Chapter 232: Shadows within the Longwu Guild
After Su Ren returned to the guild, he first asked Ling Qingxue to go to the guild cafeteria for lunch.
At her request, I told her about what had happened to me recently.
Ling Qingxue was like a listener, feeling nervous and happy at the same time as Su Ren spoke.
When she heard about what happened to Chen Laoba and his sister, she became worried again. After knowing that Su Ren finally saved Chen Yao, she also felt relieved.
"No, is that Chen Yao pretty?"
Ling Qingxue stared at Su Ren's eyes warily, afraid that he was lying.
"She's pretty. His brother said his sister is among the top three in Wanshan City in terms of beauty."
"Well, it's because of long-term illness that she looks a little haggard, but there is also a kind of sickly and fragile beauty..."
At this point, Su Ren suddenly felt that the atmosphere was wrong. When he looked at Ling Qingxue, he found that she was staring at him with a smile.
"Oh, she's so pretty, she must be very good to you?"
"There's something interesting to watch, the jealous jar is about to fall~"
In the pet space, Shika clapped his hands and gloated over the misfortune.
She seemed to enjoy seeing Su Ren get humiliated in this regard, and would cheer every time something like this happened.
Su Ren closed the connection between the pet space and the outside world to avoid hearing her quarreling.
"Tsk, that's so boring~"
Shika couldn't see what was happening outside, so he could only turn around boredly, pick up the Nine-Colored Divine Phoenix Egg and go back to the hut he had built.
As for the Ice Dragon King and his beasts, they were squatting on the ground and having a great time playing Landlord.
They are not interested in such things at all.
These human women are not ugly to them, but they are definitely not beautiful either.
"Um... Qingxue, I'm going to take part in the trial in a few days. Do you know the rules?"
Su Ren quickly changed the subject.
Sure enough, when Ling Qingxue heard that Su Ren was going to participate in the trial, she became a little worried and instantly forgot about what happened just now.
Although she was well aware of Su Ren's strength, she still felt inexplicably worried.
"I know a little bit, but I also heard it from my senior sisters."
Seeing that he had successfully changed the subject, Su Ren continued to ask:
"Tell me, I've made preparations early."
Ling Qingxue nodded, then slowly said:
"This trial can be seen as a national competition. The specific content is decided on an ad hoc basis every year. I am not sure about this."
"But the promotion rules have basically not changed. First, a large number of people are eliminated, and then the final few winners are selected from those who advance to participate."
"It is said that those who are chosen will receive extremely generous rewards every year."
"With your ability, it should be easy to get first place."
Su Ren felt helpless when he heard this. He had to pretend to be weak and provoke those kids from aristocratic families.
This is really not an easy job.
There was no other way. He was really not good at pretending to be weak. Those people could not withstand any of his attacks. He could only use normal attacks.
"Oh, by the way, that trial may be life-threatening, so you have to be careful and don't be careless."
"Life is in danger? No protection?"
Ling Qingxue shook her head.
"No, it seems that you are going to enter a dungeon like a secret realm, where all kinds of monsters are rampant. If you are not careful, you may die in there."
"I heard from my senior sisters that many people die in the Trial Secret Realm every year. Some are killed by monsters, and some may be killed by people..."
When saying this, Ling Qingxue looked around.
After all, it was just a rumor, and she didn't dare to say it out loud for others to hear.
"My senior sisters said that it's best to find a few familiar people to hang out with before going in. This will not only ensure safety, but also ensure that you can advance to the next round more smoothly."
Suren nodded.
No matter where you are, wherever there are people, there will be conflicts. This is inevitable.
The authorities must know about this, but they did not change the trial method. They must have their own considerations.
"Oh, there's one more thing. I feel like someone is following me lately. I didn't dare leave the guild until you came back."
"Someone was following you? Did you see what he looked like?"
Su Ren had offended many people, and he was afraid that someone would implicate Ling Qingxue because of him.
Ling Qingxue shook her head.
"No, every time I look back the feeling of being followed disappears. I don't know if it's an illusion."
"Have you told your instructor?"
"No, I wasn't sure either, so I didn't dare to bother the instructor."
"Is that so? Then don't leave the guild recently. I will find a way to protect you."
Su Ren thought that the Poison Dragon King could transform into a human form, and then he could arrange for it to secretly protect Ling Qingxue.
Although the Poison Dragon King is still very weak now, he is more than capable of dealing with ordinary people.
"Okay, I'll be careful too."
"Keep working hard. I feel like Senior Sister Mu and you are the only ones in our guild who can consistently advance to the World Championship."
Speaking of this, Ling Qingxue looked at Su Ren proudly. This was her man.
"Hey, I remember now, didn't you just say that Senior Sister Mu Hongxia also went to Liuli Island?"
Hearing this, Su Ren immediately felt something was wrong.
Sure enough, the next second Ling Qingxue frowned and asked:
"Is Senior Sister Mu pretty?"
"Do you have any on Liuli Island..."
Su Ren didn't expect that they were just talking about safety, but in an instant she could turn to this kind of thing.
It's true that women's train of thought cannot be judged by common sense.
"Well, Qingxue, I have something else to do. I'll leave first. We can play together another day."
Su Ren also ignored Wu Zhengyang's warning not to use space skills in the guild.
After digging out a wormhole, it immediately disappeared on the spot.
"Suren!!!"
"You haven't answered my question yet!"
Seeing Su Ren running faster than a rabbit, Ling Qingxue stomped her feet in anger.
…
The boys' dormitory of Longwu Guild.
In Lin Shengan's residence, besides himself, there was another person standing in the room.
"Su Ren is back. He and Ling Qingxue just discussed the trial in the cafeteria and confirmed that Su Ren will participate in this trial."
When Lin Shengan heard this, his eyes lit up.
"Okay, okay, I've been waiting for this day for a long time. As long as I can eat the Nine-Colored Divine Phoenix, it won't be impossible for me to become a god!"
"Don't go out hunting in the next few days. The inspections in Kyoto have become stricter recently. If you go out hunting again, you will definitely be exposed."
"We just need to wait for the trial in a few days, and then the countless geniuses of Dragon Country will become our food."
“We can eat whatever we want!”
"After I eat the Nine-Colored Divine Phoenix, I will eat all of these high-level professionals in Dragon Country."
When the other person heard this, his eyes also flashed with excitement, and he quickly bowed and said:
"Yes, Master Taotie!"
