Chapter 49: Hello Everyone, Welcome to Yunzhou Continent
Song Jiulai: ?
The System didn’t say this when she arrived!
System: “I said this place was safe, but I didn’t say it would *always* be safe.”
Song Jiulai: “…You’re really not human.”
System: “You don’t need to repeat the facts, it just makes you sound verbose.”
“……”
Scoundrel!
Song Jiulai’s voice was now tinged with genuine fear: “A Demonic Beast riot, is it what I think it is?”
Shui Ping nodded: “Every few decades, Cave Demon Valley experiences some riotous events that can lead to invasions of cultivator territories. Although Mighty Cultivators will intervene promptly, once a riot occurs, we are at the border of Cave Demon Valley. If the Myriad Immortal Sect’s people don’t arrive immediately, Wang’an County is easily impacted by Demonic Beasts…”
And the Demonic Beasts leading the charge will be Tier 5 or higher. Not to mention, First Mountain itself has a Tier 7 Demonic Beast guarding it.
That’s not something the people of Wang’an County can resist.
“It’s been thirty years since the last Demonic Beast riot… Of course, it might not happen.” Seeing Song Jiulai’s expression, Shui Ping added, “I haven’t experienced one in my lifetime.”
Song Jiulai: “…”
You’re talking nonsense, you’re only fifteen!
You weren’t even born thirty years ago during the last riot!
The more it was mentioned, the more Song Jiulai felt like the Yunzhou Continent had activated some kind of Instance. Anything she knew about wasn’t good.
Shui Ping, however, was quite philosophical: “If it truly comes, it’s our fate as Cultivators to face this tribulation; it’s all predetermined. Besides, Myriad Immortal Sect has set up a Guardian Formation here, so they’ll detect any anomalies quickly. You don’t need to worry about these things.”
“……”
Then why did you tell me!
Song Jiulai pinched the bridge of her nose, not really wanting to hear this news.
But Shui Ping meant well.
Realizing she might have said something to worry Song Jiulai, Shui Ping could only stick out her tongue: “In short, Junior Sister, be careful of your safety when you go to First Mountain for training, and don’t overthink it.”
After speaking, Shui Ping left.
Immortal Worship Ceremony.
Demonic Beast riot…
It all sounds like a FLAG.
Of course, it was unrealistic for Song Jiulai to pray it wouldn’t happen.
At least postpone it for a few years!
If she could reach the Golden Core Stage or above in a few years, she could run a bit faster if something happened…
The System, at this moment, said something sensible: “You don’t need to worry too much. I checked the data when I arrived, and the probability of a major disaster happening here recently is not high.”
Song Jiulai: “You can check data?”
System: “I just calculate some probabilities through my means.”
They couldn’t really abandon Song Jiulai in a very dangerous place.
Although it was dangerous bordering Cave Demon Valley, it was actually less prone to problems than places with more Cultivators.
Given Song Jiulai’s personality when summoning Players, if she were in a Major Sect with abundant Spiritual Energy, her words could offend an entire nest of Cultivators.
Song Jiulai: “Then how long is ‘recently’ for you?”
System: “One day to one hundred years.”
Song Jiulai: “…”
She knew the System could be particularly troublesome at times.
Since she had embarked on the path of Cultivation, she decided to broaden her mindset and stick to her original plan of heading to First Mountain.
***
The Players were also ready to depart and had arranged their log-off times.
This event would require them to be up day and night, so some Players would have to work during the day and stay up late at night.
The news that Han Tian had obtained Live Broadcast permissions shocked Zhou Xiao and the others.
“You mean, the information you posted on Weibo generated buzz for the officials, so this is their reward for you?”
Han Tian nodded. He had already arranged the live broadcast with the Website and just needed to start it at the scheduled time.
Coincidentally, they were about to head to First Mountain, and the scenery along the way would surely serve as solid proof.
At this moment, Jiang Tianya also brought his cousin Xue Yao into the team. Upon hearing this, he had a thought: “Big Shot Han, the officials said you brought the trending topic. If it trends again later, will there still be Live Broadcast quotas?”
Han Tian: “I’m not too sure about that. Are you planning to broadcast too?”
Jiang Tianya shook his head: “Not to broadcast.”
Rather, he wanted to understand this Game more deeply.
He wanted to know if the Planner behind it was the person he imagined.
He also wanted to ask the Sect Master, but he was still a bit hesitant.
He and Xue Yao had already investigated Song Jiulai’s information; she was an orphan with unbelievably clean records.
Even her friends were just colleagues.
Someone born into such an environment should be somewhat reclusive.
But based on some information he gathered from calling her, Song Jiulai was actually a rather lively girl.
Furthermore, her previous major and the industry she worked in had absolutely no relation to the Game.
Jiang Tianya didn’t know what the relationship was between the Game’s Sect Master Song Jiulai and the real-life Song Jiulai.
What kind of existence was she, really?
Han Tian paused, then said, “I asked for you. The System said that Live Broadcast quotas will be redeemable with Points in the future. I got lucky this time, hitting the top trending topic.”
After all, the 1 million reward was still active.
It was quite tempting.
Jiang Tianya nodded.
“Let’s get ready to depart. It’s 8 PM now, and I’m going to start the live broadcast. In the Game, we don’t use our real faces, so it’s okay for everyone to appear on camera, right?”
Several people nodded.
Han Tian logged off briefly to confirm his Website and Game were connected, then directly started the live stream.
Meanwhile, the audience who had been waiting impatiently could no longer contain themselves.
From the moment Han Tian announced the live broadcast, many people had said they would come to debunk it.
A holographic virtual Game, coupled with the fact that no one had found any similar locations for Han Tian’s 1 million reward, made it a considerable gimmick.
Even passersby who weren’t interested in the Game were drawn in.
In an instant, the entire live stream room was flooded with one hundred thousand people.
Anyone familiar with the live streaming industry would know that this initial influx of viewers was terrifying, and more would continue to join.
After a black screen, the live streaming Website’s screen flashed, and a girl’s face appeared in the camera lens.
“How is it? Han Tian, have you started broadcasting?”
It was Zhou Xiao speaking.
Her face was sculpted with exquisite beauty, a true budding beauty.
She had recently spent some money in Wang’an County to tailor a few outfits. Her flowing white robes gave her an air of immortal grace.
When the viewers entered the live stream room, they were first struck by a beautiful face, and immediately became excited.
【Holy crap, there’s a beauty! 】
【So beautiful, so beautiful… 】
【Han Tian, you brat, aren’t you live broadcasting Cultivation? Are you afraid we’ll curse you, so you’re showing a beauty first to draw fire? 】
【This production crew is quite professional. 】
…
After the live broadcast began, Jiang Tianya quietly asked Liang Xueyao: “Did you message him?”
Liang Xueyao nodded: “I’m not sure if he’ll believe it, but I told him to have someone watch the live broadcast first.”
With their reaction speed, if there were any problems with the Game, they would quickly notice.
Jiang Tianya nodded.
Han Tian also had his own perspective in the broadcast and could adjust the camera lens with his thoughts.
He found that he could see the Players’ Bullet Comments with his naked eye, a dense stream, as if a half-screen had opened in front of him.
It didn’t hinder his gameplay.
He immediately shifted the camera lens to his own face, revealing a face that, while not meticulously groomed, was more handsome than in reality. He smiled and said.
“Hello everyone, I am Han Tian, and welcome to the Yunzhou Continent!”
