Chapter 523: Bringing Lu Shu Home

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Before she had advanced to Class B, Coral was a mid-tier Class D with impressive power.

The young girl did not wait for Coral to finish thinking. She suddenly spoke in English. “All those left of the Collection of Gods have gone to Nishinokyo. You cannot escape by the normal route, especially with your injuries. Follow me.”

Coral stood still. She did not know who this girl was, let alone dare to trust her.

The young girl turned her head to look at Coral. “I am Sakurai Yaeko. You can call me Sakurai... the guy on your back. Is that Lu Shu-kun?”

This was Sakurai’s first time seeing Lu Shu’s actual appearance with her own two eyes. The delicate and pretty face was fast asleep. For some reason, Sakurai felt that Lu Shu’s original appearance was much better than that of Kirihara Yousuke’s.

Coral did not trust Sakurai, but looking at the expression in her eyes, her female instincts made her smile. “Lead the way. I’ll follow you.”

She felt that she had seen the shadows in her own eyes. Coral understood that Sakurai would not do anything that would hurt Lu Shu.

Yaeko drove here, her car was hidden by the road. Coral lightly lay Lu Shu on the back seat. His legs had to be bent because he was too tall.

Sakurai silently concentrated on Coral taking care of Lu Shu. She had to admit that Coral was prettier than her. Coral’s ability level was also much higher than hers. She had the power to single handedly eliminate Kitamura at Nishinokyo, and to defeat two families in hiding, this was not something that anyone could do.

Coral was also the Master of Gods of the Deities. The difference between their position and influence was far too great.

But most importantly, she could feel the purity of Coral’s adoration towards Lu Shu. It was so pure that it hurt.

Sakurai may have found the reason why Lu Shu did not succumb to her temptation. This feeling was very contradictory.

Yaeko sat in the driver’s seat, while Coral sat in the passenger seat. Sakurai suddenly asked, “Are you and Lu Shu...”

Before waiting for Sakurai to finish, Coral replied with urgency and certainty, “Lovers.”

As she finished speaking, she took a sideway glance at Lu Shu, who was still sleeping soundly. She was only relieved after checking that Lu Shu did not hear what she had said. Coral always had a guilty conscience when she said this, she knew that Lu Shu’s feelings were not on the same level as hers...

Sakurai stopped talking. Hugging herself with delight, Coral asked, “Are you a member of the Collection of Gods?”

“Yes,” said Sakurai.

“How do you know Lu Shu?” Coral was somewhat curious.

Sakurai had nothing to hide. She explained the story of how Lu Shu disguised himself as Kirihara Yousuke. Although Coral was very tired, she took a lot of interest in listening to Sakurai’s story. So Lu Shu had done so many things after coming to Japan!

Coral asked, “Now that the Collection of Gods is in decline... what are your plans from now on?”

For some reason, Sakurai had nothing to hide. “I want to stay behind and reorganise the Collection of Gods.”

Sakurai did not know why she had made such a decision. It was very risky, yet there seemed to be a reason for doing so.

The Class B’s in the Collection of Gods had been eliminated. Even the Class C’s had suffered heavy losses. Sakurai thought about those families in hiding. Although this was a very difficult task, but it was not impossible. She wanted to try using the resources and inheritance from the Conservative Oda Tokuma that were now in her hands!

Someone suddenly fell from the sky and landed in front of the car. Her black coat fluttered in the cold January wind. Coral closed her mouth. She definitely knew who this person was. Sakurai did as well.

Nie Ting calmly said, “Please hand Lu Shu over to me.”

Coral and Sakurai did not expect that Lu Shu could trouble the legendary top expert in the East to come and fetch him personally. The current situation in the Heavenly Network was not very stable either. Many people from the large organisations hid in the neighbouring countries and were held back by him, as they glared like a tiger eyeing its prey. Despite this, Nie Ting still came.

In reality, Nie Ting departed from the Capital as soon as he heard that Takashima was preparing for the sacrificial ritual in order to rapidly advance to Class A. He had come as quickly as he could.

But he did not expect everything to already be over before he had arrived. According to his calculations, Lu Shu should have been in great danger. This sort of danger was beyond what Lu Shu could handle. That was the reason why Nie Ting had rushed over.

But Nie Ting could not understand how the battle had completely ended the moment he rushed over.

He had just come from the fortress. When he saw the interior of the fortress, it was very difficult for him to make an accurate deduction over what had happened. Did Lu Shu kill Takashima? Why were there sword marks along the walls of the fortress?

Not only that, Nie Ting felt more clearly than Takashima. He was very sure that within a three kilometre radius, there had been the sound of Dao, as well as heaven and earth resonating. They had still not completely disappeared.

He had once focused his attention on this young man, who was previously selling stinky tofu. How did he progress to where he was today?

It was not difficult for Nie Ting to link sword marks and the sound of the Dao to Lu Shu. Nie Ting had even guessed that these sword marks had came from Li Xianyi, from this Nie Ting could understand how Lu Shu inherited these.

Nie Ting suddenly asked, “Was it you guys who killed Takashima?”

Coral and Sakurai surprisingly answered in sync. “I don’t know.”

The two of them knew that Lu Shu was hiding a secret. Coral knew a bit more, and Sakurai knew a bit less. But the two of them had decided to keep their mouths shut, as Lu Shu was still unconscious, even if Nie Ting was Lu Shu’s superior.

Nie Ting laughed. “Okay. I will bring Lu Shu away. You can leave by yourselves.”

Without further ado, Nie Ting walked to the side of the car. He placed his slender index finger on Lu Shu’s neck and checked for his pulse. After confirming that he had no problems, Nie Ting carried Lu Shu on his shoulder, ready to soar into the sky.

Coral suddenly said, “I, on behalf of the Deities, would like to be allies with the Heavenly Network. Heavenly King Nie, what do you think?”

Nie Ting looked at her calmly. “I can send Lu Shu to discuss this with you. From now on, he will be in charge of the Heavenly Network’s external relations.”

Coral was pleasantly surprised. “Really?”

“Yes.” Nie Ting was a smart person. He knew that 80% of the reason why Coral had come to Japan was because of Lu Shu. But he was not sure of the relationship between Lu Shu and Coral...

There was nothing in his information that mentioned this...

But no matter what, since Lu Shu would be in charge of overseas affairs from now on, it was only right for him to settle these kind of things.

Coral asked, “Where are you bringing Lu Shu to?” historical

“I’m bringing him home,” Nie Ting said solemnly.

Coral was dumbfounded. Just now, when Lu Shu was helping Liu Xiu to reduce the number of corpses, he had used the same phrase. Nie Ting had used the same phrase as he brought Nie Ting away. It was as if that simple phrase had a boundless charm that attracted her.
