Lu Shu looked at Chen Zuan with the corners of his mouth curled up. “Little An, you know fear too?”
Chen Zuan smiled bitterly. He had joked many times with Lu Shu previously but only just discovered that he knew sorcery…
He would not be afraid if Lu Shu beat him up. However, what happened was strange. Why did someone from a few hundred miles away die after Lu Shu recited their name?
That was too terrifying!
However, everyone here was smart. They knew that the problem was with the gourd. Or else, why would Lu Shu take the gourd out for no apparent reason?
Moreover, Lu Shu had to say the full real name. That was because Lu Shu called the soldier’s full name seriously earlier on. However, when he called Zhong Yutang by the name ‘Zhong’, nothing happened…
Cheng Qiuqiao said cautiously, “Brother Shu, why don’t you call me Qiao’er?!”
Lu Shu did not know what to say. “Scram!”
At this moment, he took out the notebook which he used to record the names. After reading the whole list of names, some of them gave him 1000 distress points while some gave him very little.
Those who gave him 1000 points had died. Those who did not were still alive.
However, Lu Shu was not anxious. He decided to recite the names once in a while until everyone on the list gave him 1000 distress points.
Zhong Yutang and the rest were stunned. This scene was too astonis.h.i.+ng.
In the past, everyone thought that Heavenly King Nie was the top a.s.sa.s.sin in the Heavenly Network. Apart from the different types of traps, he used many strategies. However, Lu Shu’s killing method was way more terrifying. Everyone did not even know whether it was counted as a killing method.
In the future when this news spread, what would the Ninth Heavenly King be known as? For example, “You are dead if I know your name within 10,000 miles”…
However, Zhong Yutang and the rest were not the most astonished people. Instead, the intelligence officer from the Heavenly Network who had infiltrated the army was the most astonished. He was in the midst of drinking and chatting with the soldiers and upon sending the name list over, everyone beside him died.
What on earth, was someone using a voodoo doll…
At this moment, Zhong Yutang ran back to the office and took out another namelist. “These are the brats who had served the Darkness Kingdom in the past! Heavenly King Lu, please take a look…”
Zhong Yutang’s tone was extremely friendly. Then, Zhong Yutang looked at Lu Shu in antic.i.p.ation. Lu Shu’s face turned black. For the Heavenly Network, Zhong Yutang was willing to do anything. Within such a short period of time, he was already making use of Lu Shu’s new capability to accomplish things.
Zhong Yutang explained, “These people had interacted with the Heavenly Network before. Most of them had claimed that they wanted to hunt you down.”
“Hunt me down?” asked Lu Shu in disbelief.
“Erm, I mean they wanted to hunt the Heavenly Kings down. Aren’t you a Heavenly King? That means they wanted to hunt you down.” smiled Zhong Yutang faithfully.
“Haha” Without hesitation, Lu Shu started to read out the names. Most of them gave him 1000 distress points after their names were read. However, some of them did not give Lu Shu any distress points at all. That meant that they were not within the effective distance.
Lu Shu made Zhong Yutang calculate where these people would approximately be. Then, Lu Shu confirmed that the effective distance could span half of the world…
This was how terrifying a Master was. If he had not risen to the Master realm, the effective distance could only be within the country. Perhaps, he could not even reach the remote areas in the country.
Lu Shu explained, “I think we should keep this low profile.”
“Yes yes yes,” Zhong Yutang said in excitement, “This is a trump card! Heavenly King Lu, hold on for a moment, I suddenly recalled about a list of traitors of the Heavenly Network. Although there are only a few of them, some of them have yet to be caught.”
Lu Shu was stunned for a moment. There were traitors in the Heavenly Network too?
That was something that could not be helped. Which organization had no traitors? At this moment, Zhong Yutang invited Lu Shu to take a seat in the office and told him that his a.s.sistance would be needed in the future…
Lu Shu said that he could do it but if he had to read the names in the future, the details about that person had to be made known. Moreover, an official doc.u.ment of the Heavenly Network stating to arrest or kill that person had to be shown.
The capability of a Pract.i.tioner should not be exploited.
Zhong Yutang was stunned. He was embarra.s.sed, “You are right, I was too rash.”
“Also,” Lu Shu said, “All of them are overseas, so this is considered an overseas mission, right? Remember to transfer me the bonus…”
Zhong Yutang was silent.
“From Zhong Yutang’s distress, +666!”
Lu Shu looked at Zhong Yutang. “Don’t tell me you are not planning to give me my money? How much is the bonus? What about the bonus for my trips to Europe and Africa?”
“I am not feeling well, I will take my leave first.” Zhong Yutang turned and ran while facing Lu Shu. He looked extremely strange…
At this moment, a vehicle transporting weapons drove into the Longmen Fortress. Lu Shu turned around. He knew who was transported back… Li Dian!
Both of them met in the black market in Qingzhou. Lu Shu exchanged the head-twisting gourd with his magical stone. Afterwards, they quarreled and Lu Shu had even scared him by acting as a tree demon.
However, Lu Shu did not think of him until the head-twisting gourd returned!
Before this, Lu Shu thought that the gourd, bronze compa.s.s and the cloth with gold thread were pa.s.sed down from Li Dian’s family. After all, the Chinese civilization had a long history and it was normal for some things to be pa.s.sed down. Many of the items in the black market were old items from the ancestors.
However, after the head-twisting gourd returned, Lu Shu realized that it was not as simple as he thought.
When he last met Li Dian, he was only a Rank Five pract.i.tioner. The Heavenly Network did not give him much trouble as after all, he did not commit crimes like Liang Che. Therefore, he was arrested for two months before he was released and he ran errands in the black market.
However, after two months of decent behavior, he reverted back to his old self and began committing crimes…
The Heavenly Network gave him another chance to redeem himself. However, Li Dian proved that a leopard would never change its spots…
The first thing Li Dian said when he got down from the car was, “I have turned over a new leaf!”
However, when he saw Lu Shu, he was terrified. How could he not remember Lu Shu? When he served his jail sentence, he saw how terrifying Lu Shu was from the news.
Li Dian had wondered if his life would be different if he had not met Lu Shu…
