Chapter 418: Fists Are The Truth
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Crossing his knees on a giant rock, Lu Shu fed the newly excavated magical weapons to his divine water as he calculated his gains in the fight earlier. Indeed, the water proved to be considerably useful. In the defense against elemental attacks, most people would rely on their own armor. Thus, with the divine water as his s.h.i.+eld, elemental attacks of Cla.s.s C or below could exert negligible harm on himself.
Besides, from the angle of physical attacks with magical weapons, the double-layer protection of divine water and celestial cloak could undoubtedly keep him safe. Besides, its destructiveness could probably deter his opponents from further attempts…
Yet, more importantly, the greatest reward was, in addition to the countless broken weapons, the group of individual Pract.i.tioners in front of him…
None of them dared to risk his life in an attempt to escape having witnessed Lu Shu’s power. Even one of the Cla.s.s C’s were punched to death underground!
Numerous lines of distress points were registered as they continued with their scavenger job. Yes, an entire screen of distress points!
Sadly, though, Lu Shu had missed the peak of their distress points. He would have made an incredibly fruitful harvest had he captured them one by one. Now that their senses were numb, their contribution of distress points was also as low as ten plus.
Even so, the generation of entries was frequent and continuous. Lu Shu could see that the fourth star was already within his reach!
A person stood up. “It’s been a long while since the last time we found a broken weapon. Thus, I think we have finished our work… Can we leave now?”
It was already daybreak, and the hole was over twenty meters in depth. Honestly, Lu Shu was impressed with their high productivity…
Lu Shu smacked his lips. “Go deeper. I have a feeling that there are more down there.”
“From Trinidad Andrew’s distress, +199!”
“No more! Really!” the man shouted at the top of his lungs from the bottom of the pit.
Lu Shu raised his brows threateningly. “Are you questioning my instincts?”
“From Trinidad Andrew’s distress, +299!”
The individual Pract.i.tioners suddenly realized that this fellow was far harder to deal with than those guys from the Pledge!
At the very least, they had the intention to let them leave. But the new man seemed to be taking pleasure from their misery! What the heck!
Nothing had been found since as early as half an hour earlier, but that fellow insisted that they continue. Thus, they had no other way but to dig another five meters!
When could they finally reach the end?!
A group of devils were gone and here came the devil incarnate. Could you believe it?
Lu Shu almost jumped in joy at the large influx of distress points. Yes! The fourth star was about to be lit!
Lu Shu lectured them in all sincerity, “In order to excel in cultivation, you have to be patient and composed. Withstand the loneliness and do not fret…”
“From Trinidad Andrew’s distress, +299!”
“From…”
The individual Pract.i.tioners hesitated before they protested. “But there really is nothing more!”
They were on the brink of frustration. Why couldn’t you just let us go!
Displeased, Lu Shu sighed. “Now, I am sitting here while you have to dig dirt down there. Do you know why?”
No one answered. Right, why?
“Because you can’t defeat me.”
“From Trinidad Andrew’s distress, +666!”
“From…”
Can’t you just say you will beat us up if we don’t do work? Save the words, please! We will do as told, deal?!
Freak!
Lu Shu’s eyes brightened at the s.h.i.+ning fourth star!
Now, not only had his divine water gained significant power, even the fourth star in his third nebula had been lit. If he continued staying here with this bunch, it would be worth it to forgo the relic!
Besides, he might run into dangers if he went after the relic now. But it was totally safe here. He must up his game so as to secure more relics in the future!
In his eyes, those individual Pract.i.tioners were like his bright future…
Suddenly, he felt a gust of energy waves from the distant sky. There was someone flying in the air!
Besides Li Xianyi, who else could fly in the remains? Meanwhile, Li Xianyi had spotted Lu Shu too. Then, he suddenly swerved back in Lu Shu’s direction.
The individual Pract.i.tioners had recognized the approaching figure as well. Indeed, who else could it be?
They had finally seen a glint of hope. The Golden Foundation was known for protecting unaffiliated Pract.i.tioners!
Upon his landing, more than hundreds of Pract.i.tioners started whining in the pit ,”Mr Li, we were captured by the Pledge to work as free labor. Then, this man fought them off and continued forcing us to dig…”
Haha, just wait for your punishment! In their fantasy, Li Xianyi would take down the devil incarnate with his flying dagger, comfort them well and even distribute the remaining broken weapons to them.
But never had they expected what truly happened next. Li Xianyi, the guardian of justice only cast a brief look at them before turning to Lu Shu. “What’s going on? What’s in there?”
“More than 500 pieces of broken magical weapons. Just nice that’s what I need,” Lu Shu was being honest too, since the old folk was aware of his possession of the divine water.
In spite of the Pract.i.tioners’ expectant stares, Li Xianyi replied casually, “Carry on then.”
No matter whether they could understand Chinese, all of them had noticed Li Xianyi’s exceptional mildness towards the devil head, as though he was talking to his own grandson.
Certainly he was not from the Golden Foundation, whose members would identify themselves with their badges. Then who on Earth was he to earn Li Xianyi’s favor?!
What the h.e.l.l! What kind of monster was he!
From Li Xianyi’s point of view, there was no reason to stop there if the weapons excavated were of use to Lu Shu. In any case, he had full confidence of Lu Shu’s character and trusted that he would not kill unless necessary.
However, he still underestimated Lu Shu. In fact, they had unearthed all the weapons and now they were simply digging out dirt…
Desperation befell the Pract.i.tioners. All their fantasies earlier had perished.
Carry on then! Even the Golden Foundation had given up on justice, the cultivation realm was doomed!
