Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Today, Lu Shu did not make any la jokes. He simply prepared to teach. It was as if he felt that this was a very formal occasion. He had to be serious as well.
He had been a teacher for more than a month, but he had never taken his position seriously. When he occasionally joked with the students, he still felt like a student.
Everyday, he played Chinese chess with Chen Zuan and the rest in the laboratory. He still posted unreliable bits of wisdom on his page and earned distress points from his students.
But he did not post anything today. He did not play Chinese chess in the laboratory either. Chen Zuan, Cheng Qiuqiao, and Cao Qingci silently looked at Lu Shu. He was standing by the window of the laboratory and spacing out. It was as if he was thinking about sothing very important.
This was unusual. So unusual that Chen Zuan and the rest started to panic. They were afraid that Lu Shu would suddenly create trouble that would kill them.
Lu Shu did create trouble, but he did not plan to kill people.
Chen Zuan suddenly felt that today’s Lu Shu was very different from the usual Lu Shu...
They also suddenly realized that Lu Shu had always been growing, and had always been changing. No matter whether it was a good change or a bad change, the once selfish young man had now gained an understanding of the world.
Perhaps Lu Shu had never changed. He had never been selfish to the point of immorality. He was not truly cold-blooded either. He just did what he felt was right. This ti, he had decided to accept the warmth of the world, and repay it with warmth.
Two years had passed since the start of the magically rich era. In these two years, Lu Shu had t many people and experienced a life that he had never thought about before in the past. This ti, he wanted to fulfill the promise he had made. He wanted to fight for the Heavenly Network.
At first, the students did not realize the importance of his words. When they heard that Lu Shu wanted to talk about what had happened at the Collection of Gods, their first reaction was, “Hm? Was Lord Lu at the Collection of Gods back then as well? Does Lord Lu know who the Ninth Heavenly King is?”
The portrait of the Ninth Heavenly King and Liu Xiu were beside each other. All the students had realized this. After all, it was the biggest piece of gossip within the Heavenly Network.
The Heavenly Kings were top combat powers in the Heavenly Network. Everyone knew that there was the Ninth Heavenly King, but they did not know who the Heavenly King was. This piqued their curiosity.
This was like so advertisents in the past that deliberately censored its content. A cloth then covered the countdown tir. Everyone had to wait for nine days before the advertisent underneath was revealed.
Eventually, the entire city started to talk about the advertisent. Everyone’s curiosity had been piqued.
The Ninth Heavenly King. The most mysterious Heavenly King. The answer was about to be revealed. Would Lord Lu tell them the truth?
Lu Shu scanned the audience and calmly said, “Back then, the Collection of Gods issued an arrest warrant for . They wanted to use the Deep Sea White Sand to trade for my life. Zhong Yutang found imdiately. I worked together with You Mingyu to pretend that I was dead. During that period, I could not appear in public, Furthermore, I am soone who will take revenge. If you have a warrant against , I will kill you. Thus, I went to the Collection of Gods and started a new life with a new identity.”
“That was my first ti being a spy. But it couldn’t be considered a success... my cover was always mysteriously blown...” Lu Shu helplessly laughed. Zhong Yutang, who had just arrived, beca unhappy when he heard this. Were you not ashad of your identity being exposed?
But Zhong Yutang did not say anything. He silently looked at the young man on the stage. He seed more composed, as if he was prepared to accept the various dazzling glories.
Lu Shu continued. “Back then, I t a female colleague who was responsible for helping . Of course, I can’t reveal her na. She was an ordinary person, but her words touched . She said that there were so things that people just had to do.”
“Later on, I found out that Takashima Tairatsu was planning to sacrifice the mbers of the Collection of Gods so that he could advance. Thus, I infiltrated the base that he had built and tried to sabotage his plans.” Lu Shu romanticized the situation. After all, he could reveal that he had wanted to steal magical stones...
“Back then, I was alone with no support. It was difficult to sabotage Takashima’s plan alone. After all, he was almost a Class A. Back then, a Class C expert tried to attack , but I did not notice. That was when Liu Xiu protected .”
Lu Shu looked as if he was reminiscing the past. “To be honest, I still don’t understand. If he continued to hide, he had a very high chance of survival. But he choose to protect . He used his blood and his swords to buy ti. After that, I could not understand why he had done that for a very long ti. Was there anything in this world that was more important than one’s own life? Maybe I was too selfish, thus I could not co up with an answer. Till now, I still feel that one’s own life is the most important. But I also understand that there are so things that people just have to do.”
The students suddenly realized that they had been thinking of the wrong thing. While the Ninth Heavenly King and Liu Xiu killed Takashima Tairatsu, Lord Lu was not an observer. He had taken part in it!
They had wanted to ask Lu Shu who the Ninth Heavenly King was. Now, Lu Shu had revealed the answer.
Lu Shu felt as if he had been relieved of a heavy load. He had finally talked about this buried past. He had provided the best remarks for Liu Xiu as a participant of the incident.
Zhong Yutang silently looked at Lu Shu. He was very clear that the battle had been classified because Lu Shu did not want to accept the position of Heavenly King. Lu Shu knew this as well.
Thus, when Lu Shu talked about this himself, this ant that Lu Shu had already made his preparations.
Lu Shu smiled. “This is my last lesson. I hope that all of you have gained sothing from my lessons.”
A student suddenly asked, “Heavenly King Lu, where are you going? Are you going to stop teaching?”
When Lu Shu heard the title of Heavenly King Lu, he was dumbfounded. This was his first ti hearing this na. He was not used to it. He thought about the danger that waited for him at the Changbai Mountains. Suddenly, he started to talk to himself. “I feel that you will have a mont in your life when you tell yourself, this is , and this is my decision.”
This was what Lu Shu had learned after his conversation with Lu Xiaoyu yesterday. The solution to problems in life was not to run away. It was to make the problem disappear, or... kill the person who created the problem.
That day, the portrait of the Ninth Heavenly King beside Liu Xiu that had been a black silhouette was finally replaced with Lu Shu’s portrait.
Lu Shu was smiling in the picture. His smile was as bright as the sun.
