Damn, I turned into a monster

Chapter 245, Part 243: Good acting skills
Even if one's strength reaches the level of a Star Lord, one still cannot avoid the complexities of human relationships, after all, this is the underlying logic of a civilized society.

Although this civilization is already very advanced and has entered the interstellar age, some deeply rooted things will not disappear with the development of civilization.

Its disappearance is often less related to the technological level of a civilization and more to the progress of its thought. Clearly, the Qiongyuan civilization had not yet reached that level.

Wang Wu didn't know if social etiquette existed in his master's time during the human empire era, but it objectively existed in his master's era, which is modern times.

Of course, it's also better than my hometown... well, let's not dwell on that.

In short, even immortals cannot avoid this kind of thing; it can even be considered the underlying code of civilization.

In Wang Wu's hometown, there are always people who think that this kind of social etiquette doesn't exist in foreign countries, or that certain places no longer have it. Wang Wu agrees with this view.

As for the truth behind this, perhaps those who simply believe this point haven't reached that threshold. Of course, there are thresholds for interpersonal skills, which is why they feel they lack interpersonal skills.

But compared to this cruel truth, I still agree.

Wang Wu didn't think his hometown had developed to that extent, to the point where interpersonal relationships and nepotism had completely disappeared.

Wang Wu didn't know how long it would take for humanity to reach that point, as he was no longer in his hometown. However, he hoped that day would come sooner.

There was no formal master-disciple relationship between Tianwu and Wang Wu, but having studied under him for so long, he could now be considered Wang Wu's teacher.

Moreover, well, although saying this might be a bit unfair to Master Yin Shenli and Qin Xiang, the teaching level of the First Martial Arts School is indeed... well, it is indeed stronger than those two.

Responsible and professional, although he did not establish a school of thought or work in any education department, his other profession besides being a city civil servant was simply a cook.

However, although the first day of martial arts instruction was quite good, there is a saying that goes, "When God opens a door, he closes a window."

It doesn't matter who said it; what matters is that it's very fitting for the First Martial Artist.

On the first day, Wu's cooking skills were terrible; in this respect, he was not even in the same league as his arch-rival.

The reason why the First Martial Arts recipe isn't selling is also because it's too complicated and written in a confusing way. Even with her exceptional culinary talent, Wu Erniang has only just made over 50% progress in researching the First Martial Arts recipe.

The First Martial Lord hasn't arrived yet, but when the aura of a Celestial Lord spreads throughout this place, it doesn't matter whether he comes or not.

Because the first day's Wu is far from where Wang Wu is now, he has to take a ride-hailing service to get there, which will definitely take some time. However, Wang Wu is now safe and sound and has nothing to worry about.

The oppressive aura on his body vanished instantly, and Wang Wu immediately felt a sense of lightness.

"What? Why aren't you pressing me down anymore? Why aren't you killing me?"

There's a saying, isn't there? "A dog relies on its master's power." "A fox borrows the tiger's might; its face is ugly..."

Well, this is definitely not talking about Wang Wu. Wang Wu is quite tough and never acts like a bully or a dog relying on its master's power. He doesn't take advantage of others and then act innocent or push his luck...

He still couldn't see anyone, nor could he hear any sound. However, he could imagine that the faces of the people responsible for 'judging' him must have turned a deep shade of purplish-red by now.
Just thinking about what they might look like right now filled Wang Wu with immense pleasure, an unbearable, exhilarating feeling.

"Haha, what's wrong? Why aren't you saying anything?" Wang Wu looked around the silent space, a wildly arrogant and smug smile on his face, and continued:

"Aren't you going to put me on trial? Aren't you going to make me admit my guilt? Then let me make this clear: I don't plead guilty, and I don't think I've broken the law."

"So? Do you want to execute me by force?" Wang Wu's taunts went unanswered, and the entire space fell into a deathly silence. But Wang Wu didn't care and continued shouting. After all, if he didn't push his luck now, he might not have another chance when Brother Tianwu arrived.

Although no one paid him any attention, Wang Wu wasn't bored and continued his monologue, spewing insults at everyone. It wasn't until about five minutes later that another voice, besides his, finally rang out in the space.

"Fellow Daoist Wang, Fellow Daoist Wang, are you alright?!"

With an extremely anxious tone, Wang Wu then felt a weight on his back.

Before he could even speak, his mouth was already covered.

As for who came, it certainly wasn't Pei Wuji; their relationship hadn't reached that level yet.

The person who came was Loran, the woman who made Wang Wu abandon his dignity as a man for a cheat device.

Moreover, Wang Wu took the wrong item, which meant he lost out big time.

Right there in front of everyone, Loran seemed to have no inhibitions and frantically expressed her worries and joy to Wang Wu.

Although some of these emotions were insincere, at least most of them were genuine.

After realizing that Wang Wu was not someone they could use to curry favor with the Lin family, or that they didn't need to give the Lin family an explanation for this matter, they naturally sought out Loran in order to appease this cultivator who was also of noble birth.

After learning of Wang Wu's identity, Loran initially considered whether she could help him out, but if not, there was nothing she could do. Without hesitation, she immediately agreed to let the cultivator who had come to inform her arrive and followed him.

Admittedly, Loran had a very good impression of Wang Wu, and could even be described as quite fond of him. When she learned of Wang Wu's accident, her first thought was to help him.

She hesitated only after the other party told her that the person Wang Wu killed was the heir of the Lin family.

Even so, she was still observing, looking for any chance to save Wang Wu from death, after all, it would be a real pity for such a good man to die.

But the Lin family is not a small family, and although her family background is equally illustrious, there is no need for her to cause unpleasantness with the Lin family just for a man.

If the Lin family is willing to give her face, that would be great. But if they're not, there's nothing she can do.

Now that the other party also has a powerful backer, Loran naturally has no more hesitation.

The Lin family has Immortal Emperors, but not many. Wang Wu, on the other hand, has several behind him. Even if he only has one, it would be enough to make him worthy of being courted by the Qionglan Sect.

After all, there are certain conflicts of interest between aristocratic families and sects. Even if they have a good relationship in normal times, when it comes to interests, the conflict between the two may be even greater than that between two sects.

After all, there's a saying: "Two tigers cannot share one mountain."

A sect can be seen as a large aristocratic family, and an aristocratic family that is not under the control of a sect is naturally an enemy.

"I'm so glad you're alright! I'm so glad you're alright!"

After a long while, Luo Lan finally released Wang Wu, her eyes filled with tears, her voice trembling.

Although it was acting, the acting skills were indeed quite good.
