Chapter 256 The Forbidden Sun Reappears! The Thorn Saint Lu Yu? Preparations for Advancing to Morning Star (Seeking Monthly Tickets)
After he finished speaking, Chi Yue Hong Lian and Chi Yue Meng stared at Lu Yu, curious about what he would choose.
Luo Qingyue's lips curled up. With such a big bait, she didn't believe that Lu Yu, this great shark, wouldn't take the bait!
"It was already decided, but after you told me about the ruins of an ancient civilization, I need to reconsider, however..."
Lu Yu shook his head, and what he said next made Luo Qingyue, who was wearing a confident smile, freeze:
"This impact isn't too significant. After all, exploring ruins doesn't necessarily require an archaeology background. For example, mysticism students can help eliminate rituals and traps, civil engineering students can construct structures, and combat students can clear out monsters inside, etc..."
Luo Qingyue pursed her oily lips, looking embarrassed.
I completely forgot about that...
How could such a significant undertaking as excavating ancient civilization relics be monopolized by the archaeology department alone?
As long as there is profit, then the so-called mortality rate is all bullshit!
If only the archaeology department is allowed, then the other departments will hang up signs for the archaeology branch that very night, or even hold a branch competition to determine who is the true main branch of the archaeology department.
Anyway, once we've finished excavating the ruins, I'll just quit the archaeology department!
The adult world is just that shameless!
At that moment, Luo Qingyue suddenly felt that the braised pork knuckle in her hand no longer tasted good!
If Lu Yu were to join another department but still outperform the archaeology department in conquering historical sites, that would be truly embarrassing.
The difficulty of recruiting students will increase dramatically in the future!
After all, this blond guy's ability to drive sales is off the charts!
However, offering advice would be tantamount to revealing her true intentions. At this moment, Luo Qingyue finally understood what it meant to try to steal a chicken but end up losing the rice instead.
But you can't just deliver seafood to students' doors just to recruit them!
So annoying!
"Senior Luo, you're still too inexperienced!"
Lu Yu smiled without saying a word. He didn't immediately target the archaeology department because of the ancient civilization relics, but instead thought of a better and more comprehensive method!
But we need to see the conditions offered by each department first!
Just kidding, all that effort to win Rookie of the Year is just to wait for them to make an offer!
Lu Yu doesn't usually sell himself; if he does, he sells himself for a high price!
Thinking of this, Lu Yu understood that Yu Xiyan had come to him for the purpose of informing him of the existence of the ruins.
When he looked up, he met a pair of eyes filled with admiration. The latter was smiling at him with an expression of worship on his face.
Everything was understood without words; they had a remarkable tacit understanding!
Clearly, she had already guessed what Lu Yu wanted to do!
This woman is incredibly skilled!
The two sisters, Chi Yue Meng and Chi Yue Hong Lian, reacted in completely opposite ways. The former looked forward to Lu Yu coming to the Potions Department so that they could see each other every day and get his scent on him.
If a love potion is made, it will be easy to administer it immediately!
The latter was a little nervous. If Lu Yu came to the combat system, wouldn't he have to spend every day with him?
That would be so unfair to my sister!
Red Lotus pressed down the corners of her mouth, revealing a sorrowful expression.
Lilith's curse is truly wicked!
Lu Yu thought it was just a private gathering for the few of them, but before long, Mu Mu and Tong Ye were also invited.
Yu Xiyan's reasoning was that the top ten geniuses share common topics, making it easier for us to form our own circle, share connections, and provide convenience.
Although the reasons sounded plausible, in Chi Yue Hong Lian's view, this was Yu Xi Yan's attempt to consolidate power and counterbalance the sisters!
How ridiculous! Can such despicable behavior compare to the attribute bonuses of these three sisters?
Hmm... she meant supporting her younger sister from behind!
Good evening.
Mu Mu wasn't interested in the so-called mutual aid society. She frequently glanced at Lu Yu, her gaze no longer filled with hostility, but with a more complex emotion.
It's not that I was intimidated by the opponent's imposing presence after being defeated.
The main reason is that while they were worshipping and imitating their idols and disciples, someone actually started to be on par with or even surpass them!
This style of doing things is exactly to Mu Mu's liking!
Geniuses are proud, but they also appreciate each other!
"This guy would be perfect to join the Disciple Supporters Club!" Mu Mu thought to himself.
As for Tong Ye, knowing that Lu Yu would also be attending the party, she specially wore a pretty dress and pantyhose with cute doll patterns.
Just like a princess in a castle!
Exquisite and beautiful!
But when she arrived, she discovered a cruel truth.
When it comes to sexiness, cuteness is nothing!
The difference in their sizes chilled her to the bone. Even the considerate Mu Mu was a size larger than her, which dealt her a heavy blow, leaving her pale.
In the end, her gaze towards Lu Yu darkened, and she murmured:
"The world of big toys is truly dirty, filthy, and vulgar!"
If I can't have it, I'll destroy it!
After taking their seats, the two did not seem surprised when they learned about the ancient ruins; in fact, they seemed to understand.
But thinking about it, it makes sense. These two are both from established families within the alliance, with access to a vast amount of information. They must have received word of this long ago and know even more inside information.
They shared Lu Yu's perspective, being interested in historical sites, but this wouldn't affect their choice of department.
After all, each department of Imperial Capital University corresponds to a path verified by several ancient giants, and even has gifts left by true kings.
Choosing the right department can make all the difference!
After comparing the information held by Mu Mu and Tong Ye, they realized...
Luo Qingyue was even more humiliating than they had imagined!
This woman didn't even get inside, let alone through the doorway. She just dug around outside until the Alliance notified the principal, who then sent out the Five-Bone Feast Bird to capture her.
They still haven't figured out the name of this ancient civilization.
"Actually, through the power of the ancient scholar Butterfly, I almost uncovered the truth about this civilization. It is definitely related to the sun. There was even a sun worship cult that was popular on the border."
It's not some evil god like the Mother of Twilight who's supposedly impersonating the sun, but a civilization that truly worships the supreme sun. They seem to have sun-related blessings, and it even seems to involve something called the "Old Ones," who supposedly have multiple suns. Isn't that ridiculous?
However, I have too little information; I need to dig deeper to figure it out…
Luo Qingyue wanted to struggle a bit more, but facing so many eyes, she wasn't thick-skinned enough and quickly changed the subject:
"Alright, let's stop talking about this. Let's wait for the Alliance's announcement. Let's start eating. This Golden Bush Private Kitchen is famous throughout the entire capital for its top-notch monster cuisine. You have to book at least two weeks in advance!"
There is only one sun!
In most small worlds, the sun is actually just a projection of the Supreme Sun through the Mother River!
This is basic common sense in this world!
Instead of pressing Luo Qingyue, the group began a celebration banquet.
Upon hearing "multiple suns," Lu Yu's gaze grew increasingly solemn. He recalled the scene when he first arrived in the world and saw the nine collapsed and distorted suns being devoured by countless figures.
Could it be... that they also saw the forbidden sun?
What does the Mother of Twilight want to do?
What is this so-called ultimate secret of the border?
While Lu Yu was pondering, Chi Yue Meng sat down beside him without him noticing, and gently poked his arm with her slender, white fingers.
"President, what's wrong?" Lu Yu asked, puzzled.
Akatsuki Meng shook her head without saying anything, and continued poking, covering the area with her own bodily fluids.
Lu Yu didn't mind. After all, the president seemed aloof, but was actually quite adorable and would occasionally do some childish things. He had done similar things before.
In this era where a kiss between friends is considered "friends and family," what's a little poke? Just think of it as a massage!
Men need to show magnanimity for women to continue to tolerate them!
"What an aggressive little dog!" Yu Xiyan looked at the scene, her hand supporting her face, her eyes crinkling with a smile.
However, Mu Mu and Tong Ye, who were standing to the side, felt like they were sitting on pins and needles, as they had never played such a high-level game before.
It's really a bit scary.
"Very good!"
As for Crimson Moon and Red Lotus, they were overjoyed.
My little sister has finally learned how to pluck cabbages!
Come on, take down Lu Yu right away!
Chi Yue Meng slowly dispelled the strange smell emanating from him, a hint of joy flashing in her crimson eyes.
It smells good...
I want to eat...
On the other side, Lu Yu, this country bumpkin from the border, finally got to taste the high-end cuisine of the capital!
First up is the liver of the Skyhawk, a low-level demonic creature born in the Skyhawk ecosystem, located at an altitude of over 3,000 meters. It builds its nest at the convergence point of storm spirits and gives birth to its young there.
If the cubs are born with defects, they will be killed by the storm during this period; only the strong individuals can survive.
Skyhawks can sense air currents and manipulate storms, especially around the middle of each month when air currents change.
They gather together and hunt life on the ground in packs, with a particular fondness for ordinary people who are weak but spiritually rich.
If it's a small village, encountering them will only result in the destruction of the village and the death of its inhabitants!
Therefore, it has also been included in the league's list of pest birds!
Although their livers are not among the most critical extraordinary organs, they are imbued with the spirit of the storm, giving them a unique taste. After careful cooking and preparation, they are sprinkled with a sauce made from small cherries born in the thunderstorm ecosystem, making the taste far superior to the top-grade foie gras of their previous life.
Eating this cherry sauce, in particular, gave Lu Yu the feeling of being in the middle of a thunderstorm.
It can refine spiritual power!
If Lu Yu were at the Silver Rank 1, one bite would have allowed him to advance a small rank, but for him now, possessing the [Celestial Breath], the spiritual enhancement effect was negligible; it was more like a delicious meal.
"good!"
The hamster really likes this kind of delicate food, but unfortunately it can only swallow it whole in its dragon ant form and can't maintain its hamster form to savor it with a knife and fork.
Egg was quite satisfied, but because there were too few, it wasn't very interesting. However, Lu Yu didn't dare let it eat as much as it wanted, otherwise he might end up washing the dishes himself.
"Eek!"
As for the little spider, it was holding half a watermelon and eating it with a spoon, a happy look on its face.
To this day, Lu Yu still doesn't know...
How many watermelons did the little spider hide in the Void Chest?
Next up is a soup made with beef brisket from Bishui buffalo and various high-end plants harvested from the local ecosystem; it's incredibly delicious.
This is a water-type pet with the potential to become a leader in its early stages. It has a slight chance of evolving into the Water-Avoiding Golden-Eyed Ox. It prefers to stay in the water year-round and feeds on water-type monsters with high spiritual energy concentration. Sometimes it will also attack passing ships.
After eating it, you can nourish your spleen and stomach and replenish your fluids.
There are also Crab Claws with Gale Gunfire, Cold Jellyfish Salad with Ghostly Light, Ham from Dark-Tailed Pigs, and more...
Although the increase in spiritual energy per unit is not much, when accumulated, it helps to improve Lu Yu's physique under the rhythm of [Celestial Breathing].
But the price was that it cost over two million!
Originally, Lu Yu wanted to pay the bill, since he, his pet beast, and Luo Qingyue ate most of it.
The former principal had always been very kind to him, so it was only right that he took care of the senior student!
However, Yu Xiyan lightly tapped Lu Yu's chest with her finger, gave him a gentle push, and said leisurely:
"I recently picked up over a dozen secret realm inheritances left behind by beast tamers and made a small fortune, so you don't need to help me save money."
"A dozen... a dozen or so?" Lu Yu's mouth was dry, and he suddenly felt a sense of unease about Yu Xiyan in front of him...
It seemed to be emitting golden light!
It smells like money!
He, who was often blessed by the god of poverty, could never have imagined such a wonderful experience.
Is this the sheer power of the Fate system? The number of secret realm inheritances they receive starts at double digits.
I need to get a pet with Fate or Golden Rule abilities someday!
Just as Lu Yu was in shock, Yu Xiyan tiptoed, her black hair flying, and her delicate face came within centimeters of Lu Yu, as if she could smell a trace of the fragrance of bellflower.
It instantly attracted everyone's attention!
Red Lotus frowned, and ripples spread across Red Moon Dream's usually calm eyes, as if a strong emotion was beginning to surge forth.
"Shameless big toy!" Tong Ye covered her eyes; this was too much of a shock for her.
Luo Qingyue felt like she had grass growing on her head, after all, this was the future blind date arranged by her grandfather.
How come there are so many women coming one after another!
Mu Mu, on the other hand, was just watching the show, seemingly detached from the situation.
Although Lu Yu was surprised, he did not back down, but listened attentively to what the other party was saying.
Lu Yu isn't emotionally naive; he can sense Yu Xiyan's devotion to him. Pretending not to understand would be pointless.
Even if it were a confession, she's a talented and beautiful young woman, so I wouldn't be at a disadvantage!
However, Lu Yu would explain in advance that he would now devote most of his energy to his pets, and that his only goal was to become stronger and live forever!
Feelings are just a byproduct!
"Getting closer and closer..."
A sly glint flashed in Yu Xiyan's azure eyes. She could see victory within reach, but she also understood...
This is a trap!
One wrong step and you could fall into an abyss!
To obtain Lu Yu, you still need to...
Even greater strength!
Her breath was sweet as orchids, and she said softly:
"Because these are the only things I can barely manage to keep up with you!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Yu Xiyan pushed Lu Yu and herself away with a little force. Her black hair fluttered, making her look like a blue bubble that might burst at any moment and turn into a phantom.
The others breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this; as long as it wasn't a confession, the tense atmosphere instantly dissipated!
Lu Yu seemed to be deep in thought, then asked about the cloud whale, but the answer he received was...
"Because it likes you, just like me!"
This time, it's not a lie!
Lu Yu still felt confused, but he didn't press the matter further, after all, it was someone else's pet.
What if it's just a whale that looks sad at everyone? Wouldn't that be awkward?
However, in the end, the money was still not paid out!
Just as Yu Xiyan was about to pay, a group of nuns from the Thorn Church, dressed in revealing clothes, came out to warmly welcome everyone. They said that Lu Yu was a friend of Jiang, the candidate for Saintess, and also a friend of the Thorn Church, so the meal would be waived.
Golden Bush is actually a property owned by the Thorn Church!
Thorns naturally grow in bushes!
Yu Xiyan's hand holding the bank card froze in mid-air as she watched this scene, her eyes narrowing.
As expected... it was unexpected again!
Lu Yu looked puzzled, but still accepted the offer.
But the young nun from the Thorn Church who came to settle his bill blushed the whole time, looked at him strangely, and even asked him what he thought of Jiang Ji.
Because last time Jiang Ji wanted to share his pain without consulting him, the Thorn Church was generally in the wrong, so Lu Yu naturally maintained the tone and evaluated them as trash.
However, since the Thorn Church was being so polite, Lu Yu decided not to be rude today and instead reminded them:
Let Jiang Ji rest well, because the aftereffects will last for a while, and she may even be unable to walk. So don't think about that matter anymore.
Otherwise, if it happened again, Jiang Ji would probably die from the pain!
"hiss--"
However, upon hearing Lu Yu's reply, the nuns of the Thorn Church gasped in shock, their expressions filled with fear, yet their eyes shone even brighter.
Several of the younger nuns were shaking uncontrollably, their eyes filled with disbelief as they looked at Lu Yu.
They were initially unhappy that Lu Yu was seeing other girls, feeling it was a betrayal and infidelity, but now it seems...
But we can't blame Lu Yu entirely!
Moreover, Jiang Ji had indeed been recuperating during this time, and had remained silent when they asked her questions. They initially thought it was because she was shy, but it turns out it was because…
It's been ruined!
At that moment, the nuns suddenly felt a strong sense of responsibility.
If needed, they are willing to sacrifice themselves, or even mobilize the female artists in the church who are eager to have sex, to contribute to the harmony of Jiang Ji's family.
This is perfect opportunity for Lu Yu to become the Thorn Saint!
After all, procreation is the ultimate doctrine of the Thorn Church!
Giving birth to outstanding offspring is not only putting the teachings of the gods into practice, but also contributing to the growth of the human race!
I believe Jiang Ji can understand them!
They then gave him a warm send-off, their eyes filled with admiration, leaving Lu Yu somewhat bewildered…
Even if I overwhelmed Jiang Ji with pain, I wouldn't go so far as to worship her, would I?
These church women are really strange!
Everyone went home to prepare for choosing their departments tomorrow!
However, before leaving, Chi Yue Meng stared at Lu Yu with her crystal-red eyes and said earnestly:
"Let's play tomorrow!"
"Okay!" Lu Yu nodded in agreement, and the president and his sister left reluctantly.
"I'll be going now, thank you for your hospitality!"
Mu Mu waved her hand and left gracefully. Rather than finding a man, she would rather find a like-minded partner!
As for Luo Qingyue, she was preparing to look strange and go back to ask her grandfather about it...
Mission: Obtain Lu Yu!
It sounds simple, but what they didn't say was that the difficulty level is actually nightmare level!
How could I possibly outmaneuver these women!
(╯‵ ′)╯︵┻━┻
"A vulgar, oversized toy..."
Tong Ye also suffered a blow, experiencing body image anxiety for the first time, and made up her mind...
Next time, I'll definitely blow the big toy's mind!
After bidding farewell to Lu Yu, Yu Xiyan did not head towards the hotel, but instead strolled along the street and turned into a dark alley.
"...Platycodon grandiflorus...Platycodon grandiflorus...Little white flower...Embracing eternal love...A destiny of crawling..."
She hummed a melodious tune, her steps were light and slow, and she slowly opened her arms, turning her body as if she were dancing gracefully with an invisible dancer similar in size to Lu Yu!
Alone, yet elegant and beautiful!
As for her audience...
They were countless pairs of dark blue eyes!
*

When Lu Yu returned to the hotel, it was already past 8 p.m. The waiter told him that someone was waiting for him.
Lu Yu seemed to be deep in thought, and then he ran into an acquaintance in the reception room.
Several powerful beast tamer bodyguards followed Huang Tiantian, who was dressed in a black stockings and a tight-fitting skirt and had a sweet smile!
This woman, due to her exceptional professional skills, rose through the ranks from the border branch to headquarters, where she was still responsible for liaising with Lu Yu!
What's most terrifying is that this woman works several jobs at the same time!
He's practically the emperor of the working class!
Lu Yu was somewhat surprised when he heard the news, but he didn't have any objections to it being from someone he knew.
After all, although Huang Tiantian is a bit eccentric, her work ability is undeniable!
"This is Lu Yu!?"
"Little World's blondie!?"
"The legendary true demon with thirty-six arms!"
Upon seeing Lu Yu's arrival, even these Morning Star level bodyguards were intimidated.
After all, the person in front of us... is infamous!
So audacious as to challenge an ancient giant!
They might rob them, and most importantly...
We still can't beat them!
Compared to the tension of the bodyguards, Huang Tiantian's smile widened even more when she saw the god of wealth who had propelled her career forward. She said:
"Mr. Lu, congratulations on winning the championship! This should be the first time that the Borderlands has won the Rookie of the Year title!"
At this point, Huang Tiantian felt a pang of sadness.
Who could have imagined that the boy who was just a little bit of potential would rise step by step and sweep away his peers?
Even geniuses from powerful families were trampled under his feet. He suppressed all dissent with absolute force, becoming a typical example of grassroots rise in the eyes of countless ordinary people in the alliance!
These thoughts flashed by quickly, and Huang Tiantian continued:
"Mr. Lu, the headquarters has almost collected everything on your list. Three alien insect eggs have been escorted to the capital, and the Blacklight Serpent Star Grass is also in stock at the Dark Star Region branch and has been transferred over. The only thing we can't find is the crystal of an adult Star Ore Dragon."
After all, Star Mine Dragons spend most of their time in areas with thin atmospheres, feeding on meteorites falling from the sky. They rarely come to the ground, and their population is small; the last crystal they produced was over a century ago, and other merchant guilds don't have any in stock. However, there is information about witnessing Star Mine Dragons, which might be useful to you.
What Lu Yu wanted to buy was naturally the [Tears of the Stars] recipe material needed to advance to Morning Star!
Lu Yu believes in efficiency above all else; he won't go to various parts of the alliance to collect things that can be solved with money!
What a waste of time and effort!
It's just self-pity!
Once you advance to the Morning Star level and increase your strength, you can easily earn back double the money you spent!
However, the lack of the most crucial adult star dragon crystal left Lu Yu somewhat disappointed.
"Forget it, even if they shipped it over, I still couldn't afford it. I need to figure out how to raise the money!"
Since he had intelligence, Lu Yu decided to go hunting himself!
Be a dragon slayer for once!
Lu Yu nodded slightly: "Including the other materials I ordered, what is the total price?"
"After the discount and rounding down, it's forty-four million!" Huang Tiantian smiled gently. For some reason, although she was still a young girl, after being promoted and receiving a raise, she exuded the aura of a young woman.
Money really does nourish people!
"So expensive!"
Lu Yu's lips twitched. Although he felt a pang of heartache, he remained outwardly calm and swiped his card to pay.
Huang Tiantian also gave him a lot of materials, including not only the materials for [Tears of the Stars], but also a lot of secret food ingredients and several extra materials.
Next, he prepared to make several special skill-enhancing foods to boost his strength!
after all……
What he has to do next is rather troublesome, otherwise...
There's no way to break through the sky at Beijing University!
