Lu Shu’s impression of the Heavenly Network was always changing.

When Lu Shu fist encountered the Heavenly Network at the temple fair, he thought that the Heavenly Network was dangerous. He had awakened and was afraid that the Heavenly Network would take him away to conduct research. He was also scared that he would be made to work to death.

Later on, when Nie Ting came to find Li Xianyi, his imposing aura left a deep impression on Lu Shu. Back then, Lu Shu felt that was like the Embroidered Uniform Guard 1 . He could not provoke them.

Later on, he encountered Li Yixiao. Lu Shu suddenly realized that there were such Heavenly Kings in the Heavenly Network. Furthermore, the Heavenly Network was not as harsh as he had expected. To the extent that... you would occasionally encounter Heavenly Kings who were not respectable.

When he met Liu Xiu, Lu Shu understood the meaning of camaraderie and faith in the Heavenly Network. When Lu Shu encountered Zhao Yongchen, his feelings grew stronger.

Now that there were two Heavenly Kings who were addicted to the internet, Lu Shu did not know what to feel.

But the competition was about to begin. Lu Shu still had duties to fulfill. He could not care much about this now.

At the same time, Li Xianyi flew overseas and headed towards the Changbai Mountains.

The Golden Foundation had been involved with the Puppet Masters for many years. When they realized that their top powers were no longer equally matched with the Puppet Masters, they often held emergency meetings with the directors. One of the most important matters discussed was to focus on the experts who had the potential to advance to Class A. They could only challenge the Puppet Masters with more Class A’s. If not, a battle would exhaust the Golden Foundation’s resources. People like Zhi Wei were close to advancement. Even the Heavenly Network could not match up to the heritage of the Golden Foundation. Everyone was focused on breaking through. Thus, Li Xianyi was the only one handling external affairs.

Not everyone could advance to Class A. It required aptitude and class. Zhi Wei had been stuck at peak Class B for a full six months. Even after Li Xianyi had explained the epiphanies of advancement to him, it only provided him with clues. He had to do it himself.

Some were already stuck at the bottleneck. They were unable to break through even after a year. It was as if heaven and earth had given up on them and did not want to cooperate with them...

Li Xianyi had flown through the clouds and started his descent. The thick clouds seemed unwilling to part with him and wound around him like silk threads. But Li Xianyi was too fast. The clouds immediately dissipated.

He did not land within the country. The Changbai Mountains stretched over hundreds of kilometers. Li Xianyi was at a mountain peak outside the country called Jiangjun Peak.

Li Xianyi called Nie Ting. “I am at Jiangjun Peak. Please give me permission to enter the country.”

Nie Ting calmly said over the phone, “The Heavenly Network welcomes you.”

Li Xianyi had talked to Nie Ting personally about coming to the Changbai Mountains to patrol the area.

A week ago, Li Xianyi had thought that Nie Ting would not allow a member of the Golden Foundation to enter the country. After Li Xianyi had returned to the Golden Foundation and became the chief director, their interests had become very different. The agreements established in the past were also cancelled.

But Li Xianyi did not expect Nie Ting to agree. Nie Ting simply told him which areas he could not go to. The sword formation only recognized Nie Ting, and he could confirm that whatever was inside the sword formation had nothing to do with the Ancient Yi Clan treasure.

No one was around to stop Li Xianyi. It was possible that no one else knew he was here. But he had promised Nie Ting that he would ask for the opinion of the Heavenly Network before entering the country. He was like a man of virtue who did not care whether there was anyone around him. He would always be strict with himself.

He told Nie Ting because he had to. He felt that this was correct, and it aligned with his personal values.

After Li Xianyi received permission, he once again flew into the sky. He started to search the entire Changbai Mountains seriously.

At that moment, a picture of Li Xianyi flying in the Changbai Mountains suddenly appeared on the Golden Foundation forum.

The person who uploaded the photo had definitely planned this out. Some users said that Li Xianyi already knew that there was something unusual in the Changbai Mountains. The treasure would appear soon.

The ordinary Practitioners and Metahumans did not know why Li Xianyi had gone to the Changbai Mountains. Now, first impressions were the strongest. Everyone believed that Li Xianyi had found something unusual because of the media!

Of course, the Golden Foundation realized that someone had deliberately orchestrated this. They were very malicious and had done thorough preparation. If not, how would they be able to take a picture of Li Xianyi? This was definitely a major conspiracy.

The Golden Foundation quickly deleted the post, blocked the search and suspended the account. However, when they checked the IP address, they could not find the culprit. historical

But the culprit was not afraid of their account being suspended. They created three new accounts. Even the Practitioners who were observing the situation grew suspicious. The entire forum started to talk about this incident!

They could not shut down the forum for now. If they did, others would grow even more suspicious. There were already people saying that the Golden Foundation wanted to take the treasure of the Ancient Yi Clan for themselves.

Even Li Xianyi had most likely not expected that the culprit did not think that the rumors would be enough to trick secret practitioners and other large organizations to go to the Changbai Mountains. It was as if they had known from the very beginning that a member from the Golden Foundation would go. They would then use the Golden Foundation to make everyone believe that this was true.

At this point, very few people would believe what the Golden Foundation said. Even the secret practitioners who owed the Golden Foundation a favor were somewhat suspicious.

Lu Shu once said that this world was evil. Someone who has always done good deeds might be misunderstood because of one incident, and subsequently fall. On the other hand, when someone who has always done evil deeds occasionally does good deeds, people would praise them. They would say, “Humans are still decent. What is in the past had never happened.”

But at that moment, Lu Shu, who had been observing, suddenly realized that the culprit had turned its attention to the Heavenly Network after making everyone believe that there was a treasure in the Changbai Mountains.

It was as if all the plans had been designed in advance. The culprit was systematically going through every step. It was like a genius chess player who had already thought about how he could defeat his enemy. The vast realm of cultivation was his chess board.

But Lu Shu did not react. After all, the Heavenly Network had Nie Ting in charge. He was the only Shen Cang Jing in the world. Who would dare to provoke them?

Suddenly, a new thread appeared. Lu Shu furrowed his eyebrows and scrolled down. The thread said that there was someone in the Heavenly Network who could capture spirits and control them. A former Class B expert had his spirit taken away. He would never be able to achieve peace.

The thread did not reveal who this Heavenly Network member was, but Lu Shu broke out in a cold sweat. This was one of his and Lu Xiaoyu’s greatest secrets!
