Chapter 1264: Lord of Heaven of the North
For the entire night, the Imperial Dragon Soldiers continued fighting with the wealthy families of the palace . The Li family was the unluckiest of them all as they were the most unprepared .

The reason they set fire to the campsite during the night attack was not because they wanted to ruin the campsite but rather because they wanted to cause panic .
The fire reminded the wealthy families of the palace that even a fool would be prepared .
However, Li Liang did not mind . Just as what he said, the Imperial Dragon Soldiers completely dominated in their fights . The strength of any wealthy family of the palace was only average and no accidents would happen as long as one did not pretend to die and disperse the soldiers .
Lu Shu, Lu Xiaoyu, Coral and the rest had their guard up . Perhaps the mastermind would attack that night . Meanwhile, Zhang Weiyu and the rest pretended to run all over the place with their Armor that Shook Mountains but in reality, the formation of the Imperial Palace Soldiers was never messed up . In fact, they were always close to Lu Shu .
When the Imperial Dragon Soldiers conquered the third campsite, Li Liang asked in confusion, “Great Lord, what on earth does the mastermind want, if the wealthy families of the palace were sent over by the fake imperial edict, did they simply want to watch the Imperial Dragon Soldiers devour the troops without suffering any injuries? This is so strange . ”
Lu Shu kept silent . He could not spill the secret about how he would become more powerful if the Imperial Dragon Soldiers killed others . However, in his mind, he thought that if what he guessed was correct, some people were waiting for him to develop to a certain stage before snatching the things that belonged to him .
Therefore, the mastermind must know Lu Shu very well . He knew what Lu Shu had within him and how he managed to level up so quickly .
Why did an enemy that was so familiar with him send an army that was there to commit suicide? For the Imperial Dragon Soldiers to kill? Or for Lu Shu to level up?
This made Lu Shu very uneasy . That was because his opponent seemed to have taken advantage of him completely and gave him the opportunity to level up . That meant that his opponent was unafraid of him levelling up .

Li Liang asked curiously, “Great Lord, do you have any ideas regarding who is targeting you?”
Lu Shu shook his head . “I don’t have a concrete answer . I only managed to eliminate Wen Zaifou as a suspect . ”
Li Liang did not dare to give any suggestions . After all, it would involve the Lord of Heaven if he spoke . If he had any misjudgement, he could not bear the responsibility .
When the Imperial Palace Soldiers led by Zhang Weiyu passed by Lu Shu, Lu Shu suddenly stopped Zhang Weiyu and asked, “In your opinion, how are Yu Fuyao and Qing Kong like?”
Zhang Weiyu was stunned for a moment . “My opinion of Yu Fuyao is that she will change her male companion every month . She selected her male companions very carefully . I don’t think any man has a good impression of Yu Fuyao . As for Qing Kong…”
As he said that, Zhang Weiyu suddenly realized that his impression of Qing Kong was very shallow . Qing Kong was like an ordinary Lord of Heaven who settled his work, occasionally practiced behind closed doors and was extremely respectful towards the old King of Gods .
As compared to the other Lords of Heaven, Qing Kong was like the ordinary person amongst the crazy people .
Having said that, the elder named Qing Kong had managed everything in fear on behalf of the King of Gods . Everyone in the North Region praised Qing Kong as the King of Gods of the North .
The locals praised him because the North Region was safe . The wealthy families would stop bullying the public and the Lord of Heaven would give benefits to the wealthy families, such as cutting their taxes .

The foreign businessmen also praised Qing Kong as the more the North Region emphasised on business, the lower the rates for taxes .
Qing Kong seemed to be the best Lord of Heaven amongst the entire Luniverse . Of course, Qing Kong had depended on others . Wen Zaifou did not care about politics, Yu Fuyao changed her male companion every month, Duanmu Huangqi was nasty and suspicious . In comparison, Qing Kong was extremely good .
Zhang Weiyu thought and said, “My impression of Qing Kong is that he is a good person . Whenever he entered the palace for his shift, he would bring a whole lot of local produce from the North Region . He always smiled like a friendly neighbour and had a very low profile . ”
Lu Shu suddenly felt that something was amiss . It was already abnormal for him to have three other Lords of Heaven . Moreover, Qing Kong would look extremely obvious if one compared him with the others .
Being ordinary was not a bad thing, but Lu Shu felt that something was amiss . The other three people were very unusual, so why was Qing Kong so normal?
He hoped that his suspicion was wrong . That was because he had yet to interact with Qing Kong but he had to be cautious of the others .
Li Liang thought and said, “Great Lord, you have to keep your guard up . Many problems were caused by honest people . We have to keep our guards up . ”
Lu Shu nodded . “Let’s talk about this after tonight’s battle ends . Tell everyone to continue to be careful in case a third party suddenly cuts in and joins the battle!”
“Roger . ” Li Liang, Zhang Weiyu and the rest followed the command .

Lu Xiaoyu asked at the side, “What exactly do you think the mastermind wants?”
Lu Shu smiled . “You don’t have to care about what he wants, the dead do not need anything . ”
“Then let me ask you a question,” asked Lu Xiaoyu curiously, “Do you know why you did not open the seventh level, do you have any recollection?”
“No, I don’t have any recollection regarding that,” said Lu Shu, “Eh, Zhang Weiyu and the rest are in danger, I need to help them . ”
“Hmmph,” said Lu Xiaoyu in disdain . At this moment, she looked at Coral who was on the other side of the battlefield . Both of them exchanged glances with each other before looking away at the same time .
The battle continued towards the west . The Sun family and the Song family had received the warning from Liu Yizhao beforehand . However, the other families were not as lucky .
When the Sun family and the Song family retreated, the scouts of the other families reported the news and everyone guessed that the two families had received some insider information . However, they did not have the determination like the two families as they would be offending the edict if they retreated .
Meanwhile, the Mice Army had reported the actions taken by the Sun family and the Song family . Lu Shu was only relieved when he heard that the two families had completely retreated . Or else, he could only kill them .
When the Imperial Dragon Soldiers destroyed the third campsite, the remaining nine wealthy families finally decided to form an alliance . They finally figured out who was conducting the night attacks . However, they could not win against Lu Shu and could only form an alliance in a hurry .
Moreover, they hoped that Lu Shu and the rest would not be crazy enough to fight against all the wealthy families in the palace . In their opinion, they had to at least be wary of the enemies in the West Region, right?
However, they were wrong . Or rather, all the enemies who judged the Imperial Dragon Soldiers based on common sense were wrong .
