Prodigal System in the Flourishing City-Chapter 1270 - 1272: Terrifying

The old poison still foolishly thinks his move isn’t a loss, but Ye Changsheng sees through everything.

Ye Changsheng guessed correctly, Lu Xiaobu indeed confirmed it.

Because, when he arranged for Zhang Meng to pick up Li Jin, he saw someone among the retreating Medicine King Valley people heading towards Outer Valley—Xiao Xiao!

And when Xiao Xiao showed up, as she gradually approached the sapling while walking, he clearly saw the energy inside the sapling leaning towards Xiao Xiao.

Although Xiao Xiao didn’t actively absorb the energy, the energy in the sapling wasn’t actually taken away.

However, the energy did indeed move!

Why would Xiao Xiao, who has no power, attract this energy? The only answer seems to be just one, right?!

At the moment the ancient tree was reborn, it was previously connected to Xiao Xiao and enhanced Xiao Xiao’s wood attribute!

So, the question that had been puzzling was destined to be answered at that moment!

It is precisely because of this that Lu Xiaobu abandoned better use of the old poison’s favor and chose to secure the permanent usage rights.

What does this mean?!

This means at least Li Jin’s path from now to Grandmaster and even beyond Grandmaster will face no major obstacles!

It also means Lu Xiaobu might cultivate what could possibly be the strongest person currently on Earth!

A true powerhouse, one who can directly kill a Grandmaster apart from him, the one using cheats!

In this way, the safety of his family, which he’s worried about, will be absolutely guaranteed!

Perfect!

Thinking about this, Lu Xiaobu couldn’t control the smile appearing on his face, and the smile gradually became audacious!

Ye Changsheng saw Lu Xiaobu’s smile and once again confirmed his thoughts.

Then, he cast a sympathetic glance at the old poison.

How do you think you can outwit Lu Xiaobu and gain an unbeaten record under his employ?

Did you forget how you once confusedly brewed tea for Lu Xiaobu?!

Really!

The old poison isn’t aware of their thoughts and is still calculating there.

The more he calculates, the less he feels he loses!

A Grandmaster-level favor!

The last Grandmaster favor was from Mo Wentian to the Blood Prince, for which the Blood Prince paid the price of blocking another Grandmaster!

Though it may seem like blocking, if Zuo An had truly acted at that time, the Blood Prince would also have had to desperately intercept.

That is to say, initially, this favor could have compelled him to act or even risk his life!

And now?

Permanent usage rights?

Lu Xiaobu, a fake Grandmaster, how long can you last? With treasures from heaven and earth, perhaps a hundred years at most!

But what you call permanent is merely a hundred years.

Usage rights during these hundred years?!

What can you do?!

After all, the method to use the ancient tree hasn’t been figured out yet!

By the time you figure it out, who knows how many years will have passed!

So, he suddenly laughed too!

It’s truly not a loss!

Hence, the atmosphere on site became increasingly harmonious, with everyone wearing satisfied, happy, or even indulgent smiles.

After a few hours.

Zhang Meng carried Li Jinlai whose head was sprouting grass to this place.

"This person..." The old poison, seeing the grass growing from Li Jin’s head, was instantly astonished.

Is this some kind of illness?

He seems to have seen something similar before, where eating poisonous mushrooms led to fungi parasitizing one’s body, causing mushrooms to grow.

But as for growing grass, this is the first time he’s seen something like this!

Before he could finish speaking.

He suddenly turned his head sharply, his pupils instantly dilated, and the corners of his eyes almost cracked!

What is happening?!

Why?! Why does he feel the ancient tree’s energy is rapidly draining?!

And the direction it’s draining towards is...

Ye Changsheng saw this scene and nodded—so he’s discovered it?!

After all, the old poison had just absorbed a wisp of energy, perceiving some sensation!

Therefore!

He turned his head again and looked at the person just carried over whose head was sprouting grass!

It’s him!

It’s he who’s absorbing, no, it’s beyond absorbing, nearly plundering the ancient tree’s energy into this guy’s body!

This! How is this possible?!

He’s a Grandmaster, exerting himself just now, only absorbed a tiny bit!

Yet!

This guy with grass on his head, every second absorbs much more energy than he did before?!

What is happening?! 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺

Then!

The conditions for permanent usage rights flashed through his mind again!

Instantly!

Cold sweat started sliding down his head!

Could it be, could it be, Lu Xiaobu already knew all this and therefore allowed him to exchange favor this way?!

If it truly is so!

Then he’s not merely at no loss, but utterly losing his shirt!

Their Medicine King Valley’s accumulation of hundreds of years just made a wedding dress for others?!

Instantly, a mix of jealousy and anger burned his sanity!

Impossible! Absolutely impossible!

Just as he prepared to act.

"Better think this through, wouldn’t you?" Lu Xiaobu’s calm words rumbled into the old poison’s mind like thunder!

Instantly, the old poison regained his composure!

Yeah! Has he gone mad?

Not to mention this matter was something he agreed to personally!

Even if he truly wanted to renege, facing Lu Xiaobu and Ye Changsheng together, does he have the power to retaliate?!

Moreover, just now, he already followed Lu Xiaobu’s advice and withdrew everyone from here.

He has no means left to threaten Lu Xiaobu!

Having realized this.

"Sigh! Master Lu, such skill!" The old poison shook his head with a bitter smile: "Unexpectedly, Medicine King Valley’s accumulation over the years ended up being picked by Master Lu!"

"Can’t say it like that, it’s merely shared interest." Lu Xiaobu shook his head: "This tree doesn’t just have so much energy, its greatest ability is to generate energy continuously, why say I picked the fruit?"

"Indeed, I was being small-minded!" The old poison truly came to terms this time.

Nonetheless, fear for Lu Xiaobu again surged within his heart!

As long as possible, this person should not be made a foe; if not, he must be struck down with thunderous might, ensuring he never has a chance to counterattack!

Otherwise, his formidable control ability will easily dismantle every advantage.

To simply say one thing will let you know this person’s fearsome nature!

Just mentioning the earlier idea to evacuate people, who realized it was Lu Xiaobu’s method to nullify his tactics?!

After all, the idea was so reasonable, even made him feel gratitude!

Even he, such an old relic, old grandmaster, was sold easily yet still cheerfully counting money for others.

If it were someone else?!

Surely, they’d die not even knowing how they died!

Terrifying!

This person can only be described with these two words!
