Prodigal System in the Flourishing City

Chapter 1666: Chapter 1668: Right Before His Eyes

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

In these short three days, Lu Xiaobu felt as if he was living a year for each day.

For the first time ever, someone who loved sleeping in had insomnia!

Insomnia for a full three days!

He couldn’t help it; he was anxious!

The seed, that seed felt like it was right in front of him!

Once he got the seed, he could go home!

Finally, one hour before the Secret Realm was set to open, Lu Xiaobu let out a long sigh of relief.

”You must be Master Lu Xiaobu, right?”

A slave suddenly ran over and spoke softly to Lu Xiaobu.

”I am. What’s up?” Lu Xiaobu frowned and asked.

He was waiting to enter the Secret Realm, and if anyone tried to cause trouble at this critical moment, not just anyone could handle his anger.

”My master sent me.”

The slave pointed to the black market token hanging on Lu Xiaobu’s waist as a reminder.

”Oh, that Sao Bao, huh? What’s up?” Lu Xiaobu nodded.

The slave smiled bitterly; he didn’t dare respond to that comment.

Sao Bao?!

The black market boss who could even compete with the City Lord was called Sao Bao by this man!

However, he knew a few things; the current black market centered around this person, and their boss had even directly confronted the City Lord and Yiji Mansion for him!

So, whatever he chooses to call them is fine!

”This is from our boss for you.” The slave pulled out a bundle and handed it over.

He still remembered how the boss cursed when sending him out!

Said something about— didn’t you say if you needed anything, you’d come get it? Yet, not taking even a single Spirit Stone, looking down on me? That’s fine, but shouldn’t you at least take a passage token? Seriously!

It was the first time he saw their boss, who usually took a piece of everything, go to such lengths to give someone something, refusing wasn’t an option!

Comparisons can be deadly!

”Alright. Got it.” Lu Xiaobu nodded and opened the bundle to check.

There were Spirit Stones, Elixirs, and even a token, along with a rough map, showing how much effort was put in.

”Then I’ll head back!” The slave saluted and left.

Lu Xiaobu hefted the bundle and turned to look at Wan Jian and Xiao Rou, ”Are you two going?”

”We can’t go.” Wan Jian said with a bitter smile, ”The blood aura in Qin Feng’s Secret Realm even corrodes normal humans, let alone people like us. The moment we step in, we’ll go berserk.”

”Yeah, I’ve heard about it too. There were attempts to organize inhuman slaves to explore, but once in, they all went berserk, not even afraid of the collars!” Xiao Rou added hesitantly.

”Alright then, you two stay here and wait for me to come back. Take care of yourselves. If something happens, just go find that Sao Bao from the black market.” Lu Xiaobu nodded, leaving the token Sao Bao gave him.

”Understood.” The two nodded in acknowledgement.

After saying goodbye to the two, Lu Xiaobu walked toward the entrance of Qin Feng’s Secret Realm.

The entrance was located at the top of a mountain just outside the city, where a large square had been constructed.

At this moment, the sky was filled with people heading toward the square.

Most were from small worlds with eyes almost red with excitement, but some were locals hoping for a chance at fortune.

Among them was someone familiar to Lu Xiaobu.

Someone he’d often seen at the tavern over the past three days, raised in a greenhouse, ignoring his keeper’s advice, always wanting to sneak into Qin Feng’s Secret Realm out of curiosity!

Unexpectedly, he dared to sneak out.

Lu Xiaobu shook his head, choosing not to pay further attention to this guy, someone who’s curiosity was bound to bring trouble.

Didn’t he see the people from small worlds already almost red-eyed before entering the Secret Realm?

Once inside, without anyone to manage, that curious guy would be easy prey!

In fact, Lu Xiaobu was even tempted himself.

This young master definitely carried protective gear, at the very least something to save him during the late Nascent Soul Stage.

But business came first, so Lu Xiaobu decided to ignore this guy.

Soon, Lu Xiaobu reached the outer side of the square.

Looking over, the massive square was packed with people, and in the foremost position were two pillars, about ten meters high and as wide as two people’s embrace.

Without a doubt, these two pillars marked the entrance to Qin Feng’s Secret Realm.

However, at this moment, Lu Xiaobu couldn’t enter the square yet; he still needed to undergo an inspection outside.

This inspection targeted certain individuals.

Like inhumans, or those from the Demon Realm!

Of course, Lu Xiaobu didn’t need to undergo inspection, since he had the token Sao Bao prepared for him.

This thing acted as a guarantee.

So, Lu Xiaobu walked directly past the line to the front.

Seeing his actions, those in line showed mockery on their faces.

”Is this guy trying to cut in line or what?”

”It sure looks like it!”

”Then he’s done for. I just saw a mid-Golden Core fellow trying to cut and got smacked away!”

”Let him go, who does he think he is? If he gets smacked away, it’s one less competitor for us!”

”...”

On a rainy day with nothing else to do, seeing a unique character like Lu Xiaobu, this group couldn’t help but gossip about him.

But none had anything nice to say.

Nor would they have any nice things to say.

After all, anyone wanting in was a potential competitor.

However, to their shock, they saw Lu Xiaobu walk right in!

No one stopped him?!

How was that possible?!

What just happened?!

”Why does he get to go right in?!”

Someone discontented immediately shouted.

”Shut up! If you have complaints, get lost!”

But the person responsible for the inspection silenced everyone with just one remark!

He wasn’t about to explain anything about tokens to these people!

Instantly, everyone fell silent, intimidated.

However, they’d all remembered Lu Xiaobu’s face, each with complex looks, making their own plans with troubled minds.

Ignoring them, Lu Xiaobu entered the square and sat down in an empty spot.

The Knight Robot was at his feet at this moment—underground.

Without any life energy, it wouldn’t attract anyone’s attention. Once they entered, he’d take it with him to avoid unnecessary trouble from its appearance!

Time slowly ticked by.

Finally, the entrance to the square was shut, and those who didn’t make it lost their chance.

Among them, the unwilling troublemakers were taught a harsh lesson!

Everyone knew the Secret Realm was about to begin.

You could clearly see the crowd, eyes already showing redness, intensifying further.

Even Lu Xiaobu had red in his eyes.

The seed was right in front of him, and so was the path home!
