Chapter 985: Arrival of Lu Shu

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Sun Zhongyang was very intelligent. To Lu Shu, that was a known fact since the beginning. Many people hoped that aristocrats were rich and foolish, but in reality, the fact was that what he had was actually hard-earned.

For example, Sun Zhongyang had an elegant demeanour. This was because his father hoped that he could have sufficient capability and charisma during the next contest for the head of the family.

For example, Mo Xiaoya had figured out Lu Shu’s true personality since the start...

Therefore, the same thing could not be done three times. After Ding Qiushui was dealt with, Lu Shu did not intend to make use of Sun Zhongyang and the rest anymore. It would be disastrous if he annoyed them too much.

Moreover, if he was exposed, Sun Zhongyang would not give him the remaining three million dollars.

Sun Zhongyang wanted to punch Lu Shu’s face. He recalled when Lu Shu said that he knew Lu Shu and could help to identify him, his expression was so natural and his acting skills were flawless...

He could not understand how Lu Shu managed to both stay so calm all this time and cheat them of their money.

Sun Zhongyang sighed. Actually, Lu Shu did not cheat them of their money. Without Lu Shu, they would have died on the way.

“You trained the Wei Wu Army?” asked Sun Zhongyang curiously.

“Yes.” Lu Shu smiled happily. “Pay up the remaining sum and remember our agreement. I want the magical armor.”

Sun Zhongyang signalled for someone to pass the box of notes to Lu Shu. He examined the young man from head to toe. He would not have believed that he trained the Wei Wu Army if he had not followed him for the entire journey.

In the Luniverse where power was honored, most of the children of the palace hoped to become famous fighters when they achieved a high level of skills. Although Sun Zhongyang said that he wanted to beat Lu Shu up, he was also very impressed by Lu Shu.

The entire Luniverse knew how the Wei Wu Army was like in the past. And now, everyone also knew how the Wei Wu Army could not be messed with...

Sun Zhongyang’s emotions were extremely complicated. However, he felt that he met the criteria to become friends with Lu Shu? As long as he had money... He understood why Lu Shu collaborated with the gambling dens of the palace to make the bets, it was all for money!

Mo Xiaoya, who was beside him, was even more shocked than Sun Zhongyang. Initially, she looked down on Lu Shu as she felt that it was bad for Lu Shu to betray others. However, she did not expect Lu Shu to betray himself...

At this moment, the news that Ding Qiushui was eliminated was spread throughout the entire palace. Some people said that the palace was so big that even a Rank One expert needed to fly for one entire day to get to the other end.

Although this was an exaggeration, it showed how majestic one felt about the palace. Visitors from all around the world came over to make business, enjoy themselves and worship the King.

However, the news regarding the Sword Hut selection seemed to “fly” faster than the Rank One expert.

Everyone was extremely shocked. The gamblers had nothing to say as they held onto their worthless bets. Ding Qiushui’s background was extraordinary. There were rumors claiming that he was the illegitimate child of one of the great masters under the rule of the North Lord of Heaven, Yu Fuyao.

Besides that, during the five years where Ding Qiushui served the Guangan Army, he killed two Rank One experts.

This was the reason why Ding Qiushui was so confident of entering the Sword Hut selection, as well as the reason behind why the gamblers of the palace placed their bets on him. Some of them bet that he would win the first place while some bet that he would be able to clinch one of the four vacancies. Those who were more cautious bet that Ding Qiushui would last through the first round.

However... Everyone was disappointed.

Nobody expected Ding Qiushui, near the top of the candidate list, to be eliminated. Moreover, the people who attacked him were also identified. It was the expert of the Sun family and the Mo family, the 12 of them attacked and beat Ding Qiushui up violently.

Many of the gamblers could not understand as they stood beside the Long Yin River. Why did the Sun family and the Mo familly beat Ding Qiushui up if they were not involved in the Sword Hut selections? Ding Qiushui was so likeable, how could they beat him up!

At this moment, the entire world of the gamblers fell apart. Nobody bothered about whether Ding Qiushui was likeable or not.

However, the Sun family, Mo family and the other families did not give any explanation.

Yi Qian went around the city with the gambling den’s receipt that Lu Shu gave him. Lu Shu had placed a heavy bet. Apart from the Song gambling den, the ten other gambling dens in the palace were also extremely unhappy and looked as though they had been robbed.,,

Lu Shu knew it by a simple calculation. He was able to obtain 2000 magical armors this time.

Initially, he was worried that the gambling den would not admit it. However, he underestimated the capability and credibility of the gambling dens of the palace. The Song gambling den had been established for almost a thousand years. If they were not credible, how would anyone be willing to place a bet at their den?

Moreover, although Lu Shu took away nearly six months’ worth of profits of the palace, as compared to the long days to come, this small amount of losses would not shake the foundations and was not worth the outrage of the gambling den. historical

The boss of the Song gambling den was sitting in the backyard of the gambling den and making his cup of tea. He looked extremely calm.

However, no matter how calm he was, he could not control how his hand shivered.

Accompanying a king was like accompanying a tiger. The aristocrats were like their king. If they lost such a great sum of money, the boss of the Song gambling den would be taken over by someone else.

The managers nearby did not dare to speak. They were waiting for Xiao Mingze to think about his life.

At this moment, Xiao Mingze suddenly asked, “Have you figured out who he is?”

“We didn’t manage to follow him. He is a Rank One expert and it’s difficult for us to catch up.” One of the managers shook his head. “Moreover, the rules of the gambling den stated that we are not allowed to check on Rank One experts. We have already violated the rules.”

Xiao Mingze put down his teacup and said firmly, “I have a feeling that Lu Shu, the commander of the Wei Wu Army, has already reached the palace...”

“You mean?” asked one of the managers cautiously.

“He could have taken the money and left,” sighed Xiao Mingze. He had been worried that Lu Shu would become the top ranked candidate after he sold the booklet. This would definitely cause Lu Shu to be unhappy as everyone knew that Lu Shu was more concerned over the outcome of the Sword Hut selection.

There was a common understanding that anyone would choose to enter the Sword Hut for the prestige as compared to simply earning money.

Although Ding Qiushui’s elimination seemed to be completely unrelated to Lu Shu, Xiao Mingze’s intuition told him that Lu Shu was the culprit.

In the past, they had collaborated with Lu Shu to sabotage others. Now, Lu Shu secretly sabotaged them. It must be karma!

“So what do we do?” asked the manager, “We really created more trouble.”

“I will report this matter to the owner of the family. He likes Lu Shu a lot,” said the big boss Xiao Mingze, “Send all the forces to look for Lu Shu and tell him... We can discuss matters!”

At this moment, Xiao Mingze felt that the power of that sentence was insufficient and added, “I, Xiao Mingze, will owe him a favor!”
