Chapter 103: Those Near Will Bald
the ladder that leads to heaven.Several trials in secret realms, the consolidation of the solitary island between heaven and earth, plus the blessing of a sword infused with billions of starlight from...It's hard to say how much impact the incident of the teahouse being stripped and forcefully slapped had on Master. The consequences were quite profound, really.
But those who lived through it often couldn't see what came after, mostly just feeling the anger of being deceived in the moment.
When the Master was slapped down from his pedestal, people could finally see his true face hidden beneath his illusions.
This person was originally just a successor of a small, defunct sect. By chance, they obtained a King Mirage Pearl.
He didn't intend to cultivate diligently using the King of Mirage Pearl, but rather he used the pearl's illusionary powers to cheat and deceive. After successfully pulling off his first act of trickery, he became addicted to it.
For many years, he has deceived countless people, it can be said to be "a constant stream of wealth." Not to mention the spending, at this moment, there are thirty-eight storage compartments on his body alone.
The conman was discovered by Lee Lung-chuan, the man was subdued by Xu Xiangqian, and naturally, all of this information also ended up in their hands.

On Xiaoyueya Island, there are several sects, but none of them can convince everyone to accept them as the "official" one. Li Longchuan and his fellow Qi people would also never hand over these so-called "stolen goods" to Diao Hailou.
The whole thing was thanks to Li Longchuan's subtle divine power. Both Jiang Wang and Xu Xiangqian firmly stated that they wouldn't accept a penny, while Li Longchuan, who came from a prestigious family, was actually not short of these things.
But he thought of an ingenious way.
He sent all these "stolen goods" to Ice Phoenix Island, along with Master Nan Shu himself, to be tried and punished on Ice Phoenix Island.
Bing Huang Island is the overseas base of the Shimen Li clan. Li Fengyao, elder sister of Li Longchuan, is currently in charge on the island.

Li Longchuan set a rule. Anyone who had been cheated by the "Hard to Say Master" and could provide concrete evidence of their loss, could recover their losses on Phoenix Island until all the "loot" was recovered.

Throughout the entire process, the destination of every Dao Yuan Stone is publicly displayed, and Bing Huang Island never deducts half a stone.
The cleverness of this method lies in its maximum exploitation of the reputation of "the enigmatic master." It effectively expanded the influence of Bing Huang Dao. The more hateful this old swindler was, the more trustworthy Bing Huang Dao became in the eyes of seafarers.
And the public trial of the Master Difficult to Say on Ice Phoenix Island is unparalleled, it undoubtedly establishes the prestige of Ice Phoenix Island. It will create a consensus among seafarers—Ice Phoenix Island is also a force with legal authority in the nearby archipelago.
Just like in Qi, when people encounter injustice, the first thing they think of is the government. In the offshore islands, this role is replaced by various seafaring sects.

On this basis, Binghuang Island will no longer be seen as an external force belonging to the Li family of Shímen in Qi State, but like Jueming Island, it will be recognized by the islanders of the nearby archipelago.
As the legitimate son of the Li clan of Shimen, these methods of using people were cultivated from a young age. Li Longchuan's approach was grand and imposing, emphasizing the natural course of events. It wasn't shocking or outlandish, but it was unstoppable.
There is no doubt that the master's deeds will be spread more widely and deeply through this round of "returned property".
But it's worth pondering—

He was just a mere cultivator at the Tenglong Realm. How could he, with some vague and ambiguous pointers, become a sought-after master by everyone on the sea How many people truly understood his empty and meaningless chatter

But there was no questioning, only cheers. No one stood face to face, only those kneeling and prostrating themselves.

Reverence, blind obedience, and the tendency to follow the crowd, three people making a tiger out of nothing. This is not only true for ordinary people, but also for cultivators who possess extraordinary powers, there is no difference.
Just as Jiang Wang once said to Qing Huo in his inscription for the Floating Land, the people in that world above the heavens are not much different from those on the Floating Land.
But can it truly be called "transcendence" if it cannot surpass the limitations of the masses
It's hard to say if the master will be caught. No one has the mood for a quiet tea ceremony anymore.
Of course, Xu Xiangqian was an exception. He grandly ordered tea to be replenished, as if nothing had happened, and kept pestering Zhao Wuyan with words.
After the Master Incident, Yangliu felt extremely awkward and wished he could disappear into thin air. However, he couldn't leave. He knew very well that he had made a serious mistake in this matter. If he simply walked away like this, he would likely never get another chance.
Therefore, he was extremely reluctant to leave the teahouse. The three of them squeezed onto one table like that.
The group of fellow disciples he had gathered weren't easy to get rid of either, so they all stayed behind. These were ordinary disciples of the Fishing Sea Tower, purely brought along by Yang Liu as a way to make up the numbers and facilitate ambushes against Xu Xiangqian whenever needed. None of them held any real influence, so there was no need to dwell on them further.
Jiang Wang was too lazy to hang out with these three people, so he sat silently at the side table watching the show.
Li Longchuan was explaining things to the people from Binghuang Island at the door. It's hard to say that Master had already been tied up and carried away like a pig.
The faceless junior sister, that is, Shu girl, was sitting beside Jiang Wang—of course, arranged by Xu Xiangqian.
She stole glances several times at Jiang Wang, who was quietly sipping tea. She fidgeted and hesitated before softly asking, "You really are the Double Pride of Ma Shan"
This voice is truly pitifully small.
Fortunately, Jiang Wang's cultivation was successful, with keen hearing and sharp eyesight. Otherwise, he definitely wouldn't have been able to hear clearly.
But he still paused for a moment: “Huh”
Zi Shu secretly stuck out her finger and tapped the spot in front of her where Xu Xiangqian was dancing excitedly, "You two, Qi Ming Are you known as the 'Double Talented Young Masters of Ganma Mountain'"
Her tone was clearly laced with suspicion. After all, the two of them seemed to have vastly different personalities.
Here's the translation:>

“...I guess so.”
If it wasn't "The Two Heroes of Ghan Ma Shan" it would have just been a one-sided naming by someone else... He's not lying, really.
But at this moment, what could Jiang Wang say He couldn't possibly expose his friend on the spot, so he could only smile wryly.

"What is Ganma Mountain" After a few chats, Zishu was no longer so shy. Her curiosity was almost written all over her face.
"A, uh, special place." Jiang Wang was a bit embarrassed. This wasn't easy to make up, Xu Xiangqian hadn't been in a good mood beforehand either!
"Oh, I see," Zi Shu was very understanding: "Then I won't ask."
... I don't know if she understood anything at all.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
After a moment, she asked again, "I heard you defeated Wang Yiwu in only two moves"
Jiang Wang was stunned for a moment, but then he understood why it was two moves. He said helplessly: "Xu Xiangqian said he only needed one move, right"
Zi Shu was surprised: "How did you know"
This child is too naive!
Jiang Wang sighed: "In the future, you should still keep your distance from Xu Xiangqian!"
>
“Huh” Zi Shu questioned, “Why He’s actually a bad person”
He's not that bad, but you're too gullible! How can you believe everything he says Jiang Wang thought to herself.
Of course, one couldn't say that directly. So he had to say, "He's too close to him, I could easily get infected!"
Zi Shu widened her eyes: "Infectious with what"
Jiang Wang looked around, covering her lips with the back of her hand, and whispered mysteriously: "Hair shedding!"
Zi Shu covered her mouth in surprise, then glanced again at Xu Xiangqian's naturally shiny forehead. She couldn't help but get nervous: "No, I have to tell my senior sister."
"That's not necessary." Jiang Wang quickly stopped her. He certainly didn't want to be chased and hacked by Xu Xiangqian with a sword, and explained: "After setting up the Holy Tower, there will be the power of stars to protect your body, so there won't be this trouble. Your senior sister should have it, do you"
“Not really.” Zishu shook her head bashfully. “I’m only at the first stage of Inner Refinement.”
She seemed quite ashamed, unaware that at her age, her inner strength was truly remarkable.
Jiang Wang, of course, knew she hadn't reached the outer courtyard realm. Thus, he said sternly, "You need to stay away from him. This is no joke."
"Hmm!" Zi Shu nodded vigorously.
After a while, she came closer and whispered, "You're so kind."
“Hmm.” Jiang Wang was at that moment enjoying the exchange of barbs between Xu Xiangqian and Yang Liu, so upon hearing this, he gave an indifferent reply and asked in confusion, “Huh”
Zi Shu said seriously: "Friend, this kind of private matter, you, such a dignified gentleman, definitely wouldn't want to tell others. But because you care about me and worry that... I might go bald. You still told me. You are truly a good person."
After all, Jiang Wang wasn't Xu Xiangqian. He still had some pride left.
So his face flushed instantly, and he could only lower his head and take a sip of tea to cover up his embarrassment.

Many years later, Xu Xiangqian pursued the origin of the rumor "those close to him are bald," intending to punish its source, but he could never have imagined that it had already been born in the spring of 3919 AD.emple.
