106 Chapter 106
"My fellow Taoist, please calm down. I'm just an actor. Everything in the TV series is fake..." Wu Youdao didn't want to cause any trouble, so he explained very patiently.
But if that reckless man had any sense, he wouldn't have used his Foundation Establishment cultivation to charge at the Spirit Transformation Stage master last time. So he didn't listen to Xu Hengzi's explanation at all, and rushed forward without saying a word, swinging his fists:
"Who says TV dramas are fake? Aren't the previous movies real? I'll beat up any heartless scumbag like you I see!"
"Hey? Fellow Daoist, don't be impulsive, I am innocent!" Wu Youdao was forced to do so and was about to form a seal to defend himself. He gestured with his hands for a long time but nothing happened. Then he remembered that because of the previous fight between monks, a ban had been imposed in Chaoyin City to prohibit magic.
Looking at the burly man opposite him, whose eyes were bloodshot and muscles were knotted, he was obviously a cultivator, Wu Youdao: ...
Why doesn't the restriction also apply to your bumpy body? This isn't fair!
Therefore, due to various complicated reasons, an unprecedented scene was played out on the streets of Chaoyin City where a powerful person in the Spirit Transformation Stage was chased and beaten by a physical cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage.
"Help! Help!" Wu Youdao dodged fists from behind and ran to the street, desperately calling for help: "There are monks beating people in the street! Please help me report it to the soldiers on duty!"
Some monks who were attracted by the cry for help were about to take action to stop it, but when they saw Wu Youdao's face, they all retracted their hands.
"I'm just an actor! Everything in that TV show is fake!" Wu Youdao shouted as he ran for his life, desperately trying to explain: "I'm not Duan Zixuan, I'm Wu Youdao! Everything in that TV show is...ah!"
Wu Youdao was, after all, a cultivator who was good at magic. After his magic was banned, he could not catch up with the physical cultivator behind him in terms of physical strength or speed. After struggling for a few times, he was finally caught up by the person behind him. A sandbag-sized fist hit him in the face, knocking him to the ground.
Wu Youdao had never experienced such pain in the hundreds of years since he reached the Spiritual Transformation Stage. Even the last time he was beaten, he had only had a few hairs of his beard plucked out. So, with no pain tolerance at all, this punch pierced him to the point of excruciating pain. He sat on the ground, covering his face and groaning.
"Stop pretending to be pathetic! I only punched you. How could it hurt that much?" The physical cultivator walked over, grabbed Wu Youdao's collar, and lifted him up. Just as he was about to punch him again, he suddenly froze at the man's face. He then put the man down and took a step back in disbelief.
"Xu Hengzi? Why is it you? Great! So you're the same person as that ruthless Duan Zixuan!"
Xu Hengzi was startled and subconsciously raised his hand to touch his face. Only then did he realize that the punch just now was so painful. In the great pain, he subconsciously returned to his original state.
Seeing that the young male cultivator in front of them suddenly grew white eyebrows and beard, the onlookers around him suddenly realized what was going on.
"Okay, I was wondering why Duan Zixuan's face is so infuriating! I originally thought it was due to the plot, but it turns out he's Xu Hengzi when he was young!"
"It seems that Xu Hengzi really did let Ling'er down when he was young! Doesn't this make everything right?"
"Humph! I just called the patrol soldiers for him, now it seems I should also punch him a few times!"
"It's not too late now. The patrolling soldiers haven't arrived yet. Don't waste this opportunity!"
When Xu Hengzi was covering his dark circles and trying to change his appearance back to normal, he suddenly found that the passers-by around him were approaching him step by step with bad intentions.
His mind suddenly recalled the very unpleasant memory from last time. He ignored the pain on his face and moved back cautiously, "What are you doing? What are you going to do?! I'm a cultivator in the Spiritualization Stage! Aren't you afraid of my revenge in the future?"
Just when those angry righteous passers-by were about to rush forward, the voice of a female cultivator suddenly came from a distance.
"Please spare his life! Please don't kill our actor!"
The ones who rushed to rescue people were Ning Shu and Zixiao from the Hehuan Sect. Ning Shu had originally gone to find Wu Youdao to discuss connecting to the Shenshu branch server, but when he opened the door, he found that there was no one in the room. He was worried that this diligent, studious and dedicated actor would be beaten by the angry audience again, so Ning Shu hurried out with Zixiao to look for people.
"No, don't fight, it's all a misunderstanding, everyone calm down..." Ning Shu pushed away the gathered monks and stopped in front of Wu Youdao, panting: "Hu... Hu... This forbidden spell is really inconvenient... I'm running myself to death... Fellow Taoists, it's all a misunderstanding, our actor Wu Youdao is innocent..."
The cultivator who had initially attacked was still furious, his voice as resounding as a bell, "Wu Youdao is innocent, but isn't the old demon Xuheng innocent? Don't stop me! I'm going to enforce justice today!"
"Ah? What old demon Xuheng? What does this have to do with Xuhengzi?" Ning Shu was confused.
The physical cultivator pointed at the figure sitting on the ground behind Ning Shu and said, "Wu Youdao is the old demon Xuheng! The culprit who killed his wife to prove his Dao and broke up Nie Xiaoqian and Ning Caichen!"
Ning Shu and Zi Xiao subconsciously turned around and looked in the direction the man pointed, only to see the face of an old Taoist priest with white beard, white eyebrows, and black eyes.
Ning Shu: ...
What's wrong with you? Are you addicted to playing the scumbag?
Although Ning Shu's mind went blank for a moment because of this unexpected change, after thinking about it, she decided to take the person back and ask him clearly first, so she winked at Zixiao who had been watching the fun beside her.
Zixiao understood immediately, and a Black Mountain Old Demon-like villain smile appeared on her face. She walked over, grabbed Xu Hengzi's ear, and walked towards the cinema: "Thank you for your concern, but I always like to take revenge myself!"
The scene of the Black Mountain Old Demon, with a wanton and ruthless smile, carrying the bruised and battered Xu Hengzi on the road subtly broke the boundary between movie and reality. The monks who had never seen such a performance finally gave up the idea of continuing to fight. Many passers-by took out their spirit shadow stones and took pictures excitedly. Zixiao dragged Xu Hengzi into the door of the cinema in full view of everyone.
The patrolling soldiers finally arrived at this moment. They looked at the monks gathered together with a puzzled look on their faces: "What's going on? Didn't they say there was a fight? Where are the people?"
"Ah? Is there a fight? Didn't you see it?" Some people began to turn a blind eye.
"Hey! Isn't it normal for the old demon Xuheng to be beaten? He deserves it!"
"Right, right, right! The Black Mountain Old Demon and Aruo are here, and they're beating up Xu Hengzi!"
"That's right, how could such a wonderful performance be considered a brawl? Even if it was, it was a righteous brawl!"
The monks outside were still talking about what had just happened, while the "three-court trial" had already begun in the cinema room.
Xu Hengzi was tied up and fixed to a chair, unable to move. Ning Shu, Zixiao, Bai Xuan and many sisters stationed in Chaoyin City stood in front of him and surrounded him. Zixiao, who was closest to him, bent down and showed a malicious smile. The whole scene looked like Tang Monk who accidentally entered the Spider Cave.
"Tell me, what on earth are you trying to do by going to so much trouble to sneak into our sect?" Zixiao's bright red nails deliberately pressed hard against Xu Hengzi's dark eye sockets.
"Hiss..." Xu Hengzi was pressed so hard that he gasped: "Hmph! You can kill me or cut me up as you please! But I won't say a word!" His expression was righteous.
"You won't say a word? Then there's nothing I can do..." Zi Xiao spread his hands and smiled, "With your beauty, even if you were to be a male concubine, no sister would like you. I think it would be better to bury you in the backyard as fertilizer for the newly sprouted trees."
"No, don't feed the sacred tree strange things! What if the seedlings get burned?" Ning Shu was the first to object. "And Ning Caichen is really more suitable for absorbing nutrients, isn't he?" At this point, she looked at Xu Hengzi sitting on the chair.
"Master, how about this? We'll release you, and you'll swear to go back and release Ji Chuanbai to reunite with Zi Qiu. How about that?"
Taoist Master Xu Hengzi's face was grim, and he stiffened his neck to refuse: "Don't even think about it! You bunch of witches, don't even think about harming Chuan Bai again! I tell you, even if you kill me, I won't let Chuan Bai out to be deceived by you!"
"Even if you are about to be expelled from the Tianyan Sect and fall into the path of evil?" Ning Shu asked back with a look of curiosity.
"Yes! Even if I was..." Taoist Master Xu Hengzi finally realized halfway through his speech: "Why was I expelled from the Tianyan Sect? Why am I going to fall into the devil's way?"
"Alas, you are still completely unaware of the power of our Hehuan Sect Spiritual Network after repeatedly exposing such scandals." Ning Shu shook his head and sighed with pretended regret, opening his Wutong Eyes page and placing it in front of Xu Hengzi:
"You, the Tianyan Sect, pride yourselves on being a prestigious and upright sect. If your reputation becomes condemned by thousands, will they still respect you as an elder? Even if they are willing, what if the cultivators of this world attack you like they have done for thousands of years against the demonic sect? Will the Tianyan Sect still fight for you?"
Xu Hengzi sneered disdainfully: "Don't scare me! I haven't done anything against the will of heaven and earth, why..."
On the Wutongzhimu page, the entry that Wu Youdao is Xu Hengzi has long been on the hot search list, and the comments below are all harsh, each one more extreme than the last.
Don’t run away, old demon Xuheng: Okay, Duan Zixuan is you, Xuhengzi is also you, the way I hate is all you, the most unfaithful man in the world of cultivation!
Wuqingdaohelai's wife: Even though I am from Tianyan Sect, I still have to say that a heartless person like Xu Hengzi has really ruined the reputation of our Wuqingdao! He is not worthy of being an elder!
Baishan Xiaoxian: Exactly! Because of him, our Wuqing Dao's reputation has been ruined! Now, whenever Wuqing Dao is mentioned, it means killing one's wife to prove his faith!
Miaomiaoxianzong: Hush! [Huangdou covers his mouth] He is the elder of Tianyan Sect, you are killing yourself!
Qi Wu Nong Qing Ying: I said it, I said it, I said it! He is not worthy of being an elder of Tian Yan Zong! Such a scum should fall into the devil's way and never be reborn!
I can't fall in love, so I'm just eating sweets: Disciples of the Tianyan Sect, look here! I have a petition to remove Elder Xu Hengzi from his position. For your personal safety, please don't sign it. Just leave your own spiritual energy! If you're interested in joining, please contact me privately!
Baishan Xiaoxian: Me, me, me! Count me in! Let the sect hear our voices!
Zixiao, I declare to you: I'm a high-level cultivator, I'm not afraid! I'm going to protest at the gate of Tianyan Sect! I'll keep shouting until he steps down!
Ruxue's Little Luan Bird: [Hot-horn][Hot-horn][Hot-horn] Tianyan Sect Elder Xu Hengzi killed his wife to prove his Dao, completely devoid of conscience! [Hot-horn][Hot-horn][Hot-horn] Tianyan Sect Elder Xu Hengzi imprisoned and abused his disciples! [Hot-horn][Hot-horn][Hot-horn] Tianyan Sect Elder Xu Hengzi openly assaulted innocent monks!
The subsequent remarks were more outrageous than the last, simply putting Xu Hengzi on the fire. All kinds of obscene language were disgusting to read, and many people tried to find ways to cause trouble for Xu Hengzi.
Even a seasoned cultivator like Xu Hengzi, a master of the Spiritualization Stage, couldn't help but feel a chill in his spine when faced with such dense and undisguised malice: "This, this is all just rumors! And how did I offend them?"
"You really didn't provoke him, but everyone just wants to vent their emotions at this time. The truth is no longer important." Ning Shu spread his hands helplessly, sat across from Xu Hengzi, crossed his legs, and smiled gloatingly:
"How about it, Taoist Master Xu Hengzi? Would you consider hiring our He Huan Sect PR company to help you resolve this public opinion crisis?
The price is just to release your precious disciple. You two will work hard with our Hehuan Sect from now on. We will not treat you unfairly~"
Xu Hengzi:......
Alas, this time I lost both my apprentice and my soldiers.
