"Well, Aunt Xiang, you have to stay calm. Can you tell me what happened in detail? Let's think of a way together. Nothing can happen to Sister Qianlie. "
Xiao Nuo had mixed feelings and didn't know what to feel. She tried hard to control her emotions and said softly.
Although everyone had tacitly agreed to each other's existence, they had confirmed their relationship in front of their future mother-in-law after all. Moreover, the mother was noble because of the son. But she should be Ding Ning's legal wife, but now she was like a mistress. It would be strange if she felt comfortable.
Although she was a jealous person, she was not a narrow-minded person. This time it was about Ding Qianlie's safety, so she immediately put aside all distracting thoughts and tried to persuade Su Ningxiang to tell the truth.
Su Ningxiang's mind was blank at the moment. She regarded Ding Qianlie as her own daughter. If she knew she was pregnant with Ding Ning's child normally, she would be so happy that she couldn't close her mouth.
But now that she got the news, she couldn't be happy. Ding Qianlie's disappearance was worrying enough, not to mention that she was pregnant with a child. Her worry index began to rise endlessly.
"Aunt Xiang, Aunt Xiang, are you still there?"
Xiao Nuo didn't hear a reply for a long time, so she hurriedly called out.
"Uh, I'm still here. Here's what happened."
Only then did Su Ningxiang come back to her senses. She recounted everything in detail without concealing anything.
"What? Aunt Xiang was kidnapped and taken to the underground base? Childe Su? You Ren was caught? "
Xiao Nuo was stunned. She didn't have time to consider who Zhu Wuxia was. Putting aside her selfish thoughts, she frowned and fell into meditation with her beautiful eyebrows furrowed.
Su Ningxiang told the story in one breath and said worriedly, "I'm not worried about the safety of You and the others now. It may be a little troublesome, but it will be investigated clearly."
"Aunt Xiang, I'm afraid it's not that simple. I always feel that this is a conspiracy against Sister Qianlie. No, seriously speaking, it should be a conspiracy against Ding Ning. Now my mind is a little confused. I'll contact you after I figure it out."
Xiao Nuo rubbed her temples and said irritably. As a criminal police officer, her logical thinking ability was still very strong. She always felt that this case was not as simple as she imagined.
"Alright, I'll think of something on my side too."
Su Ningxiang was also out of her wits. Whenever she thought of Qianlie and the child in her belly, her mind would be in a mess.
After hanging up the phone, Granny Hua carefully moved forward and said with a face full of self-blame, "Miss, it's all Granny's fault. I didn't protect you well and made you suffer."
"Granny, it has nothing to do with you. At that time, if I didn't want to leave, no one could do anything to me. That was my own choice."
Su Ningxiang forcefully calmed her mind and consoled in a gentle voice.
Granny Hua was startled. She could not help but let out a bitter smile. That's right, the Young Mistress had the protective talisman given to her by the Young Master. If she had not wanted to uncover the real culprit behind the scenes, how could those people have taken her away?
However, the enemy did not take the Young Miss as his target from the beginning to the end. Instead, he locked his target on the Young Mistress. This was why the development of the matter was out of control. The scheming of the person behind the scenes was really frightening.
This made her even more worried. She softly said, "Miss, let's return to the capital first. This is not our territory. We must not make any more mistakes."
"Territory?"
After the initial panic, Su Ningxiang had gradually regained her calmness. Granny Hua's unintentional words made a flash of light in her mind. As if she had grasped something, she revealed a thoughtful expression.
"Miss, the Old Master knows that something happened to you. He is very anxious. If it wasn't for the Old Master, he would have rushed over immediately. Let's return to the capital first."
Granny Hua looked at Su Ningxiang eagerly and said.
"Grandpa also knows?"
Su Ningxiang was startled. However, she seemed to have thought of something. Her eyes became brighter and brighter.
"Yes, the Old Master is the Master of the Su Family. If he wants to rush over, he must definitely report to the Old Master. Moreover, the matter has become so big that terrorists are involved. How could the Old Master hide it from the Old Master? If it wasn't for the Old Master, it would be impossible for Miss to see Mystery. "
Granny Hua explained in a low voice.
However, Su Ningxiang's eyes lit up. She slightly raised the corner of her mouth, revealing a soul-stirring smile. "I won't go back, at least not for the time being. Granny Hua, find a place to stay first. There are some things that I need to investigate."
"Miss, do you have a clue?"
Granny Hua said in surprise. She was too familiar with Su Ningxiang. As long as she showed this kind of smile, there must be something.
"I thought of something, but I can't be sure for the time being. Let's find a place to settle down first. I'll think about it carefully."
Su Ningxiang regained her usual calmness and indifference and said softly.
"Okay, I'll arrange a room now. The four of you come over and protect Miss. If there are any more mistakes, you can commit suicide as an apology."
Granny Hua glared and scolded the four demons among the flowers who had their heads drooped.
The four demons among the flowers nodded repeatedly. Not only did they not have any dissatisfaction, but they also revealed a relieved expression. Because they knew that Granny Hua said this meant that she would not hold them responsible for failing to protect Miss previously.
"Alright, Granny Hua. This time, I took the initiative to go with those people. It has nothing to do with the four uncles. Don't blame them."
Su Ningxiang pleaded for them like a spoiled child. In return, the four demons among the flowers looked at her with gratitude. They promised repeatedly as if they were injected with chicken blood that they would not allow anyone to hurt Miss unless they were dead.
Only then did Granny Hua feel at ease to find a suitable hotel to stay in. At an angle that the four demons among the flowers could not see, a sly look flashed across her eyes.
How could she really blame the Four Demons of the Flower Room? She deliberately played the bad guy to give her mistress a chance to win their hearts. Only in this way would the Four Demons of the Flower Room be more loyal to her mistress.
After all, these unruly guys were forcibly subdued by Her Royal Highness using a secret technique. They harbored resentment in their hearts. Even if they did not dare to do anything to harm Miss, their loyalty was far from enough.
In the Wulun Valley, the third round of the competition was in full swing. Twenty arenas appeared out of thin air and competed at the same time. Cheers, screams, and praises could be heard endlessly. It was a lively scene like a raging fire.
Without the existence of Ding Ning, the troublemaker, the competition finally entered the normal procedure of previous years. Many outstanding young warriors shone on the arenas, stood out, and became the focus of people's interest.
However, with the appearance of Ding Ning, the evildoer, no matter how excellent these young people's performance was, people still felt that there was a fly in the ointment. They could not help but compare them with Ding Ning in their hearts, but found that there was really no comparison.
Even if Gui Jianchou, who had obtained a great opportunity in the Lang Ya Secret Territory, not only had his cultivation broken through, but he had also subdued a prehistoric spirit ghost and shone brilliantly on the battle stage, it still made people feel dispirited.
Fortunately, it was already the fourth day since the end of the first round. The evildoer who broke the convention and looked down upon the crowd had not returned, which made many people secretly feel relieved.
Of course, some people were happy, and some people were worried. If the Green Cloud Security had not been indifferent and seemed to be sure that Ding Ning would not die, some people in the National Warrior's Mansion, the Great Snow Mountain, the Tianji Pavilion, the Alliance of Royals, and the Atlantis Family would have been driven crazy.
Not only them, but also Wu Xiang, Pudding, and Jiang Wuhui firmly believed that Brother Ding would never die, and he would definitely return to the world at some point like a divine soldier descending from the sky, shocking everyone.
It had to be said that although Ding Ning's appearance was only a few days, he left an indelible deep impression on all the warriors with his incredible means and strong posture.
Although many prestigious Jianghu elders were dissatisfied with him, when they mentioned him, they had to praise him with complicated feelings, "His son should be like Ding Ning."
In view of the cruel high mortality rate in the first round of the competition, not counting the 8,000 people who broke the rules and entered, of the 18,000 people who entered first, less than 10,000 people came out alive. The mortality rate was nearly 50%, and it was maintained under the circumstance that Ding Ning lent a helping hand at the critical moment.
Many people said with certainty that if Ding Ning did not help, the mortality rate in the first round of the competition would definitely reach more than 90%, and it was even possible that all the people would be killed.
Of course, it was impossible to have a 100% mortality rate. After all, there were still a small number of people who did not go to the center of the desert to encounter the ant colony, but the number of this group of people could be counted on one hand, only a few hundred people.
The high mortality rate in the first round made all the forces feel disappointed, so the second round of the competition was relatively simple. Although the elimination rate was more terrible, there was absolutely no life-threatening danger.
In ancient times, the Stairway to Heaven was a means for the major sects to test the cultivation progress of their disciples at the end of the year.
To put it bluntly, it was a stair-type spiritual tool that emitted pressure and gravity. It was a testing tool to test the physical strength, perseverance, cultivation, and other comprehensive strength of the warriors.
The higher the stairs the disciples climbed, the greater the pressure and gravity they had to bear. Finally, according to the height of the stairs they could climb, their cultivation achievements in a year would be evaluated.
But with the development of the times, the lack of Body Refining Methods made people more and more inclined to Qi Refining. Few warriors refined their bodies. This kind of spiritual tool could not be used for fighting, and every year, it needed to be maintained at a high price, so it gradually disappeared from the stage of history.
Only a few major sects and forces that had inherited the Body Refining Methods for a long time would have some. But usually, they were shelved and no one cared about them.
But this time, due to the restriction of cultivation in the Heaven-accessing Place, the warriors with strong physical strength had a great advantage. Therefore, after the organizing committee reached a consensus, the Tianyin Temple took out the Stairway to Heaven with 999 steps, which was specially used for the assessment. It took them less than a day to eliminate 3,000 of the 5,000 contestants, and two more days to enter the third round of the competition by drawing lots.
The 20 places of the Green Cloud Security were unshakable. The Stairway to Heaven might be a severe test for the warriors with weak bodies, but it was no pressure for the Demon Tribe who cultivated Qi and blood and physical strength. But in order not to attract attention, they had to pretend that it was very difficult. They barely climbed up to the 500th step, and then pretended to be powerless and stopped.
But even so, it still caused an uproar. After all, only a few hundred people could climb up to the 500th step.
Although Ling Yun did not specialize in physical strength, the foundation of her cultivation was the Barbarian Physical Training Method. Moreover, Ding Ning specially set up a gravity area on Paradise Island for everyone to sharpen their willpower.
Therefore, she climbed up to the 600th step very easily. After the 600th step, she gradually felt that it was difficult. Finally, she stopped at the 718th step and ranked eighth in the second round of the competition. Of course, it was also because she did not want to be too conspicuous. Otherwise, she could not say that she could reach the top, but it was not a problem for her to climb to the 900th step.
