Chapter 1035: Long Time No See

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Jiang Shuyi. This was a name that Lu Shu had not seen in a long time. He seemed to have forgotten about him, but when he saw his name, he felt a sense of intimacy.

Back then, the Daoyuan Class had merged. A very pretty boy had suddenly joined them. Lu Shu had even stared at his throat.

Later on, they became friends. During the beginning stages of the magically rich period, Lu Shu obtained half of his information about the outside world from Jiang Shuyi.

Back then, Lu Shu had just obtained the Seal of Lands. He had wanted to help Jiang Shuyi change the concentration of magical energy at his place of training, but instead caused his house to collapse. Of course, Lu Shu would never admit that it was his fault. In reality, the value of a magically rich land far surpassed that of a villa. If a villa had collapsed, it could still be rebuilt, but magically rich lands were hard to come across.

They were still on good terms. Lu Shu had thought that they would go to the Cultivation College after graduating from high school, and work at the Heavenly Network after graduation. When Lu Shu felt that he had sufficiently repaid the Heavenly Network, he would bring Lu Xiaoyu to travel the world.

But everything did not go as smoothly as he had expected. Life could change a person. Lu Shu no longer planned on leaving the Heavenly Network. Instead, he became the Ninth Heavenly King.

Jiang Shuyi did not enter the Cultivation College with Lu Shu. One day, Jiang Shuyi suddenly disappeared from his world, as if no one had ever seen him.

But when Lu Shu was flipping through the Sword Hut records, he saw this name. Jiang Shuyi had written on the records. “Merging rivers into oceans – Jiang Shuyi.”

There were some comments below. “Senior disciple, you are amazing.”

“Senior disciple is our model example!”

Lu Shu had a question. Was this Jiang Shuyi the same Jiang Shuyi he knew?

His classmate had suddenly become a senior disciple of the Sword Hut. This was very strange.

Lu Shu climbed to the summit. Suddenly, he saw a young man sitting on the cliff with his back facing Lu Shu. He was training. Clouds, that looked like small swords, swirled around him.

He stood up, turned, and looked at Lu Shu. Lu Shu was silent. “Long time no see.”

He was very sure. From the person’s delicate facial features, he was definitely his classmate, Jiang Shuyi. But this was very puzzling. Lu Shu felt as if he was in a massive vortex that was slowly dragging him in.

Jiang Shuyi was still that Jiang Shuyi. He was devastatingly beautiful, but he was a male.

Lu Shu checked again. He had an Adam’s apple and his chest was flat. There was no doubt about it.

Jiang Shuyi calmly looked at Lu Shu. His expression was somewhat awkward. Suddenly, he said, “I am very curious. How did you find out about the sword spirit? Was it something Li Xianyi had passed down to you?”

There was a gap between them. Although Lu Shu was sure that it was Jiang Shuyi, their relationship would never be the same.

It was like drifting apart from an old classmate. You could be very close when you were in school, but when you met again years later, there would be some distance.

Jiang Shuyi’s words had broken the ice between them. Lu Shu excitedly said, “Come, come, sit down. This is going to be a long story.”

It was as if they were talking about the old days. Lu Shu described his experience in opening the Sea of Chi and snowy mountain, how the old man had tricked him and prevented him from opening the snowy mountain, how he had accidentally discovered the sword spirit, and how the old man had tricked him into thinking that the sword spirit could manipulate swords...

Jiang Shuyi listened with a smile. It was like a reunion between two long lost friends.

They were training the same type of swordplay. Thus, it was not difficult for the conversation to flow. However, Jiang Shuyi was slightly puzzled. “Are you saying that you had the snowy mountain even before you opened your Sea of Chi?”

“Yes.” Lu Shu nodded his head.

“... I had thought that the limit was merging rivers into oceans.”

This was the limit of Jiang Shuyi’s thought, as his teacher had only merged rivers into oceans. His disciples would naturally think that merging rivers into oceans was the limit.

But Lu Shu had a unique characteristic. He did not believe in limits. Thus, he was always breaking them.

“So you discovered the sword spirit by accident,” said Jiang Shuyi as he nodded his head.

There was chemistry between the two of them. They did not bring up some important questions. For example, if Jiang Shuyi was a senior disciple, then why did he appear on Earth as Lu Shu’s classmate?

And why had he returned?

There were some things that did not have to be said when they met each other.

“I have asked Gu Lingfei to prepare the rewards she has promised,” said Jiang Shuyi. “I seem to be the only one who knows what you are going to use the magical armor for. Furthermore, the Sword Hut storage happens to have such items. It is rare for everyone to wear the armor. I don’t know why either. The disciples of the Sword Hut all feel that wearing armor is too cumbersome. It is not natural.”

Lu Shu thought about it. Boldness of execution stems from superb skill. If they were all Rank Ones and Rank Twos, ordinary armor would be of no use.

But the people in the Heavenly Network were different. If his comrades did not have magical armor, a majority of them might die in a group battle. Of course, this was under the circumstance that they were evenly matched.

Lu Shu nodded his head. He did not decline. His discovery towards sword spirits was very applicable to the Sword Hut. He would definitely be rewarded.

Suddenly, he said, “Let me tell you something else.”

“Hm?” Jiang Shuyi was dumbfounded. “Is there something else?”

“There is not only one sword spirit. But I don’t know the limit of the number of sword spirits,” said Lu Shu calmly.

Jiang Shuyi was dumbfounded. “How many snowy mountains have you collapsed?!”

Jiang Shuyi suddenly realized one problem. If what Lu Shu had said was true, when the Sword Hut fought others in the future, one Rank One would have multiple pseudo Rank Ones!

What would it be like? If this was the case, the fate of the Sword Hut would change!

Needless to say, Lu Shu had paved a new path for the Sword Hut.

“What plans do you have after this?” Jiang Shuyi suddenly asked.

“Return to Earth.” Lu Shu acted as if he was puzzled. “If not, what would I do? Earth is my home.”

“I respect your decision,” said Jiang Shuyi. “Actually, there are times when I don’t understand... never mind.”

Old friends had lost their previous identities in the passage of time. They now had new identities and responsibilities.

Lu Shu suddenly asked, “Can I ask you something?”

Jiang Shuyi suddenly grew silent. There was a strange silence between them. He paused for a long time before saying, “Go ahead, but I may not be able to give you an answer.”

“Are you a guy or a girl?”

Jiang Shuyi was speechless.

“From Jiang Shuyi’s distress, +666!”
