Now this is a topic suitable for all ages; everything discussed before was just a mess!

[Harem! It must be a harem!] ×9999

[Pure love fans refuse to accept this!] ×111

[Long live Sister Erlong! I stand with the Dragon Faction!]

[Long live Sister Xiao Wu! I stand with the Dance Faction!]

[And Sister Lin! The Yu-Men Faction stands tall here!]

[Damn, where did these heretics come from? Beat this little turtle to death!]

"Love, well, when in Rome, do as the Romans do. On this point, the Heaven Dou Empire is still quite friendly toward men, or rather, toward the strong."

Chu Men shrugged, speaking with a pointed tone.

"When fate arrives, you can't stop it. I can't exactly let down someone's sincere heart, can I?

"Besides, the land beneath my feet is called the Heaven Dou Empire!"

Chu Men emphasized the word "Empire" with extra weight!

The implication was self-evident.

[He can be replaced!] ×999

[Become the Emperor? Three thousand beauties in the harem! Six six six!] ×666

[Adults make choices; the streamer is just a kid, so of course he wants it all!]

[Emperor Chu Men: Venmo me fifty, and I'll make you a founding hero of the Soul Guidance Empire!]

[Where are the kidney-tonifying pills? Advertisers, hurry up and keep up, what are you waiting for!]

"Ahem, let's move on to the next question."

Lin Xiaoyu blushed and hurriedly flipped to the next cue card. "Do you have any short-term goals? Can you give us a preview?"

Chu Men thought for a moment before saying:

"As for the Douluo Continent, I assume you've all read it, and even if you haven't, you're probably catching up now.

"In the Douluo World, strength is supreme!

"So, the main quest is just to grind levels! Then I'll research Soul Guidance technology and take some time to enjoy the scenery of this Douluo World. You've all seen it through the lens; it's quite unique, isn't it?"

[That's right! The scenery of Heaven Dou City is so immersive! A Western fantasy city with a super realistic art style!]

[I beg the streamer to take us to the Star Dou Great Forest to see the Titan Giant Ape!]

[Exactly, bring Sister Xiao Wu along and see who dares to act out of line!]

[Requesting to see the Shrek Seven Devils!]

[The person above must be a casual reader; Sister Xiao Wu is right there at the table. How could the Shrek Seven Devils be here at this time?]

Lin Xiaoyu blinked and jokingly followed Chu Men's lead, saying, "And there's also... teasing young girls?"

"Ahem, no way! I, Chu Men, am a gentleman!"

Chu Men said that with such conviction!

His face turned slightly red, and within three seconds, he softened. "I'm only sixteen this year, it's puberty... understanding is a virtue!"

A long string of disdain flooded the live stream's chat.

[The streamer has exposed himself, you old... little pervert!]

[I, Chu Men, am a gentleman! Just a bit lecherous. Hahaha, I'm dying of laughter.]

"Next question: what is your attitude toward Spirit Hall?"

"My first impression of Spirit Hall right now is... a wholesale department for Titled Douluos!"

Chu Men counted on his fingers: "The Consecration Hall alone has the so-called Seven Great Elders, and Qian Renxue seems to have two by her side, and that's just within Qian Daoliu's faction.

"You all must be familiar with Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo from last night; they should count as part of Bibi Dong's faction. I vaguely remember there were also the Demon Bear and Ghost Leopard Douluos in the original work...

"In short, apart from the reclusive Clear Sky Sect, Spirit Hall is basically performing dimensional strikes against every other power!

"It's really thanks to Bibi Dong and Qian Daoliu not getting along; otherwise, my dream of a Soul Guidance Empire would have been stillborn long ago!"

Xiao Wu continued eating her snacks, but those rabbit ears had stood straight up the moment the word "Spirit Hall" was mentioned.

[Is Spirit Hall really that exaggerated? Who could possibly beat them!]

[The second-ranked Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect only has two Titled Douluos, right!]

[I've read the original work, and what I've never understood is why Spirit Hall didn't just steamroll the Heaven Dou Empire directly, wasting such a good talent like Qian Renxue.]

"Next, I'd like to ask some business-related questions. I'm doing this on behalf of someone else, so I hope you don't mind."

"It's fine, go ahead."

Chu Men nodded. He had long expected that merchants would come knocking; this was one of the main purposes of his live stream.

"Mr. Chu Men, I am asking on behalf of a certain live streaming platform: would you be willing to authorize your live stream content for our exclusive broadcast? Of course, we can offer you the highest-tier contract, and we will certainly make you satisfied."

Lin Xiaoyu did not specify the exact profit-sharing ratio; the pie in the other world was simply too large, and a single misstep could lead to being crushed by the weight of it.

"That's not necessary, and it's not something I can control." Chu Men shook his head. "The livestream room was established by the system. I only have the right to use it; it automatically synchronizes across all global platforms, so exclusive contracts and the like are meaningless."

"Then do you have any interest in collaborating on merchandise? For example, figurines, stationery, or apparel related to Douluo Continent?" Lin Xiaoyu continued to ask. "Companies like Mouse, Penguin, and White Rabbit have all contacted the platform, willing to pay a high price for licensing!"

"As for that question, logically speaking, you should be asking Old Tang. Strictly speaking, the copyright for the real world should be in Old Tang's hands. Come to think of it, his net worth must have multiplied more than once by now!"

Lin Xiaoyu explained, "Well... rumors online suggest he's been invited for tea. After all, the novel world he wrote has become reality; it wouldn't be strange if he were specially recruited by some special department."

Chu Men shrugged, picked up the teacup on the table, and took a sip.

"The platform has another proposal: would it be possible for our artists to occasionally interact with you via livestream link-ups?"

When Lin Xiaoyu asked this, there was a hint of nervousness, though she didn't even notice it herself.

"To me, linking up to the real world is just like coming home."

Chu Men looked at Lin Xiaoyu on the screen, his eyes filled with a hazy tenderness.

"I still hope that every time I come home, it's a familiar face opening the door."

[Holy crap, what does that mean? I don't get it.]

[Good lad, you actually dare to flirt with our Lin Xiaoyu? You've got guts!]

[Every time he comes home, he hopes it's you opening the door! This is too sweet! I'm shipping it, I'm shipping it!]

[The Yu-Men Faction is officially established! Everyone, sign up quickly, first come, first served!]

[Lin Xiaoyu, don't you dare blush for real! My heart is breaking; my Lin Xiaoyu is being snatched away!]

Lin Xiaoyu was quick-witted, and precisely because of that, a flush of red instantly spread from her cheeks to her earlobes.

She frantically flipped through her cue cards, only to turn to the wrong page. It took her a long time to steady her mind, though her voice still carried a trace of agitation: "Next, next are some personal questions."

[Hahahaha, this progress bar is moving way too fast!]

[Nothing has even happened yet, and we're already at personal questions, tsk tsk tsk!]

[Lin Xiaoyu is shy, how cute! Chu Men, you're such a smooth talker!]

"This was part of the pre-arranged schedule!" Lin Xiaoyu took a deep breath, trying hard to calm herself down, and asked, "Do you often feel in danger while in the Douluo World?"

This was a question she had come up with herself.

"Heaven Dou City is the capital of the empire, after all, and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect is right nearby, so it's relatively safe."

After recalling for a moment, Chu Men added, "But it's not absolutely safe. In the original work, wasn't Tang San intercepted by Dugu Bo?"

Lin Xiaoyu hesitated for a moment before asking the question she most wanted to know, a hypothetical one:

"If you had the chance, have you ever thought about returning to the real world? After all, this is your home, isn't it?"
