Lü Shu's scalp went numb as he threw away the wood powder from the branch in his hand. He couldn't figure out how the other party managed to shatter the branch into powder without hurting his palm at all.
The young man in black robes stood tall and straight, but there was a sense of relaxation about him. It was as if he had assimilated with the world, not abrupt and not giving off any pressure. He was smiling.
Lü Shu patted the wood powder from his palm and pretended to be relaxed as he asked, "Who are you?"
"Haven't you already guessed it?" The young man put his hands in the wide sleeves of his robes and said with a smile, "Look at my clothes, don't you think it's very mysterious? And with my strength, did you not notice me even when I was behind you? So … guess who I am? "
Lü Shu was silent for two seconds. "So cocky?"
The young man: "???"
"Negative emotion points from Wen Zaifou, + 199!"
Sure enough, Lü Shu's guess was right. It was indeed the Emperor Of Heaven, Wen Zaifou, who had arrived personally.
However, Lü Shu couldn't understand why Wen Zaifou would appear in this place. Was it appropriate for someone as important as the Emperor Of Heaven to come to our small Luwang Mountain the moment he came out of seclusion?
To be honest, Lü Shu just wanted to enter Jianlu in a low-profile manner and find a way to go home before leaving quietly. Why did he even meet the Emperor Of Heaven now …
Fortunately, Lü Shu didn't say this out loud. Otherwise, Zhang Weiyu would have retorted on the spot. Didn't he know whether he was low-profile or not …
However, Wen Zaifou didn't seem to be angry at this moment. He was still smiling. "I was supposed to come out of seclusion three months later, but because of you, a mere Wu Weijun, I messed up my plan at the last minute. However, I still have the same question. Logically speaking, the Blackfeather Army retreated because of you guys. You guys deserve great credit, so why did you run?"
At this point, the smile on Wen Zaifou's face grew wider. "Or rather, where can you run to? Let me introduce myself. I am the Southern Emperor Of Heaven, Wen Zaifou. However, I prefer another name. "
After saying that, Wen Zaifou turned to look at Zhang Weiyu. "How have you been?"
Zhang Weiyu solemnly saluted with clasped hands. "Mr. Wen, I trust you have been well since we last met."
Lü Shu was stunned for a moment. Mr. Wen? It was a little weird to address the Emperor Of Heaven as Mr. Wen.
When Wen Zaifou saw Lü Shu's puzzled expression, he smiled and said, "You don't know their identities? Or maybe he guessed it but didn't dare to say it? What's there to be afraid of? You don't look like someone who's so timid. After all, you even joined forces with the Royal City's casino to take advantage of both sides. "
Lü Shu was unhappy, but when he thought of the other party's strength, he didn't say anything …
At this time, Zhang Weiyu opened his mouth. "Mr. Wen used to be my, Mituryū Kanao's, instructor, so we all respectfully address him as Mr. Wen."
Lü Shu almost sucked in a breath of cold air on the spot. He had already guessed Zhang Weiyu's identity. After all, Liu Yizhao usually didn't hide anything. He just didn't deliberately mention it.
However, Lü Shu absolutely didn't expect that Wen Zaifou used to be Mituryū Kanao's instructor. Then he was probably the closest person to the Divine King. Otherwise, how could he be the Emperor Of Heaven?
And at this moment, Lü Shu suddenly thought, why would the Old Divine King's backup, such as Zhang Weiyu and Liu Yizhao, be all placed in Nanzhou?
But right now, what made Lü Shu's balls hurt the most was that because Zhang Weiyu appeared by his side, Wen Zaifou would misunderstand something, right?
He heard Wen Zaifou say to Zhang Weiyu with a smile, "You old boys are finally willing to leave Field Ridge Town. When I asked you to leave Field Ridge Town to help me, didn't you say that you would never leave Field Ridge Town for the rest of your lives? How did a disaster of war force you out?"
Zhang Weiyu frowned. "Don't tell me you just want to see the scene of us leaving Field Ridge Town, and that's why you left the Blackfeather Army alone?"
Wen Zaifou raised his eyebrows. "Haha, how could I do such a childish thing?"
At that time, Lü Shu had a strong premonition that Zhang Weiyu's guess might very well be correct! Lü Shu felt more and more that there was a problem with the way this world unfolded. As for what the problem was, he couldn't quite figure it out.
Wen Zaifou shook his black ceremonial robe and said to Zhang Weiyu, "I have plenty of soldiers here for you to train, but you just had to train this Wu Weijun. You wasted your energy for nothing. It's not easy to train an army made up of bandits and street children to this extent."
Zhang Weiyu said calmly, "Mister Wen is an expert in training his own soldiers. You can train them yourself, why do you need us?"
Wen Zaifou suddenly opened his eyes wide. "I am already Emperor Of Heaven! I am the grand Emperor Of Heaven, and you want me to train soldiers? I can't afford to lose face like that! "
Zhang Weiyu was speechless.
"This young man …" Wen Zaifou carefully sized up Lü Shu. "He is …?"
"No." Zhang Weiyu shook his head, and the two of them started talking in riddles.
"I don't think so either. That person is so domineering, and it was a coincidence that you guys met." Wen Zaifou nodded and said.
Lü Shu suddenly felt that although this Wen Zaifou was in seclusion, he seemed to know a lot about the outside world. Also … why was this Emperor Of Heaven so smug?! Was this how a leader should act?
To be honest, Lü Shu always had the impression that a leader should be sinister, scheming, and the kind of person who would think ten steps before taking one step. But now that he thought about it …
Wen Zaifou glanced at Lü Shu and seemed to have guessed what he was thinking. He suddenly said, "Some people spend their whole lives scheming to get to the top, so of course they are used to calculating everything. But I am different. I rely on strength. Do you know what strength is? It is the kind that doesn't need to reason with people."
Lü Shu was speechless for a long time. Was it really okay for this kind of person to be the Emperor Of Heaven?
Seeing this, Lü Shu laughed and simply spread his hands. "Then I won't run. But why did you, Emperor Of Heaven, come to our mountain? Are you going to reward us?"
"That's right." Wen Zaifou nodded. "Weibei Pass, Liyang Pass, Guangliao City, Nangeng City, and Yunan City. How about I give them to you?"
Lü Shu said, "I don't want them."
More than five thousand people guarding five cities and passes? Unless Lü Shu was crazy, he wouldn't do that.
Wu Weijun was a collective with very strong overall strength. Once he was separated, he wouldn't be as strong as imagined.
At this moment, twelve people flew over from the north. Lü Shu saw with his own eyes that Wen Zaifou's expression suddenly turned cold, and his tone and airs were raised.
The twelve people landed in front of Wen Zaifou and knelt on one knee. "Congratulations, Emperor Of Heaven, for coming out of seclusion."
"If I still didn't come out, would I really have lost ten cities?" Wen Zaifou asked calmly.
One of them said with some fear, "Now that the passes have all been recovered, I hope that Emperor Of Heaven will give us a chance."
