Chapter 419: 419, [First Sermon in the Purple Palace]

“Whoosh——” The paper crane flew through the air, looking particularly beautiful from the ground.

At this moment, it’s worth mentioning that everyone here is a cultivator, even if a female cultivator wore a skirt during sword flight, she could use spiritual power to cover herself, creating a kind of mosaic to avoid any wardrobe malfunctions that everyone might worry about.

With the appearance of the three, the inexplicable war of words also came to an end.

The victorious party, naturally, was the “One Night Fish and Dragon Dance”, Xiao Long Bao and Lu Xiaoyu.

At this moment, many players were already recording, especially the members of “One Night Fish and Dragon Dance”, planning to post this scene on the forum to slap those critics’ faces!

I wonder if those who vowed to eat shit will really eat it?

Lu Xun, controlling the paper crane, could certainly read the thoughts of these silly players.

Since he came to support Little Yu and her best friend, he might as well do it properly.

He deliberately slowed the flight speed to give them a clearer and longer recording.

But the moment the paper crane landed, the silly players around surged forward like bees out of a hive.

With this kind of momentum, if they weren’t all looking rather clean, they could be mistaken for zombies.

Lu Xun’s eyebrows furrowed slightly as he sat on the paper crane, he waved the sleeve of his black robe.

In an instant, a large number of players were restrained by a force, stepping back several steps, keeping a certain distance from Lu Xun.

Most of those present were sword cultivators, all fond of carrying their longswords. With just a thought from Lu Xun, they could all be knocked back, swords and all,

Making them retreat a few steps was already quite courteous.

This scene gave him the feeling of being a superstar arriving at an airport, greeted by a horde of fans causing a ruckus.

The observant players immediately noticed that they had received a buff!

“Huh? Standing next to the Purple Palace, you can actually get a 5% buff!”

“Is it true or false? Wow! It’s true!”

“I have it too!”

“Why don’t I have it? Is it because I’m too far away?”

This discovery surprised countless players.

This means that as long as the Purple Palace was on the battlefield, situations would instantly change!

Even if he did nothing, this simple 5% boost is terrifying.

Most notably, this was the first time they had seen such a group effect on other NPCs.

Well, one more solid evidence for the Purple Palace being the World Protagonist.

Let’s just be useless beings who only know how to say “666”.

Xiao Long Bao and Lu Xiaoyu sat on the paper crane, and for a moment, they were somewhat unaccustomed.

This was the first time they had ever experienced the feeling of being the center of attention in the game.

Xiao Long Bao, with no sense of shame, puffed out her chest, feeling that she had released her anger.

She had almost exploded with anger, but now she had vented it and felt fine!

And Lu Xiaoyu maintained her cool persona, her face expressionless.

Lu Xun knew that at this time, Little Yu must be a bit nervous.

He jumped off the paper crane and looked at the army of players before him.

There’s quite a lot of them,

Hang on, that’s not accurate, because there were actually many bald heads among them, who could be referred to as players of the Shen Yan type.

“The bald trend has been popular for so many years, it really never goes out of style,” Lu Xun mused to himself.

“With this many people, even if one person learns one skill, the experience points I’ll harvest today could easily exceed ten million!” He made a rough estimate.

Indeed, mowing the lawns was better than hunting monsters.

Mowing the lawns is just the best!

“And among these people, a large part of them are here for a glimpse of luck and fun. Once the exact news spreads out, there will probably be a steady stream of players rushing over.”

He was just curious now, whether those who vowed to kneel down and call mom had come or not.

As soon as this thought flashed across his heart, he saw a bald man squeeze out of the crowd, kneel on one knee towards Xiao Long Bao, then used his full-bodied voice to shout…

——”Mommy!”

Xiao Long Bao and Lu Xiaoyu:”…”

Lu Xun in his heart:”…He really does what he says, a real man!”

The surrounding silly players started to cause a commotion, saying, “Why is he kneeling on one knee? Is he proposing to his mom?”

The big bald man, his eyes wide as bells, said, “Isn’t kneeling on one knee still kneeling? I’ll thrash you if you keep acting smart!”

With all this commotion, the atmosphere became lively.

Of course, several of those critics had come, but in the end, only this big man had stepped up to the plate.

Admitting mistakes is something that requires courage.

Among them, some critics were hiding in the crowd, pretending as if nothing had happened, planning to mix in and learn skills from the Purple Palace later.

Little did they know that their game nicknames had long since been memorized by Lu Xun.

Because some of them had not only criticized Xiao Long Bao but had also scolded Lu Xiaoyu. They just started ranting at everyone.

“You can rant at Xiao Long Bao, but not my sister,” Lu Xun was always rational.

At this moment, Lu Xun was ready to start teaching skills.

But the silly players in front of him were still creating a ruckus.

He slightly furrowed his brows, saying softly, “Silence.”

Lu Xun didn’t use his spiritual power to amplify his voice to cover the entire scene, because there was no need.

He was no longer someone who had to raise his voice to suppress the noise of the world; all he needed to do was speak softly, and the whole world would naturally quieten down to listen.

Sure enough, after he spoke up, the players who were nearby instantly shut their mouths, signaling the people behind them to do the same.

Gradually, the whole area fell silent.

Sometimes it’s like this, resembling a noisy classroom after school. When a few people suddenly stop talking, the entire classroom would fall into a peculiar silence within seconds.

After the scene settled down, he turned to look at the two girls, indicating the guild members who were enthusiastically waving at them, and asked, “Friends?”

Lu Xiaoyu and Xiao Long Bao nodded in response.

Lu Xun gave a gentle smile, saying, “Then do come over.”

In an instant, the members of the “One Night Fish and Dragon Dance” guild froze for a moment.

“Did… did the Purple Palace just smile at me?”

“Bullshit! He was obviously smiling at me!”

“Does this mean we don’t have to queue up? Can we get priority in learning skills?”

Meanwhile, the other players at the scene were even more shocked.

Because what Purple Palace did gave away a signal.

That is, Lu Xiaoyu and Xiao Long Bao might have a pretty high favorability from the Purple Palace!

This point was evident from the Purple Palace’s current demeanor; something NPCs would only display after gaining a substantial amount of favorability!

“Damn! Here I thought these two female players were scammers, turns out they are big players!”

“Purple Palace’s favorability is notoriously hard to earn. You even see his six flute playing disciples who don’t have much favorability!”

“I’m so jealous, isn’t this Innate Max Luck? What happened to every player having Luck 1?”

At this moment, peculiar emotions surged in the hearts of Lu Xiaoyu and Xiao Long Bao.

Xiao Long Bao was thinking, “I’m so in love, if he wasn’t just a bunch of data, this fairy might have been charmed.”

Despite being careless and lively, jumping around like a monkey, she was actually quite clear-headed.

Even though she was also attracted by the Supreme beauty, she didn’t lose her mind.

As for Lu Xiaoyu, she felt a slight warmth in her heart.

She was a little confused now, was it because her brother’s death had caused her to subconsciously project some emotions onto Lu Xun, who had the same name?

Meanwhile, the surrounding players had realized that the Purple Palace and the White Emperor had different approaches.

White Emperor made those who wanted to learn skills queue up, Purple Palace on the other hand, scanned the crowd and randomly picked lucky players.

Damn it! This kind of benefit is really based on looks!

Come to think about it, it makes sense, it’s the world protagonist, it can’t be the same!

At this moment, all eyes are on whether they are lucky enough to be selected.

Standing there, Lu Xun seemed to randomly select players, in reality, he was avoiding those insulting players.

Who could have imagined that this NPC was seemingly picking players at random, but in reality, he was multitasking, scanning through the forum, checking the gamer tags of the trolls carefully to make sure none were missed.

No matter how imaginative the players could be, they would never guess such a cunning operation.

And the sword skills that Lu Xun passed on immediately caught the attention of the players.

“There are so many blue-level ones, there is even an intermediate blue level!”

“The yellow level ones are very comprehensive too, very suitable for casual players like me at this stage.”

“Haven’t you guys noticed? The skills that Purple Palace teaches are all very cost-effective? From the attributes and introductions, it can be seen that they are all top-tier in their respective levels!”

“Wow! The world protagonist is indeed different, all are freaking top quality!”

At this moment, Lu Xun looked at his character panel, ecstatic.

He originally had millions of unused experience points saved up. For example, the experience points gained from dismantling the altar were already close to ten million.

The points had barely been used, but they had already exceeded ten million!

“I wonder when the foreign race will invade next time?” he wondered to himself.

“At this rate, I should be able to level up several times soon.” he expressed his satisfaction.

Since the foreign invasion, he had been eager to enhance his strength.

Only by increasing his strength could he accomplish more.

As time passed by, the crowd gathering outside the city kept growing, it never dwindled.

When the sun was about to set, Lu Xun decided to stop work for the day.

After all, they were already ripe leeks; they weren’t going anywhere.

The next morning, there would be even more leeks lined up here, waiting eagerly for him to wield his scythe.

Lu Xun opened his character panel and saw that his experience points had reached as high as 17 million!

That was terrifying!

It was at this moment he recalled the two excuses he gave earlier: one was his lofty aspirations to make everyone stronger to jointly resist the foreign race. The other was that he was currently at a bottleneck, hoping to gain insights through teaching others.

What are we waiting for then?

With his character panel open, Lu Xun, in front of everyone, silently picked “level up” three times.

…
