Prodigal System in the Flourishing City

Chapter 121: Chapter 121 Put on a Show [Seeking Collections, Seeking Recommendations]

When Liang Lan told Lu Xiaobu about the need for a dinner party...

Lu Xiaobu was having Zhang Meng, Li Jin, and Li Qiang take turns to test who was suitable for cultivating the ”Green Emperor Longevity Technique.”

It turned out that Li Jin was the most suitable.

One reason was that he had eaten an Immortal Bean before, which healed his internal injuries.

Another was that, having been a Special Soldier, his body was stronger than ordinary people, so he was relatively more suitable for cultivation.

However, Li Jin’s expression was quite pained: ”Uh... Young Master, do I really need to practice this?”

Zhang Meng also had a slight smirk: ”If the Young Master tells you to practice, just practice. Why all the fuss?”

He didn’t believe in it either; he thought it was just something the Young Master took out for fun.

Li Jin cried out, ”Instructor, you just know how to set me up, right?”

”What? You all don’t believe it?”

Lu Xiaobu retorted.

”Cultivation, man, isn’t this only found in novels?”

Li Jin spoke with some difficulty: ”It’s not that I don’t believe the Young Master, it’s just that, you know!”

”Hey... look over here.”

Lu Xiaobu’s eyes twinkled—it was time to show off!

He picked up a withered branch from the ground that seemed to have been broken off by someone.

”Watch me inject spirit... no, inject vitality.”

Lu Xiaobu mobilized the little bit of True Qi in his body and injected it into the branch.

The branch, originally withered, as if injected with a stimulant, surprisingly started to rejuvenate.

The branch turned green, and even flower buds began to appear.

Finally!

It blossomed!

This scene shocked everyone!

They were all dumbfounded!

”Hisss! It’s actually real! Young Master, how did you do this? This can’t be explained by science anymore!”

Zhang Meng, usually unflappable, finally swallowed his disbelief and stretched out his hand to touch the flower that had just bloomed before his eyes.

”This... this... this, turning a withered branch into a blooming one in such a short time? Is this a miracle? Oh my goodness!”

Liang Lan’s legs were a bit weak, and she leaned on the car to support her body from falling.

Wu Qianmin, this little girl, had already had a brain freeze; although she looked in better condition than Liang Lan without weak legs, she was actually speechless.

Li Qiang couldn’t believe what he was seeing—had he just been holding a real Cultivation Technique?! My heavens!

”Young Master, are you saying that if I practice this, I can do this too?”

Li Jin looked at the branch and then at the ”Green Emperor Longevity Technique” in his hands, swallowing his saliva.

”Yes, indeed, this is just the lowest level of application. There are much more advanced techniques you will learn as you practice,” Lu Xiaobu nodded and said.

”Hisss!” Before Li Jin could react, Zhang Meng suddenly came to his senses, speaking eagerly: ”Young Master, actually, I think I can give it another try! Li Jin’s physical condition isn’t as good as mine.”

Previously, Zhang Meng thought Lu Xiaobu was just joking, but after witnessing this scene...

His martial arts soul began to blaze fervently!

From the past at the Night Drunkenness Bar where they used to tinker with ancient taverns with Lu Xiaobu, it was clear he always longed for such things.

Now that it was within reach, he had just given up!

He was filled with regret!

”Don’t even think about it! This is mine!”

Li Jin immediately retorted stiffly: ”This is given to me by the Young Master, none of you can snatch it!”

Zhang Meng gritted his teeth, full of resentment!

”Alright, this isn’t suitable for you, let Li Jin have it! I’ll get something else for you guys later.”

Lu Xiaobu shrugged his shoulders and said, ”Zhang Meng and Li Qiang, you will both have your opportunity.”

”Yes, Young Master!”

Zhang Meng sighed helplessly, glancing at a smug Li Jin and grinding his teeth: ”You kid better train hard and protect the Young Master diligently. If you don’t show some results, watch out, I will punch you myself!”

”Yes!” Li Jin quickly saluted!

Yet in Li Qiang’s eyes burst forth a divine light: ”Young Master, do I also have... have... have?”

It was unbelievable to him; he’s merely a bootlicker... uh, not even qualified to be called a bootlicker.

After all, a character like Brother Zhang Meng is a true bootlicker; he’s nothing!

But now the Young Master says he also has it!

This was so exciting it almost knocked him out!

Young Master Bu, as long as you still want me, I am your loyal dog!

”Stay loyal, since the Young Master said you have it, you will have everything that you’re supposed to have, you did well yesterday!”

Zhang Meng patted Li Qiang’s shoulder: ”From tomorrow, you’ll train with me, so when the Young Master gives you something, you’d be able to use it!”

”Yes!” Li Qiang shouted loudly, ”I will loyally serve the Young Master to the death! I’ll train fiercely!”

Just like that, the previous crowd who resisted the Green Emperor Longevity Technique are now all envious because of Lu Xiaobu’s showing off.

Among these people, only Zhou Jingyuan, the fiery hot pepper, looked at Lu Xiaobu and then at the Green Emperor Longevity Technique, muttering to herself, ”Xiaobu, you actually have such a thing! And you’re even willing to let others cultivate it! What should I say about you?”

”What do you mean? You know about this stuff?” Lu Xiaobu asked back.

”I know, actually, in our world...”

Zhou Jingyuan steadied her emotions, cleared her throat, and prepared to explain.

She still felt somewhat smug.

Lu Xiaobu, you still have to rely on me to explain to you?

What are you going to do without me!

Now you know how important I am!

And then...

”Oh, forget it, it’s not my concern.” Lu Xiaobu waved his hand, then turned to Liang Lan and said, ”Sister Lan, it’s about holding the banquet, right?”

”I!”

Zhou Jingyuan almost spit blood a distance of three kilometers.

She felt like rushing up to give Lu Xiaobu a piece of her mind.

”Damn it, you’re doing this on purpose, aren’t you?

I’ve already stripped down, and you’re playing this game?

Is a mere banquet more important than this matter?

At this moment, the usually calm Zhou Jingyuan, had the most resentment among these people!

Liang Lan took a deep breath, another deep breath, and yet another deep breath, forcing her emotions to calm down: ”Yes, Young Master, this is a banquet to celebrate your reaching the top spot on the Newcomer Rich List, you will host and decide the theme!”

”Hey, these people really, always holding banquets, don’t they do real work?” Lu Xiaobu rolled his eyes.

”Uh...” Liang Lan shook her head with a wry smile.

Young Master, do you think they want to?

It’s you who ascended too fast!

Normally it’s just once a year, but now it’s been held twice this year.

Plus, one time was because you joined the Newcomer Rich List, and the other was because you became the top one.

Wonder how many people are going to be pissed this time!

”Do you think they will come? A lot of people really hate me,” Lu Xiaobu stroked his chin and said.

”Young Master, this time is different from the last, it’s compulsory, precisely to showcase the power of being number one on the Newcomer Rich List. If someone doesn’t come, they will be removed from the Newcomer Rich List!” Liang Lan seriously replied.

”That’s acceptable.” Lu Xiaobu stroked his chin, then suddenly smiled: ”The theme of this banquet will be decided by me, right?”

”Yes.” Liang Lan felt something ominous.

It seems that Young Master is going to come up with some weird ideas again!
