Reminded by Lu Shengming, Cheng Xiaofan immediately recalled that the other party had once sent him a text message introducing this so-called Jianghu forum.
However, at that time, Cheng Xiaofan had not paid any attention to such matters and had never opened the Jianghu forum even once.
Now, upon hearing Lu Shengming's words, Cheng Xiaofan immediately hung up the phone and searched for that message on his mobile.
Following the address in the message, he immediately opened the Jianghu forum.
This Jianghu forum had over a dozen sections, with "Jianghu Life" and "Who is the Champion" being the most popular.
Cheng Xiaofan opened the "Jianghu Life" section.
Immediately, several red-posted and pinned threads caught his eye.
The red-posted and pinned threads were: "Miracle, Dragon Qi Appears in Nanshan Lake of Zhuxi Village!"
"Mutated Dragon Fish Appear in Nanshan Lake, Seized by Local Village Bully!"
"Outrageous, Village Bully Cheng Xiaofan Extorts Billions from Cultivators with Brutal Force!"
"Latest News, Hidden Wealthy Families from All Over the Country Are Sending People to Nanshan Lake Under the Guise of Fishing Enthusiasts to Obtain Dragon Qi!"
Reading these posts, Cheng Xiaofan felt both angry and happy.
He was angry about when he had extorted billions from cultivators.
He had only received seventy million in total, less than one hundred million!
Besides, how could it be called extortion? It was clearly compensation willingly paid by others. If you damaged someone's property, shouldn't you compensate them?
Cheng Xiaofan wished he could find the poster directly and demand compensation for his reputation, at least several hundred million.
Er... this debt has been noted.
Fortunately, there were also some posts that made Cheng Xiaofan very happy.
For instance, the news that hidden wealthy families were sending people to Nanshan Lake to fish for Dragon Qi was great news.
Hidden wealthy families were never short of money. Since they were coming here to fish, he would "slaughter" them well.
He would not show any mercy in extorting and blackmailing!
Zhuxi Village was going to get rich this time.
Next, Cheng Xiaofan opened the "Who is the Champion" section.
Immediately, he spotted a red-posted and pinned thread: Shocking! Wu Chengli, the Young Master of a Hidden Wealthy Family in Jiangcheng, Beaten Blind by a Country Bumpkin Village Bully While Seeking Dragon Qi!
This post had been up for less than half an hour, and the likes alone had exceeded ten thousand.
Opening the post, Cheng Xiaofan found that the content was not much different from what had happened on the lake island, and it was accompanied by several pictures.
Cheng Xiaofan remembered that when he was dealing with Wu Chengli, someone nearby was taking pictures of him with their phone.
He had not stopped them from filming at the time.
He hadn't expected it to be posted on the Jianghu forum so quickly.
Looking at the replies below, there were all sorts of people.
"Sweat, Young Master Wu is finished, his eyes were actually ruined by a country bumpkin!"
"Young Master Wu is my male god, my heart is broken seeing this post!"
"The martial world will no longer be exciting with the absence of Young Master Wu!"
"Without Young Master Wu, I believe Zhuxi Village will soon lose a village bully!"
"That's right, the Wu family will definitely not let that village bully Cheng Xiaofan off. The Wu family might even flatten Zhuxi Village!"
"Happy! I never thought the arrogant Young Master Wu would be brought so low!"
"With the Wu family member crippled, many beautiful women in Jiangcheng will no longer be harmed!"
Following these replies, Cheng Xiaofan was surprised to find that not a single member of the Wu family had spoken up.
Skipping over this post, Cheng Xiaofan found that Long Xiaotian and his grandson had jointly posted a thread, titled: Whoever dares to insult my Master Cheng Xiaofan is declaring war on the Long Family, a Hidden Wealthy Family from the North!
The replies below were also varied.
"Wow, I didn't expect that village bully from Zhuxi Village to be the master of a hidden wealthy family's helmsman from the North!"
"Haha, Wu Chengli, Fang Peng, Tong Dana, and the others were beaten in vain. With their strength, they couldn't possibly contend with Long Xiaotian and his grandson!"
"Who exactly is this Cheng Xiaofan? How could he become the master of Long Xiaotian and his grandson?"
"No wonder Cheng Xiaofan has the audacity to be arrogant. He's actually the master of a hidden wealthy family's helmsman!"
"My God, I remember now! Isn't this Cheng Xiaofan the internet celebrity who has been very popular in recent livestreams?"
"Ah, I remember too! I saw him in a video riding an eagle, flying over a primeval forest, and catching fish at White Python Lake!"
"So they are the same person!"
There were also scolding remarks in the replies.
"Hmph, what are Long Xiaotian and his grandson? I'm cursing Cheng Xiaofan, and I'm declaring war on you. What can you do about it?"
"There are always people better than you, and heavens beyond the heavens. Is Cheng Xiaofan really that formidable?"
Cheng Xiaofan couldn't help but shake his head and sigh, "A white cat boasts its power, and a black cat takes the blame!"
However, he did think that he had indeed offended quite a few people today. There was no other way; Nanshan Lake was developed based on his suggestion.
For the sake of Zhuxi Village's interests, he had to step forward and defend Nanshan Lake.
Furthermore, the Dragon Qi hidden in the underground river of Nanshan Lake had already been claimed by Cheng Xiaofan as his own. How could he let others snatch it away so easily?
After browsing the entire forum, more people were discussing the Dragon Qi issue in Nanshan Lake.
Especially the appearance of the Dragon Fish, which led everyone in the Jianghu community to unanimously believe that ordinary fish had been infused with Dragon Qi, causing them to mutate.
However, they had no idea that these fish originally belonged to White Python Lake, and it was Cheng Xiaofan who intentionally cultivated them to cause the mutation.
After a round on the Jianghu forum, he simply registered and posted a thread under his real name.
The title was: A Letter to Friends in the Cultivation World.
The content informed everyone about the rules for fishing at Nanshan Lake and the price per jin of fish.
Shortly after the post went up, the replies were met with a wave of mockery.
"Ten thousand yuan per jin of fish, my God, I want to ask if eating this fish will grant immortality. Where in this world can you find fish at such a price?"
"Are you out of your mind, Cheng Xiaofan? Why don't you go rob people on the street!"
"I was thinking if Cheng Xiaofan's illness hasn't been cured yet, and he escaped from the madhouse?"
"Are the price control authorities on the forum? Can't you just stand by and do nothing?"
"Forget it, I was planning to go fishing at Nanshan Lake tomorrow, but it seems I have to give up on that idea. I really can't afford such exorbitantly priced fish!"
"I've decided not to go to Nanshan Lake!"
"Let's all not go, and let the black-hearted little farmer cry!"
Looking at the replies below, Cheng Xiaofan smiled slightly and thought to himself, those who urge others not to come to Nanshan Lake must be the ones who want to come the most.
I, Cheng Xiaofan, am like Jiang Ziya fishing; come if you will, and bite if you are willing!
