Prodigal System in the Flourishing City

Chapter 620: Chapter 618: Cold-blooded Lu Xiaobu [Fourth update, bonus Chapter for Alliance Hierarch Star’s 100,000 reward]

Due to Lin Feng’s reason, Lu Xiaobu released a message, announcing that on Saturday and Sunday, there will be two consecutive episodes.

Hearing this news, the audience did not react much, but people from the film and television companies were already laughing.

”Lu Xiaobu knows his poison, doesn’t he! Trying to retain viewers with more updates!”

”But it’s useless! It’s just like drinking poison to quench thirst!”

”Exactly, Lu Xiaobu’s ratings are definitely plummeting today!”

”...”

Lu Xiaobu’s additional episodes gave the film and television companies a false impression.

They felt that Lu Xiaobu was scared and trying to remedy the situation!

...

However, when the episodes started airing in the afternoon.

They were all shocked to the core!

Because, at this moment, the ratings changed!

Not just stabilized, but doubled!

However, it was Bright Sword that doubled Youth Never Falls Behind’s ratings!

They were all dumbfounded!

”Why is this? Didn’t the audience say they were going to abandon the show?!”

”Yeah, how come they said they would abandon the show, but the ratings increased instead!?”

”What the heck? Do the audiences all like this kind of stuff now?!”

”I need someone to explain this to me!”

”...”

”Alas, we’ve been fooling ourselves,” Chang Yong’an sighed.

He was the most captivated among them by Bright Sword, so he understood the audience’s hearts very well.

Honestly, yesterday, he really did want to abandon the show!

But as soon as it started airing today, he couldn’t help but switch on the TV and watched carefully!

He couldn’t resist!

He wanted to see the subsequent plot!

Think about it, if he felt this way, then the ordinary viewers would feel even more so!

Especially after hearing about the back-to-back episodes, they were even more excited and jumping for joy!

Lu Xiaobu, this stingy old bird, finally willing to pull out some feathers!

Chang Yong’an clenched his teeth, deeply puzzled as to why his reports had no effect at all so far!?

...

The plot following the firing of the cannons.

It was just as heart-wrenching.

Li Yunlong sitting in front of Xiu Xin’s grave, that lonely and helpless look, it was unbearable.

”So painful! I want to cry!”

”Li Yunlong finally found a caring and considerate wife, but she ends up buried by her own cannon within a day!”

”Ah! It hits right in the feels!”

”It seems Lu Xiaobu is really not going to let Xiu Xin come back to life!”

”Motherf**ker! It’s so upsetting!”

”...”

After this segment, the plot became relatively calmer, mainly focusing on the strife between Li Yunlong and Chu Yunfei.

This calm yet still captivating storyline allowed the audience to gradually recover from their emotions!

Many people ended up laughing heartily, feeling much better!

However, just when everyone thought everything was alright!

Something happened again!

Monk... is dead!

”Damn!”

Seeing the moment Monk’s head was chopped off, all the viewers cursed in unison!

Damn it, here we go again!

You have to know, although Monk was just a side character, merely Li Yunlong’s bodyguard.

But his high martial arts skills, his righteous and bold character mixed with his cunning nature, won him quite a few fans!

And now, such a vivid character just died so pathetically?!

And not at the hands of the cruel enemy but at the bandits, our own people from Heavenly Dynasty!

Who the hell can stand this?!

Xiu Xin was at least a sacrifice for the greater good of the nation, for resisting the Japanese!

But Monk, damn it, was killed by bandits and even got his head chopped off?!

Everyone lost it!

”Lu Xiaobu! Have you no end?! Monk, my Wei Monk!”

”You’re too cruel! Really too cruel!”

”Commander Li, avenge Monk Wei! Damn everything else!”

...

Li Yunlong did not let them down!

He ignored discipline and directly imprisoned Kong Jie!

With his men, he set off!

He blasted open the gates of Heiyun Village and wiped out those bandits!

”A life for a life, a debt repaid in full!”

Within these eight words, Li Yunlong used his knife to avenge the Monk!

How satisfying!

All the readers clenched their fists at this moment!

They condoned Li Yunlong’s actions but not Lu Xiaobu’s storyline!

Their love for Li Yunlong remained, but their hatred for Lu Xiaobu grew deep to the bone!

”One Xiu Xin is not enough, you also took Monk!? Lu Xiaobu, you’re truly cold-blooded!”

”Do you mean to leave Li Yunlong a lone soul? Do you want to turn him as cold-hearted as you?!”

”Lu Xiaobu, I learned for the first time just how ruthless you can be!”

”Li Yunlong has it so tough! This steely man, his life is so harsh!”

...

The audience cursed while they continued to watch episode eighteen!

Yes, the more they cursed, the more they watched!

It’s starting!

Just a few minutes into the episode, these viewers who had just felt sad burst into tears!

Li Yunlong: ”Monk, Monk, go get my...”

He couldn’t continue!

He stopped what he was doing and stood there in a daze.

Although he wasn’t crying, the expression on his face made it clear to the viewers — his heart was bleeding, he was crying on the inside!

”It’s so unbearable! I really can’t continue watching!”

”Yes, the last time Commander Li had that expression, it was when Xiu Xin sacrificed her life, right?”

”It’s so heartbreaking!”

”Lu Xiaobu, bastard!”

...

However, the end was not yet here.

Li Yunlong had a conversation with Zhao Gang.

An angry Zhao Gang landed a punch on Li Yunlong, severely scolding him for going too far!

Yet.

Li Yunlong: ”You, old Zhao, aren’t speaking with your conscience! I, Li Yunlong, have lost three things during your hospital stay! My wives killed by the enemy! My comrades-in-arms beheaded by bandits! And you, the Political Commissar, unconscious for twenty-three days!”

Li Yunlong turned slightly to the side, tears flickering in his eyes, his lips trembling: ”Even if it were a rock laid upon my chest, it should turn warm, no? I’m not made of iron! I have a heart, I have a liver, I have feelings too!”

At this point, Zhao Gang’s tears couldn’t be held back!

Such a tough man, and yet he’s crying!

”You say, in your absence, to whom can I turn?”

Li Yunlong roared!

With those words, the tears in Li Yunlong’s eyes were clearly visible!

As his tears flowed, the viewers started to cry one after another!

”Lu Xiaobu, look, look at what you’ve done to Commander Li!”

”He’s not made of iron! Who can bear such torment?! Can you?!”

”You are so cruel! Too cruel! I hate you, Lu Xiaobu!”

”How heartbreaking!”

...

But, they didn’t stay sad for long.

Seeing the scene where Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang smashed bottles and overturned tables.

They all laughed.

”Ha ha ha, a couple of big children!”

”You smash the bottle?! I’ll smash the bowl! And that’s not enough, I’ve got to overturn the table too! Hahaha!”

”I’m dying of laughter!”

”Wait a minute, wait a minute, I just laughed, and within two seconds, you want me to cry again?”

”Lu Xiaobu, you bastard!”

...

The Bright Sword plot has reached this point, and there’s actually not much more of the storyline to elaborate on!

But, one thing must be said!

”Japan announces unconditional surrender!”
