Chapter 225: 225?Each with his own axe to grind (Part 2)

What a small world. Even Li Dian wouldn’t have thought that he would meet his buyer in this travel tour.

To be honest, Li Dian’s face was previously covered and even his hairstyle and clothes were different from now.

When Lu Shu first saw him, he only felt a sense of familiarity and would never have thought of his identity if not for the silk cloth.

At that point in time, Lu Shu was also wearing a cap and used Lu Xiaoyu’s t-shirt to cover his face. The jacket he wore was also kept inside the pink luggage ever since and the magical gourd was hidden inside the seal of lands.

Even when they were headed towards a remote corner, Li Dian was walking in front and never looked back at Lu Shu. This meant that he couldn’t have noticed Lu Shu’s walking stance and so Lu Shu wasn’t worried about being identified.

As of now, Lu Shu was in the dark while Li Dian was out in the open…

Although the magical gourd was definitely a steal for 4 magical stones to Lu Shu, it could even coordinate with his system.

But the problem was Li Dian’s intention to scam him! If this toy had some other useless ability, Lu Shu would be really pissed.

If not for the coincidental encounter, Lu Shu would have let the matter rest. It wasn’t worth the effort to find someone whose face he didn’t even know of.

But since they met, there must be some kind of punishment…

At this point in time, Li Dian had just achieved the initial stages of Class E. Having training resources definitely made a huge difference. If not for the 4 magical stones, his progress would have been much slower.

Lu Shu was suddenly curious if Li Dian was really here on a holiday!

All along, Li Dian gave off a mysterious vibe with his magical item heirloom and even a silk cloth that could conceal magical waves.

Furthermore, Li Dian had his own secret training method which gave him strength exceeding that of normal humans.

Lu Shu couldn’t stop pondering about the mystery surrounding this person and before long, he even started to doubt his true purpose in this travel tour. Lone travelers were not common.

Of course, traveling alone could still be possible and Lu Shu decided to continue observing.

On the other hand, Li Dian was smiling from ear to ear as he greeted the travel agency’s tour guide politely, probably due the joy of his training’s breakthrough.

After all, breaking through a tough situation that had been dragged on for too long would result in happiness. Even for Lu Shu, when the form of his chi finally transitioned from clouds to rain, he was happy about it for a long time despite the pain he went through…

But even during this happy occasion, Li Dian had no clue that he was being targetted by Lu Shu…

…

This tour followed a strict quota of 20 pax and never exceeded that. It was claimed that this number was ideal.

Soon after, all the tourists had arrived. Almost half of them were middle-aged people who already knew one another and it seemed like they were all from an organization in Qingzhou.

There were 4 college students, 1 male, and 3 females. From their conversations, the boy had just graduated from high school and was one of the girl’s younger brother.

The 3 girls were also nothing special. They were dressed decently but the brands were not anything too expensive. But it was undeniable that college girls had learned to put on makeup and all looked ravishing.

Initially, Lu Shu was rather delighted at the sight of the 3 girls.

But in the end, Lu Shu realized that he couldn’t understand their conversations and Lu Xiaoyu was also excited, commenting about which lipstick, foundation, and mascara were the best. Lu Shu felt like they were from a different world…

Lu Shu turned to Lu Xiaoyu, “When you’re in college, I’ll send you cosmetics.”

He thought that this would make Lu Xiaoyu happy but instead, Lu Xiaoyu exclaimed arrogantly, “I don’t need it!”

Lu Shu was so confused. Girls are really complicated creatures….

The two of them stood at the side quietly as they observed the others starting to mingle but they had no intention to join in.

In the first place, they both thought of human interaction as a burden.

However, even though they didn’t join in, the 3 girls noticed Lu Xiaoyu and excitedly headed over.

“Are you guys from this tour group?” A girl wearing lipstick and a weird looking black necklace greeted them politely. However, the necklace complemented her overall outfit.

Lu Shu smiled and nodded, “That’s right.” Lu Shu was stunned at the other party’s medium pitched voice.

“Hello, you can call me Shu Li. Is this squirrel a rumored magical pet? Are you guys… Daoyuan students?” The girl named Shu Li asked.

Initially, Li Dian had not noticed Lu Shu and company as they were too low-profile. But upon hearing the conversation, he turned around and saw little fury which put him on his toes. Daoyuan Class and Heavenly Network were the two groups of people he wanted to avoid at all cost.

In fact, the Daoyuan class was the Heavenly Network’s reserve troops.

Lu Shu shook his head, “We’re not from Daoyuan Class. My place is a magical land and it mutated there. But the magical land was sold afterward.”

Lu Shu said this with a poker face as he didn’t want to expose his daoyuan student identity in front of Li Dian.

With a flick of his wrist, a small bronze compass fell into his palms as he took a peek and saw the needle pointing towards the North. He finally calmed down.

Shu Li asked curiously, “What’s its name?”

“Little Fury,” Lu Shu replied gleefully.

Shu Li was stunned for a moment, what a weird accent…

At this moment, the boy traveling with the girls shouted, “big brother, the tour guide is calling for you.”

Shu Li replied without hesitation, “Okay, I’m coming.”

He then smiled at Lu Shu, “I’ll take my leave first. We can chat later.”

This took Lu Shu by surprise, what did that boy call Shu Li?! Brother?!

No wonder he had a medium pitched voice!

What the…

What’s with the current society?! Is differentiating male from female so hard?!

He was suddenly reminded of a friend of his… Jiang Shuyi…

But Lu Shu was rather certain of Jiang Shuyi’s gender due to his Adam’s apple and lack of chest…

“Hahahaha,” Lu Xiaoyu was giggling over Lu Shu’s distress.

Lu Shu frowned, “What’s so funny? Tell me, what exactly are you laughing at?”

“Lu Shu, your head is steaming.”

“I’m not!”

“Hahahaha!”

Little Fury was also chirping happily when Lu Shu glanced over, “Are you done with your homework?!”

Little Fury, “…?”

There were already 16 people in this your and the tour guide looked at his watch, “Let’s be patient and wait for 10 more minutes before setting off. We shouldn’t let those late people affect the rest!”

A middle-aged woman commented, “That’s right, youngsters these days have no sense of urgency!”

Lu Shu was still secretly observing Li Dian. He felt that Li Dian’s motive in this tour wasn’t so simple and this feeling was purely generated from the previous impression of him.

At this moment, Lu Shu sensed a wave of magical energy and immediately checked it out. It was Yuan Liangtuo!

F*ck, what are the chances? Are the 4 of them joining the tour?!

Lu Shu suddenly had an idea. Quietly, he brought Lu Xiaoyu and walked over to Li Dian’s side.

The bronze compass in Li Dian’s palm gave off a mild vibration and he immediately looked down. The needle was pointing towards the 4 teenagers walking over!

He was shocked but kept his composure. When he looked up again, he noticed the leader of the 4 teenagers staring at him!

Li Dian was taken aback, what’s going on?! Does he know me?! That doesn’t make sense.

Lu Shu was still standing behind Li Dian but turned his gaze to elsewhere. On the other hand, Yuan Liangtuo was annoyed just at the sight of Lu Shu.

Forget it, he can’t possibly deal with this youngster. Previously, he was too focused on the rank of the military identification and didn’t take a good look at Lu Shu’s name.

He wanted to turn around and leave but they already paid for the tour, amounting to over 12k dollars!

But seeing that Lu Shu was pretending to not recognize them, Yuan Liangtuo let out a sigh of relief. Let’s just leave it as it is!

Li Dian was still confused as he looked over again to confirm. However, Yuan Liangtuo’s expression was back to normal and was reporting to the travel agency.

What is this situation?!

Lu Shu was rather disappointed. Daoyuan students had a stronger physique than the normal which was why they recovered so quickly from the neck twisting.

But as it seemed, this tour was going to be interesting…

Li Dian, Yuan Liangtuo and company, Lu Shu and Lu Xiaoyu all had the own motives in this tour. Who knew what was going to happen in the next 9 days…
