Master Bai! This Celestial Fox Spirit Is Asking For Divorce Chapter 74: Episode 7.2 Crawling Karma

It was human nature to be in awe in the face of strength and power.

This is true in this ogaverse world, where society comprises individuals with overwhelming power. High-level awakeners (regardless of their vocation) are the subject of admiration no matter where they go. They enjoyed a good reputation even with just plain breathing.

But for the hunters who dived through the dungeons and fought hard against the monsters that could potentially threaten humanity, the public treated them like they were celebrities.

They amassed a considerable number of fans in the crowd. If they are active on social dia, it is natural to see their profile with thousands and sotis millions of followers.

These days, it isn’t a surprise to see the face of a hunter on billboards advertising a phone, car, or even a toothpaste brand. Even inhibitors have their hunter ambassador speaking for their brand, and they gain millions of money for doing it.

Being a hunter is undoubtedly the most lucrative job in this era, and it is a popular career choice among young, awakened individuals.

Hunters earn a massive chunk of cash every ti they enter a dungeon, and if they have spare ti, they could grab a side job in advertising. Isn’t that a dream job?

However, just like any advantages, it isn’t just about the pros. It cos with so cons.

One of which is hunters and awakeners enjoying celebrity status must have a squeaky-clean image. They shouldn’t be involved in any corruption, and they are expected to have a strong moral compass.

With just one wrong move, their reputation and celebrity status will turn into shambles. They will bleed money because of one exposed misdeanor.

That’s why the guilds who are indirectly benefiting in lots of ways from this side of the business are very careful in creating and maintaining the public persona of their hunters.

The Huangjin Guild, which currently sits in the top five in Country C, is the biggest guild known for their commitnt to such a sche. A considerable portion of their rich resources cos from these advertising gigs.

They used this thod to make up for the lack of S-Class hunter in their guild, and it was proven to be effective, seeing how they managed to stay afloat in the list of top guilds.

But this is only until the news of the altercation between Bai Tingfeng, Shen Yuan, and their top hunter, Zhou Kai appeared in the news programs and the trending topic on the country’s leading social networking site, W.

Lin Yilin tremblingly put down her phone and looked at the bandaged and plastered alpha across her table.

She tried hard to calm down, but she just simply couldn’t after seeing all kinds of negative comnts on social dia.

How could she calm down when their top hunter that they are using as front is currently facing multiple lawsuits, and one of them was an attempted assault on a senior citizen?

Now, her emails are bombarded by their investors and partners requesting to cancel the contract. Or if the other is a little kinder, demanding her to fix this ss quickly.

She could almost see the amount of money slipping out of his hands.

Millions.

After years of fighting for their family’s legacy, the Huangjin Guild, Lin Yilin, feels like she is on the verge of lting down.

"What the fuck did you do, Hunter Zhou?! Is your brain still existing in that damn skull of yours?"

In the end, Lin Yilin couldn’t help but vent the stress building up inside her.

On the other hand, Zhou Kai could only sit stiffly. Eyes flaming with unspeakable hatred.

"Shen Yuan manipulated into doing it," he said.

But Lin Yilin is not having it. She angrily rested her back on her leather swivel chair and cocked her sharp eyebrow at him.

"Is this the part where you are saying that Shen Yuan entered inside your head and made you see things?"

Zhou Kai could sense the blatant disbelief in his guild master’s expression. It made him so mad that he just wanted to bash her face so he couldn’t see that annoying expression. Unlucky for him, all his upper limbs had casts on them. Each of his movents is like self-harming because of the bone-numbing pain that he is feeling.

"How many tis do I have to tell you that half of the CCTV and those fuckers eyewitness account is not real?! Shen Yuan provoked first, and I bit back at him. That’s what happened! You knew that he could cast illusions. So, you need to believe that he tampered with everything using his powers!"

"You are a psycho," Lin Yilin shook her head. "Illusion may sound overpowered, but in reality, it isn’t that much of a controlled ability. You can’t select the people who could see the illusions once cast. Everyone will see it because illusions are made to deceive your bare eyes and not ss with your head!"

"Do you think Shen Yuan is a ghost? A demonic spirit or so sort or a deity?"

Lin Yilin’s words are like a hard slap on Zhou Kai’s cheeks. He knew it now. No one would believe any of his words.

And as he reached this realization, his hatred towards everyone and the situation grew. At the sa ti, a tiny bud of fear towards Shen Yuan sprouted deep inside him. It blended well with his obsession to hate the damned platinum-haired oga.

Lin Yilin saw that Zhou Kai was not in the state to argue anymore. She could only sigh.

"This is the last straw I could ever give you in this lifeti, so you better cherish it. I will sanction you with a year-long suspension after you issue your public apology. That much ti should be enough to sort everything on your end."

"No! You can’t suspend like that!"

"You can’t argue with that, Hunter Zhou! That is barely a slap on the wrist, so either you take it or you’re fired," Lin Yilin firmly said. "You know we both need each other, so please don’t make it harder for us."

Regardless of the mistake made by Zhou Kai, he is still the strongest A-Class awakener in Country C. Huangjin Guild couldn’t afford to lose such an asset.

Besides, at the edge of Lin Yilin’s mind, she partially believed Zhou Kai’s claim. It could be a different power or a more powerful illusion. She isn’t sure.

Shen Yuan was known to be elusive and tricky in dealing with his enemies in the first place.

"Fucking life!" Zhou Kai angrily stood up and left the Guild Master’s office.

But before Zhou Kai could exit, Lin Yilin suddenly asked.

"Wait, did Shen Yuan say anything to you? Like, did he threaten you with sothing?"

Zhou Kai didn’t even turn around.

"Why does it matter anyway? I will train myself to beco stronger. Stronger than that bitch of an oga."

Zhou Kai exited the room with heavy footsteps.

anwhile, Lin Yilin has goosebumps in her arms.

Lin Yilin knew that at this point, Shen Yuan would not stop until he finally taught Zhou Kai a lesson.

And she couldn’t be farther from the truth.

At this ti, Shen Yuan is currently on his way to et a very familiar person who would help him fulfill his promise to Zhou Kai.

"Is this the place?" Shen Yuan asked the mont their car stopped in a lone bungalow house.

It was located in the suburbs where most new subdivisions are springing.

The celestial fox spirit took a deep breath and murmured, smiling, "Yeah, this should be. I could still sll the stench that was so familiar to . The sll of burnt hair."

Then, all of a sudden, the side of his door suddenly opened.

"I can’t sll the stench you’re talking about," said Bai Tingfeng.

The sly fox spirit smirked. "Well, that’s because you’re not . By the way, good job acting like my assistant. Are you enjoying it?" He teased Bai Tingfeng.

Ever since this stubborn male lead said that he would make Shen Yuan fall in love with him, he’s been posing like a true gentleman.

Not that he disliked it, but he is enjoying it instead. His vanity was well-fed, knowing that a handso man was waiting for him.

Bai Tingfeng had a small smile playing on his lips. "Just fine. At least it’s not boring."

Shen Yuan rolled his eyes as he exited the car, "Whatever."

He approached the house with big strides and pressed the doorbell multiple tis.

The celestial fox spirit bombed the house with successive doorbells.

"You can speak in front of the box, you know," Bai Tingfeng pointed out, slightly feeling sorry for the person living in the house.

"Don’t worry, he won’t feel bad. It’s your house anyway," Shen Yuan cheekily responded. "He will co out any second now."

True to his words, the gate creaked, and an ordinary-looking alpha male ca out.

"What’s up? Gu Jinpeng? Are you enjoying your new ho now?" He greeted the alpha rrily.

But contrary to Shen Yuan’s attitude, the other was struck to the ground, not daring to move even an inch.

"What? Why are you looking so shocked? Did you forget how close it was that night?" The celestial fox spirit smiled wide. "I taught you how to dance to the rhythm of electricity, rember?"

"Or do you want us to start over again?"

Gu Jinpeng, the forr top assassin-for-hire, turned pale upon hearing Shen Yuan’s words.
