Prodigal System in the Flourishing City

Chapter 1925 -1929: 100,000 Iron Cavalry, Return

Bu Yu Year Five, April 18th.

After the espionage incident and the green hat rebellion, the war clouds of the great world paused for a period of time.

Lin Island was still on the run, and the Heavenly Lord’s forces were still trying every means to find Lin Island’s whereabouts.

The Lu forces, however, expanded to include Gourd Island, Sword Island, Bitter Island, Thunder Island, and the eight islands they had just captured, twelve islands in total.

The entire great world fell into a strange tranquility.

However, today Gourd Island was not quiet, as everyone belonging to the Gourd Island forces stood silently by the sea, watching the distance.

Xin Lifeng, Liang Lan, Wu Qianmin, Little Pepper, Su Luoxue, Xue Lin, Xiao Zhi, Xiao Ya, Mr. Wang, Elder Yu, Lu Hongbin, the entire staff of the advisory group, Dragon Group’s Twelve Animals, local strongman Sao Bao, and other mid-to-high level members of the Lu forces were all present.

Confused, the cultivators were all puzzled as to why these usually elusive big shots had gathered here.

“Hey, is some big shot coming?”

“Big shot? How many big shots in this world would deserve such a lineup? Don’t forget, our Lu forces are already one of the three dominant powers in this world!”

“That’s true, maybe it’s the Heavenly Lord coming for peace talks, or Lin Feng coming to negotiate cooperation?”

“Keep dreaming!”

Some informed cultivators, hearing these foolish whispers, immediately scolded, “If you don’t know, don’t talk nonsense! Quickly move away! Whoever you think is coming, it won’t warrant such a lineup. This is the return of the Hundred Thousand Iron Cavalry!”

“Hundred Thousand Iron Cavalry?!” The cultivators gasped one by one, but instead of leaving, they quickly fell silent, standing obediently like the big shots, awaiting the event!

With Gourd Island defeating eight islands at once, the Hundred Thousand Iron Cavalry had become a legendary, mysterious force known by all in the great world.

Facing this absolute elite force of the Lu faction, this legendary unit, they couldn’t help but feel an enormous respect.

Upon hearing the reasoning, most cultivators shared the same thought, so gradually, the number of people gathered by the sea increased!

“I wonder, how many are left?”

Liang Lan stood by the sea, her clear and beautiful voice trembling slightly, her whole body even shaking.

In her heart, the Hundred Thousand Iron Cavalry was not some legendary unit or a mysterious force, but just the beloved employees of the Lu Group.

As the CEO of the Lu Group, although she always appeared regal in front of these guys, she wasn’t truly heartless!

In fact, aside from the young master, she was the most concerned about these employees!

The last time she heard about Liu Tiezhu’s situation, this usually strong woman had fainted several times hearing those names.

Xue Lin, standing beside her, held Liang Lan’s hand tightly, saying nothing, just comforting her silently.

She didn’t know what to say or how to comfort her, so she could only offer this silent solace to Liang Lan.

Xin Lifeng gazed silently at the distant sea, the months of war having made this already brilliant strategist the undisputed pillar of the Lu forces.

He single-handedly orchestrated several battles.

So, he knew better than anyone present, what lay behind the gloriously victorious one-against-eight battle.

Seeing those reports made even his scalp tingle!

Little Zhi, now a grown-up, stood by silently.

He kept calculating the remaining maneuvers in his mind, estimating the success rate.

Mr. Wang, Elder Yu, and the Dragon Group’s Twelve Animals all stood saluting, awaiting the return of the Hundred Thousand Iron Cavalry.

Soon, eight flying boats appeared not far away.

These flying boats were ordinary, but the flags fluttering upon them made them the most eye-catching presence under the heavens at this moment.

The flags bore four large characters—Hundred Thousand Iron Cavalry!

Upon seeing this flying boat, Liang Lan’s tears broke free.

Wu Qianmin and Su Luoxue were no exceptions, crying to the point of being unable to stand.

Little Pepper pursed her lips, trying to hold back her tears, but in vain.

Even Xue Lin, who didn’t have much attachment to the Hundred Thousand Iron Cavalry, cried like rain!

Because, each flying boat could hold at most five thousand people!

Hundred Thousand Iron Cavalry! A hundred thousand!

When they left, it was a grand spectacle, the transmission array roared for a whole day.

And when they returned, there were only these eight flying boats!

Soon.

The eight flying boats landed on Gourd Island.

“Hahaha, finally back!”

A robust man leapt off one of the boats, laughing heartily, “Damn! It’s been over two years! I’ve missed this place to death!”

It was Dawa.

“Wow! Dawa, you’re still alive you son of a gun!”

Another person jumped down from a different boat, looking surprised at Dawa.

“Erwa! Hahahaha! I’ve missed you to death! Come, man hug!”

Dawa laughed heartily and gave a bear hug.

“Get away with you!” Erwa cursed, but didn’t let go.

“Wow wow wow, you guys have gotten quite liberal in two years! We’ve been working together for so long, yet I only now find out you two have a thing going!”

A mischievous laugh came from Siwa.

“Siwa, you rascal, good people die young, but scoundrels last for a thousand years!” Dawa rolled his eyes and gave Siwa a bear hug.

Then. ℯℯ𝑙.

From several other flying boats, people came out carrying plates.

On the plates were small tags made of regular iron.

These were tags with Hundred Thousand Iron Cavalry engraved on the front and numbers on the back.

They respectively read.

Hundred Thousand Iron Cavalry 000002.

Hundred Thousand Iron Cavalry 000003.

Hundred Thousand Iron Cavalry 000005.

Hundred Thousand Iron Cavalry 000007.

“Looks like Erwa, Sanwa, Wuwa, QiWa, have all gone,” Dawa said, glancing at the tags.

“Yeah, they’re gone,” Erwa chuckled, “Those bastards, without them, we seem pretty useless.”

“Exactly! Those four rascals! They promised to come back for drinks!” Siwa grumbled, full of complaints.

Afterward, Dawa, Siwa, and Erwa each tore a tag from their chests and placed it in a plate alongside the four tags.

Hundred Thousand Iron Cavalry 000001.

Hundred Thousand Iron Cavalry 000002.

Hundred Thousand Iron Cavalry 000003.

Hundred Thousand Iron Cavalry 000004.

Hundred Thousand Iron Cavalry 000005.

Hundred Thousand Iron Cavalry 000006.

Hundred Thousand Iron Cavalry 000007.

Dawa held the plate, followed by Siwa and Erwa, heading toward the crowd, eyes fixed on Lu Xiaobu who had just arrived!

“Young Master Bu! Hundred Thousand Iron Cavalry! Seven Gourd Babies! All! Return!”

“Young Master Bu, eternal dominance, uniting Jianghu!”

“Hundred Thousand Iron Cavalry, blood not dry, battle does not cease!”
