Chapter 6 Connections
LuLu Almond Milk, who had been beaming with joy, fell silent upon hearing the words "vanished into thin air."
She murmured:
"Taoist Master, can we perform a ritual to help it be reincarnated? The result of it turning to ashes is too cruel. It's just that we have no affinity; I'm not fortunate enough to be its mother..."
Master Xuancheng's brows furrowed instantly.
His tone became sharp:
"Now that you've sown the seeds of karma and aborted it yourself, you complain about my ruthless methods? Do you know how rare this talisman is? If it weren't for your pitiful state as a young girl, I wouldn't even want to sell it. One price, this amount, is it what you want? Good luck, young lady!"
He stretched out his hands and made the sign of the cross.
The viewers in the live chat were astonished, exclaiming, "Wow, 100,000!"
[Holy crap, the golden patterns on the talisman are moving! This is a top-grade talisman!]
[It's better to lose money than to suffer a terrible fate. Don't even think about saving money now. The spirits of unborn children and vengeful ghosts are not to be trifled with; it's a matter of life and death!]
[Livestreamers make money fast.]
Lulu bit her lower lip, her eyes showing struggle.
Seeing that she was still hesitating, Master Xuancheng snorted coldly, "Young lady, to tell you the truth, I see that your forehead is dark and gloomy, and you will surely suffer a bloody disaster soon. If it weren't for your pitiful state, saving a life would be better than building a seven-story pagoda, and I would not have been willing to take out this top-grade exorcism and protection talisman."
LuLu Almond Milk's body trembled violently, and her face instantly turned pale.
She dared not hesitate any longer, her voice trembling: "Master, I'll buy it! I've saved 80,000 yuan over the years, I'll transfer it to you first, and I'll borrow the remaining 20,000 yuan, is that alright?"
Master Xuancheng pursed his lips and said reluctantly, "Alright, I won't argue with a little girl like you. I'll send you the details of the transaction privately."
Just when everyone thought the matter was about to settle down, a comment suddenly appeared like a pebble thrown into a calm lake, creating ripples everywhere:
"Young lady, please don't buy it. It's just an ordinary piece of yellow paper that looks different under the light. Looking at your face, I see no supernatural phenomena in your situation; it's simply a romantic entanglement, entirely caused by human intervention."
This sincere comment immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the live stream.
[A love triangle? Does this fellow cultivator also know how to read faces?]
Wow, someone's trying to cause trouble. Interesting, let's see if they start fighting!
[I've been watching Master Xuancheng for over a year, and his predictions are quite accurate. Could this be a malicious slander from a fellow practitioner?]
[I sense a fellow practitioner has arrived. I bought a peace talisman from Master Xuancheng, and it seemed quite effective to me. I wore it for six months and everything went smoothly.]
Xuancheng Daoist himself also noticed the commotion in the bullet screen area.
His smug expression turned grim as he glared at the comments section and let out a heavy, cold snort.
"Who dares to speak such nonsense! The eyes of the masses are discerning. You dare to slander me? What power do you have? I am the 28th generation successor of Qingyun Temple in Zhongnan Mountain. I have been practicing under my master since childhood and have learned the true skills of fortune-telling and changing destiny. The big boss of Dongcheng Company was suffering continuous losses in his business. I looked at his feng shui and helped him adjust the layout of his office. In less than half a year, he turned his business around and earned millions a year! There was also a minor celebrity who was having bad luck. I performed a ritual to change his luck and directly made him a top star!"
Master Xuancheng showed a photo of himself with a celebrity. In the photo, a handsome young man was holding his blessed jade Pixiu and smiling broadly.
The moment this photo appeared, the comments section exploded again.
Wow, wow, no wonder this top star is so popular now! Just a year ago, they were a nobody! Amazing!
[Master, how do I book an appointment for your fortune-changing service? I'd also like to change the luck of my obscure idol; price is negotiable.]
[The person upstairs is probably a rich woman's fan. I also want to change my luck, but it's probably very expensive, sob sob. I really want to change my luck and pass the exam. I've taken it more than ten times QAQ]
After Xuancheng Daoren boasted for a while, the barrage of comments instantly turned in his favor, and everyone's enthusiasm for him grew even stronger.
And this dissenting comment was posted by Lu Yao.
It's using Zhang Sheng's account, with the ID "Lonely Wolf".
She didn't understand pinyin, but she discovered the speech-to-text function.
She had no concept of 100,000 yuan in this era, but after hearing the girl on the other end of the line say that she had saved it for several years, she knew that this was not a small amount.
Looking at the talisman that Xuancheng Daoist took out, there was no fluctuation of spiritual energy; it was just an ordinary piece of yellow paper.
Moreover, she could tell at a glance that there was no resentment lingering on Lulu Almond Dew, and there was no such thing as a vengeful infant spirit.
This Taoist Xuancheng is a complete fraud.
She stared at the live stream interface for a while and quickly found the button to request a connection.
Viewers in the live stream saw that the person who had caused the disruption, [Lonely Wolf], had actually boldly requested to connect. Was he going to confront them head-on?
The crowd instantly became excited, as if they had been injected with adrenaline, and frantically urged Daoist Xuancheng to accept the call.
[The Taoist priest will teach this arrogant fool a lesson!]
[Taoist Master, we all support you! Quickly pull this guy up and teach him a lesson!]
The live stream was already seeing a surge in viewership when LuLu Almond Milk joined the live stream, but now that someone else has come to disrupt it, the number of viewers has skyrocketed, exceeding 10,000.
Xuancheng Daoist was so excited that his neck turned red as he watched the number of viewers rise. His live stream hadn't been this lively in a long time.
He cleared his throat, then stroked his long beard with feigned composure. "Hehe, then I'll meet this fellow Daoist and debate with him about the scriptures."
After saying that, he confidently pressed the "agree" button.
A new pop-up window appeared, displaying a somewhat dim image. The light from the phone screen illuminated a pale face with dark, eerie eyes, startling the viewers in the live stream.
[Oh my god, a female ghost!!]
[I was so scared my phone hit my face! It hurt so much!]
[No, this is Lone Wolf? I thought it was a middle-aged man. Why would a young girl have such a name?]
Because this is Zhang Sheng's phone account...
[Pfft, I thought the one coming to cause trouble would at least be a Taoist priest of some rank, but it's just a little girl. Are you kidding me?]
When Xuancheng Daoist saw this, he breathed a huge sigh of relief. He had been quite worried that a powerful competitor might come to cause trouble.
Since she's just a young girl, what's there to be afraid of?
He sneered, "You little brat, you dare to cause trouble here? I'd like to see what your opinion is."
Lu Yao didn't want to talk to him, but only said to Lu Lu Almond Dew, whom she had connected with earlier:
"Your abdominal pain is a sequela caused by an unhealed infection after the surgery. The so-called bloodshed is just abnormal menstrual bleeding after your abortion. How could it be the spirit of the aborted fetus causing trouble? All your current discomfort is just because your romantic troubles have not ended and bad romantic relationships are still entangled with you."
