Chapter 3094: Chapter 96: Shocking! The Most Passionate Taoist Master in History (Part 2)

After all, many key figures held shares in the North Shu branch of the Truth Magazine Agency, and Wang Baoguang even specially retained a ten percent share for Taoist Master Taiyang.

And before the magazine officially went on sale, the Saint of Fire Dragon secretly took the initial draft to Taoist Master Taiyang for review. Not only did the Taoist Master not obstruct it, but he was also full of praise.

Unexpectedly, unexpectedly, it turned out that Taoist Master Taichu had such an unknown and secret past.

It is said that the more exciting the better; Taoist Master Taiyang immediately hinted to the Saint of Fire Dragon to properly cooperate with the release of the first issue of the Truth Magazine.

With the full support of the Ice and Fire Dao Sect, the release of the first issue of the North Shu edition of [Truth] magazine was extremely smooth, and it was distributed across various regions of North Shu with no issues. Due to the explosive and hot content, reprinting orders fell like goose feathers in a snowstorm.

It’s not surprising, for the vast majority of cultivators, Taoist level big shots are like being in the clouds, surrounded by countless halos and legends. Ordinary people only dare to discuss them secretly in private; it’s the first time there’s a dedicated magazine vividly gossiping about these big shots’ private and hidden affairs.

The people printing the magazine are not afraid of the Taoists’ retaliation, daring to openly sell it so boldly, they’re just buying a magazine, so what are they afraid of?

With reprinting happening again and again, the sensational situation of the first issue of the North Shu edition [Truth] gradually spread to the sphere of influence of the Purple Cloud Taoist Sect, and eventually even broke into the sphere of influence of the Purgatory Devil Sect and the Blood Sea Devil Sect.

Five years flew by.

In these five years, the sales of [Truth] magazine skyrocketed at a speed unimaginable to most people. Before anyone realized it, the first love story of Taoist Master Taichu spread throughout the North Shu God Continent, becoming a dinner table conversation topic among countless human and non-human races.

However, because of this, the image of Taoist Master Taichu was pulled down from the clouds, becoming much more vivid in the minds of ordinary cultivators, making him feel much more approachable as if he lived among them.

Meanwhile, the Truth Magazine also brought fame to some outstanding senior sisters and senior brothers from the Primordial Taoist Palace, turning them into idols for many young people.

On the seventh year of Wang Baoguang’s arrival at the Ice and Fire Dao Sect, the second issue of the North Shu edition [Truth] was launched as scheduled.

Compared to the first issue, which was hurriedly printed and sold in a rush for time, during the release of the second issue, Wang Baoguang had already established a complete large-scale sales channel and had production bases all over the place, naturally making it much more relaxed.

To prevent supply shortages as in the first release, he had pre-printed a large stockpile before the sale.

The second issue of the North Shu edition [Truth] did not disappoint him. Once released, it created an extremely sensational situation.

Not to mention, the theme of [Truth] second issue was [A Comprehensive Review of the Seven Wives of the War God Marshal Ji Taichang of Dongxia].

Ji Taichang, as the Tranquil Sky Divine King of the Dongxia Divine Dynasty and one of the few Taoist level big shots in the Sacred Domain world, naturally had widespread fame. However, many people didn’t know that Ji Taichang had been married to seven wives throughout his life, and the last wife was even a young Sacred Supreme around 9,000 years old.

With such explosive content, it was hard for the second issue not to be a hit.

In addition, Wang Baoguang continued to expand the production line and increased channel investments continuously. The consistent marketing strategy of Truth Magazine, which adhered to small profits but quick turnover, naturally pushed the sales of the second issue to a new level of frenzy.

In the Ice and Fire Dao Sect, Taoist Master Taiyang looked at a deluxe special edition of [Truth] second issue and allowed himself a rare smile.

Interesting. I’ve long heard Ji Taichang was promiscuous, marrying many wives one after another, but this is the first time someone laid it out clearly one by one.

”Wang Baoguang, this kid has guts,” Taoist Master Taiyang praised, ”I love reading this kind of exposé. Nowadays, there aren’t many who dare to tell the truth.”

After saying this, he gave further orders to continue vigorously promoting the North Shu edition [Truth].

After everyone had left, Taoist Master Taiyang put down the magazine, but the smile on his face gradually faded.

Though Ji Taichang is flirtatious, at least he has wives, unlike me...

His mind wandered, as if seeing that ethereal figure of divine grace and beauty from years ago.

Unconsciously, his figure flickered and he arrived once again at a palace next door, perpetually covered in ice and snow.

In a room filled with formations under the palace, stood an exquisitely crafted but lifeless ice statue of a woman.

This ice sculpture is life-sized, vividly lifelike, with even the folds in the clothing and strands of hair indistinguishable from a real person, at first glance appearing just like someone living.

However, she was entirely composed of transparent solid ice.

A pure origin ice aura emanated endlessly from her body, spreading an extreme chill, covering the entire room with a thick layer of frost, making it appear like an ice and snow world.

Should a cultivator with a lower cultivation base suddenly come here, they might very well be frozen into an ice sculpture by this force.

However, this intense cold presented no impact to Taoist Master Taiyang, who was suffused with a blazing fire rhyme all over his body.

He stood before the ice sculpture, looking up at this lifelike statue, eyes flashing with deep sorrow: ”Ice Rhyme, oh Ice Rhyme, so many years have passed. Yet I still can’t save you.”
