Dai Mubai Becomes Famous

Clap clap clap~

After the deacon finished speaking, the crowd around him broke into applause.

"Deacon, you are truly brilliant. With a leader like you guiding us, we are truly blessed. [Ten thousand words of praise for the deacon omitted here.]"

Just as the deacon listened to the crowd below flattering him—

"Deacon, the projection soul device has already been secretly placed inside. Do you want to watch it now?"

The deacon waved his hand. "Play it. Let everyone have a look. Though I alone would be enough to deal with them, you should all think of some ideas too. That way, you can share some of the credit afterward."

"Wise Deacon" × N

More than thirty Spirit Hall enforcers, along with Suotuo City residents and passing soul master merchants, all stared curiously at the giant projection screen.

In an instant—truly, in a single instant!

Over a hundred people, above and below, suddenly fell silent. Every mouth hung open.

Shock, bewilderment, horror... and above all, utter disbelief.

(Sweatdrop)

"Uh, Little Wang, did you play the wrong thing? You can watch this sort of stuff in private if you want, but how can you spread obscene material?"

Little Wang's face darkened as he stared at the deacon. "Deacon, I... did... not."

"Ahem! Well, I merely spoke without thinking. Don't take it to heart."

"Holy shit! Is this kind of insane stuff really allowed to be shown?"

"What the hell is this?"

"I really feel sorry for those two pretty girls in there!"

At once, everyone around the alley who could see the screen erupted into an uproar.

At some point, Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong had sat down together. Not only were they watching with great interest, they were even pointing and commenting on it.

Luo Yihe glared at Ning Rongrong with considerable dissatisfaction, afraid she would lead Zhu Zhuqing astray. What he wanted was a cool, mature beauty, not some lecherous pervert, damn it.

Dai Mubai's screams echoed throughout the room.

Seven or eight minutes later... the ugly man in black straightened his clothes and walked out looking refreshed.

He swept his gaze across everyone present.

Other than Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong, everyone stood up and respectfully bowed to the ugly man in black, shouting in unison, "Big Brother is awesome."

For some reason, when the ugly man in black heard them collectively praise him, his head involuntarily tilted upward slightly. With his hands behind his back, he swaggered through the group of youths.

After the ugly evil soul master left, everyone became curious and hopped toward Dai Mubai.

When they saw Dai Mubai's appearance... they all fell silent. Why the hell was his complexion so rosy?

Outside, everyone from Spirit Hall and everyone else present could not stop themselves from saying, "Holy shit!"

No one knew who had first shouted it, but everyone who heard it felt that those words were perfectly suited to the situation.

They could not imagine how the man inside, after enduring the darkest seven minutes of his life, would face his fellow townspeople in the future.

"Deacon, we've found out who they are. Of the seven youths inside, four are students of Shrek Academy. The other three are ordinary people."

"But... one of the girls is the daughter of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's Sect Master, and that bullied youth is a prince who fled from the Star Luo Empire."

"What? The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect? And a prince of Star Luo?"

"Uh... uh!"

"Listen to me. After we rescue them, don't release them yet. Notify the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and the Star Luo Empire to pay up. Damn it, we only protect ordinary people. These nobles are none of our concern. Once they're rescued, arrest everyone with status."

"Yes!"

"Oh, right. Bring their boss over here!"

"Huh? No, Deacon! We put in tremendous effort to capture him alive. That guy is a minor leader and has vital information on evil soul master activities. Once we let him go, we won't get another chance."

p(╬Ò‸Ó)q

The deacon roared, "Follow the Young Master's orders. Ordinary lives must be saved. Bring him over first and stabilize that guy's emotions. Killing nobles is one thing, but if he kills those civilian soul masters, won't the Young Master blame us? Three Soul Sages, six Soul Emperors, sixteen Soul Kings, and several Soul Elders—so many people capturing one Soul Sage, two Soul Emperors, and one Soul King. If something still goes wrong, would we have the face to see the Young Master?"

"Yes! I'll go at once."

Seeing the ugly man return, the burly man said, "Kill someone while you're at it."

"Hehe! No problem, Second Brother. I'll go right away."

Then Luo Yihe and the others saw the ugly man in black approach with a beaming smile, his eyes fixed directly on Luo Yihe.

Luo Yihe: Σ(°Д°;)

Tang San: (Laughing)

"Holy shit! Big Brother, what are you trying to do?!"

Xiao Chenghe gritted his teeth. "What are you doing? Let my big brother go. If you've got the guts, come at me."

Luo Yihe: (Hugging)

Is this what brotherhood is?

To his surprise, the ugly man in black really turned to look at Xiao Chenghe.

Xiao Chenghe: "..."

(Sweatdrop)

"Ahem! Well, Big Brother, I... I was wrong."

Luo Yihe: "..."

"You bastard..."

Zhu Zhuqing suddenly grabbed Luo Yihe's hand and looked at him with determined eyes. Feeling her touch in his hand, Luo Yihe was deeply moved.

Sure enough, when it mattered, brothers were meant to be sold out. Only a wife would treat him wholeheartedly.

Zhu Zhuqing said, "Luo Yihe, I... I won't despise you."

Luo Yihe: "..."

(╬-_-)

Can't you hope for the best for me?

The ugly man in black let out a sinister cackle. "Hehe, what are you thinking? I'm an evil soul master with a cleanliness obsession. I never sleep with idiots—it would affect my intelligence. I wouldn't dare touch the two of you. I came because Big Brother ordered me to kill one person and show the Spirit Hall enforcers outside, so they'll release my big brother sooner."

Luo Yihe: "..."

Xiao Chenghe: "..."

The two brothers exchanged a glance.

What did he mean? Was he calling us idiots?

But before Luo Yihe and the others could ask, the ugly man in black reached out to grab Luo Yihe.

Luo Yihe hurriedly backed away in fright.

"Don't fucking touch me. You're filthy."

Luo Yihe said with obvious disgust.

{Ding, negative emotions from Ding Yi +444}

Hearing Luo Yihe speak of him that way, the ugly man in black flew into a rage and roared, "What nonsense are you spouting, brat? I'm extremely clean, all right? I brush my teeth once a month and bathe once every six months."

As he spoke, he even seemed rather aggrieved.

Luo Yihe, Zhu Zhuqing, and Xiao Chenghe backed away even farther.

"What are you doing? You don't believe me? Then smell me! I really do brush my teeth every month!"

Luo Yihe and the others retreated several more steps, nearly pressing against the wall.

Yet this ugly evil soul master still refused to give up. He simply wanted Luo Yihe and the others to smell him, so he kept advancing toward them.
