Chapter 584: Revisiting the Darkness Kingdom

You Mingyu talked with the secret practitioners for a full two hours. After their meeting, the secret practitioners walked out of the room. When they saw Lu Shu, they each respectfully greeted Lu Shu. “Greetings, The Venerable.”

“Go do what you have to do.” Lu Shu nodded his head. The secret practitioners in this black market who did not know You Mingyu, the Lord, and the Venerable, were likely new to the black market.

The veterans in the Route 301 black market knew one thing. They could not provoke these three people. The Lord loved to covet small advantages, but had no ill intentions. The Venerable was often buoyant, but his words pierced the heart. You Mingyu seemed weak, but had murderous intent behind his smile.

When some new secret practitioners heard about this, they held their chest in shock. “Pierce the heart?! How?”

A group of people by the side started laughing. “He doesn’t literally pierce your heart. It means that his words are often quite harsh.”

“Oh...” The new practitioner heaved a sigh of relief. He had thought that the Route 301 black market was dangerous. There was even someone who liked to go around piercing other people’s hearts! But it seemed like that was not the case...

After the meeting, a group of secret practitioners ran to the toilet. You Mingyu followed closely behind them. This was the problem with meetings in the country. Meetings often lasted for two long hours. There were even meetings that lasted for a whole day. You had to have a strong bladder if you wanted to sit through everything.

Lu Shu also felt like going to the toilet after waiting for so long. He did not plan to make use of his water-type abilities to earn distress points. After all, You Mingyu knew that he possessed such abilities. He could not be too obvious while making use of them.

A group of people stood at the urinal, chatting as they went about their business. After they were done, they shook the remaining drops of urine off. But they all looked on helplessly as You Mingyu took out a piece of toilet paper from his pocket and wiped...

Lu Shu was confused. Was he so delicate.

The group of secret practitioners stood by You Mingyu. They could only stand in silence...

You Mingyu acted as if nothing had happened. He shouted to Lu Shu, “Let’s go. The thing I need to pass to you is still in my office.”

The secret practitioners could finally heave a sigh of relief after You Mingyu left. Lu Shu waited until there was no one around them before asking, “Is it from Heavenly King Nie?”

“It’s from Heavenly King Shi. It’s a USB,” said You Mingyu.

He returned to his office and opened the safe. He retrieved a USB from inside the safe and passed it to Lu Shu. Lu Shu was dumbfounded. It looked exactly like the USB he got from Anthony!

You Mingyu said, “This is the secret key to access the Darkness Kingdom. Each USB corresponds to one identity. We got our hands on this USB from an intelligence agent, so have no worries using it.”

As he spoke, You Mingyu passed a document to Lu Shu. “This contains information regarding that person’s identity. After all, the USB is connected to the person’s identity. It would be best if you are familiar with it. He is not active in the Darkness Kingdom, but there will be people who will recognize his ID.”

Lu Shu took out the document from the folder. He took a look and felt that something was wrong. There was something unique about this information. The person was as tall as Lu Shu, and his face shape was similar to that of Lu Shu’s.

He was an overseas Chinese businessman and secret practitioner called Li Teng. He sold low-end information from within the country overseas.

In reality, spies were not as lofty as they were depicted in movies. They could make money just selling a picture or a sentence. Even information regarding the country’s commodity prices could be exchanged for money.

Lu Shu looked at the information and asked, “Do outsiders not know that he has been captured by the Heavenly Network?”

You Mingyu laughed. “Looks like you already know. But Heavenly King Shi did not give me any other instructions, nor did he assign you any tasks.”

“Got it.” Lu Shu realized that the Heavenly Network had done most of the preparations for him. As long as he was willing to do it, he could start immediately.

“Actually, have you considered this before? We are connected to many people when we carry out work overseas. There is a chance that if one prospers, everyone prospers but if one suffers, everyone suffers. Perhaps someone will die because of one of your decisions. But if we approach it from another angle, the stronger the person in this role, the fewer the people who will be sacrificed.” You Mingyu softly said, “The task will not change. If you and I do not go, someone else will go, because that is our mission. But if an expert like you takes on the task, you would be able to save a few lives that would otherwise be sacrificed. Am I right?”

“Yes. I’ll take my leave first.” Lu Shu turned and walked away while waving goodbye.

You Mingyu stood behind Lu Shu in silence. He could understand what Lu Shu was thinking. Back then, his colleague, who was a planted agent, was sacrificed in order to help Lu Shu obtain information. You Mingyu also felt very remorseful.

It was easier said than done. No one could be completely cold-hearted while standing in that position.

Lu Shu did not have a computer at home. After he received a new USB, he bought a laptop. When he plugged in the USB, the Darkness Kingdom website popped up automatically.

Lu Shu had not seen this website for a long time. He first clicked on the trading page and found many strange items. All the items that the Darkness Kingdom officials had pinned on the page were fruits that could allow people to undergo awakenings. Some of the fruits were labeled to have awakening properties, while others were still unknown. Out of those whose awakening properties were known, the most common ones were still the elemental fruits. There were also a few unique ones like lightning fruits.

These fruits could only be exchanged with rare items. They did not accept cash or magical stones. From this, one would understand the large organizations’ attitude towards cash and magical stones when handling such first-rate items.

Lu Shu browsed the demands of these vendors. Most demanded for rare items of equal value. Some even specifically requested for mythical objects with weapon spirits.

He suddenly realized that he still had two fruits from the Salt Lake relics.

Back then, he had lied that the plant produced refresher fruit in order to give Chen Baili the refresher fruits. But in reality, this was not the case.

He had awakened his water-type abilities after eating one of the fruits, but he did not eat the rest. The core of the fruit he had eaten was still in the Seal of Lands.

All along, he had been hesitating whether he wanted to feed the fruits to Lu Xiaoyu. Back then, he had almost lost consciousness when the water-type abilities assimilated with him. This made Lu Shu understand that the fruit was not suitable for those with stronger abilities.

One had to proceed in sequence when awakening other types of abilities. When he ate a Class C fruit, the water-type abilities were so powerful that they directly advanced to Class C. People usually went in the order of Class F, Class E, Class D and Class C, but Lu Shu had skipped these levels. Thus, his body could not bear the assimilation process.

If he had eaten a Class B fruit, he probably would have died.
