Chapter 641

~7 min read 1,318 words

The sweltering heat of summer and the need to work so diligently had long since left him feeling restless and hot.

Now, a basin of cool water could soothe all the pressure he was currently enduring.

Just then, a pigeon landed outside the window.

He only took one look, and his heart felt a bit uneasy.

So many years had passed, and he still hadn't received any news.

Now that there was news, it was clear it wasn't anything good.

The servant on the side had been quietly observing his expression; he immediately called for the person to leave, leaving him alone here to rest properly.

That pigeon flew into his hand, with a letter tied to its leg.

It was a letter Luo Bin Ke had written to him, explaining the events of this period.

Luo Bin Ke still found it hard to believe that he was just staying in this inn, constantly singing songs for the guests.

This letter was meant to ask him about his true thoughts.

"The day of our reunion has truly arrived."

"I thought everyone had met with disaster during this time."

Lu Ke looked at the light in his eyes as it dimmed a little.

Logically speaking, he should have received this news before that.

Instead of Luo Bin Ke sending him a message by pigeon, he should have been able to know so many things.

There must be someone operating in the shadows, and as for who it was, he already had an idea in his heart.

Soon, he picked up a pen and began to write on it.

He had to let the other partners know his current thoughts.

His hobbies were certainly important, but he also had to handle the vows between his partners well.

【Could Lu Ke really be decisively abandoning the Straw Hat Hall? Everyone is waiting for him to return! If he doesn't come back, how sad would Qiaobatuo be?】

【Why do I feel like he's been confined by this hateful boss? I just feel like something is wrong everywhere.】

【The person above is overthinking it; everyone knows that Lu Ke just really likes singing, and now it's just a matter of whether he's willing to choose his hobby or his companions... 0】

Lu Ke quickly finished writing the reply.

Taking advantage of the fact that no one was around, he tied the reply to the pigeon's leg and released it.

Hopefully, this letter could reach the hands of the person he missed as soon as possible.

At this point in time, have they all gathered on the war chariot?

He took a deep breath and made a decision.

He then went up to the stage.

Before singing, he had a very important matter to tell them.

All the guests cheered for him as they saw him take the stage again.

Seeing that so many people loved him so much, he was truly a bit reluctant.

But regarding this point, he also had to make it clear to them.

After all, he had already hidden a lot from them when he signed the contract with the boss before that.

Now, most of the guests thought he was just a famous performer from a good family.

In reality, he was a notorious martial arts hero.

In order not to let his conscience continue to suffer, he had to clarify this matter to them.

"Thank you all for always liking the music I create."

"Today's song might be the last one I sing for you..."

Before he could finish his sentence, the surrounding candles had all gone out.

He immediately knew that he was about to be surrounded and suppressed.

The guests under the stage were also shocked, not knowing what had happened; why did the candles here suddenly go out?

Could it be that no one was going to manage this?

Just as everyone felt bewildered, a large group of people dressed in black broke in.

Everyone was wearing a sword.

Just by this point, everyone knew what was happening right now.

"What's going on? Why are there so many Imperial Guards here?"

"I don't know; could it be that some criminal has appeared here?"

The scene was filled with panic.

Everyone was staring intently at the person on the stage.

That was one of their favorite famous performers, and they didn't want him to get hurt because of this turmoil.

"Lu Ke! I advise you to surrender quickly!"

"We suspect that you are the notorious martial arts hero, Lu Ke of the Straw Hat Hall!"

Regarding this accusation, Lu Ke did not make any reaction.

He just quietly waited for them to judge him.

Anyway, this day would eventually come, but it was just a pity that he would definitely need a little more time to reunite with his companions.

The people under the stage, upon hearing what the Imperial Guards said, naturally couldn't believe it; after all, they had been listening to his songs for so long.

This was, at the very least, a very sincere person; how could he be a notorious martial arts hero?

Furthermore, he was from the Straw Hat Hall!

"Didn't the Straw Hat Wang Lufei die two years ago?"

"That's right, how could they still be gathered together? And Lu Ke hasn't done anything during this time."

Everyone still firmly stood on Lu Ke's side.

Lu Ke looked at the situation before him and just stayed there quietly.

It was only because he already knew who had secretly communicated with the Imperial Guards and sold his information out.

Regarding this, he was somewhat shocked.

1.1 I didn't expect that the person I trusted the most would actually betray me like this now.

The boss didn't intend to keep pretending, so he went up to the stage with a long sword.

"Originally, your reputation was booming, and I wanted to use your fame to earn more money!"

"I didn't expect that you, this guy, would actually just tell me that you were leaving after singing one last song?"

The boss was truly very angry.

He had finally found such a way to make money, and he didn't expect that this path hadn't even been walked smoothly before it was broken by him like this.

Blocking his path to making money was undoubtedly taking his life.

How could he just stand by and watch?

Lu Ke just looked at the person before him quietly.

He had already prepared the money to redeem himself.

But he didn't expect that the contract the boss had set before that was even more overbearing.

He felt that he was now not even as good as the maids sweeping the backyards of wealthy families.

"Don't forget that you signed a deed of sale with me! Without my permission, you cannot leave!"

"I already knew about your identity as a martial arts hero before that, and now that you want to leave, I cannot keep you!"

The boss drew a long sword and pointed it at Lu Ke.

【I knew this boss wasn't a good person; I thought he was deliberately hiding Lu Ke's identity and helping him fulfill this wish! I was completely wrong!】

【This boss is too hateful! Because he can't earn money anymore, he wants to destroy someone like this?】

【Poor Lu Ke, did he really just become the boss's money-making tool for nothing these past two years?】

【In my opinion, an inn like this should go bankrupt!】

【This boss actually went to notify that group of Imperial Guards to catch Lu Ke; Lu Ke has truly been backstabbed this time!】

【Doesn't that mean he's about to be taken away by the Imperial Guards now?】

【If you say it like that, isn't that underestimating Lu Ke's strength too much?】.

265 Every member is unique! I will give them respect! The highest

【Wait, could it be that the two of them are going over there now?】
