Chapter 252: Jiang Yixian’s Scheming

“Aunt Su, how do you feel now?”

He Suxin introspectively felt the changes in her body and then said, “This breakthrough indeed brought significant changes. The most direct feeling is that my senses have sharpened considerably, and my vitality has become more vigorous.”

Su Lin smiled, “That’s right, Aunt Su, you are now a true powerhouse.”

He Suxin smiled, “I approached this with a mindset of just giving it a try, never expecting it to actually succeed. Su Lin, I owe you a huge favor this time.”

Su Lin waved his hand, “It’s not much about me. You have a solid foundation, Aunt Su. I just gave you a little push.”

“That’s not how you should say it. Without your help, even ten more years wouldn’t have led to a breakthrough. Nowadays, everyone is so secretive about their methods of breaking through, only you are willing to share,” He Suxin sighed.

Her strength wasn’t the only thing that had improved; even her mindset had undergone significant changes.

Su Lin nodded and sighed, “That’s the nature of people. Everyone is afraid of being surpassed, especially by someone younger with better talent. Most old timers are upset about it.”

“Hehe... if those old monsters knew what you just said, they might challenge you to a fight.”

Su Lin confidently said, “Fight? I’m not afraid at all, in fact, I’m eager to try.”

Having just broken through, Su Lin was eager to test his strength, feeling unprecedentedly powerful, yet without a benchmark.

“With your trouble-making nature, there will be plenty of fights for you in the future. I’ve sensed a few familiar auras; I’ll go send them off now.”

“Alright, Aunt Su, go ahead.”

He Suxin nodded, picked up her long sword, pushed open the window, and flew out.

Su Lin shook his head and chuckled, “It seems those with power really don’t follow the usual paths. I like climbing out of windows too.”

After leaving the office, Xia Shiyu and Lin Xiaowan quickly gathered around.

“Su Lin, how is Aunt Su?”

“She has successfully broken through and is now going to test her strength,” Su Lin replied.

“Test her strength?”

Su Lin nodded, “With such a commotion, and with so many people in Donghai, do you think they wouldn’t have noticed?”

“Ah!”

“Don’t worry, I’ve arranged for others to protect her. See, none of them has appeared before us, right?” Su Lin smiled.

“Others? Who are they?” Lin Xiaowan asked curiously.

“That will take some time to explain,” Su Lin said, pretending to be mysterious.

“Ugh... then keep it short.”

“It can’t be kept short. How about this? I’ll explain it in detail tonight?” Su Lin raised his eyebrows playfully.

The current Lin Xiaowan was even more stunning, like a magnificent peony, exuding an aura of grandeur and luxury. Su Lin thought she was naturally charismatic. If she had been raised in ancient times, she could have easily dominated as an empress.

“Don’t... Don’t think I don’t know what you’re planning.”

“That won’t do. I’ve already unilaterally decided.” Su Lin clapped his hands.

Lin Xiaowan rolled her eyes at Su Lin, “I’m going to process some documents. The deadline is approaching fast. Is your system finished? Don’t drag us down later.”

Su Lin laughed heartily, “Me, drag you down? What are you thinking? The system was completed a long time ago.”

“Completed? How is that possible?” Lin Xiaowan covered her mouth in disbelief.
