Spare Me, Great Lord!

The girls looked at each other helplessly. Someone agreed and all of them stood up to walk to the defensive wall.

A group of girls sat in a row on the defensive wall. Lu Xiaoyu laughed. “All of you, go take a rest. I’m fine.”

Someone laughed. “We can’t let you sit here alone. It’s as if we’re not good enough. Xiaoyu, how are you so strong? I can’t stand it.”

Lu Xiaoyu smiled, but she did not say anything.

Everyone was used to Lu Xiaoyu’s behavior. When the neighboring Battalion approached Lu Xiaoyu to talk about an alliance, Lu Xiaoyu would not answer. She was not a very sociable person from the start. She had no interest in talking to so many strangers.

The girls often said that Lu Xiaoyu was cold on the outside, but warm on the inside. This was because Lu Xiaoyu had often helped them after getting to know them better.

But no matter how close you were to Lu Xiaoyu, if she did not feel like talking to anyone, it was best to not force her to talk.

Slight autism. This was an angle that Lu Xiaoyu and Lu Shu had never considered before, but it seemed like this was the reality.

Lu Xiaoyu and Lu Shu had depended on each other for survival all this time. Thus, their hearts were open only to each other. This was why Lu Shu had never thought that Lu Xiaoyu might have slight autism. Lu Xiaoyu did not care either.

In front of Lu Shu, Lu Xiaoyu was normal.

Suddenly, someone asked, “Xiaoyu, I’m just curious. What do you plan to do with all those tridents?”

“Lu Shu will definitely like them.” Lu Xiaoyu’s eyes became like crescent moons. “He is very greedy. He will definitely be happy with all these weapons.”

Lu Xiaoyu did not show off too much of her strength this time round. Anthony hid within the stones and soil on the island to ensure its safety, while she had kept Johnson in the black hole.

As for the invisible storage equipment, she did not intend to let everyone know of its presence, as Lu Shu had told her before not to do so.

“Lu Shu, Lu Shu. All you talk about all day is Lu Shu,” someone mocked her. “Why isn’t he here yet?”

Lu Xiaoyu’s expression darkened. “I don’t know. He has more important things to do.”

At that moment, they heard a shout behind them. “Xiaoyu!”

Lu Xiaoyu turned around and saw the young man smiling at her under the stars.

Lu Xiaoyu, who everyone had praised for her strength, suddenly cried out, “Took you long enough! What have you been doing all this time? I was so scared that I wouldn’t be able to escape this crazy place! When I first came here, I was accidentally injured by a soldier of the sea. My wound only healed yesterday. It was so painful! My snacks have run out. Have you brought any?”

Her tears flowed down her face like a waterfall. The girls beside her were dumbfounded. What was happening? How did the strong Lu Xiaoyu suddenly become like this…

Was this young man… Lu Shu?

The girls looked at one another in confusion. They did not know who Lu Shu was, but they were growing tired of Lu Xiaoyu’s stories about him.

They felt that in Lu Xiaoyu’s world, Lu Shu was invincible. There was nothing he could not do.

Now, they had finally seen Lu Shu. Hm, his looks were not bad, but he did not seem as amazing as they had thought.

They saw Lu Shu smiling innocently as if there was nothing in the world that could harm him. He seemed… very easy to bully?!

Lu Shu hurriedly wiped Lu Xiaoyu’s tears. He had the impression that Lu Xiaoyu rarely cried. There was one time in the orphanage, where Lu Xiaoyu had taken care of him while he had a fever. As she cried, she helped Lu Shu boil water and bring a warm cloth to wipe his face. There was another time where he had almost been intertwined with the water element. And there was this.

The previous two times, Lu Xiaoyu had cried for him. This time, it was because she felt wronged. She did not want to bear any responsibility, yet she had to protect the lives of so many people. She did not dare to boast to Coral about becoming a Heavenly King…

When the girls beside Lu Xiaoyu saw her cry, they realized something. Lu Xiaoyu was not as strong as they had thought. She just did not let others see her weakness easily.

Lu Xiaoyu could only lower her guard in front of Lu Shu.

Lu Shu retrieved a mountain of snacks from the Seal of Lands and put it in front of Lu Xiaoyu. Lu Xiaoyu sat cross-legged and opened a few packs to eat. “What about chocolate, did you bring any?”

“Yes, of course.” Lu Shu took out a few boxes of chocolate…

Food was banned on the island. The girls enviously looked at Lu Xiaoyu eat. Lu Xiaoyu thought about and pushed half the food to them. “You guys eat too.”

The girls were overjoyed. They did not hold back and took a large heap of snacks. Their liking for her went off the charts!

Although they were shocked that Lu Shu seemed to have invisible storage equipment, but now, what was more important than eating.

This made Lu Shu’s jaw drop. Wasn’t this the same Lu Xiaoyu who gave him half a french fry?

Lu Xiaoyu glanced at Lu Shu. “I want to be a Heavenly King. This is the least I should do.”

“Lu Xiaoyu, you are wise.” Lu Shu laughed. He had forgotten about the existence of the Heavenly Kings, but Lu Xiaoyu still remembered. He did not expect Lu Xiaoyu to remember about the position of the Heavenly King.

When Lu Xiaoyu first wanted to become a Heavenly King, Lu Shu thought that she had watched too much Naruto. After all, Uzumaki Naruto ¹ wanted to become the Hokage ² …

Suddenly, three tridents emerged from the sea and were aimed at Lu Xiaoyu. It was as if the soldiers of the sea had paid attention to Lu Xiaoyu and attacked her while she let her guard down. They tried to get rid of her!

Seeing this, the girls shouted in despair, “Be careful!”

The moment they spoke, they saw Lu Shu leap forward and catch the three tridents. The next moment, Lu Shu hurled the tridents one by one back into the ocean. Soon after, dust floated to the surface of the water and drifted away.

The tridents had killed the three soldiers of the sea underwater!

The Lu Shu then was not an innocent young man, who thought that nothing in the world could harm him. He was an expert who had the qualifications to become a Heavenly King!

The group of girls looked at him in admiration. “This is… amazing!”

As they spoke, they suddenly saw the sea bubble forth. They thought that the soldiers of the sea had come back to launch their counterattack. Instead, they saw the tridents return to Lu Shu’s hands.

“Water-type abilities!”
