Chapter 255 Black and Red Are Also Red
Good news: Jiuxuan Sect’s popularity has spread.
Bad news: After becoming famous, no one will want to come to Jiuxuan Sect again, unless they are fans of the supernatural.
Shen Yijin hesitated to speak, and after struggling for a long time, he finally asked, "How did Jin Huihui and the others promote the Jiuxuan Sect?"
How did things turn out like this?
“Uh…” Nan Mingcheng looked at Shen Yijin’s face and felt that she didn’t really want to hear the truth.
But escaping was not an option, so under Shen Yijin's gaze, he told the truth: "This rumor about the haunted place seems to have been made up by you."
"Me?" Shen Yijin pointed at herself, not understanding how she could bring rumors to the Jiuxuan Sect when she was in the underworld.
Nan Mingcheng felt the breath of Chen Yijin again, and then nodded: "Yes, three days ago, the ghost messengers appeared at various places in Jiuxuan Sect from time to time. Although they did not stay in the human world for a long time, all tourists saw them. They have no shadows, and they will float around and say some strange words... After so many times, the rumor spread."
At that time, Nan Mingcheng didn't know why the ghost messenger suddenly appeared in Jiuxuan Sect. Now that Shen Yijin is back, and he feels the strong breath of death on Shen Yijin, he understands.
When the ghost messengers began to appear in Jiuxuan Sect, Shen Yijin might have just come into contact with the power of the Lord of the Underworld and had not yet fully absorbed and mastered it.
Jiuxuan Sect is Shen Yijin's territory and is shrouded in Shen Yijin's aura. In the process of Shen Yijin becoming the Lord of the Underworld, for some reasons, Jiuxuan Sect was regarded as a part of the Underworld.
The ghost officials originally wanted to return to the underworld, but because both Jiuxuan Sect and the underworld had the aura of Shen Yijin, they sensed the wrong direction for a moment. After entering the underworld passage, they were unable to return to the underworld, but accidentally came to Jiuxuan Sect.
The Jiuxuan Sect was not an ordinary tourist attraction. In addition, the ghost officials were too real and did not seem like products of technological projection. Tourists spread the rumor that the Jiuxuan Sect was haunted through word of mouth.
"We have to find a way to resolve this misunderstanding... Never mind, black and red are still red, and we can still gain the power of faith, so let it be." After listening to Nan Mingcheng's description, Shen Yijin subconsciously wanted to clarify, but then she changed her mind and realized that the war between her and the world consciousness was about to begin. There was no reason to give away the power of faith that she had gained for free, so she simply went with the rumor.
This was also what Nan Mingcheng meant. Before, Shan Shunan and others thought they had messed up and came to him for ways to make amends, so he asked them to take advantage of the opportunity to promote Jiuxuan Sect and make its reputation even more famous.
But Shan Shunan and his companions did not dare to act rashly. They did not listen to him and racked their brains to come up with various activities to try to cover up the rumor that Jiuxuan Sect was haunted, but the effect was not very good.
Fortunately, these people did not directly issue a statement to clarify, otherwise they would really be scolded by Shen Yijin.
Nan Mingcheng roughly told Shen Yijin about the current online comments about the Jiuxuan Sect, and Shen Yijin unexpectedly discovered that things were not as bad as she thought.
Not only is it not bad, but the publicity effect is quite good.
Although the news that the Jiuxuan Sect was haunted spread all over the world, no one believed it was really haunted because no one had seen it with their own eyes. They just thought it was a new marketing strategy.
In addition, the new activities recently launched by Shan Shunan and his team are very interesting, which attracted many tourists.
Nan Mingcheng raised his lips slightly and took credit to Chen Yijin: "Your disciples are not good enough. They didn't take advantage of such a good opportunity. It was me who asked Yunhua's operation team to guide tourists to the Jiuxuan Sect to 'catch ghosts'."
Seeing him like this, there was nothing Shen Yijin didn't understand.
When he just came back, Nan Mingcheng had a sullen face, and he did it on purpose.
"You're trying to play the game of first suppressing and then praising me, right?" Chen Yijin stretched out her hand to pull Nan Mingcheng's cheek, pulling his face out of shape. "I know you're very capable, so the operation of the Jiuxuan Sect will be handed over to you from now on. I'll let my disciples listen to you. Bring me back more power of faith, preferably more than He has!"
Nan Mingcheng's raised mouth corners immediately turned into a straight line again. He looked at Chen Yijin with innocent and resentful eyes: "Aren't you making things difficult for me? I don't know how many years he has accumulated the power of faith!"
Although he spoke in a complaining tone, Nan Mingcheng still had a smile in his eyes. He knew what Shen Yijin meant, and he also knew that time was running out, so he would not let down at the critical moment.
After just one joke, he returned to his normal state and said solemnly, "Don't worry, leave the matters concerning the power of faith to me. I will also help you train your apprentices and try to train a few more weapon refiners for you."
He is a weapon refiner and can’t help much in a fight, but he can definitely take care of the logistics for Shen Yijin.
If Chen Yijin needed any magical weapon, he could help refine it immediately. Even if he really had to participate in a fight, with the Evil-Slaying Sword, he would not hold Chen Yijin back.
"Thank you for your hard work." Chen Yijin looked at Nan Mingcheng with a smile, and the latter gently held her in his arms.
Their eyes met, and everything was said without words.
Yi Shu saw Chen Yijin and Nan Mingcheng hugging each other from afar and felt like backing out.
When she heard that Shen Yijin was back, she rushed over to find Shen Yijin as soon as possible.
The more anxious I was when I came here, the more I want to escape now.
Xiong Zehui followed Yi Shu all the way over. Seeing that she didn't go in at the door but wanted to back out, he wondered, "Minister Yi, why don't you go in? Aren't they inside?"
Hearing the voice, Shen Yijin and Nan Mingcheng both looked towards the door and met the embarrassed Yi Shu's eyes.
Yi Shu tried to cover up his embarrassment by coughing: "Ahem, sorry to bother you, I don't have anything to do, so I'll leave first and come to see you later..."
After she finished speaking, she wanted to leave, but was stopped by Nan Mingcheng.
"Minister Yi, you must be here for something important. Time is running out. Don't waste time on these unfounded matters."
Nan Mingcheng knew that Yi Shu had misunderstood, and he and Shen Yijin really didn’t intend to do anything.
Even if they really want something, they have to wait until the issue of world consciousness is resolved.
Yi Shu was stopped by Nan Mingcheng, and it would be inappropriate for him to leave now.
She sighed in her heart, turned around and walked back, saying to Shen Yijin: "We have basically eradicated all the shrines that can be detected in China, and we should have destroyed one-third of those abroad. Everything was going well, but last night, the civet cats that went abroad to look for shrines all came back, and they said that they can't destroy the shrines now."
"I came to you this time just to ask you, what should we do next?" Because of this matter, Yishu has been worried since last night.
If the shrine cannot be destroyed, then the power of the world consciousness cannot be further weakened, and the time for Him to wake up will probably be advanced.
