Or was it that when Senior Xiaoyao was working behind the scenes, there were some hidden conditions which Thrice Reckless just so happened to meet, earning him the prize as a result?
There were only three spots for the third-grade prize, and the winners would all receive an equal portion of the treasures on the fourth and fifth floors. For most of the practitioners present, a third of the treasures on the fourth and fifth floor was already a huge amount, and it was something completely worth fighting for.
At this point, morals and face were something that they were wholly ready to discard.
In particular, everyone got stimulated after seeing that Thrice Reckless had won himself a ‘quota’.
Various compliments rang out in the Throne of Wealth Distribution in hundreds of different languages; it was deafening.
The practitioners displayed their various methods.
There were praises that used fireworks, lion’s roars, hymns, magical amplification, and there were even some people who released magical techniques used for courtship and so on, a romantic radiance of love filled the entire fifth floor.
Thinking about it, Loose Immortal Xiaoyao should have already acquired a great sense of satisfaction.
Song Shuhang even wondered if he was at a concert of world-class singers. The cheers and praises were simply too shocking.
“Wonderful,” Thrice Reckless Mad Saber suddenly said. “I understand now. If it were a completely random Wealth Distribution and there weren’t any workings behind the scenes, then everyone present would definitely not be so enthusiastic. It would only be those who won the lottery that would be excited, but most would merely wait silently. With the addition of this ‘behind the scenes manipulation’ that everyone could see, all those present would naturally give up their shame and integrity and cheer loudly in order to try and win a quota. Perhaps this is why Senior Xiaoyao added such hidden mechanics.”
“I have the same thoughts.” Soft Feather nodded and said, “For the following prizes, we must make a preemptive strike at the beginning of the round, dazzle the audience, and win Senior Xiaoyao’s attention.”
While they were speaking, the other two spots for the third-grade prize were randomly allocated.
The Celestials managed to win the lottery again. As they occupied half of the spots in the throne, they had a very high probability of winning. At this time, the cultivators present could only grit their teeth in hatred, unable to do anything about it.
The last spot fell on an old man with a metal mask on his face. The old man was bent over, hidden in the crowd, with a very low sense of presence.
If he hadn’t won the lottery, everyone would have probably ignored him.
“Jun Bufu!” Suddenly, a cultivator shouted through gritted teeth. Beside this guy, a group of cultivators with identical robes also glared at the old man.
“Old Dog Jun, you dare to appear here!”
“Damn you… Don’t even think about leaving in one piece today!”
With the roar of the group of cultivators, more and more people turned their attention to the old man.
“It’s Jun Bufu, that vile guy.”
“This guy should be sliced apart by a thousand knives!”
“It’s hateful that such an evil person was rewarded.”
A series of hostile gazes locked onto the old man wearing the metal mask.
“Hahaha.” The old man smiled slightly. “I didn’t expect that I would win the lottery. This has brought me much attention, and this isn’t a good thing for me.”
Song Shuhang asked curiously, “Senior, what’s the background of this Jun Bufu?” It was quite surprising that just the daoist name of this guy managed to draw so much hate.
Venerable Tornado would definitely be very envious of this old man.
Scholar Bright Radiance said, “Ah, I really envy the winners. Even a killer with such a low presence can immediately become the center of attention once he wins the lottery.”
“Killer?” Song Shuhang looked at the old man. “Then, it seems like that this guy is a very successful killer…”
Otherwise, how could the other party attract so much hatred?
“From a certain point of view, Jun Bufu is a complete failure… So far, his success rate in assassinations is zero, and he has never succeeded. However, although he isn’t that good at assassinations, his methods in disgusting people are first-class. Every time he carries out a mission, Jun Bufu would use any means at his disposal, and they’re always unexpected. This is the reason why he attracts so much hate.” Venerable Yellow Mountain looked at Jun Bufu and softly said, “I heard that he was once cursed and no longer has a chance at ascending to the Sixth Stage, thereby having his path of cultivation cut off. Because of that, he resorted to doing evil.”
Northern River’s Loose Cultivator added, “Therefore, even though he’s called a ‘killer’, when he carries out missions, his goal is always to disgust the other party using any means possible rather than kill them.”
Fairy Lychee said, “I’ve heard of him, too. It is said that before he changed his career to become a killer, he was a well-known good person in the world of cultivation. His daoist name was Qian Shanjin. Later on, after being cursed, his personality changed and got totally twisted.”
“I was crossed by this guy in the past.” Immortal Visitor Amidst Clouds gritted his teeth and said, “It’s a pity that he managed to run away in the end. Otherwise, I would have already killed him.”
“Senior Song, can you give me back my inner demon first?” Soft Feather waved her fists and said, “I’m going to give him a beating.”
Song Shuhang asked curiously, “Soft Feather, you’ve also been targeted by him in the past?”
Soft Feather said, “No, but my father was. At that time, my father was closed up, and that guy ran to Spirit Butterfly Island to make trouble. Later on, if he had not run fast enough, he would have definitely died on Spirit Butterfly Island.”
Hearing this, Venerable Spirit Butterfly felt warmth in his heart. He patted his daughter lightly and said, “Soft Feather, there’s no need to beat him up in the Throne of Wealth Distribution. Since he’s already here, he won’t be able to escape. Even if he will acquire a protective token in a while, he can only dream of being able to escape from my palm. This time, I will definitely have him reformed.”
His reputation was not for nothing.
Senior Turtle raised his head and said, “In other words, this guy’s character became distorted after he got cursed? But even after his character became distorted, he never killed a single person. Maybe this Jun Bufu can still be saved. According to the recent movie plots, as long as gains a new understanding of ‘love’ or something, there’s a possibility that he could change.”
Recently, he had watched a lot of movies and TV series with Lady Onion, and a lot of those movies were about changing the world with love and saving the world with love.
Song Shuhang pinched his chin and said, “In other words, let him feel ‘love’?”
As he said that, the ‘Scholarly Sage’s eye’ in his left eye was suddenly activated.
In the next moment, his left eye flashed slightly.
A ray of light instantly fell on Jun Bufu’s body.
Song Shuhang: “!!!”
I didn’t urge the Sage’s eye, so why did it suddenly fire out the Expert’s Appraisal?
Could it be that the Sage’s eye believed that Jun Bufu could be saved, so it sent him ‘love’?
The light of the Sage’s eye was especially terrifying.
Jun Bufu had already been enveloped by the pillar of light, but that could not block the light of love from the Sage’s eye.
At this time, the ‘token’ had not formed yet.
Jun Bufu only felt his body warm up as his belly began to quickly swell in size.
This feeling was familiar.
This was when experts proved themselves.
Jun Bufu trembled and said, “Prof… Profound Sage Tyrannical Song…”
But I don’t remember ever offending Senior Tyrannical Song…
Honestly speaking, a guy like him usually wouldn’t offend a ruthless guy like Profound Sage Tyrannical Song who could impregnate others just by glancing at them.
Under the eyes of the crowd, Jun Bufu’s belly quickly swelled in size.
[No… No, I almost collapsed last time. I don’t want to experience it a second time.] Jun Bufu cried inwardly, but he still had to maintain the calmness of a killer on the surface.
He placed his hands behind his back, then remained motionless and as cold as ice.
Even though there was a sharp pain in his stomach, he endured it.
But then again, it felt somewhat different this time.
This Impregnating Gaze gave him the feeling of a mother, the feeling of a mother’s love. Because of it, Jun Bufu couldn’t help but recall childhood memories.
At this moment… all the cultivators who were glaring and cursing at Jun Bufu gradually stopped. Everyone looked at his huge belly, gulped, and then quietly glanced at where Profound Sage Tyrannical Song was from the corner of their eyes.
No one dared to directly look at Profound Sage Tyrannical Song.
However, seeing Jun Bufu get hit really relieved them of their anger.
The only regretful thing was that Jun Bufu was quite unyielding and actually managed to endure without screaming.
“Fwoo~” At this moment, the pillar of light dissipated and turned into a token that fell into the hands of Jun Bufu, Thrice Reckless, and the Celestial who won the lottery.
After Jun Bufu got the token, he couldn’t bear it anymore, and he slowly crouched down…
“Have you understood?” said Profound Sage Tyrannical Song slowly. Song Shuhang felt like he should say something at this time to ease the awkward atmosphere. But he didn’t know what to say, so after so long, he squeezed out this line.
Jun Bufu looked at Tyrannical Song in confusion.
What the hell am I supposed to understand?
“Do you understand love?” Soft Feather cooperated with Senior Song and stood beside him with a serious face.
Jun Bufu: “…”
Senior Turtle said earnestly, “Love can generate electricity and save the world.”
Song Shuhang slowly turned around, no longer looking at Jun Bufu. The lines he had thought up had been snatched by Soft Feather and Senior Turtle, and he no longer had anything to say. He could only choose to give off a profound look.
At the same time, Song Shuhang noticed that the Impregnating Gaze appeared to have not been considered an ‘attack’ by Loose Immortal Xiaoyao.
Loose Immortal Xiaoyao did not intervene, nor did he prompt or warn them.
The Wealth Distribution continued.
[For the second-grade prize, the treasures on the sixth and seventh floor will be equally divided. Originally, I was only going to put up two spots, but I changed my mind. In order to celebrate being able to encounter such a beautiful treasure here, there will be a third spot. All three winners will equally share the treasures, and I will add a certain amount of treasures. Now then, let’s move on to the next round!]
Thrice Reckless Mad Saber said curiously, “Eh, why did he suddenly change his mind? And he also increased the number of treasures?”
Northern River’s Loose Cultivator pinched his chin. “Could it be because of the ‘Impregnating Gaze’ used by Shuhang just now?”
Before Loose Immortal Xiaoyao changed his mind, the only eventful thing that took place in the Throne of Wealth Distribution was Song Shuhang’s Impregnating Gaze, right?
Soft Feather said, “Senior Xiaoyao mentioned just now that it was because of a beautiful treasure.”
Song Shuhang couldn’t help but touch his left eye socket.
Was he referring to the Scholarly Sage’s eye?
