Chapter 0241
While Wu Yu waited, Shen Xingyu appeared before him again, with her purple robes clinging tightly to her diva-like figure . She smiled, her eyes hungrily roaming over Wu Yu . "My dear little brother, you really surprised your big sister . Today's performance gave me a real shock . You look even more like an ultimate genius than you did the last time . "
"For that, I have to thank Sister Shen for your help, guidance, and nurturing . " Wu Yu could not help but feel gratitude towards this woman . If not for her, he would still be struggling for his life in Zhang Futu's sinister shadow .
"Just a small matter for me . " Shen Xingyu smiled sweetly, her dimples winking cutely . Her features were considered quite breathtaking .
Wu Yu was a little nervous . He did not know how the Galaxy Sword Sage would see his battle .
Almost as though reading Wu Yu's mind, Shen Xingyu smiled slightly . "As for him, he seems to find it acceptable, and is willing to continue observation . But I think that you must pull out an even better performance next time, or it will be hard to sustain his interest . "
Wu Yu was taken aback . Who would have thought that the Galaxy Sword Sage's expectations would be so high? He had just begun to gain a little confidence in himself, only to be kept on his toes again . He started to think about what he could have done better .
"Actually, I think your performance was fairly astounding . It's just this guy who is quite unfathomable . Best not to worry about him, and just focus on doing right by yourself," Shen Xingyu said softly into Wu Yu's ear .
Wu Yu nodded, saying, "That aside, I will endeavor to do better the next time I come . "
Any words said now were just hot air that might only earn the displeasure of the strange Galaxy Sword Sage .
"Alright, use your time well . You're now rank 100 on the Leaderboard of Swords and Immortals . Go forth and acquit yourself . " Shen Xingyu waved him off . She herself returned to the sky, but not before pausing to deliver a parting shot .
"No one interfere with Wu Yu . Let him decide his path by himself . "
Many were just preparing themselves to come and get to know Wu Yu . Many were disciples of the four major sword ranks who had come from the Clear Sky of Shushan . Hearing Shen Xingyu's words, which were practically the Galaxy Sword Sage's words, all of them were brought to a halt .
"Heard that? The Galaxy Sword Sage is not very satisfied with his performance!"
"It's going to be good . Let's see how much this Wu Yu can continue to strut . In truth, if not for the Galaxy Sword Sage's favor, he would be nothing at all!"
Faced with these sentiments, Wu Yu could only laugh bitterly . He understood that the path of cultivation would always be plagued with judgment . The only thing that decided everything was still his own actions and abilities .
If he was strong, then none of what they said mattered .
But Wu Yu could not seem to fathom the Galaxy Sword Sage . The one who had drastically changed Wu Yu's own fate - what was he actually thinking?
Till date, Wu Yu's only impression of him was a winking star up in the sky .
He broke away from the crowd, meeting up with Nangong Wei . She did not speak, but looked at Wu Yu with shining eyes .
"Big Brother, you basically brought about a miracle . To you, today's performance must have exceeded full marks!" Afraid that he might be dispirited, Nangong Wei hurriedly gave him some encouragement .
"Long roads and heavy struggles . This is just the beginning . " Wu Yu only had to think of how long the road to immortalhood was to calm himself down . It made him realize that the most important thing was to always take things one step at a time .
"I should continue to refine my Jindan and train my dao techniques . But I don't have a lot of merits with me now . I must use the remaining sparingly, and I can't afford to go to the Spiritual Sword Palace either . I can't always be cultivating on the road, and I can't go to other sword palaces, on fear of being chased out . . . . "
Just as he was worrying about this, Zhang Futu suddenly appeared nearby . He had actually been watching this battle from start to finish .
At this moment, Zhang Futu walked up with a sober and slightly frustrated expression . He said, "Wu Yu, congratulations to you . Your performance today surpassed my expectations . Perhaps only now do I truly realize that you are not someone who I can control . I underestimated you before . My apologies . . . . "
This was a personal conversation, and Wu Yu still considered this person an enemy . Therefore, he said, "It's too late for an apology . Just stay away from me in the future . "
Zhang Futu winced and said, "No problem . I just came to say that I'm moving on from this . From now on, just forget that this Zhang Futu ever existed . I'll not dare to appear before you again . "
He was very solemn and a little listless, his defeated expression tinged with worry .
"You must be worried that when I climb in the future, I will remember this grudge and come to bully you with my status!" Wu Yu said .
Although Zhang Futu had not done much to him before, those thoughts had crossed his mind before . To Wu Yu, that had been hard to forgive . After coming to Shushan, Zhang Futu had indeed been too frightening of a shadow .
"Indeed . . . . And now I have no other choice but to beg for your grace . After all, when that time comes, I will only be an insignificant character in your life," Zhang Futu said .
Wu Yu had initially thought of killing him as soon as possible . But here at Shushan, killing somebody - especially a Huang sword rank disciple - was no easy feat . Besides, he was not Zhang Futu's match right now . He still remembered this grudge, but he would set it aside for now as he pursued his own future .
Zhang Futu's plea had not moved him, but he still said, "Good that you know . If you covet things that do not belong to you, you must pay the price . As for what I decide in the future, perhaps you will not even be in my considerations . And I will not be bothered to look for you . "
