Chapter 749 - 308: You Think the Chen Family Patriarch Cultivates? This Is a Bit Too Much! (Part 2)

He hurriedly took out his phone to check the internet, and his face turned extremely grim in an instant.

On Tiao Yin, the news about their rectification and punishment had surprisingly become a hot topic.

"After the scandal involving the first CEO, the ** Temple has been publicly punished again!"

"Seriously, Jiu Mozhi was unjustly accused before; his words were actually toned down."

"A place of cultivation, constantly embroiled in money-grabbing, scandals, and punishment; does anyone still believe in it?"

"Haha, what’s the difference between public punishment and public execution? It’s just delightful to watch!"

The bald CEO looked at the video in the hot topic titles, gritting his teeth.

Do they really have a grudge against them?

The key is, what’s Tiao Yin playing at? When it’s their turn, the news becomes a hot topic almost instantly, right?

But when it happens to the other side, the heat just gets suppressed, right?

This behavior is simply double standards.

In his mind, he couldn’t help but want to curse out loud.

What’s even more infuriating is that, in an instant, a hot topic surpassed the news about their punishment.

"Taoist Scripture Exchange Conference, Daoists jointly write new-age Feng Shui books, showcasing the Mystic Sect’s progress with the times!"

"???!" When the bald CEO saw this news, he felt the malice of the world intensely.

They hadn’t done anything but ended up being publicly punished, and their disgrace was splattered all over the internet.

Yet, the other side was previously questioned for promoting Feng Shui superstitions, even needing to rely on Taoist Scripture exchanges as a pretense, while awkwardly declaring ’believe in science’.

Now they’re just blatantly promoting Feng Shui books?

And using commendatory terms like "new-age" and "progressive with the times"?

Do they have to be so blatantly biased?

But when he opened the hot topic and saw the video inside, he was stunned.

Especially seeing Feng Shui combined with geography, and even using real places as examples, he was even more baffled—is this what Feng Shui is?

If Feng Shui were this simple, why did their predecessors only manage to grasp a small amount of Feng Shui knowledge?

If it were this simple, he was convinced it belonged to them in ancient times.

The problem is, once such a Feng Shui book is compiled, is it still Feng Shui?

Even as a monk, he understood that this was geography science.

This made him realize a very unfavorable situation.

The Taoist Sect seems to have moved ahead of them, better integrating into this new age wave.

Is this why Tiao Yin is blatantly biased?

Clearly, this CEO would never have thought that the higher-ups were already paying attention to this matter.

Online, while netizens were relishing the scandal of ** Temple’s public punishment, they also saw the news about Feng Shui books suddenly popping up.

Previously, when Wudang’s exchange conference was exposed for being a Feng Shui exchange, those Daoists collectively denied it, telling people to believe in science.

Now, what’s going on that they are openly promoting Feng Shui books?

A lot of people were already concerned about this matter, clicked into this hot topic to check it out, and saw the contents of these Feng Shui books being revealed.

Even people like Ma Yuan and the higher-ups were bewildered by the Feng Shui content, not to mention the netizens.

Seeing a long section of corresponding geographic knowledge following the Feng Shui information, they suddenly realized that Feng Shui doesn’t seem that hard.

If it were them, they might even learn it.

This left them uncertain if this was indeed Feng Shui.

The suddenly popular video quickly reached its peak in popularity, with lively discussions inside the video.

"666, Feng Shui suddenly feels like a complex math problem turning into an elementary school quiz."

"Damn, I believe the end of believing in science is mysticism."

"It’s a bit ironic that the Daoists practicing mysticism have proven that Feng Shui is geography science, while experts trying to prove Feng Shui utilizes geography couldn’t do it."

"..."

The emergence of this Feng Shui book attracted all netizens’ attention in a short time.

This also shows that everyone is still interested in traditional culture; the main thing is to make it understandable, not too obscure.

Actually, Chen Han’s Feng Shui book, created with the Feng Shui Spirit Recording Stone, was just stripping away the encrypted heritage. Previously, Feng Shui emphasized familial heritage, deliberately making it mysterious and hard to understand.

Only those proficient in it know the inner workings, passed down through generations, while outsiders are confounded by some cryptic encrypted contents.

This is actually one reason many traditional cultures have declined and become lost.

There was once a movie about an ancient medicinal recipe, if one didn’t know the plot, it was a recipe; just reading the content, it was a love poem—who knew it was a medicinal recipe.

However, it’s understandable; after all, it’s one’s own stuff, who wouldn’t take preventative measures? It’s the same today—look at those company formulas, which aren’t tightly guarded?

Not long after, another video on Feng Shui books suddenly went viral.

"Isn’t anyone curious about who the author of the Feng Shui book is? It’s Patriarch Chen, and Xiaomi is the geography knowledge consultant!"

With this level of popularity, it’s hard for the video not to ignite more heat upon release.

Actually, quite a few people noticed the name Chen Han (Great Profound) when they looked at the cover.

However, under normal circumstances, no one would associate it with Patriarch Chen.

Because the vast majority of people who know, follow, and comment on this Patriarch Chen usually have only heard, seen, or commented on the three characters ’Patriarch Chen’.
