On a normal day, Chen Xiaobei would not have gotten this Saturn Peach Red Envelope but right now, after receiving 30 million merit points from Lu Bu, his luck had soared to a ghastly 3,301,000.
As luck would have it, it had a short-term depletion value. Put simply, every time good luck happens to a person, and although it’s numbers don’t change, the luck within fate itself would falter.
That was to say that although other people were low on luck while Chen Xiaobei’s luck had just recently risen, it held on and had not been depleted at all.
It was for this obscure reason that Chen Xiaobei was the one who got the Saturn Peach!
Chen Xiaobei: Shixiong Shen! Thank you for the peach! The Red Envelope Snatching Session is about to begin! I wish you the best of luck!
Shen Gongpao: I’m out! You guys have fun! ???
Monkey King: Come! Come! Come! Let’s ignore Shen Gongpao! The exciting Red Envelope Snatching Session begins now!
Ding!
[Monkey King sent a Red Envelope to this group chat!]
Ding!
[Sanzang sent a Red Envelope to this group chat!]
Ding!
[Goddess Zixia sent a Red Envelope to this group chat!]
All 10,000 group members came well prepared. At Monkey King’s announcement, the group saw over 10,000 Red Envelopes begin to pour in!
Chen Xiaobei was ready too and strated frantically snatching Red Envelopes as fast as his hands could tap.

[Congratulations! You received Emperor Zhenwu’s Red Envelope. The three Zhenwu Ethereal Pills. It has been stored inside your treasure chest!]
“I got a Red Envelope! Double-kill!” Chen Xiaobei got the second envelope within seconds. The double whammy now put him on cloud nine!
Ding!
[Congratulations! You received Yanwang’s Red Envelope. Three Spirit Summoning Talismans have been stored inside your treasure chest!]
“Triple-kill! More Spirit Summoning Talismans! Awesome!” Chen Xiaobei exclaimed excitedly.
He had used the last Spirit Summoning Talisman in the Overgrown Forest and really needed a replenishment!
Ding!
[Congratulations! You received Tiangong Xingjun’s Red Envelope. A Tiangong Blueprint has been stored inside your treasure chest!]
“Quadruple-kill! Goodness gracious me!” Chen Xiaobei grinned. “I wonder what this does. Am I supposed to build a house with this blueprint?”
Indeed, he was very curious but did not have time to look into it as the voracious flood of Red Envelopes still poured in. He had to snatch as many as he could!
Ding!
[Congratulations! You received Xiao Tianquan’s Red Envelope. 10 Beginner-level Shapeshifting Pills have been stored inside your treasure chest!]
“Huh? Shapeshifting Pills!” Chen Xiaobei’s eyebrows were raised. “I remember from the previous conversation, Wang Cai, Lai Fu, and Er Ha ate Shapeshifting Pills which changed them into human forms. They had no problems playing our games! Say I give this to Xiao Bai, I wonder if he would change into human form as well?”
Ding!
[Congratulations! You received Sanzang’s Red Envelope! Three pieces of Expiate Heart Returning Talismans have been stored inside your treasure chest!]
“Quintuple-kill! This Sanzang has always been stingy, but it must be because we won first place that he’s being extra generous this once! Hehe!”
Chen Xiaobei grinned. Although he did not know what these three talismans were for, he was as happy as Larry could ever get!
Including the Saturn Peach, Chen Xiaobei had received a total of five Red Envelopes.
The Red Envelope Snatching Session was beginning to slow to a stop, and gradually died down.
The King of Glory competition turned out to be the likes of a grand festival party – everyone who participated was able to return home with at least one or two Red Envelopes.
Except for one person, of course.
The person in question was Shen Gongpao! The only award he would be getting today would have to be the most despondent person in the world!
Shen Gongpao: @LuBu! Curse your grandpa! What the hell did you do? What happened to destroying Chen Xiaobei and giving me all his treasures? ??
Lu Bu: Don’t you dare. I curse all 18 generations of your ancestors! You swear at me again, and I’ll blacklist you!
Shen Gongpao: What?! Say that again!
Lu Bu: You really are a lowlife aren’t you! You’re asking me to curse all 18 generations of your ancestors again?!
Shen Gongpao: You… Do you know what you’re saying? Have you lost your mind? I still have Diao Chan! Do you want her to die?
Lu Bu: Hehe, are you sure you still have her?
Shen Gongpao: What do you mean? ?
Lu Bu: Haven’t you heard you insolent fool. When you were busy losing the competition, Diao Chan had already descended to the Earth God’s Realm, and escaped you forever!
Shen Gongpao: How is that possible! That’s impossible! No!
Lu Bu: If you don’t believe me, go find out yourself. See if Diao Chan is still with you! Of course, you can also go check the merit points ledger. In there would be a very clear and concise record on it!
Shen Gongpao: I’ll go check it! Damn you. I’ll go now! Don’t you try to scare me! What the flying f*ck! Diao Chan really did exchange for a position at the Earth God’s Realm using the ledger! How did that happen? I… What in the world happened?!
Lu Bu: What a stupid fool! Here. Let me tell you. This is all part of God Chen’s plan!
Shen Gongpao: Chen Xiaobei’s plan? What plan? What kind of tricks did he pull? Tell me! Tell me now!!!
Lu Bu: Hehe! It was because you thought yourself so smart and that you had Chen Xiaobei at the back of your hand! The reality is that, you, an ignoramus of an idiot, are just another pawn of his!
Shen Gongpao: Pawn? What kind of nonsense are you going on and on about? How could I be Chen Xiaobei’s pawn?
Lu Bu: Heh, since the beginning of the competition, you’ve already fallen deep into the great plan God Chen had designed! From that moment onwards, everything you’ve done played right into his hands! From the beginning till the end, everything was exactly as God Chen had predicted! If you’re not just a pawn then what are you?
Shen Gongpao: That’s not possible. How is this possible?
Lu Bu: With a brain as puny as yours, it’s normal you’re unable to figure it out! The facts are all there. You are the idiot who suffered a double loss due to your own failed schemes! God Chen, on the other hand, now has his pockets brimming with goodies! That, oh halfwit, is the difference between the both of you!
Shen Gongpao: I… I suffered double losses… Chen Xiaobei’s pockets are brimming…??
He had lost the competition, the Saturn Peach, Diao Chan, and now, he’d lost control of Lu Bu.
Shen Gongpao was utterly and irreparably devastated. One could only imagine how he felt – implicitly miserable and inconsolable beyond any reason.
Lu Bu: You take your time to think about it and vomit as much blood as thou can oust! I won’t be joining you. Also, let me remind you. Gently: if you send more people to harm God Chen, Diao Chan and I will be standing next to him, killing one after another until all are dead!
Having sent the final message, Lu Bu blacklisted Shen Gongpao.
“Why are you smiling so happily? Were you pulling Shen Gongpao’s chains?” Chen Xiaobei asked.
“Yesh! I pissed him off so bad he was vomiting blood! There is no greater feeling than this!” Lu Bu cooed.
“Good!” Chen Xiaobei asked. “So, what are your plans after this? What’s next?”
