Chapter 221: 221?The Poor life of training in secret
When Lu Shu shouted the name Yu Qian, the purple gourd started to suck magical energy from his body.
Just at this moment, before the strength of the gourd could enter Lu Shuâs body to draw energy, Lu Shuâs celestial map was jolted awake!
It was just like in the past when Lu Shu would train the yinyang kinship of the three. Even before external energy could be amassed, the celestial map would suppress itâŚ
Li Dian and Lu Shu were both confused. The gourd didnât have any reaction!
The purple light didnât even appearâŚ
Only people who understood magical equipment truly understood that the light wasnât emitted by the magical equipment, but it was just a layer of soft glow.
âWhatâs wrong? Arenât you a practitioner?â Li Dian was surprised. He could use it when it was in his arms, why did it stop working when it went over to Lu Shu?
Coughs, Lu Shu cleared his throat. Only he himself knew where the problem wasâŚ
It seemed like in order for him to use this magical relic, he had to treat it like the spears. He had to use his own celestial energy to direct the item instead of waiting for it to use its energy.
The celestial map was really too commanding.
âFrom Li Dianâs distress, +233!â
âDefinitely not. Any name works as long as you yourself believe that itâs a real name!â Li Dian said with a black face.
Lu Shu pretended to be dissatisfied, âYour relic isnât easy to use. Lower the price slightly⌠This only works occasionally, wouldnât I be paying for my life if I use it in a fight?â
âFrom Li Dianâs distress, +88âŚâ
Li Dian couldnât understand why âYou try again!â
âGuo Degang!â No effect.
âFrom Li Dianâs distress, +333âŚâ
âCao Yunjin!â
âFromâŚ+444.â
âMiao Fu!â
âWang Sheng!â
âSong Xiaobao!â
Even after trying so many times, there was no effect. In contrast, the distress points generated from Li Dian was quite immense. Lu Shu felt that he should try a few more times just for the distress points!
At this moment, Li Dian was frustrated. Could it be that only his family could use this relic?
But he dared not get another person to try it. He was a fugitive avoiding the world and it was tough to even encounter an opportunity to trade for magical stones. He didnât want to risk everything by blowing this up. Eventually, it led to this.
Even at the start when Lu Shu asked him if he possessed anything real, he said no. If Lu Shu hadnât revealed his identity as a member of the heavenly network, he would still be keeping the gourd to himself.
Li Dian thought for a long time before defending himself, âYou saw it just now when I used it. This is definitely not my problem! At the very least, it can be used! Iâll give it to you a little cheaper, four magical stones, no lower! Any less and I canât break through!â
Lu Shu thought gleefully. This was such a great bargaining method he came up withâŚ
He confirmed once more, âIt works as long as I shout someoneâs actual name? No matter the volume?â
âYes!â
âThatâs not right. The gourd in the journey to the west worked when Sun Wukong, Wu Sunkong or Kong Sunwu was shouted! Yours is a fake! Lower the price!â
Li Dian hesitated, âI canât lower it anymore!â
âFrom Li Dianâs distress, +288!â
Looking at Li Dianâs determination, it seemed like any less wouldnât allow him to breakthrough to class E.
He suddenly thought of a problem. Could this relic be used with his ability to obtain someoneâs real name? Woah damn, then wouldnât this be very useful to him?
He just didnât know how effective this gourd would be when used against other people. It just didnât seem too reliableâŚ
This unreliable feeling wasnât because it was ugly or other factors, it was merely because it was too cheapâŚ
In the past, everyone would think that itâs better for something to be cheaper, as itâs more value for money.
But slowly, some people started to suspect the quality of cheap items. Is it genuine? Is it good? Or if there were any problems.
And for most of the time, these suspicions were⌠confirmed to be true.
Itâs just that Lu Shu felt that the difference in value between magical stones and magical instruments was too great. Magical stones were useless to him but magical instruments, on the other hand, could be used by him right now.
Even if itâs a lowly magical instrument, it was new and fresh. After all, with his rank, he could receive 3 magical stones next month.
Lu Shu retrieved four magical stones and handed them over to Li Dian. A maniacal expression appeared on Li Dianâs face, he had probably been dreaming about magical stones for a long time.
It had to be said that since the heavenly network was in control, secret practitioners such as Li Dian were really pitiful. Thinking in Li Dianâs shoes, Lu Shu felt that he wouldnât even dare search for a plot of magically rich land for himself to train in fear of being exposedâŚ
Li Dian passed the gourd to Lu Shu and disappeared amongst the crowd as if he was afraid to lose the 4 magical stones he had just received.
âWho knows how long he can train secretly for? Even if he has magical stones, his rate of improvement is really too slow,â Lu Shu shook his head as he watched Li Dian disappear into the crowd.
He really wanted to see what exactly were the effects of this gourd, but it wasnât the right time now. Lu Shu removed his jacket in a secluded corner and then removed the t-shirt that was acting as his maskâŚ
Coincidentally, he bumped into Yuan Liangtuo and his party just as he walked out. It was an incident of two enemies chancing upon each other on a narrow road. Yuan Liangtuo and his party knew that Lu Shu was indeed stronger than them, which was why their eyes exuded more envy than hate.
âAre you following us!â Yuan Liangtuo suddenly remembered what he said about the black market on the train. This Lu Shu didnât even have friends or family here, how could he know about the black market on the very first day of being here?
Lu Shuâs eyes lit up the moment he saw this group of people. It would really be inappropriate for him to try his new instrument on strangersâŚ
He laughed amicably, âShop well, thereâs quite a lot of good stuff here.â
Neither admitting to it nor denying it.

Lu Shu and Yuan Liangtuoâs party merely brushed shoulders and distanced themselves. As he was arriving at the alley, Lu Shu leaped up to the roof from a secluded corner. He felt that it was best not to be seen by Zhu Bishi who was keeping watch at the alley.
âLu Shu, is there anything fun inside⌠Why did you wrinkle my shirt so much!â Lu Xiaoyu whined.
âCoughs, I traded a gem out. Weâll try it later! I even sold a magical stone. We can go for some roasted mutton and mutton soup tomorrow! Apparently, the muttonhead soup is not bad at Xijing City. A light layer of oil would float atop the clear soup and the mutton inside is pure and tastyâŚâ Lu Shu laughed.
Lu Xiaoyuâs drool almost flowed out of her mouth, âAre we going tomorrow morning?â
âYeah!â Lu Shu heaved a sigh of relief from his heart. She finally changed the topic from her wrinkled shirt.
