Spare Me, Great Lord!

Chapter 1033: Tricksters, All Tricksters!

Lu Shu realized that the disciples of the Sword Hut slacked off as well. Take Tang Linshan for example. He only spent eight hours a day refining his snowy mountain.

Tang Linshan said, “The Sword Hut advocates a balance between work and play. Not only do we have to train our swordplay, we also have to take time out to read books and increase our experiences.”

Lu Shu said with bitter hatred, “If you don’t work hard when you are young and strong, you will suffer when you are old. You have to be daring when you are young. This way, you will be able to live with ease when you are old. Do you understand?”

Tang Linshan was dumbfounded when he heard this. “Brother Lu Shu, what do you mean?”

“16 hours,” said Lu Shu calmly.

To Lu Shu, Tang Linshan could take it slow, but Lu Shu could not wait. Something was brewing within the palace. He had to leave this place as soon as possible.

Although he had conveniently earned money, he had not earned enough. How could he leave without the magical armor?

Yesterday, Lu Shu even told Lu Xiaoyu to urge Sun Zhongyang to quickly prepare the magical armor. Not only that, he could not hope that the entire Sun family would help him.

The situation with the Song Ji was slightly awkward because of the first placing, but later on, Lu Shu still let the Song Ji earn big money. They were in a peaceful period of cooperation. Thus, Lu Shu’s demands towards the Song Ji were not extreme.

The boss of the Song Ji, Xiao Mingze, wanted to work with Lu Shu very badly. Ever since Lu Shu and the Wei Wu Army had appeared, he had earned enough profits to offset his losses over the past decade… if not, the gamblers in the palace would not jump into the Long Yin River either, right?

Thus, he now had two sources of magical armor, the Sun family and the Song family. Lu Shu estimated that he would be able to bring home almost 20 thousand sets of magical armor. It would be enough for the Flood of Bronze.

Recently, Lu Shu had even received feedback from Lu Xiaoyu. Recently, the Sun and Song families had many methods to obtain magical armor according to Lu Shu’s request. It was said that some armies with magical armor had started to sell their armor.

It was not that this army was foolish. Although there were battles at the borders, the problem was, most people did not feel that a full-scale war would break out.

It had been peaceful for too long. The valiant people of the Luniverse had grown indifferent.

At first, Lu Shu collected magical armor while supervising Tang Linshan. Later on, when his snowy mountain was about to collapse, Tang Linshan was in high spirits. He was at a stage when he did not even stop to rest.

On the other hand, Yu Fuyao would take an afternoon nap at where Lu Shu was. Even when Lu Shu was not around, she would still be there.

Lu Shu felt that this female Lord of Heaven was extremely strange. What habit was this? You had many people to take care of, right? Why did you come here everyday?

Lu Shu was not free during this period of time either. He was always reading the books from the library. He even polished his own snowy mountain. A new sword spirit was about to appear.

But he could not be completely free of distractions like Tang Linshan. After all, Lu Shu had too many things to do at the same time.

During this period of time, Lu Shu found the memorial of another Lord of Heaven. The South Lord of Heaven, Qing Kong.

Then, Lu Shu discovered that Qing Kong’s memorial was very unique. He was concerned about the prices of vegetables and grains. He was also concerned about the training of his troops.

There were many people in the Sword Hut who were from the South Region. One reason was because the South Lord of Heaven, Qing Kong, had never slacked off in caring for government affairs. It was as if he did not have to train.

This Lord of Heaven was quite grounded!

When Lu Shu had read half of the books in the library, there was suddenly a cheer from Tang Linshan’s hut… that suddenly turned into a wail!

Lu Shu was dumbfounded. He hurriedly ran over and opened the door. “What’s wrong, Brother Linshan?”

The moment Lu Shu opened the door, a white shadow jumped towards Lu Shu’s face.

Unlike Tang Linshan, who was unprepared, Lu Shu was mentally prepared. Thus, the moment the small, white sword spirit came in front of him, Lu Shu raised his hand and slapped the sword spirit away…

But… Lu Shu realized something strange. Why did Tang Linshan’s sword spirit… also slap people?!

Under normal circumstances, the speed and strength of a Rank One sword spirit would be that of a low Rank One. They only had one way of attacking, and it was hard to avoid. However, their defense was poor. The sword spirit had been fended off with just a slap.

But the sword spirit would not die. It was like the aurablades and sword prototypes. Its soul was in the Sea of Chi and snowy mountain. Even if the sword spirit outside had disappeared, there would be a sword spirit inside that was able to form, like the invisible aurablade.

Thus, Tang Linshan felt that the existence of a sword spirit would bring an opportunity for a revolution to the Sword Hut. Once the disciples mastered this skill, it would be as if they had the strength of another Rank One. Would they be stronger than before? Definitely.

But Tang Linshan did not expect this. Lu Shu had promised that his sword spirit would definitely be very normal and would be able to help him manipulate swords. But he had been tricked?

Although having a sword spirit was a good thing, Tang Linshan could not accept this shock. He looked at Lu Shu. “Brother Lu Shu, how would you explain this?”

Lu Shu was utterly dumbfounded.

He recalled back then, when he had asked the old man about the sword spirit. What did the old man say?

Li Xianyi calmly said that the sword spirit would be able to manipulate swords.

Lu Shu suddenly felt that the old man might have lied to him!

Lu Shu knew that Li Xianyi was someone who cared about his image. Thus, when he realized that the sword spirit had the strange ability of slapping others, what would his reaction be?

It would be to conceal this fact!

He had cheated Lu Shu into opening the Sea of Chi and snowy mountain!

Manipulating swords… as if! Lu Shu was now very sure that Li Xianyi’s sword spirit slapped people as well!

Tricksters! All tricksters!

Lu Shu straightened out his train of thought. Then, he said to Tang Linshan, “Brother Linshan, it’s like this. You have a sword spirit now, right?”

Tang Linshan nodded his head in grief. “Yes!”

“Is it a great help to you? Let me ask you. Is it fast enough? Is it strong enough?”

Tang Linshan thought about it. It would be hypocritical to say that a Rank One was not strong enough. Thus, he nodded his head in grief. “Yes.”

“From Tang Linshan’s distress, +666!”

Lu Shu sighed. “Although the result is different than expected, but the process was beautiful, right? Imagine this. If the Sword Hut attacks with 1000 people, we will not just have 1000 people. We will have 2000 people. Won’t we be very strong?”

Tang Linshan thought about it. He could accept this result. He had obtained the help of a Rank One for no apparent reason. They would have an advantage on the battlefield!

Lu Shu looked as Tang Linshan calmed down. Then, he asked, “Do you want to help me spread this method to the other brothers?”

At that moment, Tang Linshan was sure that this method definitely had something to do with money.
