Chapter 413: Chapter 235: The Little Toad Clings to Changchun Temple’s Incense—Is It Tired of Living Too Long? (2)
Ning An was initially all perked up, thinking there was finally someone relevant to his field here, but the next sentence from the love-struck mind left Ning An utterly bewildered.
"No, I just want to see if he still loves me."
Hearing this, not only Ning An but even the well-informed netizens in the live stream were caught off guard.
"Is this... the power of love?"
"Falling for an eight thousand yuan love scam, isn’t that a bit too cheap?"
"Yeah, didn’t they all say love is priceless? I say eight thousand is too little; that guy should’ve swindled her for eighty thousand to make it truly unforgettable."
"..."
The live stream chat was bustling, and Ning An sipped his tea while watching the stream, feeling quite amused.
At this moment, a somewhat breathless voice came from outside the temple:
"Brother Sect Leader, are you there?"
Hearing this, Ning An was a bit curious.
After all, it was almost dark, and the Daoist Temple was about to close. Hardly anyone would choose this time to come and offer incense.
Putting down his teacup, Ning An looked up and saw a vibrant young male student appear before him.
Before the student could speak, Ning An noticed that the comments in the live stream went into chaos instantly.
With just a glance, Ning An was overpowered by the comments filled with intense emotions.
Looking at the student in front of him, Ning An pointed to the comments and curiously laughed, saying:
"Did you blow up the bathrooms in Jing Country? How come they all seem to know you?"
"Cough, cough, cough."
"Well, not exactly, but it seems to have had a similar effect."
The college student, who was Li Yang, explained with a wry smile.
Having nothing better to do, Ning An opened the Dharma Eye and checked his Life Chart.
His Life Chart was fair with a tinge of yellow, with the deities of fortune, prosperity, and longevity firmly in place. Though not one destined for great wealth, he was not fated for disaster either.
However, seeing the reaction on the live stream and the deep frown lines on his forehead, it seemed a bit contradictory to Ning An’s assessment.
What could have happened to create such an interesting phenomenon?
Curiously, Ning An pondered while Li Yang raised his voice: "Brother Sect Leader, can I still make a wish now?"
Ning An snapped back to reality, gestured him to proceed: "Of course you can, please go ahead."
"Alright, thank you, Brother Sect Leader."
Receiving the lit trio of incense sticks, Li Yang respectfully placed them in the incense burner, silently making his wish.
As he bowed and made his wish, a system panel appeared above his head.
[Gender: Male]
[Occupation: College Student]
[Name: Li Yang]
[Wish: To give a painful price to those who slandered me!]
[Wild method of granting the wish: An hour later, another girl wronged by Zhang Xiaodan releases a video from another angle, directly proving that all Zhang Xiaodan’s words and actions were slander!
Seeing the tide of public opinion turning online, the illicit forces swiftly cut their losses and left the mess behind, using information about Li Yang all leaked by Zhang Xiaodan!
However, mediated by the college leaders, the girl who slandered Li Yang for sexual harassment begrudgingly agreed to Li Yang’s conditions, apologizing and barely reaching a reconciliation!
But......]
Seeing this abrupt ellipsis, Ning An felt both speechless and helpless.
This system, who did it learn from? It keeps things hidden even from him, the host, forcing him to follow the incense burner’s lead to know what happens next.
This is just too much!
Taking advantage of Li Yang’s entrance into the hall to make his wish, Ning An quickly inquired in the live stream, trying to figure out what was going on.
In Ning An’s live stream, there were either naïve college students or middle-aged and older people; not many were female fighters. The truth of the matter quickly surfaced amidst the lively discussion of the netizens.
After hearing the whole story, Ning An was dumbfounded, incredulous:
"Saved someone from drowning, and the rescued party not only didn’t show gratitude but instead turned around to slander their savior?"
Not asking, not knowing; once asked, it was startling!
Not just Ning An, but many middle-aged viewers in the live stream were stunned.
Having lived all these years, it felt as though they hadn’t really lived at all; such outrageous actions wouldn’t occur even once in a hundred years before!
As soon as Li Yang came out of the temple, his phone rang before he could speak to Ning An.
"Oh, oh, oh, okay, I’ll go back right away."
Hanging up the call, Li Yang sighed helplessly, turning to say goodbye: "Brother Sect Leader, there’s an urgent matter at school, I have to leave for now, I’ll come back later to fulfill my wish."
"Oh, no problem, do you mind if I tag along? The Daoist Temple is about to close anyway." Ning An looked at him, smiling as he spoke.
Li Yang, who was about to leave, paused upon hearing this and then turned with excitement in his voice: "Brother Sect Leader, really! Then, of course, no problem at all!"
The human heart is like this; making a wish at the Changchun Temple, known for its efficacy, and having a disciple of the temple’s Immortal accompanying you – it makes the wish fulfillment seem much more assured!
Ning An understood this truth, which is why he offered to ask.
With a little tidying, Ning An closed the door, picked up the streaming equipment, and headed down the mountain with Li Yang.
Meanwhile, in the Mechanical College’s conference room, several uniformed police officers had begun understanding the situation with everyone.
Before much was said, Zhang Xiaodan once again resorted to her old tricks, tears dropping like pearls, sounding extremely wronged, tearfully complaining:
