Chapter 525: Ruthless
In the dead of night, darkness shrouded the earth, and there was still a little light in the Kunlun Hall because there were several places where the everlasting lamps were lit. However, the light is also very faint, and it does not shine too far away.
It can't shine on Lu Chen's body.
The black dog Ah Tu lay beside Lu Chen, and did not fall asleep as usual, but looked a little uneasy. From time to time, it would turn its head to look around, and more often it would look at the tall lotus throne in the center of the main hall, although it was empty at the moment, but in its dog eyes, there always seemed to be some vigilance and even hostility.
Probably because the person sitting on it was too powerful, and one day he got tired of the dog barking and kicked it out.
In contrast, Lu Chen seemed much calmer, he almost sat quietly from beginning to end and closed his eyes to recuperate, until late at night, when everything was quiet, he opened his eyes, glanced outside the main hall, and said to Ah Tu: "Let's go." ”
Ah Tu stood up, wagged his tail, and trotted towards the door by himself, as if he did not have the slightest attachment to this place, and seemed to dislike it.
Lu Chen then also walked out of the main hall, and the few faint lights in the Kunlun Hall could not extend to the outside at all, so the darkness came like a tide, enveloping him in the shadows.
Ah Tu turned his head to look at him, probably because he was standing in the dark, Lu Chen suddenly found that his eyes had turned a faint green again, a slight change from when he came to the fairy city before, the color was lighter, but clearer, as if a gem had wiped away a little dust on the surface and became more and more beautiful.
He smiled, reached out and touched Atu's head, then strode down the steps into the dark night.

In the conversation before leaving, Tianlan Zhenjun had already explained most of the things to Lu Chen, as for why it was such a confidential matter, when he didn't go there himself, Tianlan Zhenjun also explained the reason to Lu Chen, saying that at this moment it was a critical moment when the undercurrent was surging and dangerous in the True Immortal Alliance, and he really couldn't get out of it, and he had to guard the scene here. Once he left the immortal city rashly, he was afraid that a big change would happen.
Today, the True Immortal League has almost exterminated the Demon Sect, the world has returned to the heart, the Floating Cloud Division is famous all over the world, and everyone is in awe, whether it is the True Immortal League or the Tianlan True Monarch, it is the peak of its fame and prestige for hundreds of years. However, at this moment, Tianlan Zhenjun said that there was a lot of danger, but he said that a great change would be born?
Lu Chen didn't refute or ask about this, he just calmly took over this strange and important secret mission, and then quietly left this giant city where the center of power in the world's cultivation realm was located after announcing the excuse of retreat.
For many years, he seemed to be a person born in the dark, and whenever night came, he would seem to be very at home, and he could even do things that ordinary people could not imagine.
Of course, this night he will no longer transform into the shadow killer with cold killing intent in the dusty memories of the past, he just quietly took Ah Tu and left this immortal city in a hurry.
There were no accidents along the way, and the walk was very smooth, although it was not a particularly gratifying thing, but the moment Lu Chen walked out of the range of the fairy city, he still felt a sense of relief.
When he looked back, he suddenly realized in his heart that the city that was quietly crawling in the dark night like a giant beast, it turned out that every day he was in it, there was an unconscious tension and pressure.
Lu Chen stood in place for a while, then exhaled a long breath, turned around and greeted Ah Tu, who seemed to be far more excited than him, and was very happy to drill the woods and grass everywhere in the surrounding wilderness, sniffing, sniffing, running and jumping wildly, and was about to continue on his way.
It's just that at this time, Lu Chen and Ah Tu, who was running over not far away, suddenly realized something, and turned their heads together to look at a place hundreds of zhang away.
It also happened to be the junction between the fairy city and the outside world, and in the faint light and shadow of the night, suddenly several figures rose into the sky, and quickly fell, and then fought fiercely in that darkness.
The sound of blades, roars, cold snorts, and screams quickly spread out in the oppressive atmosphere, as if several people were besieging a girl, and both sides were very fierce and resolute, and every shot seemed to be eager to kill the other party completely.
Lu Chen frowned and looked over there for a while, at this time Ah Tu had already run to his side, and after a while, Lu Chen suddenly whispered, "It seems to be a white lotus?"
Ah Tu was noncommittal, tilted his head, and stood there motionless, not looking to ask for help.
Lu Chen thought about it, and his face also showed a little hesitation, this timing was indeed a bit too much of a coincidence, nothing happened before or after, but on the night he quietly left Xiancheng, Bai Lian was also leaving?
After Lu Chen pondered for a while, he shook his head, turned his back, patted Atu's head, and said lightly: "It has nothing to do with us, let's go." ”
With that, he went straight away, not looking further at the fierce battle in the distance.
Ah Tu snorted, but turned back to look at the side of the fierce battle of the white lotus, but no matter how you look at it, the dog's expression and eyes seem to be a little gloating, as if he keeps muttering in his heart: "Die, die......"
After muttering a few words in his mouth, Atusa ran away, and after a while, he caught up with Lu Chen in front of him, wagging his tail and looking extremely happy. A man and a dog, just like this, walked into the distant night.

"Wolf-hearted, dog-lunged, bastard! smelly man!"
Bai Lian, who was in the fierce battle, felt angry and exploded her chest for no reason, and when she saw the person and dog in the distance, she turned her head and left, and then thought about the mission she was chasing, and even before this, she thought in her heart whether she wanted to secretly prompt or the possibility of getting along with Lu Chen, and she felt that she was extremely aggrieved.
Well, the reason why she thinks this way is because she is not stupid, she can see that although Tianlan Zhenjun's dead bald head still does not fully trust Lu Chen's apprentice, but after all, Lu Chen is the only disciple he personally selected, and the fundamental purpose of what he did is actually to try his best to dispel his suspicions, and then he can really believe in Lu Chen.
Based on this alone, Lu Chen's status in the mind of the dead bald head is unmatched.
Because others don't even have the qualifications to make Tianlan Zhenjun suspicious, such as herself, Tianlan Zhenjun will not send someone to test her, because he doesn't disdain her at all and doesn't have the intention of trusting her.
She knew that Lu Chen might really have a bright future in the future, and she knew that although she seemed to be the pride of heaven and extremely talented since she was a child, all this now seemed worthless in front of the real power and top figures. She really wanted to go over to befriend Lu Chen, make friends with him now, and show favor to him so that he could take care of himself in the future...... However, she didn't expect Lu Chen to have no intention of coming over at all.
Does he look down on me?" Bai Lian felt a little frightened in her heart, and then turned to anger.
The killers around him were still fiercely besieging, Bai Lian became angry, her face was like frost, and she shot violently a little bit, and at the same time gritted her teeth and said: "your dead bald head, send me to do things without telling these dogs, is this deliberately manipulating me?"
