She's on fire! The Empress is on fire!
Over the next few days, Long Yue, under the guise of the Empress, became a sensation across major video platforms.
Rumors about this Empress were everywhere. Some said she painted the vast Immortal Realm in an ink-wash style with just a brush and paper. Others claimed she single-handedly defeated dozens of Go masters. Yet others hailed her as an unprecedented gaming prodigy, capable of going from novice to expert in just a day or two!
As everyone knows, netizens love a good spectacle. People were naturally curious if the rumors were true, and countless viewers flocked to her stream.
For the past few days, Long Yue, as the Empress, had been holding court in her livestream, accepting all sorts of challenges from everyone.
The challenges ranged from initial Go matches to painting competitions, and later even various one-on-one gaming duels.
No matter the game, she always started off incredibly clumsy, completely like a novice encountering a game for the first time. But after gradually getting the hang of it, she would show astonishing improvement, going from being utterly thrashed to winning with ease.
After that, her opponents found it incredibly difficult to win against her again.
Once she lost a challenge, she would immediately start studying everything about that game, cramming combos and advanced techniques.
Any technique she saw even once, she could replicate perfectly.
From a novice who didn't even recognize the skills to replicating complex maneuvers to turn the tables, she did it in less than half a day at her fastest! Just like the rumors said, a gaming genius!
It was precisely this heaven-defying gaming talent, combined with her flawless Empress persona, that propelled her to viral fame. Stories and rumors about her spread like wildfire online.
Her livestream grew more and more popular and lively over these past few days, with her follower count skyrocketing like a rocket.
Yesterday she had a hundred thousand followers, and today she had nearly two hundred thousand!
Her all-around skills and talent had completely won over everyone in the livestream.
The initial mockery and skepticism had gradually transformed into cheers and praise.
At this point, whether she was truly the Empress or just maintaining a fake persona, her near-omnipotent, Empress-level performance had earned her the title.
Of course, besides her incredible talent and strength, another factor contributed to people accepting her claim of being the Empress.
It was her unwavering dedication to proving herself as the Empress and her actions, which perfectly fit the persona.
When she first started streaming and claimed to be the Empress, people either mocked her or dismissed it as just a character setting, something to be heard and forgotten.
However, regardless of the doubts and ridicule, she repeatedly and persistently insisted she was the Empress. Her clumsiness and ignorance of the real world in various situations perfectly fit the character.
Her naivete seemed natural, not forced or for show, which paradoxically made for even better entertainment.
This made the viewers in the livestream start to feel as if she might actually be an Empress who had fallen from the Immortal Realm, utterly clueless about everything...
For example, there was one time she got stuck inside a wall in a game, unable to move, and helplessly asked the chat for help.
Someone in the chat told her: [Press Alt+F4 repeatedly, it'll fix the game bug.]
To everyone's surprise, she actually believed it and, without any hesitation, pressed Alt+F4 repeatedly as instructed. The game immediately closed.
When the game screen suddenly vanished, she tilted her head, looking utterly bewildered. She blinked blankly for several seconds before finally realizing what happened.
"Huh? Where did this Empress's game go?"
This scene had the viewers in the livestream roaring with laughter.
Upon realizing she'd been tricked, she angrily searched the livestream for the person who posted the comment, which only made everyone laugh even harder.
Now, everyone had grown accustomed to Long Yue's self-proclaimed title. The chat was filled with "Your Majesty the Empress" and a constant stream of gifts.
[Your Majesty the Empress, which game are you planning to dominate the mortals in next?]
[Your Majesty the Empress, Your Majesty the Empress, scold me please!]
[Your Majesty the Empress, how can you be so good at everything, so amazing!]
[Your Majesty the Empress, is there anything you can't do?]
[…]
"Thank you, thank you, mortals, for the gifts you've sent this Empress. This Empress will remember your kindness!"
Looking at the nearly one hundred thousand viewers in the livestream and the unending flow of gifts, Long Yue couldn't stop smiling. With a grand gesture, she promised:
"When this Empress regains her cultivation one day, I will not forget the help you mortals have given me. I shall bestow upon you the immortal destinies you've always dreamed of~!"
"Just ask for whatever you desire~"
[Is that true, Your Majesty the Empress? I want to get rich!]
[Your Majesty the Empress, Your Majesty the Empress, I want eternal life!]
[Your Majesty the Empress, just give me a beauty pill, make me handsome!]
[Your Majesty the Empress, can I have you? (heart emoji)]
[Your Majesty the Empress, I'm not greedy, I don't want wealth or long life, just send me to the Hehuan Sect~]
[…]
In the livestream, the crowd egged her on, responding to Long Yue's words.
Long Yue smiled as she watched the endless stream of comments scrolling across the screen, generously promising:
"Mere wealth and riches, or eternal life, are nothing difficult for this Empress. Changing appearances is also not a hard task. I've noted down all your requests~"
"As for those of you who wish to enter the Hehuan Sect..."
As Long Yue spoke, she paused, her eyes narrowing, and sternly warned:
"The Hehuan Sect is not the wonderful place you imagine. The demonic women there cultivate wicked Hehuan secret arts. They are best at absorbing the essence and yang energy of men, harming others' vitality and lives!"
"Ordinary mortals, after just one or two sessions of dual cultivation with a Hehuan Sect woman, will be drained into shriveled husks!"
"And with that, you still want to go?"
After saying this, Long Yue's lips curved upward slightly, revealing a playful smile.
She thought her words would be enough to scare everyone away, but she didn't expect the livestream chat to become even more enthusiastic:
[Go, go, go! Definitely going!] [Suck me dry!] [Such a dangerous thing, you all step back, let me go first!] [Just kidding, I've been practicing pure yang virgin cultivation for twenty years, I can at least last ten times!] [Hmph, those Hehuan Sect demonic women just haven't met me yet! Otherwise, I'll make sure they regret coming!] […]
Looking at the eager bullet comments in the livestream chat, Long Yue couldn't help but show a look of disdain and confusion.
Why did she suddenly find it hard to understand the mortals of this world…
In the past, on the Immortal-Demon Continent, as soon as anyone heard of Hehuan demonic women, even the most lecherous men would flee in terror. Yet these people were all incredibly brave and eager to try…
Are the men in this world all this courageous…?
Lin Fan silently watched Long Yue interact with the bullet comments with a serious expression, finding it both amusing and exasperating.
It was clear that everyone in the chat was just taking her words as a joke and playing along, deliberately teasing her. Only she, in the entire venue, was serio
