?


    "Huff…. Huff…. I-I can''t run anymore…" Su Ling lumped on the ground as she was tired.


    Wang Chen and Su Ling, after separating from Liang Wei, ran continuously for two hours with their full speed and Su Ling had almost exhausted her Qi so she needed some time to recover.


    On the other hand, Wang Chen''s face didn''t show a tired look like Su Ling. He was only matching her speed and his Cultivation base is higher than her and so he only used 40% of his Qi.


    ''It should be nearby….'' Wang Chen thought as he looked around the nearby area. ording to Wang Chen, if he wasn''t interfering in the plot. Then both our righteous protagonist Liang Wei and Su Ling would havee here. Why was he sure about it?


    It was mainly becauseSu Ling would have exhaustedjust like nowand couldn''t go any further without recovering and as those elders would be on their tail so they can''t recover in the open and Liang Wei could have find a hidden ce where also lies his opportunity and currently Wang Chen was trying to find that hidden ce.


    "Will Liang Wei be okay ?" Su Ling spoke in a worried tone.


    "He will be safe as we have escaped from there so he can fight openly and I''m sure if the situation is not in his favour then he will find a chance to escape from those Elder''s." Wang Chen reassuredin a confident tone.


    If the protagonist couldn''t protect himself from some third rate mob characters then who in the world is safe.


    "Do you see any ce where we could hide and recover?" Wang Chen gave up as he couldn''t find the hidden ce and there was a doubt in his heart about what he spected about the plot and if his spection turned out to be wrong then he would notonly lost the opportunity but there is a slight chance that one of the elders will make the way towards them and it will be dangerous for only him.


    Yes! For only him because Su Ling is a heroine. She could be left alive as the Elder can capture her and take back to Su Song but what about a third party like him. He is sure that if they get caught then he will be the first one to die.


    A wave of surprise washed over Su Ling as she heard Wang Chen''s words. It was the first time he had actually asked for her input. Normally, when faced with difficult situations, Wang Chen and Liang Wei would hold their secret discussions, leaving her feeling invisible, like an insignificant bystander.


    But this time was different. In an instant, Su Ling sprang to her feet, excitement painting her expression. It was as if her previous weariness had evaporated into thin air. She always wanted to help but had always been a burdenand now this was her chance to help, how could she miss such a chance?


    "I will find a hidden ce for us." She said out loud.


    "Shhh…. Before you could even find a hidden ce. We will be discovered so if you have something to say, say it in a low voice." Wang Chen reprimanded her.


    Su Ling was slightly embarrassed, she was excited because she can do something as well other than being a burden and but just now she spoke out loud in a situation where the enemies were trying to find them and she was making it easy for them by telling them their location.


    Nodding her head she walked away from Wang Chen to search for a ''hidden ce''.


    After she left, Wang Chen couldn''t help but think, how the hell does heaven choose protagonists and heroines?


    …


    *Thud*


    With a thunderous crash, Su Song''s hand struck the wooden table in a fit of rage. "How in the realms did you fools manage to let three measly mice slip through your fingers?" he bellowed, his voice dripping with frustration.


    Before him stood a shadowy figure, an elder tasked with delivering the news of Su Ling and herpanions'' escape from the city. The elder warned that two others were hot on their trail, ready to strike when the trio let their guard down. At first, Su Song''s mood lightened at the prospect of their capture being imminent.


    But s, the shadowy elder''s expression darkened as he ryed thetest development. One of the pursuing elders had suffered an unexpected injury, allowing the trio to slip from their clutches once again. The newsnded like a blow to Su Song''s already frayed patience, fueling his anger and igniting a relentless fire within him.


    "And what are those useless elders doing now who reported?" Su Song asked in annoyance, he knows that now being angry will not solve the situation so it is better to find a solution for it.


    "Elder ping said that the trio escaped in two groups, Su Ling went with that guy called Wang Chen and Liang Wei escaped after injuring the other elder and bought time till Wang Chen and Su Ling escaped. So Elder ping went in the direction where Su Ling and Wang were, and the second elder was injured so he is recovering now." Shadow elder reported.<novelsnext></novelsnext>


    After hearing the shadow elder words, Su Song sighed in relief since he knows that the weaker group is of Wang Chen and Su Ling and it is better to eliminate them first and kill them before they escape from the dense forest. As for Liang Wei, he will set a bait for him.


    …


    "FOUND IT! FOUND IT" Su Ling shouted out loud.


    Hearing her shouting, Wang Chen sighed, "This girl…." But then it was reced with a smile and went towards Su Ling.


    "Didn''t I tell you to not shout out loud?" Wang Chen spoke asappeared near Su Ling.


    "Sorry"


    Su Ling offered an apology before pointing towards a sizable stone. "So, after searching for hidden spots for a while," she began, "I eventually grew tired. I decided to take a seat on that stone, and to my surprise, it sank slightly downward. Curiosity piqued, I nudged it a bit, and lo and behold, I discovered a substantial hole beneath! With a little more sliding, it revealed a pathway leading underground."


    Wang Chen then looked at the hole leading underground. He was sure that this was the cewhere opportunity could be hidden and it could be only found by the people who are blessed.


    "You did great work." Wang Chen patted her head.


    Upon hearing Wang Chen''s remark, Su Ling''s smile grew, revealing a confident and nonchnt demeanor that seemed to say, "This is nothing to me."


    "Now, let us not squander any more time," Wang Chen reminded her, his voice filled with urgency. He approached the hole, revealing a path that descended into the underground. The incline of the pathway made it unnecessary to jump, allowing them to navigate by sliding smoothly along its course.


    Wang Chen tightly sped Su Ling''s wrist, pulling her towards the gaping hole. "Hold on tight, Su Ling! We''re going in!" he eximed, his voice filled with determination.


    As they ventured into the darkness, their bodies slid swiftly downward, the speed exhrating and unnerving. In the midst of the rapid descent, Su Ling couldn''t contain her fear, her voice echoing through the tunnel. "Wang Chen, I''m scared!" she cried out, her grip on his hand tightening.


    The darkness seemed to stretch endlessly, and Su Ling''s imagination ran wild. Panic surged through her veins as she envisioned a bottomless abyss, falling thousands of meters into an unknown void. A cry escaped her lips, a mix of fear and despair.


    But then, a glimmer of hope pierced the darkness below. "Look!" Wang Chen shouted, excitement in his tone. "There''s a bright blue light ahead!"


    The light grew brighter and more enchanting with each passing second. Their descent came to an abrupt halt as theynded on the ground, a mere five feet below the exit of the hole they had entered. Su Ling''s eyes remained shut tightly, anticipating the impact of a fall that would leave her in a vegetative state. With a sudden thud, she heard the impact and hesitantly opened her eyes.


    As Su Ling''s eyes fluttered open, she was greeted by the sight of Wang Chen standing there, his face contorted into a mischievous grin. In that instant, she realized the truth: they had only fallen a measly five meters. Embarrassment flooded her cheeks, turning them a fiery shade of red. She wished for a hole to magically appear so she could bury herself in it, never to be seen again.
