As time went on, a week quickly passed.
On the internet, the "Li Shui Lake" tag finally fell from its throne after dominating the trending topics for six consecutive days, and the hype gradually died down.
But the buzz surrounding the "Jianghai Sword God" continued to build within Jianghai City.
Related media outlets reported on it extensively, and with the video of that one sword strike slaying the Demon Insect going viral, many young people in Jianghai City came to see the Jianghai Sword God as their idol.
Just how fanatical had it become?
In weapon shops, swords went from being unpopular, shelf-warming items to best-selling signature products. They were in high demand, orders flooded in, and they were even sold out for a time.
Some shopkeepers were even more aggressive. Seizing the business opportunity, they produced and sold "replicas" based on the appearance of the Ziwei Divine Sword, which sold out almost as soon as they were stocked.
