Desolation City.
Zhang Yue spent the entire morning completing an [Against the Light] quest. In the process, he took down over twenty War God Guild mbers, racking up more than 2,000 sin points!
However, with the help of Misty Rain Pavilion and Supre Guild mbers, Zhang Yue could clear his sin points quickly. mbers of the two guilds would wear down the dragons and leave the finishing blow to Zhang Yue.
This thod didn't yield experience points or other battle rewards, but it helped him clear his sin points effectively.
Returning to the Dark Temple at noon, Zhang Yue, who couldn't log off with his red na, accepted another quest from Goa and went right back to slaying dragons.
By late afternoon, with the two guilds' help, Zhang Yue had cleared all his sin points.
The War God Guild had also quieted down, with no one looking to pick a fight with Zhang Yue—for now. War God Heaven's Retribution was a man who knew how to handle things.
However, talk about the Global Professional League had already beco the hottest topic!
That evening, while Zhang Yue was eating at a Sichuan restaurant, he overheard a group of young n at the next table animatedly discussing the upcoming tournant:
"If you make it into the top one hundred, you win 100,000 yuan! Imagine, with that prize money, we could go clubbing or book a few models!"
"Top one hundred? With a bit of luck, that's easy money!"
"Think bigger, guys. The top prize for our province is a million!"
"Haha, better level up to thirty before the tournant. You're all barely level twenty-three—you might not even qualify!"
After finishing his al, Zhang Yue headed back to his hotel to log in.
Just then, he received a call from the real estate agent: "Hello, Mr. Zhang. A new rental has opened up near Shiyue Yating. Would you like to co by and see it?"
"Now works. Contact the landlord and let's sign the lease directly."
Zhang Yue hung up. Monts later, he received the location via text, just as his phone displayed a low battery warning.
"My charger... it's still at Shiyue Yating."
"It's close by. I'll grab it."
With that thought, Zhang Yue headed back to Shiyue Yating.
Arriving at Building 3, Unit 507, he entered the main bedroom. Thankfully, the air no longer reeked of cheap perfu. He grabbed his charger and a few other belongings.
Just as he was about to leave, he heard a sudden knock at the door!
At the sa ti, he heard a door opening in the adjacent room, followed by a familiar-sounding voice: "Who's there?"
"Delivery!"
A girl in a pink dress and teddy bear slippers stepped out of the side bedroom and walked to the door.
However, as soon as she opened it, a dark figure lunged in, slamd the door shut, and locked it!
The girl's eyes widened as she stared at the intruder—a young man with dark skin and brown, perd hair, looking every bit like a thug.
"Wu... Wu Di?" She stamred, her face filled with shock.
"What are you doing here?"
"Ning Tiantian!" Wu Di's face twisted in anger. "You wretched girl! You ruined !"
"I had just been promoted to Vice President of the War God Guild, my future was bright! But because you and that beast tar plotted against , I got kicked out! My career, my future, it's all gone—and it's your fault!"
"And now you want to break up with ? You think blocking ans I can't find you?"
Ning Tiantian's face turned pale as she retreated. "W-what are you trying to do?"
Wu Di advanced on her, his face filled with malice. "You ruined my life, so don't think you'll escape unscathed!"
He suddenly lunged, pinning Ning Tiantian onto the sofa. Holding her wrists above her head with one hand, he tore her dress with the other, exposing her bare skin.
Unable to hold back his anger, Wu Di let his lust take over. "If I can't have you, no one will!"
"Ning Tiantian, you're mine!"
He leaned in, aiming a kiss at her exposed shoulder.
"Let go!"
Ning Tiantian struggled desperately, but as a petite girl, she couldn't possibly overpower Wu Di, who was like a raging beast.
"Stop! Please let go!" She cried in terror, screaming for help. "Help , soone, please!"
"Go ahead, scream! The more you scream, the more excited I get!" Wu Di sneered. "Playing coy? Let's see how innocent you really are!"
With that, his hands moved down, creeping toward her waist.
But just then, Wu Di felt a strong force grab him from behind, yanking him off Ning Tiantian!
Before he could react, a powerful punch landed squarely on his forehead, knocking him to the ground.
Dazed, Wu Di looked up and saw Zhang Yue standing over him.
"It's you?!"
Surprised and furious, Wu Di spat, "So, you two are shacking up already? Ning Tiantian, you—"
Before he could finish, Zhang Yue lifted him up like a rag doll and delivered another punch, slamming him back onto the floor.
Compared to Zhang Yue, Wu Di's scrawny fra stood no chance.
After only two punches, Wu Di was already knocked out cold.
Zhang Yue didn't go for the kill. He knew that in the Otherworld, murder wasn't punished, but real-world cris ca with consequences.
Turning to Ning Tiantian, who was trembling in the corner, Zhang Yue realized that the timid "Milk Candy" from the Otherworld was actually the "Pink Girl" who lived next door to him.
Though a bit surprised, he remained composed and said, "Leave here before he wakes up."
With that, Zhang Yue left the room.
Ning Tiantian quickly adjusted her clothes, too scared to go back inside to pack her belongings, and hurried after Zhang Yue.
Later, Zhang Yue t with the agent at the new apartnt, checked it out, and signed the lease on the spot.
After seeing off the landlord and agent, he prepared to log into the Otherworld.
Suddenly, there was a knock at the door!
When he opened it, Ning Tiantian stood there, looking up at him.
"Why are you here?"
"I... I'm scared to go back, and I don't have the money for a hotel," Ning Tiantian replied, her voice soft and pitiful as she looked at Zhang Yue. "I have nowhere else to go..."
Leaning against the doorfra, Zhang Yue asked calmly, "So, you want to stay here?"
Ning Tiantian nodded timidly, her voice barely a whisper. "Can I... just stay for one night? I'll leave as soon as I find a place."
"Fine." Zhang Yue agreed. "But first, tell why you called an Asura."
Ning Tiantian bit her lip. Not wanting to spend the night on the streets, she decided to be honest.
"It's because one day, while you were logged off, a delivery guy brought you a letter. The contents... ntioned it."
Zhang Yue's heart skipped a beat.
That letter again...
He realized sothing else. "So, you've known all along that I'm the one living next door?"
Ning Tiantian nodded. "One ti, I saw you through the door crack when you logged off..."
True to his word, Zhang Yue let her inside.
"Aren't you afraid of your ex? Living here with —aren't you worried?"
Ning Tiantian looked at Zhang Yue and shook her head.
"We dated online for a while, but when Wu Di ca to et in Linhai, he insisted I stay with him at a hotel that night. I refused... and we broke up after that."
"But when I'm with you, I feel safe. I don't know why..."
Noticing the ssy living room, kitchen, and bathroom, Ning Tiantian offered, "I-I won't stay for free. I'll clean up for you!"
Zhang Yue didn't argue. "Alright, it's all yours."
With that, Zhang Yue went back to his room, locked the door, and logged into the Otherworld.
