He immediately agreed, "Okay."
Then the audience saw some divination tools appear on his desk.
There was a compass, copper coins, bamboo sticks...
Comments: [Looks like this master does have some skill.]
The middle-aged man sat there, facing the two colorful stones in the camera lens, his eyes closed, muttering to himself.
At first, his expression was relatively calm, but it soon became serious.
He couldn't see anything at all.
He opened his eyes in disbelief, and mentally recalculated the calculations again, still holding a compass and tossing coins in his hand.
He still couldn't figure anything out.
Bai Xi asked, "Is there an answer?"
The middle-aged man didn't speak; he held the bamboo skewer bucket and shook the skewers inside.
Still, nothing can be predicted.
He opened his eyes. "What exactly is that in your hand?"
Comment: [He didn't even figure it out?]
I'm also curious about what the streamer is holding.
Bai Xi didn't answer his question, but said calmly, "It's my turn now."
The middle-aged man felt resentful upon hearing this, but there was nothing he could do.
Xiao Huai was somewhat surprised to see that his admired and powerful master had failed to figure out what the streamer was holding.
The middle-aged man rummaged through his gray cloth bag and took out a black, palm-sized jade Guanyin statue.
After the audience saw it...
Is this Guanyin statue real or fake?
[It should be real, right? What's the point of something fake?]
[If it were fake, wouldn't the streamer have seen through it immediately? He wouldn't use a fake to fool people for the sake of the competition.]
[I know jade. This is genuine, and it's top-grade jade, priceless.]
Bai Xi stared at the Guanyin in the other person's hand and said, "There is blood on this."
The middle-aged man was taken aback. "No, I didn't."
Bai Xi did some quick calculations and concluded, "The bloodstains are on the jade Guanyin's finger."
The middle-aged man's expression immediately changed.
Live chat: [Wow, the streamer is amazing, he recognized it right away.]
Why is there blood on the jade Guanyin statue? Could it be related to some bloody incident?
[Dude upstairs, you've been watching too many thrillers.]
Bai Xi said, "Because he stole this treasure."
The comments section was filled with shock.
What?! They actually stole someone's treasure! That's despicable!
So, the guy who guessed it was related to the bloodshed was right?
Upon hearing Bai Xi's words, the middle-aged man became enraged and retorted, "You're talking nonsense!"
Bai Xi said, "The original owner of this Guanyin statue was surnamed Li, a businessman. He once consulted you about his fortune. You saw his family's ancestral antique and wanted to take it, but he refused."
“You were furious, so you sent someone to secretly take it. They discovered you, so you controlled them. But you didn’t expect them to have a magical artifact. They quickly regained their senses, and you went to snatch it without hesitation. During the struggle, they were injured, and their blood dripped onto Guanyin’s finger.”
The middle-aged man was startled.
How is that possible?
He had clearly eliminated that person's aura, including their blood.
She couldn't possibly feel it.
Comment: [He really is a fraudulent master.]
It's true he has some skills, but it's also true he's a liar.
[It's also true that he has wicked intentions.]
The middle-aged man still denied it, saying, "I didn't do it. I helped him, so he should pay me. This round doesn't count; let's play again."
Bai Xi did not refuse, "Okay."
The middle-aged man said, "I'll set the questions this time."
Bai Xi took a sip of tea. "Okay."
The middle-aged man thought for a moment, then made up his mind and said, "Let's calculate each other's accounts."
Comment: [Are you counting me as an outsider, and I counting you as an outsider?]
That should be it.
Bai Xi nodded, "Sure. Shall I go first?"
The middle-aged man said, "I'll go first."
He was determined to win her over completely.
He picked up the compass again, and the copper coins on the table clattered as he threw them.
After the copper coin stops spinning.
He fiddled with the coin, repeatedly examining the runes on it to confirm the information.
"You were an orphan, and later, because you liked a certain idol, you came to a big city to work, and entered the entertainment industry because of your appearance..."
Comments: [Isn't this something that can be easily found out? Everyone knows about the streamer's past; there's no need to investigate.]
Is it possible that this man has no idea about the streamer's past? Not everyone follows entertainment news; he doesn't know about those things because he follows the streamer, unlike us. Besides, this man probably didn't know he would be participating in a live stream battle today.
Let's see what he can figure out later.
Actually, I'm quite curious about the streamer's true identity, and I hope this man can figure it out.
Me too. What I'm most curious about is how the streamer went from being universally disliked online to becoming a fortune teller.
[Yeah, who did the streamer learn all these skills from?]
Lin Xinxi noticed the streamer competing with someone in the live broadcast room, which attracted her attention. When she saw that the middle-aged man wanted to calculate the streamer's affairs, she became interested.
She wondered, "Sister Bai Xi is no longer the Lin Xin Xi of the past. Can this fortune teller tell that?"
The middle-aged man was smug about how easily he had seen through her secret.
He continued, "You've acted in some dramas, but you've always been an unknown supporting actor. Later, you gained some fame with a web series, but then you encountered unspoken rules and were hated by everyone..."
Comments: [If he hadn't specifically researched the streamer, his accuracy in saying all this is truly remarkable.]
Please continue.
However, when the middle-aged man saw this, he paused.
Why did he feel like everything in front of him was turning white? It was like a cloth was blocking his view, and he couldn't see anything at all.
Comments: [Why did you stop talking? Hurry up and tell us! The streamer became popular again after becoming a fortune teller.]
The middle-aged man's face showed confusion and seriousness. "Because you were attacked and condemned by the entire internet, you left the entertainment industry and became a fortune-telling livestreamer..."
Comment: [Yes, yes, that's correct. But why is your speech so halting? Doesn't it sound awkward?]
The middle-aged man struggled to get to this point, then could not continue, as the other person could not see the rest of the text.
It's impossible for a person to change that much, and he had previously calculated that she didn't have any talent for metaphysics, let alone learn fortune telling.
She seems to have become a very skilled fortune teller without any formal training.
Could it be...
Is the person in front of him not the one he counted earlier?
The middle-aged man fiddled with the copper coins, seemingly trying to find out the reason.
But no matter how he looked at it, it was the same person; the other person had not been possessed.
Comment: [You've calculated all this way and you can't see anything anymore, can you?]
[The identity of a streamer should be quite appealing.]
Lin Xinxi saw that the middle-aged man was sweating profusely because he couldn't calculate Bai Xi's fate.
