Chapter 1295: Palace of the King of Gods
When Lu Shu touched the heads of the King’s Studies scholars, they suddenly disappeared. It was as if these King’s Studies scholars had never appeared in the world.
Rationally, it was easy for Lu Shu to make these masters disappear. But Lu Shu did not do so. Why?
Everyone knew that a massive war was about to break out in the Luniverse. Who could say for sure how many people would die? All the wealthy families from the palace would become cannon fodder, right?
Furthermore, they received the news that after Sun Xunwen had obtained the West Region, he did not rush to bring in the officials in the West Region. Instead, he collected all their manpower and rations in the West Region. He would advance towards the palace in a few days.
This information shocked the other masters. From this, they could see that Sun Xunwen was determined on sticking with Lu Shu!
Even though he had just obtained the West Region, he did not enjoy his authority. Instead, he immediately assembled his troops and prepared for war at the palace!
It was as if he was tying himself to Lu Shu’s chariot. The masters of the wealthy families wanted to hide, but Sun Xunwen was afraid that he would fall behind. Their attitudes were very different.
Needless to say, Sun Xunwen already had this attitude. Even if the army from the West Region was not used, as long as Lu Shu won this war, Sun Xunwen’s position as West Lord of Heaven would be stable.
This was the mindset of a person in power. Staying out of the situation meant that they handed over their authority to other people.
When the masters of the wealthy families thought about this, they felt that this was the reason why Sun Xunwen was able to become the West Lord of Heaven.
What could they do? They could only be thrown around by the current. They could even imagine that even if they were not willing to participate, when the army from the West Region arrived, they would be strictly controlled.
But what could they do? They could not retreat!
They did not even know how Lu Shu had accurately tracked their movements. They did not know that an unassuming spy like Xiao Mingze had played a big role in this.
Who was Xiao Mingze to them? He was simply the boss of a gambling den. He was like an ant to them.
But no one would have expected Xiao Mingze to play such a significant role behind the scenes, to the point that he was able to counter the wealthy families!
There was only one boss of a gambling den who was this brave in the palace. Furthermore, he had encountered Lu Shu. How did this make sense?
But there was a certainty in what seemed to be a coincidence. If Xiao Mingze was not an ambitious and confident person, he would be like the other bosses and simply fulfill his responsibilities. He would not dare to use his private resources to help Lu Shu.
Now, the masters of the wealthy families felt an unparalleled sense of fear. It was as if everything was in Lu Shu’s hands. They did not dare to act rashly.
Many people felt that when they faced danger, they would definitely not give in. But when the time came, they completely forgot what they had said. All they could think about was surviving.
The Imperial Dragon Soldiers followed Lu Shu. Strangely, while the Imperial Palace Soldiers all had Blazing Cloud Foals, Lu Shu walked in front. This was not impressive.
Lu Shu thought about it and took out a Blazing Cloud Foals from the celestial map. But before he could ride it, the Blazing Cloud Foal dodged and spoke. “Don’t touch me!”
Lu Shu said, “Oh, so it’s you...”
With that, Lu Shu shoved Lu Kongming back into the celestial map. He finally remembered that there was a Blazing Cloud Foal whose body had been stolen...
Zhang Weiyu and the rest were obedient. When they saw this awkward situation, they immediately got down from their horses and walked with Lu Shu. This way, no one in the vast palace dared to look at them.
The civilians and aristocrats could only hear the heavy footsteps of the horses. They realized that the Imperial Dragon Soldiers were heading towards the palace of the King of Gods.
Some people could not help but wonder. There was a rumor in the palace that the palace of the King of Gods had been empty for many years. But the imperial edict caused everyone to be unsure of the truth.
Now, Lu Shu and the others were heading towards the palace of the King of Gods. Everyone predicted that a great war would break out. Or would they prove that there was actually no one in the palace of the King of Gods?
Li Heitan and the others, who were behind Zhang Weiyu and the rest, carried stacks of books. Every time they saw a house, they threw a book near the door.
The civilians heard the sound of books hitting the ground. After the Imperial Dragon Soldiers walked past, they could not help but open their doors and take the book. They quietly observed the book. Their expressions were the same as the King’s Studies scholars...
Why did they give out these books on such an important occasion?
But there was no time to think about this now. They were shocked by the contents of the book...
The educated image of the old King of Gods that they had believed in for so many years immediately started to crumble...
When Lu Shu felt a surge of distress points, he finally heaved a sigh of relief. It was difficult to earn the remaining distress points!
The Imperial Dragon Soldiers seemed to be patrolling their territory. They walked from the Peach Blossom Association to the palace of the King of Gods. They were splendid.
The previous time, they hurriedly came and hurriedly left. It was as if they were in a difficult situation.
But this time, Lu Shu longed for someone to suddenly appear and try to kill him. This way, he might be able to find more clues.
It was a pity that no one even dared to breathe until they reached the palace of the King of Gods.
Lu Shu stood outside the palace of the King of Gods and silently laughed. Then, he pushed open the doors of the palace. The massive gate had not been opened for a very long time. When Lu Shu opened the door, the creaking sound produced by the door could be heard from kilometers away.
Those who had been waiting for this moment felt as if their hearts had been held by someone. Then, their hearts were released.
The doors of the palace of the King of Gods had finally been opened. There were times when people walked past the palace. The handle of the red door had even started to rust, but there was no movement inside. The massive palace of the King of Gods was like a giant isolated island. No one dared to get close, but no one knew what happened inside either.
Lu Shu walked in. Some civilians could not help but walk out of their homes. They realized that the Imperial Dragon Soldiers did not kill the innocent. Thus, they slowly got closer, wanting to take a closer look.
Some people would feel that they were far too daring after the situation was over. But at this moment, it was as if curiosity triumphed above all.
They looked into the distance and saw the young man standing in front of the Imperial Dragon Soldiers, like stars surrounding the moon. The young man looked at the empty palace of the King of Gods. The open door was like a void of determination.
To the civilians in the palace, the young man standing in front of the palace of the King of Gods suddenly seemed familiar. It was as if he had finally returned. This place had not changed at all.
Lu Shu walked inside. His steps were steady. He stood tall and straight.
When Zhang Weiyu and the others saw this, they had complex feelings. Back then, when they were at King Lu Mountain, they would never have expected that they would one day follow this young man to rule the world
