988 The Death of Zhou Shu (1)

Linger stood on a thick tree branch and looked at Zhou Shu with her big watery eyes with an aggrieved expression.

Zhou Shu was furious. Youre aggrieved? Its useless to pretend to be pitiful. I have to teach you a lesson this time!

Linger, come down. Why are you standing so high?

Master, Linger cried out pitifully.

Dont pretend to be innocent. Tell me, what are you up to? Zhou Shu said. Didnt you learn your lesson last time? How long have you been back? Youre acting up again! If you dont give me a good reason this time, I will definitely punish you severely!

As he spoke, his tone softened.

He only had one daughter, and he really couldnt bear to teach her a lesson.

Master, I just want to learn how to forge. I just want to dig some ores. Is that okay? Linger asked with grievance.

Do you think Im stupid? Zhou Shu said angrily. If you want to learn how to forge, you can tell me. Ill get you whatever forging materials you want. Do you need to come out and mine?

Even if you came out to mine, why cant you tell me clearly? Why are you hiding it from me?

I was afraid that you wouldnt agree, Master. With Master Cang Hao protecting me, Ill be fine. Master Cang Hao is your incarnation, so hes more than capable of protecting me. I just dont want to cause you trouble.

Isnt it troublesome enough now? Do you think Ill believe you just because you say so? Zhou Shu said angrily. You know that Cang Hao is my incarnation, so how can I not know him? If it was so simple, the two of you wouldnt be so sneaky. Linger, Ill give you one last chance. Be good and tell me clearly what youre doing!

His expression became incomparably serious, making Lingers heart tremble.

Master!

If you still treat me as your master, dont hide it from me. Linger, I know you might have your reasons, but you have to understand that Im not an outsider. Theres no need for you to hide it from me. Im not an unreasonable person. If you have a reason to do something, I wont stop you.

Zhou Shu said solemnly, I dont want you to treat me as an outsider.

Im not! Linger shouted, about to cry. Master, dont force me. I can tell you anything, but not this.

She begged, Master, I really just want to forge a divine weapon. Can you stop asking?

Zhou Shu looked at Linger and frowned. Was there a need to hide forging a divine weapon from him?

You met me because Cang Hao has already taken the opportunity to gather the forging materials, right? Zhou Shu narrowed his eyes and looked at Linger. Very good. It seems that Ive become a clown and a villain.

No, thats not it. Linger couldnt help crying. Master, youre a good person. Youre the most important person in my heart. Please forgive me. Youll know about this. I promise Ill tell you, but not now.

Forget it. Zhou Shu closed his eyes and sighed. Youve grown up. Its normal for you to have some secrets. I shouldnt force you.

Zhou Shu shook his head dejectedly, turned around, and stepped into the air.

Master! Linger shouted at the top of her lungs with tears streaming down her face.

Without even turning around, he waved his hand with his back facing her, leaving a shadow before disappearing.

A moment later, a gust of wind blew past, and Cang Haos figure appeared beside Linger.

Tears had yet to dry on Lingers face as she choked and said, Master Cang Hao, are we doing wrong by hiding it from Master?

No, Cang Hao said in a deep voice. You didnt do anything wrong. Im him. I know exactly what hell do.

If you tell him about this, you wont be able to do it.

Dont worry. I know him. He wont blame you.

Really? Linger murmured.

Of course, Cang Hao said. Weve found everything. Lets begin. He doesnt belong to this era. There are many people waiting for him in his era.

Linger nodded vigorously. Thats right. We cant let Master stay here. If we do, hell only die.

She clenched her fists tightly, her face full of fighting spirit.

Zhou Shu left Linger and flew in the air, looking a little lonely.

Linger had grown up, and she was old enough to have her own ideas and was unwilling to share them with him.

He could understand, but it was still a little uncomfortable to accept.

Let them be. Zhou Shu shook his head with a bitter smile. They think I dont know what theyre doing. If I really want to know, do they think they can hide it from me?

Zhou Shu knew the Zhuang Zhou b.u.t.terfly Dream Technique. If he wanted to investigate, there were plenty of ways to find out.

Actually, he had a faint idea now. Linger becoming so strange was most likely related to the Heavenly Dao True Bead she had absorbed when she left the Origin World.

According to s.h.i.+ Changsheng, a Heavenly Dao True Bead contained all the profundities of a cultivation technique. In other words, after absorbing a Heavenly Dao True Bead, one would cultivate a cultivation technique to greater mastery.

This cultivation technique might not only be a Martial Dao cultivation technique. It might also be some kind of forging mystic technique.
