Meanwhile, compared to the Young Master of Medicine King Valley and Zhang Shuheng of Shanghai's Zhang Family's attitude of keeping silent once their minds are made up, the entire Immortal Realm Forum erupted with all sorts of posts in an instant. Barely half an hour after Shen Qiang's post was made, various posts denouncing Long Yan Sword Sect had successfully dominated the page.

"Long Yan Sword Sect is shameless to the core, they came to snatch Xiduo Treasure and failed, then they come here playing the victim to garner sympathy, truly fucking shameless."

"Disgusting, that widow selling vegetable buns for 50 cents each, working from dawn till dusk, barely makes any money, and then Shen Qiang extends a helping hand, and you people from Long Yan Sword Sect actually have the gall to smash her shop? Do you have any humanity left?"

"Dammit, coming to the forum to spout nonsense about Shen Qiang, when you haven't even wiped your own ass clean, and still have the nerve to say others stink."

"Long Yan Sword Sect is beyond shameless, you can never earn all the money in the world no matter how much you try, if you've got the guts then earn it fair and square. Shen Qiang didn't even win against Shanghai's Zhang Family, he's even known in the forum as the King of Demons."

"When you bullied Xiduo Treasure at their doorstep, you didn't realize it was Shen Qiang's, did you? When you went to smash the bun shop, you also didn't think that the recipe was given by Shen Qiang, did you? After facing a loss, you come to the forum to spout all kinds of nonsense, painting yourselves as saints. Why didn't you mention how you've been committing evil when you made your own post?"

"Dammit, do you think it's easy for that widow to run a small bun shop? Her business was just starting to improve, and you go smash the place and steal the recipe? How are you any different from bandits?"

"Aaargh, after reading Shen's post, I'm so angry I could explode, always boasting about being a prestigious sect, but doing such despicable things in secret, then you come here without acknowledging your mistakes, pretending to be all righteous, saying Shen's this and that are wrong."

"What are you trying to do? Next, are you going to use violence against Shen? Try it, damn it. Under the broad heavens, in the light of day, in the Cultivation World, it's not for Long Yan Sword Sect to do whatever they want."

"Shen Qiang is too kind, too good-hearted, if it were me, for assholes like you, I would have taken up my sword and wiped you out long ago."

"Humph, don't you know what you have done? In Cultivation World, indeed those with bigger fists have the truth, but not harming ordinary people is a fundamental rule. Yet after committing actions that embarrass the Cultivation World, you still have the audacity to criticize Shen Qiang? If he kills you, we will all cheer."

"Shameless! I used to believe it to be true, thought Shen Qiang really did all kinds of evil, swindled 15 million from your company? Serves you right! Killing 1500 of you, that would make me happy."

"Exactly, god damn it, I'm so furious, how can you be so shameless? The great Long Yan Sword Sect picking on a widow struggling to survive, if it were me, I'd discipline you too."

"Yeah, Shen Qiang is acting on behalf of heaven!"

"Right, Shen Qiang is a true hero, that phrase 'Shen will never bow his head to anyone' really shows his mettle!"

"A true man should be like this."

"Fucking incredible, refreshing! Scum like Long Yan Sword Sect deserve a lesson! Call me when you mess with them again!"

"Count me in, because my big knife is already itching for action!"

In the forum, the messages were overwhelmingly in support of Shen Qiang.

Watching the Long Yan Sword Sect become a target of universal contempt on the Immortal Realm Forum, Manager Feng was anxious, "Have we contacted the forum's customer service yet?"

A pale-faced youth stood up.

"Manager Feng, we have contacted them, but the forum's customer service said that we created multiple fake accounts to maliciously mislead public opinion. Therefore, all accounts that have logged in from the company's IP address have been banned. They made the decision to ensure fairness and will not change it," the youth reported.

Manager Feng was furious, "So what if our accounts are banned, there's nothing remarkable about that. Tell them to immediately remove Shen's post from the sticky threads. Damn it, with that post stickied, it's like they are parading us naked through the streets. Our Long Yan Sword Sect can't tolerate such an insult!"

The pale-faced youth argued, "Manager Feng, we've already spoken to the forum's customer service. They said that if we can prove the content of Shen's post is fabricated, they will instantly remove the sticky status and delete the post. But if it's true, there's no defamation or slander. Thus, the forum has the right to let everyone know the true situation."

Manager Feng was stunned, slumping down in his chair with a pale face.

Just then, a youth beside him said, "Manager Feng, don't panic. In this situation, we'll need Shen, the original poster, to solve it, since only they can edit or delete their own posts."

Manager Feng's eyes lit up immediately, and he smacked his thigh, "Right, why didn't I think of that." Then he looked at the youth who had spoken and asked, "What's your name? You've done well."

"Wang Di."

Hearing this, the pale-faced youth retorted, "Shen will not take down the post, there's no room for discussion on this matter at all."

The youth who had just been praised, seeing it as a good opportunity to climb the ranks, immediately said, "Nothing is non-negotiable. Everything has its price, and as long as the price is right, no deal is impossible to make."

Manager Feng, with a shrewd look in his eyes, asked Wang Di, "Do you think we can strike a deal with Shen on this matter?"

Wang Di's eyes sparkled as he said, "Shen has risen rapidly, but compared to our company, they are still very small. They absolutely wouldn't want a direct confrontation with us at this point, otherwise, they would have disclosed these issues publicly themselves, instead of passively denying them."

"So, as long as we give the right price and make it profitable for them, they will surely agree to our request and delete their own post."

Manager Feng frowned, "The problem is, what price is right? If we offer Shunhua Company to them, would they agree?"

Wang Di paused before responding, "That's hard to say. Judging by Shen's behavior, they wouldn't agree without a substantial profit. And given Shen's current situation, with more than three hundred breakfast stalls and millions in pure profit a year, it's definitely not enough to sway them."

Hearing this, Manager Feng laughed, "You make a good point. Several million in pure profit is less than what Xiduobao earns from selling a single antique. Shen Qiang surely wouldn't be interested. So, to resolve this issue, the key lies in the fact that Shen's business is too small. They wouldn't want a direct clash with us right now. In that case, if our attitude is strong enough, they will retract their post."

Wang Di raised his eyebrows in surprise, "Manager Feng, don't do that, it will force Shen Qiang to turn hostile on the spot."

Manager Feng stood up with a smile and said, "Turn hostile on the spot? Then he's asking for death!"
