Prodigal System in the Flourishing City

Chapter 1777: Chapter 1780: Cultivating Gu

Upon hearing Xin Lifeng’s request, Lu Xiaobu smiled and then granted it.

Finally, when Xin Lifeng experienced his life being controlled by someone else, he actually breathed a sigh of relief.

Then he unexpectedly laughed: ”Now I guess I finally have someone I can trust!”

”Of course.” Lu Xiaobu also smiled.

”By the way, did you expect this move of mine?” Xin Lifeng asked again.

This decision was certainly to build mutual trust between him and Lu Xiaobu, but he also harbored the desire to do something unexpected for the other party!

This was his final act of pride!

”No.” Lu Xiaobu shook his head: ”But does it matter?”

Upon hearing this answer, Xin Lifeng laughed after a moment: ”Indeed, it doesn’t matter! My vision is still nowhere near yours!”

Yes, it doesn’t matter at all, whether Xin Lifeng was proactive or passive, the matter itself was fated.

So Lu Xiaobu didn’t even consider this.

It was rather ridiculous for him to try to show off with something the other party didn’t even consider.

Lu Xiaobu waved his hand: ”Alright, you’re a smart person, now I’m giving you the stage, go on, and give it your all! But be quick, my time is limited.”

”Ah? Time is limited?” Xin Lifeng was taken aback.

This remark from Lu Xiaobu really left him puzzled.

How could time be limited?

Not just considering cultivation, but given Lu Xiaobu’s scheming, Xin Lifeng completely believed that even if all the people in this world perished, Lu Xiaobu would survive.

”Indeed, there’s someone waiting for me, waiting for me to play chess.” Lu Xiaobu laughed and then turned to leave.

”Waiting for you to play chess?”

Xin Lifeng was once again taken aback.

But then a feeling of disbelief arose!

He certainly wasn’t naive enough to think it was actual chess.

Rather, it was the world as the board, all beings as pieces, both sides scheming, bloody conflicts!

This was easy to conceive.

What truly shocked him was that, surprisingly, there was someone who could play chess with the individual in front of him?!

A match of equals in chess?!

Someone who could play chess on equal footing with this individual in front of him?!

Too marvelous!

It was as if he had discovered a whole new world.

The presence of this world seemed to render everything else dim and dull!

He was like a child barely reaching the height of the chess table, trying desperately to tiptoe and catch a glimpse of the board.

While on either side of the table sat two smiling chess players.

He looked up to see these two players, discovering one of them was Lu Xiaobu, while he couldn’t clearly see the other!

”Yes, waiting for me to play chess.” Lu Xiaobu’s distant voice came over: ”Actually, to be honest, compared between the two, you are better suited to be his chess piece; he matches more with your imagined image of a hero! As for me, I am merely a wastrel!”

The voice grew softer, leaving behind a bemused Xin Lifeng!

...

On another island.

This is a picturesque small lake.

Beside the lake, a person is fishing, his long hair swaying, dressed as an immortal.

Behind him are two straw huts.

One seems to be the fisherman’s dwelling, while the other is empty, with no clue whom it’s reserved for.

”Clatter, clatter, clatter!”

Amid the heavy footsteps, a person walked in.

The person had a towering figure, a tiger-back bear-waist physique, and most terrifyingly, truly had a tiger’s head.

Demon Clan!

Half-transformed Demon Clan!

If only a Demon Clan, it would be fine, as this is the Cultivation World, having a Demon Clan would not be strange.

But what truly perplexed everyone was this Demon Clan’s attire.

A leather jacket on the upper body, camouflage pants on the lower.

And that wasn’t all; around the outside of the jacket were several loops of yellow-orange bullets.

On the back, he carried a thick cannon tube.

Altogether presenting the look of a modern-style mercenary!

In this world brimming with cultivators, he truly appeared as the demon of demons!

This tiger-headed demon approached the person dressed like an immortal.

The outfits of these two created an incredibly bizarre contrast here!

”Boom!”

Then the tiger-headed demon knelt on one knee: ”Master! I am back!”

”Can you avoid all these flashy antics? What’s the point?”

The immortal shook his head, stood up, looked at the tiger-headed demon’s modern style outfit, and listening to the peculiar address, felt speechless!

His Uncle finally managed to corrupt someone!

This immortal was surprisingly the unseen chess player by Xin Lifeng—Lin Feng!

His Uncle, referring to Lin Tianfu, was the highest-ranking member of the Lin Family brought over from Water Blue Star.

Of course, saying refers to the highest-ranking among those who survived.

Lin Tianfu’s stories from all ages and times ended up influencing the current appearance of the tiger-headed demon.

The tiger-headed demon touched his large head while laughing: ”It feels mighty!”

”If you were with the other fellow as your master, he would definitely outdo you in exuberance!” Lin Feng thought, chuckling: ”That fellow goes wild in a much grander scale!”

”Master! Master! I have no other master! Who is he?! Is he the master’s enemy?! Where is he?! I’ll go kill him!”

Upon hearing Lin Feng’s words, the tiger-headed demon was instantly flustered and murderous filled the air!

”He’s an enemy, and truly to be killed, but not now, and definitely not by you.” Lin Feng shook his head: ”I am the one destined to kill him.”

”No need, Master, just tell me where he is? I’ll go right now! No one deserves to make you act!” the tiger-headed demon shouted hastily.

”Shut up!”

”Bang!”

With Lin Feng’s roar, the tiger-headed demon’s massive body was promptly subdued and crushed to the ground by a foot.

Lin Feng gazed down at the tiger-headed demon, cold eyes glittering: ”I told you, I am the one destined to kill him! Whether he is worthy is up to me! However, you aren’t qualified to underestimate him! Because even I haven’t earned that right! Remember this!”

”Yes, yes, Master, I was wrong! I was wrong!” the tiger-headed demon shivered all over, and quickly pleaded.

”Enough, no more nonsense, now tell me how the task went?” Lin Feng spoke calmly.

”Done! At this moment, Gai City is nothing but ruins!” the tiger-headed demon quickly confirmed.

He initially wanted to praise the weapons Lin Feng gifted him as remarkably effective.

But recalling the look from earlier, he swallowed those words back!

”Alright, you may leave.” Lin Feng waved his hand.

The tiger-headed demon dared not say more, quickly departed!

After the tiger-headed demon left, another female cultivator entered: ”Young Master, we’ve already arranged people to gather those who luckily survived in Gai City!”

”Alright, organize them as before and start training.” Lin Feng gestured with his hand.

Yet the female cultivator bit her lip and suddenly asked: ”Young Master, what exactly are you gathering so many people for?”

”Huh?” Lin Feng slowly turned his head, his eyes flashing a menacing look, frightening the female cultivator away in panic.

And after she left, Lin Feng seemed to answer her question: ”Ever heard of cultivating Gu?”
