"That's not right. I saw Qin Tian deal with those guys who were with him. How come so many people suddenly appeared?" Bai Yuanyi couldn't figure it out.

"That might be the reason."

Jiang Shu held up his phone and showed the screen to the others:

"I was just live streaming."

Looking at the 9999+ viewers in the live stream, the precise location tracking, and the screen full of comments like "Isn't that my wife?" and "Wasn't she getting her hair done?", Bai Yuanyi and Lin Xian'er fell silent.

Seeing this, Qin Tian grinned and gave Jiang Shu a thumbs up.

"You're even better at causing trouble than I am. To be honest, I'm a little envious of you. With that kind of ability, you can get injured every day without doing anything."

Chapter Sixty-Two: Famous Throughout the Capital

The next day.

The entire capital city, from top to bottom, was captivated by a news story—

A mysterious man caused trouble in the Xiu Ti Bar Street, sparking a brawl involving hundreds of people and causing serious damage to surrounding buildings. Both sides later claimed it was a misunderstanding, and the cause of the incident is under further investigation.

As everyone knows, the fewer the words, the bigger the matter.

Such a small line of text could occupy the front page of the morning news; those in the know simply don't believe it's just a chaotic battle.

Even though in the capital city, where dangerous kings and dangerous emperors are everywhere, it is already a once-in-a-century event that someone dares to disregard the rules and carry out such a large-scale battle, everyone believes that there must be even more unknown secrets behind the event.

Rumors flew everywhere.

Soon, someone uncovered the so-called inside story.

Why is it that despite it being a chaotic battle involving hundreds of people, the news reports didn't mention the specific names of any of the people involved?

Since many of the people involved were even experts of the Danger Sect, the only person who could suppress them single-handedly was a Danger Venerable or even higher level expert.

For ordinary cultivators, the Threat Emperor realm is already the pinnacle that most people can reach. Anything beyond that is no longer a matter of a single realm or level.

They didn't even dare to publish it in the news!

The mastermind behind this terrifying force capable of destroying most of the cities on the Insurance Continent—what exactly did they do? No one even dared to imagine.

Some say it's because a demon lord who could incur the wrath of heaven and man was born, causing fear and a united front to besiege him.

Some say that a rare treasure appeared in the bar street, and many powerful figures fought over it, unintentionally causing chaos.

Some even went so far as to say that they stayed up late last night and saw on a live stream that a DJ had slept with the wives of these big shots, so the big shots teamed up to kill the DJ.

The first two have many fans, but the last one is just something to watch for fun.

Even if it's unofficial history, this is way too unofficial.

Who can sleep with, and who dares to sleep with, the wives of those big shots?

They even said that someone was live-streaming it. Who would be so arrogant and stupid?

Do people not even use their brains when making up lies these days?

In short, opinions were divided for a time, and for a long time to come, the cause of this incident will likely remain a topic of conversation and become another urban legend.

The hardworking and conscientious type.

"You dare to take on this kind of thing for someone you've only known for a short time? And you even suppressed your cultivation level, I think you're really crazy!" The sect leader angrily rebuked Qin Tian.

"Hehehe..."

"If you laugh like that again, I'll slap you!"

"Uh..." Qin Tian cleared his throat: "I'm currently trying to break through to the Saintly Realm. This kind of opportunity is once in a lifetime, so I haven't thought too much about it."

"A Saint of Peril?" The sect leader's expression suddenly softened, with a hint of surprise: "Good, good, good. Once you become a Saint of Peril, I can confidently pass on the position of sect leader to you. Such a young Saint of Peril, given time, may well be able to challenge the Emperor of Peril. I am already old, and in this life I can only stagnate at the Saint of Peril realm, but you may have the opportunity to make the five major sects take my Hardworking and Dedicated Sect as their leader!"

"Difficult," Qin Tian sighed upon hearing this.

"You lack confidence?"

"It's not that I lack confidence," Qin Tian shook his head. "It's just that there are countless heroes in this world. In this generation, I am not considered to be a person of exceptional talent. Yesterday, I met the number one young talent from another sect. I think they are probably also waiting for an opportunity to break through to the level of a perilous saint."

The sect leader paused for a moment, then sighed, "This is a great era."

"However..." Qin Tian looked directly into the sect leader's eyes: "Besides them, I also met an amateur whose talent and his ability to court death are above mine... no, perhaps above all of us!"

"Who?"

The indomitable group.

"Change jobs every day?" The sect leader was taken aback: "Don't talk nonsense, who can be proficient in every single one of the 360 ​​professions?"

“I’ve seen all those offers, and many of them are from big companies. Their standards can’t be low. We’ve really struck gold!” Bai Yuanyi said with great certainty.

The sect leader summoned Bai Yuanyi this morning, intending to question him about why he wasn't at work and instead got involved in last night's troubles. However, Bai Yuanyi didn't take it seriously at all and instead strongly recommended a stranger he had just met to the sect leader.

"Then I really want to see him, but he has caused such a big mess, I need to think about it." The sect leader seemed a little hesitant.

Unexpectedly, Bai Yuanyi, who knew him well, rolled his eyes and urged, "What are those troubles to you? Don't put on airs. If you want to take him in, you'd better hurry up. Don't think about how to use him as leverage to exploit him. He has more than one option."

"What do you mean?"

“He has more than one skill. Besides me, he is probably also being watched by people from the other four major sects.”

The "Immune to All Diseases" faction.

"Xian'er, is it true?"

"Replying to Master, I saw it all with my own eyes."

Wearing a bulky hazmat suit, Lin Xian'er performed a difficult bow:

"He can rival gods with a mortal body. What ordinary people consider incurable diseases are like colds and fevers to him, and he can heal himself. If he cultivates the sect's techniques, although he can't get sick as easily as I do, he doesn't need to progress step by step. Instead, he can bring serious illnesses into his body from the very beginning, making his cultivation speed a thousand times or ten thousand times faster than ordinary people!"

"Such a genius is not someone our Invulnerable Sect can afford to miss!" The sect leader was determined to acquire him.

"However..." The sect leader looked at Lin Xian'er with some heartache: "If he is really as amazing as you say, and his talent even surpasses your Calamity Poison Body, then after he joins the sect, the entire sect will inevitably pour resources into him. Will you... feel wronged?"

"It's alright." Lin Xian'er shook her head. "Everything is for the prosperity of the sect. My personal gains and losses are nothing. Besides..."

"Besides?"

"Besides, I've made up my mind." Lin Xian'er's tone was full of determination: "I want to marry him, and when his cultivation level is similar to mine, we will cultivate together. At that time, the cross-infection between us will definitely be of great benefit to both of us!"

The "many children, many blessings" school of thought.

"Such an extraordinary person?" After listening to the young woman's description, the sect leader was also very curious: "Just one song, and he has priority in choosing a spouse, even your proud and arrogant Liu Ruyi has to speak well of him?"

"Don't misunderstand, Sect Master." The young woman Liu Ruyi chuckled. "I don't know him at all, and I've never spoken to him. So there's no personal relationship between us. I have no reason to speak well of him. These are just my objective conclusions."

“Indeed.” The sect leader nodded in agreement: “This may not be much, and you could do it easily too. But you said that your competitors are all around him and seem to have a good relationship with him. Qin Tian even helped him with such a big matter. That’s interesting. This person’s charisma seems to be no less than yours or mine.”

"Ah."

Liu Ruyi tentatively said:

"Moreover, from my observation, when they were around that person, they didn't act like they were familiar with him and he was the one who led the way."

They would only exchange a few words when they were behind that person's back, probably because of that person, who may not even know their identities.

Those people were all arrogant and proud; he wouldn't have gone to such lengths if he didn't have something they valued.

"Just such a coincidence?" The sect leader smiled meaningfully. "He just happened to be able to bring you all together and put on such a big show?"

"Whether it was a coincidence or he did it on purpose, it doesn't matter anymore, does it?" Liu Ruyi blinked.

The sect leader was stunned for a moment, then clapped and cheered for Jiang Shu: "Hahaha, it really doesn't matter anymore."

The late bloomer type.

The senior management is having a morning meeting.

"You've all heard about what happened last night, right?" the sect leader asked.

Everyone nodded in agreement.

"From what I understand, the incident was caused by a young man who had just arrived in the capital and got into trouble." The sect leader spoke leisurely, just like the relaxed state of his cultivation technique: "However, what's interesting is that someone helped him clean up the mess, and he was still perfectly fine this morning. I heard that he was working at a car repair shop early this morning."

"You still have the mind to go to work? You're amazing." Everyone couldn't help but laugh.

It's human nature to be a gossipmonger. They actually knew something about what happened last night and were well aware that the truth was not as simple as the sect leader's claim of causing trouble.

However, they were all very curious as to why the sect leader would bring this up in the first place. Wasn't the sect leader always someone who preferred peace and quiet, disliked crowds, and didn't care about such gossip?

"What's even more interesting is that the person who cleaned up his mess was the successor of the sect leader of the other four major sects."

The sect leader smiled:

Qin Tian, ​​the hardworking and conscientious type, helped him deal with the people who came to kill him; Bai Yuanyi, the indomitable type, helped him clean up the mess after Qin Tian; Lin Xian'er, the immune-to-illness type, helped him take care of the media; and Liu Ruyi, the fertility type, bribed the people who were present at the time to shut them up.

Seeing how powerful he was, I asked someone to get his birth chart (Ba Zi). Then I discovered his fate was incredibly strong—so strong that even if the sky were torn apart and collapsed, it wouldn't kill him.

Someone immediately asked, "Wouldn't that be perfect for cultivating our late-blooming success insurance?"

"Yes, the tougher one's life force, the more suitable one is to cultivate this sect's techniques."

The sect leader nodded, then changed the subject, looking at an elderly man with white hair at the head of the right: "By the way, Elder Sun, three days ago, didn't Deacon Liu Ji bring a young man here, wanting him to join our sect?"

Elder Sun was puzzled, but he still answered instinctively, "Yes."

"Then why was the application rejected?"

"Because he has wicked intentions." Elder Sun said without hesitation.

"Oh, I see." The sect leader nodded. "Then I'm a little curious, have you seen him before?"

"No... no." Elder Sun shook his head.

"Then how can you be so sure he has bad intentions?"

"Because he is a descendant of that pair of swindlers from many years ago, like father, like son, he must not be a good person either."

"That's strange then." The sect leader looked puzzled. "If he wasn't a good person, how could he have won the favor of the successors of the four major sects? How could he have made them willing to lower themselves and clean up such a huge mess for him?"

"You mean..." Elder Sun belatedly realized what was going on.

The others also sensed that the atmosphere was becoming somewhat awkward, and dared not laugh out loud as they had before.

"In my opinion, it's just that young people are a bit impetuous and prone to causing trouble. Everyone goes through this stage, it's normal, Elder Sun, don't you agree?" The sect leader asked with a kind smile.

“Yes… Sect Master, you’re right…” Elder Sun’s forehead began to bead with cold sweat.

"But Elder Sun," the sect leader sighed, sounding utterly disappointed, "it's because of your stereotypes, and your laziness in not even bothering to investigate, that we've missed out on such a talent. You've personally pushed someone who was originally going to join our sect, someone with limitless potential, to one of the other four major sects."

"I...I...I didn't expect this..."

"Elder Sun...it's not important whether you've thought about it or not." The sect leader's kind gaze turned sharp: "What's important is that you'll find a way to make amends, won't you?"

"Yes! I will make up for it! I will get everything back on track!" Elder Sun stood up abruptly, his back ramrod straight.

Liu Ji, who was standing in the corner taking meeting minutes, almost dropped his pen when he saw this comical scene.

Jiang Shu's image appeared in his mind.

Three days!

This guy accomplished in just three days what he had once thought was the words of a madman—

"I want to see how interesting his expression will be when he has to give in to his petty nature in the face of the rules and even begs me to join the sect."

Liu Ji suddenly realized.

rule?

The sect leader is the rule!

......

"Tofu pudding, cold noodles, tofu pudding, tofu pudding, cold noodles~"

Early in the morning, all sorts of hawking cries echoed through the streets of the small town.

After raising the initial capital for Jiang Shu, the sect leaders, now penniless, had no means of engaging in recreational activities. They could only gather in teahouses every day to chat, read newspapers, and play chess, prematurely beginning their retirement life.

"Oh dear, the capital is really not peaceful these days. How come there are still people who dare to cause trouble there?"

One of them showed the newspaper in his hand to the other old friends.

"Tsk tsk tsk." Someone shook their head and clicked their tongue: "Such a big thing can go completely unnoticed. The capital city is truly full of hidden talents."

"Speaking of which, is there any news about that kid?" someone suddenly asked.

"Don't rush." ​​The only expert of the Danger Sect, the rusty and ruddy sect leader, a rough man who never puts down his big sword, reassured everyone: "Look at how chaotic and murky the capital is right now. How can a kid from a small place like him settle down so quickly? Let's give him some time."
