Chapter 583: Trade Caravan

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Lu Shu bumped into Xi Fei on his way down. Xi Fei was visibly shocked. “Since when were you here? How did I not see you?”

“Ha ha.” Lu Shu tried to change the subject. After all, he had climbed through the window to reach the seventh floor. If Xi Fei saw him at the main gate, it was most likely a ghost. “I have received special permission to enter the Cultivation College. It looks like we won’t be colleagues for now. How regretful. Let’s work together in the future if we have the chance.”

“No regrets, no regrets.” Xi Fei laughed loudly.

Um...

Xi Fei realized that he had said something wrong. He quickly explained, “How can this be a regret? It’s great that you managed to get into Luo City Cultivation College. I am happy for you. How is that regretful?”

“Okay. Go do what you have to do.” Lu Shu patted Xi Fei’s shoulder and walked out.

As he passed by the gates of the Cultivation College, he saw Li Yixiao and Nalan Que holding hands as they walked in. Seeing them hold hands as they walked made Lu Shu cringe. Li Yixiao saw Lu Shu and smiled. “Lu Shu, you’re back! I was trying to find you on New Year’s Eve, but you weren’t at home. Where did you go?”

Lu Shu was happy. “Come, let’s go to your house to discuss some things.”

Li Yixiao’s expression suddenly changed. “Let’s talk here instead.”

“How could you?” Nalan Que was unhappy. “Let Xiaoshu go to your house for a chat.”

“I want to bask in the sun here,” Li Yixiao said resolutely.

Lu Shu smacked his lips and looked at the dark clouds overhead. “In a few months, the Cultivation College will welcome ten thousand students from the Daoyuan Class. Is it possible to invest in a hotel at the Liu village? Or if that is too expensive, can we build an inn or something else instead?”

Lu Shu had this on his mind for a very long time. The land that they had secured was no more than 700 meters away from the Luo Shen Cultivation College. They would definitely have steady earnings if they built an inn there.

After all, the Luo Shen Cultivation College was not completely closed off. The students also had to go out to fulfill their needs.

Li Yixiao suddenly said, “I had just wanted to talk to you about this. The Liu village manager has been thinking about doing so. The cement, sand, bricks and other construction materials have been transported over.”

“I see that you have thought carefully about this.” Lu Shu nodded his head. “This also counts as a business. Anyway, we are all from the Heavenly Network. It is easier to gain approval.”

Nalan Que said, “You are both greenhorns when it comes to things like this. Leave it to me. Let my family settle the budget. They can carry out the plan.”

Nalan Que did this not just for Li Yixiao’s sake. It was because when the Nalan family worked with Li Yixiao and Lu Shu, they did not make any big losses. Nalan Que gave the money Lu Shu returned her to her family. The Nalan family wanted to associate with Lu Shu. After all, there was no eternal hate, only eternal benefits. The Nalan family passed the judgment that Lu Shu would hold an important position in the Heavenly Network in the future. There was no harm in investing in friendly relations with him now.

As for Li Yixiao, forget about it. Nalan Que’s mother still felt that Li Yixiao’s and Nalan Que’s horoscopes clashed. Now that Nalan Que had grown up, she did not care about this. All her relatives could do was ignore Li Yixiao. But they did not seem quite happy about this...

Lu Shu returned home. He was happy to let the Nalan family settle this matter. It was best to leave this to the experts. Now, Lu Shu could be one step ahead of others in his training. But as for the construction of the inn, he did not know where to start.

That night, Nalan Que’s relatives in Luo City started work. Some earth element Metahuman had even finished digging the foundation for the inn...

The Nalan family had never talked about money with Lu Shu. It was as if Lei Feng 1 had reappeared. They did not hide the fact that they were trying to win Lu Shu over to their side.

At the same time, when Lu Shu was looking through the Golden Foundation forum, he realised that while China was celebrating the New Year, the activities overseas had not ceased. A relic had opened in South America, but the Heavenly Network did not get involved. On the contrary, Practitioners from all over the world started to make their move.

Lu Shu could not find any more information on the Golden Foundation forum. But he realized that the Heavenly Network phone that You Mingyu had given him at first was able to receive a lot of overseas information.

He even asked Li Yixiao whether he had received any of this information. Li Yixiao’s answer was negative, he did not receive anything.

Lu Shu realized that Nie Ting did so to maintain his attention towards overseas affairs. This meant that Nie Ting had not given up on his intention to make Lu Shu go overseas. Li Yixiao, a Heavenly King, did not receive anything. There would be a problem if he did.

The information revealed that the Heavenly Network did not participate in the opening of the relic in South America as the Heavenly Network had not infiltrated South America. An organization had its limits. It could only pay attention to more important areas, for example Japan, North America, Europe, and Southeast Asia. They would concentrate their resources and manpower into these areas. As for less important areas like South America and Australia, they could only leave it aside for now.

The next day, Lu Shu received a call from You Mingyu to retrieve something from the black market. You Mingyu said that it was from the Capital.

Lu Shu hung up the phone and pondered about it. It was as if he had found a way to get closer to the core of the Heavenly Network. Nie Ting no longer forced him out. On the other hand, he was gently and mildly allowing him to access information about the core of the organization. This allowed him to slowly approach the core of the Heavenly Network.

Lu Shu was open to persuasion, but not to coercion. If Nie Ting forced him to go overseas, Lu Shu would definitely not agree. But if Nie Ting used a gentler approach, giving him information, goods and even special admittance into the Cultivation College, Lu Shu felt somewhat bad...

Could the conflict between him and Nie Ting be brought to a temporary close? Lu Shu felt that this was not bad. A harmonious society where harmony is prized was good.

Lu Shu came to the black market and saw You Mingyu in his office, talking to some of the leaders of the secret practitioner groups. He eavesdropped on their conservation. You Mingyu said, “When our men come, go out with your backpackers. Remember, listen to all the commands. If there is someone dangerous, inform us. If people rob you, we will bring you to rob them. But if this leaks out, I will not admit it. Also, if others do not make a move, don’t make a move and create trouble. Do you understand?”

The secret practitioners smiled and nodded. The biggest problem with these backpackers buying magical stones overseas was their safety. The places they were going to did not have peace and prosperity. There were many people who would kill for a magical stone. Everyone knew that the Heavenly Network had accepted the black market. This was a tacit understanding.

Lu Shu was dumbfounded. The officials protected those who were going overseas to seize training materials. Looking at these secret practitioners, they were in the early stages of forming a trade caravan.
