Chapter 485 Then I Will Take Action!
Su Chen's worries did not come true.
Xiao Ningxue had accumulated a lot of experience and could have made a breakthrough long ago. She had been dragging it on until now just to consolidate her foundation for the future.
Now the time has come, the right time, the right place, and the right people are all there, so it is natural for her to make a breakthrough.
As her breath became more restrained, Xiao Ningxue slowly opened her eyes, and her crystal clear eyes were as bright as various gemstones.
"Huh, finally, I successfully broke through to the seventh stage."
Feeling the stable power in her body, even with Xiao Ningxue's cold temperament, she couldn't help but smile.
Su Chen breathed a sigh of relief, his face full of smiles, and he stretched out his hand to rub Xiao Ningxue's little head, which was happier than he showed.
Xiao Ningxue did not avoid it, but looked at the man in front of her with complicated eyes, and said with relief: "I can help you later."
Hearing this, Su Chen's smile paused, but he didn't say anything, just nodded and hummed.
The two have been together for so long, and their relationship is so close that it has reached the level of negative distance.
The understanding of each other is naturally quite deep.
Su Chen knew very well that Xiao Ningxue was a strong-willed person. She was actually uncomfortable being protected by him all the time, but she didn't show it in front of him.
As his strength improved faster and faster, Xiao Ningxue gradually couldn't keep up with his pace. Even with the help of Tianluan, she was still left behind.
In this situation, if it were an ordinary little woman, she would naturally enjoy the protection and life peacefully.
But for Xiao Ningxue, it was definitely not a comfortable thing.
Until now, Xiao Ningxue has successfully broken through the seventh stage, and the power of Tianluan that can be exerted has reached the peak level of the eighth stage.
Even if it is still not as good as himself, she can fight side by side with him on the front battlefield.
Xiao Ningxue finally let go of her knot and said what she thought in her heart.
The two of them didn't think about the outside world. After a while of tenderness, Su Chen took the initiative to help Xiao Ningxue master the power that was several times stronger.
Since the two are still in the city, it is easy to attract the attention of other strong men if they go all out.
So they didn't fight seriously, but focused on polishing the details of manipulating power.
One taught with all his heart, and the other learned with all his heart.
Before long, Xiao Ningxue became familiar with the power of the seventh level, and she was quite eager to try.
"Su Chen, why don't we go to the wild and summon Tianluan to try it out?"
This is not a bad thing, Su Chen is willing to take Xiao Ningxue to find a deserted place to try it out.
However, with their current identities and status in the city, leaving casually may attract the attention of others.
After thinking about it, he still can't act rashly, and he has to find a suitable reason.
What kind of reason should he find?
Su Chen had the answer in his mind, ran to find Lin Hongxue, and said bluntly:
"I have some things to do outside the city later. In order not to attract too much attention, I hope to go under your name, Miss."
Lin Hongxue has been trying hard to find Lin Dong, which is something that all the high-level masters in the city know well.
It was natural that no one would suspect that it was wrong to go to the suburbs under the pretext of finding Lin Dong for Miss Lin.
Lin Hongxue raised her eyebrows curiously, and when she saw that Su Chen did not take the initiative to tell her what he was doing, she did not ask.
She nodded and agreed directly, indicating that even if someone asked later, she would unify her words.
After all, Lin Hongxue knew clearly that the mysterious and powerful "Assistant Chen" from another place in front of her was actually named Su Chen.
This was the secret that Xiao Ningxue told her in person some time ago.
Even their true identities needed to be concealed, so it is conceivable that there must be a lot of stories behind the two of them.
In this case, it is understandable that secret actions are occasionally needed.
It's a pity that she can't know the truth of the matter.
However, Lin Hongxue also knew in her heart that her status and position were very different from those of the two assistants.
She couldn't trust each other wholeheartedly, just as the other party couldn't trust her wholeheartedly.
The current tacit cooperation between the three parties was because they had common interests.
Once the common interests are lost, it only takes a moment to become strangers!
I am destined not to know the other party's secrets.
Just like the other party is destined not to know my real trump card.
Looking at Su Chen's departing back, Lin Hongxue's eyes flickered.
In a place that others cannot see, there seems to be some kind of darkness crawling in the deepest part of Lin Hongxue's eyes.
...
Back to the small courtyard, Su Chen took Xiao Ningxue and set off immediately.
The two flew all the way to the suburbs and took the initiative to report at the city gate, highlighting that they were open and aboveboard.
After leaving the city gate, they flew three hundred miles to the south. After confirming that no one was following them in secret, they fell into a valley.
The forest was lush and green, the bushes were dense, and many small animals were hiding in between.
Two figures fell from the sky, startling a flock of birds.
"Okay, let's do it here."
"There's no one within a thousand meters, and no one is following us."
"If we are still seen here, it's fate, and there's nothing we can do."
Su Chen looked at Xiao Ningxue beside him with a gentle look, and then let go of his hand.
Xiao Ningxue nodded, stepped back a few steps, and looked eager to try.
"Then I'll take action?"
"Just come on, no need to hold back." Su Chen showed a confident smile at the corner of his mouth.
Even if she was promoted to the seventh stage, Xiao Ningxue could exert the power of the peak level of the eighth stage with the help of Tianluan.
There was still a visible gap between the two people's strength.
Su Chen did not think that Xiao Ningxue could hurt him.
This was indeed the case!
A series of roars suddenly sounded.
The dazzling blue light rushed straight into the sky, breaking the surrounding clouds.
Many Xuande City masters were startled, stood up, looked into the distance, and showed a thoughtful look.
Some well-informed masters immediately inquired about the relevant news through their own channels.
Soon they learned that not long ago, two masters went out of the city, seemingly to do something.
But it was probably not something that could not be seen in public, because they reported it openly at the city gate.
After learning the specific identities of the two masters, the Xuande masters made some guesses.
The majority of them said, "Su Chen and Xiao Ningxue should have gone to look for Lin Dong."
"The fact that they were able to go out should be a big clue. Could it be that the young lady really found Lin Dong?"
"If that's the case, we need to be better at treating the young lady in the future."
It's not that no one suspected that the two of them went to do other things.
But first, they had no evidence, and second, even if they asked Lin Hongxue for confirmation, they would only get the answer that Su Chen and Xiao Ningxue went out of the city to look for clues.
The benefits of unifying the caliber in advance were now apparent.
