Chapter 441: Chapter 440: How Rumors are Formed

“This issue of ‘Heavenly Machine Newspaper’ is bound to sell out.” The first thing Fate Daoist did after returning from the Nine Provinces Meeting was gathering reports and dedicating the front page of Heavenly Machine Newspaper to the contents of the meeting.

“No, no, more than that, this issue of the Heavenly Machine Newspaper will not write about anything else, only the Nine Provinces Meeting!”

A disciple from the Sky Mechanism Tower, whispering by the side reminded the Tower Master: “But we originally planned to insert advertisements between the newspaper pages, so there won’t be any advertisements this time?”

From the fact that they could advertise in the Heavenly Machine Newspaper, one could imagine how much Spirit Stone the other party had spent.

“Compared with the Nine Provinces Meeting, what are advertisements? The ads will be posted in the next issue. If those people have objections, they can go to the Imperial Palace.” Fate Daoist has always known what’s important and what’s not.

He vaguely felt that the significance of this meeting was even greater than the last one.

The Nine Provinces and the six worlds have reached a cooperation agreement, something that has never happened before.

Even when the Stairway to Immortality existed, this didn’t happen.

When the Stairway to Immortality existed, only the Immortal Realm was the core of the Ten Thousand Realms and the only one who would connect with the Ten Thousand Realms.

Now, Nine Provinces is doing the same thing as the Immortal Realm, Fate Daoist doesn’t know if the Human Emperor intended this or it’s an accident. He thinks that this matter isn’t that simple, and there is some profound significance behind it that he does not know.

However, he would only think about such things without speaking out.

“Tower Master, there is big news!”Another disciple from the Sky Mechanism Tower ran up panting, with trembling hands.

“What’s the rush, what could be the big news?” Fate Daoist frowned. Even news as big as an otherworldly Heavenly Demon attack would obediently wait for the next edition of Heavenly Machine Newspaper.

“There is a Human Emperor candidate…”

“What?” Fate Daoist thought he had misheard.

“Someone’s eyebrows have changed, becoming a Human Emperor Candidate.”

Fate Daoist suddenly stood up, flipping over the table: “Where is the person, I’m going to see. Also, contact all the branch tower heads, ask them to verify as quickly as possible whether there are Human Emperor Candidates appearing in other places!”

…

“Extra, extra, hot off the Heavenly Machine Newspaper, someone has become a Human Emperor Candidate.”

The newsboy had only just shouted out, and he was instantly surrounded by a crowd. When the crowd dispersed, he was holding a large stack of Spirit Stones, and not a single newspaper was left.

The headline of Heavenly Machine Newspaper – “Earth Veins have selected the Human Emperor Candidate.”

Originally, Fate Daoist wanted to use “Stunning Appearance of Human Emperor Candidate on the Street” as the title, but the cultivation technique told him that this was a bad omen, so he had to come up with a new title.

As for the Nine Provinces Meeting, without a single thought, Fate Daoist directly put it on the second page.

Sky Mechanism Tower spent a large sum of money to buy a printing machine from Ming Zhong World. The newspaper production capacity was astonishing, and there was never a shortage.

Just as Fate Daoist thought, people’s attention to the Human Emperor Candidates was far higher than the attention to the Nine Provinces Meeting.

“Dao Sect disciple, Body-incorporating Sect disciple, Buddha Master has become a candidate for Human Emperor.”

“Who are Qin Luan and Yuan Wuxing, they sound familiar.”

“They are two cultivators who have been in the limelight recently. Qin Luan is in the Nascent Soul Stage, Yuan Wuxing is in the Divinity Transformation Stage, and both of them are trending as unbeatable in their stages.”

“I remember now, it was the two of them. Last time I saw them participating in the auction, they bought an unattended item for a low price. After the auction, someone tried to snatch the item, but was counter-killed by Yuan Wuxing.”

“Why did people from other worlds also become Human Emperor candidates?” Someone didn’t understand the situation.

“Read the whole newspaper, isn’t it all written on the next page of the newspaper? During the Nine Provinces Meeting, six worlds and Nine Provinces reached a cooperation relationship, ready to build the future together, and the Nine Provinces Earth Veins also recognized people from other worlds.”

“Believe in the accuracy of the Nine Provinces Earth Veins. Over the past nine thousand years, have you seen the Earth Veins make a mistake once?”

“Indeed, since the Earth Veins chose these people, these people’s character must be top-notch, they won’t favor their own world, but will regard all seven worlds equally.”

“No, didn’t you guys discuss the key point after talking for half a day?”

“What’s the key point?”

“Why would there be Human Emperor Candidates at all! The Human Emperor is in his prime, unparalleled in the world. Why does His Majesty want to choose the next Human Emperor?”

“Didn’t the newspaper explain that already. Fate Daoist went to the Imperial Palace and interviewed the Human Emperor. The Human Emperor said that this selection of Human Emperor candidates was originally intended to stimulate the enthusiasm of young people, urging the younger generation to diligently cultivate, practice well, and practice more, so that these Human Emperor candidates can play a leading role.”

“Indeed, these Human Emperor Candidates are about the same age as me, but their cultivation level is already at the Nascent Soul Stage. Compared with them, I have completely wasted the talent of my double spiritual root.”

“I’m embarrassed about my single Spiritual Root.”

“Rather than this, I’m more concerned about how long it will take for the only Human Emperor Candidate to become the Human Emperor after being selected.”

“I don’t think it will happen in my lifetime.”

“Not even in the next life.”

“My great-uncle works at the Imperial Palace, he said that the Human Emperor wants to retire, hence he wants to select a new Human Emperor.”

“Really? My uncle who works in the Imperial Palace said that the Human Emperor enjoys finding things to amuse himself. This time the selection of Human Emperor Candidates is purely for fun.”

“Your news is clearly wrong. How could the upright Human Emperor play around for fun?”

“You can’t say for sure, haven’t you heard the saying that one who stays near vermilion gets stained red, and one who stays near ink gets stained black. He spends every day with Sect Master Bai Hongtu, maybe he’s influenced by him.”

“You saying that, it’s not impossible. All fault of Sect Master Bai, has influenced the Human Emperor.”

“Dao Sect is really despicable, I’ll boycott it and resolve not to become a Dao Sect disciple.”

“I remember you participating in the Dao Sect disciple selection and getting eliminated?”

“I gave up on joining Dao Sect, it’s not that Dao Sect didn’t want me.”

…

“Did you hear that, the Human Emperor wants to retire and selected a few Human Emperor Candidates just for fun.”

…

“Did you hear that, the Human Emperor wants to retire, intended to let the Earth Veins become Human Emperor, but the Earth Veins disagreed, so he selected a few Human Emperor Candidates.”

…

“Did you hear that, because the Human Emperor is not always in the Imperial Palace, it led to the want to retire by Commander Liu, the Human Emperor felt guilty, so he wanted to select a new Human Emperor to replace him in the Imperial Palace.”

…

“Hall Master, there is a rumor outside that the Earth Veins have gained spiritual wisdom and want me to retire. You disagreed, so you planned to select Human Emperor Candidates and let the new Human Emperor stay in the Imperial Palace.” Liu Commander reported with a strange expression to Jiang Li.

“What a mess?” Jiang Li felt that it had nothing to do with his speech in the Heavenly Machine Newspaper.

Commander Liu also reported the trajectory of the rumor.

“It can’t be that the rumor that I could break ten thousand laws with a single sword also came about this way? Forget it, it doesn’t matter. I will first arrange a trial for these young Human Emperor Candidates, let them know the dangers of the world.” Jiang Li sneered as if thinking back to the trials held by the old Human Emperor.

Jiang Li took out the Remote Communication Talisman, contacted his old friends: “Old Bai, Yu Yin, are you there? Come and participate in the selection of the Human Emperor.”
