Chapter 264: Chapter 194: Going Viral, the Physical “Weakness” of Director Xu!_2
Meanwhile,
Xu Yang had already left the haunted house.
Outside the haunted house, Ma Long sat battered and bruised in a chair, immediately covering his face when he saw Xu Yang come out.
Xu Yang was surprised and couldn’t help asking, “Ma Long, what happened to you?”
Ma Long evaded his gaze and replied, “I ran out too quickly and tripped over.” “Did you trip and fall on someone’s palm?”
Xu Yang didn’t believe Ma Long’s nonsense, and he kept pressing him to tell who had hit him. Ma Long only shook his head and said, “The guy who beat me is just a regular guy, Xu Yang… I want to handle this issue myself.”
Apparently,
Ma Long’s pride was hurt.
If it had been the past, he would’ve called his friends immediately to beat up the one who had hit him.
But now, he was a “cultivator”!
How embarrassing would it be to ask for help now?
Seeing Ma Long so determined, Xu Yang was relieved, and said, “As long as the other party is just an ordinary person, you can redeem your dignity…”
In fact,
He had already guessed what had happened.
Probably…
The muscular man had run away, Ma Long had brought his girlfriend out of the haunted house, and then the two had a conflict.
Initially, he planned to do as Ma Long had said, let him handle it himself…
But when Xu Yang used his spiritual power to discover that the muscular man was bragging to his friends about his “heroic” act of “beating someone up” in front of a nearby roller coaster, even his little girlfriend was slandering Ma Long for “a toad wanting to eat swan meat,” Xu Yang couldn’t help it.
He said to Ma Long, “Ma Long, stay here and don’t move, I’m going to buy some oranges.”
“Stop screwing around!”
Ma Long heard Xu Yang joking and immediately threw an empty drink bottle at him. However, a smile crept up the corners of his mouth, and he felt a lot better!
Xu Yang, however, crossed the amusement park and came straight to the muscular man.
The muscular man obviously recognized Xu Yang. As soon as he saw Xu Yang coming, he promptly confronted him, smirking, “What’s up? You want to make up for your friend?”
While speaking,
He flaunted his biceps and sneered, “I suggest you go back and train a little more before coming… otherwise you’ll end up like your friend, being beaten so hard they are searching for their teeth!”
This guy was over six feet tall and very stout.
Perhaps because of regular exercise, his body was indeed very robust.
Xu Yang looked at the muscular man calmly and couldn’t help asking, “Didn’t you see what happened in the haunted house? Who gave you the guts to hit my friend?”
In the haunted house.
After he had smashed the head of the haunted house “NPC” who had transformed into his image with a hammer, Ma Long explained that it was him… Anyone with a brain should know that he was not an ordinary person. Was this muscular man really an idiot?
Xu Yang’s gaze flashed.
The muscular man momentarily froze, then grabbed his girlfriend and started pummeling her with punches… He then began to slap himself furiously until his face was bloody before falling unconscious.
The roller coaster area was already crowded.
This commotion quickly gathered a crowd.
But Xu Yang had already left, pulling Ma Long away.
Hearing the commotion at the roller coaster, Ma Long stretched his neck out curiously and said, “Xu Yang, Xu Yang… Something’s happening over there, let’s go and check it out!”
“No need. Take me home, I need to cultivate!”
“Right, right, I also need to cultivate and breakthrough to the Night Wandering Realm… Once I reach the Night Wandering Realm, I’ll go trouble that bastard!” Ma Long drove his BMW and took Xu Yang back to the villa.
At this time, the five women had already returned from shopping, and Xu Yang noticed they were watching the news on TV… The news was broadcasting the footage of Xu Yang being interviewed, being attacked, and then killing in retaliation.
The violent scenes in the video were all blurred out.
But the image of Xu Yang standing with several flying swords around him, swiftly killing the man, was incredibly clear, and even received special close-ups!
When Xu Yang arrived, Yue Yuluo was the first to jump up: “Hubby, you’re famous…”
“You’re trending!”
Yang Yin and Yun Mengxi began talking excitedly.
Xu Yang was not surprised by this.
Now that the country has officially announced the existence of martial arts and Daoist skills, and has vaguely mentioned the existence of Yin spirits and other malevolent beings, such as Master Chen of Wudang Sect, and other well-known “martial arts live-streamers” have even released videos related to true cultivation in the past few days.
Therefore, even if the event today was not sensational enough, the authorities would intensify the event and put it on trending.
However…
When Xu Yang carefully read the trending news, he found…
The real reason for his online fame was not the scene of him heroically killing the Asura Sect assassin with eight flying swords, but the video of him being shot in the forehead by an Asura Sect assassin during an interview.
That video was even specially edited and subtitled by someone.
In the video, Xu Yang was earnestly explaining the difference between Dao cultivators and martial artists to the media.
“Dao cultivators cultivate Dao, focusing on Qi refining and understanding Dao, while martial artists practice martial arts, emphasizing on body training, and energy strengthening. In terms of physical body, martial artists are strong while Dao cultivators are weak….’1
