Chapter 2009: Battle of Public Opinion (1)

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

“Damn it, damn it! Those people are simply too despicable!”

Outside the cave, Du Yu paced around in exasperation. She looked very irritable, as if she would explode on the spot at any moment.

“What has the deaths of those people got to do with Senior Lu? Senior Lu didn’t kill them. If they have the guts, go and take revenge on those demonic cultivators. Why are they venting their resentment on Senior Lu?”

The expressions of the others in the Martial Arts Department were also very ugly.

Hearing that, Xu Qi was the first to agree. “Those people are just bullying the weak and fearing the strong. They don’t dare to take revenge on those demonic cultivators, so they put the blame on Fellow Taoist Lu. They’re simply despicable!”

This kind of person, who was incompetent but took his anger out on others, was the most disgusting.

“The public opinion this time must be caused by those bastards, Xuanyuan Fan!” Du Yu said through gritted teeth with a fierce gaze.

Another female cultivator looked worried. “What should we do? If we let public opinion continue like this, Senior Lu will become the public enemy.”

“Xuanyuan Fan is really willing to do anything to get an air-transportation spiritual weapon.” Lu Yifeng’s chest heaved violently, and obvious hatred appeared in his eyes.

He originally thought that Xuanyuan Fan was just a little scheming, but he didn’t expect him to be so despicable and shameless. He was simply despicable!

“Why don’t we tell Fellow Taoist Lu about this?” Gu Boshan suggested.

The others looked at each other for a while and finally decided to tell Lu Zijia unanimously.

They had no choice. They couldn’t think of a better solution, so they could only tell Lu Zijia, the person involved, or it would be too late when the matter developed to the point of no return.

After Lu Zijia heard this news, she wasn’t angry, to everyone’s surprise. Instead, she smiled indifferently. “You want my things while messing around behind my back? How interesting.”

Seeing that she was so calm, everyone in the Martial Arts Department couldn’t help feeling anxious for her.

“Fellow Taoist Zijia, public opinion can be big or small. You can’t underestimate it.” Lu Yizhe was afraid that she wouldn’t take it to heart, so he couldn’t help reminding her.

He, who had personally experienced it with his brother, knew very well that invisible things like public opinion could completely kill people without a trace.

It had to be said that Xuanyuan Fan was indeed very good at scheming.

“Right, Senior Lu, those people are really too despicable. They’re simply… simply disgusting!”

The anger in Du Yu’s mind still couldn’t be dispelled. For a moment, she didn’t know how to describe those so-called orthodox people who participated in public opinion to suppress Lu Zijia.

Because she was the eldest daughter of the Du family, even if she wasn’t very talented, outsiders didn’t dare to provoke her easily.

So much so that she had basically never encountered any huge setbacks since she was young, until… She entered this mystic realm, and that forced her to mature quickly.

After experiencing two betrayals, she originally thought that it was already the worst, but now, she realized the ugly face of the so-called orthodox people even more.

They claimed to be from the orthodox path, but what they did was almost no different from a demonic cultivator who committed all kinds of atrocities. In fact, they were even more despicable!

At least, the demonic cultivators didn’t do anything so-called “righteous” in the name of justice.

Seeing that everyone in front of her was even angrier than her, Lu Zijia didn’t Imow whether to laugh or cry, but she also felt a bit warm at the same time.

From this, it could be seen that her sincerity wasn’t in vain..
