Chapter 1231: Finding the Relic

Lu Shu did not involve himself much with what had happened in the past. There were some things that he could simply find the answer for. Now, under the circ.u.mstances that he did not have any clues, there was no need for him to think hard about it.

He went back to the remains in the mask. The Blood Devils there had been taken away by Cloud Yi and Tiger Zhi. Thus, it was empty. It did not seem to be of any value. There was no one for him to even talk to.

Lu Shu carried the vast gargoyles and walked around for a long time. After he was content, he left the remains…

The Heavenly Network had a few relics. Lu Shu planned to search them one by one, as he was able to obtain information from them.

First was the relic from the Salt Lake remains that was in Chen Baili’s hands. Back then, Lu Shu had given Chen Baili a refresher fruit in the remains, causing Chen Baili to advance to Rank One.

Then, Chen Baili flew to the core of the remains and obtained the relic. Lu Shu did not even know what he had obtained or how he had obtained it.

When Lu Shu found Chen Baili, Chen Baili was watering the flowers. His lifespan was very long. He was not like in the past, when he constantly worried about his destroyed foundation. He also knew that it would take a long time to advance to the master realm. Thus, he calmed down. He started to take care of flowers and birds.

“Rare for the Ninth Heavenly King to come and find me.” Chen Baili smiled. “Is something the matter?”

“You have a lot of free time.” Lu Shu laughed cheerily.

“Time pa.s.ses very quickly. One year ago, you were still a weak Pract.i.tioner.” Chen Baili put down whatever he was doing and sighed with emotion. “In a flash, you have become a master who is well-known everywhere.”

“I was lucky.” Lu Shu smiled.

“Only successful people have the right to attribute their success to luck. You were a young man without anything. Yet, you were able to reach this level. The sons of the Chen family are still living a life of luxury and dissipation.” Chen Baili said, “The Chen family is definitely going to die out with the times.”

“You are also from the Chen family. As long as you and Zuan are around, nothing will happen to the Chen family.” Lu Shu thought about it and said, “I heard about what the Chen family is up to from Chen Zuan. I’m puzzled. Weren’t you still maintaining the Chen family one year ago?”

When they escaped from the Lop Nur remains, Chen Baili had helped Lu Shu to conceal the Armor that Shook Mountains. He had done so to obtain resources from Lu Shu. Back then, Chen Baili was still maintaining the Chen family. In less than one year, Chen Baili’s att.i.tude had completely changed.

“Last year, one of Chen Zuan’s cousins went to a feast just because of a few achievements. When he was at a bar, he killed a person to prove that he was a Pract.i.tioner.” Chen Baili said, “I was most disappointed in the att.i.tude of the Chen family. They helped this person escape overseas.”

Lu Shu furrowed his eyebrows. He disliked this person. But he could not understand. “Are you planning to leave the Chen family and allow the Chen family to decline?”

“The Chen family will not decline.” Chen Baili smiled.

“How so?” Lu Shu asked curiously.

“As long as Chen Zuan patiently trains his temperament with you, he will be the new Chen family,” said Chen Baili.

Lu Shu was dumbstruck. So Chen Baili had been planning to make Chen Zuan independent from the Chen family and become a new super, wealthy family. Furthermore, he would be part of a wealthy family in the cultivation realm!

Thus, Chen Baili had not given up on the Chen family. He had given up on a few people in the Chen family. It was as if he was breaking a bone in order to heal a wound. Without destruction, there can be no construction.

In the magically rich era, the new order would replace the old era. Chen Baili’s advancement to Rank One was probably the factor that caused Chen Baili to change his att.i.tude.

The fact that Chen Zuan had advanced to Rank One meant that Chen Zuan had the qualifications to become independent. Furthermore, Chen Baili hoped that Chen Zuan would be able to spread his influence and establish a new wealthy family.

Lu Shu said, “But your plan might not work out well.”

Chen Baili was curious. “How so?”

Lu Shu paused for two seconds. Then, he said, “Chen Zuan can’t even find a girlfriend…”

“Chen Baili’s distress value, +666!”

Chen Baili took a deep breath and said, “That makes sense…”

There was nothing wrong with wanting to spread his influence and establish a new wealthy family in the cultivation realm. But first, Chen Zuan needed a girlfriend…

With how much trouble Chen Zuan faced in love, Chen Baili’s plan to spread their influence would be difficult…

Chen Baili started to think about this. He went into deep thought…

“That’s right. Why are you here?” Chen Baili changed the topic.

“I want to see what you obtained from the Salt Lake relics.” Lu Shu said, “The relic from the Lop Nur remains is the Dragon Stage that belongs to the small white fish. But that is not important. I don’t know what the relic from the Salt Lake relic is. Furthermore, I don’t know what the creature that is protecting the relic is.”

“Small white fish?” Chen Baili was puzzled.

“Oh.” Lu Shu laughed awkwardly. “You have never seen that small white fish. Let’s talk about the Salt Lake remains.”

The Lop Nur remains were no longer a secret. After all, the small white fish had been eaten up by Chaos. He could not find any new clues. Thus, Lu Shu was more concerned about what had happened in the Salt Lake remains.”

“The Salt Lake remains.” Chen Baili furrowed his eyebrows and thought about it. “Back then, I had just advanced to Rank One. When I was heading towards the core of the remains, I did not encounter any obstacles and obtained the relic. I remembered my doubt back then. Why was no one guarding it? Later on, I understood. But the magical trees are the strongest creature protecting the remains. But I’m not sure what the function of the relic is. I have been using it as an invisible storage equipment.”

As Chen Baili spoke, he took out a metal ball with lotus patterns from his sleeve. Lu Shu was shocked. When he looked at the ball, Ouyang Lishang’s name was engraved on it.

This was the lotus core that Ouyang Lishang had created for the head of the Sword Hut! Every piece possessed the power of the sword. A special technique was needed to activate it!

Liu Yizhao had one piece. The other two pieces were missing.

Lu Shu did not expect the old King of G.o.ds to use this as the relic in the remains, but Chen Baili did not know how to use it!

Was this item left for him?

There were no other secrets behind the Salt Lake remains. What was left was… Lu Shu suddenly remembered that there was another relic he could examine. Furthermore, this relic was extremely famous.

It was the first remains that had opened in China. It was in the northwest. Nie Ting had obtained the relic after leading a team into the remains. It was Xin Ting!

Nie Ting was called the duke of Xin Ting because of this sword.

But Lu Shu furrowed his eyebrows. The Xin Ting was not on Earth. It had been brought to the Luniverse by Cao Qingci when the s.p.a.ce pathway opened!
