Chapter 938: Nine hundred thirty-six, Fate
“It’s already Chen Ti,” said Lin Wu. He now truly admired Lu Hanmo. Despite only having Golden Immortal cultivation, his strength was not the least bit inferior. Not only was he extrely familiar with the forest, but he was also proficient in formations.
He originally thought he would need to protect Lu Hanmo, but to his surprise, there were tis when he actually had to rely on Lu Hanmo for help. At least he himself had no knowledge of formations.
Moreover, Lu Hanmo’s cultivation was also improving rapidly. In just a short ti of one and a half months, he had already reached the Late Stage of the Golden Immortal. This kind of cultivation speed, he really saw it for the first ti. If he could persuade Lu Hanmo to join the Sky Water Sect, Lu Hanmo’s future achievents would definitely be much higher. Perhaps the Sky Water Sect could reach new heights with a disciple like Lu Hanmo.
Lu Hanmo stood up, patted the dust off his body, and took out a communication talisman to contact Luo Shu, but there was no response from the other side.
After waiting for a long ti, Lu Hanmo gave up helplessly.
Thinking it over, he tried to contact Xiao Yao again. When Shushu entered the Blood Sea Domain Ruins, she had told him that she would et up with Xiao Yao.
But after a long wait, the result was the sa, Xiao Yao was also unreachable. Perhaps where Shushu and the others currently were, they couldn’t receive any signals.
After trying to contact Luo Shu one more ti, Lu Hanmo finally gave up and put away the communication talisman.
“Let’s hurry on our way,” Lu Hanmo said as he waved his hand to dismantle the formation and spoke to Lin Wu. He wished he could grow wings at this mont and fly to Shushu’s side.
“Okay!” Lin Wu nodded.
The two of them continued to move deeper into the forest. The closer they got to the deeper parts, the higher the level of the Immortal Spirit Beasts beca, which also ant greater danger.
The trees in the forest were tall, and the branches and leaves were lush. Because the sunlight was blocked by the dense foliage, it couldn’t penetrate into the forest, and everywhere there was the sll of damp, musty air.
The sound of stepping on dry branches and leaves went “crunch, crunch!” which was especially clear in the quiet forest.
A rustling noise approached, and Lu Hanmo and Lin Wu imdiately beca alert.
Lu Hanmo pulled out a silver long halberd, which Luo Shu had selected for him from the resources brought by the Dragon Clan. Originally, he used a long sword, but after trying the long halberd, he felt it suited him better and that the sa moves executed with the long halberd had greater power.
Lin Wu also quickly brought out his Immortal Artifact, which was an oil lamp with a simple design that exuded a deathly aura.
With a loud roar, a Level Five Wind-Controlling Wolf pounced out of the woods like lightning, aiming for Lu Hanmo and Lin Wu.
Luo Shu got off the plane and drove to Cloud City. The Token of the Divine Doctor Family she had, she had coincidentally seen in an antique market in Cloud City.
After purchasing it, she had always tossed it into her space and later forgot about it. Only after she beca another Luo Shu did she give the Token to Hanmo. In her past life, she only knew of her Second Granduncle; as for the reasons why he was detained, she was not very clear.
After more than twenty years of changes, Cloud City had undergone earth-shattering transformations.
Skyscrapers stood tall, the streets were bustling with traffic, and supermarkets, restaurants, and hotels were packed closely together, filled with the hustle and bustle of modern prosperity.
After leaving the city, the car followed the spacious road, arriving at the place that used to be Luo Family Village.
Luo Family Village now was completely different from before; the old and shabby mud courtyards had turned into new small buildings.
The concrete road stretched right into the center of the village.
Luo Shu parked the car, pushed the door open, and approached Luo Jianmin’s house, lightly knocking on the door, “Is anyone there?” She preferred to inquire about the other Luo Shu from Luo Jianmin’s family rather than from Luo Jiansen’s family.
“Who’s there?” An elderly voice ca from inside the house.
Then, the courtyard door was opened by soone – a bent-over old woman, roughly seventy or eighty years old, walked out from inside.
The old woman was surprised to see Luo Shu standing outside, “Young lady, who are you looking for?” It couldn’t be another salesperson, could it? Lately, there had been door-to-door salespeople every day, making her thoroughly annoyed.
“Auntie, I want to ask about soone.” Luo Shu spoke. The person who opened the door was He Yujuan, the Big aunt of her other body.
“Who are you looking for?” He Yujuan, realizing that Luo Shu was not there to sell anything, relaxed.
“Luo Shu,” Luo Shu said. Without her inhabiting Luo Shu’s body, she guessed that Luo Shu’s fate would not be a good one. But after all, it was her other body, and she still wanted to know her current situation.
“You know Luo Shu?” He Yujuan looked at Luo Shu with so surprise. That poor child, who had never even been to the nearby town, how could soone know her? And to be such a young and beautiful young woman.
“My mother knew her. When my mother was young, she ca here to gather herbs on the mountain, and she t Luo Shu there,” Luo Shu fabricated a story.
“Luo Shu is no longer with us. After she married that fool from the Wang Family, she was tornted every day, eventually becoming insane herself, and accidentally fell into the river, dying young.” As she thought of Luo Shu, He Yujuan couldn’t help but wipe her eyes.
“Thank you, Auntie!” Luo Shu sighed inwardly, thanked He Yujuan, and then left. She had guessed that her other body must have had a hard life, but she hadn’t expected it to be even harder than what she had imagined.
Getting back in the car, Luo Shu drove towards the outskirts of the village.
From afar, she saw a middle-aged man with a limp in one leg, hobbling along the road with the help of a crutch.
Luo Shu sighed softly and slowly drove past the middle-aged man. Luo Zheng, who was supposed to be only in his forties, already looked as old as soone in his fifties or sixties, and even had a la leg. She wondered what had happened.
“Hey la duck, going to the market to buy vegetables?” A middle-aged woman greeted Luo Zheng.
“Yes, the price of vegetables is getting higher and higher; it’s really becoming unaffordable. Look at this, the greens are two yuan per half a kilo,” Luo Zheng complained, shaking the vegetables he was holding, his face full of reluctance.
“If your dad hadn’t listened to your stepmother back then, your leg wouldn’t have broken. You were so good at studying back then, and your foolish dad, just to break your will to study, actually went and broke your leg. Once there’s a stepmother, there’s a stepfather. Sigh!” The middle-aged woman looked at Luo Zheng’s broken leg with a face full of pity.
“It’s all in the past; I’m going ho to cook,” Luo Zheng said gloomily, limping ho with his crutch. The three siblings, which one of them had a good fate? His eldest sister died young, his Second Sister was sold to a butcher and suffered tornt every day. One day, the butcher got drunk and in his rage, beat Second Sister to death. Even though the butcher was sentenced to death, what of it? It couldn’t bring back Second Sister’s life.
