I just thought of something, why didn't the author create an item that makes 2 people treated as one or something so that exp won't be split and it would be treated as if the MC is still solo .. because otherwise we as the readers just think of yiyi as a burden..
there was definitely a workaround, so does the author like yiyi or hate her? 🤣 clearly he wants her around , but at this rate readers are hating on her because she's depriving the MC of exp/merit/titles .. come on author use your head a little.
