Chapter 1074: We Cannot Leave Behind Anyone We Are Supposed to Kill in This Lifetime
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
When Lu Shu and the rest had joined the battle, Duanmu Huangqi had given up on killing Nie Ting and s.h.i.+ Xuejin. This was enough to see their fear.
At times like this, no matter whether it was the armor that shakes mountains, or the armor that transcends hills, he would kill Duanmu Huangqi before anything!
Lu Shu made his move. The Imperial Dragon Soldiers moved out as well. The Imperial Dragon Soldiers maintained a tight formation around Lu Shu. They were like a chess board that was about to suppress Duanmu Huangqi.
Nie Ting and s.h.i.+ Xuejin had just seen Lu Shu, who had returned. There was excitement and surprise in Nie Ting’s eyes. He had just told s.h.i.+ Xuejin that Lu Shu would definitely return if he had heard that the Earth was in trouble. As expected, he had returned.
Earlier, he was worried that even if he and s.h.i.+ Xuejin were able to fend off these three masters, it would be difficult for the Flood of Bronze to deal with the Black Feather Army.
It was a very difficult situation, as the overall strength of the Earth was no match for that of the Luniverse.
But now, when they saw Lu Shu approaching from the Longmen fortress, they subconsciously heaved a sigh of relief. The situation here was settled!
This trust was built over a very long period of time. It was unconditional.
When s.h.i.+ Xuejin saw the Imperial Dragon Soldiers protecting Lu Shu, he suddenly felt that Nie Ting had been constantly angry at Lu Shu in order to make him a Heavenly King. They had fought for almost a year, but this was Nie Ting’s wisest decision in protecting the Heavenly Network.
In conclusion, his anger had not been for nothing…
It was as if Duanmu Huangqi did not expect Lu Shu to be so resolute and charge directly towards him. Lu Shu also did not expect Duanmu Huangqi to lead the other two masters to retreat.
A grand Lord of Heaven had retreated while facing a Rank One expert!
With victory in hand, Lu Shu suddenly felt uncomfortable. It was as if a power-packed punch had hit the air!
“Stay there! Don’t run away!” Lu Shu roared angrily!
“From Duanmu Huangqi’s distress, +999!”
Duanmu Huangqi grew pale. He felt humiliation that he had never felt before. It had been a long time since he had been chased by a Rank One!
But this time, it was different. Just as Lu Shu had guessed, the armor that shook mountains was important. He had to figure out what was happening.
There was something strange about the land of forefathers!
The next moment, Duanmu Huangqi took out a purple pearl and crushed it. When Lu Shu saw the purple pearl, he felt that things were not going well. He had seen this pearl before, when he had committed a ma.s.sacre on the limestone road!
Back then, he had killed 12 patrons. Suddenly, 21 tattooed patrons appeared and tried to kill Lu Shu, but were dispersed by the Wei Wu Army. In the end, they had taken out a purple pearl and disappeared into a void!
Back then, Lu Shu felt that this purple pearl was very mysterious. It could open up a s.p.a.ce pathway. Back then, he thought that this was a method that masters could use. After all, masters could break s.p.a.ce.
But now, it looked as if this method was beyond the masters. If Duanmu Huangqi was able to create a portal and leave the Earth, he did not have to rely on external help.
The purple pearl was probably very precious. If not, Duanmu Huangqi would not have taken out the pearl in times of danger.
Suddenly, after the purple pearl shattered, it created a s.p.a.ce pathway like the one before. Duanmu Huangqi led the two masters and walked into the pathway.
Lu Shu tried to chase them, but the s.p.a.ce pathway had closed!
A Lord of Heaven had led a mission, but his army had suffered heavy losses. In the end, they had no choice but to escape.
Lu Shu, Nie Ting, and s.h.i.+ Xuejin flew back to the Longmen fortress. This time, the Earth had won. They did not have to rely on any cheap tricks.
But Lu Shu could not be happy. Lu Shu thought that they had come at an appropriate time. They had only taken 30 minutes to kill their way to the s.p.a.ce pathway after it had opened. He had even used all of his invisible aurablades and used Johnson’s materialization ability to open up the path.
When they reached the s.p.a.ce pathway, Lu Shu ordered the Wei Wu Army to enter the s.p.a.ce pathway and provide support. He and Lu Xiaoyu would stop the remaining 500 thousand Black Feather Army soldiers. This was a very courageous move!
The two of them only walked into the s.p.a.ce pathway after he had used Sparrow Shade to kill the entire Black Feather Army.
But even if their arrival had been timely, some comrades in the Flood of Bronze had died. However, they had suffered few loses overall. After all, there would definitely be fatalities in war. Only strange armies like the Wei Wu Army would be able to completely dominate the battle.
Lu Shu, who had been happy earlier, suddenly felt sad over the deaths of his comrades. Once he was used to leading the Wei Wu Army, he had thought that he could control the Flood of Bronze as well. The battles he had experienced could not be cla.s.sified as cruel. It was not that their enemies were weak. It was just that the Wei Wu Army was too strong!
It was said that only men who went through wars would truly mature. Experiencing war meant experiencing life and death of themselves, their loved ones, and their friends.
But Lu Shu’s mind was filled with the thought that the chief offender, Duanmu Huangqi had not died!
The Black Feather Army outside the s.p.a.ce pathway had been killed. Those who had been defeated retreated into Longmen Mountain. The Flood of Bronze no longer had to do anything. The Wei Wu Army took over them. Wei Wu Army could not be more familiar with dealing with the Black Feather Army.
Lu Shu had understood that Duanmu Huangqi was just a performer. No matter whether it was the 21 tattooed patrons, or someone behind Duanmu Huangqi, there was definitely someone else involved. The purple pearl was not from Duanmu Huangqi. He did not yet have this ability!
The fog surrounding the world seemed to have dispersed, but water condensed once again. Now, fog surrounded the world again.
But Lu Shu did not think too far for now. He looked at the corpses from the Flood of Bronze at the entrance of the fortress. Their durable bronze armor was broken.
When Lu Shu saw this, he could not maintain his emotions. Something ruthless was beating in his chest. It was hard to control.
It was as if there was a beast in his heart. It had been sleeping for a long time, but was about to awaken.
Lu Shu looked at Zhang Weiyu. “Tell the Wei Wu Army to gather. I will wait for you at the s.p.a.ce pathway.”
Zhang Weiyu immediately knew what Lu Shu wanted to do, but the calm Zhang Weiyu did not stop Lu Shu. He had no feelings towards the Flood of Bronze. The Flood of Bronze was not an army that he had trained. But he had stopped doubting Lu Shu’s decisions since a long time ago.
At that moment, there were waves of energy from the s.p.a.ce pathway. The s.p.a.ce pathway had closed. Lu Shu was dumbfounded.
Suddenly, Lu Shu turned and said to Network, “Don’t worry. I will not leave behind anyone I am supposed to kill in this lifetime. After I am done with my affairs in the Heavenly Network, Heavenly King s.h.i.+ and I will follow you to that world. After all… I have to take revenge for them as well.”
Lu Shu calmly turned and looked at Nie Ting. “That’s settled then.”
