Jiang Chen felt an incredible surge of power within him. He thought to himself, 'Now that I'm stronger than most in the Late-stage of the Mysterious Platform realm, I'm almost unbeatable below the Heavenly Origin realm here in the Mysterious Truth Continent.'
'But this isn't nearly enough,' he mused. 'I've got to hone my martial skills and secret techniques to toughen up even more.'
"First things first, I need to drop by Ning Xian's place," Jiang Chen decided. Quickly getting to his feet, he activated the Moondust Ring to hide his true power level, and headed off to Ning Xian's quarters.
The two houses were close to each other.
Before long, Jiang Chen saw Ning Xian standing under a pavilion in the yard.
The late morning sunlight cast a warm, golden glow over her, highlighting her stunning beauty. Her long hair cascaded down her back as she appeared deep in thought.
