Zhang Guangmu has witnessed too many swordsmen's persistence in fame.
But their pursuit of profit seems to be lacking in flavor.
After tearing up Boss Cao's script, Zhang Guangmu found that without the director, the assistants on the set were a little restless and couldn't let go, so he decided to push the plot himself.
so……
That's right! It was Zhang Guangmu who personally concocted the rumors of "Red Lotus Sword Technique" and "Sword Immortal".
Because the description of "Red Lotus Sword Technique" in the rumors was somewhat outrageous, and the claims that "the position of the Sword Emperor is easily available" and "immortality", most people didn't believe it when it first started to spread.
These rumors have seriously impacted people's inherent views. After many people read it, they directly regarded it as fake news compiled by unscrupulous marketing accounts to gain traffic and gain popularity without even thinking about it.
Zhang Guangmu was not surprised.
He had already arranged his back-up plan.
At first, not many people took the "Red Lotus Sword Technique" rumor seriously. A few days later, because of the Ghost Sword Sect's announcement, it suddenly attracted the attention of major sword sects and netizens.
After a press conference, Ghost Sword Sect leader Li He and [Netherworld Star] Shi Jianyu jokingly told reporters a bizarre story that was too absurd to be believed.
——Feihong Sect and Ghost Sword Sect have been brother sects since ancient times. The two sects share the same spirit and are as close as one family.
In recent days, in order to enhance their relationship, the two factions conducted a new era team building and swordsmanship exchange activities.
Under the eager invitation of the elders and leaders of the Ghost Sword Sect, Mad Lord Zhang Guangmu could not refuse the warm invitation. Accompanied by his host, he went to visit the forbidden areas of the Ghost Sword Sect.
During this trip, Zhang Guangmu discovered the two Sword Emperors Styx and Burial Sea hidden in the [Life Forbidden Zone].
Three hundred years of time have caused the physical bodies of the two Sword Emperors to decay and decay, but their souls are attached to the spiritual swords and have survived until modern times.
Originally, Feihong and the Ghost Sword Sect treated these seniors with great respect, but they never expected that these two old men, Styx He and Zhanhai, had ulterior motives and wanted to seize their descendants and live a new life!
When the leaders of the two factions, Chu Fan and Li Fen, were in a critical juncture, Zhang Guangmu took action in time and activated the "Red Lotus Sword Technique" with [Phantom Sword], easily killing the remnants of the Styx Sword Emperor and the Sea Burial Sword Emperor.
soul.
How to tell this story...
It's quite bizarre.
If Li and Shi Jianyu, who were telling the story, had not been of extremely high social status, just by looking at their solemn expressions, they would have been labeled "madmen" immediately.
Two old monsters from three hundred years ago are hiding in the forbidden area of the Ghost Sword Sect. They have been living until now, and they still want to take the bodies of their descendants and live another life.
Listen!
What kind of drunkenness does it take to make up such a joke?
The problem is...
There were more than one or two people who witnessed this incident.
Many elders and elite disciples of the Ghost Sword Sect can come forward to testify.
When telling this story, Li still acted like a boss, but his attitude was humble and he fully expressed his gratitude to Zhang Guangmu.
[Netherworld Star] Shi Jianyu doesn't need to think so much, he doesn't hide anything at all. The whole process and various details of the trip to the forbidden land are described extremely well. Every time he speaks, he speaks to Zhang Guangmu.
His admiration and awe are beyond words and cannot be hidden.
As we all know, the Styx Sword Emperor is the founder and number one grandmaster of the Ghost Sword Sect!
In this outrageous story, the bosses of the Ghost Sword Sect did not leave any fig leaf for their ancestors.
so……
It still seems to have some credibility.
According to well-informed industry insiders, there are ten direct disciples of the Ghost Sword Sect. They were deeply shocked after witnessing Zhang Guangmu’s miraculous swordsmanship in the forbidden area. After repeated questioning, they found out the name of the swordsmanship.
"red lotus".
These elites of the Ghost Sword Sect were obsessed with the mystery of swordsmanship and couldn't help themselves. They all made up their minds to reproduce Zhang Guangmu's inhuman swordsmanship.
They cut off all human relations that day, immediately closed the door to death, and declared to the outside world that they "swore to sword like a mad king", with an attitude of success or failure.
Because the Ghost Sword Sect is Fei Hong's brother sect, Zhang Guangmu himself is broad-minded, so he doesn't care about it. He has no intention of hiding anything for himself, and even took the initiative to teach the ten direct descendants of the Ghost Sword Sect some moves.
The story told by Li He [Netherworld Star] Shi Jianyu is a bit informative.
The remaining souls of Burial Sea and Styx who survived three centuries ago...
Inheritance trap, taking over one's body and reviving one's life...
Red Lotus Sword Technique instantly kills two Sword Emperors...
Even if the credibility of this story is only 10%, it is enough to explain a lot of problems!
You can tell autumn by looking at a leaf, and the attitude of the Ghost Sword Sect just proves how terrifying Zhang Guangmu's strength is.
Many swordsmanship enthusiasts maliciously speculated that the Ghost Sword Sect was crushed from top to bottom by the Feihong Sect, so that they could be so obedient and sensible, and Zhang Guangmu felt comfortable licking them.
However, such groundless speculation was quickly submerged in the tide of public opinion without even causing a splash.
Are you kidding me?
After all, the Ghost Sword Sect is also one of the top twenty sects in the top swordsmanship alliance. It has a long history and profound foundation. Even if it loses to the Sword Emperor, it can still maintain the demeanor of a famous sect. It is neither humble nor arrogant. How can it be possible to kneel down and lick others?!
The praise for Zhang Guangmu is just pragmatic. At best, it is just because Feihong has been friends with the Ghost Sword Sect for generations and has a close relationship. It is a little exaggerated, and it is considered a routine operation.
It is normal for people to carry people in sedan chairs and swordsmen traveling in the world to compliment each other without involving their own interests.
Due to the intervention of the Ghost Sword Sect, rumors about "Red Lotus Sword Technique" spread more and more widely.
Later, it even evolved into a bizarre joke like "Zhang Guangmu, who became immortal because of his practice of "Red Lotus Sword Technique", has lived for countless centuries."
Faced with the increasingly outrageous rumors, Zhang Guangmu did not come forward to refute them.
Such an attitude has made many people who originally thought "Red Lotus Sword Technique" was a scam begin to be a little skeptical.
after all……
Zhang Guangmu is famous for his arrogance.
If he didn't have "Red Lotus Sword Technique" in his hand, wouldn't it be better to just hold a press conference and publicly deny it?
【Crazy King】How arrogant are you?
Less than half a year after his debut, the Feihong Sect revived, the Nineteen Sword Sects rushed to offer him an olive branch, the Ghost Sword Sect also wanted to fawn over him, and he even publicly announced that he would compete with the Demon Sword Emperor Lin An in swordsmanship.
Zhang Guangmu like this is by no means a complicated and reserved character!
The impression he left on people was that of a reckless man who was so arrogant that he didn't even bother to lie.
Faced with rumors, Zhang Guangmu chose not to respond.
Such a reaction, in the eyes of many people, is actually equivalent to acquiescence.
When suspicions arose, Zhang Guangmu, who had been in seclusion for several days, finally accepted a joint interview with 19 media outlets including Wudang Channel, Yaksha Channel, and Hehuan Channel.
