Prodigal System in the Flourishing City

Chapter 1580: Chapter 1582: Acting on Orders

Bi Rong is dead.

The remaining cultivators from the Zhanlong Sect were also eliminated by Li Zhilai.

The reputation of being a prodigy was not undeserved. Although he couldn’t match Lu Xiaobu, with the cooperation of Lin Lei, Ah Da, and Ah Er, he didn’t take the few in the Foundation Establishment Stage seriously at all.

Lin Ren, Wu Wei, and Jiang Lei watched as the very beings that had cornered them to the brink of death were obliterated like a whirlwind, their eyes filled with indescribable expressions.

This is Lu Xiaobu?!

How long has it been since he left Linren City?

A week?!

And he can effortlessly blow up someone in the Golden Core Early Stage?!

Those at the Foundation Establishment Stage stood no chance at all in his hands?!

What has happened to this world?!

Is this still normal?

”Dad.” Lin Lei came to Lin Ren’s side, waking him from his dazed state: ”Don’t just stand around here.”

”Oh, right, right, right, everyone, please! Please!”

Lin Ren hurriedly suppressed his emotions and spoke.

The group arrived at the entrance of the City Lord Mansion.

Li Zhilai looked at the shabby City Lord Mansion and couldn’t help but shake his head. Is this Linren City’s City Lord Mansion? It doesn’t even look as good as his family’s General Residence!

However, at this moment, Lin Ren felt a different kind of emotion!

Just a while ago, right here, he thought he was a goner. Now, being able to return here, he felt a sense of having lived through ages.

”Please!”

Lin Ren didn’t waste much time and invited everyone inside.

When they arrived at the reception hall, Lin Ren suddenly found himself in a dilemma.

It was about the seating arrangement.

Although he was still nominally the City Lord and should sit in the City Lord’s seat, could he really sit there with peace of mind in front of Lu Xiaobu?!

As he hesitated, he saw Lu Xiaobu casually take a seat on the side.

This instantly allowed him to breathe a sigh of relief, and he looked at Lu Xiaobu with gratitude.

Everyone sat down, and Lin Ren stood in front of his seat, deeply bowing to Lu Xiaobu and Li Zhilai, as well as Ah Da and Ah Er: ”Thank you all for saving my life. Lin Ren will forever remember it!”

The few of them accepted his thanks without a fuss, as they deserved it.

”Dad, let me introduce you!” Lin Lei quickly said.

”This is Ah Da and Ah Er from the Violent Martial Class!” Lin Lei pointed to Ah Da and Ah Er speaking.

”The prodigies of the Violent Martial Class! Thank you! Thank you both!” Lin Ren had certainly heard of the Violent Martial Class, and upon hearing that his son actually knew such people, he was a bit excited.

”City Lord Lin is too kind. We were just following orders.” Ah Da and Ah Er replied.

”Orders?” Lin Ren was stunned.

He didn’t remember having such a great relationship over in Nanshan City, who could order the prodigies of the Violent Martial Class to help them?

At this moment, he didn’t even consider Lu Xiaobu.

After all, power is power, and influence is influence; the two are different.

However, since Lin Lei was still introducing, he temporarily put aside the question.

”This is Brother Li Zhilai; he is one of the three great prodigies of Nanshan City!” Lin Lei pointed at Li Zhilai and said.

”Oh my! I’ve heard of you for a long time!” Lin Ren’s eyes instantly lit up.

The three great prodigies!

He truly did not expect that one of them, Li Zhilai, would come to their small city.

It’s not an exaggeration to say that just this alone is enough for him to brag about!

”I’m also following orders, City Lord Lin, no need to be like this.” Li Zhilai said almost the same words as Ah Da and Ah Er.

They really only came here for Lu Xiaobu.

Otherwise, who would stand against the Zhanlong Sect for just Linren City?

Especially when there’s even someone at the Golden Core Early Stage involved.

”Hmm?!”

Lin Ren was stunned.

He thought the prodigies of the Violent Martial Class were ordered by this prodigy, but it turned out this prodigy was also following orders?

He couldn’t help but quietly ask Lin Lei, ”Who exactly sent everyone to help us? Tell me, I’ll find some time to pay a visit!”

This is a huge favor!

”It’s the Young Master.” Lin Lei shrugged and said, ”The Young Master is now the dean of the Martial Arts Academy at Nanshan Academy, and we are all his students.”

”Oh, the dean.” Lin Ren subconsciously nodded.

Then!

He suddenly jumped three feet high: ”What?! The dean?! The dean of Nanshan Academy?!”

As he yelled, he looked in disbelief at Lu Xiaobu, who was sitting there drinking tea!

How is that possible?!

The dean?!

Although he didn’t know when Nanshan Academy came up with a dean position, seeing that even one of the three great prodigies, Li Zhilai, was his student, he could guess what kind of status it was!

This... how could it be?!

Just said it, Lu Xiaobu had only left Linren City a week ago!

In just a week, not only could his strength crush someone in the Golden Core Early Stage, but he also became the dean of Nanshan Academy?!

This is... too incredible, even bizarre!

As the City Lord, he certainly knows the importance of a school to a city, and he also knows not just anyone can hold a position at a school.

Even the most basic teacher generally needs to be a local, unless you’re someone with incredible talent.

However, Lu Xiaobu, nominally someone from Linren City, had such a brief leaving period and got a position at Nanshan Academy!?

This... this... this...

He looked at Lu Xiaobu with eyes filled with awe and astoundment!

He also finally understood who exactly Li Zhilai and Ah Da, Ah Er were ordered by!

Beside them, Wu Wei and Jiang Lei also gulped hard.

My heavens!

Even if a teacher from Nanshan City came, they would try to cozy up for a long time.

And now, Lu Xiaobu suddenly turned into the dean of Nanshan Academy?!

This...

They could only say that life is truly too wonderful, too crazy.

At the same time, they started to feel excited.

This is fantastic!

Now, the Jiang Family and Wu Family are essentially working for Lu Xiaobu; their sons are also Lu Xiaobu’s followers.

With this, the stronger Lu Xiaobu becomes, the better for them!

”Alright, now tell me about the recent income, how did the Zhanlong Sect come to target us?” Lu Xiaobu asked.

The cigarettes were just produced a week ago, how did the Zhanlong Sect fix its gaze on them?

Hearing Lu Xiaobu’s question, Li Zhilai and Ah Da, Ah Er also became interested.

Yes, what value could Linren City hold that was worth such a huge cost for the Zhanlong Sect?!

To put it bluntly, they wouldn’t necessarily want to be City Lords here even given the opportunity.

After all, it’s too shabby; if they became City Lords, would they earn money? Not losing money would already be a blessing!

However!

When Wu Wei revealed the specific numbers, everyone was shocked, including Lu Xiaobu!

Too crazy!
