts into a guild...
None of them dared to underestimate him.
They had all witnessed how Peng Peng had charged in, and HIM hadn't lifted a finger against him.
This was the second ti a player had t HIM without being killed—the first being those who betrayed the Eternal Guild by revealing their base coordinates. (Steve: Thank you, and no need to ntion it.)
And the Death Knight seed to have sothing to say, which also appeared connected to Peng Peng.
With various rumors spreading, players quickly pieced things together: Peng Peng was indeed the one who leaked the Eternal Guild's coordinates.
All these clues made people speculate.
Many HIM and Death Knight enthusiasts found themselves tempted to join.
With access to the top guild's resources and the protection of HIM and the Death Knight, wouldn't they beco unstoppable in-ga?
Because of these developnts, other guilds eyeing the resources held back.
Initially, they thought stealing from a lone player like Peng Peng would be easy.
But considering his ties to HIM, and seeing the defeated faces of the Eternal Guild mbers...
They abandoned the idea.
They couldn't afford to provoke HIM, let alone those close to him.
The Eternal Guild's plight was a stark reminder: ss with HIM's subordinates, and suffer the consequences.
After ending his livestream, Peng Peng got to work refurbishing the guild base.
Just days ago, he'd never have imagined that this place would be his.

In the forest next to the Eternal Guild's base...
"Master!! Master!! Master!!! I missed you so much!!! Prprprprpr!"
007's drooping tail suddenly shot up, wagging so fast it was like a propeller.
He stuck out his tongue and started licking Xu Yuan's face.
Xu Yuan quickly pinched the wolf's snout.
Even though he knew it was Little Bug's personality in control, it was still 007's body.
Having 007 lick him like this was a bit too much...
The mont Xu Yuan grabbed 007's snout, 007 seed to snap out of it.
He imdiately knelt down, as if arguing with himself.
"You must not disrespect our king!"
"Hmph! I always did it like this. It's your fault, you big oaf! The master doesn't like anymore! Waaah!!"
"But we're sharing a body now! We can't behave this way! Understood?"
"No! No! I refuse! I want to lick the master's face! Prprprpr!"
"..."
Watching 007 switch from drooping tail to furious wagging...
From steady eyes to wide, puppy-dog eyes...
Xu Yuan couldn't help but facepalm.
"Isn't this going to give you a split personality?…"
Just then, a sinister voice suddenly echoed in his mind.
"They dared offend you—kill them!"
Xu Yuan's expression instantly turned murderous.
For a brief mont, he genuinely wanted to kill 007.
But the feeling faded as quickly as it ca.
"What... What's happening to ?…"
The voice had been his own, but darker, more ruthless.
In that mont, it was as if he had been possessed.
Thankfully, he snapped out of it quickly.
Otherwise, 007 might have truly been in danger.
007 noticed sothing was off with Xu Yuan.
He stopped bickering with Little Bug and lowered his head, worried that their antics had angered Xu Yuan.
Seeing this, Xu Yuan took a deep breath and said calmly:
"Get up."
007 looked up at him. Only after confirming Xu Yuan's expression had softened did he slowly stand.
Little Bug, anwhile, kept silent out of fear.
After rising, 007 seed hesitant, like he had sothing to say but was too afraid to speak.
Xu Yuan could already guess what was on his mind.
"Speak."
007 hesitated for a long mont before finally asking.
"My king…"
"May I... stay by your side from now on?"
He feared being sent away again. Leaving Xu Yuan's side last ti had led to too many painful experiences.
All he wanted now was to remain with him at all tis.
Xu Yuan thought for a mont before opening the system panel.
As soon as he did, several ssages popped up.
