Chapter 23 Fame Spreads Through the Martial World, Poison Paves the Way
Chapter 23 Fame Spreads Through the Martial World, Poison Paves the Way
The moon was high in the sky but not yet bright, dark clouds hung heavy, and snowflakes fluttered in the air.
Lin Xian'er felt like she was about to die.
Social death plus virtual death.
From dawn to midnight, all she did was drink water. Eventually, Lin Xian'er couldn't even drink water anymore; just hearing the sound of water being poured made her feel nauseous.
Unfortunately, she couldn't see, so she could only hold Wei Wu's hand tightly. No matter how weak she was, she would try to speak to Wei Wu from time to time, afraid that she had grabbed the wrong person.
She knew very well how petty Wei Wu was. It didn't matter if he flirted with other women, but if she got close to other men, she was afraid that this narrow-minded and heartless bastard would abandon her immediately.
How am I, a blind beauty, supposed to survive in town? How could I possibly survive!
Moreover, Lin Xian'er absolutely refused to allow herself to climb the towering tree only to be unable to hitch a ride and be thrown back into the mud because of a trivial matter.
So she would rather lose face and humiliate herself than give up her position, but she still clung tightly to Wei Wu.
Lin Xian'er felt a little numb and cried, clinging to Wei Wu's arm, "It hurts, it hurts so much! Has the poison not been eliminated yet?"
Wei Wu rubbed Lin Xian'er's head. In fact, the poison had been expelled half an hour ago, but Lin Xian'er's eyes would take a whole night to heal. In addition, he had some selfish reasons, so he didn't say anything and started to give Lin Xian'er water.
After all this fuss, it's already clear water.
He nodded and said, "The poison has been completely expelled, but after being bothered by you all day, I'm really irritable."
Lin Xian'er's tear-streaked face first lit up with joy, then froze. Her weak fist slumped against Wei Wu's arm as she playfully scolded, "How shameless of you to talk about such things in a place like this! Carry me back first..."
She is now blind, so her other senses are exceptionally sharp. She can clearly feel that Wei Wu is indeed very angry, which is why she dares to be coquettish with him.
She had been detoxing all day, and her legs were so weak from squatting that Wei Wu would probably be the main force next.
Wei Wu carried Lin Xian'er back to their room. The inn was quiet; no one had been there since noon.
Not just the inn, but the entire town was eerily quiet, as if everyone knew something was about to happen; not even a dog barked.
Wei Wu did not care about this.
Lin Xian'er naturally didn't care.
She was like a vine clinging to Wei Wu, and now, being blind and a burden, she was terrified of accidentally angering him and being abandoned. Therefore, she was naturally cautious and served him wholeheartedly.
only……
"Is this really necessary?"
"Don't worry, it's already clean. I just wanted to try it out and see if there was any difference."
Wei Wu was speaking from the heart.
"Didn't you say you wanted to try a different approach?"
"What's the rush? Shouldn't we heat up the food before eating?"
"But I'm really hungry!"
Wei Wu: "..."
He chuckled and playfully slapped Lin Xian'er. "You're such a greedy person! If you knew dual cultivation techniques, you'd be the number one martial arts master in the world sooner or later!"
Lin Xian'er hummed twice, her eyes closed, not daring to open. Her long eyelashes trembled twice, then she bit her lip and put her hands behind her back, her wrists overlapping. Her flawless hands stretched out like butterflies flitting among flowers, swaying with her waist.
It has to be said that she was probably the person in the world who understood Wei Wu the most.
……
The next two weeks were uneventful.
However, after the news of Qin Xiaoyi's death spread, Qin Zhong, who was seriously injured and on the verge of death, miraculously recovered. He took his master, Master Xinmei, and four Shaolin monks to Xingyun Manor to seek justice. He also invited many famous figures and respected seniors in the martial arts world to preside over the justice process.
Long Xiaoyun was in a terrible predicament when his long-lost "good brother" Li Xunhuan arrived at Xingyun Manor with his son Long Xiaoyun and the corpse of Qin Xiaoyi.
The martial arts world was in an uproar.
Wei Wu's reputation soared, and his fame skyrocketed, changing almost daily.
Before he could bring Lin Xian'er back to Xingyun Manor, news of his killing of "Flying Spear" Yan Shuangfei and then "Green Demon Hand" Yi Ku was deliberately spread throughout the martial arts world.
His infamous reputation spread far and wide once again.
"Is that even a question? Only one person and one force could make the news spread so quickly. One person is Pinghu Baixiaosheng. This guy is always eager to stir up trouble in the martial arts world. He compiled a weapon ranking list, and I immediately defeated two of them. Naturally, he has to hurry up and make a name for himself, proving that there is no problem with the weapon ranking list, but that I have surpassed the old guard and left the old guard on the beach."
"And which faction is that?"
"The Money Gang".
Wei Wu, with Lin Xian'er in his arms, sneered, "Money can pave the way, command ghosts and gods, and connect heaven and earth. What does it matter if some news spreads through the martial world?"
"Otherwise, why would the news in the martial arts world only be that I killed Yan Shuangfei and the Yi Ku brothers, but not that I fought Zhuge Gang, Tang Du, and Shangguan Fei one-on-one?"
Naturally, he suppressed it.
Lin Xian'er asked, "Him? Shangguan Fei?"
Wei Wu nodded: "Of course. If it were Shangguan Jin Hong, why would he care about Zhuge Gang's reputation? Besides, at his level of strength, he would no longer resort to such underhanded methods."
Using someone else to do your dirty work? Pshaw!
Wei Wu was playing with a peach in his hand. The white peach was so big that he couldn't hold it in one hand. He never got tired of playing with it.
Lin Xian'er, already limp and leaning against Wei Wu's chest, thought of her previous method and couldn't help but say, "He's using money to pave the way, why don't we use poison? It's the same weapon ranking, let's see if those people are greedy for money or for their lives!"
"What use are those people to me? If I can beat them, they're useless; if I can't beat them, their numbers don't matter either!"
"Of course, it's about making a name for yourself," Lin Xian'er said, looking at Wei Wu with a strange expression. She always felt that Wei Wu was somewhat stupid in this regard. "There are many people in the world who can make a name for themselves through fighting, but that requires a record of victories."
If you're talking about speed, then of course you need the praise of your peers in the martial arts world. If one master thinks you're a master, others might be skeptical. But if three or ten masters think you're amazing, even if you're just a baby in swaddling clothes, others will start to wonder if you have some special skill.
Wei Wu was taken aback, then tugged at his skin and said, "That's it, a little flattery is fine! Perfect timing, those people are all gathered at Xingyun Manor now, it's time to let them help me make a name for myself."
He glanced at his reputation score on the panel: 4396
Go all in!
The progress bar for Little Li's Flying Dagger rapidly increased; after the initial stage, the speed increased even more—
Wei Wu was no ordinary person without a foundation. His martial arts skills were first-rate in the martial arts world. Moreover, he had the foundation of the Lianhua Treasure Mirror and knew the basics of Little Li Flying Dagger. His cultivation was easy and he was naturally invincible.
"This feeling is wonderful~~"
