Prodigal System in the Flourishing City-Chapter 1221: Jianghu Turmoil (2/5)

In the Jianghu, as the news of Lu Xiaobu’s punch killing the Grandmaster spread, there was an instant uproar!

Well, the Xue Family spared Mo Wentian some dignity and didn’t say he was crushed directly, but rather punch killed.

After all, the term "crushed" is a bit unpleasant.

But even so, it still scared the people in Jianghu to death! 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

"What?! Lu Xiaobu punch killed Mo Wentian?! So ruthless?! Could it be a mistake in the transmission?! Is it Lu Xiaobu’s Grandmaster subordinate, or did he order a Grandmaster to punch kill Mo Wentian?!"

"Yeah! I haven’t heard that Lu Xiaobu knows Kung Fu! Silently reaching the level of a Grandmaster! And capable of killing a Grandmaster?!"

"If you said Lu Xiaobu set a bounty to hunt down Grandmasters, I’d believe it! After all, Lu Xiaobu is a madman! But, Lu Xiaobu personally killed a Grandmaster?! This is too preposterous!"

"Who wouldn’t say so! I don’t believe it!"

"What can disbelief change?! This came from the Xue Family, and many people have already asked the Grandmasters who attended the Master Token event, so presumably we’ll have answers soon enough!"

"News is here! Here! The Grandmasters said, this matter, is true!"

"What? It’s actually true?! Lu Xiaobu really punch killed a Grandmaster?!"

"Terrifying! Lu Xiaobu must be crazy!"

"Exactly! What does debuting at the peak mean? This is debuting at the peak! Previously silent, now suddenly taking out a long-renowned Grandmaster?!"

"Oh my God! This is a Grandmaster! A Grandmaster!"

"Lu Xiaobu must be crazy! From now on, Lu Xiaobu’s name will have a significant place in the Jianghu!"

"Irresistible! Irresistible!"

"..."

All the people of Jianghu were shocked by this news!

They were skeptical, they didn’t believe!

Some even suspected that the Grandmasters in the Master Token event might have teamed up to kill Mo Wentian and pushed the matter onto Lu Xiaobu!

After all, this really seemed too fake!

Lu Xiaobu killed a Grandmaster?! This matter alone was unbelievable!

But it wasn’t just a killing, it was punch killing too!

The punch kill is interesting, usually, this term is not used, and when it is, it means the encounter didn’t last beyond five moves before being punched to death!

Listen to this, Mo Wentian, a Grandmaster, couldn’t last five moves against Lu Xiaobu, a wastrel?!

Do you believe this?!

Just like saying our Heavenly Dynasty’s top ping pong players wouldn’t win a single match against some foreigners—it’s absurd!

Everyone knows the levels in ping pong are: beginner level, normal level, nightmare level, Hell level, Heavenly Dynasty team level!

Alright, let’s not digress.

Regardless, they just didn’t believe it.

Consequently, this led to an occurrence, where many Grandmasters began heading to Shimen!

Previously, some had other matters or simply didn’t want to participate, and thus didn’t attend.

But now things were different!

Their pride in their Grandmaster identity and strength had been shattered by a wastrel!

A Grandmaster was killed?!

They definitely had to see what really happened!

Even if Lu Xiaobu truly killed Mo Wentian, they had to see it for themselves!

So, just on the day the news spread, three more Grandmasters arrived at Shimen, lodging at Thunder God E-sports Hall!

Two of them had some relations with the Grandmasters from the Master Token event and went directly to inquire.

And the remaining one was a loose cultivator Grandmaster like Ye Changsheng.

His name was quite special, Fei Yijian!

This was not his original name; it’s assumed to be a title!

This title had some relations with Ye Changsheng!

Ye Changsheng also had a title, Changsheng, which was incredibly imposing!

Unimpressed, he changed his name to Fei Yijian, meaning he needed no more than one sword to kill anyone!

Fei Yijian arrived at Thunder God E-sports Hall without a clue of where to start!

He and Ye Changsheng shared similar situations; neither was well-received!

So now, wanting to inquire about the news, he didn’t know who to approach.

Ultimately, he had no choice but to shamelessly approach Wu Weizi and Ling Xiaozi.

"Greetings, Dao friends." Fei Yijian said, upon entering the room.

"What do you want?" Ling Xiaozi frowned.

He despised this Fei Yijian.

Ye Changsheng may have been excessive or manic in his doings, but he was at least relatively normal.

But this Fei Yijian?!

Solely from wanting to match Ye Changsheng and thus changing his name, he was clearly a fool!

A fool rarely seen within the realm of Grandmasters.

Virtually doing things without using much brain!

You may ask why changing a name would merit calling someone a fool?!

The reason is simple. This guy didn’t even use a sword, practicing Cross Training, fighting solely with iron fists!

But for the sake of showing off, he insisted on calling himself Fei Yijian.

What is that if not foolishness?!

"I just want to inquire about the news." Fei Yijian grinned, "Did Lu Xiaobu punch kill Mo Wentian, is it true?"

"True." Wu Weizi, feeling too lazy to engage further with him, replied succinctly, "You can leave now."

"Oh my God! Tell me the details! The details!" Fei Yijian, nonetheless, had an eagerness in his eyes.

"No real details, just Lu Xiaobu grabbed Mo Wentian and squeezed, blew him up." Ling Xiaozi replied impatiently.

"Hold on! What?! Squeezed and blew him up?! Not punch killed?!" Fei Yijian was taken aback.

Oh crap! The difference between squeezed and punch killed is worlds apart!

"No, you just need to know this, don’t spread it around!" Wu Weizi quickly cautioned.

The term "squeezed" was indeed unpleasant, better left within the Grandmaster circles.

But if released outside, who would still take Grandmasters seriously?!

A Grandmaster was squeezed to death; how much deterrence does the supposed untouchable Grandmaster title still hold?!

"I understand, I understand." Fei Yijian, looking puzzled, walked out of the room.

Then, in the next second, the entire Jianghu inexplicably knew Mo Wentian was squeezed by Lu Xiaobu’s slap!

When Ling Xiaozi and Wu Weizi learned of this, they were ready to stab this brainless fool with swords!

Told you not to spread it, yet it didn’t even last an hour?!

Now it’s worse off, not just the apparent Grandmasters but also numerous venerable oldies are restless!

A Grandmaster was squeezed to death?!

Then how strong is Lu Xiaobu, really?!

No way! They must go and see for confirmation!

Otherwise, one day when facing Lu Xiaobu and being abruptly killed, they wouldn’t even know why!

There it goes! Now it’s escalating even further!

Fifteen Grandmasters?! Now it’s likely to double!

This many Grandmasters gathering in Shimen city?! Everyone’s tensed up!
