Spare Me, Great Lord! Chapter 774 - Was It Exciting?

The question over whether Lural was Coral or not had become the biggest mystery in the Luo Shen Cultivation College. They would not gain much by solving this mystery. Rather, many people were looking forward to hearing the truth behind this piece of gossip.

Everyone was already interested in what had happened to Coral and Lu Shu back in Sardinia. An intense love, and a deadly wedding. This was like the plot of an intense love story.

In the past, everyone watched Romeo and Juliet, or Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai, but these stories were too far-fetched for most people. Where was the satisfaction that they derived from observing a relations.h.i.+p such as Lu Shu and Coral’s?

But there was a lot of missing information. All of them were students with no resources. They did not even know what Coral looked like. Thus, they could only leave this question open.

At that moment, an old man with white hair walked out of Lu Shu’s house. He did not seem to be carrying anything and walked out. Cheng Qiuqiao and Chen Zuan had just returned to find Lu Shu.

When they saw the old man, they were dumbfounded. “Who are you?”

But when the old man brushed past them, he fell to the ground.

Chen Zuan and Cheng Qiuqiao were dumbfounded. What was happening? Did they run into a scammer? They might lose thousands of dollars!

But before they could understand what was happening, the old man stood up. He smiled and brushed the dust off his clothes. “Children, was that exciting? Life is full of surprises!”

With that, he left.

“From Chen Zuan’s distress, +666!”

“From Cheng Qiuqiao’s distress, +999!”

When Cheng Qiuqiao looked at the old man, he grew pale. “Luckily he was fine..”

“Are you r.e.t.a.r.ded?” Chen Zuan said bitterly, “That was definitely Brother Shu! Who else would be so lowly?!”

“It can’t be.” Cheng Qiuqiao was dumbfounded. “Brother Shu doesn’t look like that.”

“Although I don’t know how he changed his appearance, but I definitely recognize that tab on his finger!” Chen Zuan declared with certainty.

Cheng Qiuqiao had not caught up. “What tab?”

The fact that Lu Shu had a mask was a cla.s.sified secret that they did not know about. Furthermore, the tab had always been on his left hand, but very few people noticed it.

But Chen Zuan was very sharp, thus he noticed it. Ever since the wedding, Lu Shu had always worn the tab on his finger.

Thanks to Cheng Qiuqiao’s reminder, Cheng Qiuqiao finally understood what had happened. “What, so that was actually Brother Shu…”

“He he. Even without the tab, you can tell from his personality. I will definitely recognize him!” Chen Zuan laughed coldly.

“Wait.” Cheng Qiuqiao was dumbfounded. “I think I’ve seen that tab before… that’s right, Lural from the combat specialization!”

Chen Zuan said, “You are smart at times, but can be dumb too, huh? I guess you didn’t take note of Coral’s appearance back then. Even if others can’t guess, we know that she’s Coral. I noticed the tabs on their fingers a long time ago. I don’t know what happened between them. They treat each other like strangers, yet they still wear the tab on their fingers.”

“How did Brother Shu only remove the tab from the can without opening it?” Cheng Qiuqiao asked curiously.

Chen Zuan was dumbfounded. He looked at Cheng Qiuqiao. “Brother, we’ve both gone through nine years of education. Why is your worldview so different from mine?”

Lu Shu headed towards the Lianyungang–Khorgas Expressway in the north. Now, he had taken the appearance of an old man. He could not buy a long-distance ticket if his appearance did not match the one on his ID. Thus, he could only use another method. He would take the bus and pa.s.s by the identification checkpoint. He would then board the train after that.

In reality, many drivers liked to pull in these kinds of pa.s.sengers. When the system was flawed, drivers could often pocket the train fare from their pa.s.sengers.

There were still seats available when Lu Shu boarded the train. He slowly sat in the middle.

Lu Shu had thought about going to the Changbai Mountains for a very long time. If Luo Nan had not suggested that they go to the Kunlun Mountains, he would already be in the Changbai Mountains.

The current Changbai Mountains was not just an area that people could not approach. It had been completely sealed off by the Heavenly Network. According to locals in the area, the creatures in the Changbai Mountains had mutated at a very fast pace. They had become extremely dangerous.

A few days ago. Lu Shu had seen a post on the Golden Foundation. The user said that it had saved a penguin which had been covered in petroleum and was on the verge of death. It had floated to a fis.h.i.+ng village near Rio de Janeiro. The fisherman had spent a week cleaning it before releasing it back into the ocean.

But due to the magically rich era, the penguin became intelligent. It crossed a distance of 8000 kilometers and overcame obstacles like fatigue, disease, natural predators, and so on to return to the village.

There were times when Lu Shu was touched. There were too many instances of cheating around the world. Now, as everyone was protecting themselves from mutated creatures, nature gave humans a surprising gift of warmth.

What exactly was in the Changbai Mountains? What creature had gained Nie Ting’s attention and protection?

Lu Shu had looked through some records regarding the Changbai Mountains. There were two main strange things about the Changbai Mountains. One was the sea monster in the Heavenly Pond. The other was a place called Rice Bowl. According to the information that Nalan Que had a.n.a.lyzed, Nie Ting’s sword formation had nothing to do with the sea monster and the Rice Bowl.

But at that moment, Lu Shu suddenly received a notification. “The secret behind the Ancient Yi Clan is in the Changbai Mountains.”

This was a very strange notification. There was no number attached. Lu Shu did not know who had sent this notification.

Lu Shu had never told any outsiders that he was going to the Changbai Mountains. He felt that this was just a coincidence. If he ended up not going to the Changbai Mountains because of this notification, the sender would be shooting themselves in the foot, right?

He felt that it could not have been Nie Ting. He would never do such a thing, to hide his head but show his tail.

So, what was in the Changbai Mountains?

For some reason, Lu Shu felt some danger. Thus, he did not allow Lu Xiaoyu, Chen Zuan and the rest to follow him.

But after he received this notification, he grew even more uncertain. It was as if an even greater danger was waiting for him. Thus… Lu Shu decided not to go…

Why did the Great Lord go?

To destroy the Heavenly Palace!

What if you can never return?

Then I will not go!
