Chapter 159
Chapter 159: Lu Xiaoyu’s Complains (Part 2) Over a hundred armored soldiers were approaching and Lu Shu had already readied his spear but didn’t throw it. This was because he wasn’t sure of their strength and what if the spear did nothing to these armored soldiers, wouldn’t that be awkward?
When the melee soldiers from both sides collided, it was Cao Qingci who stood out. For some reason, all the armored soldiers that came into close proximity of her were suddenly slowed down!
This was the first time Lu Shu saw Cao Qingci in battle and he felt a sense of admiration for her. Each and every move of hers was smooth and with ease and precision.
Lu Shu suddenly felt a tug at his hair as he turned over. It was the little squirrel which had woken up and was standing nervously on his shoulder, terrified. Pulling at Lu Shu’s hair, the little squirrel buried its head in his hair…
Are you that scared? Lu Shu was amused. Previously, this little sh*t was throwing rocks at him and fruits at Li Yixiao. He thought that this little guy was afraid of nothing!
The previous battle was so intense but this little thing didn’t wake up. But now that it’s up to witness this ghostly battlefield, it didn’t even dare to look…
At this moment, the armored soldiers had reached Lu Shu’s side as he gleefully told the little squirrel, “Hold on tight.”
But just when Lu Shu was about to lift up his spear and join the fight, the armored soldiers avoided him and went to hack at the others…
OMG, Lu Shu felt like he was invincible in this place with his corpsedog! Even these armored soldiers wouldn’t attack him?!
He secretly observed the reactions from the others but the heavenly network practitioners were busy killing and didn’t notice. Only Lu Shu was standing on the battlefield feeling lonely…
Lu Shu was thinking that the relic was currently in the hands of Li Yixiao and that ghost general and there was no opportunity for him to obtain it. Two Class B experts were fighting and going over would certainly mean death. And even if he obtained the relic in front of everyone, he’d probably have to hand it over after exiting.
But… the armored soldiers and the ghost general were out of the palace, doesn’t this mean that I can now go in to look around?
If I can’t obtain the relic, I might be able to find something good inside. Besides weapons, Lu Shu couldn’t believe that there wasn’t anything valuable in this huge palace.
At this point, Lu Shu started acting weirdly as he slowly made his way towards to palace gate while panting. The heavenly network practitioners wouldn’t attack him and neither did the armored soldiers. And so he made his way through the battlefield like this… The practitioners at the side heard Lu Shu’s panting and thought that this daoyuan student was really brave…
Lu Shu observed his surroundings carefully and found the right time to quickly leap inside!
At this moment, the corpsedog within Lu Shu’s celestial map started vibrating. He was stunned and seeing that there was no one around him, why was the corpsedog so excited?
Hmm, could it be that Zhao Haiping was looking for revenge?!
That would be too petty, I didn’t even do much!
Just what kind of secret method did those spies use to sacrifice their lives to turn Zhao Haiping into this ghostly form, and even giving him the strength of a top Class C?
Lu Shu believed that Zhao Haiping previously didn’t have the strength of a top Class C. If not he would have gone back to his country to train and rise up to a class C expert, why would he be this desperate?
But it can’t be certain, who knew what these spies were thinking about?
But the thought that Zhao Haiping might have sneaked into the palace was troubling Lu Shu. Since there weren’t any heavenly network members around, if Zhao Haiping really attacked me, I could directly use my corpsedog to kill him.
Lu Shu might have felt that he didn’t offend Zhao Haiping but Zhao Haiping might not think so…
His original plan to assassinate the heavenly network practitioners had been foiled. From his perspective, the sacrifice of 7 lives to turn into this ghostly form was so that his strength could be raised to a top Class C and to trap the heavenly network here.
Although he couldn’t do anything to Li Yixiao, he could handle the rest of them easily.
But this guy wearing his gold chains and watches had to foil his plans by pinpointing his exact location twice! This also caused him to be hit by Li Yixiao’s punch, which almost took his life!
How to not bear a grudge?
And Zhao Haiping also noticed a problem while he observed this whole battle- that this weird teenager wasn’t attacked by the armored soldiers!
A normal bystander wouldn’t have noticed this but Zhao Haiping was different. His attention was on this teenager the whole time!
Seeing that Lu Shu had secretly entered the palace, he followed. One reason was to see what kind of strangeness was surrounding this teen and two, he wanted to assassinate him first. As to why kill Lu Shu first… It was because Lu Shu, for some unknown reason, could sense his location!
Zhao Haiping smirked as he saw Lu Shu entering the palace. His opponent was a Class E while he was a Class C. So what if this teen could see him? The difference in strength was too huge. If only this teen had stayed beside Li Yixiao the whole time, then he wouldn’t dare to lay his hands on him. But now, this teen was alone and nothing could save him!
Lu Shu was secretly checking out the palace. This place was really huge as he made his way from room to room, not planning to let anything go.
When he was in the third room, he suddenly received a weird line of distress points.
“From Lu Xiaoyu’s distress, +99, Lu Shu! Are you having too much fun to not come back?!”
Lu Shu was surprised. Why were there words behind the usual records, it was like a conversation!
He quickly looked through the other records… But they were still the same. Why is Lu Xiaoyu so special?!
“From Lu Xiaoyu’s distress, +17, Can’t sleep, Lu Shu you liar, you said you’d be back in a few days but it’s been so many!”
At this point in time, Lu Shu had received several complaints from Lu Xiaoyu. A smile suddenly developed on his face. Although he had no idea why the records would express Lu Xiaoyu’s heartfelt words, these words gave him a warm fuzzy feeling amidst this ghostly place. Someone was looking forward to his return.
Estimating the time, it should be dusk outside. Is the young lady losing sleep from missing me?
