Chapter 320: Chang Ping Mystic Realm
Chapter 320: Chang Ping Mystic Realm
Li Wu decided to take a detour.
Initially, he had planned to return directly to Jiangnan.
However, Feng Xiu's sudden visit made Li Wu sense an impending danger.
He was a hundred percent certain that if he went back to Jiangnan, trouble would inevitably follow.
In this situation, Li Wu had a choice to make.
Should he face the trouble or turn away?
Given the options, Li Wu chose to retreat.
Survival first, he thought.
Although running away was shameful, it was effective.
The target was clearly him, and they couldn't force the issue. So, as long as Li Wu avoided stepping into the trap they had set, he could at least buy himself time to become stronger.
Therefore, Li Wu, who had originally planned to return to Jiangnan, took a different route.
"He ran? What a coward! Is this guy really that man's son?"
On the other side, watching Li Wu suddenly change course, Feng Xiu was somewhat taken aback.
He hadn't expected Li Hai'kong, known for his recklessness, to have such a timid son.
"I guess I underestimated him a bit."
...
Feng Xiu didn't pay too much attention to this situation.
On one hand, he was well aware that Li Wu couldn't escape.
On the other hand, he had obtained what he wanted during his recent encounter with Li Wu.
Based on Yue Ying's reaction, it was evident that Li Hai'kong didn't want Li Wu to get involved with anything related to the 'Gate Key'.
This meant that the fearless Li Hai'kong was gone, and he had become timid.
The more timid Li Hai'kong became, the more brazen they could be.
"Looks like we can have a good fight."
Watching the saloon car drive away, Feng Xiu's eyes flashed as he began to secretly plan.
...
Meanwhile, on Li Wu's side.
After changing course, the saloon car drove out of the highway and onto the mountain path.
Ordinary saloon cars wouldn't be able to navigate the unpaved mountain road.
But Li Wu's car was extraordinary.
Every part of this vehicle, from front to back, was a separate piece of equipment.
Among them were even some golden-quality equipment.
Li Wu had invested heavily in this car, spending over a million credits from start to finish. If converted into money, this vehicle was worth at least a trillion.
In his past life, it would have been worth the entire fortune of a Target King.
Such a car could not only drive on mountain paths but could also climb mountains without issue.
Moreover, it maintained a high speed, even in the wild mountain paths, reaching a speed of a hundred kilometers per hour.
Whatever stood in its way, be it summoned beasts or trees and stones, would either be destroyed or driven away.
If one were to look down from the sky, they would see a straight line being drawn as Li Wu's saloon car advanced.
The way it drove, straight through the middle, was truly domineering!
One day later.
Chang Ping Mystic Realm's entrance outpost.
A large group of summoners who had just returned from the mystic realm were leisurely singing and drinking when a piercing alarm suddenly rang out.
The alarm sounded.
All the summoners instantly became alert, even those who were drunk on the side were roused by their companions.
"What's going on? Did the summoned beasts in the mystic realm riot again?"
Almost immediately, the summoners had to rush to the entrance.
However, they soon realized that the direction of the alarm was wrong. This time, it wasn't coming from the entrance but from outside the outpost.
The summoners within the outpost visibly relaxed.
"Looks like there's a summoned beast without a clue that wandered into the restricted area."
"That brother is interested in moving around... Oh crap!"
The summoners' relief didn't last long before it was shattered by several enormous silhouettes.
A six-meter-tall Savage Tiger with Lord-level strength.
An eight-meter-tall Earth Bear with Lord-level strength.
A several dozen-meter-long Azure Serpent with Lord-level strength.
Each one of them was a top-tier summoned beast near the outpost, their strength was terrifyingly formidable.
Any one of them could cause chaos in the outpost, and with all three of them here, the summoners were worried if the outpost could be defended.
However, some keen observers noticed something amiss: "Wait, they don't seem to be here to attack.
They seem to be running away..."
Before they could finish their sentence, three sword beams lit up.
Immediately after, the three incredibly powerful Lord-level summoned beasts were all slashed.
This sudden turn of events left the summoners within the outpost stunned.
Before they could grasp the situation, a saloon car charged through, dragging the bodies of the three summoners with ropes.
At this moment, the summoners inside the outpost noticed several more ropes pulling summoned beasts behind the car.
As the car continued moving forward, the summoners were left speechless as they saw each rope holding a summoned beast of Lord-level strength or higher.
Witnessing this scene, the summoners within the outpost gasped in awe.
As the summoners stared in disbelief.
Li Wu's saloon car eventually came to a stop outside the outpost of the Chang Ping Mystic Realm.
As the car door opened, the Summoners inside couldn't help but feel curious, eagerly anticipating the identity of the powerful owner.
They all wanted to see which prominent figure owned such a domineering vehicle.
Amidst their curiosity and anticipation, Li Wu calmly stepped out.
The summoners inside the outpost were taken aback when they saw the unassuming Li Wu.
A summoner exclaimed, "Who's this kid?"
Evidently, many summoners within the outpost didn't recognize Li Wu.
This was quite normal, as most summoners here were professional summoners, many of them seasoned veterans who had spent years, even decades, battling within the mystic realms.
With their focus on the mystic realms, few paid attention to news from the Summoner University or the University League, so it was no surprise that few knew Li Wu.
However, there were some who did recognize him.
"It's actually him!" exclaimed a summoner who had recently ventured out.
"Whose child is this?"
The nearby summoners, recognizing a familiar face, quickly gathered to listen to the gossip.
"With such a domineering attitude, he must be from a prominent family."
"You're mistaken about that."
The only one who knew Li Wu's identity, seizing the rare opportunity to show off, couldn't help but brag about Li Wu: "Let me tell you, this guy is no ordinary! His name is Li Wu, he's only 20 years old, and he was last year's champion of the Jiangnan High School League."
The summoners beside him weren't pleased to hear this.
"What's so special about being a high school league champion?
Just tell us who his father, and that's enough!"
"Can you not interrupt? Besides, it's him who's impressive, what does his father have to do with it? His father is just an ordinary person, a regular Joe with no presence. But I heard that the Jiangnan Governor is his stepmother, isn't she?"
The summoners listening to this turned to look at Li Wu's unassuming face and nodded in understanding.
"Oh, I get it now!"
"You guys don't get it at all!"
"Do you think he's so domineering because of the Jiangnan Governor? Let me tell you, this guy's current status and position are not much lower than that of the Jiangnan Governor."
"Come on, what can a 20-year-old kid achieve?
He's not much lower than the Jiangnan Governor?
Could he possibly be a Breeding Master?"
"You're absolutely right. This guy was already a Master-level Breeding Master last year, the youngest in the Alliance.
He's also recognized as someone who can definitely become a Grandmaster-level Breeding Master."
"If that's the case, this guy seems to have some real skills."
"Do you think that's all? You know about Jiangnan University, right?"
"The one that used to be strong but is now in decline?"
"Yes, Jiangnan University was almost crumbling, but after this guy's intervention, it revived in less than three months. Plus, he has a company under his command, and it's said that this company generates at least several million points in revenue each month.
He's also this year's University League champion, and his abilities have apparently reached the Master level..."
As the summoner boasted, the summoners around him were stunned.
When they turned to look at Li Wu again, they almost bowed in reverence.
An ordinary kid achieving so much in less than two years?
This guy is no mere mortal, he's practically a god!
As long as he doesn't fall, his future is bound to be extraordinary.
No, to many summoners, Li Wu is already an extraordinary figure.
Just then, as they were learning about Li Wu's situation, the person in charge of the outpost, usually cold and aloof, hurriedly approached with a big smile on his face.
The usually expressionless face was now filled with joy.
Such flattery!
"Hello, Master Li. I'm Chen Pingping, the head of the Chang Ping Mystic Realm outpost.
Please let me know if you need anything."
"Hello, please arrange a few rooms for me. Also, find a few people to handle these materials. Oh, and leave the edible meat for me.
I need to feed the pigs!
And the bones too, I want them for my dog to chew on."
If someone else had said this, Chen Pingping would have rolled his eyes.
Isn't he full of himself?
But when Li Wu spoke, Chen Pingping found Master Li's words impressive.
"I'll arrange people to handle it right away!"
"Thank you, and I need a map of the Chang Ping Mystic Realm, along with information about the realm and the Undead Summoner faction. Please go the extra mile, and of course, I won't let your help go unrewarded."
"Uncle Li!"
At the mention of Uncle Li, Li Kai immediately took out a card and handed it to Chen Pingping.
"What are you doing, Master Li? It's my honor to serve you, and there's no need to pay me."
Chen Pingping initially refused, determined not to accept any payment.
But upon learning that the card contained 10,000 Jiangnan University credits, he silently took the card.
There was no choice; the offer from Li Wu was simply too generous!
