Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Lu Shu cleared his thoughts based on the clues he had obtained.
23 years ago, the Imperial Dragon Soldiers had stirred up problems in a revolt. Lu Shu had never heard about this before and Zhang Weiyu did not bring it up. However, since Lu Shu asked about it, Yi Qian was willing to talk about it.
According to Yi Qian, a Puppet Master named Arcane was planning to kill someone around the old King of G.o.ds. Eventually, his foundation was broken by the old King of G.o.ds and he was dismissed.
Yi Qian did not know about the details. That was because Zhang Weiyu and Arcane had only brought the people whom they trusted the most and left those whose loyalty they were unsure of behind.
It was rumored that the ma.s.sacre was extremely large-scale. However, it still failed eventually.
After that, the old King of G.o.ds started to live in seclusion as though he had turned into another person. However, the people under his rule did not know what exactly happened.
Five years later, or 18 years ago, the old King of G.o.ds died and the Puppet Masters went to Earth to wait for the return of the King.
At this moment, a new King entered the palace of the King of G.o.ds. Some of the Imperial Dragon Soldiers were dismissed and some mysteriously died. Liu Yizhao was one of the minorities who got released and Yi Qian was smart enough to escape earlier in order to remain hidden.
After that, Yi Qian looked for Liu Yizhao to ask him why did everyone get killed except for Liu Yizhao.
However, Liu Yizhao said that he could not reveal anything about himself but he definitely did not betray anyone.
Yi Qian immediately noticed a problem. People were a.s.sa.s.sinating the Imperial Dragon Soldiers in the Luniverse. Yi Qian had always thought that it was done by the new King in the palace of the King of G.o.ds. After Li Liang’s comments, he recalled that after the issue was suppressed, n.o.body appeared in the palace of the King of G.o.ds again. Orders were occasionally made to let one realize the presence of the palace of the King of G.o.ds.
The life of a pract.i.tioner was very long. A Rank One pract.i.tioner could live up to 1000 years. A person of the Master Realm could live way more than 1000 years.
Therefore, the concept of time seemed to be blurred in everyone’s minds. 18 years was like a blink of an eye. Wen Zaifou’s imprisonment was five years long!
However, things would eventually get exposed. Therefore, Duanmu Huangqi and the people who supported him started to take action?
If there were no longer any kings in the palace of the King of G.o.ds, then there ought to be a new King in the Luniverse!
One could rule over the entire world as a King. Who would not want that kind of power?
However, unfortunately, be it the old King of G.o.ds of the new King of G.o.ds, including the owner of the Sword Hut, all of them were able to stay in power in the Luniverse as they had surpa.s.sed the Master Realm and reached a higher level in life!
However, as long as there was one of the three left in the Luniverse, Duanmu Huangqi would not dare to be so arrogant in the palace.
However… All three of them were no longer around! The old King of G.o.ds died, but where did the new King of G.o.ds and the owner of the Sword Hut go?
Something was wrong!
Many people seemed to have noticed that something was wrong. However, very few people dared to ask for evidence. After all, if they got it wrong, they would die!
A Master could control the life of a Rank One expert. What about those above the Master Realm? n.o.body had given a name to this realm and apart from the three aforementioned people, n.o.body knew how to advance to that realm!
Lu Shu knew that Duanmu Huangqi was daring to be so arrogant because he was holding onto some information. However, what information was that?
“If this is the case, we have to be careful.” Lu Shu frowned. “I think something bad is going to happen to the palace!”
Li Liang smiled in a pathetic manner. “If what we are speculating really happens, the Sword Hut will be a huge obstacle that is blocking Duanmu Huangqi. Both parties will definitely end up in a conflict. Be it becoming the fourth Master of the West Region or having the support of other Lords of Heaven, Duanmu Huangqi came prepared. However, I am no longer concerned with this person.”
“Cough cough.” Lu Shu felt that Li Liang was acting too pitiful. He had to include some drama into his sentence.
Actually, Lu Shu knew that Li Liang’s a.n.a.lysis was a means to prove to Lu Shu that he was capable!
Li Liang had guessed what was Lu Shu’s trump card and how Lu Shu could help him. Therefore, he was trying so hard. He had already targeted the root cause of the problem, Lu Shu needed information.
Lu Shu felt that there must be a certain connection between the Luniverse and Earth. Or else, how was the old King of G.o.ds able to head to the Luniverse and how was he able to return so often and copy poems blatantly.
Lu Shu did not mind him copying poems. In fact, eight out of ten people who transmigrated did that. However, Lu Shu was unhappy with how the old King of G.o.ds stopped him from progressing completely, there was no harm for him to make fewer copies!
He thought about it and said to Li Liang in a serious tone, “After I help you, you have to sign the Treaty of Alliance with me. Yi Qian, introduce the Treaty of Alliance to him.”
After Yi Qian’s introduction, Li Liang was completely astonished. He did not hear about the Treaty of Alliance before this. In fact, n.o.body in the Luniverse had, or Yi Qian would not have mistaken Lu Shu as the King of G.o.ds earlier on.
Li Liang was confused. “Can’t you just get the slaves directly, who was bored enough to create something like this?”
Yi Qian’s face turned bad immediately. “Watch your words. This is for… Wait a minute and let me gather my thoughts. Oh right, it is for everyone to have their freedom, their independence and…”
Yi Qian forgot his line again.
Li Liang kept silent. The rule of the Luniverse was such that the winner had it all. The battle between the aristocrats and how captives became slaves were common events. n.o.body felt that it was inappropriate.
That was right, he could just keep them as slaves, why take the extra step? Although the Treaty of Alliance put many restrictions on the person who signed it, he could not reveal the secrets regarding the host to others nor betray him, it was not as heavy a restriction as the seal of a slave.
However, after listening to the Treaty of Alliance, Li Liang suddenly realized that the person who created the Treaty of Alliance was merciful.
Li Liang kept silent for a long while and suddenly said firmly, “I am willing.”
Lu Xiaoyu who had never been paying attention suddenly shot Li Liang a look when she heard the three words. Why did it sound so weird for a guy to say that to Lu Shu…
At this moment, after Lu Shu recited the Treaty of Alliance and signed it with Li Liang, he took out a red fruit and pa.s.sed it to Li Liang. “Eat it.”
Li Liang swallowed it without hesitation. Lu Shu observed Yi Qian’s expression quietly and heaved a sigh of relief when he saw Yi Qian’s confused expression. Yi Qian had never seen the refresher fruit before.
Suddenly, Li Liang gave an astonished look. He felt that his foundations were recovering and he grew more powerful!
What on earth was that, it managed to make such a miraculous transformation?
