While Lu Shu was listening to Yu Fuyao, he suddenly realized that there was some important information.
Wen Zaifou seemed to be investigating something. If not, why would he have captured Yu Fuyao’s patrons? Furthermore, he had caught three of them.
Earlier, when Wen Zaifou said that he was not the mastermind behind the scenes, Lu Shu did not fully trust him. After all, even though he could read their expressions, he would never truly know their intentions. Even if he was good in the past, he might have changed, like Duanmu Huangqi. Zhang Weiyu said that although Duanmu Huangqi was ambitious in the past, he was very loyal. He knew his limits.
He was very different from who he was now. He dared to commit a massacre in the palace.
Thus, Lu Shu did not completely trust anyone. This was a struggle for power. One could not advance simply with one’s intuition.
He was being responsible for himself by remaining doubtful.
Now, Yu Fuyao had helped Wen Zaifou prove a few things.
Furthermore, Lu Shu suddenly realized that Wen Zaifou had asked him whether he could take a look at the memorials of Yu Fuyao and Duanmu Huangqi. He really liked looking at the memorials of others. Which dignified Lord of Heaven broke the memorials of others?
Wen Zaifou looked at Yu Fuyao. “You can’t say that without any evidence.”
“Do we still need evidence?” Yu Fuyao laughed coldly.
“Then capture my patrons,” said Wen Zaifou with a wave of his hand.
“What, are you annoyed at them again? Do you want me to help you capture them?” Yu Fuyao laughed coldly. “Did you think that I would be tricked?”
Lu Shu felt that the relationship between Wen Zaifou and his patrons was very elusive…
When the aristocrats sent their armies to the battlefront, he had also sent his soldiers there. He even asked another Lord of Heaven to capture his patrons. Did you not want to be a Lord of Heaven? Did you not want your own underlings…
When Wen Zaifou heard Yu Fuyao’s words, he started to act shamelessly. “Then you decide what to do.”
“We will settle these accounts in the future.” Then, Yu Fuyao grabbed Sakurai Yaeko’s arm and walked out of Kuromon Market. The action was natural and familiar.
Before Sakurai Yaeko could understand what was happening, Yu Fuyao started to talk to her. They walked together like sisters. They almost held hands as they walked.
Lu Shu was dumbstruck when he saw this. Could females form friendships this quickly?
Of course, Lu Shu had also heard that females could become friends very easily, but they would not grow as close as men would…
Yaeko and Sakurai Yaeko walked in front, while Lu Shu and Wen Zaifou followed behind. Lu Shu suddenly felt that something was wrong. They were supposed to bring Wen Zaifou out to play. From the looks of things, Yu Fuyao had mysteriously joined them.
She did not even discuss with them whether they wanted to travel. She did not ask where they were going to either. Then, it was as if the four of them had set off together from the beginning.
The owners of the seafood stores were dumbfounded. What was this? Were you not planning to clean up the corpses on the ground? Did you leave just like that? Should they still continue their business for the day…
Then, five minutes later, a large group of members from the Collection of Gods came to Kuromon Market. They efficiently and professionally placed the corpses into body bags. They loaded the bags onto the cars and quickly left.
Then, the Collection of Gods checked all their belongings. They hoped to be able to obtain useful information.
Motegi Toshimitsu, who was cleaning up the scene after Sakurai Yaeko, could not understand the situation. If she was right, two Shen Cang Jing experts were traveling with Lu Shu and Sakurai Yaeko?!
Motegi Toshimitsu looked at the corpses on the cars. They had all died in a single blow. There were no exceptions.
According to the descriptions from the owners of the seafood shops, these people had died in the blink of an eye.
Motegi Toshimitsu did not know how strong they were, but according to the slave owners Lu Shu had killed, they were at least Class B’s.
This meant that the girl in a purple dress had the ability to kill over 30 Class B experts in an instant.
Furthermore, there were definitely Class A’s among these people.
Motegi Toshimitsu’s expression was slightly strange. She realized that ever since the Ninth Heavenly King had come to the Collection of Gods, many mysterious things had happened.
It was not that Shen Cang Jing experts were everywhere. These Shen Cang Jing experts all had some connection with the Ninth Heavenly King!
Lu Shu looked at Yu Fuyao and Sakurai Yaeko, who were chatting in a low voice. He softly asked, “Do you understand Yu Fuyao?”
Wen Zaifou shouted, “Of course I understand her. If I am serious, she might not even be able to defeat me.”
Lu Shu was puzzled. Was this the time to be proud? Who asked you whether you would be able to defeat Yu Fuyao?
“I’m saying,” said Lu Shu in a small voice, “does she have any relationship with the old King of Gods?”
“No,” said Wen Zaifou confidently. “Haven’t you seen her memorial? You definitely have, right? Heh heh, I’ve seen it before too…”
Lu Shu said, “Can this conversation continue properly?”
“There’s no relationship. The King of Gods protects himself like jade. Even his… has never touched him, let alone Yu Fuyao.” Wen Zaifou shook his head.
Lu Shu suddenly felt that there was too much information when he talked to Wen Zaifou…
He suddenly asked, “Then why don’t you tell me about it?”
“I can’t.” Wen Zaifou suddenly laughed. “I’ve told you everything. Accompany me to play. If you want to know more, listen to me!”
“Heh heh.” Lu Shu was expressionless. He felt like hitting Wen Zaifou. He thought about it and asked, “Last question for today. Does the King of Gods have any sons?”
Wen Zaifou looked like he was about to laugh. He looked at Lu Shu. “What do you think?”
Lu Shu was shocked. “What in the world…”
But Wen Zaifou did not answer him. When Lu Shu put together what Wen Zaifou had said and analyzed the information, Wen Zaifou had said that the one beside the old King of Gods had never touched him. As a young man who had received modern education, he deduced from a scientific point of view that… the old King of Gods did not have any sons.
At that moment, Wen Zaifou suddenly said, “Don’t underestimate Yu Fuyao. She is not as simple as she looks. At least, she is smarter than Duanmu Huangqi.”
Lu Shu was puzzled. He looked at Wen Zaifou. “She did save me, even though I would have been able to defeat those slave owners even without her…”
“Ah, I’m hungry again.” Wen Zaifou sighed with emotion. “Are we going to Hokkaido next? I heard that the onsen shops in Hokkaido are over 100 years old! It sounds very interesting!”
Lu Shu glanced at Wen Zaifou. His ability to change the topic was unparalleled.
