Chapter 139: 139. Demolition feels great for a moment, consequence is a crematorium later on.
The headline content of the fourth issue is still presented from the perspective of whistleblower Ms. Li Ruyu, describing her experiences.
After Li Ruyu exposed the abuse of male disciples by her sect, she indeed faced retaliation from the sect, who wanted to imprison her on a trumped-up charge.
But before that decision could be implemented, the Xuanji Sect was attacked by a powerful enemy.
Unwilling to wait for death, Li Ruyu escaped during the chaos and secretly investigated, only to discover that the attackers were from a small sect in the Yun Mountain Region that had been suppressed by the Xuanji Sect years ago.
This small sect had been demolished with violence by the Xuanji Sect, causing countless casualties.
The survivors of the small sect bore the humiliation and attached themselves to a mysterious powerful force, silently amassing strength before seizing the opportunity to strike back against the Xuanji Sect, causing heavy losses.
Feeling the karmic justice, Li Ruyu exposed the incident.
Finally, she advised the readers in the tone of a person who had experienced it: “Demolishing others’ homes may feel good for a moment, but it ends in a crematorium. Those who demolish act arrogantly now, but their graves will be overgrown with grass in the future.”
After reading it, Yu Qing immediately associated this news with the Law Enforcement Department’s plan to forcibly demolish Moon Viewing Peak.
She could guess that Fang Zhou had written it intentionally, but she couldn’t fathom his purpose.
Did he do this just to vent his anger, or was there another reason?
In Yu Qing’s view, this action had no benefit other than provoking Elder Yan.
Yu Qing couldn’t help but ask Fang Zhou, “Taoist Fang, does this really have any use?”
“What are you talking about?”
Fang Zhou blinked innocently: “I don’t understand. If you’re talking about the rumors of Xuanji Sect facing retribution for demolishing others, it’s just hearsay. I’m merely reporting from an objective standpoint.”
Even though it was an open scheme, he couldn’t give anyone grounds to accuse him.
Though he trusted Yu Qing wouldn’t say anything, he thought it was best to be cautious.
Yu Qing knew Fang Zhou was playing dumb and sighed slightly. She wanted to help, but there was nothing she could do.
However, she could now be sure that Fang Zhou’s news was likely fabricated.
Xuanji Sect was a prominent sect in Jingnan State, second only to the Heavenly Sword Sect. If it were really attacked, the entire cultivation world in Jingnan State would be in an uproar, and information would have spread, not remaining this calm.
With this thought, Yu Qing lost interest in the fake news, swiftly turning to the Fiction section to read the latest installments of ‘Young Master Bai Jie’ and ‘Gatekeeper Aunt Qin.’
By now, only this new knowledge could engross her.
Seeing Yu Qing engrossed in reading the paper, Fang Zhou quietly called Lu Qiuling to the side and assigned her a new task: to sell the extra newspapers to Yunshan City.
Lu Qiuling was excited by the task, thinking Fang Zhou intended to expand the market, and readily agreed.
But she soon frowned, mentioning a problem: “Boss, I can’t descend the mountain at will.”
As a regular disciple, Lu Qiuling could go down the mountain only twice a month. If she took leave from the Dharma Transmission Elders, it could increase to four times, but no more.
Four times a month was clearly insufficient to expand the market.
But Fang Zhou had already thought of this problem. He took out a jade token, flashing it in front of Lu Qiuling.
Lu Qiuling widened her eyes in surprise: “A Pass Jade Token! Boss, how did you get this?”
The Pass Jade Token allowed one to descend the mountain at any time, but it was incredibly rare, so how did an outsider like the boss obtain it?
Of course, the token was entrusted to Fang Zhou by True Master Yu Jian through Yu Qing, but such affairs couldn’t be spoken about carelessly.
He threw the token to Lu Qiuling, saying softly, “Don’t ask too much, just return it to me once the task is completed.”
Lu Qiuling hastily accepted it, inwardly feeling profound admiration for Fang Zhou.

He had created this novel newspaper, his advertising methods were astonishing, and he had mysterious connections able to procure rare items.
In Lu Qiuling’s mind, Fang Zhou’s image soared, becoming increasingly unreachable.
Initially, Lu Qiuling felt somewhat aggrieved about becoming Fang Zhou’s employee, but now she believed she had made a wise decision.
Following such a boss, how could she not get rich?
She smiled broadly, assuring Fang Zhou, “Boss, rest assured, within ten days, I will have the newspapers sold throughout Yunshan City.”
Fang Zhou instinctively wanted to pat her chest but held back at the last moment, opting to pat her shoulder instead: “I believe in you.”
This girl was very astute, unlike some fool. Being overly familiar might lead to misunderstandings.
…
The fourth issue of the newspaper was exceptionally successful, with record-breaking sales.
The main reason was that the fourth issue featured several disciples’ contributions.
These contributions were carefully selected by Cheng Xing, and their quality was decent. The contributors, overjoyed to be published, actively promoted the newspaper, directly boosting the sales of Wangyue Daily.
Now, Fang Zhou could proudly announce that Wangyue Daily had reached every corner of the Heavenly Sword Sect.
Fang Zhou wasn’t sure if the higher-ups of the Heavenly Sword Sect read the newspaper. She couldn’t exactly sneak into the restroom to see if the Sect Master reads it there! That would be too dangerous and possibly a one-way trip.
Nonetheless, Fang Zhou knew that gossiping was in the nature of intelligent beings. Not only humans, even demons couldn’t avoid it.
Fang Zhou also had Lu Qiuling conduct a survey to see what the disciples thought of the fourth issue, particularly their reactions to the news about demolitions.
Lu Qiuling, with her deft social skills, gathered feedback within a day.
The disciples were very satisfied with the fourth issue. Most felt indignant about the news on demolitions, stating that the Xuanji Sect was bullying the weak and that evildoers get what they deserve.
This assured Fang Zhou that his effort was worth it. True to their name, prominent sects were zero-tolerant towards evil.
He began working on the fifth issue, as they had received a lot of contributions for this edition.
…
At Heavenly Sword Peak, in a small dojo, Yan Gulan had also subscribed to the fourth issue of the newspaper.
Upon seeing the headline, Yan Gulan couldn’t help but feel annoyed. She could clearly see that Fang Zhou was using the news as a veiled attack against her.
Of course, she wasn’t entirely unjustified. The decision by the Law Enforcement Department to demolish Moon Viewing Peak while Ling Xiaoyue was away was secretly driven and fully overseen by Yan Gulan herself.
Fang Zhou’s attempt to use the newspaper to criticize her hit a sore spot, making her angry.
“Hmph, this master and disciple pair are just as despicable and obstinate,” Yan Gulan snorted coldly, instinctively wanting to find a way to shut down the paper.
But as soon as this thought arose, she felt reluctant to do so, as the newspaper’s contents had been her only source of joy lately.
After another moment, she felt amused. This kid dared only make veiled criticisms through the newspaper without even mentioning her name, let alone confronting her directly.
Such weakness gave Yan Gulan a sense of satisfaction.
It was obvious to Yan Gulan what Fang Zhou was aiming for with his newspaper: to win the sympathy of the disciples of the Heavenly Sword Sect.
This made Yan Gulan laugh. Even if the disciples sympathized, so what? Would they dare stand up for Moon Viewing Peak and defy their own Law Enforcement Department?
After all, Fang Zhou was just a naive, inexperienced kid with immature methods and ideas.
