The Prodigies War - Chapter 332 A Battle of Words

Xiao Jinyu (萧瑾瑜)10-12 minutes 23.09.2022

As time passed, Lin Xun grew more and more impatient.

Someone next to him suddenly said with a smile, “Little guy, if you don’t have the patience then it’s best that you don’t wait anymore. Do you think Third Young Master will see just anyone?”

Lin Xun turned around and saw a middle-aged, mustached man smiling at him.

“Oh, why do you say that?” Lin Xun calmly asked.

“Haha, from your question alone I know you’re too young. Why don’t you take a look around at the kind of people here?” the mustached man spoke like he was very proud of his age and experience.

He implied that everyone in the room had a more important identity and status than Lin Xun, and they were all waiting patiently.

Lin Xun just smiled and didn’t bother talking to him.

I’m just waiting to see Shi Yu, but that guy acted all superior and gave me advice!

Lin Xun’s attitude seemed to irritate the mustached man as he coldly snorted, “Young man, don’t be so arrogant. This world is very cruel. If you don’t know how to conduct yourself, you will suffer sooner or later!”

The other cultivators in the room broke into laughter upon hearing that.

Perhaps they had been waiting for too long and were too bored, they all watched the middle-aged mustached man reprimand Lin Xun like they were watching a show.

“Hey, brother, you can’t say that! Aren’t all young people like this? They’re all arrogant, haughty and think that they’re better than everyone. They believe the world revolves around them. When reality breaks his head, he will understand how insignificant and pitiful he is,” someone spoke in a peculiar voice, fanning the flames.

“Come one, you guys are not being very nice. Don’t attack the little brother like that. Look at how pitiful he is. He just wanted to come here to meet Third Young Master and hope to be appreciated by him, and then become rich and rise in status.”

“Pah! Become rich and rise in status? A guy like him who doesn’t even have the patience to wait wants to become rich and rise in status? What a joke!”

The cultivators in the room spoke one after another, ruthlessly making fun of Lin Xun.

They thought that Lin Xun wasn’t a fierce or powerful character based on his ordinary appearance and young age. Thus, they didn’t hesitate to mock him.

Lin Xun sighed inwardly but a smiling expression came to his face. He swept a glance over everyone and remarked, “You guys are powerful, but don’t you also have to wait here with me?”

His one sentence made many people’s faces darken.

However, Lin Xun was still smiling. “What’s wrong with me being young? You guys can try being young! You can only flaunt your age and vent your frustrations on other people to hide your own insecurities. To put it positively, it’s a lack of self-respect. But to put it negatively, it's stooping low!

Lin Xun had never lost a battle of words.

The faces of the cultivators simultaneously changed. They became red with anger. Lack of self-respect? Stooping low?

A teenager dared to insult them in their faces.

“How dare you?!” A cultivator slammed the table and pointed at Lin Xun. “Be careful, a loose tongue often leads to trouble!”

Lin Xun didn’t move an inch but he clicked his tongue and said, “What? Am I right? Do you want to attack me? I’m just stating the truth but it made you this angry. It seems like you’re really a failure. If I were you, I wouldn’t waste time talking nonsense and just kill yourself. At least you would save some cultivation resources for other people.”

Everyone inhaled sharply. That kid’s mouth stinks!

“You…” The cultivator who slammed the table was so infuriated that his face turned livid and his eyes almost popped out. He unsheathed his sword with a slash and pointed it in Lin Xun’s face.

Lin Xun said indifferently, “Idiot, this is Stone Cauldron Alms! Are you sure you want to fight here? It doesn’t matter if you want to die, but if your recklessness wounds other people…”

The expressions of the other cultivators changed again. Even if they were unwilling to admit it, they knew that Lin Xun was right.”

It was asking for death to fight at Stone Cauldron Alms headquarters!

A man in a green robe suddenly urged, “My friend, calm down, don’t lower yourself to the level of a teenager. He is uneducated, so do you want to act like him?”

The cultivator’s chest heaved up and down and he finally managed to suppress his rage and angrily withdrew his sword. He sat back down but his face was still overcast with a fierce frown.

He was thinking about how to deal with Lin Xun when he left Stone Cauldron Alms later.

Lin Xun no longer paid any attention to him and just shifted his gaze to the green-robed man. “Whose dog is this? Why did it come out and bark?”

The green-robed man raged, “I resolved the conflict out of kindness! How dare you call me a dog?!”

Lin Xun coldly snorted, “No, I’m talking to a dog.”

Veins popped on the man’s forehead. He sprang up and yelled, “I’m going to go all out today! I must kill you bastard!”

The other cultivators frantically tried to stop him. “Brother, calm down! Didn’t you just persuade another person to not lower himself to the level of the youngster? Why can’t you control yourself?”

The green-robed man stopped, but Lin Xun coldly sneered out loud, “Look, it’s a dog with no morals. He told people to have self-restraint but he couldn’t control himself. What a hypocrite. In my view, he’s worse than a dog.”

The green-robed man roared like he had gone crazy, “Let go of me! I’m going to kill him! I’m going to kill him!”

It was as though he couldn’t relieve the anger and hatred in his heart if he didn’t kill Lin Xun.

The other cultivators did everything they could to stop him. If they didn’t do so, they could also be impacted if Stone Cauldron Alms learned about the incident.

What should we do? They finally realized that Lin Xun was a thorn and wasn’t easy to bully, unlike other young people.

”Don’t stop him. Let him fight,” Lin Xun said with a smile, sitting there calmly. “I want to see whether the stupid dog with no morals and self-restraint can bite off a chunk of my flesh.”

Pu!

The green-robed man was so infuriated that he coughed up blood. So obnoxious! I have never seen such a rude youngster with such a vicious tongue.

“Little brother, be quiet for a moment. It’s not good to make enemies everywhere.”

“Yes, you should let people off whenever possible.”

The other cultivators felt a headache coming on.

“I apologize. I’m young, inexperienced, arrogant, haughty and think everyone is beneath me. I don’t know how to conduct myself, so it doesn’t matter to me if I make enemies.”

After Lin Xun learned about his sudden change in identity and had to deal with a situation of internal problems and external troubles, he appeared to be perfectly fine on the surface but, in truth, he was under tremendous pressure.

How could Lin Xun stand a group of cultivators patronizing him and ridiculing him for his age?

Anyone who knew Lin Xun would know that he didn’t like to suffer a loss!

Therefore, Lin Xun didn’t hold back in the battle of words and vented the tremendous pressure in his heart.

Naturally, his vicious verbal counterattack to the disdainful, older cultivators were like a slap to their faces. His words were too provoking.

All the cultivators snapped. That kid doesn’t know what’s good for him! He’s too arrogant!

They no longer stopped the green-robed man and all fixed murderous gazes at Lin Xun, as if they had decided to let him have a taste of their strengths.

“Oh, why did you guys suddenly change your attitude? What’s the difference between you guys and the grass that bends with the wind?” Lin Xun didn’t hold back at all.

“I’m going to kill you kid!”

The green-robed man made a move. With a flash, he sped towards Lin Xun and brought his sword down in a forward slash.

Bang!

The door of the private room was suddenly kicked open and a handsome young man in white strode in.

This is bad!

The green-robed man’s pupils shrank. He let out a strange cry as he frantically tried to stop his sword.

The sword froze inches away from Lin Xun’s head.

Third Young Master!

Why…why did he come now?

All the cultivators couldn’t help but gasp when they recognized the handsome young man. Their eyes went wide, a chill ran down their spines, and their anger had long faded from their hearts.

Lin Xun was still sitting in the same spot and seemed to have not budged an inch from the beginning to the end. His expression remained unchanged, like he wasn’t the least worried that the sword inches away from his head would strike down at him.

However, when he saw Shi Yu dressed in a spotless white robe stride in confidently and leisurely, he couldn’t help but roll his eyes and grumble, “Was it fun to eavesdrop?”

The cultivators trembled inwardly. Does that kid have a death wish? Does he dare to make fun of even the Third Young Master?

However, Shi Yu just shrugged his shoulders and laughed. “I just wanted to see if you have changed after two years. Who would have thought that your personality hasn’t changed, but your tongue has become more vicious?”

The cultivators felt like lightning had struck them. The kid with the vicious tongue is acquainted with Third Young Master!

And it seems like the two are very close…

When they remembered that they had looked down on Lin Xun, patronized him, and mocked him for not having patience, they couldn’t help but feel uneasy like they had shot themselves in the foot.

If they were friends with Shi Yu, they also wouldn’t wait patiently.

What a huge misunderstanding!

The cultivators wanted to cry but no tears came forth. They could only blame themselves for judging people by their appearance and for thinking that the friend of Third Young Master Shi Yu was someone easy to bully.

Most bizarrely, the green-robed man was still rooted to the spot and held the sword in a slashing motion in the air like he had become a statue.

“Brother, it’s hard to maintain that stance. I understand your feelings, but I still have to tell you to not be a dog with no morals in the future, or you could be slaughtered before you know it,” Lin Xun sighed.

The green-robed man nodded his head frantically like he was admitting his mistake.

Lin Xun didn’t care about the squabble anymore and kindly reminded him, “Withdraw your sword now, you look embarrassing…”
