Chapter 275

~7 min read 1,214 words

"Mom, I'm heading out."

Liu Xiaoli, who was clearing the dishes, felt complicated upon hearing her daughter say this.

"Yifei, wait a moment."

Liu Xiaoli shook her hands and grabbed her daughter's arm.

"I'm asking you, tell me clearly, did Xu Feng agree to give you that role?"

It was no wonder Liu Xiaoli was worried; the current Liu Yifei looked exactly like a lonely girl being gaslit by a scumbag.

Oh my, come to think of it, Xu Feng's attitude toward Liu Yifei now really did have that gaslighting vibe.

It was the kind of using extreme language to frantically deny a girl's self-worth and beauty.

Causing her to develop self-doubt.

And then, at such a moment, appropriately giving rewards, showing a feeling of "only I understand you in this world."

Gaslighting is basically this routine.

And now, what Xu Feng was playing with Liu Yifei, or rather, with the mother and daughter, was this routine.

He looked down from the bottom of his heart on Liu Yifei, who had flopped in the film industry for six or seven years while still calling herself a film actress.

Originally, when Xu Feng first started filming "Bleach", he intended to give his Linger sister a hand.

Who told her not to appreciate it?

Xu Feng wasn't the type to stick his hot face to a cold butt either.

Afterward, his attitude toward Liu Yifei became increasingly impolite, even often showing an annoyed attitude.

And while Xu Feng was dominating the field, Liu Yifei had experienced two consecutive film flops.

Naturally, she would start to doubt her own value, especially with Xu Feng as a bug-like point of comparison.

In this situation, when Xu Feng suddenly gave Liu Yifei a sweet date, saying "I'm considering you for the female lead in my next movie."

A perfect gaslighting chain was formed.

However, Xu Feng stated that he really wasn't gaslighting Liu Yifei; he truly looked down on her box-office appeal.

And there was another very important point.

That is, those gaslighting scumbags' techniques were just routines, using those broken things packaged in social media posts to fool girls who hadn't seen the world.

But Xu Feng was different; he was the genuine King of the domestic entertainment film industry.

With a slight flick of his finger, he could directly shatter the girl's already fragile self-esteem...

"No, but he said he was willing to give me a chance, so I need to go to the set more to learn."

Liu Yifei had an expression of taking it for granted.

"... Then Mom will go with you."

Liu Xiaoli really felt more and more that Liu Yifei was being gaslit the more she looked at her.

"Xu Feng said if I bring you, I'm not allowed on set."

Liu Yifei pouted.

Liu Xiaoli's eyes widened.

Good guy, he wasn't giving any face at all.

Another week later, the latest two episodes of "Stardust Crusaders" arrived.

From the old JoJo fans who had been following since "Phantom Blood" to the new viewers who had jumped in last week and spent the week catching up on the previous dozens of episodes.

When they clicked in, their fingers were trembling.

After experiencing the tragic deaths of Avdol and Iggy last week.

They were truly worried about who Xu Feng was going to stab with a knife this week.

Title—"DIO's World"

When they saw this title, the viewers' hearts skipped a beat.

Finally here, was it?

The final battle!

And as Polnareff climbed the stairs toward the third floor.

The viewers who had been struggling to follow for over twenty episodes finally saw the true face of DIO in this installment.

Even though it was played by the same actor, even Xu Feng's old fans probably wouldn't be able to tell without looking closely.

Compared to Jotaro, who had an Eastern appearance and thick eyebrows and big eyes.

DIO, with his golden hair and scarlet, narrow eyes, appeared even more evil and charming, and that iconic hip-thrusting movement added a trace of eerie yet strangely fitting bewitching beauty to the character.

Under the enhancement of the dim special effects and the terrifying background atmosphere, he was truly like an emperor from the abyss!

If one had to say what similarities he had with Jotaro, also played by Xu Feng.

It was probably only those muscles that felt like they were about to burst through his clothes.

"Hehe~ I'll give you a chance; as long as you step back two stairs, I'll take you back as a companion. Conversely, if you think you have too much life, go ahead and come up."

Xu Feng displayed his perfect acting skills, showcasing the charm of the brand-new DIO—who had completely evolved into the savior of the wicked, unlike the small-time thug from the first generation who only thought about fighting for inheritance—vividly in front of the viewers.

And facing DIO's mockery, Polnareff didn't show the slightest fear, lifting his leg and taking a step upward.

Hum—

However, a strange sound effect flashed by.

Before Polnareff realized what had happened, DIO's sneering sarcasm came again:

"Saying one thing and doing another, Polnareff; as expected, you still want to be my companion, DIO's companion?"

Polnareff subconsciously looked down at his feet.

He was surprised to find that not only had he not moved forward, but he had actually stepped back two steps.

"Ho, how is that possible!? I, I clearly walked upward—"

In astonishment, Polnareff ran upward again.

Hum—

However, accompanied by that strange sound effect again, the viewers also saw the screen seem to stutter for a split second.

Immediately, Polnareff, who had just taken two steps, returned to his original spot.

"Th, this, could this be DIO's Stand... 【The World】!?"

He had finally overcome his fear of DIO.

But such an eerie and unpredictable Stand ability still made Polnareff break out in a cold sweat.

And such an eerie and terrifying ability immediately triggered heated discussions among netizens.

【What kind of ability is this? Could it be controlling the stairs?】

【The one above, please be serious; controlling the stairs, what the hell.】

【Could it be an illusion? Kyoka Suigetsu?】

【You're watching the wrong show; Kyoka Suigetsu is out, why don't you say it's Ryujin Jakka?】

【Xu Feng's acting is truly amazing; two completely opposite characters played without any sense of incongruity.】

【To be honest, isn't DIO being a bit arrogant? I feel like at this time he could completely kill Polnareff before he figures out his ability.】

【I'm a bit worried now that DIO will die from arrogance; although Polnareff's Stand is a blank slate, don't underestimate him; wasn't the weakness of Cream also discovered by Polnareff?】

After witnessing Polnareff's potential, DIO was still determined to take him under his command.

Old JoJo fans who had followed from the first part also clearly felt that DIO was becoming more and more charming.

No wonder he could be called the "Savior of the Wicked."

"Cut the crap, DIO! I'm someone who has died once! Even if I'm going to die, I'll figure out your Stand ability before I do!"

Polnareff tried to cover his inner fear with a roar, summoning Silver Chariot to charge at him.

"Then it can't be helped; go die, Polnareff." ===== CHAPTER 277 =====
