Excessive ferocity due to caution
Chapter 771 Borrowing a Knife
The moment the list was revealed, all sorts of information began flooding the screen.
The vast majority of them were praising the Lü family.
They didn't even look at the information on the list.
He closed his eyes and started blowing hard.
And so, it wasn't until the first wave of those who flooded the screen completely disappeared that more and more voices began to appear in the public eye.
"Shocking! Not only is the demon Zhao Yi alive, he has also inherited the position of branch manager of Lü Hong, the younger brother of the Lü family patriarch!"
"My god! Who's been bragging for days that the Lü family is going to save the world? It's hilarious! So embarrassing!"
"Ouch! What are you doing?!"
"This is the sun of the capital? The light of hope for the capital? Is this all?"
"I can't bear to watch, I can't bear to watch! The Lü family has completely lost face!"
"All they do is buy online trolls, and then have those trolls come out and keep hyping things up?"
"..."
After the wave of online trolls subsided, real people on the internet began to speak out wildly.
A few people who knew the true colors of the Lü family took the lead in stirring up trouble against them and launched a frenzied attack on them!
Behind the screen, Lu Mingbing, the head of the Lu family, had a grim face.
He stared intently at the film list released by the entertainment company, his eyes filled with disbelief.
How could that be...?
How could this guy possibly survive the killer movie he chose?
That's impossible!
It's impossible for anyone to come out of that movie alive... but apart from Zhao Yi, there were actually more than a dozen other members who completed the filming.
Although these people's completion rate was extremely low, they did manage to come out alive nonetheless.
Lu Mingbing stared intently at the information on the screen, the turmoil in his heart lingering for a long time...
He certainly didn't expect that the movie Zhao Yi starred in was not the one he had chosen at all.
He never imagined that so many people would survive to complete the film, simply because Zhao Yi had created such chaos within it.
When the water gets murky enough, there will always be a few fish that slip through the net.
"Family...the head of the family..."
"The Lü family," an elder spoke cautiously.
"What do we do now?"
The entire hall was completely silent.
They could certainly sense Lu Mingbing's anger.
This time, they really lost both their wife and their army.
They not only lost the power to control the Lu family's entertainment company branch, but also made a huge blunder due to excessive publicity, damaging the Lu family's prestigious image.
The Lü family, which had been propelled to great heights by the masses, has now plummeted to the ground.
It hurts so much.
The Lu family's online army continues to exert its influence.
Even though they spared no effort in praising the Lü family's "hard work" in a short period of time, they could not stop others from mocking and ridiculing them.
Not long ago, no matter how much they boasted, no one stood up to confront them.
But now... the tide has turned against them.
Moreover, many people in the capital know exactly what the Lü family is.
Those opinions... only fool those idiots who have poor eyesight and can't see the truth.
Some words drifted into Lü Mingbing's eyes, making the veins on his forehead throb.
"What should we do?"
"What else can we do?!"
"Quickly find the writer and shift the blame onto Zhao Yi!"
"While you're at it, contact the other actors who came from the same movie, bring them to the Lü family home, and have them stand up and give Zhao Yi a good smear!"
An elder in charge of the relevant matters hurriedly left, but after taking only a few steps, he turned back:
"Then, Master, what should we do with these people later?"
Lu Mingbing said viciously:
"Do I really need to teach you this step by step?"
"Once things calm down, we'll manipulate public opinion to shift the focus, then kill these guys and dig out everything they've been fed up with!"
The elder bowed and nodded, then turned to take care of the arrangements.
"That damned stray dog Zhao Yi, he's got a really lucky life!"
The warm light spread out like starlight, but when it fell on Lü Mingbing's tightly clenched fist, it appeared dim and particularly weak.
At this moment, Lü Mingbing realized with anger and helplessness that he had no way to kill Zhao Yi.
The old man in the family left them three powerful beings at the Sovereign Realm, which was certainly impressive, but another mad dog, Feng Nan, also reached the Sovereign Realm, and he was ridiculously strong!
With Feng Nan protecting Zhao Yi, not only will assassinating Zhao Yi become much more difficult, but it will also leave behind a very serious hidden danger—
That means that one or two of the three Sovereign Realm experts in the family might be killed by Feng Nan!
If that's the case, the Lü family will suffer huge losses!
"Patriarch... if all else fails, I do have a way to get rid of Zhao Yi."
After a long silence in the hall, a woman in a green dress finally spoke first.
Her bulky body was tinged with a sense of luxury, and the precious pendants on her body revealed her extraordinary status.
Lu Mingbing slowly raised his head, his murderous eyes staring directly at the woman.
"explain."
Woman in green dress:
"Mu Zi's house."
Lü frowned:
"It would be inappropriate to disturb them now."
The woman in the green dress smiled slightly:
"We need to disturb them now... that way, we'll provoke another force."
Lü Mingbing's eyes lit up:
"Are you trying to use someone else to do your dirty work?"
The woman in the green dress nodded:
"That's right."
"If the Skull Church does something clean enough, we'll clean up their mess."
"If they don't act cleanly, then we can expose the Li family's dealings with the Skull Church and climb higher by stepping on the Li family's corpses!"
After the woman finished speaking, another, relatively younger woman in yellow stepped forward to retort:
"My sister seems to be oversimplifying things!"
"If the church acts improperly, and we do not expose them, we may attract the attention of some old fogies at Tianhai Pass. If we do expose them, it will be tantamount to making an enemy of the Skull Church, and we will inevitably suffer retaliation from the Skull Church in the future."
"If those old fogies at Tianhai Pass can keep blocking the Church of the Skull, then it doesn't matter."
"But they are old and won't live much longer."
"When the Skull Church crosses the Tianhai Pass and enters the capital, they will settle both old and new scores!"
The woman in yellow's words were not without merit, leading to an eerie stalemate.
After pondering for a while, Lü Mingbing suddenly held up one finger:
"No, no..."
"The Skull Church can borrow it, or it can refuse it."
"Those old fogies at Tianhai Pass won't die that soon."
"After the Li family was destroyed, if they wanted to continue causing trouble in the capital, they had to find a new owner."
"And we are the best next buyer!"
"They...had no choice."
The more he spoke, the brighter and more ferocious Lü Mingbing's eyes became.
"In this process, we can appropriately sacrifice some interests and fabricate some falsehoods to reconcile our hostility with them!"
"Anyway, as long as we get on the good side of the Church of the Skull, our losses... can be recovered sooner or later!"
