Chapter 328 Celebrity Effect

 Today on earth, no one will know about Ji Xinghuo unless they don’t use the Internet or have any social contacts.

  But such people almost do not exist in the Asia-Pacific Community.

Especially since Ji Xinghuo climbed to the top of the ladder half a month ago, his name has been constantly appearing in hot searches, and it is difficult not to know. Just now, he directly scolded a king on social platforms, which shocked many people.

However, Ji Xinghuo still remains mysterious in people's eyes.

This name is just a sign, a symbol. People don’t know what it looks like and cannot connect it with the real image.

Now that he suddenly appeared in front of us, people were naturally extremely curious.

 The whole place was quiet for a few seconds.

Ji Xinghuo looked at the expressions on the faces of the people around him, including curiosity, surprise, awe, inquiry, doubt, etc. They saw that they were just watching a colorful giant panda, and they felt a little helpless, but they didn't care.

 When you choose to protect your privacy online, you have already thought of this situation.

                                              …

Ji Xinghuo laughed and said, "Yunhai, why don't you introduce it to me?"

His parents are nearly sixty years old. Although they are well maintained and look like they are only in their forties, they can tell that they are not the upper class. They only look young because they have not worked for a long time.

Lu Yunhai behaved more humbly when introducing other members of the Fang family.

 Everyone had a kind smile on their face, and some people said something to please them, including Fang Yinping’s parents.

The Fang family only started to get rich from her grandfather's generation, so there are only three generations, but there are more than thirty people in the family. In Chang'an, it can only be regarded as a small family that has just escaped from the middle class, and is still far from the real aristocratic class.

His wife Li Ziyun glared at him and said, "Don't scream."

 To be precise, the world has not changed, what has changed is ourselves.

Ji Xinghuo replied: "Mr. Fang laughed."

 “Okay, okay.” Lu Yunhai looked a little embarrassed. He did not expect that his family elders would react like this.

 The sound of the two talking made the atmosphere return to normal.

 “Uncle Lu, Aunt Li.”

 In this era, people with better economic conditions and higher social status are more willing to have more children.

Ji Xinghuo just pretended not to see it.

Although he hid it well, Ji Xinghuo could tell at a glance that the other person was actually very nervous and more cautious than Lu Yunhai's father. He had obviously thought about what he said for a long time.

Ji Xinghuo glanced at Lu Yunhai. His face was full of joy at the moment. His fame, strength and status made him stand tall in front of Fang Yinping's family, and even Fang Yinping himself felt proud.

 “Is this face?”

Ji Xinghuo heard from Lu Yunhai that there were four strangers in the Fang family.

Lu Yunhai quickly introduced others.

 “Mr. Ji, I have long admired your name.”

 The surrounding staff continued to work, but their eyes frequently turned around, and some quietly took out their mobile phones to take pictures.

 He was dressed in a simple but expensive formal suit, with a kind smile on his face and maintained the demeanor of an elder.

However, others don’t see him that way.

Fang Yanbin held Ji Xinghuo's hand and said, "Our family has always heard Xiaohai talking about you. It's a great honor to finally see you in person today."

 This is the first time Ji Xinghuo has interacted with ordinary people in a public capacity since he became famous, and he deeply realized that the world has changed.

Although I cannot give my son much financial support, the family atmosphere is relaxed and comfortable, and he is both a newcomer and a friend.

 At present, Fang Yinping’s grandfather is still in charge of the Fang family, and his name is Fang Yanbin.

 Actually, he doesn't like it.

However, none of them, including Fang Yinping, were very talented, and with the family's financial resources, they could only cultivate one high-level alien, who was Fang Yinping's uncle.

 Compared to the Lu family and his wife, Fang Yinping has more elder family members. Her parents, grandparents are all here, as well as her sister and two brothers. At first glance, this family looks like a wealthy family with different classes.

 But if others want to treat him in this way, Ji Xinghuo has no choice but to treat it with a normal heart, as long as he is not affected.

"Xiao Ji, you still remember me." Lu Tao looked excited, "I have seen before that you are not an ordinary person."

 Their family business mainly invests in venues related to martial arts, sports and fitness, and archery, with total assets approaching one billion.

Lu Yunhai walked up to a middle-aged couple and said, "Xinghuo, this is what my dad and my mom told you."

"Haha, Mr. Ji is indeed a talented person. So many people around the world are curious about Mr. Ji's appearance. If they see him in person, they will not be disappointed." Fang Yanbin gave a couple of appropriate compliments.

Ji Xinghuo always looked casual, without any airs, just like an ordinary young man.

 After a few generations, a large family of nearly a hundred people can be formed.

“It’s okay Aunt Li, you are elders, so it’s okay to call me Xiao Ji like before.” Ji Xinghuo never cared about these things.

Lu Yunhai is an only child, and he used to often complain about his parents.

 It is common for an upper-class couple to have three, four, or even five or six children.

Ji Xinghuo greeted them with a smile. He remembered their names and had met them several times on video calls before.

 The two met while playing games. After getting married, they took care of their children and treated Lu Yunhai as a trustee child. They had fun in the games.

Ji Xinghuo laughed secretly in his heart and cooperated with Lu Yunhai in his show.

It took Lu Yunhai a few minutes to introduce all the elders and relatives of the Fang family, and then he got down to business.

“Xinghuo, tomorrow’s wedding process will be like this…”

 Mr. and Mrs. Lu Yunhai and a person in charge of the wedding site began to assign tasks for tomorrow. The person in charge had a trembling face, but seeing Ji Xinghuo listening carefully, she gradually relaxed and got into working mode.

 The members of the Fang family were all dispersed by Fang Yanbin, and only he himself stayed behind to serve as the commander-in-chief.

These are all excuses.

 The procedures for the wedding company and the hotel have been decided long ago and have been done countless times without any scheduling at all.

But everyone knew it well and did not expose him.

 “Ji Xinghuo!”

A familiar yet unfamiliar voice came, startling everyone. They turned around to see a tall and burly figure approaching quickly.

“Wu Qifeng, it turns out you’re the boy.” Ji Xinghuo laughed. The other person rushed over in two or three steps and stood in front of Ji Xinghuo. The two looked at each other for a few seconds, then raised their hands and bumped their fists.

boom.

With a soft sound, Wu Qifeng's expression suddenly twisted and he screamed in pain: "Holy shit!"

"Weren't you very arrogant before?" Ji Xinghuo said with a proud face, "Now you can't even handle this little strength?"

Wu Qifeng is also a classmate in college.

However, compared to Ji Xinghuo’s obscurity in college, Wu Qifeng stole the show. When he was 18 years old in his freshman year, he fused with alien species and became a "Gravity Warrior", becoming a famous figure in the school.

There were more than 40 people in the class at that time, and by graduation there were only three strangers.

Wu Qifeng is the most talented in the class. He was already an intermediate alien in his senior year. He entered the star realm as soon as he graduated and has not many contacts.

Ji Xinghuo has a good relationship with him. He is one of the closer classmates in the class, but he is not as good as Lu Yunhai.

Previously, Ji Xinghuo heard from Lu Yunhai that after he became a stranger, he got acquainted with Wu Qifeng again while chatting in a classmate group. After the two met, they went to the star world several times together and invited Wu Qifeng to get married. Be the best man.

Wu Qifeng is more than 1.9 meters tall, with strong muscles and a strong figure, but now his body is hunched like a shrimp.

 “Damn it, you didn’t hit it lightly or hard!” Wu Qifeng took a few seconds to recover and kept shaking his hand.

 “You can’t do it.”

Ji Xinghuo laughed and said, "My punch didn't even have 5% of the power, it just had a little bit of electricity."

"Damn." Wu Qifeng's expression changed, and he couldn't help but look at Ji Xinghuo again, and said depressedly: "If I had known you would be so good, I should have competed with you more when I was in college, so that I could defeat the first person on the ladder. ”

Ji Xinghuo smiled and said nothing.

 During their college careers, the two were barely in a competitive relationship, but at that time I was just an ordinary person, so of course I couldn't be Wu Qifeng's opponent.

Now the situation has reversed, the gap between the two sides is huge, let alone competition, Wu Qifeng is not even worthy of being an opponent.

 “What rank are you in now?” Ji Xinghuo asked.

 “High-level alien.”

"Not bad." Ji Xinghuo nodded, "Less than three years after we graduated, you evolved again. It seems that you are doing well in the star realm. Not only did you not lose your life, you were promoted to a high-level alien. "

Wu Qifeng is the same age as himself. He became a high-level alien at the age of twenty-five, and he is also a relatively rare gravity warrior.

If you can become a super alien before the age of thirty, you will have a chance to hit the ladder in the future.

Fengming Language University, his alma mater, can only be regarded as a second-rate institution in the country. It has not been able to produce such a genius in more than ten years.

"Why do I feel like you are blaming me?" Wu Qifeng scratched his head, "Yunhai, did you hear it?"

Lu Yunhai nodded: "A little bit."

"You're overthinking it. I'm just telling the truth." Ji Xinghuo spread his hands.

Wu Qifeng stared into Ji Xinghuo's eyes, "Okay, now you are the most awesome, I will believe whatever you say." Then the conversation changed, "Hey, Xinghuo, you still remember that I am a die-hard fan of Jian Xian, right? "

 “Remember, what’s wrong?” Ji Xinghuo said.

"When can you introduce Jian Xian to me?" Wu Qifeng's face was full of expectation and he said sincerely: "Don't get me wrong, I have no other intention. I am just a simple fan who has admired the idol for a long time and wants to meet him in person. Dreams come true, you understand?”

 Ji Xinghuo knew that he had no other intentions.

When he was in college, Wu Qifeng was indeed a fan of Zhao Manying. He also established a fan group at school, organized to watch Zhao Manying's games, and discussed and posted after the games. He was the most loyal fan.

At that time he asked himself to join, but refused.

"I'll introduce you to him tomorrow." Ji Xinghuo didn't mind, "Yunhai also invited Manying to attend the wedding."

"Very good!"

Wu Qifeng was extremely happy, "I envy you for being the number one on the ladder, but I envy you even more for being the boyfriend of Fairy Sword!"

He put his arm around Ji Xinghuo's shoulders, "Who would have thought that I was not willing to invite you into the Jianxian fan group before, but ended up silently falling in love with her. When I first heard about it, I almost thought the world was gone. what is the problem…"

 “Just be sour.” Ji Xinghuo said angrily.

"Holy shit, which man in the world is not bitter?" Wu Qifeng admitted generously, "If you weren't too strong now and couldn't beat you, I would have wanted to beat you up to relieve my anger."

Ji Xinghuo raised his fingers and said, "Actually, you can try it. I stand still and only use one hand." Wu Qifeng's eyes lit up and he was eager to try.

Lu Yunhai also encouraged: "Qifeng and Xinghuo have made so many concessions, you don't even have the courage to try, right?"

 Everyone else present watched and did not interrupt.

“Forget it.” Wu Qifeng finally gave in, “Others don’t know how strong the number one player is, but I know it very well, so I’d better not humiliate myself.”

Ji Xinghuo praised: "As expected of someone who has been in the star realm, he has good eyesight."

“Damn, what you say now is so irritating.” Wu Qifeng rolled his eyes, but there was nothing he could do.

"Hahaha…"

Ji Xinghuo laughed loudly.

 It is easier to get along with familiar people. Wu Qifeng is a stranger and he was a classmate before, so he can speak freely.

 Next, the best man and bridesmaids arrived.

The last of the three groomsmen is Lu Yunhai’s high school classmate. They grew up together and were not in the same school until college. They were admitted to a top university. After graduation, they stayed in Chang’an and joined a financial company. They were both excellent in their studies and work.

 But he is not a stranger, he has no confidence in front of Ji Xinghuo, and he speaks cautiously.

 The three bridesmaids are all beautiful, one is Fang Yinping’s sister, and the other two are her friends and classmates.

  Everyone put on custom-made formal dresses, assigned tasks, and then took photos together.

Ji Xinghuo noticed that the three bridesmaids frequently peeked at him.

 Not just them, everyone around them is paying attention to them. They are the center of attention wherever they go, and their every move attracts attention.

 If you don’t speak, others will take it for granted.

 If you talk in a friendly manner, people will be flattered and agree immediately.

  Sometimes just telling a few jokes can make people laugh, even though they are not actually that funny.

This feels good, but also boring.

Ji Xinghuo doesn’t care what others think or think, he just does what he should do and fulfills his duties as best man. In the evening, the Fang family invited them to dinner, and of course they also invited other groomsmen and bridesmaids, saying they wanted to express their gratitude.

 Halfway through dinner, the owner of the hotel came to visit, just to meet Ji Xinghuo and waive Lu Yunhai's venue usage fee.

 The Fang family’s faces were all glowing and they were very pleased with it.

Ji Xinghuo stayed at the hotel that night, which was considered a favor. At dawn the next day, the wedding process began.

 In the 23rd century, the marriage rate is very low.

 However, anyone who is willing to get married regards it as the top priority in life. The richer and more powerful the family, the grander the wedding. The process and ceremony of the retro wedding have reached its peak, integrating the achievements of all dynasties, and the level of complexity is prohibitive.

 After completing the rituals one after another, from morning to noon, it took five or six hours to make people feel dizzy.

Ji Xinghuo acts as a tool and follows the process.

 He kept a low profile throughout the whole process, but even so he still attracted everyone's attention.

As soon as someone hears that they are Ji Xinghuo, they immediately become more attractive than the bride and groom. People either cast their eyes on her frequently, or take advantage of the breaks in the ceremony to come up to talk and ask for photos.

Ji Xinghuo agreed to take a group photo as long as it did not affect the wedding, and did not refuse people thousands of miles away.

 This is also the reason why Lu Yunhai asked himself to be the best man.

 Give him face and win more face.

 At noon, most of the wedding process was completed, and the invited guests arrived one after another and entered the house.

 The hall in the middle was full of joy, with hundreds of banquet tables set up.

Ji Xinghuo also had some free time and sat down with Wu Qifeng to rest. Wu Qifeng complained: "The wedding in Yunhai was very lively, but it was too troublesome. If you have to do this to get married, who would dare to get married?"

“It doesn’t have to be a retro wedding, you can also have a simpler modern wedding.” Ji Xinghuo shook his head.

 “Then it’s best not to get married.” Wu Qifeng replied.

He has a decent appearance and a tall and straight figure. He had no shortage of girlfriends when he was in college. He could have another girlfriend every semester, sometimes more frequently.

“Do you have a girlfriend now?” Ji Xinghuo asked.

"Yes." Wu Qifeng said proudly, "And there's more than one, hehe..." He held out three fingers.

Ji Xinghuo was silent for a few seconds and cursed: "Scumbag."

"Falling in love is something that you and I both agree on." Wu Qifeng was not ashamed at all, "And I didn't hide it. They knew each other that other women existed, and I didn't treat them badly. They could leave me at any time, and it's not illegal. "

"But three is too many." Ji Xinghuo wanted to ask for advice, but didn't know how to ask.

“That’s not enough for me.” Wu Qifeng whispered, “I heard that someone dated more than a dozen girlfriends at the same time and bought a big villa to have a harem, tsk tsk…”

Ji Xinghuo suddenly became interested.

Just as he was about to inquire, Wu Qifeng suddenly changed the subject and said enviously: "You must not be interested. No matter how many girlfriends you have, they can't compare to a sword fairy. If I had a girlfriend like the sword fairy, other women wouldn't even look at her. One glance, no matter how complicated the wedding ceremony is, I am willing to do it once a month."

 “Ahem…” Ji Xinghuo almost choked.

Wu Qifeng asked in confusion: "What's wrong?"

"It's okay." Ji Xinghuo regained his expression and asked, "Who else in the class did Yunhai invite?"

"Everyone with whom I have good connections is invited." Wu Qifeng replied, "Many students saw the news in the group and said they wanted to participate. There are also people who have returned from abroad. It is estimated that most of the class is here, as well as counselors and teacher."

 He smiled and said, "It's a lie to attend the wedding, but it's true that I want to see you."

"Let's meet up when we meet. It doesn't matter if it's a little lively. We haven't seen each other for a long time since graduation." Ji Xinghuo didn't care.

 While the two were talking, guests began to arrive.

 “Ji Xinghuo!”

 “Damn it, he’s really here…”

Several students had not yet sat down. When they saw Ji Xinghuo and Wu Qifeng sitting at the table, they were all surprised and came over immediately.

Ji Xinghuo stood up and greeted his classmates. Since he had graduated less than three years ago, he naturally would not forget their names.

 Just a few simple words of greeting made everyone feel flattered.

Of course, we are all classmates after all. Although the relationship is close or distant, we are still familiar classmates after four years of getting along. Even if there is a gap in achievements now, we are still closer than others.

The classmates in the class arrived one after another and sat at three or four tables nearby. Most of them brought their friends to watch the fun together.

  Everyone chatted and laughed, recalling the days at school, as if they were back to the high-spirited days of college.

Ji Xinghuo doesn’t talk much.

However, the students’ attention was all on him, and no matter what the topic was, they would eventually come back to him.

 Everyone asked Ji Xinghuo several questions from time to time, and they were very curious about his experience.

Ji Xinghuo will give a simple answer as long as there is no confidentiality involved.

Although many of his deeds can be found on the Internet, hearing Ji Xinghuo speak out about them, it still feels different, triggering bursts of exclamation.

There are more and more guests in the lobby, and most tables are occupied.

Because it was kept secret in advance, the guests only heard about it after they arrived. There was Ji Xinghuo at the wedding today. Some people stood up frequently to watch and took out their mobile phones to take pictures.

 “Sword Immortal!”

 Suddenly there was a shout of surprise outside the door.

The students all turned to look and saw Zhao Manying coming in from the door. Today she was wearing a light-colored dress that was a little more formal but not eye-catching. Her long hair was simply tied into a high ponytail. She was fresh and beautiful, with a bare face, but she still became The focus of the audience.

Whether men or women saw her, they were all stunned, and the men couldn't take their eyes away.

Zhao Manying saw Ji Xinghuo at a glance and walked towards him.

With people watching, she came to Ji Xinghuo and took his arm. Ji Xinghuo smiled and said, "Everyone knows Manying, so I don't need to introduce him."

 The students burst into good-natured laughter.

"Manying." Ji Xinghuo pointed at Wu Qifeng and said, "He is Wu Qifeng. He is your number one fan in our class. He also organized your fan group. He is now a senior alien and is also Yunhai's best man today."

"Hello, Mr. Wu." Zhao Manying chuckled and reached out his hand.

"H-Hello! Hello..." Wu Qifeng's face turned red with excitement, and he even stuttered a bit when he spoke, "Jianxian, I have been your fan for many years. Whenever I am free, I will go to watch your game."

"Thanks for your support."

Zhao Manying shook his hand and let go, then sat down.

The lobby is getting more and more lively, filled with guests and friends, but people seem to be a little absent-minded. They are either looking at Ji Xinghuo and Zhao Manying, or sending messages on their mobile phones. Suddenly, online messages are flying everywhere.

 It is normal for two world-class celebrities to be present.

“Xinghuo, can I take a photo with you?” A man in his thirties suddenly asked.

Ji Xinghuo readily agreed: "Of course, Teacher Liu."

This is a class counselor who has been in college for four years. He is an upright person and treats all classmates equally. He has a good reputation among students and is still working in the school.

 The three of them took a group photo together.

Ji Xinghuo stood in the middle. After taking the photo, he said, "Teacher Liu, I will authorize you to take a personal photo."

 In photos taken without the person's authorization, even on mobile phones, the face will be processed.

 After authorization, personal photos can be retained and displayed normally.

This kind of photo can only be seen by yourself.

 You can also hold your mobile phone and show it to others, but you cannot send it to the Internet. It will also be processed to ensure privacy.

“I also want to take a group photo.” A classmate said: “Xinghuo, can you also give me permission?”

 “No problem.” Ji Xinghuo agreed readily.

"And I…"

The students rushed to take a group photo, and Ji Xinghuo and Zhao Manying were in the photo together. He complied with the students' requests and gave them authorization.

 When the surrounding guests saw this, they were all ready to move.

At this time, a gong sounded, a blast of firecrackers came from the speakers, the lights flashed in the lobby, and the master of ceremonies came on stage to start the wedding ceremony.
