Chapter 250: The Best Is Yet To Be
Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations
If those who were in the remains all came from wealthy backgrounds, they would all have watches with Geneva seals. Selling one of these watches outside would fetch hundreds of thousands of dollars. Why would he worry about life anymore?!
To these people, was a watch useful in a fight or battle? Everyone wasn’t stupid, and they knew the pros and cons!
Jiang Shuyi was right! The best time for magical development was not here yet!
If there really comes a day when business could be done, a small target could be set before expanding the business to the entire country!
After that, a larger target could be set and the business could be expanded globally!
Lu Shu had already thought of all this. When the time comes, he could have a nickname as well. If he wasn’t called ‘the master’, then he could be called ‘the remains businessman!’ It was apt!
In the future, everyone wouldn’t have to search for the relic in the remains anymore, They would look for him to buy equipment first, hahahaha!
Lu Xiaoyu stared coldly at Lu Shu, who was acting weird and laughing.
Jiang Shuyi was confused, “Lu Shu, what are you thinking about?”
“Keke, nothing much,” Lu Shu wiped off his saliva. The situation now was that the remains were open to his level, such that he could go without the help of Li Yixiao. But he still felt that he should continue working with Li Yixiao.
Although his relations.h.i.+p with the old man Li Xianyi was good, the mainland was the homeground of the heavenly network and he couldn’t always rely on Jiang Shuyi for his problems, could he? If he could maintain his relations with Li Yixiao, many things would be much more convenient in future.
And being a heavenly king, Li Yixiao would definitely always receive information quicker.
Moreover, Lu Shu was actually quite willing to hang out with someone like Li Yixiao. It didn’t matter how reliable he was, Li Yixiao is loyal and upholds justice.
Lu Shu packed his stuff and prepared to journey with Jiang Shuyi with Lu Xiaoyu in hand. At that moment, Huanhu road, which was supposed to be dark, was lit up by the ma.s.sive jam of cars.
At this moment, another person, escorted by two military personnel, walked over towards Chaka salt lake. As he walked past Jiang Shuyi and Lu Shu, he glanced at the two military personnel alongside Jiang Shuyi.
He didn’t acknowledge them, but walked past silently.
Lu Shu was curious, “He must be one of your relatives?”
Unknowingly, ever since the very beginning of training, Lu Shu felt as if he was really different. With the big world unravelling itself in front of him, the famous bloodlines and family clans were no longer so far away.
People would be honoured to be friends with them…
“Lu Shu, why are you staring at others?” Jiang Shuyi noticed that there was something wrong with Lu Shu’s gaze.
“Coughs, it’s nothing,” Lu Shu retracted his gaze… He felt that in these few days, he had to gain more knowledge. He had to track the person’s whereabouts!
Lu Shu got on the bus to pack his stuff. w.a.n.g Shuli noticed him, “Lu Shu, are you leaving? Where do you intend to go so late at night?”
Lu Shu stayed silent. Actually, there was no point in hiding such stuff. Moreover, they harboured good intentions toward Lu Xiaoyu and himself. The chances of them meeting each other again wasn’t large. It wasn’t nice to continue hiding the truth. He spoke, “I’m not leaving. It’s just that I’m entering Chaka salt lake, there’s a remains there that’s about to open.”
Speaking of this, as long as w.a.n.g Shuli wasn’t an idiot, she would roughly understand what’s going on. Also, she already harbored such a guess prior to this given the way Yuan Liangtuo and his friends treated Lu Shu.
The aunties were astonished, and w.a.n.g Shuli and her friends only just realized that Lu Shu was a pract.i.tioner!
w.a.n.g Shuli smiled, “Please prioritize your safety.”
Previously, because of the commotion over the incident at Mt. Beimang, people a.s.sociated remains with danger.
Lu Shu smiled, “See you again soon!”
As he alighted the bus with Lu Xiaoyu, his gaze met Yuan Liangtuo’s. THe other party’s expression was quite confusing, as if he heard Lu Shu’s words just now and he was contemplating going to the remains as well.
Yuan Liangtuo wasn’t considering the question of whether or not he could make it in. In his mind, wherever Lu Shu could go, he could definitely go as well. After all, they were all daoyuan students.
And as for what he was contemplating, he was worried that he might be faced with danger upon entering the remains.
The forum on the Golden Foundation had the number of deaths of students at Mt. Beimang published: 371.
In a time of peace, this wasn’t a small number. To Yuan Liangtuo and his friends, firstly, they were stuck at cla.s.s E and were unable to break through. Secondly, they had other options and not going wouldn’t result in any great harm.
But to speak the truth, it was impossible for them to not have any ambitions. Wasn’t it said that training near the remains was effective?
Lu Shu thought that having left like that, such a point-donating tool like Yuan Liangtuo was gone. He had to look for new targets… But thinking again, the bulk of point contributions came from that Li Dian. As for Yuan Liangtuo… at the most he was half the standard of Liu Li.
Thinking of this, Lu Shu suddenly missed Liu Li…
In such a short amount of time together, they parted ways again. Be it the aunties, Yuan Liangtuo or w.a.n.g Shuli, they were all just pa.s.sing by Lu Shu’s life. There wasn’t grief, nor was there happiness. Just serenity.
After hesitating for a long time, Yuan Liangtuo decided to go as well and he bid farewell to everyone. The bus turned silent. No one expected that there would be 7 people out of the 20-man tour group after less than half the journey…
Tour guide w.a.n.g was also confused. Why were there so many pract.i.tioners in his tour group?
Just when everyone was collecting their thoughts, someone noticed Yuan Liangtuo and his friends coming back embarra.s.sedly…
“Little Yuan, why are you guys back again?” One of the aunties asked out of curiosity.
Yuan Liangtuo’s face turned red, “I wasn’t allowed to enter!”
“Huh? Didn’t Lu Shu go in? Why wouldn’t they let you?” The aunties didn’t understand.
“From Yuan Liangtuo’s distress, +666!”
Yuan Liantuo was demoralized. He left and bid farewell with so much pride and arrogance just moments ago!
He hesitated for a long time before deciding to come clean, “I’m a second lieutenant while he’s a lieutenant…”
“Aren’t you all daoyuan students? Why is there a difference in rank?” The aunties weren’t letting him off. They had to interrogate him today.
“From Yuan Liangtuo’s distress, +666!”
Yuan Liangtuo explained painstakingly, “The students with the best apt.i.tude will attain the rank of lieutenant. But in some cases, those that made great contributions will also be bestowed with the rank of lieutenant. I’m not sure which case he belongs to.”
w.a.n.g Shuli leaned against the window and looked at the beautiful night scenery while humming to a soft and cheerful tune.
