Spare Me, Great Lord!

Chapter 1329: Good Spring Days, But Dreams Are Better

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The experts were very quick. Just one flaw could cost them their lives.

Two masters hid beside Yu Fuyao and tried to ambush Lu Shu, but they did not expect Lu Shu to have something up his own sleeve. Furthermore, they did not expect it to be so explosive.

They could not avoid the flash of the sword. The two masters swore that they had never seen such a brilliant flash! It was shockingly beautiful!

When the second master tried to ambush Nie Ting, he realized that Nie Ting had not used up his trump card.

If Nie Ting was present, Shi Xuejin would definitely be present as well. Everyone on Earth knew this. Sadly, this master was not from Earth.

The black flash of the sword seemed to have come from the depths of hell. It seemed to be able to take away everything he was reluctant to part with!

Lu Shu looked at Yu Fuyao, “If you want to take the celestial map, come. Once I’ve killed you, I’ll see how that weak clown kills me.”

The lamps on the stage started to die out. The props were also moved away. Lu Xiaoyu had never allowed the evil intention of God Lu to be the main character on stage. Just like the pig that Lu Xiaoyu had captured, it would break with one attack.

The masters had all appeared. It was time to take the curtain call.

As Lu Shu spoke, he swung the flaming Seizing Thief. Yu Fuyao’s purple scarf charged towards Seizing Thief. It was as if the scarf was not afraid of fire. It wrapped itself tightly around Seizing Thief!

The two of them flew to the north. Ka! Lu Shu heard a snapping sound from Seizing Thief. The purple scarf had broken Seizing Thief!

No matter whether it was Concealed Arrow, Corpsedog, or Seizing Thief, this was the first time Lu Shu had seen a weapon from the celestial map break!

If he allowed Yu Fuyao to wrap him with the purple scarf, he would not be able to last much longer than Seizing Thief.

Sparrow Shade surged forth from Lu Shu’s celestial map. When the purple scarf charged forth, Sparrow Shade was like a fish in water. It did not allow the purple scarf to touch it!

Nie Ting coldly observed this from the side. The black sword in his hands had absorbed all the drops of blood on it. The two masters that Yu Fuyao brought had died a terrible death. Their faces were filled with black veins.

This sword had strange origins. Even when Lu Shu asked, Nie Ting had never answered where it had come from.

Nie Ting did not move. He had to wait for others to continue attacking.

The fight between Lu Shu and Yu Fuyao was the most important fight in the Luniverse. No matter whether one wanted to kill Yu Fuyao or Lu Shu, this was the best time to do so!

The mantis catches a cicada, but a finch lurks behind. But in this battle, it was not clear who the cicada, mantis, or finch were. No one knew whether there was a hunter aiming his shot behind the finch!

At that moment, another void opened behind Lu Shu. Nie Ting slashed his sword. He was waiting for this exact moment!

No matter who the person was, the person who appeared behind Lu Shu and tried to attack him was the person that Nie Ting wanted to kill!

The sword flashed, The person who walked out of the void was so confident that they used two fingers to catch Nie Ting’s sword. They laughed, “You actually dared to join the fight as a puny master.”

Black fog revolved around their fingers. It was as if the rules of the world had been blocked. But the moment they finished speaking, they realized that the black sword was slowly breaking through. They were so shocked that they let go and stepped back!

Shi Xuejin looked at the person. They were on a bronze lamp. There was also the black spirit of a master holding a bronze lamp. Shi Xuejin was puzzled. He asked, “What the f*ck is that?”

Nie Ting laughed. “You’ve started to curse too.”

Shi Xuejin also laughed. “It’s not rare to curse when you encounter something like this.”

Nie Ting looked at the person and laughed coldly. “With my realm, it is enough to kill you. Let me repeat myself. From today onwards, the realm shall also be called Shen Cang Jing in the Luniverse.”

The evil intention of God Lu laughed. “Shen Cang Jing? Why?”

Nie Ting said, “Because it is the name that I came up with.”

Before he finished speaking, he attacked with his sword!

But the evil intention of God Lu was not angry. He looked towards the direction where Lu Shu and Yu Fuyao were fighting. Then, he looked at Nie Ting and Shi Xuejin. He said, “Then I will kill you first.”

Cloud Yi, Tiger Zhi, and Cao Qingci were rushing over at top speed, but three spirits appeared in front of them and blocked the way. Cloud Yi laughed coldly. “I don’t think you have enough people to kill us.”

But one of the spirits laughed. “You have delayed for long enough. Stop advancing. Your battlefield is here.”

Lu Shu and Yu Fuyao rapidly fought. Every time they attacked, the entire world started to shake. This was truly a clash between worlds!

As Yu Fuyao retreated, she laughed. “Do you remember? This is the scarf that you gave me.”

“Then I will rip it apart with my own hands,” said Lu Shu coldly.

When the scarf charged towards Lu Shu, he suddenly disappeared in front of Yu Fuyao. Yu Fuyao was alert. She stepped into a void. When they reappeared, they realized that they had swapped positions!

Masters were like phantoms when they fought. They were as fast as lightning.

When the rules clashed, Lu Shu realized that the restricted airspace of the palace was starting to break apart. It was as if there were bright shooting stars in the sky.

Yu Fuyao flew into the sky. Lu Shu followed behind, flames trailing behind him. The massive energy was a result of the friction between his body, his rule, and the Luniverse.

Lu Shu felt himself breaking through all the shackles. The original world had to retreat as his new world formed.

The people on the ground could no longer interfere with the battle in the sky. It was a battle between two people of the Eternity Realm!

In the sky, Yu Fuyao said, “Why can’t you come into my arms? This way, we won’t have to kill each other like this!”

“Are you suitable?” Lu Shu charged towards Yu Fuyao with Sparrow Shade. When they came into contact with each other, a large wave of energy rippled to the distance.

Yu Fuyao angrily shouted, “You were born as a king. Why do you have to live as a lowly human in this life!”

“We are not lowly.” Lu Shu charged towards Yu Fuyao with flames trailing behind him. When they clashed, the heaven and the earth trembled.

Yu Fuyao laughed. “Humans are not suitable to possess the celestial map. It is the ruler of the stars.”

This time, the purple scarf split into countless threads and brushed past the Sparrow Shade. They arrived in front of Lu Shu in an instant. Lu Shu did not retreat or give in. He gritted his teeth and controlled the Sparrow Shade to pierce through Yu Fuyao’s body!

Sparrow Shade clashed with Yu Fuyao’s rules. Massive energy burst forth. It was as if fireworks had been set off above the palace.

But this time, Lu Shu was shocked. He had activated his rules and prepared to defend against Yu Fuyao’s attacks, but the purple scarf instantly stopped.

Lu Shu knew that he might not be able to block this attack. He also knew that Yu Fuyao had a chance.

After Yu Fuyao lost all her strength, she looked at her own aged body. She laughed. “You still have some conscience to not harm my face. Being able to die beautifully is a form of happiness. I’ve said that I love you, right? You might not believe me, but even now, I can’t bear to kill you. It would be great if time could rewind. I would not have crawled out of the ruins. In this life, you opened the sixth nebula for me. You won’t forget me, right?”

Yu Fuyao finished saying everything she wanted to say. She closed her eyes and used the last bit of her strength to go through a void and land on the ground. She was afraid that a heavy landing would ruin her appearances.

Lu Shu was left standing among the clouds. But he did not seem like a king at all. He seemed more like a lost child.

He looked up at the sky. “Come out. I’m curious. Why didn’t you kill me from behind?”

Qing Kong bent over and walked out from a void. He laughed. “The spectator sees most clearly. Yu Fuyao could not have killed you. She has always wanted to kill me. If you did not sacrifice yourself, she would have continued waiting until I appeared. I would not have been able to endure that.”

Lu Shu paused for a long time. Then, he said, “Now that you have come here, do you have the confidence to kill me?”

Qing Kong laughed. “Your sword is broken. So are your rules. What else do you have to fight me?”

“Really?” Lu Shu expressionlessly said, “It is said that you are the royalty of the Blood Devils. But I don’t think you understand that word. Either that, or you are not suitable to understand.”

During the fight, Seizing Thief broke. Corpsedog broke. Concealed Arrow broke. Sparrow Shade had also broken into pieces after attacking Yu Fuyao’s world at the very last moment.

But he still had the gourd. Lu Shu took out the gourd from his celestial map. The flying sword in the gourd was itching to attack.

Qing Kong put his hands and shook his head. “That is not enough. Back then, when the old King of Gods faced me, I would not dare to say that a gourd would be able to defeat me. Of course, I am talking about when everyone was of the master realm. Since he was in the Eternity Realm, I definitely could not beat him... but now, I am also of the Eternity Realm.”

Lu Shu looked at Qing Kong and said in a serious tone, “I am impatient.”

Qing Kong was dumbfounded. “What?”

“I said, I am impatient.” Lu Shu shook his head. “All of you are taking turns to fight me. There is no end. So, hurry up and die. I still need to go down and fight another one. But I have never paid attention to it. Once I’m done with you, it will all end.”

Perhaps others would feel helpless when they faced the evil intention of God Lu. But to Lu Shu, no matter how strong it was, he would be able to defeat it with one strike from the head-twisting gourd. When its plans were destroyed, whatever was left of it would not be frightening.

Thus, Lu Shu was not afraid of the evil intention of God Lu. His true enemy was Qing Kong.

Qing Kong laughed. “What will you use to kill me?”

His laugh slowly turned into an angry shout. “You have deprived me of freedom for so many years. Now, I am also of the Eternity Realm. What will you use to kill me?!”

They charged towards each other. Qing Kong drew a red sword from below his rib and slashed at Lu Shu. The flying sword from within the gourd slashed at Qing Kong without any hesitation. Ka! A crack appeared in Qing Kong’s world rule.

“I said, the current you cannot kill me!” Qing Kong mocked him. Wings appeared from behind him. There was no flesh on his wings, only sharp bones.

But the moment they clashed, Lu Shu laughed. “That is not for sure.”

As Lu Shu spoke, he stretched his hand into a void. The void opened up. On the other side of the void... was the Changbai Mountains.

There seemed to be nothing on the Changbai Mountains. But the moment the void opened, a transparent sword flew towards Lu Shu, landing in Lu Shu’s palm!

The Cheng Ying sword!

In a flash, Lu Shu drew the Cheng Ying sword from the void. A white dragon appeared from the transparent sword. A black dragon appeared behind Qing Kong, with its mouth wide open.

Qing Kong’s world rule had a radius of 100 meters. The two dragons bit on it. Ka! The world rule broke into pieces.

Qing Kong could not react in time. He had no chance to react either. A transparent sword broke his wings. Then, he was fiercely stabbed in the heart.

Lu Shu tightly gripped the Cheng Ying sword and pushed Qing Kong to the ground. There was disbelief in Qing Kong’s eyes. He felt that he should not die like this. He should be the new king of the Luniverse!

Qing Kong gripped the Cheng Ying sword. He wanted to pull the sword out bit by bit.

But he could not pull out the sword.

They fell to the ground like a shooting star. Crash! Waves of sand surged forth wildly from the impact. Then, they sunk into the ground. A massive crater had been formed. Lu Shu lifted the Cheng Ying sword out from the dust.

Lu Shu looked at Yu Fuyao, who was silently lying on the floor. Her expression was calm. In the span of one day, two Eternity Realm experts had fallen. But Lu Shu knew that a third would join their ranks.

To Lu Shu, the battle was already over. He only had to eliminate the evil intention of God Lu. It was simple.

He looked up. Nie Ting and the evil intention of God Lu were trying to kill each other. The entire place had been changed beyond recognition after the fight. In the distance, mountains had collapsed. It was as if a massive sword had slashed the ground. Even the ground was smooth and even.

No one knew how Nie Ting, a master, was evenly matched with an Eternity Realm expert, even after such a long battle.

The evil intention of God Lu probably had the same doubt!

At that moment, Nie Ting had killed the spirit that the evil intention of God Lu relied on to move around. No one helped it to carry the bronze lamp. The evil intention of God Lu was simply a target.

Lu Shu looked at the evil intention of God Lu and sympathized with him. “Even Qing Kong died with more respect than you.”

The evil intention of God Lu roared, “I am...”

But before it could finish speaking, a black sword pierced through from its back. Nie Ting took the opportunity while its attention was on Lu Shu to end its life.

Nie Ting slowly pulled out his sword from its chest. “You speak too much nonsense.”

Lu Shu was dumbstruck. “Hey, you shouldn’t have stolen my kill, right? You should have left it to me! You stole it so simply!”

Nie Ting glanced at Lu Shu. “This is war.”

“What kind of stupid war is this? You stole my kill!” Lu Shu roared angrily.

But at that moment, Lu Shu turned and looked at Shi Xuejin. Shi Xuejin was slowly walking towards the battlefield in the palace.

Lu Shu shouted at Shi Xuejin, “What are you doing?”

Shi Xuejin turned back and smiled. “The Confucian school of thought says that life and death are ruled by fate, and wealth is determined by the heavens. If you don’t know life, how will you know death? Buddhists say that everything is subjective and that nothing is real. Once you reach a certain realm, you will be able to see everything in its pure form. Taoists say to go with nature and that everything is decided by fate. I thought that I was well-versed in the three teachings, but I did not understand anything. Yet, I feel like I have understood.”

Lu Shu walked briskly towards Shi Xuejin. “Why are you saying all of this?”

But to Lu Shu’s shock, he realized that he could not approach Shi Xuejin. No matter how much he ran, he could not reach Shi Xuejin. Lu Shu was of the Eternity Realm, but he could not even catch up with Shi Xuejin!

Lu Shu had an unpleasant premonition. He turned and looked at Nie Ting. “Stop him! What is he doing?”

But Nie Ting did not move. His gaze was complex. He watched as Shi Xuejin walked towards the battlefield. “He has spent his entire life looking for his path. He has walked on roads that people have never explored. He said that there is joy in progressing step by step. He has probably found his path now.”

Path? Lu Shu was stunned. What was that? It had surpassed the existence of realms.

Shi Xuejin stepped onto the dirt and blood on the ground. He turned back and naturally said, “What path? I just don’t want them to die. Some people have listened to me teach at the Cultivation College in the Capital. Now, my students are dying. I have to save them.”

That year, Shi Xuejin suddenly understood everything one morning. All the flowers in the Capital bloomed. People were cured of all their ailments.

Now, it was just like how Shi Xuejin had reached an understanding back then. Green shoots started to grow out from the ground, which was mixed with blood, as Shi Xuejin walked past.

But this time, golden powder flew around in the sky. The injuries of the Imperial Dragon Soldiers and the Flood of Bronze slowly healed. The corpses of the Blood Devil turned into dust.

Shi Xuejin sat in the battlefield. The entire battlefield burst forth with flowers. He looked at Nie Ting and smiled. “Take care.”

Then, Shi Xuejin closed his eyes.

Epilogue

“Heavenly King Nie, something terrible has happened!” Someone ran into the principal’s office in the Luo Shen Cultivation College.

Nie Ting was looking at documents. He looked up at his visitor. “What happened?”

“Teacher Lu is fighting with another teacher again,” said the visitor.

Nie Ting rubbed his temples. “And why did this happen?”

“Students from two different classes started to fight. Teacher Lu and the teacher from the other class came to resolve the situation. After they listened to the explanation from their students, Teacher Lu felt that his student was not wrong. Teacher Chen also said that his student was not wrong. Then, Teacher Lu hit Teacher Chen. Teacher Cheng tried to pull them apart, but failed...”

Nie Ting closed his file of documents and looked at his visitor. He calmly said, “If you want to end work on time, don’t care about them. Let them fight it out.”

With that, Nie Ting walked to the door and put on his coat. He prepared to end work and go home. His visitor was dumbstruck!

Nie Ting walked out of the Luo Shen Cultivation College through a shortcut. He walked along the streets of Luo City. He smiled and greeted some new residents in the city. He had never paid attention to the fight between Teacher Lu and Teacher Chen.

He returned home and opened the door to the courtyard. He brushed off the dust on his body and said to the kitchen, “Is there any millet gruel?”

Suddenly, Nie Ting stiffened. He recalled that there was no one to cook millet gruel for him anymore.

Nie Ting smiled and lay down on the armchair in his courtyard. The spring breeze blew. It was very pleasing.

Nie Ting fell asleep.

He dreamed that he had returned to 20 years ago. Back then, he was still a young man. A large group of unruly young men followed behind him. They ran along the small lane that was lined with fallen leaves. The unruly young men shouted, “We’ll see how far you can run! Once we catch up to you, we will beat you to death!”

Suddenly, a young man holding a thread-bound book charged into the lane. This young man was slightly older. He started to chase the group of unruly young men. “Don’t let me see you again. If I see you again, I will beat you up until your mothers can no longer recognize you!”

The thread-bound book rolled up in his hand was like a stick. It was rather threatening.

Nie Ting leaned against the door of the courtyard and panted. “Shi, you are rather fierce.”

Shi Xuejin turned and smiled. “I asked you to practice swordplay with my father, but you wouldn’t listen.”

“But even if I practice swordplay, I might not be able to defeat so many people.” Nie Ting was not convinced.

Shi Xuejin held the rolled-up book and knocked Nie Ting’s head. “Then attack them from behind! Can’t you make an unexpected blow?”

Nie Ting thought about it. “Right! Unexpected attack! Is there anything to eat at home? I’m hungry.”

“Yes. I just cooked millet gruel.”

The autumn breeze blew. Yellow leaves twirled in the air before slowly landing on the ground. The laughter of two young men did not stop.
