“Wind and Cloud?!”

Everyone who came to Fang Qi after finishing watching Jade Dynasty looked surprised, “A new TV series?!”

“Four episodes?!”

They were pleasantly surprised.

“What’s it about?” Nalan Mingxue asked, “Are there major factions as powerful as the Green Cloud Faction in Jade Dynasty?”

“Is there the sword control technique in the new TV series?” From games to TV series, all the factions had some sort of sword control technique, which made them think that this technique was the integral part of the factions showed in Fang Qi’s shop.

Fang Qi shook his head. “Wind and Cloud is about warriors, and there’s no sword control technique.”

“About warriors? Then, there are no dharma spells...” An Huwei looked not interested.

Su Tianji was also disappointed, but she said, “Since Jade Dynasty is mainly about cultivation factions, it’s fair to have a TV series about warriors.”

However, Nalan Mingxue looked interested. “Are the main characters in this TV series warriors? Activate it for me!”

“The new TV series’s main characters are warriors?!” At this moment, many people including the warriors from the three major academies had just finished watching Jade Dynasty, and they were looking this way expectantly, hoping that there was something good to watch. They perked up when they heard that the new TV series was mainly about warriors.

As an independent warrior, Liang Shi usually played Resident Evil. Later, he saved some money and bought the Legend of the Sword and Fairy in which he learned the sword control technique. He used this technique to hunt demon beasts with Wu Shan and the others and had made some money. He knew that warriors could learn some sword spells in Jade Dynasty and use them with the sword control technique, and he was about to watch it. Now that he heard the new TV series focused mainly on warriors, he was immediately hooked.

“Sir! Activate Wind and Cloud for me too!”

“Me too! Me too!” Wu Shan, Blackie, and a few others also came up. They hadn’t come to the shop for days since they had been out doing missions to make money!

“Three crystals for one episode?” They glanced at the price. “It’s one crystal cheaper than Jade Dynasty! That’s awesome!”

They were among the oldest customers of the shop, but they had been cautious with purchases due to lack of funds. It was good news for them that they could save one crystal on each episode!

The instructors from Lingyun Academy such as Chen Zhong and Yu Liang were also pleased. “Sir! Activate Wind and Cloud for us.”

“The main characters are warriors?” The Royal Princess and the other royal members looked at each other, thinking that it was a must-watch!

Xiao Lengyu, Ying Zongxuan, and their peers claimed that they were here to cultivate, so they must watch this TV series!

Dong Qingli said in excitement, “The TV series in this shop are superb. I don’t care if it’s about warriors or cultivators! I’ll buy it!”

“Sir!” Dong Qingli then asked a follow-up question, “Are there any new snacks?!”

She pointed at the empty instant noodle bowls and Coke bottles on the desk and said, “They are not enough!”

Fang Qi’s face twitched. “No new snacks for now!”

“Okay...” Dong Qingli sniffed and sank into the TV series after activating it.

As for An Huwei and others, they wanted to wait until the warriors finished watching the TV series. After all, they were cultivators.

...

[The Worldly (Tian Xia) Union has become the No.1 Organization in the world in less than ten years under the leadership of the Union Master, Xiong Ba. It has expanded greatly and is at its peak!]

Watching the massive and powerful Worldly Union, people felt excited!

Another major force!

They wondered if it was as powerful as the Green Cloud Faction!

“Hey! Sir!” The seats next to Fang Qi were always precious. Knowing that the ‘mysterious senior’ often gave Fang Qi private lessons, people wanted to sit next to him to ask about the tips in games and TV series spoilers.

Today, Nalan Mingxue took one of these precious seats. While eating Haagen-Dazs, she bumped Fang Qi with her elbow and asked, “Which one is more powerful, the Worldly Union or the Green Cloud Faction?”

Fang Qi’s face turned stiff, wondering how he could compare two things which were totally different.

However, with all things considered, the Green Cloud Faction was much more powerful.

“The Green Cloud is more powerful.”

“How about the Clay Buddha, the No. 1 Physiognomist?” Nalan Mingxue clicked her tongue and asked, “How come there are so many No. 1s in the world? Is the Clay Buddha very powerful?”

[TL Note: Physiognomist is a person supposedly able to judge character (or, formerly, to predict the future) from facial characteristics.]

Fang Qi replied with a dark expression, “In the whole world, he’s the only physiognomist who isn’t a fraud. Don’t you think it makes him the No. 1 in the world? Can’t you watch it by yourself? Don’t ask me for spoilers!”

“Why not? Union Master Xiang got a spoiler as well by asking for a prophecy from the Clay Buddha.”

While eating Haagen-Dazs, Nalan Mingxue recited a famous phrase from Wind and Cloud, “The gold Kirin is unusual, and it will turn into a dragon when it meets wind and cloud.”

“The gold Kirin is unusual, and it will turn into a dragon when it meets wind and cloud?” Royal Princess Ji Yu was also pondering over this phrase while she watched the TV series.

She exclaimed, “The Clay Buddha can really predict Xiong Ba’s future? That’s awesome!”

...

Today, Song Qingfeng had also gotten a good seat, sitting to the right of Fang Qi. “F**k! The flood submerged the Giant Buddha’s knees and the fire burned the Lingyun Den. Does it mean that they will battle on the top of the Giant Buddha Statue?!”

“My God! Such a long saber!”

Fang Qi watched the battle in shock. “Nie Renwang really cast bolts of saber energy up to 40 meters in length!”

The System reproduced this horrifying saber technique?!

Fang Qi remembered that this saber energy in the comic version wasn’t even this long. He wondered which version the System based this TV series on.

“Ugh... It is not 40 meters, right?” Song Qingfeng measured the saber energy with his eyes.

“You’re naïve.” Nalan Mingxue said, “obviously, the shop owner exaggerated.”

“Bur, Sir,” Song Qingfeng complained, “Nie Renwang’s cultivation strength is lower than an Ancestral Warrior. This TV series is only one crystal cheaper than Jade Dynasty, but the characters’ strengths are much lower!”

“You don’t understand the Green Leaf Ancestral Master’s sword techniques anyway,” Nalan Mingxue said, “Although Nie Renwang’s cultivation strength is much lower than that of the Green Leaf Ancestral Master, his saber technique is really good, and its enough for us if we can master it!”

“Right! Right!” Song Qingfeng chuckled. “In the future, we can use the sword control technique to battle from the distance, the 40-meter saber energy at middle range, and the close-range combat skill in close range. Whoever dares to challenge me will die!”

“Right.” Fang Qi said, “I’d allow the enemies to run for 39 meters; I wouldn’t cast the saber energy any closer.”

The other two were at a loss for words.

Suddenly, they yelled when they were halfway through. “What’s this thing?! How come it has flames all over its body?!”

“It looks like a Kirin?!”

“No way?! How can this legendary godly beast exist in the real world?!”

At this moment, Liang Shi and the others yelled, “The Union Master Xiong is teaching the Cloud Expelling Palm and Wind God Kick!”

“And the Sky Frost Fist!”

“Hey! We can’t learn them just by watching for a short time!”

The Royal Princess and the two princes were also excited.

“Young Master Feng is going to battle the force called Wushuang City!”

“Xiong Ba is good; he’s ambitious and powerful,” Ji Yang said, “I wonder if our grandpa was this powerful when he began conquering the region.”

“Nonsense!” Ji Yu said, “Grandpa was much more powerful than Xiong Ba! When he conquered the big families, he had even reached the mid-stage of the Emperor Warrior Realm! He could stand in the sky and kill cultivators like chopping vegetables!”

“Ugh... The four episodes are over?!”

“I haven’t learned the Wind God Kick, yet. Sir!”

“When can I master the 40-meter long saber techniques?”

“We’ve watched four episodes already?!”

Sad howls filled the internet cafe instantly.
