Spare Me, Great Lord!

Chapter 581: Jade Slip and the Secret Method

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

When Lu Shu received the admission letter, it was as if he had achieved satisfaction in life. Lu Shu had won this round, while Nie Ting had no choice but to step back and allow him to go to school.

Ha ha, if Nie Ting had known that it would come to this, there would have been no use ignoring Lu Shu’s calls and disappearing. He wouldn’t even let Lu Shu go to the Luo Shen Cultivation College over his dead body!

Nie Ting glanced at Lu Shu, who was visibly bubbling with happiness. His expression darkened. “Since I have given you admission, I hope that you will not waste this opportunity to study.”

He felt that it was good to let Lu Shu to go school. After all, the Cultivation Colleges would have their own respective intelligence courses. If Lu Shu had a change of heart and decided to go overseas, these courses would benefit him.

Lu Shu recovered from his euphoria. He did not hear what Nie Ting had said. “Please pardon me.”

Nie Ting was silent.

“From Nie Ting’s distress, +666!”

Shi Xuejin, who was sitting at the side, painfully looked on. He quickly changed the subject. “Lu Shu, where did Hai Gongzi go?”

“A place where he won’t be able to get out of so quickly. There is no need to worry.” Lu Shu waved with indifference. “He needs proper treatment. If not, he will always see others as inferior to him.”

“So that’s what happened.” Shi Xuejin carefully phrased his words. “Consider his past contributions to the human race. Could you give him a chance?”

Lu Shu was unhappy. Shi Xuejin had never talked about Hai Gongzi’s contributions. “I have also contributed to the Heavenly Network, but I have never seen you give me a chance.”

Nie Ting said coldly, “Although Hai Gongzi is arrogant, he will not attack his owner out of his own initiative. You should also reflect whether you have done anything wrong.”

Shi Xuejin chimed in, “Yes, yes, you have to engage in self-introspection multiple times everyday...”

“Ha ha,” Lu Shu laughed coldly. He was indeed in the wrong. After all, it was not very appropriate to make a five-taloned Panlong squat on the ground and pick up beans. But he could not lose. “You have to engage in self-introspection multiple times everyday. But is that ‘you’ too polite? Is that ‘you’ giving him face? Shouldn’t the ‘you’ take action?”

“Hurry up. Where is Hai Gongzi?” Nie Ting could not stand it any more. Hai Gongzi was indebted to his teacher. Furthermore, he had sacrificed himself for the human race. Nie Ting could not allow Hai Gongzi to suffer in Lu Shu’s hands.

Earlier, when he and Shi Xuejin saw Lu Shu badly battered, they were silently happy. They did not give the Cheng Ying sword to the wrong person.

But now, they were panicking... they could not panic. They did not even know where Hai Gongzi had been sent!

Shi Xuejin looked at Lu Shu, who was laughing coldly but did not speak. He said, “How about this. I will teach you a secret method to recall Hai Gongzi in the Cheng Ying sword. In the future, if you do not wish to see him, you can make him return to the sword.”

Lu Shu was dumbfounded.

So all along, there was a secret method to recall a sword spirit? And I was never informed?! Shouldn’t this information come along with the Cheng Ying sword? What are you hiding, old man?

“Ahem,” Shi Xuejin looked visibly awkward. “Do you want to learn the secret method?”

“Yes, how could I not know?” Lu Shu said.

Shi Xuejin took out a small jade slip from the house. The jade slip seemed to be from the ancient times. “Put your magical instincts into this jade slip. Thereafter, you will learn the secret method.”

Lu Shu was somewhat skeptical. He took the jade slip and did as Shi Xuejin said. There were no markings or words on the jade slip, only faint energy being emitted from it. The moment his magical instincts came into contact with that energy, he understood how to recall the Cheng Ying sword spirit.

“Wait.” Lu Shu went into his room and locked the door. He took out the black pearl and entered the Chaos Abyss.

Nie Ting raised his eyebrows. “His breath has completely disappeared. It is as if he has gone to another world!”

Shi Xuejin was astonished. “Are you saying that he has gained access into a relic?”

“Probably.”

It was dark and gloomy in the Chaos Abyss. Ming Yueye had been trapped here for so long that he had seemingly forgotten about the time.

Someone had finally come to accompany him, but he was not quite normal either.

Now, Ming Yueye’s greatest pastime was watching Hai Gongzi pick up green beans. It was very hypnotizing...

“4491, 4492, 4493...” Hai Gongzi counted as he picked up the green beans. This was much better than counting sheep.

Suddenly, a wave rippled in the Chaos Abyss and Lu Shu appeared out of thin air.

Hai Gongzi stood up straight and coldly looked at Lu Shu. “Give me a bag!”

“Stop picking up the green beans. Nie Ting and Shi Xuejin asked me to bring you out,” said Lu Shu. This was an act.

Hai Gongzi furrowed his eyebrows. “Nothing will happen to me even if I am here for ten thousand years. You are the one who has to be careful. If I am not in the Cheng Ying sword, it will fall apart in less than a year.”

Lu Shu was dumbfounded. He did not know about this. “Because you have a symbiotic relationship with the sword?”

“I am the Cheng Ying’s guardian. It needs me to absorb magical energy from the earth to support it.” Hai Gongzi laughed coldly. “I can absorb magical energy to support myself. But if the Cheng Ying sword breaks, don’t come crying to me.”

“Stop this nonsense.” Lu Shu started to laugh coldly as well. “You’re talking as if you don’t need the Cheng Ying sword either. I don’t believe you can go anywhere once the sword breaks. Even a three year old could say things like this. Let’s go. I’ll bring you out.”

Lu Shu activated his secret method. Hai Gongzi suddenly felt a pulling force from the Cheng Ying sword, dragging him in. This contract between the weapon and its weapon spirit surpassed the boundaries of strength. Even Hai Gongzi could not resist this force.

Hai Gongzi did not think that Lu Shu would have mastered this skill. His expression changed. “Wait, I have not finished picking up the beans! 4493! Let me have a nice number!”

But Lu Shu did not give him the chance to do so. After he recalled Hai Gongzi into the Cheng Ying sword, he escaped from the Chaos Abyss.

“From Ao Hai’s distress, +999!”

Lu Shu felt that he still had a long way to go before he could reconcile with Hai Gongzi. But it did not matter. He still had a lot of time.

Nie Ting sensed that Lu Shu had returned. He said to Shi Xuejin in a low voice, “He’s back. I don’t know how he got access to the world in the relic. Why can’t I access the world in the Xin Ting sword?”

“There are many strange places within the relics. Take it easy.” Shi Xuejin sighed. “Why don’t you ask Lu Shu?”

Nie Ting was silent. “I think I will explore on my own.”

When Shi Xuejin heard this, he understood that the conflict between Nie Ting and Lu Shu was still not over.

When Lu Shu came outside, Shi Xuejin looked at Lu Shu. “Where is Hai Gongzi? I can only be at ease if I see him with my own eyes.”

Lu Shu laughed buoyantly. “Are you not at ease with me?”

Shi Xuejin was dumbfounded. “Where did your courage come from? Saying things like that!”

You were the last person to make people feel relieved!

“From Shi Xuejin’s distress, +199!”
