120: Bedroom Horror

Lin Du happily put away the fist of the underworld god, and then checked the beautiful boots that had dropped.

[Item]: Nine Heavens Spirit Cloud Boots

[Level]: Level 490

[Quality]: SS-Rank (Boutique)

[Special Effect]: 1. Wearer's Speed +100%, physical consumption when moving reduced by 50%, can briefly tread upon clouds.

2. Power of the Nine Heavens: Blocks 50% of external output for 3 seconds; simultaneously, the wearer's own Strength increases by 100%.

[Description]: A supreme divine boot forged by condensing the Power of the Nine Heavens.

The attributes of the Nine Heavens Spirit Cloud Boots were also excellent.

Even if they couldn't make it onto Yunlong City's Equipment Ranking List, they could still reach the level of a Quasi-Ranking List item... Although the number of items dropped by Death Waltz was small, the quality was very high.

Once these two pieces of equipment were put up for sale in the Merchant Guild later, Lin Du would definitely take another step closer to paying off his 320,000-year lifespan value debt.

The only thing worth worrying about was whether any player would dare to buy the equipment dropped by Death Waltz... "Night Ember, what are you holding?"

Behind Lin Du, Ning Fengya's cold voice suddenly rang out.

Lin Du was checking the equipment's attributes and hadn't noticed when Ning Fengya arrived.

"Brown-Eyed Beauty, why are you here?"

Ning Fengya stared intently at the Nine Heavens Spirit Cloud Boots in Lin Du's hand. "Did you just kill Death Waltz?"

The Nine Heavens Spirit Cloud Boots had dropped when The Twelve Constellations cleared a new map and killed a Saint Level Peak boss.

Ning Fengya had once viewed its attributes, so the Nine Heavens Spirit Cloud Boots were still fresh in her memory!

Since the Nine Heavens Spirit Cloud Boots were in Lin Du's hands, there was only one possibility: Death Waltz had been killed... Lin Du smiled and put away the Nine Heavens Spirit Cloud Boots.

"Brown-Eyed Beauty, stop joking."

"How could I possibly kill Death Waltz?"

Ning Fengya obviously didn't believe what Lin Du said; she had clearly felt Death Waltz's aura in the valley.

Death Waltz must have been here!

"Since you didn't kill Death Waltz, where did the boots in your hand come from?" Ning Fengya's gaze was sharp.

Lin Du put away the smile on his face and became serious.

"Brown-Eyed Beauty, you might not believe me if I tell you this!"

"Death Waltz really did come here just now, but his mom suddenly called him and told him to go home for dinner."

"If I said these boots were lost because Death Waltz ran too fast, would you believe it?"

...Escorted by Ning Fengya, Lin Du successfully returned to the Ye Clan Merchant Guild.

Ning Fengya remained silent the entire way.

Lin Du's joke not only failed to make her laugh but instead left her preoccupied.

Just as the two stepped into the Merchant Guild, a shocking piece of news suddenly exploded across the World Chat Channel in Yunlong City.

[Death Waltz]: Night Ember, you have excellent methods! If I, Death Waltz, don't kill you, I swear I'm not a man!

[Death Waltz]: You killed me once, so I'll return the favor five times! From now on, it will be a fight to the death between us!

[Death Waltz]: All players in Yunlong City listen up, whoever dares to buy the equipment I dropped, I will wipe out their entire family!!

These three messages sent by Death Waltz stunned all the players scrolling through the World Chat.

"What's going on? Night Ember killed Death Waltz?"

"No way! No way! A ceiling-level player like Death Waltz got overturned by a rookie like Night Ember?"

"Based on what Death Waltz said, this is mostly likely true."

"How did Night Ember do it? This is practically slaying a god with the power of a mortal!"

"That's damn terrifying!!"

Major figures soon appeared and spoke up on the World Chat Channel.

[Yuan Shu]: That Level 250 scrub named Death Waltz, if you don't hurry back to your Black Phoenix City, you'll lose your life.

[Yuan Shu]: @Night Ember, I want all the equipment Death Waltz dropped!

Beside the Teleportation Array leading from Yunlong City to Black Phoenix City.

Death Waltz's face was as dark as water, his iron fists clenched tightly.

Looking at the message Yuan Shu posted on the World Chat Channel, a thick murderous intent erupted from Death Waltz.

"Damn it! Damn them all!!"

Death Waltz could no longer remain calm.

"When the Year of Death One arrives, I will make all of you pay the price; the entire Yunlong City will have to be buried alongside you!"

His level had now dropped to 250, and things would likely not be peaceful once he returned to Black Phoenix City.

The players he had chased into hiding, and the major powers that had succumbed to his tyranny, were probably preparing to make a move.

Death Waltz gritted his teeth and stepped into the Teleportation Array... Inside the Ye Clan Merchant Guild.

Miss Bu Dong and the newly arrived Foot-Washing Maid, Hong Jiu'er, were both staring blankly at Lin Du.

After a moment of shock, Ning Fengya turned her head, her gaze profound.

"Do you have anything else to explain?"

Lin Du sighed helplessly. "If, and I mean *if*!"

"If I said Death Waltz tripped and died because he was running too fast, would you believe me?"

Ning Fengya didn't speak. Her figure vanished with a *swoosh* right before Lin Du's eyes.

Was she so angry she logged out?

Lin Du was startled by the sight.

Without the slightest hesitation, he immediately logged out of the game as well.

Inside Lin Du's small bedroom at the Ning Family Villa.

Bang—

The bedroom door was roughly pushed open.

Ning Fengya frowned slightly as she looked at Lin Du, who was innocently organizing his clothes in the room.

Just now, for some reason, in her anger, she had actually wanted to find her useless husband and vent!

This was a completely subconscious action, done without any thought... Ning Fengya rubbed her throbbing head.

She was exhausted and dazed.

She had been too tired lately; besides preparing for the arrival of the Year of Death every day, she also had to deal with a manipulative Clown Ancestor.

She found this Clown increasingly unfathomable; today, he had actually managed to kill a top-tier player like Death Waltz!

This was simply unimaginable, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say he had shattered the heavens.

Being around the Clown every day, Ning Fengya feared she would be calculated against next!

This psychological pressure was far more unbearable than physical exhaustion.

She was mentally and physically drained!

...Inside the room, Lin Du cautiously observed Ning Fengya's expression.

"Wife, why does your face look so terrible? Are you feeling unwell?"

"How about I give you a massage?"

Lin Du's face was full of concern.

Ning Fengya waved her hand impatiently. "No need. We have important guests coming tonight, go prepare yourself properly."

"The guests arriving this time have extraordinary status, don't embarrass me!"

...
