Chapter 1261: Many Patterns
Chapter 1261: Many Patterns
Since the appearance of the Imperial Dragon Soldiers and until now, Duanmu Huangqi had always been waiting in the West Capital. He had not moved.
Lu Shu and the rest continued to attack cities and seize territories. At first, they had assumed that Duanmu Huangqi would not be able to wait but to their surprise, the West Lord of Heaven seemed to be indifferent to what was happening outside. There seemed to be no reaction.
What was the impression the people in the Luniverse had of Duanmu Huangqi? He was distrusting and tyrannical.
In the past, when the King of Gods went on an expedition, Duanmu Huangqi had killed countless people. As the number one underling of the King of Gods, people were terrified by the sight of him. Some said that Duanmu Huangqi was the King of Gods’ most loyal lackey but he was also the craziest.
Any enemies of his would not be able to sleep well at night.
In those years, there were countless enemies who had been destroyed by Duanmu Huangqi.
Some asked, why did the old King of Gods make Duanmu Huangqi the West Lord of Heaven?
When the King of Gods went on his expedition, the West Region displayed the most resistance. After 3000 years of war, the old King of Gods had left the unyielding West Region to last and back then, many soldiers had died and a lot of blood had been shed. The war only ended when every soldier had been killed.
Even then, there were civilians still planning to rebel.
The old King of Gods had said that the West Region was worthy of respect, but rulers could not govern the world based on their feelings. Thus, in the end, he sent the most cruel Duanmu Huangqi to guard the West Region.
The first few hundred years were days of complete darkness to the people of the West Region, but over time Duanmu Huangqi completely changed the West Region, to the point that there were not many differences between the West Region and the other regions. They were now even more loyal to the old King of Gods.
Needless to say, the old King of Gods was harsh in utilisation of his people. This was the difference between the old King of Gods and Lu Shu. Although the old King of Gods often had his warm and annoying moments, he was still the King of Gods that people bowed their heads to.
If Duanmu Huangqi’s hands were full of blood, then the old King of Gods’ entire body was bathed in blood. He would never be able to wash the traces of blood off.
But most importantly, that Duanmu Huangqi did not react while Lu Shu and the rest attacked his cities and seized his territories. This was puzzling. The Imperial Dragon Soldiers were about to reach the West Capital.
Not even one year had passed since Duanmu Huangqi had rebelled. This massive change was very bewildering.
The entire Luniverse was trying to guess Duanmu Huangqi’s thoughts. What caused Duanmu Huangqi to act so strangely? Had Duanmu Huangqi and Lu Shu already exchanged blows in the land of forefathers? Thus, was Duanmu Huangqi afraid of Lu Shu?
Some people thought differently. Had Lu Shu advanced to the master realm? But they felt that the possibility of this occurring was not high. Lu Shu had just advanced to Rank One when he left the palace, right?
Of course, some mentioned that the Sun family had released information that Lu Shu had advanced to Rank One a lot earlier than everyone thought. However, this news was also why many people thought that the massive heavenly vision did not belong to Lu Shu.
But he had advanced to the master realm too quickly. In less than two years, he had advanced from Rank One to the master realm. What kind of genius was he?
But no matter what, many people suddenly felt that Duanmu Huangqi had not moved because he feared the young man that the entire Luniverse had once underestimated!
The Imperial Dragon Soldiers’ seemingly unplanned attack was definitely not under Li Liang’s orders. More accurately, Li Liang was now very annoyed.
After Lu Shu did this, he did not think about what Duanmu Huangqi would think. He did not think about what the wealthy families in the palace would think. Lu Shu had not made any plans since he entered the Luniverse.
But this unpredictable behavior caused the Luniverse to remain frustrated and anguished over what exactly the Imperial Dragon Soldiers wanted to achieve.
The wealthy families did not dare to pledge their loyalty to Duanmu Huangqi, but they did not dare to come into contact with Lu Shu. They would go with the flow.
Li Liang asked, “Great Lord, what are you planning...”
Chen Zuan butted in. “Brother Shu, what did you do that for? You took in so many people. You still have to feed them. How much money will you spend? Furthermore, have you considered...”
Lu Shu interrupted Chen Zuan. “Let me ask you. Why did Lao Zi write the Book of Dao?”
Chen Zuan was dumbfounded. “How would I know? Why?”
Lu Shu paused for two seconds. “Because Lao Zi wanted to.”
Chen Zuan was speechless.
“From Chen Zuan’s distress, +666!”
Li Liang did not speak either. All he had to do was carry out what the Great Lord thought of. He was not as rigid as Chen Zuan and Li Heitan!
Li Liang commanded the Imperial Dragon Soldiers to pitch a camp near Liujian Pass. They had traveled a long way. They had walked back and forth across half of the West Region. Even the Imperial Dragon Soldiers could not stand it for much longer.
But they rested up and anticipated the next fight. Li Liang felt that the true battle was coming up. They were about to face one of the people who held the most power and authority in the Luniverse. Furthermore, Lu Shu had also privately discussed with him that they had to prevent some people from attacking.
Back then, Li Liang thought that Lu Shu had worried too much. Even if the wealthy families from the palace came, they were no match for the Imperial Dragon Soldiers. But Lu Shu had a deeper concern. He was worried that the mastermind would save Duanmu Huangqi. After all, Duanmu Huangqi had used exactly the same method to leave the Earth as the 21 Rank One underlings.
At midnight, everyone in Lu Shu’s celestial map quietly sat down... and did homework.
No matter how tiring it was for them to reclaim barren hills in the day, they had to do two hours of homework at night. This was the law in the fourth level of nebula...
Sun Zhongyang thought about how he had left the palace, full of confidence. His father probably did not know that he was doing homework here...
Even Li Heitan and the rest had to do homework. It was just that they did homework for a shorter period of time.
Li Heitan curiously asked, “Great Lord, are you making us do homework simply to torture us?”
Lu Xiaoyu looked at Lu Shu. She seemed to have an idea. Lu Shu quickly said, “Why would you think so? I am doing this for your future. If you are not civilized, how will you find a wife? You have seen for yourselves. The women on Earth are highly civilized. What if you have communication problems with your family?”
Li Heitan complained, “Chen Zuan is civilized, but he has not found a wife.”
Chen Zuan, who was happily observing at the side, exploded. “What does this have to do with me? Don’t attack me like that!”
Lu Shu thought about it and said, “How about this? I will give you a problem. If you give me the correct answer, you do not have to do homework. A bear has fallen into a well. The well is 190.617 meters deep. The bear fell for 20 seconds. What color is the bear?”
Li Heitan raised his hand. “Great Lord, the mass and speed has not changed. It is still a brown bear! Brown!”
Lu Shu looked at Li Heitan with caring eyes. “Foolish child. If you fall 190 meters, you will die. Your body will be covered with blood. Thus, the bear is brownish red.”
Li Heitan was speechless.
“From Li Heitan’s distress, +666!”
