At night, over 5000 people from the Wei Wu Army gathered. They sat on the parade square and waited for Lu Shu to arrive.
They had wanted to participate in the Yellowstone National Park remains, but were stopped by Lu Shu. Putting aside how they would travel there, if the entire Wei Wu Army participated in the remains, the overseas secret practitioners would not dare to enter. How would Lu Shu earn distress points?
When Lu Shu thought about his distress points, he could not help but feel a heartache…
The Wei Wu Army had been training hard during this period of time. Furthermore, Zhang Weiyu learned about leading an army from the Heavenly Network. Of course, not everything from the Heavenly Network could be used. Thus, Zhang Weiyu had to learn from the Heavenly Network’s strengths to offset his own weaknesses.
As the former leader of the Imperial Palace Soldiers, his experience in gathering Practitioners to fight also amazed the Heavenly Network and the rest.
In reality, the Heavenly Network did not have much experience in this aspect. Thus, they learned from each other.
At that moment, over 5000 soldiers from the Wei Wu Army sat with their legs crossed and their bodies upright. The parade square was silent. The bandits of Azure Dragon Village, and the slave army of the Wei Wu Army, had all become true soldiers.
These were brave soldiers who had defeated strong enemies and trampled the palace. They carried out orders and heeded prohibitions.
The strength of the Wei Wu Army had been diverse. But now, only two people had advanced to Rank One, the rest were all Rank Two experts.
There was probably no army who was on par with them in terms of pure strength, even in the Luniverse.
The patrolling soldiers from the Heavenly Network curiously looked on. They were very familiar with the Wei Wu Army. Typically, there was no regular routine among them. What was happening today?
The Wei Wu Army and the Heavenly Network integrated very well. There were also conflicts between them, but they were private conflicts.
When they bathed with hot water, it was rather cramped. They occasionally bumped into one another on accident. This was very normal. They got over it after a few sentences of complaints.
The veterans grew closer amidst this interaction. Recently, they had started to call one another brothers. They treated one another as comrades.
Furthermore, the Heavenly Network soldiers were rather won over. Each member of the Wei Wu Army was on the same level as a Heavenly King, but they did not use their combat power to win others over.
Now, the Heavenly Network was interested in the stories of the Ninth Heavenly King leading the Wei Wu Army across the Luniverse that they heard in the canteen. For example, they listened to stories of how Lu Shu had a mountain named after him, and of tunnel warfare. They also listened to how they eliminated the aristocrat armies and how the gambling dens in the palace were.
All of these stories were soul-stirring. They even caused the soldiers of the Heavenly Network to want to follow Lu Shu to the Luniverse.
This did not sound like much to them. Lu Shu was the Ninth Heavenly King. They would not go wrong if they followed Lu Shu.
To the soldiers from the Heavenly Network, listening to Lu Shu’s stories in the Luniverse was like listening to a storyteller. The heroes in the stories were able to turn ill fate into good luck, and danger into opportunity.
The Earth was too ordinary. The Luniverse seemed more interesting.
Of course, the most uncomfortable part about the interactions between the Heavenly Network and the Wei Wu Army was the age difference. The Heavenly Network soldiers were in their twenties, while the average age of the Wei Wu Army soldiers was 80. Thus, it was sometimes tough to have a conversation.
For example, Li Heitan looked like a frank person. But once he started to argue, he would say, “I am the same age as your grandfather. Can’t you give in to me? What if I get so angry that I start to bleed? Who will take responsibility?”
They had nothing to say. They even wanted to hit someone…
The soldiers that the Ninth Heavenly King led would definitely not be earnest…
The Heavenly Network was slightly curious. Why was the Wei Wu Army suddenly sitting on the parade square? Usually, they would be in the dorms chatting.
At that moment, the night sky seemed to have been forcefully opened up by someone. Lu Shu stepped out from the void and stood in front of the Wei Wu Army.
The soldiers from the Heavenly Network understood. The Ninth Heavenly King was about to give them a lecture. No wonder they were so obedient…
Lu Shu looked at Zhang Weiyu and said, “Everyone, pack your things. When the space pathway opens, we will go and kill Duanmu Huangqi.”
Zhang Weiyu looked up and said, “Yes sir!”
“No need to be so nervous.” Lu Shu laughed. “We are just killing Duanmu Huangqi.”
This sounded tyrannical to Zhang Weiyu and the rest. Duanmu Huangqi was the West Lord of Heaven, but they were “just” killing a Lord of Heaven.
Zhang Weiyu had seen many tyrannical people.
But he had only seen a few people as tyrannical as this. There was the old King of Gods, the head of the Sword Hut, and Lu Shu in front of him.
Were there a total of three people? Zhang Weiyu was not sure. He felt that there were probably two people.
Earlier, he had been telling Liu Yizhao that this person was a fake. He was definitely not “that person”. Liu Yizhao, you are wrong.
Back then, on King Lu Mountain, Zhang Weiyu had almost given up his freedom…
When Liu Yizhao had just arrived, he decided to follow Lu Shu. Zhang Weiyu went through great pains to explain to him. In the end, he was tricked by Liu Yizhao’s understanding. It made him seem like a scammer…
Suddenly, Corpsedog emerged from Lu Shu’s finger and flew around. Lu Shu felt that the objects in the celestial map were very recognizable.
It was precisely because Lu Shu felt that the weapons in the celestial map were too recognizable that he did not use them in the Luniverse.
When he fought his way to the palace on the limestone road, his Sparrow Shade had been hidden in the dust. The rest of his sword had killed all his opponents. It could be said that the people who had seen Sparrow Shade, Corpsedog, and Concealed Arrow were all dead.
Back then, Lu Shu had a guess, but was not willing to admit it. How could a person who did not even want to become a Heavenly King, and a person who simply wanted to live his days peacefully, be willing to accept an even more frightening identity?
When he realized that only he and Lu Xiaoyu were able to go through the celestial gate, he had understood many things, but was not willing to tell anyone. He did not even ask Lu Xiaoyu how she had come.
Did he go to the Sword Hut just to find the way home? He also wanted to go to the palace and the Sword Hut to see what he was like in the past, he also wanted to know what plans had been plotted against him.
Lu Shu was not foolish. He had never been foolish.
To many people, a title associated with the throne was a form of honor. It represented the power as the ruler of the Luniverse. But to the Luniverse, it was a burden.
If he went back to search for something he had personally ended in his previous life, it would be a joke!
Lu Shu calmly looked at Zhang Weiyu. “Do you recognize this?”
Zhang Weiyu was dumbfounded. “… what is this?”
Lu Shu was speechless.
