Chapter 2195 - 2188: Who Doesn’t Have a System These Days
If it had been before, Xiaolin Chusheng might not have understood what Zhang Menglong meant, but since he acquired the system, he learned all the languages of the world fluently, and such puns are even more familiar to him.
In Kaibong, everyone treated him with utmost respect, and in some places, he was revered as a deity. When had he ever suffered such an insult?
"Xiazhou person, I’m going to take your bones apart one by one!" Xiaolin Chusheng’s expression turned exceptionally grim.
"Stop with the impotent rage here," Zhang Menglong noticed Xiaolin Chusheng’s defensive demeanor and became even more playful, "Oh, by the way, mind telling me, when did you leave Earth?"
"1968," Xiaolin Chusheng said, "Back then, Kaibong was already the second largest economy next to The United States. In just a few years, we could even surpass them and become the greatest nation on Earth."
"Is that so? Well, sorry to rain on your parade, but by 2010, our Xiazhou’s economy had already surpassed yours in Kaibong. Does your worm-sized place really think it’s all that great?"
Thinking about the glorious history of dealing with those days, Zhang Menglong even felt like laughing; he had no idea how miserably he had played them.
"Moreover, later when humans faced the invasion of extraterrestrial civilizations, your folks were the first to be attacked, and the whole island submerged! How should I describe you? You’re like a stray dog now!"
"You’re making it up!" Xiaolin Chusheng shouted out like a wild dog whose tail had been stepped on, "You must be deceiving me. I left behind a special Enhanced Human unit back then. Even if some low-level civilizations found Earth, they could easily tackle them."
"Oh, please," Zhang Menglong rolled his eyes, "What was that unit called again? It’s been so long I’ve forgotten, but it was already destroyed by me. Also, later, when humanity formed a new alliance, your people were scattered and mixed into other countries."
"What? What did you say? Kaibong perished?" Xiaolin Chusheng’s eyes showed a trace of bewilderment, like a kite with its string suddenly snapped.
It’s undeniable, Xiaodairen may not be decent, but his loyalty to his country was borderline toxic.
"Don’t believe me? Look," Zhang Menglong directly played a video in front of Xiaolin Chusheng.
It showed the footage of the whole small island disappearing under the invasion artillery fire of an extraterrestrial civilization, and back then, Xiazhou Nation provided quite considerable humanitarian aid; otherwise, not even a root could have survived.
Zhang Menglong still remembered their patriots begging other countries for help, but all were refused without exception, and finally, only Xiazhou reached out without considering past grievances.
"There’s no need for you to cry like that," Zhang Menglong said while watching Xiaolin Chusheng weep bitterly, trying to hold back his laughter, "There’s no need to overly thank us, although you guys are beasts, we’re humans!"
Xiaolin Chusheng wiped his eyes, "Damn Xiazhou person, I will crush your bones piece by piece! Then I will return to Earth and annihilate your inferior race completely!"
"Return to Earth?" Zhang Menglong sneered, "Can you even go back? Better think about how to send dreams to your descendants to burn more Ming currency for you, you little fool."
"Hehehe..." Xiaolin Chusheng’s aura suddenly became chilly, "It must be you! It must be you who destroyed our great Kaibong nation! I must kill you!"
"Kill me?" Zhang Menglong chuckled, "Till now, I don’t know how many have claimed they would kill me, but none succeeded. Do you think you’re special?"
"Hahaha, Xiazhou person, once you see my capabilities, you’ll understand what fear truly means. In all the worlds I’ve experienced, there are thriving cultivation systems and technology systems, but compared to Kaibong people’s imagination, they fall short by miles!"
Xiaolin Chusheng pointed at his eyes, "Watch closely!"
As three blood-red Magatama appeared, Xiaolin Chusheng’s pupils started to rotate bizarrely.
"Oh, the Sharingan, I’ve seen it before, who can’t use them?" Zhang Menglong demonstrated a Kaleidoscope Sharingan scene right away.
"This..." Xiaolin Chusheng’s breath paused instantly, "How could you possess this Bloodline Boundary? It’s only an imagined ability; besides me, no one else could possess it!"
"Is that so?" Zhang Menglong’s eye patterns flickered between the Sharingan, Rinnegan, and Byakugan, "Isn’t this quite simple? But you Kaibong people’s imagination falls short; I even have the Eyes of Golden Flame, want to see them?"
"Hmph! What are you boasting about?" Xiaolin Chusheng adjusted his emotions, "Your Xiazhou has Sun Wukong, we Kaibong have him too!"
With a flash of golden light, Xiaolin Chusheng’s hair stood upright, and even turned golden, "You know what Super..."
"Whizz!"
With an explosion of energy, Zhang Menglong instantly transformed into Super Saiyan Level Four, "Is this what you’re talking about? I even know Ultra Instinct, want a demonstration?"
"Impossible! How do you possess these powers? Absolutely impossible! Besides me, no one else can possess such power unless you also..."
Xiaolin Chusheng’s words came to a sudden halt, "You also have a system?"
Except for this possibility, Xiaolin Chusheng couldn’t think of any other explanation.
"Whoa, how did you know? You have one too?" So far, Zhang Menglong seemed to not have met someone else with a system, "Isn’t this sheer coincidence? But what tier is yours, and what tier is mine? Your system is surely not as mighty as mine!"
To date, Zhang Menglong hasn’t figured out the origins of Gou Dan; this kind of system rampant in online novels has long been overplayed in the Xiazhou network literature world, what’s so amazing about it?
"Nowadays, to mix in the show-off world, who doesn’t have a system?" Zhang Menglong said casually.
"Impossible, I’m the chosen one, how could you possibly have something like a system?" Xiaolin Chusheng was nearly losing his mind.

"Fire Escape, Grand Fire Destruction!" He launched an attack at Zhang Menglong like a mad dog.
"Water Escape, Technique of Great Surging Waves!" Zhang Menglong retaliated without mercy.
Although their surface power had some disparity, Zhang Menglong’s Soul Rank was even slightly lower, but the displayed combat strength was almost evenly matched, showing the importance of family background.
Xiaolin Chusheng leaped up, "Heavenly Illumination!"
Black flames started burning on Zhang Menglong.
"Hahaha, the flames of Heavenly Illumination cannot be extinguished, they can burn even water and void, you’re doomed!"
"What is Heavenly Illumination? I wouldn’t use it to light a cigarette," Zhang Menglong remarked, "I suggest you buy a copy of Battle Through the Heavens, understand what flame created by our Xiazhou people’s imagination is!"
Only then did Xiaolin Chusheng realize, although Zhang Menglong was engulfed in the Heavenly Illumination Fire, he showed no signs of pain at all.
"Do you understand what ’Strange Fire appears, all fires submit’ means?" Zhang Menglong said calmly, "Emperor Flame! Burn for me!"
