Chapter 810: Chen Zuan’s Intuition

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

If someone was too out of the ordinary, they would affect the people around them. For example, after Lu Shu became the backbone of the species research specialization, no matter whether it was Chen Zuan or Cheng Qiuqiao, their way of speaking unconsciously resembled that of Lu Shu’s. One is marked by the company one keeps.

Of course, there were exceptions. If there was someone from the Northeast in a bedroom, the entire bedroom would speak like him. It might not be because that person was outstanding. It was simply because the way of speaking in the Northeast was more impressive.

Chen Zuan was a man of action who would leave immediately without hesitation. But Cheng Qiuqiao was more frank. He even went to the Luo Shen Cultivation College to request for leave before going.

Chen Zuan was unhappy. “If you ask for leave, will they still let you go? Haven’t you seen all the students stuck in their cla.s.srooms?”

But Cheng Qiuqiao was still not rea.s.sured. What if they came back and found out that they had been expelled? How would he tell his parents?

Chen Zuan looked as if he expected better from from Cheng Qiuqiao. “Brother Shu has become a Heavenly King. What are you scared of?”

Chen Zuan suddenly had a sense of security… right. Lu Shu had become a Heavenly King. Could they get away under the name of a Heavenly King?

When everyone else found out that Lu Shu had become a Heavenly King, they were shocked. After all, it was very shocking for a Heavenly King to appear from among the student population. But Chen Zuan’s train of thought was very different. When he realized that Lu Shu was the mysterious Ninth Heavenly King, his first reaction was to suck up to him!

“You’re wrong,” Cheng Qiuqiao argued. “Back then, Brother Shu was still an audit student…”

When Chen Zuan heard this, he felt that something like this had happened…

“But as for requesting leave,” said Chen Zuan, “you can still be flexible!”

“How?” Cheng Qiuqiao was curious.

“You Mingyu has taken over school affairs, right?” Chen Zuan said.

“Yes.”

“Where is he now?” Chen Zuan asked.

“I heard that he went to the Changbai Mountains,” said Cheng Qiuqiao.

“Right. We’ll go the Changbai Mountains and ask You Mingyu for leave there,” said Chen Zuan cheerily.

Cheng Qiuqiao was amazed by Chen Zuan’s train of thought. How did he come up with that?

Thus, the two of them headed on the long path towards the Changbai Mountains to ask You Mingyu for leave.

When Chen Zuan sat on the plane and looked as the ground grew more and more distant, he could not help but think that Lu Shu had a very impressive aura. Even when Chen Zuan advanced to Cla.s.s B, people were not as surprised. He did not celebrate for long either, as he was always chasing after a goal called Lu Shu.

Lu Shu was too fast. Chen Zuan did not want to fall behind.

Chen Zuan was full of ideas. If not, he would not have wanted to go to the Salt Lake remains and gain military achievements.

He was also a very shrewd but timid person. He had always avoided danger in the remains. Chen Zuan always felt that he was a giant in terms of his thoughts, but a midget in terms of his actions. He had wanted to go to the Salt Lake remains, but when he actually got there, he was scared.

It was as if he had professed love for what he really feared. He did not want to be a flower in a greenhouse, but when he actually encountered danger, he instinctively became timid.

This was a very conflicting situation, which continued until he started to interact more with Lu Shu.

To be honest, the Changbai Mountains were now very dangerous. Chen Zuan knew very well that even if he was a Cla.s.s B, he might not be able to survive. But… Chen Zuan felt that Lu Shu would be very lonely if he fought alone without support.

He felt that he was the one who understood Lu Shu the best, besides Lu Xiaoyu. That young man was lonely but stubborn. He did not ask others for help so that he would not owe others anything. But Lu Shu was not born lonely.

Even if the path to the Changbai Mountains was dangerous, Chen Zuan still wanted to go.

There were times when he thought that the heroes described in stories or history books were too distant.

Chen Zuan felt like he was now experiencing history. Perhaps in the far future, he might appear in the history books with Lu Shu. How would the history books depict him?

Chen Zuan excitedly told Cheng Qiuqiao this. “If Brother Shu becomes even more amazing, he will definitely be recorded in the history of the realm of cultivation. We will definitely appear as the friends who accompanied him in battle. How would the history books depict us then?”

When Cheng Qiuqiao heard this, his eyes lit up. “They would say that you love to eat, that you are shameless, that you often retract your move in chess, that you snore in your sleep, and that your feet stink…”

Chen Zuan’s expression darkened. “My feet don’t stink.”

“Ha ha,” Cheng Qiuqiao laughed coldly. “You can be stubborn and defend yourself. I covered you with the blanket, but who secretly took off the blanket at night?”

Last week, Cheng Qiuqiao had said that Chen Zuan’s feet were stinky. Chen Zuan denied this and claimed that he could not smell anything. Cheng Qiuqiao thus secretly covered Chen Zuan with the blanket that he used to cover his feet. Chen Zuan could not bear the smell and woke up!

The plane landed in Sheng City, Jizhou. Chen Zuan and Cheng Qiuqiao had wanted to fly directly to the Changbai Mountains airport, but the flights there had been canceled because of the fight in the realm of cultivation. Thus, they had no choice but to rent a car and drive there.

It was easy for them to enter the restricted area. They were of a rather high rank, thus they could enter easily.

When they reached the campsite, Chen Zuan and Cheng Qiuqiao felt the atmosphere of a true war as they drove in. The place was either full of members from the Heavenly Network, or full of goods and materials.

Everyone in the campsite seemed to be in a rush. There was even a ma.s.sive army tent in the middle. People were constantly moving in and out. At the same time, they saw a small team who were preparing rations to enter the mountains.

On the way, they heard people talking about the war deep within the mountains. It seemed very severe.

At that moment, Chen Zuan suddenly heard someone say, “One of the teams is very aggressive. I heard that we have broken through the Ladder River and the Tiger Back. One of the teams went there and they said that all they saw were dead bodies. But no one knew who did it.”

“I heard that too. Our line of defense had been pushed back, but some team had forcibly opened up another route The strange thing is, when our troops returned, no one said that they had gone there. Strange.”

“Maybe our current situation is still good. They are probably still hunting down people deep in the mountains. They are really aggressive. Could it be the secret team formed by the Heavenly Network?”

“Perhaps. We have a lot of Cla.s.s B experts in the Heavenly Network.”

Chen Zuan overheard this. Suddenly, he turned to Cheng Qiuqiao and said, “I think Brother Shu might be on this line of defense!”
