Chapter Twenty-Three: Mutual Distrust

In view of the fact that the other three had not adjusted their mentality, Shang Xue finally took the initiative to ask: "What is their purpose this time?

Jiang Xiaoyu thought for a while, and he divided the information into two parts, one part that could be told to them, and the other part that he wanted to hide.

After all, allies are only allies after all, and the important thing now is to open the layer of the Ascending Pavilion that has a climbing bridge. Jiang Xiaoyu didn't know how many floors the bridge was on, so he could only hope that the number of floors was lower now.

Under normal circumstances, the most important treasure in a secret realm must be the highest layer, and the same is true for the Heavenly Pavilion.

But the problem is that the value of the bridge in the Ascending Pavilion is not the highest. Because even if you own the Ascending Pavilion, you still need to go through a certain layer by yourself to obtain the things inside, and what you get to get the Ascending Bridge is only the right to open it.

"I heard a few pieces of information when they were in a meeting, first, their battle of the hundred clans is indeed just a disguise, their real purpose is to attract the attention of the public, in fact, the main thing is the realization of your Fog Province, the real purpose is to open a secret realm, there is an extremely powerful treasure in this secret realm, this treasure can promote a person to a fifth-order ability, these families now know that I am a fifth-order strength, so they are considering whether to take the initiative to tell you the information, so that your provincial lord will also come to Taiwan to join this operation to balance the influence I bring, they don't know that I have become an ally with your Fog Province, so my opinion is that it is a good choice to let you provincial masters come, if you really have some more practical items, it can improve the overall strength of your fog province. Secondly, the current background of your Fog Province is indeed a little worse. Through, this secret expedition. There must be more than this item in it, if there are other props or items such as genius earth treasures, it can greatly improve your strength and accelerate your growth, and the biggest difference between you and these families is that their strongest is only the fourth order, and they need to huddle together to keep warm to break through this maze. And the combat troops of your fog province have me and your provincial lord two level 5 ability people to protect you, even if you encounter some more dangerous organs or tests, the possibility of survival will be greatly improved, and the danger level will be minimized, I just suggest specific, how do you want to act, you can discuss. ”

After Jiang Xiaoyu said these words, he took the initiative to step aside, everyone here knew that at this distance, there were many ways to find out what the other party said.

But Jiang Xiaoyu's gesture is obviously to tell the people of the combat troops in Fog Province that I don't want to participate in your decision.

After Jiang Xiaoyu did this, several people in the fog province were not ready to hide it. I didn't deliberately lower the sound or make sound insulation, but we started to discuss it directly face to face.

said that it was a discussion, but in fact, it was Shang Xue and Sun Jiao who made the decision, one of them was the vice captain, and the other was the role of the team's think tank.

As for Xu Ting and Su Jing, their minds are still on the strength they have just improved, although their strength cannot be called skyrocketing, it will take some time to adapt to the improved strength.

Sun Jiao opened her mouth and said, "I think this matter is okay." One is that these people are already within the scope of the rule of Fog Province, but they want to do this kind of thing, let's participate in this operation, organize them, it is also an important work of the combat troops of Fog Province, and secondly, these treasures in the secret realm are indeed very important to the improvement of strength, now the decision of the four of us to participate in this operation, I will make it for you, the four of us must participate in this cheats, after all, this kind of thing is missed once, and the second time I don't know when, but the provincial master should not participate, I have reservations, Shang Xue, you give a little advice。 ”

Shang Xue pondered for a while when she heard this, nodded and said, "I think it is still necessary for the provincial master to participate in this secret realm, even if this Jiang Xiaoyu is now our ally, but when something happens." His priority must still be himself. Therefore, it is very important to have a fifth-order ability that really belongs to oneself, and it will be much easier to act, whether it is the safety of the team, or the quantity and quality of the treasures obtained, comprehensively consider reporting the matter to the provincial master, if the province is mainly coming, it is naturally the best, now the fog province is no longer as needed to perform tasks every day to maintain the safety of some islands like before, the fog province is already on the right track, it doesn't matter if there is no ruler in just a few days, and even if something happens, isn't it blue? Although he is more aggressive when he carries out tasks, her ability has to be said to be very strong in the ocean. ”

When Shang Xue said these words, her voice was not lowered, and she didn't mind Jiang Xiaoyu hearing it at all, after all, whether it was her or Jiang Xiaoyu, both of them knew that if they really encountered danger to their lives or something that Jiang Xiaoyu couldn't give up, then Jiang Xiaoyu's choice must be to prioritize his own interests.

It's not once or twice that the four of them came out to carry out the mission, and after a brief discussion, the decision to pass unanimously at one time was to return to the Fog Province to report and see if the Fog Province Governor could be allowed to participate in the operation.

Having made a decision, Sun Jiao walked to Jiang Xiaoyu's side and said: "We have already decided, I will go back to report the situation, the provincial lord will most likely participate, I will take these people back to report the situation, the distance between the two places is not very far, if the provincial lord leads us here, it may not take an hour." ”

Jiang Xiaoyu nodded when he heard this, he was still very satisfied with the decision he made for them, and the next thing he needed to do was how to get these families to change the location of the contention to the interior of the Heavenly Pavilion.

Just as he was thinking, Shang Xue came over and said, "Deputy team, you can take the two of them back with you to report the information this time, the two of them need to adapt to their own strength, and I will stay to collect some information." ”

Sun Jiao was stunned when she heard this, and said, "You stay alone, how dangerous it is for you to stay alone as a second-level powerhouse." As soon as she finished asking, Sun Jiao saw Shang Xue's eyes on Jiang Xiaoyu, and instantly reacted, and asked suspiciously, "Do you want Jiang Xiaoyu to protect you?"

Shang Xue nodded, covered her mouth and smiled, and put on a shy look: "That's right, doesn't Jiang Xiaoyu want me to be his girlfriend? ”

The first half of Shang Xue's sentence was still said to Sun Jiao, and the last half of the sentence was to fall in love with Jiang Xiaoyu.

looked at Shang Xue, who was smiling like a little fox. Jiang Xiaoyu nodded. Sun Jiao looked at the two of them in a bit of confusion, but decided not to ask anything, so she said: "In this case, Shang Xue, you live in my current room, it's okay, as long as you don't go out and walk, no one will find out." ”

Xu Ting and Su Jing did not leave the space, but chose to let Sun Jiao take them back to the space.

Sun Jiao stretched out her hand and slid away from the space, falling directly into the sea from the room, using her own ability to continuously advance towards the Fog Province.

In this way, only Shang Xue and Jiang Xiaoyu were left in the room.

Jiang Xiaoyu looked at Shang Xue with a smile on his face, a wicked smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, raised his hand, pinched his cheek, and said with a wicked smile: "Although I don't know what you think, you must not play with fire." After all, what I'm best at is fire magic, and no matter how you play it, you can't beat me. ”

As he spoke, a ray of golden light appeared under Jiang Xiaoyu's eyes, his pupils turned silvery-white, and the power of imprisonment was activated again.

Shang Xue's whole person was confined in place, unable to move.

Jiang Xiaoyu made a Shang Xue up and down, frowning slightly.

Shang Xue's clothes were very simple, just ordinary Fog Province combat uniforms.

Jiang Xiaoyu thought that Shang Xue stayed for some ulterior purpose this time, and that he would have some props or information on him, but after some observation, there was nothing.

With a meaningless snap of his fingers, the confinement on Shang Xue's body was lifted, because it was the imprisoned Shang Xue, Jiang Xiaoyu had no restrictions on many rules, so Shang Xue did not have any sense of fear.

Shang Xue, who was inexplicably imprisoned once, did not have a dissatisfied look on his face at all, but came to Jiang Xiaoyu's side with a smile, and said delicately: "If you want to know anything, just ask me directly, I'm still a girl, it's not right for you to be so rude to me." ”

Looking at Shang Xue, who had a posture of victory, Jiang Xiaoyu thought about what had happened, looked a little stunned, and asked, "Could it be that this time I stayed just for this incident?"

Seeing that Jiang Xiaoyu realized the truth of the matter, Shang Xue couldn't help laughing: "Yes, I just did it for this, just now in the space, you made me very angry when you used me as a reason, this time when I come back with revenge." ”

Jiang Xiaoyu said helplessly: "That's because I am a righteous gentleman, if I change to someone else, a delicate girl is imprisoned in place and can't do anything, you will suffer." ”

Shang Xue restrained the smile on her face, looked at Jiang Xiaoyu and said, "Because I know it's you, I'm not afraid of this." ”

Jiang Xiaoyu was a little helpless, he felt that he had just used Shang Xue as his girlfriend as a reason to improve the strength of the fighters in the Fog Province seemed to be a little wrong. If it's an enemy, it's okay, for him, a second-level ability can wipe him out of the world in the blink of an eye.

But the problem is that this is an ally, Jiang Xiaoyu stood up and said: "So you wait here for Sun Jiao to come back, I will leave first, it is not good for lonely men and widows to stay in one room." ”

Shang Xue asked with some confusion: "Hmm, what's wrong, aren't you my boyfriend? Just now, you even settled the relationship between my sisters, why don't you recognize it now?"

Jiang Xiaoyu raised his eyebrows when he heard this, his eyes swept over Shang Xue's proud figure, and said in his heart, you little girl really want to play with me?

Looking at Jiang Xiaoyu's aggressive eyes, Shang Xue hurriedly restrained the smile on his face, he felt that if he continued to play like this, he might have to get rid of it.

So he hurriedly changed the topic and asked: "Jiang Xiaoyu, I feel that you have concealed some information and not told us, now that Sun Jiao and the others have left, aren't you going to say something more to me?"

Jiang Xiaoyu didn't deny it, and said directly: "I do have some information that I haven't told you, but I can't say these things now, to be honest, I haven't completely believed you, if you sell or leak this part of the information." It's not sure what the outcome will be, and I don't want to do something that happens suddenly. ”

Shang Xue was not angry, because if she wanted to talk about distrust, she actually didn't trust this Jiang Xiaoyu even more in her heart, from Shang Xue's point of view, the cooperation between the strong and the weak must have some scheme, but just now Jiang Xiaoyu has been giving and has not asked for anything, which is an extremely obvious problem in Shang Xue's opinion.

This situation shows that in an unknown place or a dangerous future, a few of them will play a role.

This uncertainty and uncertainty make her a little awkward, she is an information collector, once there is information in front of her, but the paper in front of her is not broken, this feeling makes her particularly uncomfortable.
