Chapter 1146: Mystery of the Celestial Map
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
He examined the surroundings. He was in midair. There was air but he was surrounded by darkness and some blinking stars.
Lu Shu frowned. “Is there anyone here?”
This scene was too strange. He had specially asked Nie Ting what did it feel like to step into a void. Nie Ting and s.h.i.+ Xuejin both said that it was merely opening a door that connected to another s.p.a.ce.
Could it be that he got the wrong address? That was impossible. He should be able to reach the place he had in mind. Lu Shu was thinking about the yard in the Longmen Fortress!
Something was wrong but Lu Shu was not nervous because… he was in his celestial map.
Lu Shu figured that out when saw the regular arrangement in the huge nebula.
Lu Shu was aware that it was not an accident but a place that he would definitely reach after stepping into a void. There must be something hiding inside that was waiting for him to find, however, the celestial map had always been in his body and he had not found anything hiding yet.
At this moment, Lu Shu was even more curious about whether only his spirit or if his body had entered along with it.
Lu Shu wanted to see if the celestial map was still in his body. Then, he realized that he was unable to see anything. Even his celestial powers had disappeared.
At this moment, Lu Shu heard a sound from the night sky. “I prepared the food. You guys should wash the dishes.”
“You do it.”
“Why aren’t you doing it?”
“Then let…”
Lu Shu did not know whether to laugh or to cry. Wasn’t that Chen Zuan and Cheng Qiuqiao’s voices? So, only his mind had entered the celestial map, it must be like that…
Lu Shu heaved a sigh of relief. At least he could still go back. Lu Shu started to look for the secret in the celestial map, what exactly happened that made his mind enter the celestial map suddenly?
Yet, only a few minutes pa.s.sed before he heard a voice. “Eh? Why is Brother Shu standing in front of the door?”
“Exactly, Brother Shu, what are you doing?”
“Xiaoyu Xiaoyu, come quickly, what’s wrong with Brother Shu?”
Then, Cheng Qiuqiao cried, “What’s wrong with you, Brother Shu, please be alright!”
Chen Zuan cried too, “Brother Shu, if anything happens to you, how are we going to go to North America…”
“We need to wake him up!”
“Brother Shu, there’s 100 dollars on the floor… 200, 50,000!” Chen Zuan did not know what to do. “If he can’t wait up like that, it means that he had really fainted!”
Lu Shu gave a cold laugh. “Ha ha.”
If he was not looking for the secrets in the celestial map, he would have slapped Chen Zuan’s head…
Lu Shu stopped thinking about what happened in the real world. With Lu Xiaoyu protecting him, nothing should go wrong.
At this moment, Lu Shu suddenly saw Concealed Arrow, Corpsedog, Seizing Thief, Non-Toxic and the Gourd flying towards him after leaving the main stars.
Lu Shu felt connected as he looked at them. However, at this moment, the swords and the gourd looked very big.
Instead of the swords enlarging, it felt as though he had shrunk.
Concealed Arrow went beneath Lu Shu’s feet in order to let Lu Shu fly. However, the Gourd knocked the Concealed Arrow away and made Lu Shu sit on itself… Both the Concealed Arrow and the Corpsedog felt annoyed but were afraid to offend the Gourd.
Lu Shu patted the Gourd. “Why are you so bossy.”
However, thinking about it, it was normal for the Gourd to not listen to Lu Shu… In the past, he had regarded the Gourd as a “third party” and therefore he could use the Gourd to block the divine lightning anytime he wanted. After all, the Gourd was not obedient too.
However now, be it the Gourd, the Concealed Arrow or the Corpsedog, he viewed them equally…
Carrying Lu Shu, the Gourd flew towards the edge of the celestial map. Lu Shu was stunned. That should be the location for the sixth and seventh nebula and had yet to be lit up.
However, the next moment, the Gourd had flown beyond the Ninth Nebula. When Lu Shu stood up and looked down at all the stars beneath him, a wave of emotions. .h.i.t him.
Lu Shu said calmly, “What do you want me to see?”
The Gourd spurted out patches of starlight. Lu Shu saw a sword standing calmly in the middle of the night sky. There was a drop of fresh blood on the tip of the sword.
Lu Shu immediately grabbed the sword. It was entirely silver and it was delicate and sharp.
He placed the sword horizontally in front of him and saw a line of small words engraved on it. “I only need 30 percent of the scenery.”
Lu Shu was stunned. Then, he immediately realized that the sword belonged to the owner of the Sword Hut!
How did that sword end up in the celestial map? Lu Shu found out that the sword’s aura was similar to the celestial map. How did something that did not belong to the celestial map accomplish that?
He examined the drop of blood on the tip of the sword closely. Lu Shu suddenly looked at the Gourd. “Let me ask you a question. If your answer is ‘yes’, you nod your head. Or else, you shake your head. Did anyone use the blood on the sword’s tip to sign a Treaty of Alliance with the celestial map?”
The Gourd nodded and Lu Shu fell silent.
He had roughly figured out what had happened. The celestial map seemed to be equal as it was comprised of both the bright and the dark maps. However, it was obvious that the bright part was the actual main component.
Lu Shu did not know how the celestial map chose the dark map. However, this time, the celestial map had reached an agreement with the other party and had willingly taken up the dark map.
Lu Shu turned the sword and was stunned again. There was another line of small words that was seemingly engraved at a later date. “I don’t even need ten percent of the sceneries. I only want the person.”
When he was in the Luniverse, Lu Shu had once felt impressed by the spirit of the lady who wanted 30 percent of the scenery.
However, for some reason, Lu Shu felt that it was a pity.The lady who was powerful enough to fight with the old King of G.o.ds in the palace of the King of G.o.ds gave up on what she wanted.
She gave up everything and only wanted someone’s heart.
Lu Shu had initially thought that he would obtain a precious magical weapon when he arrived at the celestial map. However, he received another gift that was more special.
As compared to this gift, the magical weapon was worth nothing.
At this moment, a sound came from above the night sky. “Lu Shu, I give you three seconds to open your eyes. Did you hear me!”
Lu Shu smiled and opened his eyes, causing his mind to return to the normal world. “Lu Xiaoyu, you need to change your bad temper. I was only kidding, do you have to react like this to my joke?”
Lu Xiaoyu pouted and went back to the room. “Lunatic!”
“Brother Shu, are you really alright?” Chen Zuan and Cheng Qiuqiao looked at each other. “I felt like you weren’t acting earlier on.”
Lu Shu paused for a moment and looked at Chen Zuan, “Have you washed the dishes?”
“Not yet…” Chen Zuan said cautiously.
With a loud slap, Lu Shu slapped the back of Chen Zuan’s head and said. “She told you to wash them!”
