Global Demon Transformation.

Chapter 22 Jianghu News Agency

On campus.

On the rooftop of a school building, three boys and one girl were sitting.

They sat cross-legged in a circle, with some lunchboxes, drinks and snacks casually placed in front of them.

"Brother Fan, what should we do?"

The speaker was a girl with a bowl cut. She was on the chubby side, not very tall, and not particularly pretty, at most just a little cute. She put down the chocolate cake she had taken a bite of and said with concern.

The person he called Brother Fan was a teenager. He had an ordinary appearance, an ordinary height, and an ordinary hairstyle.

If you had to pinpoint one distinctive feature, it would be that his features are somewhat delicate, giving him an extremely innocent appearance, as if teasing him would make him blush and feel shy.

"Damn it."

But this seemingly blushing boy was eating heartily while cursing, "What bad luck! How did I end up with that mad dog?"

"Brother Fan, why don't we ask someone to talk to them?"

One of the freckled boys suggested.

"Yes, let's ask Brother Xiao to mediate. We were the ones who notified him in time last time, which saved him from a disaster. He owes us a favor. He has a good relationship with Ji Yu. With his help, this matter might be resolved."

The woman with the pot lid quickly chimed in.

Yang Fan did not respond to his partner's suggestion, put down the lunchbox, and lost his appetite.

At noon after school, he happened to go to the back mountain and saw Yage and Lin Feng chatting.

Seeing that the two looked a little off, he instinctively possessed his spirit and used the innate abilities of the Sound-Seeking Beast, combined with his oral communication skills, to learn that the two had broken up.

Such explosive news is not something to be enjoyed by one person alone. In the spirit of sharing happiness, Yang Fan "accidentally" revealed it while chatting with his classmates.

In his view, this was just an extremely sensational piece of gossip, not much different from the hundreds of other gossips he spread throughout the year.

He could predict the sensation this gossip would cause, after all, the female lead this time was the most high-profile.

Although he was passionate about gossip, Yang Fan was also a smart man; he knew which people he shouldn't mess with.

He never provokes those who are more powerful than him.

In his view, Lin Feng and Ya Ge did not fall into this category.

Although Lin Feng is stronger than him, there is no need to worry. As a classmate, based on his understanding of Lin Feng, even if Lin Feng is unhappy, he will not make a move against him.

As for Ya Ge, who was dumped, although she joined the Juxing Club and showed signs of soaring to great heights, it was just a formality. Not long after, they graduated from high school and no one knew each other anymore.

It's impossible for someone to hold a grudge for so long, it's not like it's some deep-seated hatred.
But no matter how much he planned, he never expected that he would provoke Ji Yu.

Yang Fan felt like he had stepped in poop.

Although he and Ji Yu were not in the same class, they would sometimes greet each other when they met.

For several years in a row, his father took him to visit Ji Yu's family to pay New Year's greetings.

In his view, although he and Ji Yu were not brothers, they were still friends.

But to everyone's surprise, Ji Yu, who had nothing to do with this matter, actually threatened to tear his mouth apart because of jealousy, or perhaps not even jealousy, but just to show off in front of Ya Ge.

“It’s no use. Even if Ah Xiao is willing to help, Ji Yu won’t care about his feelings. Ah Xiao wouldn’t dare to offend Ji Yu either. Since he’s already made the promise, he’ll definitely take action.”

Yang Fan immediately rejected their suggestions.

He knows Ji Yu better than anyone else; that guy is an idiot.

Although he appears refined, he is a degenerate, or more accurately, a beast.

Over the years, countless female students have dropped out of school because of him, and countless people have been bullied by him for all sorts of bizarre reasons.

He could break someone's legs if he disliked a single look or even their walking posture.

"Why don't we let our families handle it?" another boy suggested.

"No."

Yang Fan refused outright without any hesitation.

Although his father owned a company with assets exceeding one billion yuan and was somewhat well-known in Jiangcheng, it couldn't compare to Ji Yu's Yunhai Group. In fact, many of their businesses relied on the support of the Yunhai Group. This was why his father took him to visit Ji Yu's family for the New Year every year.

To put it bluntly, his father needed to curry favor with the Ji family; the two were not equals at all.

Furthermore, there is an unspoken rule among students: they cannot involve adults in conflicts.

Even if an adult intervenes and Ji Yu has some reservations, she might stop bothering him, but the retaliation afterward could be much more severe.

For that kind of idiot, saving face is the most important thing.

Besides this reason, the more important one is that Yang Fan didn't want to ask his father for help.

His martial arts aptitude is very poor. Even with the help of resources, he is only at the fifth level of body cultivation.

Although they became spirit masters, in everyone's eyes, second-tier sound-seeking beasts were useless spirits, and few martial artists would refine such auxiliary spirits.

He was very poor at developing his talents; he was the worst among his siblings.

His father didn't think much of him either, and their relationship wasn't good. He didn't want to go to his father about this.

That would only bring disappointment and prove that you are indeed a useless person.

He started his own club in his first year of high school, frequently organizing gatherings with his saved allowance, and maintaining his informants day after day. He did all this in order to achieve something after graduation and gain his father's approval.

He wanted to prove that even if he wasn't good at martial arts, he was definitely no worse than anyone else.

"How about we take care of those things?"

"Pot lid hair," he said quietly, but didn't finish.

"Shut up!" Yang Fan scolded.

The three people in front of him were not only his partners, but also members of his Jianghu News Agency.

The Jianghu News Club was a club he founded in his first year of high school.

Where there are people, there is a world of its own; where there is a world of its own, there is news. This is the origin of the name "Jianghu News Agency".

Yang Fan knew from junior high school that he was not very talented, but he was proud and did not think he was worse than anyone else.

Even without the necessary qualifications, he was determined to carve out his own niche.

The Jianghu News Agency was the starting point for him to realize his ambitions.

At Jiangxin No.1 Middle School, nobody knew about this club, which had only four members, including Yang Fan.

Aside from him, the three people in front of him were all talents he had selected from among thousands of Jiangxin Middle School students. Although their martial arts talents were all average, Yang Fan believed that they might achieve something extraordinary in the future.

The Jianghu News Agency, including him, has only four core members, but each of them has more than a dozen informants under their command. Very few things that happen at Jiangxin No.1 Middle School can be kept from their eyes and ears.

Everyone knows that Ji Yu, that idiot, has done too many lousy things.

If this evidence were posted online, it could not only get Ji Yu fired, but could even send him to jail, and could also affect Ji Yu's father's Yunhai Group.

"Don't even think like that, that's courting death!" Yang Fan warned everyone with a stern look.

This is a small matter; at most, I'll get a beating, but it's not that serious.

If Ji Yu's scandal were to break at this time, it would be obvious that he was behind it without any investigation.

This scandal won't bring down Yunhai Group. In the end, not only will he be in trouble, but his family will also be implicated.

As the president of the Jianghu News Agency, Yang Fan, though only a senior in high school and not yet truly in the workforce, has witnessed too much darkness.

He deeply understood one principle: never truly provoke a large corporation, or they will instantly bare their fangs and devour you.

"What should I do?"

The woman with the pot lid lay on the ground, saying helplessly.

"When soldiers come, we'll block them; when water comes, we'll dam it. I'm leaving."

Yang Fan got up, patted his butt and left. The other three exchanged helpless glances and followed in his footsteps.
