Chapter 130 - Free Publicity? Now That’s What I Call a Bargain

Wukong glanced at the reactions around him, clearly quite satisfied.

What he needed now was momentum — to expand his prestige and build a force of his own.

Slowly, he spoke."This Wuxianliu is a sect I founded long ago. Its numbers are already considerable."

"In terms of status, it's enough to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with an emperor. And now I kill one person and you all think you get to speculate and judge?"

He looked away with a disdainful smile — but when he caught Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong's gazes, he winked at them.

The two girls immediately understood. Wukong always had a reason for everything he did.

As for him looking down on the emperor? Zhu Zhuqing didn't even flinch. With the kind of realm Wukong had reached, how could he possibly look up to a mortal king?

"Scram. If you want to issue a wanted order, hurry up. I still need you lot to help gather some attention…"

Zhao Wuji froze.Wukong was about to let everyone walk out? He grew anxious.

"Little Sun, you can't let them go!"

"I don't know when you founded your sect, nor do I know how strong it is."

"But what you just said — if Snow Night Emperor hears even a fraction of that, that's enough to get you executed!"

"You just killed someone. If it were only the regular patrol squads, that wouldn't be a big issue. But those words you said? That's enough to make the provincial-level law enforcement move against you." Zhao Wuji clenched his fists, visibly worried.

As someone who had once been hunted down himself, he knew all too well what this meant.

Wukong scratched his head, annoyed."That old fossil Snow Night? He's nothing. I need to expand my sect. Him issuing a wanted order? That's free exposure."

"Aiya, Teacher Zhao, relax." He patted Zhao Wuji's broad shoulder, looking like a man who had everything under control.

"I won't drag Shrek Academy into this. And that guy earlier… he provoked me alone. It had nothing to do with anyone else."

"Let them go…"

Wukong really wanted these people to hurry up and report him. Zhao Wuji stopping them was making things inconvenient.

"This… fine. Since you've decided, I'll listen to you." Zhao Wuji sighed and didn't bother with the onlookers anymore. He simply walked to a table, leaned his hands on it, and sat down — still fuming a little.

Probably annoyed.

"Thanks." Wukong grinned at his back.

With a grand wave, he let all the unrelated people choose whether to leave or stay — business as usual.

"Boss, hurry and get someone to clean up. Eating while smelling blood is awful…" Wukong pinched his nose. He really should've thrown that corpse outside before blasting it.

The restaurant owner had been frozen with shock. Only after Wukong called a few more times did he snap back to reality.

Soon, workers rushed over to wipe the blood and bits of flesh. Definitely not something the average person could handle.

The students from Canghui Academy scattered immediately — clearly running to fetch reinforcements.

I grabbed Zhu Zhuqing's hand and casually found a table to sit. Time to wait for the food.

Behind us, Ning Rongrong puffed her cheeks."Hmph. You only ever think about your Zhuqing. Am I worse than her somehow?"

In her own mind? Definitely not. Ning Rongrong had looks, talent, and background — she didn't feel inferior in any aspect.

"Sun Wukong." Dai Mubai sat down with a face full of pent-up complaints.

"What?" Wukong raised an eyebrow. Normally this guy didn't talk to him — why today?

"That person earlier… he only went too far with his words. A beating would've been enough. You didn't need to kill him." Dai Mubai frowned. The killing left a sour feeling in his chest — mostly disgust.

Wukong shook his head with a smile.He and Dai Mubai were born incompatible. Add Zhu Zhuqing into the mix, and they were never going to be on the same wavelength.

"He pointed at your nose and cursed you. How much contempt does he think you deserve?"

"I'm not like someone who's a coward. Whoever dares to step on my head — I make them pay." Wukong's eyes turned cold.

The pressure rolled off him in waves, making Dai Mubai tremble.

Dai Mubai wasn't stupid. He knew Wukong was scolding him on purpose.

"…Arrogant to the extreme. Not worth befriending." Tang San and Xiao Wu also sat down and muttered.

Decisive killing, ruthless, self-centered.

If Wukong heard that? He'd smack Tang San on the spot.

What do you mean ruthless and self-centered? At least pick accurate insults!

Ning Rongrong ignored all of that. She strutted over on her little heels, pulled out a chair, and sat beside Wukong.

She signaled to Zhu Zhuqing and Wukong with her fingers — and both leaned closer.

Keeping her voice soft, she asked,"Wukong, what's the story behind this Wuxianliu?"

Wukong blinked.Ah, so that's what she wanted.

Still fiddling with Zhu Zhuqing's fingers, he replied,"I need to quickly build up my own force. Wuxianliu is the name of the sect I plan to establish."

Ning Rongrong widened her eyes. A kid this young wanting to establish a sect — this was her first time hearing something so outrageous.

"Do you need funding? If you do, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect can sponsor you for free." she offered sweetly.

For Wukong, she'd gladly empty her piggy bank.

Wukong felt warm inside. Looks like this little disciple wasn't a freeloader after all. But he already had more money than he could ever spend — that purple-gold card from Spirit Hall was enough for several lifetimes.

Five hundred million gold soul coins.Yeah. Spirit Hall was absurd.

"Thanks, little princess, but I don't need money anymore. What I need now is influence. If you want to help, you can use your sect's power to publicize Wuxianliu."

Wukong was thrilled.Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect doing free promotion? Who wouldn't want that?

And with Ning Rongrong being his disciple, Ning Fengzhi definitely wouldn't refuse.

"Hehe, no problem! When the academy's on break, I'll go home and talk to my father." Ning Rongrong said sweetly, resting her cheek on her palm.

Finally, a way she could help Wukong.

"What about killing that guy? You really plan to just leave it like that?" Zhu Zhuqing asked calmly. With Wukong's strength, he had no reason to fear the wanted order — but it was still a nuisance.

Wukong patted her little hand."It's fine. Let them post the wanted posters."

"I'll be completely fine. You can trust me."

"Mm. I believe you." Zhu Zhuqing nodded.

If anyone believed in Wukong, she was definitely one of them.

Going back to Spirit City in a few days — what could a Heaven Dou Empire wanted order do? Post it on Spirit Hall's gates?

And Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing?One was the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's little princess.The other was the Star Luo Empire's cherished jewel.

Heaven Dou Empire had no authority to touch either of them.
