Chapter 1301: The Real Name of the Puppet Masters

Zhang Weiyu had led armies before. Thus, he realized that this city had space for at least 300 to 400 thousand soldiers.

The Imperial Dragon Soldiers had over 5000 people, while the Sword Hut had slightly over 1000 people. Who did Lu Xiaoyu leave this space for? Earlier, Lu Shu had said that he would not allow armies from the West and South Regions to enter the inner city. Even if Lu Shu trusted Wen Zaifou, and even if Sun Xunwen displayed good performance, he would not leave the lives of his family in the hands of intuition.

Lu Shu knew that if his judgment was correct, Wen Zaifou would definitely attack. But since he had not attacked, this meant that Wen Zaifou had no plans of defending the city.

As for Sun Xunwen, Lu Shu felt that Sun Xunwen did not care about the West Lord of Heaven army. He had just become the West Lord of Heaven. Before his position was stabilized, he would not think of showing off in front of Lu Shu.

Many people in the West Region army that he led were not yet disciplined. Sun Xunwen had used his strength as a master to force them to come and was essentially sending them to their deaths. He wanted to purge the West Region!

After this battle, all the important positions in the West Region would belong to the Sun family. Then, the Sun family would be stable within the West Region!

This was a cruel and merciless tactic. Lu Shu felt that only Sun Xunwen was capable of this!

Lu Xiaoyu looked at Zhang Weiyu. “I cannot confirm everything, but we have to make sufficient preparations.”

Zhang Weiyu nodded his head. He felt that Chief Manager Lu Xiaoyu was much more reliable in making plans than the Great Lord. It was right to follow her plans.

At that moment, Lu Shu was still waiting for a reply from the Sword Hut. Gu Lingfei looked uneasy. Lu Shu laughed cheerily. “Do you think you can help your own people fight?”

Gu Lingfei asked, “Did you include the Sword Hut from the very beginning?”

Lu Shu’s smile slowly disappeared. He said with a poker face, “If I do not include you, can you stay out of the situation?”

Suddenly, a floating peak appeared out of thin air. Jiang Shuyi walked down the steps in her large white robe. “We will follow you to the inner city.”

“Senior disciple, are we agreeing to him so easily?” Gu Lingfei seemed unwilling to give in.

Jiang Shuyi smiled warmly and waved her hand. “What else can we do then?”

“He harmed our master.” Gu Lingfei angrily said, “We should get master back, then ask him to kill himself!”

“I don’t think master will do that.” Jiang Shuyi shook her head. Although it was weird that their master had become a young girl, master was still master. They had to acknowledge her even after she reincarnated.

Everything else could be cut off, but feelings could not.

Jiang Shuyi and Gu Lingfei had already discussed that they would help Lu Shu. Jiang Shuyi had revealed everything in order for this to go through.

But they did not expect that Lu Shu would flood the Sword Hut…

This was too much! Could they discuss this first?

“From Jiang Shuyi’s distress, +199!”

“From Gu Lingfei’s distress, +699!”

When Lu Shu saw that the Sword Hut had been settled, he happily ordered the slaves from the wealthy families to row over in their small boats and transport the Sword Hut disciples into the inner city.

He was not worried that there would be too many people in the inner city. After all, he still had many resources from the practitioner organizations on Earth. He could not finish using everything by himself.

Lu Shu was only worried that when the army led by the old King of Gods’ evil intentions attacked, they would not have enough strength to fend them off.

It was not an equal battle. The enemy had started preparing for over ten years. He had been waiting for a long time. On the other hand, Lu Shu only began training over two years ago.

A battle between over ten years of preparation versus two years of training. It would not be realistic to say that Lu Shu would definitely win. It would make him seem too arrogant.

But this did not matter. Lu Shu only wanted to know what they had prepared for him. He wanted to see if they sufficiently respected him.

There were numerous small rafts between the inner and outer cities. On the rafts were the disciples of the Sword Hut and the slaves from the wealthy families who were working hard. Zhang Weiyu, Li Liang, and Li Heitan laughed cheerily as they saw the Sword Hut enter the inner city. After all, they were strong support forces. They would definitely be happy.

Welcome, welcome, a warm welcome to all! Zhang Weiyu, Li Liang, and the rest almost wrote these words on their foreheads.

Gu Lingfei glanced at Zhang Weiyu. “The leader influences his troops. In the past, I thought that Ming Yueye and the rest were special. Now, I feel that you taught Ming Yueye the wrong things!”

Zhang Weiyu and the rest were not embarrassed. Instead, they were honored. After all, it was their own Great Lord. They did not mind. But suddenly, Zhang Weiyu felt that something was wrong. He realized that Lu Shu was dumbfounded.

The next moment, Lu Shu turned and looked at Gu Lingfei. “Who is Ming Yueye?”

Everyone was puzzled. They could hear that Lu Shu’s tone was urgent.

Gu Lingfei was confused. “Do you need to ask me who Ming Yueye is?”

Lu Shu looked at Zhang Weiyu and repeated himself. “Who is Ming Yueye?”

Zhang Weiyu hesitated. He carefully said, “Great Lord, Ming Yueye is the Big Brother of your Puppet Masters.”

When he finished speaking, everyone saw that Lu Shu had taken out a black pearl from nowhere. Then, he disappeared.

This scene was very mysterious. It was as if the name Ming Yueye had strong magical powers. If not, why did Lu Shu react that way?

Furthermore, what was that black pearl? Did Lu Shu use the black pearl to open the door to another space? Everyone was dumbfounded. Gu Lingfei was no exception.

Gu Lingfei turned and looked at Jiang Shuyi. She realized that he was also puzzled.

Someone curiously asked Zhang Weiyu, “Isn’t Big Brother dead? What other secrets are there?”

“Evidently, Big Brother is not dead.” Zhang Weiyu immediately spoke the truth. If Ming Yueye was dead, Lu Shu would not have reacted like that. Dead people were in no hurry for time!

After Lu Shu came to the Luniverse, he had always avoided confessing his identity. Furthermore, he did not have anyone suitable to explain common knowledge to him. For example, what were the Puppet Masters called?

Of course, this was not considered common knowledge. What if Lu Shu went to ask the master of a wealthy family, “What are the Puppet Masters called?”

The masters would also be puzzled. The Puppet Masters were the Puppet Masters.

“Puppet Master” was a title that represented the respect that the outside world had towards them. The Puppet Masters were highly respected. Few people remembered their real names, except masters like Gu Lingfei. Furthermore, when expressing rage towards certain people, their real name had to be used.

For example, when Lu Xiaoyu was not angry, she would call Lu Shu “Lu Xiaoshu”. But when she was angry, she would shout in a particularly loud and fierce tone, “Lu Shu!”. This was a common occurrence when people were angry…

At first, Zhang Weiyu was not willing to let Lu Shu know about some secrets. Later on, when Zhang Weiyu discovered Lu Shu’s identity, they did not talk much. Thus, Lu Shu was not willing to wait. He opened the black pearl. He hoped that he had not missed out on anything!
