I am a demonic cultivator, not a capitalist with a conscience.

Chapter 328 Ratings Are Everything (16)

"Mr. Chen, your previous schemes and tricks have been exposed. Do you have anything to say about that?"

Looking at Yan Dazui chattering incessantly on his shoulder, Chen Yu felt utterly helpless.

He's so brave!

He came here with murderous intent, clearly intending to kill, but instead of surrendering, he came to interview and do live broadcasts. This behavior is simply unbeatable.

And what's going on with Fukuzawa City?

He had thought about this before: the people here seem to be bloodthirsty spectators. They cheer and wave flags when they see rivers of blood, and they get excited and fly into the sky when they see severed limbs. It's practically a base camp for inhumanity.

He could easily smash Yan Dazui on his shoulder into mincemeat with his bare hands, yet the other party showed no fear and gave him no face whatsoever.

How can you be even more demonic than ghost cultivators!

And what does "conspiracy and intrigue" even mean?
I just wanted to create a dream, and you guys gave me a bunch of titles just to steal it. It's like a 2077 version of "give a bad name and you'll always find a reason to accuse someone".

More vulgar than a frog's piss, a bastard that would make even a rat spit!

Seeing that Chen Yu seemed to disagree with this statement, Yan Dazui continued, "As everyone knows, Sangmu City's resource is trees, while Fuze City's resource is patients. Now, everyone is saying that in order to seize Fuze City's resources, you've gone so far as to create dreams to spread harmful ideas and bewitch a group of naive new medical cultivators to play with your dreams. Many bad guys in the prison cells are also saying that they went astray because they played with your dreams. What are your thoughts on this?"

"Can't you at least have some basic principles of law when you're spreading rumors?!"

Please answer with "yes" or "no," okay?

Chen Yu initially wanted to slap the guy to death, but he quickly realized a problem.

My negative emotions have increased.

As the saying goes, my hero is the enemy's foe.

Now that Fukuzawa City has started targeting Tengen, our heroes are seen as enemies by the other side.

Through Yan Dazui's propaganda, he seemed to have become the most vicious and wicked schemer in the history of Fuzhe City. The higher the ratings of the other party, the stronger his negative image would become.

Since I wasn't expecting to have a good image in Fukuzawa anyway, I might as well give it a try.

So Chen Yu didn't refute anymore, but instead laughed lewdly.

Facing the camera, Chen Yu grinned smugly and said, "That's right, I did all the bad things, I planned all the conspiracies. I want to steal patients from Fuze City, I want them to come to me for treatment!"

"That's awful!" Yan Dazui exclaimed excitedly. "So, how are you going to torture those patients?"

Chen Yu wanted to ask, "Why am I torturing them?"
I need to treat them!

But then, thinking about his current villainous persona, he immediately said, "Oh right, right, right! I'm going to torture them, abuse them, I'm going to make sure they only have to stay in triple rooms, with three people sharing one toilet. From admission to surgery, it'll only take one day, and they have to be discharged as soon as they're better. Everyone has to pay a 5,000 yuan deposit upon admission, and medical insurance will only reimburse them for 50%... Why did it increase?!"

Chen Yu was puzzled by his sudden surge of positive emotions.

Why is it going up?
Yan Dazui stared at Chen Yu in shock, then suddenly exclaimed excitedly, "The Mr. Chen in front of me is a fraud! Such treatment is impossible! I urge all patients and their families to be aware that anyone promising a cure for under 5,000 yuan is a fraud! Anyone promising reimbursement is also a fraud!"

"Go to hell! What the hell was this hospital doing before?!"

"It's about making money. If a hospital doesn't make money, can it even be called a hospital?" "I'll take you down one day. No, I can take you down right now!"

Suddenly, Chen Yu was startled.

His body instinctively shrank back, and a streak of light flew past Yu Linqi's shoulder.

This stream of light was only as thick as a thumb, but its energy was astonishing. All the equipment along its path was vaporized by the light, and even a piece of his puppet was cut off.

Looking up, he saw a puppet clinging to a towering television tower in the distance, like a gecko, its heavy flying sword charging up, ready to fire at him again.

"A sword cultivator? They actually managed to hire someone with that kind of talent!"

Pressing the fallen fragments back into place, Yan Dazui was so excited by the self-healing puppet that he danced with joy, exclaiming, "Look! This is the unique secret technique of the evil puppet pilot, Chen Yu, the Great Demon King—the Demonic Bloodshed Technique! When this technique is activated, the sky darkens, the sun and moon lose their light, and the essence and blood of all living beings around are absorbed to restore the Demon King's life. You ask me why I'm fine? Because I took the Holy Source Kidney Treasure Tablets! One Holy Source Kidney Treasure Tablet isn't enough, two beds aren't enough, three walls aren't enough! After you've been over-drained, take the Holy Source Kidney Treasure Tablets!"

Chen Yu wanted to kill this guy again.

However, seeing his negative emotions rising and his positive emotions falling, he suddenly felt that this mosquito-like guy wasn't so bad after all.

Doing nothing, just consider it hiring a mood-boosting team to help create negative emotions.

After deciding to spare Yan Dazui's life, Chen Yu activated the Wind God Formation and charged towards the TV tower, but he quickly jumped back after only getting halfway there.

In a split second, the ground suddenly opened up, and chains resembling octopus tentacles emerged from the ground.

Realizing it hadn't caught Chen Yu, the octopus-like puppet crawled out from underground. Just as it was about to open its mouth, Chen Yu sped up, shoved his fist into its mouth, and then unleashed a burst of lightning.

After the hand was withdrawn, the entire puppet was charred by electricity, and the pilot inside was reduced to ashes.

"Family members, what did I just see! Chen Yu, the Great Demon King, has killed again! The other driver was almost instantly turned into charcoal, it was too cruel! Wait, a paid user wants you to swallow the other driver alive next time, Chen Yu, he is willing to pay a reward of 3,000 mana for this act! Chen Yu, the Great Demon King, please agree."

"Tell me that paid user's address; he'll be next to die!"

"As expected of the Great Demon King, he's already threatening the audience! He's really too evil! Now let's look at the current live broadcast ratings. The total rating for the entire Changsheng Prefecture is three per thousand, ranking 170th among all duelists throughout history. Chen Yu, give it your all!"

Too lazy to pay attention to Yan Dazui, Chen Yu dodged to the side, and the sword light fell close to him, this time without causing any damage.

Although the sword light was powerful, it was all for naught if it missed. The TV tower in front of them was in a very fixed position, and they could dodge it with a little sense.

Chen Yu pointed at the puppet on the TV tower, shrugged, then dodged to the side, grabbed the attacking puppet, and snapped its arm.

He then inserted the other person's arm into the cockpit, rendering the entire puppet unusable in 2.7 seconds.

After kicking the puppet aside, Chen Yu felt it would be better to ignore the gecko puppet for now and go find Wang Chuyun first.

Having located the Spiritual Hospital, Chen Yu rushed towards it.
