Chapter 351: Mentor

Their document was very comprehensive, including the date of birth, home address and habits of all twenty-one targets. On the back, it was also appended with their detailed criminal records. Needless to say, those were all scum of the cultivation community, who committed innumerable murders and robberies.

Actually, Shi Xuejin’s original instruction was not to kill everybody, but was “Bring them back alive. If you are met with any form of resistance, kill them on the spot”.

If he had said that killing was permissible if they resisted, then how to define the extent of resistance? How much could they resist before they were allowed to kill them?

But Shi Xuejin’s instruction was clear, as long as the target even attempted to resist, they may kill them.

In fact, the number of accessories was even more appalling. Those on the list were only the ones who deserved to die.

They were all clear that at that time, the Class A aptitude geniuses were at the peak of Class D at most. If they did not use their full force when fighting these malicious enemies, they themselves might be killed as well.

After reading through the document, Lu Shu handed it to his group mates. Almost every group was discussing among themselves and making a plan.

Now, each clenched their fists and set their jaw, all eager for a fight. Many had never been to a remain or caught a thief before. Thus, when suddenly thrown into such matters, they were all overwhelmed with nervousness with a tinge of excitement for the anticipation of recognition. The reality was, even the geniuses also needed tangible achievements so as to be qualified for greater power.

Honestly, this time, was still an accelerated approach. If one wanted to further his own cultivation techniques, he would still have to make more military contributions with no shortcuts available.

“In my opinion, we can act like customers and sneak in to have a general idea of the situation in the black market. If possible, we will take them down one by one. What do you think?”

“I agree. Although according to the document, most of them were Class E’s with very few Class D’s, they have too many people. It’s a good idea to take them one by one…”

“Don’t be afraid! Just do it! It’s our duty to destroy the criminals’ swollen arrogance!” they heard someone whispering softly.

The entire group froze, looking at one another in confusion. Did you say that? Nope. Did he say that? Nah…

The discussion halted. Astounded, everyone in the group turned to see Lu Shu standing behind the group leader. After a few seconds of hesitation, they asked, “Why don’t you go and discuss with your own group?”

Lu Shu grinned without even raising his head, his eyes glued to the document in their leader’s hands, “I’m your mentor… Don’t push! I’m leaving!”

When all the other groups were sitting in a circle for discussion, Lu Shu’s team were staring quietly at him, who was running around like a bee to mentor other people’s work.

Cheng Qiuqiao was at a complete loss, “Is he always so… lively?”

“I suppose so…” a look of sadness appeared on Chen Zuan’s face.

At this moment, however, Lu Shu was pondering over something. After looking through every group’s documents, he realized that their destinations were all close together, concentrated in the central area.

He recorded all information gathered in his phone, so as to have a clearer picture of the locations of those covert black markets, and also to… This time, they were going in the name of law enforcement and their enemies were wicked black market operators. Lu Shu noticed that they had committed many crimes of robbery, so…

With no other intentions, Lu Shu was simply curious about what they had stolen… Curiosity was no big deal, right?

The geniuses were relatively naive. No one suspected Lu Shu’s objective of looking at their documents. After all, different groups had different missions, who would expect that someone would be so free as to pay attention to others’ missions?

To them, there was no guarantee that they could even complete their own task, so why bother about others?

Unlike them, Lu Shu was resolved to become a helpful, forward-thinking youth! Sometimes it was necessary to improve his ideological awareness!

Now, everyone’s mission objective was carved in Lu Shu’s mind. As he was walking to his group, he typed down everything in his phone, just in case his memory might be worn off in the long term.

Even his remarkable memory could not warrant that the information would stay in his brain forever, and Lu Shu was always a meticulous person.

According to his memory, their own destination was at the boundary between Shanzhou and Yuzhou, which was actually located in the Tongguan County of Shanzhou.

Meanwhile, the other groups were concentrated in Shanzhou, Jinzhou and Yuzhou. Despite the relative proximity, each state itself was geographically large. After careful consideration, it seemed that he did not have many options available after all.

Still deep in his thought, Chen Zuan interrupted, “Brother Shu, could you be our mentor too?”

“Pointless!” Lu Shu gave them a grumpy look.

At first, Chen Zuan and Cheng Qiuqiao had expected Lu Shu to give some opinions on the group, seeing him busying around and how he was treated differently by the veterans. But in the end, why was he particularly cold to his own group mates?

However, they would not think so if they knew what was actually on Lu Shu’s mind.

In fact, Lu Shu had noticed that his group was the strongest among all. They had Cao Qingci and himself, while their rivals only consisted of two mid-Class D’s and other insignificant ones of Class F and E. Their victory was apparently certain.

According to the information given, their enemies used guns and hunting rifles, which was the only thing to be cautious of.

Had he overestimated the local Practitioners in the gray area? Lu Shu wondered.

In their team, Cao Qingci was sitting at the side without a single word throughout, but occasionally she would cast a calm look at Lu Shu. On the other hand, Chen Zuan and Cheng Qiuqiao soon became familiar with each other, and the remaining three Daoyuan Class students who were from different states were strangers among themselves as well.

The group allocation seemed completely illogical too, as if the two most powerful students, Lu Shu and Cao Qingci, were purposely put together. Since Chen Zuan was brought in by Lu Shu, it was only sensible for him to follow Lu Shu, and the rest were not that important.

Just now, Lu Shu had also noticed that the two strong students from Qingzhou who were both at the peak of Class D were separated into two groups for the purpose of fairness. So why was his group an anomaly?

It was an obvious fact that his group was the strongest! Nie Ting and Shi Xuejin were clearly aware of that too.

Lu Shu and Cao Qingci had never even had a conversation before. Suddenly, he turned to Cao Qingci, “There may be something wrong with our mission. Be careful.”

Composed, Cao Qingci nodded, “Okay.”

This was the first sentence Cao Qingci ever spoke to Lu Shu, but it felt like the two had known each other for a long time.
