Elder Jin’s post had previously been drowned out. But almost in an instant it climbed back up, then directly topped the charts again. After all, Elder Jin’s status was far too special, and the weight of his words was completely different.
Most importantly, Elder Jin’s post had been forwarded by the official accounts of various famous mountains. This was no small matter. Now that the situation had reversed, things had suddenly blown up.
“Time to fulfil the promise!”
The comments below were almost uniformly of this sort. Within a few short minutes, tens of thousands of such comments appeared.
“Hmph, you lot. How could a person of Elder Jin’s high moral standing renege?” Someone spoke up for Elder Jin. It was that person who had previously posted under the name “Demon by the Qinhuai River.” He had spoken up for Elder Jin before, and Elder Jin had been extremely grateful to him at the time.
But now, seeing this post, Elder Jin wished he could rush over and tear that person to pieces.
Fulfil the promise? How to fulfil it? Truly cut off his own head?
But he was already riding a tiger he could not dismount, because he had publicly posted such words online. Most importantly, it had been forwarded by various famous mountains. If he did not fulfil his promise, not just him, but the entire cultivation world would likely be implicated.
But asking him to cut off his own head, was that possible? No normal person would do such a thing!
“Jin Yande, stop hiding. Step out and say something.”
“Are all cultivation world people this shameless?”
“Didn’t you speak with such conviction before?”
Posts and replies of cold mockery kept refreshing.
Soon, Elder Jin deleted his own post.
“Luo Wuji!” Elder Jin was currently on Mount Luofu, looking at the posts on his phone with venomous eyes.
He hated, hated Luo Wuji!
By now everyone still understood why the other side feared Luo Wuji so much. But he still hated Luo Chen, because this way his reputation was ruined. Not just before ordinary people, but before the entire cultivation world!
The good reputation he had spent a lifetime building was completely destroyed in a single day!
And all of this was thanks to Luo Wuji!
Seeing Elder Jin delete his post, the internet became even more lively.
“Pah, and he calls himself a senior of high moral standing. Going back on his word!”
“This sort of person can only flap his lips!”
“I actually believed him before!”
“Various famous mountains, you at least witnessed and forwarded this news. What do you say now?” Someone directly posted such words.
But soon, the various famous mountains also successively deleted their previous forwards.
“Not admitting it now, are you?”
“Destroying the evidence, are you?”
“Didn’t expect famous mountains to act this way too!”
Someone mocked, and directly posted screenshots.
And the two words “cut off head” directly became a trending search term.
“Wait until he returns to the country. This child is a calamity, causing our cultivation world’s reputation to be damaged this time too.” Cang Songzi spoke coldly.
“When he returns to the country, I will personally take action, and make him kneel before you and kowtow to apologise!”
In Cang Songzi’s view, he rather hoped Luo Chen would return to the country, then he would directly step on Luo Wuji with thunderous momentum.
After all, in his eyes, a mere junior, no matter how capable, could compare to a law cultivator who had cultivated for several hundred years?
And Elder Jin and the others’ eyes were filled with venomous hatred. It seemed they could only wait until Luo Wuji returned to the country, then wait until the law cultivator gathering.
And by then, it was feared not just Elder Jin and a few others would target Luo Chen. By then the various famous mountains would all target Luo Chen too.
After all, this incident had also damaged the reputations of the various famous mountains. Now, opening one’s phone, one could still see a tidal wave of curses.
But this matter still had not ended, because someone had been contacting people through connections.
Finally, this news still reached Luo Chen!
Currently Luo Chen was on a plane. A group of aunties were happily taking selfies, and that burly man called Xiao Zhang, whose full name was Zhang Ze, was currently taking photos of his girlfriend Mi Mi.
After taking a few shots, Mi Mi proactively came over to find Yang Peipei, inviting Yang Peipei to take photos together.
“Shall we take one together?” Yang Peipei said with a smile, indicating to bring Luo Chen along too. She had her own little thoughts, wanting to find an opportunity to take a solo photo with Luo Chen.
Luo Chen naturally was unwilling. He did not have a habit of taking photos.
But before Luo Chen could speak, Mi Mi jumped in first.
“We’re a group of women taking photos, better not bring a man along, right?” Although Mi Mi spoke this way, she proactively reached out and pulled Yang Jun.
This meaning was very obvious. She deliberately did not want to bring Luo Chen along.
In Mi Mi’s eyes, she preferred that sort of big, burly man who could protect her. What sort of man was someone like Luo Chen who looked somewhat fair and delicate?
Whether in height or muscle, he was far inferior to her boyfriend.
Even in Mi Mi’s eyes, Yang Jun’s skin was somewhat dark, and he seemed to have a bit more masculinity than Luo Chen. Compared to Yang Jun and Zhang Ze, Luo Chen no matter how you looked at him seemed like a pretty boy.
Plus, just now at the airport, Yang Jun had deliberately said Luo Chen was afraid of being forced to buy things. Once Mi Mi and the others took it seriously, they naturally felt Luo Chen was a coward.
Yang Peipei was slightly embarrassed by these words.
But Zhang Ze bent over, moving his massive frame over and spoke.
“What’s wrong, brother, still worried?”
“Rest assured, with me here, who would dare force us to buy?” Zhang Ze demonstratively rolled up his sleeves that were nearly bursting, showing off his biceps.
“Xiao Zhang, it’s normal for him to worry.” One of the aunties spoke up.
“Look at his build. If he really encountered some trouble, it would indeed be troublesome.”
“Young man, it’s not that Auntie is criticising you, but look at your frail body. There’s simply no comparison to Xiao Zhang.”
“If Xiao Zhang didn’t already have a girlfriend, I would definitely introduce my daughter to someone like Xiao Zhang.” The implication was already very clear. That is, even if she had a daughter she would not introduce her to someone like him.
“Haha, you’re all too kind.” Zhang Ze gave a slightly honest smile, but inwardly he could not help feeling secretly pleased, and demonstratively glanced at Luo Chen.
“I think this young man is quite good too. He looks quite masculine.” One of the aunties casually praised Yang Jun.
Yang Jun similarly glanced at Luo Chen, a trace of mockery crossing the corner of his mouth.
The plane soon landed in Siam, touching down at Don Mueang Airport in Bangkok.
“Peipei, shall we leave the airport with them on the coach too?” Yang Jun suggested as they got off the plane.
Yang Peipei looked at Luo Chen. Luo Chen was currently answering a phone call, and was just about to speak, but Mi Mi grabbed Yang Peipei and spoke first.
“Come with me. Weren’t you worried about being forced to consume?”
“Our first stop is a duty-free shopping centre!”
