Lu Shu got goosebumps and threw the disintegrated tree branch away. He did not understand how the person managed to disintegrate the tree branch while not hurting his palm.

The young man in a black ceremonial dress was standing upright but looked relaxed. He looked as if he blended into the surroundings. With a smile, he did not look out of place and his presence did not give anyone stress.

Lu Shu patted the remains of the tree branch away and asked, “Who are you?”

“Didn’t you already figure out who I am?” The young man smiled and said with his hands clasped in the baggy sleeves. “Don’t you think that this set of clothes is mysterious? Also, I had the ability to walk behind you without getting your attention. So… Who do you think I am?”

Lu Shu was silent for a moment. “Do you really have to brag?”

The young man was speechless.

“From Wen Zaifou’s distress points, +199!”

Indeed, Lu Shu was correct. He was indeed Wen Zaifou, the Lord of Heaven.

However, Lu Shu did not understand why Wen Zaifou appeared here? Was it suitable for a character like the Lord of Heaven to appear in the King Lu Mountain?

To be honest, Lu Shu wanted to enter the Sword Hut humbly and leave after he found the way home. Yet, he saw the Lord of Heaven now…

Fortunately, Lu Shu did not say that or Zhang Weiyu would refute immediately. Whether Lu Shu was humble or not, he should know it the best…

However, Wen Zaifou did not look angry and was still smiling. “I should have only completed my training three months later, but I came out earlier because the Wei Wu Army messed up my plans. Nevertheless, I still have a question for you. By right, the Black Feather Army retreated because of the Wei Wu Army. Therefore, you guys should claim the credit for it. So why are you guys still escaping?”

At this moment, Wen Zaifou smiled even brighter. “Or rather, the question should be, where can you guys escape to? Let me introduce myself. I am Wen Zaifou, the Lord of Heaven of the Northern Region. However, I prefer to be addressed as something else.”

After that, Wen Zaifou suddenly turned and looked at Zhang Weiyu. “How are you?”

Zhang Weiyu greeted Wen Zaifou formally. “How are you, Mister Wen?”

Lu Shu was stunned. Mister Wen? It was strange to call the Lord of Heaven “Mister Wen”.

Wen Zaifou smiled as he saw the confusion on Lu Shu’s face. “Do you not know their identities? Or have you figured it out but don’t dare to say it? Why? You don’t seem to be a timid person. After all, you have collaborated with the gambling dens in the palace and made so much profit.”

Lu Shu was annoyed. However, he did not refute it when he thought about Wen Zaifou’s capability…

At this moment, Zhang Weiyu said, “Mister Wen was the instructor of the Imperial Dragon Soldiers. Therefore, we call him Mister Wen as a form of respect.”

Lu Shu gasped in shock. He had already guessed who Zhang Weiyu and the rest were. After all, Liu Yizhao did not hide anything. He only refused to mention it intentionally.

However, Lu Shu definitely did not expect Wen Zaifou to be the instructor of the Imperial Dragon Soldiers. That meant that he was probably the closest person to the King of Gods or he could not possibly have become a Lord of Heaven?

At this moment, Lu Shu suddenly thought about why the old King of Gods placed the other experts such as Zhang Weiyu and Liu Yizhao in the North Region?

However, what bothered Lu Shu the most was whether Wen Zaifou would misunderstand because Zhang Weiyu appeared beside him.

However, he heard Wen Zaifou say laughingly to Zhang Weiyu, “The few of you brats are finally willing to leave the town. Initially, I asked you guys to leave to help me and you guys said that you won’t leave no matter what. Why did a military accident change your minds?”

Zhang Weiyu frowned. “Don’t tell me you left the Black Feather Army behind because you wanted to force us to leave the town.”

Wen Zaifou raised his eyebrows. “Haha, why would I do something so childish?”

Lu Shu had a strong premonition that Zhang Weiyu probably made the correct guess! Lu Shu started to feel that something was amiss, but he could not pinpoint the exact problem.

Wen Zaifou shook his black ceremonial dress and said to Zhang Weiyu, “I have enough soldiers for you to train. However, you guys insisted on training the Wei Wu Army and wasted your energy. It is not bad for a bunch of bandits to be trained to this standard.”

Zhang Weiyu said calmly, “Mister Wen is good at training soldiers, why are you asking us to train them since you can do it yourself?”

Wen Zaifou suddenly widened his eyes. “I am already the Lord of Heaven! You are asking a Lord of Heaven to train the soldiers? I can’t do that, it’s too embarrassing!”

Zhang Weiyu was speechless.

“This young man…” Wen Zaifou looked at Lu Shu. “He is…?”

“No.” Zhang Weiyu shook his head and started to exchange gazes with Wen Zaifou.

“I don’t think he is either. That person is so charismatic and it is indeed a coincidence for both of you to meet,” Wen Zaifou nodded and said.

Lu Shu suddenly felt that although Wen Zaifou had been in isolation, he seemed to know a lot about what was going on outside. Moreover… Why was the Lord of Heaven so cocky?! Was that how a Lord of Heaven should act?

To be honest, Lu Shu thought that the Lord of Heaven should be scheming and have great foresight. However, thinking about it now…

Wen Zaifou took a look at Lu Shu and immediately figured out what he was thinking about. He suddenly said, “Some people spend their whole lives trying to get to this position, of course, they are used to scheming. However, I am different. I made use of my real skills to get to this point. Do you know what is real skills, I don’t negotiate with others.”

Lu Shu was speechless. Was it really alright for someone like Wen Zaifou to be the Lord of Heaven?

Lu Shu saw this and laughed. He decided to not be involved in this situation. “Then forget it, I will not escape. However, why did you, the Lord of Heaven, follow us to this side of the mountain? To give us a reward?”

“That’s right.” Wen Zaifou nodded. “How about giving Wei Bei Pass, Li Yang Pass, Guang Liao City, Nangeng City, Yun An City to you guys?”

Lu Shu replied, “No thanks.”

Guarding five fortresses with only 5000 people? Lu Shu was not stupid enough to do that.

Wei Wu Army was a united and powerful group. Once they separate, they would not be as powerful.

At this moment, twelve people flew over from the North. Lu Shu saw how Wen Zaifou’s expression changed and he immediately became serious.

The twelve individuals knelt in front of Wen Zaifou. “Congratulations for completing your training, Lord of Heaven.”

“Were we really going to lose all ten fortresses if I didn’t complete my training?” Wen Zaifou asked calmly.

One of the individuals said in fear, “Now that we have regained possession of most of the fortresses, please give us another chance, Lord of Heaven.”
