Chapter 452: Chapter 451: The Story of The Boy Who Cried Wolf

"The gap between the Hopeful People and the Micro-citizens, if truly so vast, would only relegate the Micro-citizens to slavery serving the Hopeful People. Then we might as well move to the Demon Country!"

It seemed quite normal at first, but once one recalled the previous rumors about the Demon Country, the issue seemed enormous.

The expression on Lu Zixun’s face fluctuated as he read the comments below.

"Bad-mouthing our simple and honest Demon Country again? Can’t you act like a decent person?"

"Stop whitewashing the Demon Country. I’d rather be a Micro-citizen than go to the Demon Country and become their food."

"Oh wow, here comes the whitewashing again. Why not start by explaining that half-human, half-demon thing that appeared last time?"

"At least Micro-citizens are still human. In the Crimson Land, power is respected, and there’s nothing wrong with that. But if you go to the Demon Country, you might not even qualify as human. Think carefully, oh."

Just when he saw a few people speaking up for the Demon Country, Lu Zixun didn’t even have time to like their comments before they were drowned out by the army of trolls.

Sure enough, there are idiots everywhere, a truth Lu Zixun had come to profoundly understand...

He didn’t even need to guess to know whose handiwork this post about the Demon Country was.

Besides Zhenfei, no one else had so much idle time.

Last time, the Demon Country used the issue of the Hopeful People and the Micro-citizens to successfully tie down Zhenfei.

It was only logical that this time, Zhenfei’s comeback would be met with retaliation.

Except... Lu Zixun’s face settled into calmness, squinting as he regarded the post.

It didn’t seem like such a big problem after all; it appeared there was some room to maneuver.

"Brother Xun, have you seen the post on the Night Language Forum?"

"I have."

As Ge Changming hurried over, Lu Zixun yawned and asked, "Has Zhenfei’s vengeful tactic got a solution?"

"Zhenfei wants to thoroughly tarnish the Demon Country’s reputation. I think we should prove otherwise."

After pausing, Ge Changming continued, "Prove that our Demon Country isn’t as bad as they say!"

Lu Zixun nodded thoughtfully but didn’t express any opinion.

Ge Changming’s intention wasn’t wrong, but he overlooked the fact that people only want to see what they’ve already seen. No matter how the Demon Country tried to prove itself now, even if it seemed very real, it would be dismissed with one word.

Pretense.

"The battle for supremacy is about to begin. At this point, the big stir Zhenfei has caused is undoubtedly giving humanity a point to vent."

The corners of Lu Zixun’s mouth rose slightly, "Do you think the Demon Country’s proof really matters at this time?"

"This..."

A troubled expression appeared on Ge Changming’s face, and he sighed, "We should do something, anyway. It’s a lot better than doing nothing at all."

"The more you do, the more mistakes you make. If you do nothing, you make no mistakes."

Stretching, Lu Zixun leisurely said, "Indeed, doing nothing might be better for now. After all, they need a place to vent, and the Demon Country is just that outlet."

Hearing this, anger spread across Ge Changming’s face, and he clenched his fists, "I can’t stand this. It was Zhenfei’s Human Ghost causing trouble, why should the Demon Country take the blame?"

As soon as these words fell, Ge Changming saw Lu Zixun looking at him with amusement, and he felt confused.

He subconsciously raised his hand to touch his face; he had washed it today...

"Bro... Brother Xun..."

Licking his lips, Ge Changming asked Lu Zixun, "Why are you looking at me like that?"

"To suppress public opinion, throw out a piece of more explosive information."

Lu Zixun’s beard twitched as he narrowed his eyes and said, "What do you think would happen if it were revealed that Shiqian was created by Zhenfei?"

Ge Changming was stumped. He hadn’t thought of this at all.

Lu Zixun continued, "The boy who cried wolf can’t be played many times. I still have the video of me fighting Shiqian. It’s reserved for situations like this."

"Brother Xun, I understand."

Ge Changming took a deep breath, a small smile appearing on his face, "I’ll get ready to expose this matter."

Lu Zixun had recorded the fight against Shiqian after realizing that the creature could act independently, intending to use it as learning material for the Demon Country’s warriors. Now it was coming in handy.

"Hmm, go and ask the kitchen why my fish hasn’t arrived yet."

Licking the tip of his nose, Lu Zixun reminded him, "Coordinate with Lai Fan to prepare the data thoroughly; let the matter ferment before acting."

The more fiercely these people cursed now, the harder the face-slap would be when the truth was hammered home.

"Had I not been born a keyboard warrior, the path of spray would be like an eternal night. The keyboard strikes!"

At this moment, Xiong Kang called.

Lu Zixun answered, only to hear Xiong Kang roar such a line.

It seemed that Xiong Kang was already aware of the big commotion on the Night Language Forum regarding the Demon Country.

But still, to hear such flamboyant words from Xiong Kang’s mouth couldn’t help but make Lu Zixun smile.

"This matter must be dealt with by the Demon Country, or there’ll be big problems later. I’ll report the matter with Shiqian, okay?"

After laughing a few times, Lu Zixun asked seriously.

Xiong Kang was calling exactly for this reason.

"You can talk about the Human Ghost incident, but don’t use the Human Ghost’s name."

After a pause, Xiong Kang chuckled with relief, "After all, he was once under Sha Fei."

Hearing this, Lu Zixun nodded understandingly. It was fair enough to keep that detail hidden as it wouldn’t make much difference.

"So, can you tell me why the Crimson Academy that previously only required a month of study now necessitates a year?"

Lu Zixun grinned on the video, and a chill ran down Xiong Kang’s spine. With a sheepish smile, he looked around, "Ah, the signal seems poor; gotta hang up now. We’ll chat later."

Lu Zixun, who hadn’t expected Xiong Kang to move so quickly, twitched at the corner of his mouth.

He tried to redial, but the call went through to just ringing with no response, probably because it was turned off.

In a week, they were to enter Trial Land.

Xiong Kang would be dealt with then.

But before that, Lu Zixun asked, "Ling, how much longer until the Star Network is deployed within the Demon Clan?"

The Demon Country had always used the Star Network of Human Gathering Places, which worked fine, but lag issues could occur.

It might not be too critical in normal times, but during sudden war outbreaks, such lag could be deadly.

Ling had already prioritized the Star Network in planning thanks to Lu Zixun’s foresight.

After Lu Zixun inquired, Ling replied, "Lord Xun, at most three days, and the setup will be complete."

"Hmm."

Lu Zixun nodded, his eyes narrowing.

Perhaps the self-established Star Network could be used for other actions...
