Prodigal System in the Flourishing City

After a series of major actions on Gourd Island, the entire island fell into silence, choosing to recuperate.

Meanwhile, the God Slaying Alliance also sent people to trouble the Demon Clan in the Ten Thousand Mountains.

But they all returned empty-handed in the end.

After all, the name of this forbidden area is not given lightly.

Of course, Xin Lifeng also sought out Lu Xiaobu, wanting to at least take action against him.

However, when the Southwest and Northwest Gourd Island were no longer within the sphere of influence of the God Slaying Alliance, it started to seem like the Alliance had become deaf and blind.

Though scattered messages still came through, it was impossible to pinpoint Lu Xiaobu’s exact location.

To strike under such intelligence-lacking circumstances would merely result in losing an army and a wife.

Not only would they fail to kill Lu Xiaobu, but it would also incite rebellion from those forces begrudgingly accepting the current situation.

The God Slaying Alliance couldn’t even announce their intentions to the world now.

Initially revered as a Holy Land, there are now countless people eager to devour them alive!

Xin Lifeng felt like crying when he thought of all this within the God Slaying Alliance.

He had already been scolded countless times in the past few days, criticized by the Alliance Hierarch, elders, the chief, and even heard some youngsters cursing.

Some even said this plan was utter nonsense, completely meaningless!

Previously, though they had only the status of a Holy Land without actual territory, even the Southeast Gourd Island listened to them.

But now?

After all the turmoil, they only acquired territory in the Northeast Gourd Island, and not entirely, with a lot of rebellious forces left there!

What does this count as?

Is this called a great strategy?

Every time he heard these things, Xin Lifeng felt pained yet speechless; purely judging by outcome, they were not wrong!

Whenever he thought of this, that name stuck like a bone in his throat—Lu Xiaobu!

...

The major situation on Gourd Island was set.

The God Slaying Alliance occupied nearly half of the area, Lu Xiaobu took Southwest Gourd Island, while the Northwest Gourd Island formed its force by rallying the remaining people.

Despite being tossed twice, Northwest Gourd Island’s high-end combat power barely suffered losses, hence no one dared to underestimate it.

The God Slaying Alliance was busy consolidating their territory, Northwest Gourd Island was striving to return to normal, and even Lu Xiaobu’s Southwest Gourd Island was extremely silent.

Recuperation seemed to be everyone’s sole theme.

However, the God Slaying Alliance and Northwest Gourd Island did not know that their rejuvenation efforts were entirely different from Lu Xiaobu’s!

Cultivators are accustomed to living without time in the mountains as centuries pass by the world, so their recuperation usually relies on time erosion.

But Lu Xiaobu was different; the advisory group from the Heavenly Dynasty was different!

They possessed modern concepts of time and were used to fast-paced living, and now with a place to show their skills like arms and fingers, they accelerated without hesitation.

Plus, having become cultivators, fatigue was gradually disappearing, causing them to work around the clock as if turning into machines.

Therefore, the previously slowed tempo due to chaotic situations sped up!

Orders issued by the advisory group spread throughout Southwest Gourd Island, day and night without pause!

Sometimes, orders given in the morning were changed or abolished by evening!

If this were in modern society, such actions would likely prompt anger and even violence!

It’s practically toying with people!

But here is different, the absolute authority of cultivators left people without thoughts of rebellion.

If any, it’s only the City Lords.

However, these City Lords were Lu Xiaobu’s slaves, hence couldn’t entertain thoughts of rebellion.

So, no one spoke against this absurdity.

The advisory group actually did not want to change orders this swiftly, but they had no choice, as they were gradually adapting to many things here without simply applying modern practices.

They must explore step by step to find the most suitable method.

Of course, they primarily focus on policy matters; as for improvements, that’s Blood Continent’s responsibility.

They are an advisory group, not a research institute.

And the Blood Continent was extremely lively.

After a setback, youngster Xiaozhi quickly matured, no longer claiming invincibility to solve everything.

After thorough consideration, he gathered whatever alchemists, artifact refiners, and array masters the advisory group could find, effectively the scientists of the cultivation world.

Then, they were controlled by Lu Xiaobu’s Divine Skills.

Finally, all were sent to the Blood Continent as researchers.

They taught these cultivation scientists methods of science, while the cultivation scientists taught them cultivation world knowledge.

Thus, two different civilizations fiercely collided and integrated!

This really set them on the correct path, akin to how scientific progress accelerates during war, such civilizational collisions hasten civilization advancement.

Every day, alchemists were amazed by methods like purification, while scientists were shocked by seemingly inexplicable reactions.

Initially extremely unwilling, these cultivation scientists would have started killing if their lives weren’t held.

However, slowly, as forced contact continued, their reluctance turned into willingness, even frenzy.

Driven by exploration, their field presented a new path, more so when scientists suggested scientific cultivation for the future; they went mad.

To quote Lu Xiaobu: "One group of mad scientists met another, with unrestrained fertile soil, their madness grew!"

For example, cloning requires ethical considerations in modern society.

Yet, cultivation scientists linked these studies to avatars, spurring various research and experiments.

The blood men became their experimental subjects, causing an uproar in the Blood Continent!

Even the seemingly mad Bai Qi and other elders were once again astonished.

Lu Xiaobu knew nothing about these things, assuming good stuff would naturally come to him first.

Now, he was fretting over something else—the scum obtained from Elder Yu!

It was time for them to emerge!

Thinking of this, Lu Xiaobu revealed an excited smile!
