Spare Me, Great Lord! Chapter 376

Chapter 376: 376
It was Lu Shu’s first time at a beach . Although he had seen bikini beauties in the movies, it was still a far cry from real life experience .
Li Yixiao’s eyes were almost popping out from his eye sockets . He mumbled, “Class A, pass… This Class C is not bad . Eh? There’s a Class D! Oh my goodness, Class E!”
If you think his sentence was upside down, you probably did not get Li Yixiao’s underlying meaning .
At 2pm, the three followed the purely Chinese tour group back to Pattaya . Lu Shu and Lu Xiaoyu sat at the rear of the yacht . As she cast her look outside from behind the railings, Lu Xiaoyu’s little face looked just adorable . It was her first time to see the sea .
But Lu Shu was unable to concentrate . Despite her low-profile appearance, the Class C’s magic waves could never escape Lu Shu’s senses .
Lu Shu traced back the energy and saw a girl with a gauze scarf flying over her shoulders . Her bikini was fully covered by her scarf and only had her slender thighs revealed .
Probably sensing his stare, she shot a glance at Lu Shu but quickly lowered her head again, as though she suffered from seasickness .
Can Practitioners and Metahumans get seasickness? Lu Shu was unsure too .
He had recalled his flying daggers from the snow mountain the moment they reached the beach . On usual days, the daggers could be released to grind mountain rocks but now, they had to be on standby anytime .
The original mountain was already nearly half gone, and the daggers only needed a little more time to totally flatten it . But now, it was no time to worry about that . The top priority was a safe return .
The girl seated at the boat’s bow probably had yet to realize that Lu Shu had his guard up against her .
Lu Xiaoyu asked, “Lu Shu, what are you looking at?”
Lu Shu whispered, “Seeing them dressed in worn out clothes, I guess they really need some help…”
“Lu Xiaoyu distress level, +399!”
It was only a thirty minutes’ sail from the island to Pattaya . During the entire journey, the girl remained low-key and kept her head low . Lu Shu and Lu Xiaoyu exchanged a look of confirmation after they got ashore . Then, Li Yixiao brought them to a residential place on a local three wheeler .
As stowaways, the three of them had nowhere to stay but for a safety shelter prepared by the Heavenly Network . Li Yixiao was in high spirits as the three wheeler zigzagged along the Pattaya streets, “Did you see the pedestrian street just now? At night… hehehe…”

It was the most popular destination of Pattaya’s nightlife . There, you would be greeted warmly by many pretty girls in skimpy clothing with their apparent hospitality .
Lu Xiaoyu had already secretly blacklisted Li Yixiao . It was a mistake to let Lu Shu come to Thailand . No, Li Yixiao’s company was the mistake .
When they went past a palace-looking building, Li Yixiao raised his eyebrows at Lu Shu, “Wanna know what place this is?!”
“Performance center?” Lu Shu replied ambiguously .
“Performances are held at the concert hall, not here . At night… hehehe…” Li Yixiao’s laugh was mysterious .
Lu Xiaoyu chided him at once, “Don’t you need to train? Are you a Practitioner? Why are you so messed up?”
Li Yixiao replied lightheartedly, “I still have a long way to go till CCB . Why the hurry?”
Lu Shu froze for a second, “What’s CCB?”
“Completion of Class B, of course! Short form, CCB . You didn’t know?” Li Yixiao pointed the finger of scorn at him .
Excuse me? Lu Shu’s face darkened, how did you come up with such a crude name for a title this prestigious?! As a Heavenly King, could you please have some brains?!
However, Lu Xiaoyu recognized the palace, which she had drawn out for Lu Shu before . It was an entertainment club, and it harbored the organization they were looking for, who were the operators of the place .
Lu Shu identified it too at once . Despite Lu Xiaoyu’s horrible drawing skills, her sketch of the white spiky top of the building was absolutely accurate . Lu Shu turned to her, “Lu Xiaoyu, you are a genius painter . “
Lu Xiaoyu laughed, “Of course!”
The organization was secretly engaged in human trafficking under the cover of an entertainment club . However, their stealthy approach was not due to their incompetence, but their prudence in hiding away from experts upholding justice . Across the world, there were many Metahumans who were not solely after fame and fortune .
The safety shelter was a far cry from Lu Shu’s expectations . Instead of a covert, shabby room, it was rather spacious and was even equipped with a swimming pool .
It was not that the Heavenly Network was very rich, though . In fact, it was rather common in Thailand . Coupled with the cheap housing there, one could get a small villa with merely 10 billion yuan even in its capital, Bangkok .
As soon as the sky had darkened, Li Yixiao could not wait to hurry the kids to bed and sneaked out by himself…

After he was gone, Lu Xiaoyu asked, “When do we start?”
“Tonight!” Lu Shu had made up his mind, “We cannot be sure whether anyone knows or will know that we are here . But we cannot take any chances . More and more Practitioners and Metahumans are gathering, awaiting the opening of the remain . They will only become increasingly cautious, not only to us but to everybody else . This city is becoming more dangerous . “
Lu Xiaoyu nodded, “Sure . We will do as you say . “
“We are still unclear about the internal structure of the club . Moreover, the memory pieces obtained didn’t show exactly how many people they have . In my opinion, we’d better do a double check . Even if we are exposed, the victory should be ours in a head-on attack,” Lu Shu analyzed .
“Then we might as well chase them out of the house,” Lu Xiaoyu commented lightly .
Lu Shu pondered, “I’m not sure whether anyone will seize the opportunity to take him down when he’s seriously injured by us . “
The city was about to become a party place of the cultivation realm, attracting everyone to the remain . Before its opening, one fewer expert meant less danger, and fewer competitors for the treasures in the remain .
Lu Shu was thinking, if the smell of the man’s blood permeated throughout the city, would those hidden crocodiles and sharks swarm forward to destroy this injured Class B expert?
Currently, Lu Shu and Lu Xiaoyu had a better way of staying unnoticed . After Anthony was conjured up from Lu Xiaoyu’s celestial map, he wrapped his arms around the two’s shoulders and sunk deep underground without uttering a word .
It was Lu Shu’s first time to experience transport via soil . Actually it was not that amazing after all, as they still had to avoid all kinds of tubes and cavities with all carefulness . Lu Xiaoyu suddenly stopped midway .
“What happened?” Lu Shu was curious .
“An earth-type Class C just went past,” Lu Xiaoyu replied .
Lu Shu was struck speechless . Why? There was a transport system underground?! Never had he expected that other earth-type Metahumans were equally busy as Lu Xiaoyu and himself . Indeed, at that time, the safest place for people with earth powers was beneath the ground, where they were completely out of sight .
Was earth type one of the most pervasive powers among all? Lu Shu was not so sure…
They took their time to arrive at the periphery of the entertainment site . Lu Shu mused, “How to drive them out?”
Lu Xiaoyu could not be any calmer, “Tear it down . “
The sentence seemed like a straightforward yet unquestionable truth in her mouth . She was willing to restrain or unleash her temper, just for Lu Shu .
As a matter of fact, Lu Xiaoyu never followed orders as she was expected to .
. . .
Li Yixiao hummed the entire way, as he got out of the taxi and stood in front of the club, he was completely at ease . Back in China, he needed to watch his behaviors as so many eyes were on him, as a Heavenly King . But here, who cares?
Li Yixiao had been missing his precious freedom from when he was younger ever since he joined the Heavenly Network!
He moved his stalwart build into the palace and saw four pretty ladies in mini skirts at the entrance, all four held their palms together, “Sawatdee ka!”
In Thailand, Sawatdee ka was a commonly used greeting . When you were in trouble, if you kept your palms together with a “Sawatdee ka”, you could usually get the help you needed .
Li Yixiao was almost beaming with excitement . He held his palms together, his eyes fixed on the girls’ lower legs, “Sawatdee…”
“Ka!”
He spun his head up in shock! Who continued his sentence?!
At that instant, cracks crawled up the walls of the entire building . Within merely two seconds, the sumptuous structure suddenly fell into sand and soil . It must be an earth-type expert of at least Class B to accomplish such a feat!
Li Yixiao coughed out a mouthful of dust while he stood still in his original position…
Could he claim that he Ka downed an entertainment club with a simple Sawatdee “Ka”?!
Screw you! Who the hell did that? I, Li Yixiao, am not a fool!
The building collapsed like a sand castle built by kids at the beach . Although the lightweight sandy soil did not result in much harm, everything that Li Yixiao had imagined crumbled into nonexistence as well .
Li Yixiao was almost buried alive in the dust . He wiped his face and glanced around, only to see steel bars erecting from the level ground… Everyone in the compound was equally dusty and dirty like himself…
The mini skirt girls were gone too . Covered in dirt, one could not even differentiate a male from a female .
Li Yixiao gazed sorrowfully at his dreamland and sighed, “What the…”

On the Road to Elspar (Book 1)
The year is 1329. The Huntress' War has entered its tenth year, inflaming competing nationalisms and pitting the Confederacy of Caldrein against one of the continent's superpowers, the Tenereian Union. Desperately outnumbered, the Confederacy has relied on the prowess of its famed Caldran mercenaries, with highly-trained and experienced warbands returning from foreign conflicts to the defense of their homeland, and it is on their backs that Caldrein has successfully mounted a valiant defense for a decade. But they are losing, and day by day, with all the grace of a sledgehammer, the vast Tenereian armies take one more bit of Caldran territory, one footstep at a time. Sixteen-year-old Neianne from the village of Caelon has submitted herself to Faulkren Academy, one of the centuries-old institutions established to train the next generation of Caldrein's elite soldiers of fortune, to learn the ways of wars for three years before embarking upon the defense of her country. Her dryad family once hailed from reclusive woodland communes isolated from Caldrein's complicated mainstream society, and her upbringing leaves the shy village girl unprepared to suddenly train alongside other apprentices from backgrounds as low as the dirty slums of Caldrein's cities and as high as the halls of aristocratic power. Yet the war is eroding the norms and traditions that the Caldran people have long considered part of their national mythos, and the tensions within the confederacy that have long simmered under the surface - race, class, community, identity - are slowly but surely dividing its people, and Neianne must grow and discover who she really is, even as the war that she is steadfastly training for comes to its inexorable end... On the Road to Elspar is a fantasy quest - a work of interactive fiction wherein readers get to vote on what happens next at critical junctures - that is the first entry in a story that follows Neianne of Caelon, which first began on July 20, 2016. Originally a three-part in medias res prologue to a larger story titled On the Elsparian Road, it was eventually decided that this section - which covers Neianne's three years at Faulkren Academy - become its own independent story due to length, structural, and accessibility reasons. Despite this being a reader interactive work of fiction, due to logistical and verification concerns, voting will only be counted on its thread on the forum Sufficient Velocity, where this story originally began. As such, the content here on Royal Road serves as a story-only archive. You are, of course, entirely welcome to enjoy On the Road to Elspar as a conventional work of fiction, just as you are welcome to comment, discuss, and provide critique. But if you would like to participate in the voting, then I would be honored to welcome you on Sufficient Velocity. To facilitate accessibility and to ensure the best reading experience, this story-only version of On the Road to Elspar will be updated at a periodic pace, even though further content exists, so as to not overwhelm new readers on Royal Road. If you enjoy this story, wish to binge it, and/or want to participate in voting immediately, you may of course read all additional content via the link provided above. This paragraph will be removed once the content on Royal Road catches up with what has already been posted in its original thread. Cover artwork by DreamSyndd.

The Bronze Players of Recreation
The world of Creation has seen a recent explosion of what can only be called an adventurer’s culture over the past few decades. People who were once looked at as nothing more than lower class mercenaries rose to the ranks of heroes and legends as adventuring became recognized as an idealized lifestyle of overcoming hardship and finding triumph. With the establishment of a guild-based government system on the continent of Terramania, adventurers were soon legitimized and adventuring became a phenomenon universally accepted around the world. Redlette had retreated from this world to live on Earth for the remainder of her years, having been born and outcast by the gods of Creation. However, upon meeting a friend that she treasured dearly, she found herself longing for a return to her world—she wanted to experience it properly and go on adventures with someone whom she holds dear. Putting a plan into action, she meets with her friend, an awkward, nerdy boy by the username of Herring who she’d only known through years of playing online games with him, and invites him to go on this fantastic adventure with her. An adventure in another world had always been an impossible dream for Herring, but when he suddenly found himself with the opportunity to embark on one, he knew it wouldn’t be as simple as books and shows made it out to be. Redlette was notorious for rushing into things without thinking them through, and he was flighty and weak. In the games they played together, they rarely grasped victory. They were losers through and through, both in hobby and life. Despite this, though, he takes the leap and sets off with Redlette into the world of Creation. Together they only had one goal: to have fun and go on the adventure of their lives. This time, they’d establish a guild of their own and be free to take on whatever exploits their hearts desired. This is the story of the founding of their guild. Author’s Notes: -My writing style is largely based off of the absurd amount of light novels I’ve read and anime I’ve watched, so it may come off as cartoonish or exaggerative at times. If that isn’t your thing, I’d steer clear of this story.-Not an MMO story.-No numerical stats.-Relatively slow pacing.-Posts are between 2000-5000 words weekly after Chapter 1.
