Chapter 191 Conflict Caused by a Joke!
As Qingyuan felt a chill run down his spine and hurried on his way, he realized he was on the verge of collapse.
In just twenty minutes, he ran back to the Pokémon Center in Fuchsia City from the Fuchsia Gym.
"what happened?"
"Did you do something immoral?"
Qiao Yiling looked at Qingyuan, who was panting heavily, and asked him with curiosity.
"Get out of here, you're the one who did something despicable!"
Upon hearing Qiao Yiling's words, Qingyuan waved his hand impatiently at her.
"Hey kid, how dare you talk to Miss Joey like that!"
"Miss Joy went through all that trouble to heal our elves, and all you got in return was your harsh words?"
Upon hearing Qingyuan's words, a fierce-looking man standing nearby immediately spoke to Qingyuan with displeasure.
"Exactly! You can tell at a glance that this kid isn't a good person!"
"Judging from how out of breath this guy is, could he be some kind of fugitive?"
"I heard that someone recently destroyed a hunter organization. Could this guy be the elf hunter who escaped during the chaos back then?!"
Upon hearing the man's words, the people around him all chimed in with agreement.
Even worse, some have even labeled Qingyuan a fugitive.
Hearing these words, Qingyuan was stunned.
He was being rather reckless with his words, given the Joey family's reputation in the world.
Even if Joey really did something despicable and it got exposed.
Most people would probably prefer to think of themselves as part of the slander against Joey.
They also refused to believe that Joey had actually done something so despicable.
In this world, Joey and Officer Jenny's reputations are almost deified.
"Look at you, if you didn't do anything immoral, then you didn't do it!"
Why are you getting so angry!
Qiao Yiling tapped Qingyuan's head and said.
"Everyone, please be quiet! This is my friend. We were just joking around!"
"And he's the one who destroyed that hunter organization; he's not a fugitive!"
"I know everyone doesn't want me to be bullied, but you can't just label someone a fugitive like that!"
However, hearing the increasingly vicious words from those around her, Qiao Yiling quickly spoke up to explain for Qingyuan.
This whole thing started because of her.
If she hadn't joked with Qingyuan, Qingyuan wouldn't have retorted with such an impatient expression.
People around him wouldn't just join in the commotion and spread rumors about Qingyuan.
Therefore, it was her duty to help Qingyuan explain.
Upon hearing Qiao Yiling's words, the surrounding voices gradually quieted down.
However, some rustling sounds could still be heard.
"Judging by his appearance, he might be a hunter from some hunter organization!"
"Exactly! I wonder what they were doing running so fast just now!"
Sometimes, prejudice in people's hearts is like a mountain; whatever their first impression of you is, they will assume that's who you are.
Moreover, these types of people share a common characteristic: they do not accept rebuttal.
Seeing that the slander against Qingyuan was still going on, Qiao Yiling was about to speak.
Qingyuan reached out and stopped him.
In his previous life, Qingyuan, an orphan, had faced such situations countless times.
The best way to deal with this kind of person is to fight them.
Beat him until he dares not say anything bad about you.
As for his impression of you, let him be whatever he wants, as long as he doesn't speak ill of you in front of you.
If you don't hear any bad things, then just pretend no one said them.
As for what he said he gave to someone else, that person passed it on to you.
Then beat him up again, because you heard it, which means he said it.
However, due to malnutrition in his previous life, Qingyuan usually pretended not to care about such things.
Because he couldn't beat his opponent, he could only cower in fear.
But things are different now; now he doesn't mention the Nine-Tails.
The Scorpion King alone has made a name for itself in this world.
If you include Nine-Tails, he's practically a Champion Trainer.
With such strength, he could no longer afford to be a coward.
Of course, if he really can't beat them, then don't blame him for unleashing the Nine-Tails.
After all, it was these people who started slandering him.
"Is it impressive to spread rumors and gossip behind people's backs?"
"We're all trainers, so let's solve this like trainers do!"
"It just so happens that Scorpio King and I are itching for a fight. Anyone dare to come out and have a go?"
After saying that, Qingyuan took out Gliscor's Poké Ball and released Gliscor.
Because he had just finished fighting with the Crobats, Scorpion King's eyes were still full of fighting spirit.
The malevolent aura emanating from him was like a flood bursting its banks, surging and raging uncontrollably, spreading wildly in all directions.
Moreover, due to the properties of poison healing, the Scorpion King, who had just finished a battle.
At this moment, he not only did not show any signs of fatigue, but appeared even more energetic, with a sharp glint in his eyes.
I could feel the abyss-like, malevolent aura surrounding the Scorpio King.
The Pokémon Center, which had been whispering just moments before, suddenly fell silent.
Most of them believed they were no match for the Scorpion King.
Therefore, when faced with Qingyuan's challenge, they could only cower like turtles.
After waiting for a while and finding that no one would accept the challenge, Qingyuan immediately started to mock him.
"No wonder there are always people gossiping behind my back, turns out they're a bunch of useless idiots!"
"So all we can do is hide in the shadows and cricket at others like a reptile!"
Upon hearing Qingyuan's words, the man who had spoken first immediately stepped forward.
"Unlike others, I spoke up simply because I couldn't stand your attitude towards Miss Joey!"
"We are facing this challenge because we don't want you to underestimate us!"
The fierce-looking man glared at Qingyuan and roared angrily.
Qingyuan, however, saw a righteous air about the other person.
"please!"
However, in order not to lose his composure, Qingyuan said "please" to the man.
He then headed towards the battle arena outside the Pokémon Center.
"Humph!"
Upon hearing Qingyuan's words, the man snorted coldly and followed behind Qingyuan without the slightest fear.
"Oh dear, I was just joking, how did things turn out like this!"
Seeing Qingyuan and the man about to fight, Qiao Yiling said with a look of self-reproach.
The trainers standing nearby looked somewhat embarrassed by what they saw.
Although none of them wanted to admit it, they all knew it clearly.
The way things have turned out is inextricably linked to those who like to make sarcastic remarks.
"Seigen of Tokiwa City, this is my partner, Scorpion King!"
Upon arriving at the battlefield, Qingyuan cupped his hands in greeting to the man opposite him and began to speak.
Although this person accepted his challenge.
But judging from his words and behavior...
Qingyuan could tell that the other person wasn't the type to gossip.
Moreover, when he first reprimanded Qingyuan, it was only because he felt that Qingyuan shouldn't have treated Miss Joy, who was healing the elves for everyone, that way.
This shows that this guy is a relatively positive person.
He has an overwhelming sense of justice and probably likes to meddle in other people's business!
