Chapter 26

"Are you guys done yet! You're not students of our class, what are you doing here! Weren't you the one who spread the rumors yesterday? Get out of here!"

It was the break after the second class.

In the elite class of the First High School, a tall and beautiful girl suddenly slammed her hand on the table and started scolding the boys at the back.

She was over 1.7 meters tall, with long, slender legs that would make even a gentleman like Lin Mu "kneel and beg for a waist lock."

Her finely arched eyebrows made her look exceptionally clear and handsome, and her phoenix eyes added a touch of charm.

The elite class was filled with the best students of the senior year at the First High School, who were usually the pride of the school.

But at that moment, they didn't dare to retort even a single word after being scolded by the girl.

This girl was named Lu Yifei. The boys didn't dare to speak up not only because she was the school beauty but also because she was the granddaughter of "Lu Buping"...

Chang Qiankun smiled awkwardly and slunk out of the classroom.

The few classmates, who had intended to attract Lu Yifei's attention by speaking loudly, didn't expect her to lose her temper so quickly and immediately lowered their heads like turtles.

With a cold snort, Lu Yifei sat back down and picked up the newly bought *Wuxia Story* to daydream.

"Internal energy..."

*Wuxia Story* was delivered to various sales points before 8 a.m. It had only been two hours, and many readers who bought it during breakfast had already finished the current issue, including Lu Yifei.

She loved all kinds of worldviews, or more accurately, the exciting stories that unfolded in those various worldviews. Her greatest dream was to become a director and make a movie that perfectly matched her imagination.

To achieve this, she maintained the habit of reading various magazines and documents even under the heavy workload of her studies.

In the past, after finishing a magazine, she would always recall the highlights in her mind, fully understand them, and then make them her own.

But today, after finishing the entire magazine, her mind kept repeating only two words: "internal energy"!

It was as if a frog that had been living at the bottom of a well suddenly jumped out and saw a brand new, boundless world, instantly filling her vision. This kind of shock and obsession was something outsiders couldn't understand at all!

"This person, how did he come up with such ideas! I might as well make friends with him in the future; such novel ideas are enough to make a unique movie!"

...

Yizhan Qianji was a wuxia enthusiast who usually ran a small store with poor business, finding it extremely boring. His favorite thing to do was to read wuxia novels online and in magazines.

Yizhan Qianji was his online name, and he even liked others to call him by this name in real life.

Whether it was wuxia movies or novels, he loved them all.

Therefore, every issue of *Wuxia* and *Wuxia Story* was a must-buy for him.

"River North's *Seven Curses of the Wild Wind* is truly amazing! People can actually have such magical powers like 'special abilities,' but it's a pity that they are exclusive to the protagonist. If the villains also had 'special abilities,' it would be even more interesting..."

Reluctantly finishing the first chapter of *Seven Curses of the Wild Wind*, Yizhan Qianji put down the book, turned on his computer, went to the *Seven Curses of the Wild Wind* page, used all his free recommendation votes, and then closed the computer.

Although he knew that the next chapters of *Seven Curses of the Wild Wind* were available online for free, he forced himself not to read them.

"Since River North is writing the novel with dedication, as a reader, I should support him sincerely. Buying the magazine is a form of support, and voting online is also a form of support. It only costs a few cents to vote, and if I don't do it, that would be like draining the pond to catch all the fish."

While thinking this, Yizhan Qianji opened *Wuxia Story*.

"Hmm, not bad! The quality of *Wuxia Story* is still good. Apart from the lack of famous works, everything else is pretty good. But it seems the quality of this issue isn't great, and the serial introduction at the end seems to be just a way to attract attention with a beauty... Wait, there's a wuxia bookmark? Is it the introduction for the next issue?! How can this be? Never mind, let's see..."

Once he started reading, he couldn't stop. Yizhan Qianji's mouth opened wider and wider, his head filled with blood, and his eyes were only focused on the small bookmark, feeling an inexplicable excitement from every cell in his body.

"Qi and Gang! Holy crap! Why does the name make me feel so fired up?"

After staring at the bookmark for a while, Yizhan Qianji suddenly turned on his computer, entered the *Wuxia Story* Baidu Tieba, and started typing a post.

...

In a five-star hotel restaurant in Chang'an City.

He Shuo was about to leave when his phone rang.

The call lasted less than a minute, but his brows furrowed due to the content of the conversation.

"Go buy a copy of *Wuxia Story* and look at the bookmark inside!"

It was very common for magazines to come with bookmarks, usually just a small advertisement for the magazine. What was there to see?

Moreover, given his status in the short and medium-length wuxia novels, the content of a second-ranked domestic wuxia magazine wouldn't catch his eye.

But he still walked to a nearby newsstand and bought a copy.

The bookmark was on the inside cover of the book.

The front side was the magazine's logo, nothing special, but when he saw the text on the back, he couldn't help but draw a sharp breath!

"This... This... How is this possible!!!"

His strong self-control was instantly shattered by those few lines of text. What he saw was no longer just a bookmark but a massive earthquake that seemed to be transforming the world!

Suddenly, he realized something and looked at the bookmark again.

"*Liancheng Jue*!"

A common wuxia book title, but at that moment, it seemed to possess great magic, making him, the top writer of short and medium-length wuxia novels, feel an overwhelming urge to read it immediately.

"No! I must revise the next draft of my novel immediately! Special abilities! Haha, special abilities! How could I be so stupid? I already thought about giving the protagonist superhuman powers, but I was still so narrow-minded, unwilling to think further!"

He Shuo was filled with regret and frustration. If he had proposed the concept of "internal energy," his status in the novel and literary world would have soared. Even if the concept of "internal energy" became common and outdated in the future, his name "He Shuo" would still be remembered in history, passed down for generations!

"Never mind, I'll salvage it as soon as possible. I can reset the plot for the next part. As for the chapters already published online... forget it, I'll revise them!"
