Spare Me, Great Lord!

Panda Novel

They only needed a piece of news from a distant place. The competition between the seven major Cultivation Colleges, which had been highly anticipated, seemed to have been forgotten. No one talked about it.

The intense discussions regarding the competition on the forum stopped. No one talked about who the strongest school was. No one cared about the results of this competition.

Everyone was now talking about the Changbai Mountains. It was as if this was the only matter that could affect their spirits.

This was the first time in the history of the Heavenly Network that they had faced so many outsiders. In the past, Nie Ting alone would be enough to deal with them. But now, Nie Ting could not recklessly attack.

Someone commented on the Cultivation College forum. “Heavenly King Nie, please attack. All the members of the Heavenly Network are willing to die with you. It does not matter even if the entire world is destroyed.”

But the problem was, these passionate and excited youth had this awareness, while others did not. Ordinary people looked at the Golden Foundation forum as well. Thus, when discussions were occurring on the Golden Foundation forum, the ordinary people also voiced their concerns.

The students in the Cultivation College believed in mutual destruction. They would rather kill than face dishonor. They would not mind even if the world was destroyed after Nie Ting had made his move.

But many ordinary people suddenly stepped out and voiced their hope that the war within the realm of cultivation would not affect the safety of the world.

Their voices became louder and louder. It was as if it had been orchestrated.

Lu Shu had thought that the controller had decided to orchestrate this on the Golden Foundation forum instead of in the Darkness Kingdom. Did they hope that Nie Ting would be affected by the opinions of ordinary people as well?

This was a very difficult decision. When the British withdrew from Dunkirk, even the wise Churchill was in a dilemma between giving in and fighting till the end. Who could claim that they were wise and farsighted?

It was easy for the observers, but only those who were involved knew how much courage was needed to make this decision.

All the spies that had to be killed had been killed, and those who had to be captured had been captured. The students started to discuss their plans to go to the Changbai Mountains and resist their opponents. Some even wrote letters with their blood, expressing their determination. They wanted to request permission for them to join the war. But once they had finished writing their letters, they could not find You Mingyu or Zhong Yutang…

Lu Shu knew that You Mingyu had gone to the Changbai Mountains after the cleansing was done. Zhong Yutang had started to gather manpower at Yuzhou. They had no time to deal with their students!

The teachers in the Cultivation College started to become nervous. They had been entrusted with a mission in times of danger. They had to ensure that the students remained in the classroom. If they suddenly lost sight of this aim, and some students sneaked off to the Changbai Mountains, they would be responsible.

In the past, the Heavenly Network was afraid that the students were too fearful. But they were no longer fearful. All of them supported the war…

Lu Shu brought Lu Xiaoyu home. He silently entered his room and closed the door. He started to sort out all the clues.

Lu Xiaoyu leaned against the wall and furrowed her eyebrows. She tried to eavesdrop on him. Little Fury, who was beside her, wrote in its notebook. “What are you doing?”

Lu Xiaoyu furrowed her eyebrows. “Lu Shu isn’t even singing Twinkle Twinkle Little Star tonight. He must be very involved.”

Little Fury was dumbfounded. It did not understand what Twinkle Twinkle Little Star had to do with anything.

Lu Xiaoyu looked at Little Fury. “Go next door and ask Lu Shu why he isn’t singing Twinkle Twinkle Little Star.”

When Little Fury heard this, it felt that this could be a trap. It wrote, “Why don’t you ask?”

“Hm? You’ve gotten a lot smarter recently.” Lu Xiaoyu was surprised. “I want to test how adaptable you can be.”

Little Fury proudly wrote. “Sure.”

“What would happen if you go against Lu Xiaoyu?” Lu Xiaoyu asked.

Little Fury was dumbfounded.

She was not testing how adaptable it was. This was just a threat!

“From Little Fury’s distress, +499!”

Little Fury held its head and ran next door to ask. Lu Xiaoyu heard the sound of the window opening, followed by Little Fury being thrown out by Lu Shu.

“From Little Fury’s distress, +599!”

Lu Xiaoyu walked gingerly next door and looked in. Lu Shu was upset. “Since when did you know that I sing Twinkle Twinkle Little Star?”

“Since a very long time ago.” Lu Xiaoyu hid behind the door and observed Lu Shu’s expression.

“From Lu Shu’s distress, +666!”

“Come, let’s sit at the rooftop.” Lu Shu stood up, held Lu Xiaoyu’s hand and walked out with her. They jumped up onto the roof and looked at the evening lights.

“Are you thinking about whether to go to the Changbai Mountains?” Lu Xiaoyu asked curiously. Lu Xiaoyu understood Lu Shu best. Lu Shu often went to the rooftop when he was pent up.

“Yes.” Lu Shu nodded his head. “I know that there is danger waiting for me there. There are so many enemies waiting in the dark for you to fall into their trap. But you have no choice. This feeling… is unpleasant.”

“I think that it’ll be fine if we go.” Lu Xiaoyu softly said, “I can now absorb a third soul…”

Lu Shu gasped in shock. He wondered whether this was part of the controller’s plan. On the other hand, Lu Xiaoyu was already thinking about collecting a soul after killing someone…

But on the flip side, he could be happier with Lu Xiaoyu’s simple train of thought. If someone was planning something against him… then kill him and collect his soul.

“Lu Xiaoyu, I’m really envious of you,” sighed Lu Shu suddenly. Although Lu Xiaoyu’s train of thought was exceedingly simple, it reduced his troubles.

“Lu Shu, let’s go to the Changbai Mountains.” Lu Xiaoyu suddenly lowered her voice.

“Hm?” Lu Shu was dumbfounded. “Why?”

“I know that it will definitely be very dangerous. Someone is even expecting us to go there,” said Lu Xiaoyu. “But last night, I dreamed that something had happened to the old man in the Changbai Mountains. I don’t want anything to happen to him…”

Lu Shu was dumbfounded and looked at Lu Xiaoyu. He had wanted Lu Xiaoyu to go to school as he was worried that she would be disjointed with society. If she had no friends, no teachers, and no classmates, what if she became unsociable and eccentric?

Back then, Lu Shu was very clear that Lu Xiaoyu would not care about anything but Lu Shu.

Lu Xiaoyu and Lu Shu were originally selfish and unsociable kids. But they had never resented the society of the country they were in. When they were children, they did not have the concept of countries. They resented the entire world.

Lu Shu had never blamed society for being unfair. He was even grateful to those who had helped him. He understood gratitude better than others, as one would only learn to appreciate things after losing something.

What was more cruel than being abandoned by one’s own parents?

But many people had walked into their lives. One example was Li Xianyi.

Yes, the old man may be in danger under the scheme.

You Mingyu had told him that when he became Heavenly King, he could be aloof and indifferent. But why was he still aloof and indifferent when Li Xianyi was being ambushed? So what did he train for?
