“Luo Wuji, do you dare to fight?” This news came from Qingcheng Mountain and was released around midnight that night. Moreover, it was not only very direct but also unusually high-profile, quickly rising to the top of trending searches on major websites. Instantly, the entire country was like a boiling pot, directly boiling over. Qing Mang had sent a challenge to Luo Chen from afar.
“I told you, Luo Wuji is so high-profile, how could Qingcheng Mountain not have any movement?”
“This battle has finally begun.”
“What is Luo Wuji’s reaction?”
“Since he is so high-profile, he should stand up and reply immediately.” One after another, comments instantly ignited the entire internet. After all, people across the country had been following this matter.
Just as everyone said, Luo Chen was after all too high-profile.
He had just returned to the country, and on the very first day he caused an enormous commotion. So everyone was waiting for Luo Chen to stand up and reply immediately.
But in the anxious waiting, five minutes passed, ten minutes, twenty minutes, an hour. Abnormally quiet, with no news and no reply.
“It should not be like this.”
“Did not Luo Wuji cause such a huge commotion today?”
“Yes, he just returned and destroyed two major families, then in Dragon Capital dealt with two other major families. Since he was so high-profile before, how could he be so low-key at this moment?” They continued to wait for another half hour.
“It seems Luo Wuji is afraid.” A very powerful and influential figure in the country stood up and spoke.
“My God, it is Teacher Yu Xinghe, a Transformation Realm expert, the former second person on the Huaxia Heavenly Dragon List, now the third person.”
“Old Yu actually stood up to say such things?”
“Is it not rumoured that he and Luo Wuji are on very good private terms?” Yu Xinghe, in terms of reputation, was a character even more formidable than the previous Mad Beast Lin Hualong. Moreover, he indeed had some friendship with Luo Chen.
Because at that time when EU powerhouses attacked, Yu Xinghe and Li Jiu, these second and first ranked people on the Heavenly Dragon List, were both defeated by EU powerhouses. It was Luo Chen who made a decisive move to kill the EU powerhouses, saving Yu Xinghe and Li Jiu. It was also after that battle that Luo Chen became the number one person on the Huaxia Heavenly Dragon List.
Since then, Yu Xinghe had always followed Luo Chen’s lead. Never would they have thought that even he would jump out and say that Luo Wuji was afraid. If someone else said this, it might not be enough to make people believe.
But Yu Xinghe was different. To put it bluntly, he was equivalent to Luo Chen’s man. Most importantly, Yu Xinghe was still the third person on the Heavenly Dragon List. His words carried extremely heavy weight.
At this sensitive time, Luo Chen’s own man jumped out to say Luo Chen was afraid, then this matter was serious.
“You are not fake, are you? Impersonating Grandmaster Yu, deliberately trying to confuse the public?”
“Mr. Yu has actually taken sides.”
“Mr. Yu, why do you think Luo Wuji is afraid?”
“Mr. Yu, do you have any basis for saying this?” One after another, replies instantly pushed his post to the second spot on the trending search list.
Very quickly there was a reply, and it was officially verified.
This was indeed Yu Xinghe himself.
“It is inconvenient to say more. If they really fight, Luo Wuji cannot withstand a single move from Immortal Qing Mang.” Yu Xinghe spoke again.
This time it was truly verified.
Moreover, it really was Yu Xinghe, Luo Chen’s man. Even more importantly, the stance of his words was very firm.
“Mr. Yu, you standing up to say such things at this time, are you not afraid that Luo Wuji will settle accounts with you afterwards and purge you?”
Someone raised a question. Because although some people were deliberately steering the narrative in discussions, deliberately smearing Luo Chen, no major family or major power had directly and brazenly jumped out to declare their stance.
After all, these people were very clever. Making small moves behind the scenes, if they misjudged, they would not completely offend Luo Chen to death.
But for someone like Yu Xinghe to brazenly stand up and take sides was equivalent to openly challenging Luo Chen to support Qing Mang. The key was that Yu Xinghe actually replied very quickly online.
“What is there to fear? It is a fact that Luo Wuji cannot match Qing Mang.”
This time, the internet was in even greater uproar. In Dragon Capital, inside a luxurious club, the lights were bright at this moment. All around were seductive and sexy women. The helmsmen of the five great families were all here.
“Hehe, Grandmaster Yu, you are bold enough, directly standing up to clearly state your attitude.” Li Tianyou raised his glass in a gesture, looking toward an old man on the sofa.
The old man had long hair, a foot-long beard, and a face full of pride. It was Yu Xinghe. He had been severely injured by EU powerhouses back then and was saved by Luo Chen. Otherwise, that wound carrying severe poison would likely have taken his life long ago.
Logically speaking, anyone could side with Qing Mang, but he should not have sided with Qing Mang. Yet he had sided with Qing Mang.
Simply because he was convinced that Luo Wuji was absolutely not Qing Mang’s match.
“It is nothing. I am not shooting without a target.” Yu Xinghe stroked his long beard, speaking with a firm expression.
“Oh?”
“Actually, we are also very curious. After all, Grandmaster Yu, before you were equivalent to Luo Wuji’s man. How could you?” Lan Feihu asked respectfully, though his face still carried a surprised expression.
“You have not seen Luo Wuji make a move, but I have seen it with my own eyes.”
Everyone nodded. Back then, in the battle where Luo Chen violently beat the EU powerhouses, Yu Xinghe was indeed present.
“Indeed, Luo Wuji’s strength is powerful, far beyond what you or I can compare to. But I have watched every battle where Immortal Qing Mang made a move, and finally concluded that Luo Wuji absolutely cannot match Immortal Qing Mang.” Yu Xinghe stated with certainty.
Every time Qing Mang made a move, although he also defeated enemies with a single move, whether in destructive power or momentum, he seemed more terrifying and powerful than Luo Chen.
Especially in the West Lake battle, Qing Mang directly stirred the entire waters of West Lake, turning them into a weapon in his hand, defeating a Martial Saint with a single move. Could Luo Wuji do that?
“Hahaha, hearing Old Yu say this, we are even more convinced that our choice is correct.” The helmsman of the Hong family and others spoke one after another. After all, they had also hesitated at the time. Taking sides with Qing Mang was risky.
Because if Qing Mang’s side failed, their end would definitely be miserable.
Because this was considered betrayal, especially for the Hong family. No matter what, the five great families would definitely be purged then.
Of course, once they chose correctly, then what awaited the five great families was the opportunity to rise to prominence.
“No need to worry. Since I dare to stand up, it already explains everything.”
“Release the news. I believe those families and powers that have been unwilling to show their faces and have been watching should make their choice.” Yu Xinghe also spoke. At this time, he was expressing loyalty to Qing Mang.
“Luo Wuji, certain to lose without doubt.” The Li family declared their stance.
“Luo Wuji, why hide and sneak around?” The Hong family declared their stance.
“Luo Wuji, do you dare to accept the challenge?” The Lan family declared their stance.
“Luo Wuji…” The five great families finally openly declared their stance. The entire country was once again in an uproar.
