Prodigal System in the Flourishing City-Chapter 1378 - 1380: You Really Have No Shame

The old madman heard Lu Xiaobu’s words and swallowed nervously.

It wasn’t out of greed, but fear!

With the family’s submission, he understood just how reckless the person before him truly was!

If he didn’t deliver today, it was possible he’d die here!

But, if he did deliver, how much longer could he survive?!

Many knew his cultivation technique had flaws, but none knew why it drove others insane after practicing it, except him!

The reason lies in the treasure!

The treasure could purify the impurities within his body, making his energy more pure.

That’s the reason he’s not gone mad!

And now, Lu Xiaobu wants to take it!

He really doesn’t want to give it up!

"No need to hurry."

At this moment, Lu Xiaobu spoke again.

The old madman was taken aback, unsure of what he meant.

However, the next words instantly made his heart race with fear!

"Wait until Ye Changsheng and Ni Huang come out, listen to their decision. If Ni Huang refuses, you can let Ye Changsheng vent on her instead." Lu Xiaobu’s calm words came through.

Yet in a single understated sentence, the old madman felt as if he was encased in ice!

What is this supposed to mean?!

It means if Ni Huang refuses, then she’s doomed today!

Lu Xiaobu is utterly indifferent to Ye Changsheng’s feelings?!

How can Lu Xiaobu be this cold-blooded?!

The old madman suddenly gave a bitter smile—What kind of madman am I? What kind of demon?! The true madman and demon is right here!

At this moment, Ni Huang and Ye Changsheng walked out.

Having heard Lu Xiaobu’s words, Ni Huang coldly asked, "If I don’t give it, would you really kill me?"

"Did you hear?" Lu Xiaobu smiled.

However, his gaze turned to Ni Huang’s hand, which was tightly held by Ye Changsheng at this moment.

Clearly, regardless of any persuasion, there seemed to be some misunderstanding resolved between the two of them.

"Answer my question." Ni Huang’s voice was icy cold.

"Why wouldn’t I?" Lu Xiaobu tilted his head and asked, "Do you want to plead with me as Ye Changsheng’s wife for me to spare you, or do you think your status should earn you leniency?"

"Of course not! You have no right to look down on me!" Ni Huang said coldly, but her face unwittingly flushed with a hint of red!

Her response was essentially an admission of Lu Xiaobu’s words.

"Alright then, since you don’t want me to look down on you! Why should I spare you then?" Lu Xiaobu smiled: "Isn’t this a paradox!"

Ni Huang fell silent.

Yet, Ye Changsheng squeezed her hand: "It’s okay, don’t worry, I’m with you!"

A simple promise!

But it’s no less a commitment to stand together through life and death for decades.

Ni Huang instinctively tightened her grip on Ye Changsheng’s hand, and after a moment, she slowly opened up, "I have a condition."

"Speak." Lu Xiaobu nodded.

"My sister is surviving by keeping the item. If you can let my sister survive, then the item is yours!" Ni Huang said plainly, "Otherwise, let’s fight!"

"Alright, I agree to the condition." Lu Xiaobu nodded to indicate no problem.

"Next, it’s your turn, old madman." Lu Xiaobu looked at the old madman and said calmly, "You’re lucky, aren’t you?"

"Yes!" The old madman said bitterly.

Indeed, lucky!

If Ni Huang had refused and fought to the end, no matter if he handed it over or not, he’d be targeted!

Given the current situation, Lu Xiaobu wouldn’t even need to lift a finger—someone would hurry to deal with him!

"I have a condition too." The old madman bitterly opened his mouth: "Let me live! Or keep me sane!"

"No problem, I can agree too, but I promised one of my subordinates to let him vent, you don’t mind, do you."

Lu Xiaobu looked blandly at the old madman.

"Fine!" The old madman replied helplessly.

What does it mean to be rendered helpless?

This is exactly being rendered helpless!

"Alright then, just like Ni Huang, I can promise that if you or Ni Huang’s families come to me, and I can’t solve your problems, I won’t take your things." Lu Xiaobu nodded and said: "I’m pretty fair."

Ni Huang: "You keep your word?"

"You can ask Ye Changsheng." Lu Xiaobu chuckled.

After saying this, he turned to Master Zhi Xing: "Master Zhi Xing, have you considered?"

"Alas! Amitabha! I’m at the mercy of the benefactor!" Master Zhi Xing sighed, helplessly speaking.

As Lu Xiaobu said, whether he agreed or not, it’s only a matter of choice between being passive and active!

"Okay! Then today we conclude this harmonious and pleasant Master Token gathering!" Lu Xiaobu laughed warmly.

Hearing this, the atmosphere inside Medicine King Valley’s Inner Valley breathed a collective sigh of relief.

Finally, it ended!

Today’s experience was enough—they absolutely didn’t want a repeat in their lifetime!

Nonetheless, Lu Xiaobu, how shameless are you!

Harmonious and pleasant?!

How do you even have the face to say these two words?!

From the damn start, it was all threats, wasn’t it?!

Are you not ashamed?!

"Oh, by the way!" Lu Xiaobu suddenly added.

The atmosphere at the scene suddenly tensed up again.

What trick is Lu Xiaobu up to now?

"Relax." Lu Xiaobu smiled, "Just a reminder, within three days, I want to see the cultivation technique. If the time comes and it’s not here, I’ll drive to collect!"

Lu Xiaobu pointed outside Medicine King Valley, clearly reminding everyone of the vehicle!

The Grandmasters nodded with gloomy faces.

See?

In the end, he still had to threaten us!

And harmonious and pleasant?!

Harmonious?! Harmonious my foot!

Pleasant?! Just damn him, one person happy!

"And to remind, I’ll have someone test the cultivation techniques you send. If it’s fake..." Lu Xiaobu grinned wide, showing his sharp white teeth: "Fake one and I’m compensated ten times."

The crowd was taken aback. What does fake one compensate ten mean?

Can a cultivation technique be compensated tenfold?

"I mean if someone practices your technique and encounters issues, you compensate with ten lives! Two issues mean twenty lives! This deal’s quite fair, right?" Lu Xiaobu gently laughed.

The Grandmasters felt as if plunged into icy depths, speechless with fear!

They swore, barring unforeseen circumstances, they’d never participate in this damn Master Token again!

Especially one hosted by Lu Xiaobu!

He took the cultivation techniques this time; would he take their freedom next time?!

No way! No way! They can’t participate again!

But just as they thought that.

"Oh, by the way, if I discover the secrets of the Five Elements, there might be another Master Token gathering. Everyone can see for themselves, feel free to join." Lu Xiaobu nodded again, speaking.

The Grandmasters froze, and then one by one laughed, "We will, definitely join then!"

Oh dear! How enticing!
