Chapter 74: I am not a shallow person!
Lu Xiaoyu still did not fully trust Lu Shu because she felt that she was always spouting nonsense. How could his talent be better than his talent?
But Lu Shu did not stop there and continued to brag, "The first and second stars can be illuminated with only one heavenly fruit. I can have the effect of 4 pieces in just one training night, can you do it?"
In reality, Lu Shu had only reached this training speed after he had completed the first nebula but this was something Lu Xiaoyu did not know. The little girl looked down in silence as she calculated her own training speed – she could only achieve an effect worth 2 pieces in one night!
He didn't speak anymore because he felt he was wrong.
"From Lu Xiaoyu's distress, +199!"
After seeing Lu Xiaoyu in that state, Lu Shu felt somewhat sorry for him and cleared his throat, "Keke, after finishing your first nebula, you can also reach the same training speed as me."
"Very?" when his eyes sparkle.
Whether his abilities could become stronger or not was a second priority. If his progress speed was too slow, wouldn't the distance between him and Lu Shu increase?
One would always say that if the status of the parties involved were not at the same level, the distance between them would slowly increase until they disappeared from each other's world. Lu Xiaoyu constantly thought that he should follow Lu Shu's training speed to close the distance between them.
This way, Lu Shu would not suddenly disappear from his life one day.
Wherever Lu Shu went, he would also go!
Lu Shu continued with the usual training procedures that night. By that time, he had reached a point where he only needed two more heavens to illuminate the first star in his second nebula.
Lu Shu was looking forward to knowing what changes could illuminate the stars in the second nebula.
The first nebula gave him strength comparable to class E. So, what can a second nebula offer?
Since he had reached the stage where only two heavenly fruits were needed, he was able to achieve that progress in just half a night of training and he did not even need to consume those fruits.
The night was dark and it was 1 am. Lu Shu opened his eyes in his quiet room as soon as he lit the first star in the second nebula. He now understood in his heart, about what strength this nebula offered.
Suddenly, Lu Shu had engulfed himself in a thin layer of celestials according to his intentions. The silver-white light smoothly circled around him until he could not clearly see his own face in the mirror.
Heavenly light ... could finally leave his body.
Although they were very active and could move according to his wishes in the past, this heavenly light would never be able to leave his body.
Up until now, they had surrounded Lu Shu as if they were layers of protective clothing.
Lu Shu thought that if he met Liang Che again with this layer of clothing, even if the latter had to go all-out and burn him, maybe he could come out unscathed.
This thought was indeed true because the protection that the light gave him was very precious. If class D, element-type metahumans had to fight against it, they might be able to be harmed.
However, the power of this heavenly light would only increase according to the growth of Lu Shu's own power.
So, the second nebula provides a protective power.
Having brute strength could indeed protect him from physical attacks but it definitely could not protect him from those elemental-type attacks. If someone makes you burn or electrocute you, can you block this attack with just your body? No matter how hard your skin is, it's impossible to protect electricity .. And now, Lu Shu's life has even more insurance.
No, not only that, Lu Shu felt that his strength had also increased!
There was no way this celestial map would continue to increase its strength, right?
At this point, according to Lu Shu's calculations, as he went further into his training, his strength would follow as well.
The heavenly map was exactly as described in the legends. As the power of the stars increased, the longer he could use the Corpse Dog and the stronger the protection they gave him.
Some say that even if one's magic power becomes extraordinary, it is, he would still be at a disadvantage if someone launched a sneak attack on him if he did not possess strong physical strength.
If one were to assume that Lu Shu was a weak ranged warrior just because he held his flying dagger in the future, it would seem that person would be at a great loss … and who knows there are danger points to be gained from it?
When Lu Shu was watching the news while she was eating breakfast the next day, it was broadcast that the first district head was visiting another country. It was at this point that Lu Shu saw Nie Ting standing still beside the head of the head!
In the news, Nie Ting looked extremely calm and he was not wearing his black suit but was wearing an all-black western suit. Although he looked ordinary when he stood to the side, it felt as if he commanded a lot of deterrent power.
This could be a pre-recorded clip and only broadcast now and thus, it does not mean that this Heavenly King is already out in another country.
He is an important figure.
Lu Shu suddenly felt that he had to learn some swordplay techniques from Li Xianyi as he seemed to be on friendly terms with the Heavenly Kings. If they were not around to surround him, everything would be fine.
Being a high school student, Lu Shu did not understand much and could not uncover what was really happening from the situation. Thus, he could only rely on his own judgment to carry out his plan.
And Lu Shu's judgment was that it would be fine if he learned the sword-playing technique from Li Xianyi.
Those techniques had to be learned, but the problem was how he could even solve the question to Li Xianyi. The ideal situation was for Li Xianyi to be the first to extend this offer. . .
Lu Shu's calculation skills were quite accurate and after all, no one knew exactly everything about him, not Zhi Wei, not Li Xianyi, not his classmates or even the Heavenly Network.
He could play dumb and wait for Li Xianyi to begin the offer once again, perhaps they could even discuss the terms of his discipleship.
Is not the relationship between human beings like that, that whoever extends their offer first is the weaker one. By the way, Lu Shu felt that he should not go out of his way to become his disciple.
That night, Lu Shu still had about 7000 distress points and he used them to draw 50 portions of rotten tofu for tomorrow's sale.
He couldn't get more even if he wanted to because his box couldn't hold many of them. If he bought the cart again because of this, it would not be worth it and Lu Shu was satisfied with selling only 50 servings a day.
After eating, Lu Shu and Lu Xiaoyu tried to encourage the task of washing each other. Usually they would split the workload where Lu Shu would wash the dishes on Monday. Wednesday, Friday and Sunday while Lu Xiaoyu will do it on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. Both hate washing dishes and they even make schedules for families to delegate the task of washing dishes. Lu Shu pointed at the schedule, indicating that it was his turn to wash the dishes since Tuesday.
He firmly told Lu Xiaoyu, "Can you see this, it's Tuesday. Your name is written here!"
Lu Xiaoyu rebelled, saying that if she could skip her duty, she did not mind changing her name.
"???"
How could such a thing happen?
Lu Shu took a big breath and walked back home. While holding a bag of potato chips, "Wash the dishes and this will be yours!"
Lu Xiaoyu's eyes were fixated on him, "Alright, I'll do it! I'm the most diligent!"
"It's because of the potato chips that you're willing to do it right?" when Lu Shu teased him.
"That's not enough, I'm not a superficial person," as Lu Xiaoyu denied the accusation.
"Okay, then we'll start over. Without chips, would you do the dishes?"
"No."
"Then with the chips, are you going to wash the dishes?"
"Yes!"
"Hehe!"
