"Haha! What a golden opportunity!"
Song Tianhuo thought of several of his subordinates who had recently been sidelined due to their poor performance. Now, he could finally put them to good use.
In their hospital beds, Zhang Kai and the others were overjoyed to receive a phone call:
"Chief Song, who walks out of the hospital like a dragon with every step and whose every glance illuminates the past and present, possessing abilities that reach the heavens and the earth, you're looking for me?" Zhang Kai started with a resounding compliment.
Song Tianhuo gave a soft "hmm" and asked, "How's the injury? Can you still move your fingers?"
Zhang Kai was flattered:
"Thank you for your kindness, leader. I was indeed seriously injured, and my finger joints are still not flexible. But your concern has touched me so much that my injuries are almost healed!"
"Our leader is truly a blessing to us. From now on, we will definitely..."
This conversation lasted for 10 minutes.
Song Tianhuo's lips twitched as he interrupted:
"Alright, now I'm giving you a task."
"What mission? Please tell me, guild leader?"
"You've all seen the news online, right? Lin Yu's situation is a bit dire. You guys should try to take care of him and give him a boost."
"No problem, Chief. Leave everything to Xiao Kai. You can rest assured!"
Song Tianhuo nodded: "Also, some things concerning me..."
Zhang Kai understood immediately and laughed:
"Our leader is unparalleled, yet he has always been low-key and reserved. But I think there's no need for him to remain so!"
Song Tianhuo smiled: "Do a good job, I won't treat you unfairly."
From then on, another group of people emerged on the internet, launching a powerful attack and condemning the villain Lin Yu. Their words were sharp and piercing, successfully sparking widespread outcry.
"Alas! I never imagined that Lin Yu would be such a beast in human form. It's truly heartbreaking. I really hope he is executed soon!"
"The net of heaven is vast, and though its meshes are wide, nothing escapes it. So what if you cleared an S-rank dungeon? This kind of wicked trash should be eliminated as soon as possible!"
...
Soon, public opinion shifted again, with many people reminiscing about the past and praising the former geniuses.
Zhang Kai had clearly learned his lesson. At this point, praising Song Tianhuo alone would be too obviously a sign of a paid troll, so he slightly changed his strategy.
They started with other people, such as Qing Xue, and Chu Jun from the Third Middle School, gradually working their way up before finally bringing up Song Tianhuo.
"Actually, Song Tianhuo is a really good person. He's not as aloof as Qingxue, nor is he as arrogant as other geniuses. He's calm, friendly, and often helps old ladies cross the street."
"His talent goes without saying, the Fire Giant: "
It increases the power of all fire magic by 30%, and each spell cast increases the penetration of the next spell by 5%, stacking up to a maximum of 50%.
"Among fire mages, he's a giant! Among his peers, if he says he's second, no one dares to claim to be first!"
...
In this way, netizens' impression of Song Tianhuo gradually changed, and they all knew how extraordinary his talent was. After a series of actions, Song Tianhuo was almost completely redeemed.
Lin Yu sat up in bed, unable to fall back asleep, and looked through his phone.
His complexion was not good, and his hands were clenched into fists.
"You want to completely ruin my reputation? Liu Haoran, Song Tianhuo, don't get too cocky!"
Lin Yu lay down expressionlessly and continued sleeping, conserving his energy for a counterattack.
At the Qing family villa, Qing Xue returned from the dungeon. Her skin was fair and radiant, and her long hair was disheveled, giving her a unique beauty.
She first went to the kitchen, took out the meal her mother had carefully prepared for her from the refrigerator, heated it up, and then prepared to turn on the computer to surf the internet.
She loves to see things like a goddess getting pregnant out of wedlock, a genius failing in a game, or a young heartthrob spending his life in jail.
As a result, one message topped the trending searches:
[Shocking! The true identity of the Firefighting Gang leader is actually him]
After Qingxue clicked on it, her beautiful eyes widened.
Lin Yu, it was actually her!
Qingxue felt her head buzzing. The young man she had high hopes for, who was rising like a new star, was actually her classmate with whom she had always been at odds.
"You, Lin Yu, deliberately concealed your identity! You're infuriating!" Qingxue was a little sullen, but soon her pupils contracted:
"A wanted criminal? A murderer?"
A series of events severely impacted her.
Lin Yu is, after all, just a student who hasn't graduated from school. Even if he has some bad intentions, is cunning, or is unethical, he shouldn't have done something like this, right?
Qingxue felt that there were many suspicious points involved.
After thinking for a moment, she made a comment, as snowflakes drifted down:
"Don't you think there's something wrong with this? Even if Lin Yu killed someone out of revenge, he shouldn't have lured the person into his home and then left the body unattended. Is he crazy?"
She was met with all sorts of insults:
"Damn it, why bother with all this? The police have already issued a statement, how could it be fake? Maybe he really is sick."
"It's not just him who's sick; everyone who's speaking up for him at this time is sick! These people can't distinguish right from wrong; their minds are rotten to the core!"
...
Qingxue couldn't stand it any longer and summoned a bunch of alt accounts to start a fierce battle. Unfortunately, in the end, even a hero can't withstand a large number of people and suffered a crushing defeat.
In an apartment in Hangzhou, a beautiful woman in a business suit, wearing a face mask, sighed:
"It seems that this is where a genius's career is about to end."
Beside her, Wang Xiaoran, who was also wearing a face mask, frowned.
At first, she was shocked when she saw the news.
Lin Yu, whom she had met once, turned out to be the recently famous leader of the Fire Extinguishing Gang, who had cleared the S-level dungeon.
What followed was an even greater shock: a promising genius had suddenly become a wanted criminal despised by everyone—it was too unreal!
