Urban Cultivation with a Demonic System-Chapter 62: What Does It Mean to Go All-In Up Close?
After refining the Blue Pill, Su Yuan returned to the cafeteria of Taihua High School, which had already closed for the day, and started live streaming with Chen Nuoyi and Yin Qiyue.
However, after a few days of streaming, even Su Yuan was running out of interesting content.
Thankfully, the presence of the two eye-catching beauties, Yin Qiyue and Chen Nuoyi, kept the stream’s popularity from plummeting.
While the three were energetically promoting products, a special effect comment from the user "Hongru Witch" floated across the screen.
"The roast goose made by the streamer was delicious. Can you come to my place to handle a Foundation Establishment Stage ingredient?"
Staring at the comment, Su Yuan paused for a moment, then replied:
"The streamer hasn’t handled Foundation Establishment Stage ingredients before, so I can’t guarantee success, and there are no plans to make house calls for goose..."
But before Su Yuan could finish, a magnificently modeled, impressive battleship sped across the stream!
The moment the battleship appeared, the stream’s viewership shot up crazily, accompanied by a flood of "WTF" comments!
All three of them were stunned.
Having streamed for so long, they naturally understood the price tier of gifts in the stream.
This battleship was the most expensive gift in the Qi Cultivation Version of Miao Yin Live Stream, valued at a staggering 200,000 as a Star Destroyer!
Even though the platform would take half of the tips, the streamer could still pocket a solid 100,000!
This was no small amount!
Even Sect Leader Qiyue, with over 200,000 followers, had never seen such a hefty gift.
After being dazed for quite a while and repeatedly reminded by the stream comments, the three finally snapped back to their senses and quickly thanked the top-ranking generous donor.
Whose account name was none other than the one who just spoke: "Hongru Witch"!
Following that, another casual comment from Hongru Witch floated across the screen:
"The Star Destroyer is for the chef alone, coming or not?"
"No problem! Please quickly PM me your location! I’m on my way!"
Su Yuan responded without hesitation.
Joking aside, that’s a straight-up 100,000 in hand! Whatever the generous patron says goes!
It’s just a matter of making goose, never mind goose, even making duck (meaning Peking duck) would be fine!
What about dealing with a Foundation Establishment Stage ingredient?
He couldn’t handle it alone, but wouldn’t there be Foundation Establishment Stage experts at the patron’s house? Have them suppress the ingredient, problem solved?
As long as the money’s right, there’s always a way.
Soon, Yin Qiyue’s account received a PM from Hongru Witch.
The three read the message, which contained an address in Taihua City’s most prosperous area and specified that Su Yuan go alone.
"Su Yuan, are you sure you want to go alone? Could it be dangerous?"
Chen Nuoyi asked with some concern.
After thinking for a moment, Su Yuan replied:
"It should be okay, so many viewers are watching the stream, even the richest big shot wouldn’t dare act recklessly."
"I’ll also report back to you after I arrive, maybe even start a live stream right there."
"Besides, you guys are outside. If anything goes wrong, just call the police."
After hearing this analysis, Chen Nuoyi nodded, feeling much more reassured.
Su Yuan explained the situation to the stream’s viewers, packed the essential herbs and sauces for roasting goose, and headed to the generous patron’s residence.
Before leaving, he didn’t forget to promote his own account, saying he might use it to go live later, which ramped up his followers significantly.
...
In a luxury flat within a posh estate in Taihua City Center, Taibai Yuxi cradled her phone while gazing out at the city nightscape from the floor-to-ceiling windows, her bright golden eyes glimmering with anticipation.
Idly sipping tea in the living room, Taibai Phecda looked at his daughter with some helplessness and said:
"Yuxi, what kind of chef has an appearance fee of 200,000? Even a Foundation Establishment Stage Star Chef costs about that much."
"And why do we have to provide our own ingredients? Are you sure you’re not being scammed?"
Taibai Yuxi replied without turning her head:
"Don’t worry, Daddy, it’ll definitely be worth it."
Taibai Phecda: "..."
Do you really believe that?
A quarter of an hour later, the security, who had been informed in advance, relayed that the chef had arrived.
On her tiptoes, Taibai Yuxi dashed to the door, full of anticipation.
With a crisp "ding-dong" sound of the doorbell, Taibai Yuxi immediately opened the door.
"Is this... is this the home of the Hongru Witch?"
As soon as the door opened, Su Yuan nervously inquired.
It was his first time visiting such a high-end community.
In a posh estate like this, the security staff are Foundation Establishment Level veterans of the Security Realm, capable of suppressing any delivery guy.
Of course, the luminaries living here usually wouldn’t order takeout anyway.
But after he asked, Su Yuan realized the doorway was empty.
He paused for a moment, his gaze slowly lowered, meeting the eyes of a white-haired lolita.
Taibai Yuxi flashed a mischievous grin.
Su Yuan: "..."
So you are the Hongru Witch?
Witch you may be, but where’s the scholar in you?
What a letdown!
Would you believe it if I accused you of fraud?
However, no matter what, this person was still the patron who had gifted him 200,000. Even if she was a familiar face, he couldn’t be neglectful.
Furthermore... Su Yuan had already sensed a faint murderous aura emanating from the living room! It felt like needles on his back!
That was the killing intent from an old father!
"Um, Yuxi, if you wanted me to make roast goose for you, you could’ve just said so. No need for such lavish spending."
Su Yuan chuckled awkwardly.
In his heart, a fleeting thought—if money must be given, wouldn’t it be better to hand it over offline, allowing him to earn an extra 100,000?
Taibai Yuxi pouted slightly, her expression a bit aggrieved:
"Big brother, we agreed to be together, but since we parted last time, you’ve never come to see me."
"Every night, I can only watch helplessly as you stream with other women, while I fall asleep alone in loneliness."
"Big brother, have you forgotten our past vows of eternal love?"
Su Yuan: "..."
He stiffly looked up, seeing that Taibai Phecda had already, like a ghost, silently appeared at the entrance, his face as dark as the bottom of a pot.
Stop, stop!
If you keep talking, I might just drop dead here.
When did we ever have some vow of eternal love?
How did I not see it before? You’re worse at unjust accusations than a crooked system!
"Um, Master Taibai, let me explain."
Su Yuan braced himself, wanting to defend himself slightly.
But before he could speak, Taibai Yuxi had already turned around, casting a glare at her father:
"Daddy, what are you doing? You’re scaring brother Su Yuan!"
Taibai Phecda: "..."
Under his daughter’s glaring gaze, the expression of this Master Golden Core quickly became gentle.
But Su Yuan felt even more rattled.
He had a strong feeling that beneath Taibai Phecda’s calm demeanor lay a fury, like a dormant volcano, ready to erupt at any moment.
