Chapter 798: Ruthless Official You Mingyu
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The competition between the seven major Cultivation Colleges, which they had started planning for, since a long time ago, was canceled just like that. The lessons returned to normal, as if the competition had never occurred. The students were all restricted within the classroom by an invisible force and had no choice but to attend lessons. This was because Zhong Yutang was worried that some students would recklessly go to the Changbai Mountains.
This was not disaster relief. This was a real war. Thus, discipline was of utmost importance.
But Lu Shu had not expected a war to take place so quickly. As he was preparing to go home, You Mingyu hurriedly left the Luo Shen Cultivation College. When Lu Shu asked him where he was going, he did not reply.
The car traveled for about ten meters before turning back. You Mingyu alighted from the car and calmly looked at Lu Shu. “If I was as strong as you are, I would already be at the Changbai Mountains. Of course, I can understand that you may have some difficulties that are hard to talk about. But… people are dying there. Yesterday, Nalan Que and Li Yixiao killed two Class B experts who had been hiding in the mountains. But Nalan Que was ambushed and was slashed at the waist. She almost died. Lu Shu, when will I be able to call you Heavenly King Lu? I look forward to that day.”
Lu Shu was silent. You Mingyu left before waiting for him to answer.
But Lu Shu saw that You Mingyu was full of murderous intent. He had brought 100 men with him. The road ahead would not be easy.
At that moment, a cleansing had begun at one of the areas under the protection of the Heavenly Network. You Mingyu came to the black market near Route 301 and sent orders to lock up the entire place. Afterwards, he started to take attendance!
One by one, people started to step out. They might be old secret practitioners or young men, but no one was spared. Everyone was taken away. As for where they were taken to, no one knew.
At the same time, it was as if the same thing was happening all around the country. After a year of peace, the Heavenly Network suddenly raised their daggers. Their reasoning against outsiders was the same. They had betrayed their home country.
Treason!
At first, everyone was worried that the Heavenly Network had gone crazy. But now, they understood that the people they had captured were spies who had been hiding in the country!
Furthermore, the Heavenly Network already knew about their identity, but did not capture them. Now that a war was about to happen, they no longer hesitated. They had to cleanse their territories!
Lu Shu had high authority. He could even see whether the missions to capture these spies had been successful or not. He knew that You Mingyu and Zhong Yutang were very efficient. Either that, or all the persons-in-charge of the departments in the Heavenly Network already knew that this day would eventually come and had done their preparations.
Perhaps in the past, they wanted to keep the spies who spread fake news. But they no longer cared about this now. They would cleanse the entire country. They could not allow them to affect internal affairs!
Wanted lists started to appear. There were people from many organizations. As of the present, they had all been successfully captured.
As Lu Shu watched this unfold through the information system, he suddenly felt as if a war was really upon them.
This did not just happen in China. Overnight, mutinies happened in various organizations overseas. These organizations had wanted to come to the Changbai Mountains, but after a mutiny, a new leader rose up. There was no news from these organizations since then.
Some said that the Heavenly Network was definitely behind this, but the Heavenly Network had never confessed to anything. It was as if the internal affairs of these organizations had nothing to do with them.
Although only small organizations were affected, but the entire realm of cultivation could see the Heavenly Network’s determination.
The Heavenly Network was still silently killing people.
Many years later, someone named this day the Day of Blood. This was the night when the realm of cultivation was thrown into confusion. The Heavenly Network was like the Grim Reaper, who wore black and took away the lives of spies. There were also many tragedies that had suddenly occurred overseas.
It was as if someone had secretly planted a mine below the realm of cultivation, and that mine had exploded today.
Over 1000 Practitioners had died today. No one had thought that the Heavenly Network’s counterattack would be so cruel.
Suddenly, everyone realized that the Heavenly Network had always had the courage to carry out total destruction.
You Mingyu stood at the gates of the black market and counted the practitioners with a dark expression on his face. You Mingyu, who was typically kind, was wearing the black Heavenly Network uniform. He was like a ruthless official.
The secret practitioners had never seen this You Mingyu. No one knew how many people he had killed overseas before returning to the Heavenly Network.
Suddenly, a secret practitioner ran towards the highway in a flurry.
You Mingyu sent out a scarlet red flying sword that pierced through the heart of the secret practitioner. The sharp sound produced by the flying sword as it flew through the air made the others uncomfortable. The scarlet red light in the dark night seemed particularly frightening.
The past one year had been very peaceful. The Heavenly Network sheathed their swords. But the secret practitioners were very clear that there were definitely many more people like You Mingyu in the Heavenly Network.
You Mingyu looked at the secret practitioners and smiled. “You will be rewarded for reporting spies. One magical stone for every spy reported. Of course, you must have reliable evidence.”
The white lamp shone down on You Mingyu. His teeth were pearly white.
The Heavenly Network was furious. They would use blood to warn the unlawful.
Thousands of secret practitioners and the large organizations had planned to enter the Changbai Mountains today. This was only the first batch. Top organizations, such as the Department of Faith Theory, the Phoenix Society, the Danke, and the Pledge had not arrived.
The Red Sparrows and the secret practitioners entered the Changbai Mountains. There might not be danger. The secret practitioners were not dumb. With their morals, they did not believe that the Heavenly Network would kill so many people at once.
But before they had even entered the mountains, they heard about what had happened elsewhere. For a period of time, no one could confidently say, “Yes, we have a lot of people. The Heavenly Network would definitely think about humanitarianism. They can’t kill so many people, right?”
On the other hand, the Red Sparrows did not dare to take the risk. They would wait until the Department of Faith Theory and the Phoenix Society arrived before making a decision.
Only then would the large organizations be able to fight with the Heavenly Network. The Red Sparrows alone would not be enough.
The Heavenly Network’s determination to kill had driven the secret practitioners out of the Changbai Mountains, but the large organizations remained unmoved. Some had obtained information that the sword formation was Nie Ting’s sword. What was hidden in the canyon. Why did Nie Ting destroy his own sword to create a sword formation?
The large organizations recollected themselves, but they stuck with their original plan. If they entered from all directions, the Heavenly Network might carry out a mass destruction. But if their objective was just the Changbai Mountains, they did not believe that Nie Ting would perish with them!
Furthermore, they were waiting for the controller to make another move. An outstanding controller would not give up here.
