How to Bring Common Sense to Xianxia World - Chapter 214: Myth Buster Cultivator Version-01

Wei Chen nodded, and a mysterious smile formed on his lips. He knew who did it, but this was not the time to reveal it.

“That was a reasonable explanation, but let’s leave it at that for now. You two should check the question list first. Just strike out any questions you don’t want to answer and give it back to me. I need to prepare a script,” Wei Chen said, returning to the topic.

At this time, the tea arrived, and the three stopped talking about serious matters and began chatting about the broadcast and how it would proceed.

Wei Chen explained everything and gave the draft script he had created on the spot. The two read it and agreed to the script and to what they would do when they were on site.

Yes, for this broadcast, Wei Chen decided to take the two on a trip to the site where the explosion started!

— A Few Days Later —

At the bustling squares and city centers across the cities and sects of the three provinces, a colossal spiritual screen suddenly appeared in the sky above, drawing the attention of the people below.

“Oh? I haven’t seen this screen for a long time. And here I thought those funny broadcasts were only reserved for the wealthy who could afford a U-Phone,” one owner of a wonton stall near the square said with a smile.

“Of course. Why would Mr. Wei need to do it for free? This is a public broadcast. Even after he gained fame, the fact that he still does this for free is already worthy of praise,” one of the bystanders added.

“I wonder what this broadcast is about. I hope it’s about some undiscovered secret realm. If that’s the case, maybe my bottleneck will finally be resolved.”

“Are you an idiot? If it were about a secret realm, do you think you’d have enough strength to compete with those big shots in the sects? Don’t forget, this is a public broadcast!” another cultivator chimed in.

At this time, an old, wise-looking cultivator stroked his cotton-white long beard.

“I think this should be about the recent massacre at the Heaven’s Spire Sanctuary. As I watch his broadcasts on the U-Phone, I’ve noticed that he usually covers topics that are gaining attention from the jianghu.”

While the crowd continued speculating about the topic of the broadcast, the screen opened with a familiar introduction.

Wei Chen stood on a flying ark, with a vast desolate landscape behind him. The colossal crater on the earth looked as though a god had scooped up the land and made it vanish.

He looked toward the screen, as if gazing directly at the viewers behind it.

“Hello, what’s up, brothers and sisters? Long time no see. I am your host, Wei Chen.” He gave a casual two-finger salute toward the screen.

“The Vagabond.” The screen shifted to show Wei Chen riding Max, who was carrying luggage and goods from foreign lands. Its face looked deadpan as it gazed at the bone Wei Chen hung in front of it.

“The Traveler.” The scene changed to Wei Chen marveling at a large sect built atop a high mountain.

“And most importantly, the adventurer and seeker of truth!” This time, the screen showed Wei Chen delving into ruins. The place was desolate and dark, and a group of bats suddenly flew out, making Wei Chen scream and throw the torch in his hand away, drawing laughter from the people watching the opening scene.

At the Thousand Treasure Pavilion headquarters, Yan Rongjun was sitting in the lounge, accompanied by Mo Xingyao. As an executive of a multimillion conglomerate, she had to take care of her VIP guest, even if that person had gone out to do the broadcast.

Yan Rongjun sipped a glass of iced coffee brewed for her by a barista trained by Wei Chen. As for Mo Xingyao, she preferred lattes over the strong coffee that Yan Rongjun was drinking.

“Hahaha, I heard he’s quite good at making videos like this. Today I must watch the live broadcast and see if this guy is as good as my sister told me,” Yan Rongjun said as she enjoyed the coffee in her hand.

“Lady Yan, if you require anything, you may tell the servants, or better yet, you can tell me directly and I will arrange everything for you,” Mo Xingyao said with an ingratiating smile.

“Hahaha, cut the formality. You don’t need to show that kind of smile to me, Yaoyao. I would not treat that guy’s wife badly. He’s my husband’s greatest employee, after all!” Yan Rongjun said with a laugh.

“Employee?” Mo Xingyao repeated in confusion.

“Ahhh, I… I mean… disciple! He’s my husband’s direct disciple. Yes, that’s right!” Yan Rongjun quickly corrected herself. She had nearly let the cat out of the bag to this man’s wife.

She didn’t know how this girl would react if she found out that Wei Chen was just her husband’s employee.

Even though he was a most valuable employee of the underworld, an employee was still an employee. Mortals in this world would often look down on them because the title was not as respected as that of a direct disciple.

On the screen above, Wei Chen continued his broadcast.

“Everyone who follows Jianghu news must have already heard about the annihilation of the Heaven’s Spire Sanctuary, right?”

“A lot of people said that this happened because a guy without enough strength snuck in and destroyed the core array that sustained the secret realm containing the sect. As a result, the explosion destroyed the entire sect, along with innocent bystanders and the city around the secret realm, vanishing out of thin air!”

“But!” Wei Chen raised his index finger with a smile, signaling everyone to think about it.

“Was that really the case?”

At this time, everyone watching the broadcast began to follow Wei Chen’s line of thinking.

“If that’s not the case, then what is? Is this guy saying that someone with enough strength deliberately did this? Who would be such a jerk?” one cultivator eating wontons blurted out as he munched on his food, clearly enjoying it.

“If it was a demonic cultivator, maybe there really is such a jerk,” another cultivator added.

At this moment, a fierce man dressed in black spoke up, pointing his finger at the one who had just spoken.

“Hey! What are you saying? We have our integrity too! We wouldn’t resort to such a lowly thing! You, on the other hand, are all hypocrites. Who knows, the one who did it might be from your righteous sect, trying to throw mud at us?” The man, clearly from the demonic path, spoke with a grating tone.

“You! Do you want to die!?”

This scene was happening in many places, especially in Thousand Treasure City, where the righteous path and demonic path mingled. At most, they could only engage in verbal clashes, as the enforcers in this city were merciless.

The broadcast continued.

“Let’s find out, shall we?” Wei Chen said with the kind of charisma unique to him in this broadcasting industry before continuing.

“But before we begin, today I am with two honored guests: Vice Sect Leader Jian Heng of the Heavenly Sword Sect, and my good brother Yun Feng!” Wei Chen introduced the two guests as they stepped into the screen from the side.

“I am Jian Heng. You already know me. Nice to meet all of you,” Jian Heng said with a calm and composed air as he cupped his fists in salute to the audience.

“Hello, everyone! I’m Yun Feng, or the Edgelord from the provincial martial exchange competition!”

Outside the screen, those who had watched the competition back then cheered loudly.

“Edgelord!” “Edgelord!” “Edgelord!” “Edgelord!” “Edgelord!” “Edgelord!”

It was as if Yun Feng inside the screen could hear them.

“Ah! How could I forget? I forgot to open the chat window!” With that said, Wei Chen snapped his fingers, and the chat window function appeared on the screen, allowing those who owned a U-Phone to interact with him during the broadcast.

“Edgelord!” “Edgelord!” “Edgelord!” “Edgelord!” “Edgelord!” “Edgelord!” “Edgelord!”

“Edgelord!” “Edgelord!” “Edgelord!” “Edgelord!” “Edgelord!” “Edgelord!” “Edgelord!”

At this time, comments shouting “Edgelord” with excitement flooded the chat box. Seeing this, Wei Chen quickly commanded the broadcast orb to ban the spam messages.

Handsome Tall and Rich: [What!? Why can’t I type ___!]

Little Wealthy Demon: [Ugh… Stop flooding the chat box, you idiot!]

Invincible_General: [Hahaha! This is funny. I chatted with my sister Youqi a few times, but she was just stuck up. This is way more fun!]

Handsome Tall and Rich: [Huh? You know Ms. Youqi? Do you know how to contact her?]

Invincible_General: [It’s easy. You just need to die, and you’ll see her.]

Handsome Tall and Rich: [Ahahaha, you’re funny.]

Wei Chen watched the chat box and could not help but sweat, but he quickly brushed it off and continued with the broadcast.
