Chapter 1226 - He Attracted Worldwide Attention!
Chapter 1226 He Attracted Worldwide Attention!
Shu’nan City, Chuan’nan Province, Huaxia…
The Pear Garden…
Yun Yangzi had come back early to prepare for his closed-door cultivation. But before he could even begin, he heard the rumors in Wulin.
“John Doe is a guru?”
“Impossible. There’s no way he is a guru!”
“When I fought with him, I could feel that he was almost worn out in the end. He would never have felt exhausted if he had been a guru. He is definitely not a guru.”
“But, if he wasn’t a guru, how could he defeat a guru?”
Yun Yangzi walked alone in the garden filled with pear trees. The more he thought about it, the more confused he became.
He couldn’t figure it out.
“What was going on with John Doe?”
“How could he be so peerless?”
After walking for a while, Yun Yangzi came to a pavilion and stood at its entrance and seemed to be waiting for someone.
Soon after…
“Whistle!”
A piercing sound echoed through the air.
Following that, a white shadow darted into the pavilion.
He gazed at it fixedly.
It was none other than Master Numinous.
“Master.”
Yun Yangzi bowed to Master Numinous in the pavilion, gave him a hold fist salute, and stepped into it.
At this moment…
With his brows furrowed, Master Numinous seemed overwhelmed by a myriad of feelings, a little depressed, speechless, and even frantic.
“Um.”
When he heard Yun Yangzi’s greeting, Master Numinous turned round and nodded at him. Before Yun Yangzi could speak, he took the lead to ask, “You have fought with John Doe once. Did you feel he had any special aura about him? For example, you could have felt that he had been holding back his power. Did you feel sort of defeated even before the battle against him?”
“I was about to tell you about this.”
Yun Yangzi replied, “I felt no special aura from John Doe. In our last combat, I had a distinct impression that John Doe had fought to the best of his ability, and every ounce of his strength had been put into his last strike. But when I came back, I heard that John Doe is now a guru. Is it true?”
“That’s even harder to say.”
Master Numinous shook his head and said, “I’m not sure if John Doe is a guru, but I can tell you with certainty that John Doe just killed four ordinary gurus and a super expert stronger than an ordinary guru.”
“What?”
Yun Yangzi’s eyes widened, and he was struck dumb with amazement.
“I witnessed the death of two gurus!”
Master Numinous said, shaking his head, “I can’t be sure whether John Doe is a guru or not. But even if he is not a guru, his combat capability is stronger than an ordinary guru’s!”
“He killed five gurus in total?”
Yun Yangzi’s shock increased.
He had just made his breakthrough but only became a Half-step Guru. There was still a wide gap between him and a guru!
But now…
He thought of John Doe.
The young man was nearly at the same level as him. In fact, John Doe was slightly weaker. No one had expected him to reach such a terrifying level.
Now John Doe was scarily powerful.
“The gap between us is widening.”
Yun Yangzi shook his head with a wry smile and sighed.
“This kid is way too weird.”
Master Numinous shook his head and said, “Normal people can’t compare with him.”
Hearing his remark…
Yun Yangzi smiled bitterly.
It was the first time he had heard his master comment on someone like this.
“Well, I think I’m no worse than John Doe.”
Yun Yangzi let out a long breath and said, “I admit my strength is not as good as his, but my talent may be better. After watching the battle today, I feel I’m closer to becoming a guru, so I’m eager to cultivate in seclusion. I must seize this opportunity and become an authentic guru after a breakthrough!”
Meanwhile…
In Wulin, leaders from the other three great families, the eight factions, and sixteen sects issued orders simultaneously.
“No one is allowed to have any unnecessary conflict with John Doe and his people, especially when you are not in the right! Never!”
This restraining order was issued…
In an instant, it spread rapidly among all forces.
In addition to the independent cultivators, almost all Wulin people had received the same warning: “Don’t get into a conflict with John Doe’s men unless you’re in the right!”
For a time…
John Doe became the person whom everyone focused on in Wulin.
Sure enough…
Except for these forces…
Those independent cultivators didn’t seem any worse than people from forces. At the end of the battle between John Doe and Qingshan, they profoundly understood how powerful John Doe was.
Before this…
Many people had designs on the Heaven Dew business managed by He Gaoming and others. But they all held back ever since they learned John Doe had even defeated a guru.
That was a guru.
Now that even a guru became John Doe’s defeated opponent, they could hardly imagine how powerful John Doe was.
The most daunting thing was…
They recalled what John Doe had done before.
An auction house with a strong background viciously robbed him of his belongings and beat up his people. As a result, he took He Gaoming directly to their auction house and smashed up their place.
Someone had provoked him.
He went straight to his force on the mountain and disabled the person.
Then, a fool, who didn’t know how to assess the situation correctly, hurt his disciple. In the end, John Doe wiped out the person together with his force!
Judging from these things…
John Doe was particularly protective toward his people and favored the heavy-handed approach.
Even though Heaven Dew was valuable, it was not as important as their lives!
In addition to these major forces, the low-level people in Wulin were also crazily spreading the news that John Doe had defeated a guru. They had never come into contact with a guru, so they didn’t know how powerful a guru was, and most rumors that were spread were mainly bragging. Nevertheless, all of this made the new Wulin generation understand how formidable John Doe was.
Undoubtedly, their ‘free advertising’ attracted a large number of fans to John Doe.
In this way…
Rumors in the upper level of Wulin said that John Doe might be a guru, and these lower practitioners wildly exaggerated John Doe’s competitiveness. Their animated discussions about John Doe filled the entire Wulin.
As a superpower…
Huaxia had always been the center of attention of many other countries. Of course, Huaxia Wulin had received special attention.
Under this circumstance, some people transmitted the news carried by the Wulin online forum to the world underground-force forum.
Certainly…
The underground forces had a grading standard for the Wulin people. For example, when on the island in the sea, John Doe had been rated as A-class. After the failure of the world’s third-greatest killer, John Doe’s rating was upgraded to S-class. Since then, he had a fearsome reputation among countless people in the underground forces.
The news of John Doe defeating a guru spread widely and quickly on the Wulin online forum.
On the world underground-force forum…

“John Doe in Huaxia vanquished an S-class expert!”
As soon as this news came out, it immediately caused an uproar on the world underground-force forum.
“S-class expert?”
“This is simply terrifying.”
“John Doe himself is an S-class expert, isn’t he?”
“There are only a few S-class experts worldwide, but John Doe is potent enough to crush an S-class expert?”
“It sounds horrible. At present, the only S-class expert I know is Lingyin, who ranks first on the killer list. I have never heard of the other S-class experts. John Doe defeated an S-class expert in Huaxia. Does that mean John Doe can defeat Lingyin”
“It seems that the administrators of the underground-force forum need to reevaluate John Doe’s strength.”
“This is extremely frightening. Do you remember Thomas, who ranked second on the world’s killer list? No wonder John Doe slayed him with such ease. John Doe could even defeat an S-class super expert. What could he not do?”
On the world underground-force forum…
John Doe went viral.
Everyone was raving about John Doe.
In the meantime…
In Zhongdong…
Gospel Division and Truth Division, two first-rate forces, also received the same news.
Merely ten minutes later…
The two forces released announcements one after another.
“From today on, Gospel Division will not issue any reward for subduing John Doe!”
“From now on, Truth Division will no longer set a price on John Doe!”
They issued these two public notices.
After that, underground forces all over the world paid more attention to John Doe.
In the whole world, only a few could beat an S-class expert. Since such an influential expert had suffered defeat, guardians and A-class experts of various forces would be no match for John Doe.
Therefore…
Even those forces protected by S-class experts had to ponder whether they could afford to provoke John Doe.
As for those organizations without S-class experts, they had to be more cautious.
For them, getting on John Doe’s wrong side was something that they could not afford to do!
Huaxia…
In the military base of Beijiang…
“He can’t conceal his strength any longer.”
Li Ji showed a bitter smile after he saw all the news on the Wulin online forum and the world underground-force forum.
In this world…
He was the first person who knew that John Doe was a guru!
It had been almost two years since he got to know John Doe.
In the past two years, John Doe had tried his best to hide his real strength as a guru, and he had been doing a great job about that. However…
His secret had now been exposed.
Nevertheless…
Li Ji was also very curious.
“Why would John Doe hide his true strength?
“Could it be that his previous breakthroughs were only used to confuse others?”
Li Ji couldn’t figure it out.
But even though he knew John Doe’s true identity, there was another secret about John Doe that could never be revealed!
It wouldn’t have much of an impact on John Doe when his true strength was widely known, but once his true identity was exposed, there would be a big problem.
Fortunately, it hadn’t slipped out.
Here…
After leaving the place where he slaughtered Seventh Venerable, Fang Qiu flew at full speed to a mountain forest 20 kilometers away and hid.
His phone kept ringing.
He opened it to take a look.
All the significant families and forces had sent messages to ask if he was a guru.
Fang Qiu didn’t answer any of them.
It would be good to keep them guessing.
Although he was 20 kilometers away, Fang Qiu’s Divine Consciousness had been fixed on Qingshan. After the four patriarchs and Master Numinous left, Fang Qiu was not in a hurry to go out. Instead, he tailed after Qingshan by using his Divine Consciousness.
He was curious.
Would Qingshan go and meet his master? If so, that would save Fang Qiu the trouble of asking. If not, it wouldn’t be too late for him to appear and ask!
During this period, Fang Qiu followed Qingshan and left Qinghai.
Then they entered an endless mountain forest!
