Chapter 118: Chapter 89 Xu Shu: Fengxian, my son, why are you like this? (2/3, please subscribe)He was killed inexplicably. And it happened inside the safe zone city, instantaneously; Xu Shu found this hard to accept. Different from the chaos of the Wasteland, the safe zone was a place "with laws." "Where the Star Tower shines, truth pervades," this saying might not apply to the Wasteland which was too vast and chaotic, beyond the limits of human control. But, as long as you were inside the safe zone, this phrase was extremely effective. Sёarch* The ηovёlFire .net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. No one dared to kill someone in the safe zone, especially not so blatantly in broad daylight, using weapons similar to laser cannons. This was practically rubbing the entire Supervision Bureau’s face into the ground fiercely. Xu Shu thought carefully. "That orange seller, the moment she spoke, I died." "Does that mean, her speaking was a signal for someone to make their move?" "Alright, alright, I’d like to see today, who exactly wants to kill me." This was what truly baffled Xu Shu. It wasn’t his first time entering the safe zone. As someone born in the New Era, Xu Shu had grown up in this safe zone. For over a decade, he had lived a cautious and healthy life, having few friends and relatives, and had never offended anyone. Although he had killed several Transcendents recently, especially from the Salvation Army, he had been thorough and neat, leaving no trace for information leakage. Moreover... if it were people from the Salvation Army who had learned about it and wanted to kill him, why not do it in the Wasteland? Unless, they didn’t know where he was! So... "Could it be that my foster father is actually a well-hidden recluse with deeply-rooted enemies, now willing to trade death soldiers to completely eliminate my whole family? So, since they can’t find me in the Wasteland, they waited in the city?" Xu Shu stroked his chin. Firstly, it was hard to explain how his father, being so capable, still let his family live such a hard life, recluse or not, should have a better life, right? Even harder to explain, how did they coincidentally wait for him right at the city gate he entered? Did they really station people at every gate? That’s too... Wait a moment. Xu Shu’s eyes fell on the wall next door. There, he could hear Gu Pan’s even breathing reaching his ears. Xu Shu’s expression gradually became suspicious. "Could it be this woman’s backup plan? "These past few days she has always been superficially polite with me, actually making me lower my guard deliberately, so she could finish me off when we returned to the city?" Damn, it seemed possible! On this return, the only person who was with him all the way and could have known the information in advance was just Gu Pan. Moreover, Xu Shu knew this woman had a powerful background, she had the strength and motive to kill him. She herself had confessed that she wanted to steal the Curse Seal, perhaps her greedy ambitions had flared up again? Thinking this made him even more suspicious of Gu Pan. "Heh, I don’t need to guess, testing will reveal the truth! If it is really you, then you have chosen a path of death, and you will be done in by me!" "Tai Chu Scroll, initiate the journey mode!" [Checking current status...] [Check complete.] [You were trapped in the shelter’s basement, and you coldly walked out, directly kicking open Gu Pan’s room door, the cold icy wind wildly slapping her face.] ["Oh—brother, can’t you be a bit more polite when entering, knocking on the door or something, I am still a woman after all!" Gu Pan was woken by your noise.] ["Hmph!" You scoffed coldly, you saw her curling up in the blanket, a brief glimpse of smooth skin flickering and stirring, it was itchy at the sight, turns out she liked to sleep naked, unwinding that miraculous chest wrap while she slept.] [A young girl deep in her sleep, uncovered, just at the break of dawn, your blood was boiling, this was just like a perfect manga plot, you aggressively stepped forward, grabbing her blanket and flipping it off her.] [Good, it seems you finally came to your senses, are you planning to use the Kua Fu Chasing the Sun?] ["Sorry, Gu Pan, if you don’t want to die, it’s best not to struggle, you wouldn’t want me to punch you to death, would you?"] ["What about you?" Gu Pan looked at you with a dazed expression.] [You did not waste words; you just charged a punch, slamming it hard into her abdomen.] ["Ugh cough!" Gu Pan turned white-eyed from your blow, curving into a shrimp-like shape, and fainted on the spot.] [Dammit, leaving such a beauty unharmed to be taken by others? You understood discipline, not to waste a good opportunity; it was simply a crime against nature!] [You tied Gu Pan tightly to the sickbed, wrapping the ropes round and round, where did you learn such skills? Was your technique somewhat harsh yet pleasurable?] In the scene, Gu Pan appeared tightly bound, the image of her fair skin being constricted by each tight wrap. She was wrapped in a quilt, bundled up into a big ball, with her lush shoulders partly exposed in a deep V-cut and her body laid out unconscious, irresistibly tempting anyone to bury their head into her and take a deep breath. "..." "You filthy thing, I do have principles, okay?" Xu Shu was speechless. This Tai Chu Scroll was really filled with dirty thoughts, and yet it had the audacity to criticize him often. [Unromantic master, why didn’t you "glue" her up harshly this time! Perhaps you should reflect a bit, there might be something wrong with your brain, but no worries, Tai Chu Scroll has edited it for you.] [You don’t need to say anything, you locked this door, then went to lock the entire basement entrance, you’ve hidden Gu Pan away in a golden house.] [But you know you can’t afford to gamble, you turn around and head towards the city.] [Accelerating the throttle, cracking the whip, Lord of the Wasteland—you, Legendary Alien Warrior, Xu Shu, today you set out alone on your journey home.] [This time you’re not interested in the scenery, your old horse knows the way, it took you just over five hours to reach the D8B3 safe zone.] [It’s not even half past eleven.] [The garrison at the city gate hasn’t even changed shifts yet.] [You swipe your card to enter again, you enter the safe zone, and you find that the orange seller is also there.] [Aside from her skin being slightly worn from years of farming, she looked quite cute with a kind of rural widow charm, happily flipping through a comic book while sitting there.] ["Not coming back with Gu Pan this time, did she already use some method yesterday to alert the city, arranging for this orange seller to ambush me here?" You wonder, starting to doubt your own speculation.] [You decide...] [You sneakily hug the wall, gradually approaching from behind, vigilant of your surroundings, not finding any potential dangers.] [A portly woman hesitates by the orange stall, and the orange seller eagerly greets her, "Hey! Sister, check out these fresh tangerines, sweet and juicy, six for a kilo, ten for two kilos, why don’t you boldly try some?"] ["What the hell, didn’t you just tell me ten for a kilo? Damn it, locals get a discount, but you’re fleecing newcomers, right?"] [You’re stunned, such petty crooks, this certainly isn’t an act.] [You secretly sneak closer, and suddenly embrace her from behind, grabbing her heart with one hand at her big oranges—her heart, and covering her eyes with the other hand: "Hey! Guess who?"] ["Oh my~ how would I know! Are you Old Wang from next door? Or Brother Bin? Or Daddy, huh? Let go of your paws, we’re in the middle of the street!" Little Orang Lady got so scared her legs went soft.] [But her tone was softer, clearly, she had some unknown side hustle.] [You didn’t feel any sign of a strong person from her, under such circumstances, you could easily pull out her little oranges from the large ones.] [You are now completely certain, your death had nothing to do with this orange lady.] ["Then who the hell killed me?"] [You couldn’t help but look up, looking towards the sky, only to see the distant Star Tower piercing the clouds, stretching into the sky, giving a strangely comforting feeling, even you felt quite comforted.] [You felt comforted too soon! You see a flash of lightning above the Star Tower.] [You died, this journey ends, calculating...] [Rating: Oh yes, now that you’ve seen it with your own eyes, you were struck dead by the Star Tower, it’s such a bad thing! And you, knowing full well about the danger, still charged towards it, a real fool seeking death, but since you’re looking for death, why not make it simpler, Master?] [You obtained an artifact: Self-cutting Meridians (Epic)] [Self-cutting Meridians (Epic): Yep yep yep] [Today’s attempts: 1/3] —— Huh??? Wait, so it was the Star Tower that killed me? Xu Shu widened his eyes, looking towards the east—although there was just a wall in front of him. "Does the Star Tower even emit electricity?" "... I’ve lived for over a decade, and this is the first time I’ve seen it!" "But why would it do that?" Looking at the Tai Chu Scroll’s inventory, the [Self-cutting Meridians (Epic)] *2 was rather glaring. Xu Shu fell completely silent. Really damn. Star Tower... Star Tower is a relic connected to Lie Zhenzi. So you’re saying Lie Zhenzi wanted to kill me? Without him, humans would’ve been wiped out by monsters long ago, the glorious humanity, the great sage’s left behind holy relic [Lie Zhenzi] wants to kill me??? Damn, then why the hell am I even alive. Jumping off, brothers. ——
