Prodigal System in the Flourishing City

Chapter 1379: Chapter 1381: What the Hell Kind of Setting Is This

Lu Xiaobu heard the grandmasters’ response and chuckled.

A very typical answer.

For these grandmasters who aim to either continue living or to enhance their cultivation, nothing can compare to such temptation!

Once the Five Elements are truly researched, if these people aren’t tempted, it would be surprising!

...

The Master Token has been perfectly wrapped up!

Lu Xiaobu returned to Shimen with the old madman, Ni Huang, Ye Changsheng, and Ni Huang’s sister.

In an instant, Shimen had three grandmasters, plus Lu Xiaobu as the honorary master.

It’s no surprise if Shimen is seen as a fortress now.

”Greetings, Master Lu.” Ni Huang’s sister, the old lady, bowed to Lu Xiaobu and then pulled out something from her bosom that looked like a pearl: ”This is what the master wants.”

”Mm, no rush.” Lu Xiaobu waved his hand: ”First, tell me how you use this thing to keep yourself alive.”

”I don’t know either.” The old lady chuckled bitterly: ”Anyway, as long as I leave this thing, I’ll rapidly age, though I’m already looking quite old now!”

When she spoke this, her mouth was filled with bitterness.

If she was alone, then old would just be old!

However, clearly her sister is still beautiful, yet she’s withered away; this kind of disparity and contrast is really deadly for a woman!

”Really?” Lu Xiaobu stroked his chin: ”Have you tried advancing to grandmaster?”

He thought of another solution.

If she became a grandmaster, wouldn’t that solve the problem!

”Tried.” The old lady chuckled bitterly again: ”But it couldn’t succeed.”

”What exactly is needed to advance to grandmaster?” Lu Xiaobu continued to ask.

”Becoming a grandmaster is actually a process of quantitative change to qualitative change.”

At this moment, Ye Changsheng walked over with Ni Huang: ”However, this process is uncontrollable. Some say it’s an epiphany, some say it’s a mindset, and some, like that fool Fei Yijian, say they just slept and broke through!”

”Wait, what did you say?” Lu Xiaobu raised his eyebrows.

”I said that fool Fei Yijian broke through just by sleeping.” Ye Changsheng smiled helplessly: ”Don’t doubt it, some people just have that kind of luck!”

”I meant your first sentence.” Lu Xiaobu seemed to realize something.

”I said it’s a process of quantitative change to qualitative change.”

Ye Changsheng was stunned, thinking Lu Xiaobu didn’t understand, so he explained: ”You know the grandmaster’s characteristic is the ability to let energy permeate from the body, and this energy is different from the energy inside a non-grandmaster’s body!”

”Why is it said that grandmasters are beings who have broken through human limits, and this qualitative change in energy is closely related!”

”Stop explaining.” Ni Huang rolled her eyes: ”Your master wasn’t listening.”

”What’s with ’my master’?” Ye Changsheng chuckled bitterly.

”What? Did I say something wrong?!” Ni Huang frowned.

”No, everything you say is right, whatever you say goes!” Ye Changsheng backed down in a second!

Ah, the sour smell of romance!

But Ni Huang was right, Lu Xiaobu definitely wasn’t listening to Ye Changsheng’s explanation.

His mind was now entirely focused on that term — quantitative change to qualitative change!

Isn’t this just like an upgrade feature introduction?!

Then, could it also let the old lady directly upgrade?!

Feeling a bit eager to try this, isn’t he?!

But, what if it fails, and explodes?!

Lu Xiaobu hesitated.

”Does Master Lu have a way?” The old lady saw Lu Xiaobu’s hesitation.

”Indeed, there is a way, but regarding safety, I can’t say much.” Lu Xiaobu nodded.

”Then give it a try!” The old lady smiled, her expression relaxed: ”Besides, the current situation is no different from being dead!”

”No way!” Ni Huang immediately stopped them: ”Absolutely not!”

Then, Ni Huang looked at Lu Xiaobu: ”You said you’d solve it, not kill her!”

She was scared!

Scared of losing her sister!

”Sis, let me try; I’ve lived long enough.” The old lady continued to smile freely: ”In this state, people avoid me on the street.”

Behind her carefree smile was bitterness!

”Is there any other way?” Ye Changsheng looked at Lu Xiaobu and asked.

”Another way?” Lu Xiaobu frowned.

Suddenly, he thought of something: ”By the way, can your grandmasters transfer skills like in those novels? The kind that goes ’hmm ha’ to transfer skills!”

”Transfer skills?” Ye Changsheng’s mouth twitched: ”I understand your meaning, no need for sound effects.”

Hmm ha, what nonsense is that?!

”Cultivators of the same cultivation technique can transfer skills in small amounts.” Ni Huang explained: ”But, this energy would only be consumed and cannot cause a qualitative change.”

”Then can you let the energy break out of the body?” Lu Xiaobu then looked at the old lady.

He had an idea, maybe he didn’t have to upgrade the whole, just upgrade the energy.

”Didn’t I say it? Only a grandmaster can separate energy from the body!” Ye Changsheng smiled bitterly.

Has Lu Xiaobu not been listening to him?

”Then there’s no way.” Lu Xiaobu shrugged and said helplessly.

If he can’t see or touch it, he definitely can’t upgrade it!

”No wait, she can! She can let energy separate from the body!” Ni Huang suddenly said at this moment.

”What?” Ye Changsheng was stunned: ”How could it be possible?”

”I tried!” Ni Huang stated: ”I can use my energy to trigger the energy in her body, letting it briefly appear outside the body!”

”That can work then; it’s worth trying, and the risk is low.” Lu Xiaobu raised his eyebrows.

That solves it then!

However.

”But...” Ni Huang hesitated, paused, and then said: ”But it must be at the dantian location, and the whole body can’t have any clothing obstruction.”

She wasn’t foolish; since Lu Xiaobu asked about this, he definitely needed to use this energy.

Which means...

”What kind of setting is this?” Lu Xiaobu’s mouth twitched: ”I always thought that in dramas, those skill transfers without clothes were deliberately made to sell sex appeal by directors; I didn’t expect it to be real?!”

”I don’t know either.” Ni Huang was hesitant too: ”I just discovered it by chance; I don’t understand the specific principle.”

The two sisters sometimes bathed together, and not wearing clothes was normal.

But now, having her sister appear naked in front of Lu Xiaobu is really...

After all, her sister is also a woman!

She was hesitating.

Lu Xiaobu was hesitating too.

He really wasn’t prejudiced, but he is a normal young man!

Letting him see a fully wrinkled old lady, he’s afraid it would leave him traumatized!

What in the world is this setting?

Can’t it just be exposing the dantian area?!!
