161: Beautiful lady with brown eyes, we are safe.

In the conference room, Ning Fengya was stunned.

Did Qin Guanguan just say... that the previous agreement between both parties was completely void?

Then, wasn't the matter of having a child with Lin Du unnecessary?

Creak— The conference room door opened.

Ning Tianxiong walked in with a solemn expression.

"Fengya, how did it go? What did your mother say?"

Ning Fengya shook her head in a daze, "She said the previous agreement between both parties is completely void!"

Ning Tianxiong's breath hitched.

"That woman!!"

"I will ask her myself!"

Ning Tianxiong couldn't sit still; he took out his phone and sent a video call request to Qin Guanguan.

Beep— The video call connected.

On the screen, Qin Guanguan glanced at Ning Tianxiong casually.

"I have already told Fengya what I meant."

"If it is still about this matter, then there is no need for us to continue talking!"

Ning Tianxiong narrowed his eyes.

"Qin Guanguan, stop beating around the bush."

"What conditions do you want exactly? Speak up!"

Qin Guanguan smiled.

She crossed her legs and leisurely stroked the cat in her arms.

"So many years have passed, Ning Tianxiong, you still understand me the best."

"Then I will be direct."

Qin Guanguan put down the cat and looked calmly at Ning Tianxiong on the screen.

"My request is very simple; I still want a child from Fengya and Lin Du!"

"Given that the arrival of the Year of Death One has been advanced, I hope that within 29 days, Fengya can conceive a child, and then move in with me during the Year of Death One."

"After giving birth, I can let her return to the Ning Family. That is not too much to ask, is it?"

Ning Tianxiong fell silent.

Beside him, a look of worry flashed across Ning Fengya's face.

In the video, Qin Guanguan's lazy voice rang out again.

"Since you are both silent, I will assume you agree."

"Whenever Fengya comes to find me pregnant, that is when I will take action to help Rule the World."

"Alright, goodbye!"

"My precious daughter, you must work hard!"

...

Ten o'clock at night.

Ning Fengya carried out Qin Guanguan's order, and after diligently exercising with Lin Du, she entered the game.

Lin Du, dragging his exhausted body, also found an opportunity to enter the game...

The secret of the Starry Sky Zerg Hive, after a day of exploration, had already been figured out by some high-level players in terms of its patterns and rhythm.

In Yunlong City, countless players above level 450 dropped what they were doing and headed to the Starry Sky Zerg Hive's base to explore and level up.

In a short time, the Starry Sky Zerg Hive became the place where the most high-level players gathered.

Within one day, the Yunlong City kill points leaderboard was already filled.

【Kill Points Leaderboard】

1. Yuan Shu — 1350 points

2. Qilin Immortal Venerable — 1252 points

3. Hundred Flowers Withered — 1010 points

4. Nine Year Cicada — 1005 points

5. Zhang Fei Who Can Sing Karaoke — 955 points

6. Black Knight — 915 points

7. Violent Aesthetics — 855 points

8. Tony Tony — 812 points

9. Lü Bu Riding a Donkey — 809 points

10. Wocuo Sect Leader — 801 points

Yuan Shu and Qilin Immortal Venerable led the kill points leaderboard, creating a significant gap from the players behind them.

Inside the Ye Clan Merchant Guild, Lin Du lay on a recliner, pondering his next steps.

The start time of the Year of Death One had been shortened to 29 days.

During these 29 days, besides rapidly increasing his level, Lin Du also planned to get a share of the spoils in the Starry Sky Zerg Hive.

The experience value rewards in the Starry Sky Zerg Hive were exceptionally generous, and the kill points could also be exchanged for rewards, which had a fatal attraction for every player.

When designing the Starry Sky Zerg Hive initially, Lin Du had set very high-level rewards for these super big bosses in the game.

These rewards were very tempting, even to Lin Du!

His urgent priority right now was to rapidly increase his level; otherwise, he would have no qualification to step into the territory of the Starry Sky Zerg Hive...

Lin Du flipped his wrist, and an exquisite black token appeared in his hand.

This token was exactly the 【nine nether ancient emperor token】 that he had obtained from the deep orange chest earlier.

【nine nether ancient emperor token (SS Rank): After use, it opens the Ancient Emperor Nine Nethers Cave Mansion. Upon successful challenge, there is a chance to inherit the mantle of the Nine Nether Ancient Emperor!】

Hidden secret realms like the Ancient Emperor Nine Nethers Cave Mansion, besides dropping high-level treasures, would also drop a super large amount of experience value rewards.

Lin Du was anxious to level up, and this place perfectly met his needs.

Lin Du moved his mind and activated the 【nine nether ancient emperor token】.

Hum—

【nine nether ancient emperor token successfully activated!】

【Coordinates: Canglan Mountain (325, 125)】

【Please arrive within two hours!】

Canglan Mountain was not close to the outside of Yunlong City; it would take at least over an hour to get there from the Ye Clan Merchant Guild.

Lin Du opened his chat list and called Ning Fengya...

Half an hour later, Ning Fengya arrived at the Ye Clan Merchant Guild.

Lin Du activated the system's automatic pathfinding and, riding Ning Fengya's Ice Flame Spirit Phoenix, headed straight for Canglan Mountain.

The moment the two stepped out of Yunlong City, the news reached the ears of Heaven and Earth Share Longevity and Thousand Blade Drunk.

After making careful arrangements, Thousand Blade Drunk immediately led people to catch up with Lin Du and his companion...

...

"Night Ember, where are you going!"

"Leaving the city at this time, aren't you afraid of being surrounded and killed?"

On the back of the Ice Flame Spirit Phoenix, Ning Fengya's pretty face was full of reluctance.

She had been in the game for so long, and the thing she regretted the most was signing this protection contract with Night Ember.

If Night Ember had just honestly stayed hidden in the city, it would have been fine, but not only was he not honest, he had also offended a huge group of super powerhouses.

Offending the players of Yunlong City wasn't enough; he even went to offend powerful players from other main cities!

If Ning Fengya were given another chance to choose, she wouldn't sign this damn contract even if it killed her.

As for Ning Yang's All-Round Blacksmith profession, to hell with it!

In order to protect Night Ember, Ning Fengya didn't even have time to raid the Starry Sky Zerg Hive; most of her energy in the game was spent on Night Ember...

"Don't worry, Brown-Eyed Beauty."

"We are safe!"

An hour later, the Ice Flame Spirit Phoenix arrived at Canglan Mountain.

The journey was calm and peaceful, and no danger occurred.

Lin Du confirmed the location coordinates and then took out the nine nether ancient emperor token.

However, just as he was about to activate the nine nether ancient emperor token, two six-pointed star teleportation arrays suddenly lit up in front of them.

Hum hum—

Inside the teleportation arrays, figures with powerful auras appeared abruptly.

A rough look revealed at least twenty players from the Heaven and Earth Share Longevity guild.

At the same time!

Swoosh— Swoosh swoosh—

Sounds of breaking air rang out from the surrounding mountains and forests, and one by one, aggressive players holding various weapons surrounded Lin Du and Ning Fengya in the middle...

In a fleeting moment, the silent mountains and forests were filled with people.

"Ember Eyes, Night Ember!"

"What a coincidence!"

"We meet again so soon."

Thousand Blade Drunk, with a sinister face, sneered as he walked up to the two.
