Spare Me, Great Lord!

Chapter 996: Please Pardon Me

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

When a distress point of +1000 was seen in the records, Lu Shu knew that his claim of how the Puppet Masters have all died had affected Ming Yueye greatly.

Since Lu Shu started collecting distress points, there were very few occasions when he managed to collect 1000 distress points from someone who was still alive...

Lu Shu could understand Ming Yueye’s condition. If Ming Yueye was really one of the members of the Puppet Masters, the death of Cloud Yi and Tiger Zhi would be an extremely fatal blow to Ming Yueye.

“Your relationship with them must be very good?” said Lu Shu calmly.

“Since you said that all the Puppet Masters are dead, can you name the remaining Puppet Masters?” asked Ming Yueye calmly.

This was a challenge for Lu Shu. He only knew the names of Cloud Yi and Tiger Zhi. The Dream Chooser threw him into the Luniverse but Lu Shu did not know that the Dream Chooser was also a Puppet Master! This was the result of not having the correct information!

Li Xianyi knew that that individual was the Dream Chooser but he did not have the chance to tell Lu Shu that.

Lu Shu knew about it. However, when the Golden Foundation attacked the Puppet Masters, only Cloud Yi and Tiger Zhi were left!

Ming Yueye laughed suddenly. “Alright, you don’t know. Looks like they are all fine.”

Lu Shu shrugged. “You look very proud. Now that I have confirmed your identity, the problem comes.”

Ming Yueye was stunned. “What problem?”

Lu Shu asked, “Do you know who I am?”

Ming Yueye was speechless.

Lu Shu said, “Please pardon me.”

“From Ming Yueye’s distress, +666!”

Lu Shu eventually won this round. Lu Shu knew Ming Yueye’s identity but Ming Yueye was still clueless about Lu Shu’s identity.

However, Lu Shu did not understand why Ming Yueye was trapped in this place. Moreover, where exactly in the Luniverse was Ming Yueye?

How many Puppet Masters were there? What on earth happened to the old King of Gods and the new King of Gods?

Ming Yueye said suddenly, “Tell me the status of the Puppet Masters and I will tell you what you want to know. How about that?”

Lu Shu thought about it. “Answer some of my questions first and I will tell you the status of the Puppet Masters, how about that?”

Ming Yueye said in despair, “Are we really going to enter this kind of dead cycle?!”

Lu Shu laughed coldly. “If you were more sincere, we would not have lost our trust for each other!”

However, at this moment, the Chaos Abyss started lighting up. It was probably the first time Lu Shu saw how the Chaos Abyss looked like when it was lit up. He looked at the far end of the Chaos Abyss and realized that there was a strange and mysterious symbol on the stone wall. It... It looked more like a seal, a seal which all families in the Luniverse would possess.

However, before Lu Shu could see it clearly, he turned and saw Ming Yueye’s expression change drastically as he said with a deep voice, “Leave!”

Lu Shu did not give too many thoughts to this. He had rechanneled his celestial powers into the black pearl at that instant and he retreated back to the room in the inn.

He sat in the room in the inn in panic. Did someone go to the Chaos Abyss? Was it the person who captured Ming Yueye? The new King of Gods of the Luniverse?

He was not sure if the other party saw him. He did not want to get involved. Lu Shu had been in touch with Ming Yueye for many times and had even drunk with Ming Yueye when he was at the loneliest point in his life.

Lu Shu felt that Ming Yueye was not a bad person. He was being witty to protect himself. After all, he had been imprisoned and it was normal for him to be wary of others. If it was Lu Shu, he would also refuse to tell others about what he knew.

Moreover, not only was Lu Shu able to understand Ming Yueye, there was a point in time when he felt like saving Ming Yueye when he saw the new scars on Ming Yueye’s wrists and ankles.

Suddenly, Yi Qian walked in. “Something terrible has happened.”

Lu Shu was stunned. “What?”

“Many of the villagers in the palace are saying that you have been eliminated. I didn’t know what was going on and decided to check on your safety, I also thought that you will definitely not be eliminated,” said Yi Qian but he suddenly felt confused. “However, there’s nothing wrong with you, boss, why did such news spread?”

“When did this happen?” Lu Shu was bothered.

“Just now, there were shouts of happiness on the streets and some people are even setting off firecrackers,” said Yi Qian.

Lu Shu was speechless. “... Who set the firecrackers? Do you remember how he looks like?”

Was the gamblers of the palace crazy or did I, Lu Shu, say that I am not planning to fight?! Why did one set off the firecrackers?!

He said to Lu Xiaoyu, “Let’s go and take a look!”

When they stepped on the streets, they saw the villagers walking along the streets as though they were having a massive celebration.

“Who asked you to collaborate with the gambling dens to be the bookmaker!”

“Who asked you to cheat our hard-earned money!”

Lu Shu covered his face and pulled onto a young person’s arm. He thought that this young person looked familiar but did not know where he had met him before. “Cough cough, why is Lu Shu eliminated?”

The young person looked extremely happy. “You didn’t know, Lu Shu’s name disappeared from the stone tablet!”

Yi Qian explained softly, “There is a stone tablet outside the Sword Hut. All the names of those selected after the selection of the Sword Hut would appear on the tablet. Those who are eliminated will have their names disappear. This is the way to determine if one was eliminated or not.”

“Then why are you so happy?” Lu Shu was bothered.

“That brat is extremely ruthless. If his name is no longer on the tablet, it means that he has been eliminated. Doesn’t this deserve a celebration?” The young person bragged joyfully, “Do you know how much money I lost from betting on the Black Feather Army, now that I have joined the selection of the Sword Hut with him, do you know how much I have been hoping for him to be eliminated? Now that my dream has come true, I really want to punch myself to see if I am dreaming or not!”

Lu Xiaoyu looked sympathetically at Lu Shu and Yi Qian closed his eyes...

Dong!

The young person was punched on the chest and could not stand up for a long while. Lu Xiaoyu sighed as she opened her eyes, “I think I need to rephrase my sentence. To be accurate, the contestants who have spoken with Lu Shu before will have a 100 percent elimination rate. Yes, this is a better way to phrase it.”

Lu Shu looked at the crowd. Why did he get eliminated? He asked Yi Qian, “Did I violate the rules?”

“No!” Yi Qian was also very surprised. “However, the stone tablet won’t be wrong. It is controlled by the senior disciple of the Sword Hut.”

Suddenly, the people in front of them became agitated. Many of them started roaring furiously. Lu Shu did not understand why. However, before he could stop someone and ask, the news had spread. The Sword Hut had announced that Lu Shu was not eliminated but was given an early offer.

In the history of the Sword Hut selections, he was the first candidate to be given an early offer!
