Chapter 973 Jiang Shan's End

The next day, the People's Daily published the interview with the title [Tianlong Era] as Chen Suifeng said. After this incident, the past of the post-The Legend of the Condor Heroes era has become a consensus. Some people even dug up the picture of Luoyang speaking at the martial arts discussion meeting and added a spoof text:

"I'm not targeting anyone, I'm saying that everyone here is a loser."

Faced with the ridicule of some netizens, the domestic martial arts masters were naturally embarrassed, but soon everyone's attention was attracted by another thing. In early March, Jiangshan, a martial arts master in Longguo, suddenly announced that he would stop writing -

A stone stirred up a thousand waves!

You know, Jiangshan has been writing for decades since his debut. Although the development of martial arts has made this veteran martial arts master somewhat unable to find his own position, his influence is still not comparable to that of ordinary martial arts masters!

For a time, all major martial arts forums were filled with regretful voices

In addition to regret, some people put the blame on Luoyang. A netizen who claimed to be a fan of Jiangshan for decades angrily pointed out: "Jiangshan stopped writing because of Luoyang's dominance. If it weren't for the aggressiveness of this martial arts emperor, how could Jiangshan, who had just finished writing "Dominating the Universe", choose to stop writing?"

Don't say it, this kind of speech has a market.

Luoyang felt like he was shot even when he was lying down. He obviously respected veteran writers like Jiangshan in his heart, but in the eyes of some people, he became the culprit who forced Jiangshan to stop writing. He accidentally played a powerful role.

And Jiangshan, who announced that he would stop writing, became the weak party.

Luoyang didn't say much about this. Many times, explanations are useless. There are always people who like to use their subjective thoughts to speculate on the so-called "facts" that do not exist at all. Fortunately, this kind of rumor has a weak vitality. A week later, when Luoyang and Yao Chongjing and others attended Jiangshan's closing ceremony as friends in the circle, the rumors were broken by themselves, especially when Luoyang shook hands with Jiangshan, everyone became even more unconvinced of some rumors on the Internet.

Reporters took photos frantically and recorded this scene.

"I'm sorry, my decision to stop writing has caused some bad influence on Luoyang. In fact, I am a close friend of Luoyang in private. I once revealed to Luoyang that I would stop writing after writing another work. Luoyang disdained to explain these things, but I have to say a few more words. Although there is a certain competitive relationship between Luoyang and me, this competition is benign. It is not as some people speculate that I stopped writing because of Luoyang..."

Jiangshan shook hands with Luoyang and did not forget to explain for Luoyang.

Only then did people realize that Mr. Jiangshan's temples were already gray. The years had left countless traces on this veteran martial arts master. Considering his age, his decision to stop writing was not abrupt at all.

Luoyang couldn't help but sigh and was even moved.

This was a senior who loved martial arts and even devoted more than half of his life to martial arts. His cessation of writing made Luoyang feel inexplicably sad.

...

The ceremony of stopping writing continued.

Some of Jiangshan's friends came on stage one by one to shake hands with Jiangshan.

After Luoyang stepped down, he found that Gu Miao had also come to the scene today. This martial arts genius who he had discovered had been wearing a hat and sitting in the last row today. He was very low-key and seemed to be hiding something.

"What are you thinking about? You are not blaming yourself, are you?"

Yao Chongjing, who was sitting on the right side of Luoyang, noticed Luoyang's abnormality and couldn't help but speak.

Luoyang smiled and said, "I can't say I blame myself, but I have some reasons for Jiangshan's retirement. Some people on the Internet blame me, but it's not entirely wrong."

"If I stop writing, I guess you will also be blamed."

"It's understandable that Jiangshan stopped writing. You are in your prime, why do you stop writing?"

Luoyang rolled his eyes at Yao Chongjing. He has a really good relationship with Jiangshan and Yao Chongjing. Today's handshake with Jiangshan is not just a show. They know this very well.

"Tell me your evaluation of "The Universe"?"

Yao Chongjing asked with a smile, not paying attention to Luoyang's rolling eyes.

"A work that is almost as good as the Condor Heroes trilogy. To be honest, this book is beyond my expectation. It's not that I underestimate you, but I didn't expect you to unify your writing style so well. I almost capsized."

"Is this a compliment?"

"Of course, do I have to flatter you?"

Yao Chongjing curled his lips slightly: "No, I really thought I had a chance to beat you, but the appearance of "The Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils" gave me a wake-up call. It seems that we are pushed forward by the times, and you are also growing up."

Luoyang said: "This is my limit."

Yao Chongjing was not surprised. As a famous martial arts writer, after reading "The Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils", he really found it hard to imagine any other work that could surpass it. But after hearing Luoyang say this, he couldn't help feeling sad: "Is the future of Dragon Country martial arts really inevitable to be neglected?"

Luoyang thought of the decline of martial arts in his previous life and smiled bitterly.

"Maybe we can survive in another way, but the decline of traditional martial arts is inevitable. This is not just for you and me, I believe that all the dozens of martial arts masters in Longguo know it well."

"I advise you to cherish your youth, cherishing the present is the most important thing..."

Yao Chongjing curled his lips. He was naturally free and easy. He suddenly felt that he didn't need to think so much. Even Luoyang couldn't do anything about it, so what could he do?

He said, "The man in green shirt and sword in your magazine is very interesting."

Luoyang didn't expect Yao Chongjing's thinking to be so jumpy. He said, "Why, you are competitive again?"

Luoyang also understood Yao Chongjing's character. He was a very competitive person. The thing he hated most in his life was failure.

Yao Chongjing smiled and said, "Fighting with others is endless fun. Since I can't beat you, why not compete with this one? Boss Luo, how about I join your "Jianghu" magazine? I just finished writing "Dominate the Universe" and I feel that I have made some progress. At the same time, I also have new ideas. It depends on whether you are willing to give me "Jianghu" as a test field."

Luoyang was stunned when he heard this.

Then, there was a surprise. He was very clear about Yao Chongjing's strength.

The magazine "Jianghu" under Shuimu Culture has been relying on "Grave Robbers' Chronicles" and "The Four Famous Detectives" for the time being. To outsiders, it seems that Luoyang and Qingshan Zhanjian are playing a role, but Luoyang knows that he is alone from beginning to end, and he will get tired after a long time.

So Luoyang readily agreed.

He smiled and said, "Welcome to join the Shuimu family. I believe Qingshan Zhanjian also welcomes you. By the way, I can also tell you a piece of news. Qingshan Zhanjian's next book has two protagonists!"
