Today, Lu Shu did not make any lame jokes. He simply prepared to teach. It was as if he felt that this was a very formal occasion. He had to be serious as well.

He had been a teacher for more than a month, but he had never taken his position seriously. When he occasionally joked with the students, he still felt like a student.

Everyday, he played Chinese chess with Chen Zuan and the rest in the laboratory. He still posted unreliable bits of wisdom on his page and earned distress points from his students.

But he did not post anything today. He did not play Chinese chess in the laboratory either. Chen Zuan, Cheng Qiuqiao, and Cao Qingci silently looked at Lu Shu. He was standing by the window of the laboratory and s.p.a.cing out. It was as if he was thinking about something very important.

This was unusual. So unusual that Chen Zuan and the rest started to panic. They were afraid that Lu Shu would suddenly create trouble that would kill them.

Lu Shu did create trouble, but he did not plan to kill people.

Chen Zuan suddenly felt that today’s Lu Shu was very different from the usual Lu Shu…

They also suddenly realized that Lu Shu had always been growing, and had always been changing. No matter whether it was a good change or a bad change, the once selfish young man had now gained an understanding of the world.

Perhaps Lu Shu had never changed. He had never been selfish to the point of immorality. He was not truly cold-blooded either. He just did what he felt was right. This time, he had decided to accept the warmth of the world, and repay it with warmth.

Two years had pa.s.sed since the start of the magically rich era. In these two years, Lu Shu had met many people and experienced a life that he had never thought about before in the past. This time, he wanted to fulfill the promise he had made. He wanted to fight for the Heavenly Network.

At first, the students did not realize the importance of his words. When they heard that Lu Shu wanted to talk about what had happened at the Collection of G.o.ds, their first reaction was, “Hm? Was Lord Lu at the Collection of G.o.ds back then as well? Does Lord Lu know who the Ninth Heavenly King is?”

The portrait of the Ninth Heavenly King and Liu Xiu were beside each other. All the students had realized this. After all, it was the biggest piece of gossip within the Heavenly Network.

The Heavenly Kings were top combat powers in the Heavenly Network. Everyone knew that there was the Ninth Heavenly King, but they did not know who the Heavenly King was. This piqued their curiosity.

This was like some advertis.e.m.e.nts in the past that deliberately censored its content. A cloth then covered the countdown timer. Everyone had to wait for nine days before the advertis.e.m.e.nt underneath was revealed.

Eventually, the entire city started to talk about the advertis.e.m.e.nt. Everyone’s curiosity had been piqued.

The Ninth Heavenly King. The most mysterious Heavenly King. The answer was about to be revealed. Would Lord Lu tell them the truth?

Lu Shu scanned the audience and calmly said, “Back then, the Collection of G.o.ds issued an arrest warrant for me. They wanted to use the Deep Sea White Sand to trade for my life. Zhong Yutang found me immediately. I worked together with You Mingyu to pretend that I was dead. During that period, I could not appear in public, Furthermore, I am someone who will take revenge. If you have a warrant against me, I will kill you. Thus, I went to the Collection of G.o.ds and started a new life with a new ident.i.ty.”

“That was my first time being a spy. But it couldn’t be considered a success… my cover was always mysteriously blown…” Lu Shu helplessly laughed. Zhong Yutang, who had just arrived, became unhappy when he heard this. Were you not ashamed of your ident.i.ty being exposed?

But Zhong Yutang did not say anything. He silently looked at the young man on the stage. He seemed more composed, as if he was prepared to accept the various dazzling glories.

Lu Shu continued. “Back then, I met a female colleague who was responsible for helping me. Of course, I can’t reveal her name. She was an ordinary person, but her words touched me. She said that there were some things that people just had to do.”

“Later on, I found out that Takas.h.i.+ma Tairatsu was planning to sacrifice the members of the Collection of G.o.ds so that he could advance. Thus, I infiltrated the base that he had built and tried to sabotage his plans.” Lu Shu romanticized the situation. After all, he could reveal that he had wanted to steal magical stones…

“Back then, I was alone with no support. It was difficult to sabotage Takas.h.i.+ma’s plan alone. After all, he was almost a Cla.s.s A. Back then, a Cla.s.s C expert tried to attack me, but I did not notice. That was when Liu Xiu protected me.”

Lu Shu looked as if he was reminiscing the past. “To be honest, I still don’t understand. If he continued to hide, he had a very high chance of survival. But he choose to protect me. He used his blood and his swords to buy me time. After that, I could not understand why he had done that for a very long time. Was there anything in this world that was more important than one’s own life? Maybe I was too selfish, thus I could not come up with an answer. Till now, I still feel that one’s own life is the most important. But I also understand that there are some things that people just have to do.”

The students suddenly realized that they had been thinking of the wrong thing. While the Ninth Heavenly King and Liu Xiu killed Takas.h.i.+ma Tairatsu, Lord Lu was not an observer. He had taken part in it!

They had wanted to ask Lu Shu who the Ninth Heavenly King was. Now, Lu Shu had revealed the answer.

Lu Shu felt as if he had been relieved of a heavy load. He had finally talked about this buried past. He had provided the best remarks for Liu Xiu as a partic.i.p.ant of the incident.

Zhong Yutang silently looked at Lu Shu. He was very clear that the battle had been cla.s.sified because Lu Shu did not want to accept the position of Heavenly King. Lu Shu knew this as well.

Thus, when Lu Shu talked about this himself, this meant that Lu Shu had already made his preparations.

Lu Shu smiled. “This is my last lesson. I hope that all of you have gained something from my lessons.”

A student suddenly asked, “Heavenly King Lu, where are you going? Are you going to stop teaching?”

When Lu Shu heard the t.i.tle of Heavenly King Lu, he was dumbfounded. This was his first time hearing this name. He was not used to it. He thought about the danger that waited for him at the Changbai Mountains. Suddenly, he started to talk to himself. “I feel that you will have a moment in your life when you tell yourself, this is me, and this is my decision.”

This was what Lu Shu had learned after his conversation with Lu Xiaoyu yesterday. The solution to problems in life was not to run away. It was to make the problem disappear, or… kill the person who created the problem.

That day, the portrait of the Ninth Heavenly King beside Liu Xiu that had been a black silhouette was finally replaced with Lu Shu’s portrait.

Lu Shu was smiling in the picture. His smile was as bright as the sun.
