However, this person was different from those guys. His only target was Cheng Lin, and he had no interest whatsoever in this so-called successor.

In the past, he pinched Cheng Lin’s head until it exploded, personally confirming that she had died both in soul and body. But, after all these years, he felt that there was something wrong with the whole situation.

He felt that someone like Cheng Lin couldn’t die so easily…

The figure clenched its teeth, and said, “Don’t let me find you. If I discover that you are still alive, I’ll pursue and kill you even if you run to the end of the earth!”

The poisonous mist got thicker and thicker, completely shrouding the figure.

❄️❄️❄️

In the meantime.

Venerable White rode his flying sword and brought Su Clan’s Sixteen and Song Shuhang outside the territory of the Jade Lake.

At this time, Venerable White was still wearing that phoenix coronet and phoenix robe.

He was planning to quietly move the whole territory of the Jade Lake Realm outside this ancestral land of the Limitless Demon Sect, transferring it to his own domain. Therefore, he had no choice but to wear this equipment, which was the core of the Jade Lake Realm, to make things easier.

Su Clan’s Sixteen didn’t dare to make a sound and silently gazed at the confident Venerable White, who was now planning to quietly move the Jade Lake Realm from the ancestral land of the Limitless Demon Sect.

Song Shuhang was even more careful during the whole journey because he had the feeling that the ‘risks’ in the sentence [the key to wealth lay in taking risks] had yet to come! Therefore, he had to be 200% more alert so as to avoid going through something as tragic as what had happened in the world of the golden lotus of the scholarly faction.

Thirty minutes later…

Venerable White managed to successfully bring Song Shuhang and Su Clan’s Sixteen out of the Jade Lake Realm.

Afterward, the group of three humans, plus a monster tree and a monster onion, happily returned to True Monarch Yellow Mountain’s filmmaking company.

This time around, it seemed that the ‘risks’ had gone on holiday and didn’t come to look for them!

❄️❄️❄️

At this time, the sun was setting, and the sky was gradually darkening.

Song Shuhang sighed with emotion.

Another day full of events had come to an end.

However, the next few days shouldn’t be this eventful…

In the following days, the members of the Nine Provinces Number One Group should be busy with the matter related to ❮Apocalypse War❯. Before the screening of the movie, Song Shuhang should be able to rest a bit. After that, they would wait for the premiere of the movie.

Speaking of which, in the whole Nine Provinces Number One Group, Song Shuhang was probably the person that looked forward to the screening of the movie the most.

The reason was that he desperately needed to come out ‘clean’ of this mess!

In those few scenes of ❮Apocalypse War❯’s trailer, Senior Brother Gao Sheng’s character was vilified more than necessary.

Therefore, the whole Internet was full of messages such as: [Senior Brother Gao Sheng must die!], [Down with Senior Brother Gao Sheng, save Ling Ye!], [Track down Senior Brother Gao Sheng!], [F*ck Senior Brother Gao Sheng!], and so on.

Even Mama Song had called him and told Song Shuhang that she wanted to cut off their mother-son relationship. What a tragedy!

Therefore, Song Shuhang was looking forward to the screening of the movie so that the audience would change their impression of Senior Brother Gao Sheng’s character.

Hopefully, after the watching the movie and witnessing his heroic death, the audience would give Senior Brother Gao Sheng’s character some love!

As long as everyone gave him a little bit of love, the world would change into a better place.

After all, everyone needed some love!

Aside from Song Shuhang, another person that was really looking forward to the screening of the movie was ‘Senior When the Bright Moon Appears’. He really hoped that the audience would finally remember that villain with the exquisite armor—in other words, him—after the screening of the movie.

To know whether this tiny wish would be realized or not… we would have to wait for the day of the screening!

❄️❄️❄️

After Venerable White brought Song Shuhang and the others out of the desert, leaving the borders of the ancestral land of the Limitless Demon Sect, Shuhang’s mobile phone was finally able to get a signal again.

After the signal returned, Song Shuhang’s phone rang continuously.

He had received nearly a hundred text messages.

This many messages? Was it possible that someone was spam-bombing him with messages? Nowadays, there was always some annoying guy that would use this stupid method to harass others.

But I’m not a pretty girl, what’s the point of harassing me…?

Song Shuhang tapped with his finger and opened his inbox.

Then, he discovered that his inbox was filled with messages from familiar people.

The majority of these people were classmates. These classmates were both from Jiangnan’s university and the high school he attended previously. The next group was made up by his relatives.

Song Shuhang’s face darkened. He didn’t even need to click on the messages to guess the contents.

However, he still casually clicked on a few of them.

The majority of the messages from his classmates were like the following:

[Shuhang, it was you that played Senior Brother Gao Sheng’s role, right? No need to deny, because I also saw Gao Moumou, Tubo, and Yangde in the trailer of the movie. F*ck, am I dreaming? It was a movie that Director Jacob directed personally! Introduce us!]

I hadn’t expected that Senior Spirit Butterfly would manage to invite Director Jacob to direct the movie! In addition, I’m not that familiar with Director Jacob, and I can’t introduce you two!

[Shuhang, introduce me to Ling Ye! I’m already a die-hard fan of his!]

Senior White’s fanboys (and fangirls) have walked amidst society for thousands of years already, and they are spread all over the world… no, even all over the universe. If every fanboy requested to be introduced to Senior White, I wouldn’t be able to complete this task in my lifetime.

[Gao Shenghang, you are dead meat! Of course, if you are willing to introduce me to Senior Sister Murong Hua, I’ll forgive you.]

As for this message, Song Shuhang decided to forward it to Medicine Master without changing a single word.

[Hello, Senior Brother Gao Sheng, it’s now time for us to part ways~ Actually, if you introduce me to that sunshine boy called Senior Brother Feng Chuanzi, I might cutely let you off.]

As for this message, Song Shuhang decided to forward it Miss Riverly Purple Mist without changing a single word.

[Shuhang, there are people willing to pay a high price to dig out information about you. According to what I’ve heard, they will give out six coupons if Senior Brother Gao Sheng is found. Therefore… aren’t you planning to treat me to something to shut my mouth?]

Our friendship is over! Tsk, our friendship was unexpectedly worth only six coupons.

[Senior Brother Gao Sheng, return me my Ling Ye! My dear Ling Ye was bullied by you again and again! I’m so sad, I hate you so much~]

This phone number is better put in the blacklist. The person that sent this message is actually a man. Therefore, he surely swings that way!

[I challenge Senior Brother Gao Sheng to a match on behalf of Jiangnan University’s boxing club!]

In the past, I gave the vice-president of the freestyle grappling club, Nan Haomeng, a good beating. If you want to challenge me, go beat that big fellow Nan Haomeng first.

After he had scrolled down, he discovered that most of the messages his classmates sent were similar to these ones.

Actually, Song Shuhang had a pretty good relationship with these classmates that messaged him.

After all, he would bother adding their phone numbers only if he had a good relationship with them.

As the saying went, birds of a feather flock together.

Most of these classmates were surprised at how lucky Song Shuhang, Gao Moumou, Tubo, and Yangde were. They had actually managed to push their way into this movie that the worldwide-famous Director Jacob directed during the summer vacation!

Then, as for that crowd of relatives, the messages they sent over were even more diverse.

For example, there was this Song Shouxing 1 , who was the elder brother of Shuhang’s paternal great-grandfather. Shuhang’s paternal great-grandfather had passed away a long time ago, but this Song Shouxing still had keen ears and sharp eyes, and he could even use the computer and the mobile phone.

But due to his advanced age, Song Shouxing had an anachronistic way of thinking.

[Shuhang! I heard you went to shoot a movie? Listen to my advice, don’t become an actor. Study well and repay the kindness of our motherland!]

I know, know! Prosperity, equality, fairness, lawfulness, patriotism, professionalism, honesty, friendliness, democracy, civilization, kindness, blah, blah, blah!

[Shuhang, remember to bring several girls back home 😊. In addition, during the afternoon nap today, your father was still thinking about your movie and started laughing. That laughter was too creepy and scared me to death.]

Ma, didn’t you say that you wanted to cut off our mother-son relationship the last time?

[Shuhang, which girl is your girlfriend? Quietly tell your father. That way, your mother and I can be prepared for when you come back. In addition, let me share something with you. During the afternoon nap today, your mother was still thinking about your movie and suddenly started laughing. That laughter was too creepy and scared me to death.]

Pa, I’m going to forward this very same message to mother!

[Elder Brother Shuhang, today, I almost got beaten up. My classmates asked me if Senior Brother Gao Sheng was my elder brother, which gave me a scare. Luckily, I was smart enough to deny, escaping the calamity.]

This was a message from Shuhang’s younger cousin, that ungrateful brat. Shuhang really lost money when buying him food and games year after year. While facing disaster, the other party didn’t even recognize his cousin!

After a while, when he finished reading all the messages, Song Shuhang faintly sighed.

Su Clan’s Sixteen covered her mouth and gently laughed. She was standing next to Song Shuhang and could see the several messages displayed on the screen of his phone. Although she had read only a few of them, she could easily imagine the content of the others.

“I might just go into secluded meditation until the screening of the movie,” Song Shuhang said in a grave tone. He was afraid that someone would put a gunnysack on his head and beat him up if he were to walk around in the streets.

And he wasn’t even exaggerating!

Under the influence of Venerable White’s charm, the line of people that wanted to beat him could go from Beijing to Kunming, crossing the entirety of China!

❄️❄️❄️

With True Monarch Yellow Mountain fanning the flames from behind the scenes, the trailer of the movie had spread everywhere, becoming part of the everyday life of Chinese people.

Then, one had to keep in mind that the quality of the trailer was superb, with the male actors being all handsome and the female ones beautiful, and let’s not talk about the special effects, which were just amazing.

After the launch of the trailer, everyone got a favorable impression of the movie. As long as the real movie was half as amazing as it appeared in the trailer… no, even one-third or one-fifth as good, it would be worth it to buy the ticket to see it!

Thereupon, many people felt their hearts and wallets were ready to get into action. They felt this movie was really worth seeing!

But under these circumstances where everyone had a good impression of the movie, some people couldn’t stand it anymore…
