Chapter 101

"Holy crap! This is live audio, no special effects at all!"

"It’s actually pure, raw sound?! I thought I’d misheard just now..."

"First: self-cultivation, then: a sonic boom? Are you f***ing kidding me?!?!?!"

"This guy talks about science, but then he does things that leave us completely baffled!"

A sonic boom—that’s the sound produced only when an object exceeds the speed of sound!

In the past, the most common example everyone knew was the loud 'crack' made by snapping a whip.

But never in a million years did they expect Ye Xuan, clearly empty-handed, to produce a sonic boom!

Just how fast must his speed be?!

At this moment, not only the netizens in the livestream but even the staff from the Bureau of Culture and Tourism were staring in stunned silence.

Good heavens!

Isn't this the kind of scene that only appears in Wu Xia novels?!

How did it just appear out of thin air with Ye Xuan?!

What happened to the 'self-cultivation' he promised?

This is pure bluffing, right?!

Once Ye Xuan slowly finished his movements and stood back in front of the camera, countless questions flooded the chat.

"What kind of fist technique is this?"

"Ye Xuan, tell me quickly, or I won't spare you!"

"The guy above is digging his own grave!"

"This technique is amazing. This kid can box, he can use light-body skills, is there anything he can't do?! [Crying]"

Noticing many netizens asking about the technique, Ye Xuan didn't hide it and answered frankly.

"This is Taiji Fist, created by Zhang Sanfeng."

He thought this would clear up everyone's confusion, but once Ye Xuan said this, it only sparked more questions.

"??????"

"Who the heck is Zhang Sanfeng?"

"Just got back from Baidu, Baidu doesn't have this person!"

"You above, are you a tentacle monster? How are you so fast?!"

"So the question is, who is this big shot Zhang Sanfeng?!"

Seeing the string of confusion and bewilderment, Ye Xuan realized what was happening.

It seems Zhang Sanfeng does not exist in this world.

Taiji Fist is also an original creation in this world.

Narrowing his eyes slightly, Ye Xuan slowly added.

"Zhang Sanfeng is a character in my new book, *The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber*."

As soon as the words left his mouth, it was like cold water hitting hot oil; the livestream chat exploded instantly.

"Holy crap! A new book?! Then who is Zhang Sanfeng?! And what was up with that Taiji Fist just now?!"

"How did the Taiji Fist from your novel end up on you?! You can actually use the martial arts from your own novels, right?! [Shocked]"

"Surrender quickly, what kind of peerless martial art is this Taiji Fist?! Can it beat the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms?!"

"Just popping in to say, I want to learn Taiji Fist too, I want to throw a sonic boom punch!"

Many netizens were still immersed in the shock of Ye Xuan's Taiji demonstration.

Others, suffering from a book drought, were secretly excited.

Another new book?!

Has this dog author finally started a new book?!

"The dog author is finally not being a dog, congratulations, this is worth celebrating!"

"So the question is, when will it be released?!"

"That book *The Return of the Condor Heroes* had 900,000 words, didn't you finish it in three months?! Get the next book out ASAP!"

... "473" ...

Seeing a stream of netizens urging him to release the book and asking for details about Zhang Sanfeng and Taiji Fist, Ye Xuan chuckled.

"I already have the concept. Who Zhang Sanfeng is and what Taiji Fist is, you'll know when you read it."

"As for when it'll be released, I'm not the same 'me' as back then, so take it easy!"

This meant that everyone should just keep waiting.

Many netizens heard this, and the same thought popped into everyone's mind.

Still can't out-troll you!

Teasing our appetites again and making us wait!

The dog author has returned to the scene, someone come and beat him up!

"Confirmed by the look in his eyes, even a dog is better than you!"

"Dog: I'm a real dog, but Ye Xuan is definitely not human!"

"A dog is still a dog, but some people aren't human!"

"The dog's grievance: I didn't provoke any of you, why compare me to Ye Xuan?!"

"Sorry to the guy above, I laughed so hard I got rich!"

The livestream continued with a lively atmosphere, and soon the netizens began to let their true natures run wild.

After all, where else could they catch Ye Xuan, a man who had retired from the internet?!

Now that this guy was rarely livestreaming, they had to seize the opportunity!

Because of this, the questions from the netizens were all sorts of things.

"Ye Xuan, what have you been doing lately?"

"Do you have any troubles after retiring from the industry?"

"Yeah, what is the biggest trouble for a Nobel Prize winner?"

"Is life just pure bliss?!"

"A high school student asks weakly, when are you returning to the entertainment industry? The Chinese exam questions for next year's college entrance exam won't be written by you, right? [Cracking]"

"Hugs to the front row! I laughed so hard in the middle of the night my mom asked why my face was twitching [Facepalm]..."

As the comments flew by, Ye Xuan caught a few netizens asking what his troubles were, narrowed his eyes slightly, and blurted out.

"Regarding the affirmation of the Nobel Prize, I also give it my full affirmation."

"The biggest trouble, of course, is being too popular."

As soon as this was said, countless netizens in the livestream were stunned.

Then, everyone subconsciously doubted their own ears.

Too popular?!

Is this even human language?

The audience in the livestream immediately typed a string of question marks.

"??????"

"What did I just hear?! Say that again if you dare!"

"Brother, do you have to be this 'Versailles' (humble-bragging)!"

"Which celebrity dares to say that [Stunned]"

"Damn it! He showed off again! I want that kind of trouble too!"

At this moment, not only were countless netizens watching the livestream, but many celebrity influencers were as well.
