The Legend of the Sword and Fairy 1 had been on sale for five days. All the bookstores in Chang 'an had sold nearly 8000 copies for the first time. In these days, they had also sold out one after another.
To the surprise of the shopkeepers of these bookstores and bookstores, there were actually quite a number of Confucian scholars from the Imperial College who were acting mysteriously and sneakily like thieves. When they paid the bill, they even covered their faces with their hands, afraid that others would know their true identities.
The scene in front of them made the shopkeepers of these bookstores and bookstores look curious. After all, previously, because Li Er had singled out and praised the Legend of the White Snake, it had directly caused many Confucian scholars in the directorate to be unhappy. They had even directly launched a poetry contest in the Green Jade Hall. The grudge between the two sides was not small. Now, these Confucian scholars were buying the new novel of the Wandering Know-it-all? Something was wrong. It was their turn to improve their relationship?!
Originally, many people didn't have a good impression of Li Xiaoyao, the main character of the Legend of the Sword and Fairy 1. However, after reading the later part of the story, the male readers quickly fell in love with him. For example, the three Cheng brothers and other martial arts disciples quickly changed their views and became new fans.
Of course, there were also some old pedants who couldn't help but criticize Wandering Know-it-all's new book after reading it. They criticized Wandering Know-it-all's new book as insulting, dirty, and harmful to Chang 'an's literati. They even called for readers to boycott the Legend of Sword and Fairy 1.
However, these old-fashioned old pedants soon realized that they were wrong. Almost all the male readers were on the side of the Legend of the Sword and Fairy, especially the three Cheng brothers. They were so domineering that they didn't care about the old pedants 'faces at all. Some of them even went to the old pedants' residences and started to scold them loudly.
"What are you old things jumping up and down there for? We readers didn't say anything. What does it have to do with you?!”
"What insult? How could the matters of a scholar be called insulting? This novel is so well-written, easy to understand, and refreshing. If you continue to spout nonsense here, be careful not to get beaten up…"
The few old pedants who were warned couldn't help but lament that the world was getting worse and worse. However, their words didn't affect the spread of the Legend of the Sword and Fairy. Some wonderful things couldn't be buried so easily by a few words.
Within five days, the book that Zhao Chen had asked the Qianji Sect to print had almost been sold out by all the bookstores. While these shopkeepers were making a lot of money, they were also worried because they would run out of stock after they were sold out. They used the Spiritual Paper Cranes to inform Wandering Know-it-all. However, these messages were like stones sinking into the ocean. There was no reply at all, which made them anxious.
In the Fantasy True Pavilion, Elder Deng looked anxious. Zhao Chen had only given him ten jade slips, and the Legend of the White Snake was only halfway through its broadcast. He had no more updates, but there was still no news from Zhao Chen. He hadn't seen him for nearly five days. If this continued, he would stop updating today.
"Sigh…what should we do?”
Elder Deng sighed with a headache. Zhao Chen had gone into seclusion without any hesitation. He had left all the stalls to Elder Deng. However, he had not come back yet. More importantly, all the bookstores had sent letters with paper cranes, saying that the Legend of the Sword and Fairy 1 had been sold out and that they were in urgent need of new books.
Elder Deng saw this and was anxious. It would be very awkward if Zhao Chen and the person who had gone out with him had not returned.
At the same time, while many people in Chang 'an were thinking about Zhao Chen's whereabouts, in a desolate valley not far from Chang' an, a visible spiritual cyclone appeared in the air. It was like a tornado or an hourglass, tearing the surrounding Spiritual Qi and pouring it into a small mountain below.
The strange phenomenon in front of him was very clear. Even if it was dozens of miles away, one could see it. There was an additional dark cloud in the sky, emitting a suppressive aura.
Such an eye-catching phenomenon caused all the demons and ghosts within a radius of a hundred miles to quickly react. The dense spiritual qi vortex fluctuation was obviously different from the others. It was clearly as if some treasure had been born!!
This caused the nearby demons and ghosts to become excited. They rode all kinds of demonic winds and whistled over. In a short while, they accurately locked onto their destination and surrounded it.
In the small cave that was blocked by two large rocks that were as tall as a person, Zhao Chen's eyes were slightly closed. He was in a half-awake state. A spiritual light sank deep into his body, spontaneously swallowing and exhaling the spiritual energy that was falling like an hourglass.
At this moment, Zhao Chen was already in a critical state. Whether he succeeded or not was at stake. However, he did not expect that he would cause such a huge commotion when he consumed the spirit pill to break through.
