130: Lin Du's identity was exposed

This is also a good item!

Ancient Emperor Nine Nethers Cave Mansion can be understood as a unique instance.

The so-called legacy inheritance refers to treasures such as weapons, equipment, skills, and even class change books... In terms of preciousness, Ancient Emperor Nine Nethers Cave Mansion can be ranked between the Supreme Secret Realm and Qin Kings Underground Palace Instance.

However, in terms of difficulty, Ancient Emperor Nine Nethers Cave Mansion is much simpler.

For Lin Du, it's basically a freebie.

The value of the nine nether ancient emperor token is far higher than weapons and equipment of the same level... Lin Du now has one last deep orange box left in front of him.

He was about to open it when his heart suddenly skipped a beat.

Thump!

An ominous premonition surfaced in his heart... "Oh no!"

"Something's wrong outside!"

Lin Du didn't dare to delay for a moment and immediately exited the game... In the dim bedroom.

Lin Du lay on the bed, breathing steadily, his chest rising and falling rhythmically, and a slight snore coming from his mouth...

Beside the bed, a tall figure was silently watching Lin Du.

Following the light from outside the window, one could vaguely see that the person standing by the bed was a woman with a high ponytail.

The woman stood with her hands in her pockets, looking down from above, a faint smile playing on her lips.

"Live-in Son-in-law of the Ning Family, are you going to keep pretending?"

"No wonder the Ning family members haven't discovered your secret; all the details of your disguise are perfect."

"Even your breathing sounds are so similar."

The woman's playful voice echoed in the quiet room.

"If you don't wake up soon, I might have to go have a good chat with Ning Fengya..."

Hearing the familiar voice, Lin Du's heart suddenly constricted, as if a basin of cold water had been poured over him from head to toe.

In an instant, he was enveloped by a chilling fear.

It's over!

How could she be here!!

This voice... was too familiar.

Lin Du instantly understood; it turned out that the guest the Ning Family was so grandly welcoming today was Yuan Shu.

Lin Du's heart sank halfway.

He had accounted for the habits of the Ning family members and Ning Fengya's meeting time, but he had never anticipated the unexpected variable of Yuan Shu... In the end, his secret wasn't discovered by Ning Fengya, but by this guest, Yuan Shu, first!

Lin Du hadn't expected Yuan Shu to be the guest visiting the Ning Family today, nor had he expected Yuan Shu to actually walk into Ning Fengya's room... Things were serious!

Lin Du didn't know how long Yuan Shu had been standing in the bedroom.

But what was certain was that his secret must have been exposed.

This woman, Yuan Shu, was too unfathomable; it was impossible to fool her about something she had already decided... In his helplessness, Lin Du could only open his eyes.

Since the matter of entering the game couldn't be kept secret, then he would try to keep his in-game identity a secret.

The identity of Night Ember had caused too much trouble; if Ning Fengya knew about this identity, Lin Du might die without even a trace of his bones left.

Lin Du tremblingly sat up from the bed.

Using the light from outside the window, he clearly saw the woman standing at the head of the bed.

This woman wasn't just similar to Yuan Shu; she was identical... Her appearance and demeanor were exactly the same!

This domineering woman hadn't adjusted her appearance at all when entering the game; even her clothes were exactly the same as in the game.

It was undoubtedly Yuan Shu... Lin Du's eyes revealed worry and fear.

He put on all the expressions a normal person would have when their secret is discovered.

"Who are you!"

"Why are you in my bedroom!!"

Yuan Shu watched Lin Du's strenuous performance, and a strange smile appeared on her lips.

"It's a pity you're not an actor."

Yuan Shu took out her phone and threw it in front of Lin Du.

"See for yourself!"

Lin Du subconsciously picked up the phone from the bed.

On the phone screen was a photo, a photo of Lin Du wearing a purple suit in a shopping mall!

Lin Du fell silent.

Damn it!

He was actually secretly photographed.

It's over, completely over.

Now even his in-game identity couldn't be kept secret.

Yuan Shu looked down at Lin Du from above, her gaze like a hunter staring at unfamiliar prey.

Novelty, surprise, amusement, anticipation... "Now, should I call you Night Ember or Lin Du?"

Every word from Yuan Shu's mouth was like a heavy hammer, forcefully striking Lin Du's soul.

And Lin Du could only silently endure, daring not to speak his anger.

Lin Du sighed heavily.

"Boss Yuan!"

"Tell me, what will it take for you to let me go?"

Lin Du laid his cards on the table.

With his weakness in Yuan Shu's hands, he had no choice but to bow his head.

As for killing her to silence her?

Impossible!

Even in reality, Lin Du felt an unfathomable aura from Yuan Shu.

Yuan Shu gave a completely different impression than Ning Fengya.

Lin Du highly suspected that Yuan Shu might know some martial arts!

In Lin Du's current half-crippled state, whether he could even defeat Yuan Shu was still a question... Yuan Shu didn't seem to intend to make things difficult for Lin Du.

She took back her phone and turned directly to walk towards the bedroom door.

"Don't worry, I won't expose your little secret."

"You should develop well, I hope there will be a day when you can help me..."

Yuan Shu left.

Lin Du was dumbfounded.

It's over just like that?

The crisis... was resolved just like that?

Based on Lin Du's understanding of Yuan Shu, it was highly unlikely that she would go back on her word.

If she said she wouldn't expose him, then she really wouldn't!

Was he really safe?

"Whoosh—"

Lin Du weakly slumped onto the bed; unknowingly, his back was already soaked.

Fortunately, it was Yuan Shu today; if anyone else had discovered his secret, Lin Du would surely be dead... Yuan Shu wouldn't go back on her word, but Lin Du still didn't dare to be careless.

The best way to solve the current problem was to pay off his debt early and leave the Ning Family.

Only when he left the Ning Family could Lin Du truly relax his mind.

Of course, leaving the Ning Family not only required 320,000 years of 'lifespan value' but also enough power to protect himself.

In the eyes of a top financial group like the Ning Family, mere rich people were just little white rabbits waiting to be slaughtered... Lin Du lay back down on the bed.

However, before he had even warmed the bed, the bedroom door opened again.

Hearing the footsteps, Lin Du's heart skipped a beat.

This time, it wasn't Yuan Shu, but the owner of the bedroom.

Ning Fengya!

Tap-tap-tap—

High heels clicked on the floor, the sound exceptionally crisp and pleasant.

Ning Fengya stopped at the spot where Yuan Shu had just been standing.

"Lin Du, someone was here just now?"
