Prodigal System in the Flourishing City

Chapter 1222: Chapter 1222: Doubled (3/5)

The matters of the Jianghu, Lu Xiaobu currently has no mood to handle.

He is now holding a funeral for Duan Yue.

Although this elderly man was not always with him, he was later found and brought in by him!

However, the merits of the time this elder spent with Lu’s father are clearly unforgettable!

The memorial hall was set up in the Lu Family.

Lu’s father, almost fully recovered, sat by and looked at the black and white photo of Duan Yue, feeling a mix of emotions in his heart!

”Old buddy! I remember just a few days ago we said that when Xiaobu has a grandchild, the two of us old folks will find a place to retire!”

”With you by my side, Xiaobu and the others can also be at ease!”

”Who would have thought, in such a short time?! You would leave!”

”I let you down, our Lu family let you down! If it weren’t for me, this wouldn’t have happened to you!”

Do you know why, when people are old, they often refer to their significant other as their companion?

Actually, at this age, the other half truly becomes a companion, more about companionship!

Together eating, sleeping, playing, enjoying the twilight years in peace!

Reversely speaking, a companion really doesn’t have to be of the opposite sex; it can also be the same sex.

Old Duan was essentially a companion for Lu’s father; perhaps not a spouse, but definitely a partner!

Now, with Old Duan leaving like this, and even leaving to protect Lu’s father, how could Lu’s father feel okay?!

”Girl, kowtow to your Grandpa Duan.”

At this moment, Lu’s father said to the young girl beside him, whose eyes were swollen from crying.

”Grandpa Duan, I kowtow to you!” The little girl knelt on the ground, sobbing uncontrollably!

Lu Hongbin and Lu Wenhuo were accompanying her on the side, but did not try to console her.

They knew it was actually better to let the grief out.

Lu Xiaobu came in, holding a box, placed it on the altar, and then bowed: ”Old Duan, I, Lu Xiaobu, don’t want to say words like I’m sorry, I’ll only say, I avenged you! Here is Mo Wentian’s head, I hope you can smile in the afterlife!”

When Duan Yue’s family heard these words on the side, tears fell out.

Duan Yue was a martial artist, and as his family, they were not unfamiliar with the matters of the Jianghu!

”Dad! Did you hear that!? Young Master Bu avenged you! The Mo Wentian who killed you, even if he was a Grandmaster, has now been killed by Young Master Bu!”

”With a Grandmaster buried with you, you should be able to smile in the afterlife!”

Subsequently, Duan Yue’s family approached Lu Xiaobu: ”Young Master Bu, thank you!”

They were not unreasonable people.

Since their father held a guard’s position in the Lu family, his death in protecting someone was accepted, despite their grief, without resentment.

They were even filled with gratitude!

They understood very well the status and strength of a Grandmaster!

If they were in a different position where their bodyguard was killed, they would surely not want to offend a Grandmaster!

However, as for Young Master Bu, he didn’t even hesitate; let alone offending, he directly killed Mo Wentian and brought the opponent’s head to the shrine.

This was simply a huge kindness!

”Don’t call me a snob. The compensation has been sent over, and if you encounter any difficulties in life, feel free to speak out. If you want to work at the Lu Group, I can arrange it appropriately.” Lu Xiaobu patted the other person’s shoulder and said.

”Thank you, Young Master Bu!” the other person thanked immeasurably.

At this time Zhang Meng came in, bowed to the altar, and then said to Lu Xiaobu: ”Young Master, several Grandmasters wish to see Mo Wentian’s head to confirm he is dead.”

”Tell them, they can come in, but the deceased is of utmost importance, they must offer incense, otherwise no one is allowed!”

Lu Xiaobu said calmly: ”Also, warn them not to act high and mighty as Grandmasters, if I could crush one, I can crush the second one!”

This time, a huge amount was spent, with Charging Shield consuming fifteen billion, Dragon Capturing Hand consuming a wasteful amount of ten billion, and several attributes consuming over 1.2 billion combined.

This consumed more than half of the wasteful amount he accumulated before!

Now, there’s only a bit over ten billion of wasteful amount left!

However, Lu Xiaobu still considered and recharged the Charging Shield with over five billion, reaching the range of ten billion.

This left a wasteful amount of just five billion.

But, not to worry too much, he still had hundreds of billions of wealth value, and converting it was not too slow.

Lu Xiaobu’s words spread, resulting in all Grandmasters turning away.

To offer incense to a deceased martial artist?!

They couldn’t afford that embarrassment!

...

The funeral lasted for three days.

It was not until the funeral concluded that Lu Xiaobu brought up the matter of the Master Token again.

”Xiaobu, you are finally here!” Xue Changzhi was almost in tears upon seeing Lu Xiaobu.

”What happened?” Lu Xiaobu was suddenly confused seeing Xue Changzhi in this state, what happened to this Family Head?

”What happened? Don’t you know, there are now thirty Grandmasters gathered at Shimen, including several old relics! Now Shimen can completely be described as a nuclear bomb ready to explode!” Xue Changzhi’s hands were even trembling a little.

Damn it!

He only personally held the Jianghu Order, and even fifteen Grandmasters’ Tokens were enough to make him excited!

Yet, suddenly there were thirty Grandmasters?!

At this number, instead of excitement, it was terrifying!

Even the officials were asking what exactly was happening?!

Why gather so many Grandmasters?!

He didn’t know how to answer either!

But Lu Xiaobu was busy with the funeral, completely ignoring these matters, so he didn’t sleep for even a moment these three days and nights!

Lu Xiaobu, my dear son-in-law, can we avoid making such a big deal every time?!

I am scared!

”So many came?” Lu Xiaobu also frowned slightly.

He thought fifteen Grandmasters were already quite a lot, but didn’t expect it actually doubled?!

It seems, the power of the Jianghu cannot be underestimated!

However, if these thirty Grandmasters all made him a cup of tea...

Tsk tsk tsk, interesting!

It seems, more preparations are needed!

”Let’s go! Let’s have a look!” Lu Xiaobu waved his hand, and everyone promptly followed Lu Xiaobu to leave!

Only Xue Changzhi did not move in his position.

He couldn’t go, at least not with Lu Xiaobu!

Otherwise, people might think that the Xue family had been merged by Lu, and then indeed some matters would be truly unspeakable!

This is for the good of the Xue family, and also for the good of Lu Xiaobu.

After all, with the Xue family maintaining a neutral stance, if anything happens, he could still mediate!

Otherwise, if people think they are now Lu, mediation would be impossible!

He sighed inwardly — my dear son-in-law, can we stay calm this time?!

However, he also knew, this was almost impossible!

Who doesn’t know the traits of Lu Xiaobu?!
