Chapter 237 Let's go! Let's go for a drink!
Fortunately, the world was not destroyed.
It's just that "Sword Immortal Master" received negative reviews again long after it was completed.
Gu Lang opened the letter and was amused.
These strong words and indignant tone suggest that the Zhu family's dislike for Mr. Wuyu's storytelling has reached a certain level.
You should know that ever since Zhu Wuyao's storybooks became popular—
The plot of being kicked out of the house by a vicious uncle and aunt at the beginning, and then making a comeback in the end is endless. Without exception, the uncles, aunts and cousins in the book are all villains, and they all meet a bad end.
When the winds of the North Pole blow to the far east.
Those in Dongji City who knew about the Zhu family's gossip looked at them with a strange expression.
Not only did the elders in the family lose face in public, but even the younger generation in the family who had obtained Zhu Wuyao's Ascension Token and joined the Qingyun Sect were ridiculed and dared not face anyone.
Originally, the people around were just making light of it, saying things like:
"Your family has a younger member who left home in a huff after losing both parents, right? Don't let them learn some real skills and come back to argue with you!"
Originally, the bystanders were unaware of the inside story of the Zhu family.
In their view, the Zhu couple went out to do business and encountered an accident. It was their other brothers who helped collect the remains and hold the funeral.
Of course... they shamelessly seized the family fortune, which angered the Zhu family couple and drove their child away.
But such things happen all the time.
It's not surprising that the Zhu family's children were unable to protect their family property, which was then seized by other unscrupulous elders.
Everyone made a sarcastic and ironic remark.
But little did anyone know that the Zhu family had seized the family property and even the immortal destiny that rightfully belonged to Zhu Wuyao, and they were already feeling guilty.
He immediately quit when he heard others making sarcastic remarks.
He started shouting and saying something:
"What does this have to do with me! She left on her own; I didn't kick her out!"
"I even gave her money, but she refused it. How did we do anything wrong to her family?!"
The Zhu family reacted exceptionally strongly.
To an outsider—
Oh ho? Feeling guilty?
Could it be that the deaths of the Zhu couple were truly related to them?
Could it be that the child who stayed behind really did, like Zhou Zhi in the book, travel alone with his sword on his back?
Could it be that there are other secrets behind this, besides the seizure of family property?
This is just great.
Regardless of whether it was their fault or not, due to inappropriate public relations and lack of experience in handling public opinion crises, the Zhu family has been scapegoated for countless wrongdoings.
At first, they thought the trend would pass quickly and people would gradually forget about the story.
However, to the Zhu family's surprise, Mr. Wuyu, a storyteller, became popular from the beginning of the year to the end, and from his previous book to this one!
Damn, I'm speechless!
Damn Canglang's Anthology!
Why can't things just stop?!
That's why this exceptionally indignant and scathing letter came about.
Gu Lang sat on a pile of books, holding the letter in his hand, seemingly able to sense the writer's emotions from the slightly messy handwriting.
"Hey, how dare you say that Mr. Wuyu is morally corrupt and that his stories have affected innocent passersby?"
"Hahahaha! What a joke! He actually said he'd give me 30,000 taels of silver for Canglang's collected works in exchange for suppressing Mr. Wuyu??"
"Is this how you treat a beggar?!"
Gu Lang was overjoyed.
He almost fell off the stack of books laughing when he saw that the Zhu family was going to offer money to bribe him, the young master of the Gu family.
After closing the letter, Gu Lang murmured to himself:
"So the Zhu family actually has some money... I wonder when Miss Zhu will go and claim her inheritance."
Then, he jumped down.
Approaching Mr. Li, who was comparing different book reviews, he said:
"Old Li, we must choose carefully this time."
"This time, 'Ten Thousand Book Reviews' is the first book review to appear after the completion of the outer sect miscellaneous servant's work. We can't leave out opinions from all sides, whether they are praise or criticism. The important thing is to cover different groups!"
Gu Lang had already understood.
It's impossible to please everyone when it comes to storytelling, and it's also impossible to avoid getting negative reviews!
The important thing is that someone has to watch it!
What's the difference between one person cursing you and a thousand people cursing you?
The difference lies in whether ten people have read your book or ten thousand people have read your book.
With Zhu Wuyao's writings as his weapon, Gu Lang felt a rare surge of heroic spirit.
Living comfortably in my cozy home and receiving praise from a few friends warms my heart, but something feels missing. I need to go through a rollercoaster of opinions, praise and criticism, expectations and disappointments before I can truly feel good.
He fanned himself with a folding fan, imagining the scene of "Ten Thousand Book Reviews" spreading throughout the entire continent of Mosan.
Heh...hehehe...
The Canglang Anthology is an asset of the Gu Family Business Company; only the Ten Thousand Volumes of Book Reviews truly belong to Gu Lang!
The next day, "Ten Thousand Book Reviews" went on sale!
Tang Xin arrived early to queue up because—
She also submitted a book review of "Outer Gate Servant" to Ink Trace Bookstore!
After paying the copper coins and receiving the 10,000 book reviews, she didn't eagerly start reading as she used to. Instead, she quickly flipped through the pages, looking for her own review in this issue.
When I turned to the fourth article, I finally saw a book review signed "A Tang".
A smile immediately appeared on her face.
He couldn't wait to rush back to the Star-Picking Tower and show off to his fellow disciples.
Tang Xin found a wine shop and sat down.
She ordered the waiter to bring her a jar of slightly sweet Zhuyeqing liquor. Only after the liquor was served did she solemnly open the book reviews and begin reading.
The first book review was signed "Yun Zhuying".
This person's book reviews have been included before, and each one is exceptionally insightful. Moreover, one can guess the foreshadowing in the article even before the next issue's manuscript appears.
For example, when the water without roots appeared, he immediately guessed that this was his sister's opportunity the next night.
At the same time, it points out the hidden meaning of the dual evil of water and fire, which is rootless water and unwarranted fire!
As expected, Mingchi entered the secret realm again in this life and went straight to the Spirit Herb Garden. With the Azure Water Elixir and the Yellow Spring Water to pave the way, he never expected that there would be hidden dangers in the Spirit Herb Garden.
In a moment of desperation, my sister will risk her life tomorrow night.
She was in water without roots, yet her lifespan remained intact and her reincarnation was limitless.
In a moment of extreme danger, she arrived carrying water without roots, as if a vast, boundless Yellow Springs were spreading out behind her.
It has an overwhelming presence!
Tomorrow night, her light blue dress will flutter without wind, gentle and beautiful, yet powerful and imposing.
Some suspected it was a fairy descending on the waves, while others were alarmed that it was a demon about to overturn the heavens and earth.
Mingchi saw the rootless water striking, and the ferocious beast's malevolence vanished. Overjoyed, he turned around and called out, "Sister!" He then leaped towards Mingwan in the air.
After disguising themselves, they rushed to provide assistance the following night.
Ming Chi carried the Azure Water Pill, which prevented Huang Quan from harming her until she reached Ming Wan's side.
Holding the elixir brimming with spiritual energy, she proudly waved it in front of Mingwan. Under everyone's watchful eyes, she raised an eyebrow and smiled, saying only one sentence to Mingwan:
"Let's go drink!"
