Prodigal System in the Flourishing City

Chapter 192: Chapter 192: Strive in Immortal Cultivation, You Will Surely Ascend [Please Favorite, Recommend]

Lu Xiaobu snorted coldly, breaking free from Zhang Baijun’s hold and striding into the studio.

Because he was irritated by Zhang Baijun, his face wasn’t looking too good.

This inadvertently added a sense of dignity.

”Teacher!”

”We want to learn the Nine Yin White Bone Claw!”

”And that... fixing overdue payments!”

”No, that’s not it, it’s Sleeve Universe!”

”...”

The white people were shouting excitedly one after another.

”Nonsense!”

Lu Xiaobu started to rebuke loudly!

With one sentence, all the white people were instantly stunned!

They were silent as if struck by a cold spell, not knowing what they had done wrong!

”Do you know what it means that ’the Way should not be conveyed lightly, and the law should not be transmitted to the uninitiated’? Are you bragging about it here because you want to do what exactly?! Do you want to attract the attention of Ancient Martial Artists and get yourselves eradicated?!”

Lu Xiaobu held a stern face, scolding them mercilessly.

With his tongue blooming with lotus flowers, he was able to easily convey the meaning to everyone!

Zhang Baijun was twitching at the door—no, how could you spout such nonsense with such justice and righteousness?! And the most ridiculous part is that the Americans actually believed it?!

Oh, for the love of—!

But Henry in the studio shuddered suddenly.

The Way should not be conveyed lightly, the law should not be transmitted to the uninitiated?!

He knew now!

He finally understood why he couldn’t learn before!

And also!

He... he... he did something wrong today too!

Yes, Heavenly Dynasty’s Kung Fu was never a skill to be loudly proclaimed!

Suddenly, his knees went weak, and he sat down on the floor.

The other white people were also frightened!

Not only were they worried that they might not learn Kung Fu, but they also started worrying about being silenced!

”I’ve got it!”

Henry’s mind worked quickly, his eyes suddenly lit up, he regained his composure, and then said to the camera, ”Haha, you’ve all been fooled! From beginning to end, it was all a performance together with me, Lu Xiaobu, including the beating and that branch, all props. Let’s thank Lu Xiaobu with applause!”

That’s right, the law should not be conveyed lightly, the Way should not be transmitted to the uninitiated, you can’t let everyone else learn it!

He wanted to learn it by himself!

He was such an idiot just now, why did he explain it to these people?!

Then he continued, ”Alright, that’s the end of today’s ’Henry Speaks’. Thank you all for watching!”

After speaking, he ordered the director to turn off the live broadcast!

”Good, that was well done, so I will teach you a mnemonic now! When you can truly understand this verse and translate it correctly in your mother tongue, then you can be considered to have started on the path. You’ll be ready to learn the true Immortal Cultivation!”

Lu Xiaobu spoke with a grave expression, spouting utter nonsense with all seriousness!

”Yes, Teacher!”

Henry was overjoyed.

However, when he looked down at the audience who were just as eagerly expectant as him, he immediately felt displeased!

Damn it, these vampires, the teacher was supposed to teach me!

And now Lu Xiaobu began.

”The Way that can be told of is not the unvarying Way; the name that can be named is not the unvarying name.”

”Nameless, it is the origin of all things; named, it is the mother of all things.”

”Thus, ever without desire, one sees its essence; ever with desire, one sees its manifestations.”

”These two are the same, but diverge in name as they issue forth. Being the same they are called mysteries, mystery upon mystery, the gateway of the manifold secrets.”

”...”

Yes, Lu Xiaobu began reciting the Tao Te Ching!

Why is it said that he’s reciting?!

Because, right now, he’s reading it from his phone, he can’t memorize it!

Now there are always some fools saying that the Heavenly Dynasty is way too backward, not as good as the West!

To Lu Xiaobu, that was just a bunch of nonsense!

How could the five-thousand-year heritage of the Heavenly Dynasty be inferior to the West?!

Every word summarized by our ancestors over five thousand years is worthy of countless generations’ admiration and worship!

What Westerners call unscientific and metaphysics is just a result of their misunderstanding!

But today, with the help of magical eloquence, they understood!

No no no!

Not understood!

It’s more accurate to say they got the gist!

They got the gist of these words!

Instantly, they were all besotted!

Each of them immersed in those profound words, utterly fascinated!

At the same time, their belief in what Lu Xiaobu said before became even stronger!

They want to comprehend this passage and articulate its true meaning in English, and then, they can begin Immortal Cultivation!

”Was Lu Xiaobu always such a scammer?”

At the door, Zhang Baijun looked up to the sky, speechlessly choked up!

This Lu Xiaobu was way too cunning!

Understand the Tao Te Ching?

Seriously, how many people from the Heavenly Dynasty genuinely understand the Tao Te Ching?!

Not to mention,

translating the Tao Te Ching into English?!

This is just an impossible problem, alright?!

To be honest, having been in America for so many years, this is the first time he’s found Americans to be so naive!

First, they believe in Immortal Cultivation, then in Heavenly Dynasty people being able to fly, and now, even better, they want to translate the Tao Te Ching into English!

Just go play on your own, will you?

Give yourselves another five hundred years, add a few thousand more words, and you’ll still not be able to translate it!

This here is the difference between Americans and people from the Heavenly Dynasty!

People from the Heavenly Dynasty know their own business. Whether it’s Zhang Baijun or any normal person from the Heavenly Dynasty, none of them ever believed what Lu Xiaobu said.

After all, they weren’t there at the scene, and the magical eloquence wouldn’t work on them.

Even if Lu Xiaobu really had a Cultivation Method, it would be the same!

But Americans are different, in their eyes, although the Heavenly Dynasty is relatively behind, it has always been a symbol of mystery!

And today, having seen with their own eyes, plus with Henry’s transformation from a critic to a fan of the Heavenly Dynasty,

their instinct is to believe!

This is actually the same principle as pyramid schemes; those who are clear-headed know that those kinds of activities are impossible to make money from, yet still, plenty of people believe in them!

So the Americans here might come to their senses later, but as of now, with their emotions running high, they definitely won’t realize!

...

After reading the Tao Te Ching, Lu Xiaobu left the studio graciously amidst people’s respectful send-off!

At this time, the FBI arrived and arrested the audience and Henry.

Henry kept shouting, ”Why are you arresting me? I want a lawyer; this is my show, it’s my right to joke, you have no right to arrest me!”

While shouting, he also gave Lu Xiaobu a resolute look—Teacher, I won’t spill the beans!

Lu Xiaobu nodded—Keep it up, work hard on your cultivation, and you will surely ascend!

Zhang Baijun slapped his forehead—This kid’s done for! Totally brainwashed!

Was Lu Xiaobu really that terrifying?

He believed that besides this Henry, there must be loads of people in America who’ve been brainwashed by Lu Xiaobu!

He couldn’t even imagine what these people might end up doing!

”Let’s go, let’s eat.”

Lu Xiaobu said to Zhang Baijun in high spirits: ”You said you’d cook for me!”

What a mess America was in, that wasn’t for him to worry about!

What he cared about was eating his fill, then it would be time for—League of Heroes!

Yes, League of Heroes can finally start!

So many nonsense issues day after day!
