Chapter 1172: Biting Back

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

The leader turned back and saw the herd of cows. He was dumbfounded. His survival instincts forced him to get rid of any unnecessary actions. He subconsciously lay on the floor and played dead.

It would be very dangerous for him to lay on the floor, as the herd of cows would be able to trample him.

But he could not outrun them, nor could he defeat them. He had never seen such animals. He could only pray that they did not eat humans…

The leader was uncomfortable. He had shown off by saying that this path was safer. He had almost thumped his chest as he promised. His words had come back to bite him very quickly!

The cows were enormous and tall. To people of the Earth, a cow that was two storeys tall was like a black tower. Its presence alone could cause them to suffocate!

There was lightning inside the cows’ stomachs. Occasional flashes could be seen on the surface of the stomach.

The secret practitioners, who had been exuding a commanding presence in front of the ordinary people, either grabbed their heads and squatted down, or lay down and played dead. It was as if the cows would not be able to see them.

The people near the cows could even feel the loud and warm breath of the cows. They even felt slightly numb, as if they had been electrocuted!

How much had they evolved to reach this power? No one dared to test how strong these cows were!

But they did not see the gazes that the herd of cows exchanged with Lu Shu. Lu Shu was the most dumbfounded. He did not expect these cows to be able to find him every day. He did not expect them to ask him whether there would be any lightning either.

It was like when he was at home. Everyday, Lu Xiaoyu would ask him whether there was any stir-fried tomato and scrambled eggs!

What in the world?! Chen Zuan and Cheng Qiuqiao could fly too. Why did they not find them instead?

Hm? Lu Shu suddenly realized a problem. He looked at them. “Have you seen any other humans who cause lightning when they fly?”

The cows looked at him. “Only you. Hurry up.”

Lu Shu returned a look. “It’s inconvenient today. Maybe next time.”

The cows were slightly disappointed. “Sure.”

They exchanged glances without any difficulty. Their thoughts were transmitted to each other like voices. Lu Shu sighed with relief. He had finally chased the cows away.

Then, the herd of cows turned and ran off. They disappeared very quickly. There was the occasional sound of thunder from their stomachs.

What kinds of cows were these? For some reason, Lu Shu felt that they occupied a high position in the remains. They could come and go as they wished.

But Lu Shu also received a piece of information. Chen Zuan, Lu Xiaoyu, Coral, Cheng Qiuqiao, and the rest might not have been sent into this forbidden land. They were outside the forbidden land.

What would a Rank One expert do after coming into the remains? Go to a high place and look around!

Ordinary people would have to climb in order to see more, but Rank One experts could simply fly into the sky!

Thus, to these cows, he was the only human who could fly in the forbidden land. This meant that Lu Shu’s assumption that there was an area of the remains outside the forbidden land was true. Lu Xiaoyu and the rest were in that area.

Lu Shu heaved a sigh of relief. After all, the information he had obtained from the skeleton was that it was safer outside.

Suddenly, Lu Shu thought of something. Could he befriend this herd of cows and follow them around?

Perhaps the native creatures would know even more secrets about the remains.

But Lu Shu was not in a rush. He knew that the herd of cows would find him tomorrow. Lu Shu was very sure of this…

The thunderous sound of the cows leaving caused the secret practitioners to feel as if they had a new lease of life. They got up and watched the cows leave. One of them asked, “Did they leave just like that?”

Everyone had been playing dead. They did not even dare to open their eyes. Thus, they did not know what had happened.

The leader was the most fearful. As he watched the cows, he thought, what in the world? Had they come just to slap him in the face?

The leader could not think of another possibility. To him, the herd of cows had come to humiliate him…

“From Antell Stewart’s distress, +999…”

Lu Shu was amused. The herd of cows had come because of him. Thus, the distress points that the seventy secret practitioners had produced all belonged to him!

Lu Shu thought about it. When would the herd of cows come tomorrow? The herd of cows seemed rather kind. He might be able to blend in with them!

Lu Shu turned back and saw the female Practitioner who had been solicitous towards him. She was staring at Lu Shu. He realized that she had seen the herd of cows!

The herd of cows had come uninvited yesterday afternoon. The only people who had seen this were the people on Israel’s helicopter. They had talked about this before?

The herd of cows had come again. The female Practitioner was not foolish. She immediately associated it with Lu Shu!

Lu Shu smiled at her, but did not say anything.

As they continued to advance, the female Practitioner suddenly came to Lu Shu. She softly said, “I know that they are here for you. Am I right?”

Lu Shu declined to comment. He asked, “What do you think the secret of the remains they have been talking about is?”

The female Practitioner panicked. “I know that you don’t trust me, but I only want protection. If you are willing to protect me, I will keep my mouth shut. You can do whatever you want to do with me. Although Israel is good-looking, she will definitely not serve others.”

Lu Shu thought about it and said, “You are not in as much danger as you think you are. This foreign place has simply made you feel unsafe, so you desperately need someone to protect you. Don’t panic. Learn how to face danger correctly. Females have to love themselves more. On the one hand, I have rejected you because I cannot wait until the remains end. On the other hand, you are not very good-looking either…”

The female Practitioner said, “Do you think I am dirty? I am a virgin. I am very clean.”

Lu Shu was unhappy. “If you Virgos1 are clean, then am I dirty as a Sagittarius?”

The female Practitioner was dumbfounded.

Were they talking about the same thing?

Could they have a proper conversation? Why had the conversation become so infuriating?!

Lu Shu was thinking about it. He had always celebrated his birthday on the 12th of December. It was when he was sent to the orphanage. More accurately, he did not know his horoscope. He did not know his date of birth either.

The female Practitioner was silent. Then, she said, “You are different from them.”

“Indeed.” Lu Shu cheerily nodded his head.

“You have never touched Israel, right?” The female Practitioner asked.

Lu Shu was puzzled. He looked at the female Practitioner. “No. Why?”

The female Practitioner said with disdain, “Hmph! And you say that you’re a Sagittarius!”

Lu Shu was dumbfounded.
