Upon hearing this news, Lin Buyan was completely stunned.
In his opinion, Lu Bei was nothing more than a sly, hypocritical lowlife who was adept at taking advantage of the weak and fearing the strong, greedy for money and lustful. He coveted Sister Bai's beauty and apart from having the qualifications of a decent junior disciple, he had nothing else to recommend him being totally a failure in the realm of cultivation.
Even in the world of junior disciples, Lu Bei would be at the bottom, far below his lifelong enemy, Mo Buxiu.
Because of his genuine disdain, Lin Buyan rejected all news about Lu Bei. He found even hearing his name annoying, thus naturally he never investigated how Lu Bei was doing outside.
Now, Elder Jing Ji suddenly told him that Lu Bei was doing great outside, ignoring the ethos of Wuzhou Country, and brazenly leading the Imperial Sect and Xuanyin Department to draw twice the regular stipends, exploiting local resources with impunity, living as he pleased.
