Chapter 52: Never Seen Anyone This Poor
Seeing Han Tian emerge carrying a black pig, Zhou Xiao was stunned.
“What the hell are you holding?”
Han Tian first reminded her, “You’re live broadcasting, have some manners. This should be a black wild boar. I just found it inside, and it’s injured.”
Zhou Xiao’s eyes widened when she saw the black wild boar. “A wild boar? It’s so black I almost didn’t recognize it, heavens!”
Her tone carried a hint of surprise. “How did you know I was just thinking about eating pork?” As she spoke, she licked her lips. “Speaking of which, I haven’t had roast suckling pig in ages.”
As soon as she finished speaking, the black wild boar in Han Tian’s arms seemed to understand, its body trembling uncontrollably.
“Heh, this little guy can understand?” Han Tian had brought it back intending to fatten it up and slaughter it. He smiled and said, “Alright, I just threw a Blood Replenishing Pill at it. Its wound is already healed. I can’t waste my pills, so I’ll keep it for now. I’ve never seen such a black wild boar. I’ve been looking through the Demonic Beast Compendium these past few days, and I haven’t seen a wild boar like this. It’s just for novelty.”
Zhou Xiao’s eyes widened. “What? You actually fed it a Blood Replenishing Pill? That’s a Low-grade Spirit Stone, you prodigal son!”
Han Tian replied, “It’s fine. I’ll just collect more wild Spirit Herbs and Demonic Beasts to sell. If that doesn’t work, I’ll buy Points from Fan Guozhou.”
Zhou Xiao sighed. “Amazing. The Pay-to-win System hasn’t even launched yet, and you’re already acting like a pay-to-win player.”
Big Shots who pay to win are always amazing, no matter where they are.
The Bullet Comments were no longer debating whether the game was real or not.
The special effects were so realistic that it could be watched like a drama series.
【 Hahahaha, I’ve never seen a wild boar this black before. It’s quite lively. I wonder which special effects company made it. This technology is too amazing. If movies had this special effects technology, would Huaxia still be unable to produce good Xianxia blockbusters? 】
【 What was that called that was just fed to the wild boar? After one dose, the wound visibly healed. Isn’t that unscientific? 】
【 Is it sick to talk about science in a Cultivation world? 】
【 I knew it. The first thing I thought of when I saw this wild boar was roast suckling pig. 】
【 I’d like to see what kind of trick the streamer is up to. 】
The special effects were brilliant, but the process was too boring.
Han Tian and his group were on the road the entire time. Even as a novelty, it became tiresome.
After the initial sensation passed, the number of viewers in Han Tian’s Live Broadcast began to drop sharply, but he still managed to retain about 100,000 online viewers.
That number of live broadcast viewers was still quite terrifying.
Regardless, Han Tian had become a major live broadcast influencer thanks to this trending topic.
If he continued to broadcast with this quality, many viewers would still follow it, even if they watched it as a plot-driven drama.
Of course, there were also some who swore they would find a flaw in Han Tian’s live broadcast.
Only those who were genuinely investigating this live broadcast were starting to sweat profusely.
Han Tian didn’t care about this. As long as he retained viewers, his live broadcast task would be completed.
Compared to Han Tian’s live broadcast and his boring journey.
Wu Dahu and other Players, however, experienced a different scenery.
They brought the new Daoist Priest and departed even earlier than Han Tian. Compared to Han Tian’s leisurely broadcast, they used Spiritual Energy to travel to gain double Points. When they were almost depleted, they rested on the way and soon arrived within the large area of First Mountain.
First Order Demonic Beasts were already appearing frequently here, just like when Song Jiulai first arrived.
Wu Dahu and the others also encountered the corpse of a Toad Snake, a First Order Demonic Beast that shouldn’t have appeared in this area.
The group stopped abruptly.
Because next to the Toad Snake’s corpse, there was a clean-looking Disciple from another Sect meditating and recovering Spiritual Energy.
The person wore a simple and elegant white robe, but with peach blossoms embroidered on the collar.
Wu Dahu and the others had never seen it but had heard of it.
It was likely a Disciple from the Peach Blossom Sect from another Town.
Judging by the Aura they exuded, they were definitely one level higher than them.
The person sensed their presence and immediately opened their eyes.
They looked very young. Most disciples at this stage on the Yunzhou Continent were around A Wu’s age, at most fourteen or fifteen years old.
At this moment, seeing the four unfamiliar Cultivators who had suddenly appeared before them, they frowned slightly.
Although it was easy to tell if someone was a Cultivator at a glance, on the Yunzhou Continent, anyone who practiced Cultivation had a certain ethereal aura.
Only these four in front of them.
Staring at him, their eyes were appraising, and their expressions revealed a hint of lewdness.
In short, it made him very uncomfortable.
Did these four intend to do something?
Just as they were about to speak, they suddenly saw a man with an ordinary appearance walk out. He strangely made a cupped-fist salute towards him. “Esteemed Senior Brother, we are Disciples of the Longevity Sect from Fei Que Mountain. May we ask if this Toad Snake was slain by Senior Brother?”
Lu Rongyu was somewhat speechless.
On the Yunzhou Continent, there was indeed a difference in Cultivator ranks. Generally, lower-ranked Cultivators would avoid higher-ranked ones and rarely approach them directly.
Unless they knew each other.
Moreover, the way these four were looking at him felt somewhat offensive.
Never mind, he had a good temper and wouldn’t bicker with these Disciples.
However, he had never heard of the Longevity Sect, a Small Sect.
Thinking this, Lu Rongyu’s reply was somewhat cold. “Is there anyone else here?”
The one who stepped forward to speak was the Daoist Priest.
From the initial astonishment upon entering the Game to the Cultivators he saw now, he couldn’t help but sigh.
Even the NPCs were so individualistic.
The intelligence of this Game was truly amazing!
Of course, even if one hasn’t eaten pork, one has seen pigs run. He had read many Cultivation novels and knew about these rank differences.
However, seeing that Lu Rongyu didn’t seem to have a particularly bad temper, the Daoist Priest shamelessly continued, “Esteemed Senior Brother, are you planning to head to First Mountain?”
“…”
Lu Rongyu became even more speechless. “Yes.”
The Daoist Priest scratched his head, seemingly embarrassed. “Esteemed Senior Brother, we are also out for Training, but we are not very familiar with this path. May we accompany Senior Brother to First Mountain? Once we reach a place with sufficient Demonic Beasts, we will part ways with Senior Brother.”
Lu Rongyu was dumbfounded.
What kind of Disciples were these? Not only were they thick-skinned, but they also didn’t do their homework before going out.
“Don’t you even remember the basic route when you go out for Training? How can you be so reckless and still dare to go out for Training? Doesn’t your Sect have guiding Masters?”
The Daoist Priest gave a wry smile. “Esteemed Senior Brother, to be honest, our Sect only has a Sect Master and a Senior Disciple Brother. We don’t have any Masters. Even when we came out for Training, we had to ask for directions along the way.”
Wu Dahu and Ma Xiaoniao exchanged glances subtly.
Amazing, brother.
That lie was quite something.
Lu Rongyu was indeed somewhat shocked.
He had seen poor Sects before, but he had never seen one this poor!
