He turned out to be the formidable Chen Anlin!
"Young Master, you can't just accuse someone of plagiarism without evidence," someone said as they cupped their hands toward Chen Anlin.
"Of course I have evidence. The poem he just recited, I've seen it in other ancient texts," Chen Anlin replied with a cold smile directed at Su Cheng. "The real author is Luo Binwang!"
Su Cheng's pupils constricted, and he was completely flustered.
At this moment, if he had tried to argue and stubbornly denied it, Chen Anlin would have had no way to deal with him. However, his earlier failure in composing poetry had already thrown him off balance. With Chen Anlin revealing the true author, Su Cheng thought that Chen Anlin must have some ancient texts on him, which made him panic even more.
[Ding! Su Cheng is questioned by everyone; the plagiarism accusation is exposed, gaining luck points.]
"Well, Su Cheng, so you are a plagiarist! I knew it! You used to be a fool; how could you suddenly become so clever? Did you pick up an ancient book and copy the poems from it?" Su Hu pointed at Su Cheng and cursed.
"No, I didn’t!" Su Cheng panicked and shook his head, trying to defend himself.
Chen Anlin snapped, "Stop denying it! Tell me, where's that ancient book?"
"What ancient book? Don't spout nonsense!" Su Cheng retorted.
"Such ancient texts are treasures of immortals; they must be with you. If you could obtain one, who knows? You might become an immortal yourself," Chen Anlin's words made the crowd's pupils widen in shock.
As they looked at Su Cheng, some people were already filled with murderous intent.
"Kill him and seize the treasure!!!"
"Who are you? Why are you spouting such nonsense?" Su Cheng glared at Chen Anlin, but inside he was in a state of panic. He knew that the page of golden text was currently hidden within his dantian.
If someone really set their sights on him, it would spell trouble.
At this moment, he could only lament his foolishness. Had he known this would happen, he wouldn't have tried to show off by coming here to compete in poetry. He should have just kept a low profile and developed himself quietly instead of acting so arrogantly.
In his previous life, he was merely an internet troll, completely ignorant of poetry and uninterested in understanding it. Before he crossed over, he was in his basement, eating instant noodles while arguing with someone online about how terrible the country was. Even if he had to go abroad to beg for food and eat donuts, he had no desire to stay there.
Then, one careless moment led to a disaster—he spilled his noodles, and the broth seeped into his keyboard, causing him to get electrocuted! Just like that, he found himself in this new world.
He had initially thought he could flaunt his newfound knowledge from a golden book, but unexpectedly, just a few days later, he found himself in trouble.
Chen Anlin scoffed, "If you want to prove that I’m talking nonsense, just let someone check. That ancient book might very well be on you!"
"Indeed," Su Hu said with a cold smile as he approached. "Su Cheng, why not let them check?"
Others around them also exchanged glances and began to close in on Su Cheng. The commotion drew the attention of people from other parts of the city as well. After some inquiries, everyone learned that there was a guy who had actually obtained an ancient book.
Seeing the situation deteriorate, Su Cheng turned to flee.
"Su Cheng, you are from the Su family; where do you think you're running off to?" Su Hu charged after him.
However, Su Cheng's speed was astonishing. In a flash, he vanished from sight, leaving behind only a trace of scholarly energy.
"With his cultivation level, he can't have gone far," Su Hu remarked.
Chen Anlin suggested, "Perhaps he hasn't run far at all; he might just be hiding his presence among the crowd."
Chen Anlin could sense where Su Cheng was hiding. Not far away by the riverside, there were lanterns floating on the water amidst a large crowd!
That was why he chose to hide there; for the time being, no one would notice him.
Taking Chen Anlin's advice seriously, Su Hu immediately notified his family.
"Su Cheng has obtained an ancient immortal's golden book and has now defected!!"
In just a few words, this revelation summoned the ancestors of the Su family.
Boom!
The air vibrated with intensity. A powerful presence arrived amidst countless astonished gazes.
The figure was a middle-aged man who, upon reaching Su Hu, spoke in a calm tone, "Is this true?"
Su Hu quickly recounted the events that had just transpired, then added, "Ancestor, I've sensed something was off with Su Cheng for a while now. He used to be foolish beyond belief, but recently he seems like a completely different person. He must have obtained something from an immortal!"
The eyes of the Su family ancestor narrowed; the mention of an immortal's possession was of great significance. This young man couldn't have gone far; he might just be hiding among the crowd.
The Su family ancestor called out to the surroundings, "Su Cheng, show yourself! I promise I won't harm you; in fact, I will reward you if you do!"
At that moment, the crowd began to take notice of the voice and turned their attention toward the Su family ancestor.
In a corner, Su Cheng was hiding, his body stiff with fear, too afraid to move. He had secretly donned a pale, unremarkable human mask and was trying to appear curious as he glanced around.
Seeing no one step forward, the Su family ancestor coldly snorted to himself, "Su Cheng, I know you're nearby. Don't think that hiding in the crowd will keep me from finding you. Show yourself and I guarantee you'll be safe."
"I don't believe a word of it; that old coot is up to no good," Su Cheng cursed inwardly.
He was also growing increasingly anxious. This situation couldn't continue; how could he have guessed so accurately that he would be here? Damn it! Why did they have to pick on him? It wasn't fair!
"Su Cheng, it seems you are asking for trouble!" The expression of the Su family ancestor darkened further.
Just then, another powerful figure approached, stepping onto the water's surface.
Upon seeing this person, Chen Anlin narrowed his eyes; it was Elder Mo Lin from the Carefree Sect.
"This Su Cheng stole my sect's treasure; I must find him!" Mo Lin said coldly.
The expression of the Su family ancestor changed dramatically before he barked back, "This is a matter concerning my Su family; what business do you have here from the Carefree Sect?"
"You should have managed your own people better. Since he has stolen from my sect, he should be prepared to face our pursuit," Mo Lin replied without hesitation.
