Book 6: Chapter 16: Bai Qiuran Can't Fly
“Strength?”
Lu Wu’s voice sounded disappointed.
“In other words, there is no other supernatural power, right…nothing, just follow me, let me see how strong you really are.”
Bai Qiuran looked at Jiang Lan, and the little girl replied coldly:
“Go! Lu Wu is not only in charge of the capital under the sky but also in charge of the Nine Departments of the Sky. He is responsible for granting positions for new gods on behalf of the Heavenly Emperor.”
“For His Majesty, you should use the honorific title.”
Lu Wu got up from the ground with some helplessness. The tall body comparable to ninety-nine tigers in the legend stepped on the ground, but silently.
He turned around and walked up to a white jade staircase next to the sky. Bai Qiuran glared at Jiang Lan, then he followed Lu Wu’s footsteps to a platform somewhere higher in the sky.
There was a hollow in the center of this platform with a huge black rock in it. Lu Wu came to the platform and pointed to the huge rock.
“Go, try to lift that huge rock.”
Bai Qiuran looked at it and then walked to the edge of the giant rock. He stretched out his hand to test it, and the giant rock shook without feeling how heavy.
Considering that the gods are at least nine hundred feet from the body, this kind of giant rock may be just a dumbbell for exercising their fingers. Therefore after Bai Qiuran thought about it, he thought this should be done very easily. So he raised this huge rock with one hand.
“Huh? You are quite strong.”
Lu Wu’s voice became softer.
“This huge rock has supernatural power attached to it, and its weight is comparable to some particularly towering mountains on the ground. An ordinary god can’t lift it up. I didn’t expect you to do so relaxedly.”
Bai Qiuran was stunned for a moment and stood there holding a huge rock with one hand. He didn’t know should he continue to hold it or not, feeling very embarrassed.
However, Lu Wu ignored his feelings, but directly said:
“Since you can move the mountain so easily, then you can try again, how far can you throw this huge rock. Here, there is the sky outside, just throw it away.”
Bai Qiuran glanced at the shining galaxy outside, a little hesitant:
“The stars outside are all gods, what if the rock hit them?”
“Ha, the vastness of this galaxy is beyond your imagination. You look at these stars like small spots of light close at hand, but in fact, they are thousands of miles away from you.”
Lu Wu laughed and said:
“Today, if you can throw it to another star, let alone take all responsibility, I will inform His Majesty directly and give you the position of a divine general.”
“Remember what you just said.”
Bai Qiuran tossed the rock ball in his hand like a bowling ball.
“I said it.”
Lu Wu nodded.
Bai Qiuran raised the rock ball and threw it out with a bang.
He didn’t use the energy in the Purple Palace, but simply used the muscle power of his body, but even so, the huge rock still blasted in the air as soon as it shot it.
The shock wave visible to the naked eye spread. Even in the sky, you can see the huge white ring appearing above the sky, and in the center of the white ring, a white trajectory traverses the sky straightly, interspersed into the distant bright galaxy.
Immediately afterward, accompanied by the toothy collision, various star gods’ curses came from the galaxy.
“Oh fuck, what is it?”
“My waist! My belt was knocked through!”
“Which one of the meteors is this? Is there no brake? I must go to His Majesty to complain!”
“Three-Legged Crow, be careful! It is coming towards you!”
Listening to the chaotic voice coming from the galaxy, Lu Wu took a step back, then looked at Bai Qiuran with an overjoyed expression, and said:
“Yes, yes, you really did it. The gods speak for themselves, so I’ll go back and tell His Majesty the Emperor about you!”
“Thank you, great god Lu Wu.”
Bai Qiuran arched his hands to Lu Wu.
He thought about it just now, and felt that in this age dominated by the gods, seeking godhood in the Heavenly Court would also be good for him to collect the intelligence of the first Heaven Jealousy.”
As for the hostile relationship between the gods and the human race, he never said that he wouldn’t betray.
Lu Wu praised Bai Qiuran again. Before the words were finished, there was a large number of stars on the bright galaxy side, which suddenly deviated from the established trajectory, and flew towards this side. They gradually transformed in the process of flying. Become a lot of tall, tall, and different-looking gods, surrounded this high platform.
“Which fucking bastard threw the stone?!”
While shouting and cursing, they looked down at the platform, only to see Bai Qiuran and Lu Wu standing on the platform.
“Great god Lu Wu?”
The moment they saw Lu Wu, these star gods all flinched, and then they asked:
“What are you doing here? And this one is…”
“I’ll introduce to you, this is a newly born god.”
Lu Wu stretched out his paws to push Bai Qiuran, and Bai Qiuran also took a few steps forward, arching his hands to the surrounding gods:
“Hello everyone, my name is Bai Qiuran.”
“His supernatural power is infinite strength.”
Lu Wu smiled and said:
“The stone just now was thrown out when I asked him to try his power. I am going to recommend him to be a divine general… You guys, is that okay?”
A group of gods looked at each other, then all nodded and said:
“Great goodness.”
Then, as if they had forgotten their unpleasantness, they praised Bai Qiuran and Lu Wu. They praised Bai Qiuran’s supernatural power and boundless future. They also praised Lu Wu’s vision, and he was good at discovering talented ones for His Majesty the Emperor.
Lu Wu was very proficient in shirking with them for a long time, and after receiving a few more social meetings, finally, let these gods go away.
Then he turned to ask Bai Qiuran’s name, and then said to Bai Qiuran:
“Let’s go, I will write the memorial, it will take a few days to wait for His Majesty to approve it. During this time, you will return to the ground first, and wait patiently… Sorry.”
Lu Wu asked Bai Qiuran to go back first, while it stepped on the cloud and flew toward the higher-level heavenly palace, seemingly to deal with the follow-up affairs.
Bai Qiuran followed its words and first returned to the square in front of the capital.
Looking around, Bai Qiuran did not find Jiang Lan.
“Has she gone back already?”
Bai Qiuran’s mood was a little bit depressed. The little girl was not relatives with him, so sending him here and introducing him to Lu Wu should be considered an extremely benevolent thing, but…
“Damn, I still can’t fly now…”
Bai Qiuran sighed as he walked along the jade ladder towards the Milky Way below. Although he had passed through the pressure of heaven and had a little True Qi, the quantity was too little for him to fly, and the quality was too high for a normal flying sword.
He couldn’t find a sword that could bear his True Qi, so Bai Qiuran’s current shortcoming could not be made up.
“Can I just jump down?”
Standing on the edge of the Milky Way, Bai Qiuran stretched out his feet to tiptoe.
“Will it fall to the ground…”
“what are you doing?”
A cold voice suddenly rang behind him.
“I’m thinking about how to reduce the impact when landing…Huh?”
Bai Qiuran turned his head and saw Jiang Lan standing behind him, and said in a daze:
“Did you not leave? I thought you went back by yourself.”
