After Lu Xiaoyu heard what Lu Shu had to say, she left. She did not continue going to Port Artyom with Lu Shu. The person that Lu Shu did not want to go to Port Artyom with the most was Lu Xiaoyu, as the controller had taken photos of Lu Xiaoyu and her souls. She might still be part of their plan.
Suddenly, Lu Shu heard some noise in the distance. He turned around and saw a few burly secret practitioners pinning another secret practitioner to the ground. They were taking his things away from him. The secret practitioner on the floor struggled, but the secret practitioners pinning him down seemed to be stronger. He could not even fight back.
“You dare to steal from your comrade!” The secret practitioner on the floor shouted, but it was of no use.
“Comrades or not, everyone is here to earn money. The large organizations don’t even think highly of our lives. What gives you the right?”
The secret practitioners found a few pieces of chocolate on him. “If you still have chocolates hidden somewhere, I suggest that you take them out.”
After they obtained the chocolates, the secret practitioners turned and looked at the other secret practitioners. Their eyes were full of aggression.
Lu Shu observed this with a cold eye. These people were dim-witted even in this chaos. They would restrain themselves under normal social circumstances. But in this chaotic world, they had no misgivings, especially in the world of the secret practitioners, where the weak were the prey of the strong.
There were no morals among the secret practitioners. The strongest would decide the truth.
Lu Shu did not involve himself in this. He typically would not care about this. Furthermore, these people had infiltrated the Changbai Mountains. Lu Shu earnestly wished that this group of secret practitioners would start killing one another.
The group of secret practitioners was very far away. Lu Shu was not worried that he would be involved in their problem. His only wish now was for the secret practitioners to go to Port Artyom. He would blend in with the crowd and lie low.
At that time, the burly secret practitioners and the secret practitioners beside them started to argue, but they did not fight. It was as if they enjoyed this. They were laughing out loud.
Needless to say, Lu Shu was amazed at how strange humans were. The secret practitioners could kill them if they worked together, but no one made a move.
When one of the secret practitioners saw that his items were going to be taken away, he suddenly turned and ran. But before long, the burly secret practitioners caught up to him and punched the back of his head. The secret practitioner who had escaped fell on the floor spasming.
The secret practitioner who had attacked him was dumbfounded. He turned the secret practitioner around and checked for his breath. “He’s dead!”
The secret practitioner who had killed him seemed to be in a panic. It was as if this was his first time killing someone. He had just wanted to bully him. He did not think that he would actually kill him.
One of the burly secret practitioners laughed. “Oh well. That saves us the trouble of him struggling. Let’s see what he has.”
Life was worth nothing to them. The murderer seemed to be in a panic, but this panic slowly turned into excitement.
Lu Shu laughed coldly. This was human nature.
Suddenly, Lu Shu was dumbfounded. He saw Cloud Yi in the crowd. She was still following him, and was still wearing the same makeup.
Yesterday, Lu Shu had observed the crowd carefully and realized that Cloud Yi had disappeared. But today, she was among the crowd again. She had even reapplied her makeup.
But Lu Shu had some hope. Cloud Yi was beside the secret practitioner who had just been killed. The crowd would definitely be attracted by her looks, even after concealing her exceptionally beautiful appearance.
As expected, one of the secret practitioners was dumbfounded when he saw her. He smiled and stretched out his hand to grab Cloud Yi.
He was so lucky to have encountered a beautiful lady while escaping!
Lu Shu was gloating over his misfortune. On one hand, he was enjoying the fact that the Puppet Master had encountered such a situation. On the other hand, the secret practitioner was definitely done for. Could you seduce the Puppet Master just like that? She was an expert at the top of the food chain in the realm of cultivation!
But why did Cloud Yi hold back from killing him? Based on her personality, she should have killed him immediately. Rebels had their own awareness. Protecting the world seemed to be against their values. The Puppet Masters should kill.
Then… Cloud Yi suddenly turned and gave Lu Shu a strange smile. The smile was so radiant that it almost blinded Lu Shu…
Then… the moment the secret practitioner’s hand touched Cloud Yi, she stood up and ran to Lu Shu. She gripped Lu Shu’s hand tightly and said in a pitiful tone, “Save me!”
Lu Shu was dumbfounded.
Sister, are you serious? You can just kill him and finish this! Why do you have to involve me in this?
Lu Shu was like a normal observer watching a fight. He even had food in his hands. But a group of people suddenly turned and shouted, “Get him!”
What did this have to do with him?!
The secret practitioners laughed coldly and walked towards Lu Shu. When Lu Shu saw this, he wanted to say, “None of my business!” But Cloud Yi softly whispered, “How did you recognize me? You know what to do, right?”
Lu Shu turned and said to the secret practitioners with a sense of justice, “Don’t even think of touching her.”
When Lu Shu said this, he did not realize that Cloud Yi was suddenly dumbfounded. She remembered that a very long time ago, when she was still young, a tall and sturdy figure had also said the same thing. She would then follow that person to countless expeditions and kill countless people, until that person died.
Cloud Yi had never thought that person, she treated as a father would appear. She also did not expect to hear the same words after so long. This was like a cycle. Perhaps this was fate.
When Lu Shu finished speaking, he realized that Cloud Yi was leaning her entire body on him, as if she were greedily taking in his smell. She was evidently a powerful Puppet Master, but she was now like a cat leaning against him.
Lu Shu was numb. Sister, don’t do that. I’m panicking now…
He was flustered. Who knows what the Puppet Master was up to?
The secret practitioners looked at Lu Shu. They had noticed Lu Shu’s power and knew that he was very strong. But if they backed down now, how would they be able to face the rest of the secret practitioners? They would no longer be scared of them.
Suddenly, Lu Shu saw another person appear behind the secret practitioners. The red sword slashed the secret practitioner standing in front. Lu Shu recognized this young man. He was the blood devil the Puppet Master had encountered in the Koh Chang Island remains!.
