Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Although Lu Shu was not that brave to venture into the Changbai Mountains, he had been paying close attention to this matter from Luo City. Moreover, he, Lu Xiaoyu and Little Fury were taking turns to monitor the situation on the Golden Foundation forum.

This was a necessary move because all of them would have to flee if Lu Xiaoyu’s ability to capture spirits was exposed.

Most importantly, however, it depended on the stance taken by the Heavenly Network. Lu Shu was still hoping that the Heavenly Network had let their guard down towards him. Thus... there was still a glimmer of possibility that they would not mind him.

That was the best scenario. Lu Shu suddenly laughed at the thought. How did he end up in this place? Had he not tried to avoid creating close connections with this organization since the very beginning?

But as time went by, they realized that the opposite party had no intention to reveal Lu Xiaoyu’s powers. Instead, they kept quiet and watched on as the matters became more chaotic.

Nevertheless, the trend on the forum was still going against the Golden Foundation and the Heavenly Network.

In fact, even the core members of the Heavenly Network was utterly shocked and confused because the power to capture spirits was unprecedented. Although they acknowledged the existence of special abilities, this one had never been seen nor recorded before.

Yet, the few who had more information about the situation managed to narrow down their scope of search after seeing the Koh Chang remains. For instance, all of those in the senior management level had a name list of the Heavenly Network members who had entered the remains. However, they could not identify anyone with the specified traits. Therefore, they concluded that it was a slander on the Heavenly Network.

Nonetheless, some people remained skeptical because they could not be sure that there were no secrets hidden by those who had entered the remains, including Lu Shu, Lu Xiaoyu and You Mingyu. historical

Yet, all discussion regarding this issue had gone silent, as if the senior management had ordered the intelligence system to keep the information to even higher levels.

One day before the inter-college contest, a few foreigners were captured in the peripheral regions of the Changbai Mountains. They had really followed the route suggested by the post on the Golden Foundation forum and entered the Changbai Mountains after landing at Port Artyom.

It was thought that they might be stopped by the Red Sparrows, but the organization chose to keep quiet about the matter. Moreover, it seemed that they had silently permitted their entry so as to test the waters in the Heavenly Network!

This was a risky move because the Heavenly Network had shown no mercy to the trespassing of master. They hoped the Heavenly Network might adopt a softer method such as deportation for secret practitioners.

Therefore, the Red Sparrows had decided not to make any moves directly on their part. Instead, they used other people to test the stance of the Heavenly Network. In fact, the entire world was watching whether the secret practitioners could gain something from entering the territory of the Heavenly Network.

As a matter of fact, however, most secret practitioners only dared to spectate from Port Artyom. At this moment, updates came in from the first group who had entered the Changbai Mountains. They posted on the Golden Foundation forum with photos that they had discovered a restricted area in the mountains. Not only was the place strictly guarded, it was also equipped with an extremely powerful sword formation which had already killed a few secret practitioners!

The writers of the posts had also risked their lives so as not to be caught by the Heavenly Network.

It was said that the sword formation consisted of 36 pieces of a complete sword pinned along the valley. They would be activated immediately to kill once anyone got close.

Moreover... some people claimed that they felt as if they were being watched by the abyss when they walked near to the valley.

In the end, the conclusion was that both the Changbai Mountains and the Heavenly Network were intentionally hiding something from the world!

As for the sword formation, the majority of the Heavenly Network members had no clue either. For some reason, Nie Ting had restricted the information to only himself.

In fact, there were only two pieces of information in the Heavenly Network inaccessible by the Heavenly Kings. One was Lu Shu’s files, and the other was about the secrets inside the Changbai Mountains...

However, the problem was, many people were suspecting that the Heavenly Network wanted to take the lion’s share of the Ancient Yi treasures in the mountains since the organization remained tight-lipped about all the details.

So why did Nie Ting not silence those voices? That was not like him!

In Lu Shu’s impression, Nie Ting would quietly appear like a ghost and kill all who trespassed the national borders... Moreover, the current situation did not look hopeful to them as even Class C’s had recently been caught among the secret practitioners trying to enter the mountains. But even so, it was only the local branch of the Heavenly Network that was handling the issue.

However, the Heavenly Network had also organized a team to be sent into the Changbai Mountains. This time, so many people were called on that it seemed as if the first cultivation world war was about to begin.

Lu Shu wondered if Nie Ting was distracted by something more serious because he would never have tolerated foreign practitioners approaching the valley.

In the end, the inter-college contest began when the tensions were at the highest. All of the cultivation students were aware that something unusual was going on in the Changbai Mountains.

Even Zhao Yongchen and You Mingyu had tried to persuade Lu Shu to stop watching the contest and move into the Changbai Mountains immediately.

On one hand, they were worried that Lu Shu would become a dangerous and uncertain factor if he remained in the college, and on the other hand, a number of them admitted that Lu Shu was the most suitable candidate for managing foreign affairs.

Lu Shu’s power still remained a mystery as of now. Yet, You Mingyu, Zhong Yutang, Zhao Yongchen and Hao Zhichao speculated that Lu Shu was the first man under the Class A’s and no one else could overpower him.

Thus, the Changbai Mountains would be safe with Lu Shu’s presence so long as no Class A’s visited the site personally...

Furthermore, Lu Shu had established his reputation through the Sardinia trip. Thus, it was widely known within the Heavenly Network that Lu Shu was simply mean, but not cold-blooded.

But other organizations thought otherwise. With so much blood on his hands, Lu Shu was publicly recognized as one of the most dangerous figures in the cultivation world.

Some people had even ranked Lu Shu as the second man in the Heavenly Network, above Chen Baili in terms of how dangerous he was...
