Chapter 802: Walnut Tree

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Before Lu Shu?s portrait had been hung along the corridor, many people had guessed who the black silhouette was. The issue of the Ninth Heavenly King was always brought up, as he had killed a fake Class A, Takashima Tairatsu.

The appearance of the Ninth Heavenly King had caused the Collection of Gods to fall from a top-rate organization into a state of disarray.

It was not easy to cause a large organization to collapse. First, their leader, who had the strongest combat power in the organization, had to be killed. Thereafter, their foundation had to be destroyed. Lu Shu had done all of these things. The strength of the Collection of Gods had fallen significantly. They would need to spend a few years recovering before they could return to the world stage.

Most importantly, for some reason, although the Collection of Gods had been destroyed by the Ninth Heavenly King, a very big reason for their collapse was because of the Collection of Gods itself. For example, Takashima Tairatsu had killed more people than Lu Shu.

Even then, they were enemies.

After the Collection of Gods had been rebuilt by a girl called Sakurai Yaeko, people were surprised that she had obtained the support of the Collection of Gods, but the Ninth Heavenly King did not seem to hate her.

The Collection of Gods had wanted to send an arrest warrant for the Ninth Heavenly King to the Darkness Kingdom, but this had been rejected by Sakurai Yaeko. The Conservatives had questioned Sakurai about who the Ninth Heavenly King was.

Sakurai knew what had happened. She had a short interaction with the Deities at the base. Thus, everyone felt that it was likely that Sakurai knew who the Ninth Heavenly King was.

But Sakurai kept it a secret. She did not answer anything regarding the Ninth Heavenly King.

But after that battle, some of Sakurai?s trusted subordinates knew that Sakurai always had several thousand yen in her wallet. But she had never spent the money.

Sakurai no longer needed to pay for anything wherever she went. A wallet was an insignificant existence to her. Later on, Sakurai stopped carrying credit cards around. But she still had money in her wallet.

No one knew that the money was the salary that Sakurai had received from Lu Shu. She felt that the several thousand yen was the cleanest money she had earned in her lifetime.

There were times when Sakurai felt that it would be more appropriate for her to be an assassin, instead of the leader of an organization. Perhaps this was not a life that she wanted. Thus, if she had to leave the Collection of Gods one day, she would not take everything away. She would only take her small ?salary?.

It was special to her.

Everyone could understand why the Collection of Gods ceased all their activities. After all, they had lost their strongest expert. It would not be wise for them to challenge the Heavenly Network… but since when was the Collection of Gods this wise?

No matter what, the Ninth Heavenly King of the Heavenly Network was a mystery in the realm of cultivation. It was as if the Ninth Heavenly King had disappeared after what had happened at the Collection of Gods. Even the members of the Heavenly Network did not know who the Ninth Heavenly King was.

But today, this mystery had been solved.

Everyone already knew that Lord Lu was amazing. After all, Lord Lu often annoyed people. If he was not amazing, he would have been killed a long time ago…

With his impressive military achievements, it was impossible to not give in to him. The teams from the other Cultivation Colleges all prayed that they did not have to face the Luo Shen Cultivation College.

Lu Shu had quietly left the Luo Shen Cultivation College. But the discussions about him did not cease.

He had calmly came to class. He did not directly reveal that he was the Ninth Heavenly King. But the story he had calmly told had proven everything.

Chen Zuan, Cheng Qiuqiao and the rest also did not know that Lu Shu had gone to the Collection of Gods. But everyone who was familiar with Lu Shu had guessed so, especially Liu Li.

Back then, many people had sent flowers to Lu Shu?s door and lit candles. It was worth pondering about what Lu Shu had done when he faked his death.

But back then, no one believed that Lu Shu was the Ninth Heavenly King. After all, Lu Shu had killed a fake Class A at the Collection of Gods!

This time, Lu Shu did not bring Chen Zuan and Cheng Qiuqiao with him. Because… it was far too dangerous.

The controller glared menacingly at their keyboard, as if they had already calculated this. Lu Shu had brought them to the Kunlun Mountains because they could handle the level of danger there. They could just run away. But this time, he could not run away. If he ran away, what would happen to the rest of the members of the Heavenly Network?

Lu Shu was not talented when it came to commanding others. He was not a genius in military affairs. He had not received any training either. The only time he had led a group was the Flood of Bronze. Thus, Lu Shu felt that in order for him to inflict the most damage on the secret practitioners, the large organizations, and the controller was not to fight like a soldier. It was to hunt them down.

He could not expose his whereabouts. If his whereabouts were exposed, the people around him might be in trouble.

Thus, Lu Shu had to hide.

Lu Shu disappeared. No one knew where he had gone.

It was as if Lu Shu knew from the very beginning that if he did not want the controller to control his movements, the first thing he had to do was to disappear.

He was exposed, while the controller was in the dark. Now, everyone would walk into the dark together. We will see who will be killed!

The courtyard at Luihai Lane in the Capital had been rebuilt. The courtyard, which had once displayed the vicissitudes of life, suddenly took on a completely new look. Shi Xuejin looked melancholic as he stood in the courtyard. ?My father left behind a lot of things, but the only thing left now is that walnut tree.?

Shi Xuejin was not used to it. Although the facilities in the courtyard had been upgraded, but there was no place like his old home.

The entire courtyard had been renewed. For some reason, it felt as if something was missing.

Shi Xuejin patted the stem of the walnut tree. ?Walnut tree, walnut tree. There?s only you to accompany me. You can?t be like the others who have no conscience. If they say that they want to destroy old things, they will… do you think I?m right, walnut tree??

Nie Ting was beside him. His expression darkened. ?Give way.?

Shi Xuejin, who had seemed like a scholar, suddenly shouted, ?Nie Ting, if you cut down this walnut tree today, I will not cook for you, for an entire year!?

Hao Zhichao and the rest, who were standing around, felt very awkward. Shi Xuejin was not usually like this. He was always kind and gentle, like a scholar.

To be honest, they were also very curious. Why did Nie Ting want to cut down this walnut tree? It was better to let it grow, right? Last year, Heavenly King Luo even treated everyone to walnuts.

Freshly picked walnuts had a green skin around them. One needed to cut off the skin and air-dry the walnut before it could be eaten.

Shi Xuejin was the busiest when the walnut tree bore fruit. He did not even read his books. He would be busy cutting off the skin…

When Hao Zhichao saw how saw Shi Xuejin was, he could not bear it anymore. ?Then let?s not cut down the tree…?

Nie Ting coldly said, ?Pull him away! Cut down the tree!?

Shi Xuejin let out a terrible shriek as he was being pulled away. ?Nie Ting, we are still not done!?
