Prodigal System in the Flourishing City

A chaotic battle erupted in the Spirit Realm.

However, apart from that one piece of territory, the remaining areas quietly chose to stand by.

They did not intervene, but they also did not allow those bloodthirsty folks to enter their territory.

Thus, ever since the Lord withdrew from the first layer of the Domain, and with most entertainment means gone, people found another way to amuse themselves.

That is, while maintaining territory and plundering Energy, they watched the chaotic battle.

Some keen observers came to a conclusion after analyzing the situation.

"Hey, I’ve noticed something really ominous!"

"What is it? Is the Lord going to reclaim this place again?!"

"It’s not about that, I’m talking about the Chaotic Domain!"

"Chaotic Domain?! When did it get that name?"

"I named it! Pretty nice, right? Alongside, I’ve also called Lin Feng’s territory Lin Country!"

"It does have a certain charm. So, what’s the main point? What’s so ominous about the Chaotic Domain?"

"What’s happening in the Chaotic Domain?"

"It’s a chaotic battle, right? What’s the point?"

"What will be the outcome of that chaotic battle?"

"Can you stop being mysterious?!"

"Alright! Alright! Look, right now the people of the Chaotic Domain are bloodthirsty, every attack they make destroys others’ domains, reaching the point of obtaining each other’s coordinates! And as they keep killing, eventually won’t there be a single outcome? Which is that everyone knows each other’s coordinates!"

"So what? They know, so they know! How does it concern us?!"

"But the problem lies in the fact that once they all know each other’s coordinates, it means they know each other’s ultimate boundaries! And once that’s the case, they become natural allies!"

"Then what?"

"Hey, are you stupid? Their kind of alliance is much more reliable than our alliance; when they join forces to attack us, do you think we can hold them off?!"

"Damn! You have a point! Isn’t that a different kind of alliance? What do we do? Should we stop them?"

"Do you think you can stop them?"

"..."

As this smart person realized things were amiss, both Lin Feng and the Lord were watching the battle in the Chaotic Domain.

Number Two looked at the Chaotic Domain and turned to the Lord with confusion: "Your Majesty, the Lord, why would Lu Xiaobu incite such chaos? What benefit does he gain? Does he truly intend, as the Mahayana people think, for everyone here to know each other’s coordinates and form a solid alliance?"

"Huh! That’s just the judgment of ants! Their vision is too narrow! They don’t even realize that Lu Xiaobu is the instigator!" The Lord spoke with disdain, then continued.

"As for the benefit to Lu Xiaobu? Naturally, it’s to rule this area! Although it seems lively now, everything is actually under Lu Xiaobu’s control, he’s making sure that the condition of knowing coordinates forms a closed loop as much as possible. Just a small tactic!"

The Lord’s gaze appeared casual, but his eyes never left the Chaotic Domain.

Clearly, he spoke of small tactics, yet in his heart, he did not take it lightly.

"Closed loop?"

Number Two murmured.

She knew the meaning of a closed loop, which is something interconnected from head to tail, with one being suppressed by another.

However, she still didn’t quite understand what Lu Xiaobu wanted to accomplish.

Seeing Number Two’s confusion, the Lord spoke softly, "Once the people there form a closed loop, everyone will know someone else’s coordinates, and their coordinates will be known by another, forming a solid alliance different from what those ants imagine, with no bottom line!"

"You can imagine, once this closed loop is formed, Lu Xiaobu, who knows everyone’s coordinates, holds absolute dominion over this loop, right?"

Upon hearing this, Number Two was taken aback.

She understood.

The subordinates forming a closed loop, mutually restraining each other, and Lu Xiaobu becomes the supreme ruler knowing everyone’s coordinates.

This tactic is too sly; if not for the Lord shedding light on it, even she would be unaware like those ants.

"Lin Feng uses thunderous methods, accompanied by fear and suppression, to consolidate the territories he’s acquired. Though the tactics are brutal, they are more secure, a step-by-step approach."

"Whereas Lu Xiaobu’s tactics are full of ghostly tricks, fishing in troubled waters, picking chestnuts from the fire. Although once successful, they yield great returns, even forming sturdier relationships than Lin Feng’s territorial gains, ultimately they are prone to mutability!"

"The greatest leverage he can use is the time gap; the Mahayana being blasted won’t be able to come online immediately, thus giving him the opportunity to complete the closed loop."

"But similarly, his greatest flaw is also the time gap. If he doesn’t manage the time gap well, then the consequence is that the Cultivators coming back online will be flooded with anger, losing rationality over what happened to their Domain, and everything will genuinely become a tangled mess!"

The Lord slowly commented.

"Then, your Majesty the Lord, should we intervene? Disturb Lu Xiaobu’s setup and make his plans completely fall through!" Number Two asked with some excitement.

She held an unusual anticipation in dealing with both Lu Xiaobu and Lin Feng!

"Why should we intervene?" The Lord smiled, eyes gleaming with scheming light, "My goal is to let them enter the game; once they do, it’s what I want! The mere first layer of the Spirit Realm is just a bone thrown out for them to bite each other, why should I, the one who throws the bone, go down and bite them too?!"

"Apologies, your Majesty the Lord, I... I misspoke!" Number Two shivered slightly.

Going down to bite too?!

Those words sound a bit terrifying!

"Don’t be afraid! This trivial matter I don’t mind!" The Lord waved his hand dismissively.

Then he turned his gaze toward two pieces of calligraphy beside him.

These were sent to him by Lu Xiaobu and Lin Feng!

"Watchdog"

"Pitiful and unloved fool"

Aren’t you two arrogant?

The breadth of vision determines everything; controlling the entire Spirit Realm, I am destined to be the superior judge over your lives, while you can only tear at each other for the bones I’ve thrown!

"So are we just going to watch Lu Xiaobu complete his plan?!" Number Two asked hesitantly.

She felt somewhat unwilling!

"We don’t need to make a move; someone else will!" The Lord smiled mildly, eyes looking toward the place those ants call Lin Country.

"Lin Feng won’t let Lu Xiaobu complete his plan so seamlessly, the crucial moment is coming, Lin Feng will strike at the most critical point! And we just enjoy the show!"

The Lord’s dignified yet highly proud voice echoed!
