Guys, I was wondering what would be the funniest summary of The Scumbags events, and somehow I got this :
Lu Shoi Ming kinda has a bad-bitch rep in his hometown and because of PREJUDICES he's on trial — also for alleged murder. But with the power of brotherly love he manages to escape.
Lu Shoi Ming is so mad he decides to wear new designer earrings, but everyone thinks they’re ugly, he agrees with them. The people who put him on trial are pursuing him like tax collectors, but luckily the earring’ genie — who's the biggest criminal ever — saves his life, and they make a deal together!
Now Lu Shoi Ming has to bring the genie Han Dongyang back to life.
But they're broke so first they get to the freshest western town to sell illegally written pamphlets.
In the meantime the South is at war, but don’t worry it’s just a thing they do here. Lu Shoi Ming still goes there because his freeloader spirit wants his cool sword back.
With the power of a crazy-ghost lady they manage to get inside the Sect who has the cool sword. Turns out the big boss in charge is a Han Dongyang fangirl so that makes things easier, but somehow the big boss is also hated by a lot of people for being a bad manager so he has to deal with riots.
Lu Shoi Ming phantom thieves his way around, but he’s caught up by a giant lake lady and he loses his pinkie.
But hey! At least now he’s officially friends with Han Dongyang.
But it turns out Han Dongyang is scattered like a jigsaw puzzle and they gotta collect him somehow. So now Lu Shoi Ming is forced to join the army as a maid.
People are freaking out because they’re scared of zombies, but Lu Shoi Ming is just built differently. He uses the power of conspiracy theories to get dirt on the Countess, he sells out the info and manages to get into the army headquarters.
Once there, Han Dongyang inception himself into people’s dreams to get info. Thanks to that they get their second piece of Han Dongyang jigsaw puzzle!!
Meanwhile people die at war, but hey… it’s not about them.
Things in the East are not looking hot right now, people are either drowning or being sacrificed to god. But hey, they gotta do what they gotta do.
Lu Shoi Ming manages to find the crazy-ghost lady friend, who’s a different kind of crazy-lady, and is also at war with her ex for sacrificing people to god.
But turns out, god is a lie and really it’s just a thing for the environment.
For the sake of the third piece of the Han Dongyang jigsaw puzzle, Lu Shoi Ming does what he does best : infiltrate Sects. Meanwhile, Han Dongyang gets advice from hookers about how to seduce guys, he immediately tries on Lu Shoi Ming and somewhat fails successfully.
Han Dongyang uses one of his most ancient powers : the power of gossip, to get info inside the Sect. Meanwhile Lu Shoi Ming is re-enacting his high-school life, but he feels more like a babysitter than anything.
Thanks to his James Bond skills, Han Dongyang gets all the info they need. And now they know how to bring the dead back to life, yay!
But turns out the crazy-lady ex is still obsessed with her, and she kidnaps her back home!
Everything seems like it’s going to burn down, but the crazy-lady somehow manages to kill her ex. So now everything is better, except the environment is still screwed.
While everyone was partying and murdering, Lu Shoi Ming got his third piece of the Han Dongyang jigsaw puzzle.
They confess to each other and become officially a couple!
Now they can head North : the ground zero for a new type of COVID.
People there are being infected with a sleeping beauty style disease, but hey Lu Shoi Ming is a cultivator, he’ll be fine.
Since they have no geography skills whatsoever, they both go to a back-alley market to get some info. And after Lu Shoi Ming avoided all his trauma, he managed to get a new compass. Nice!
On the way to their fourth piece of Han Dongyang jigsaw puzzle, they meet a rich-lady. And because Lu Shoi Ming kinda loves money, they agree to escort her.
And that’s where we are folks.
