Looking at Aluf, who remained arrogant and unaware of the danger, Ning An sighed.
"Human incense offerings greatly benefit the celestial immortals, especially the Divine Invitation Incense, which is considered the finest among offerings."
"Immortals naturally want to help you fulfill your wishes when they partake of such incense, but this is generally true only for regular incense burners."
"For someone like you, who slapped the immortals' faces from the start and made insincere wishes, the ancestors might grant your wish out of respect for the incense, but the manner of fulfillment is uncertain."
"There's still time to turn back now, possibly."
To be honest.
People like him, lacking in moral virtue, were those Ning An wished would face retribution sooner.
But these days, the responses to the system's read receipts mostly lacked positivity.
If
After listening to Ning An's speech, the audience in front of the screen was stunned.
"Holy crap, I got goosebumps all over; these ethereal immortals sound so real."
"Hah, I can't watch this anymore. If the host feels guilty, just admit it. Who makes up stuff like this?"
"This is so absurd. Facing impending doom and still bluffing."
Aluf paused for a moment, then burst into uncontrollable laughter.
"Little Daoist, it has come to this, there's no need to keep being so mysterious. After today, let's see what right you have to speak to me!"
"By then, I indeed might not have the right to speak to you."
"After all, the Divine Invitation Incense is like forcing immortals to eat; being sincere is one thing, but force-feeding them like this, even the heavens might punish you."
Ning An's expression was perhaps too serious and his tone too earnest that many viewers were left in awe.
The bullet screen was quiet for a few seconds before someone posted two screenshots.
"I thought of this earlier, look, don't Brother Lao Tuo and Aluf have almost the exact same expression and demeanor when offering incense?"
"Yeah, it's not just the expression; even the posture is similar. My god, is Aluf going to be executed too?"
The direction of the bullet screen subtly changed, and Ning An's fans became even more convinced.
However, most of Aluf's fans still remained skeptical and dismissive.
"It's a waste for you guys to have gone to college if you're willing to believe everything except for the truth."
"Don't be ridiculous, individual cases shouldn't be generalized. Do you believe in immortals, or do you trust me when I say I'll one-vs-fifty you guys?"
"Upstairs, I believe you, because today's Thursday."
Aluf also sneered:
"I know what you mean, aren't you talking about that anti-human trafficking Brother Lao Tuo? In my life, although I haven't done any good deeds, I've certainly never done anything heinous!"
He glanced at the bullet screen, further solidifying his thoughts:
"You want me to retreat in the face of difficulty? I refuse to meet your expectations! By tomorrow, I'll smash your crappy temple to pieces!"
Ning An shook his head and sighed:
"If Changchun Temple is gone, it just means finding another place to live for me."
"On the other hand, considering you, there's no sign of the three main gods of luck, prosperity, and wealth in your fate. A weak life chart like yours means you're likely facing small misfortunes constantly. Judging by your life path, you probably had a car accident."
Gulp!
The smile on Aluf's face faded, and he swallowed nervously.
The bullet screen zipped by rapidly.
"Two weeks ago, Aluf went home for Qingming to pay respects to his ancestors and donated 200,000 to a local nursing home. As a result, because the road was slippery due to rain, someone rear-ended him. Didn't this make the news?"
"Yes, it was trending for several days back then. Anyone online could see that trending topic."
"Are hosts now making their scams this realistic?"
Aluf tried to maintain his composure while looking at the bullet screen, then calmed down.
The fleeting trace of panic on his face turned to anger as he sneered, turning to glare at Ning An:
"You little Daoist, did you investigate me in advance?"
"Investigate your sister!"
Ning An got angry too, looking at Aluf with a disdainful gaze.
"Duan Yunpeng, I'm giving you one last chance. Your life is now entirely in your hands."
"Your life chart is already on the verge of collapse, surrounded by bad luck. Believe it or don't, it's up to you."
Seeing Ning An's imposing presence, even without anger, Aluf couldn't help but feel conflicted.
Originally, he didn't plan to debunk Changchun Temple.
Unexpectedly, though, the company he was with suddenly faced a financial crisis and could no longer sustain his streaming popularity.
For a streamer like him, who wasn't at the top level within the company, there were only two options.
Either transform into a product-selling host to quickly replenish the company's funds or grow his fanbase to a higher level to demonstrate potential to the company.
Aluf was naturally reluctant to change his account's direction.
After all, in his years of debunking scams, he had privately earned untold amounts of quick cash behind the company's back. How could he bear to give up this money tree?
As a result, he was willing to connect crazily with Changchun Temple, regardless of fear, which was the reason for his determination to debunk.
"The host across from me has such a sharp gaze; I'm genuinely scared."
"Me too. What's the point of deceiving to this extent, to the point of deceiving oneself? Boo-hoo, I'm really starting to believe."
"Haha, haven't you seen enough hosts who deceive to the point that they even trick themselves? Didn't you learn anything from the bird's nest incident?"
"But he's just asking Aluf to turn back. What could he possibly deceive him about? Aluf, just go back. You won't lose anything!"
"No losses? The 'king of debunking' being scared off by some imaginary life chart would be laughable. As long as he's in this field, it'll be a lifelong stain!"
The bullet screen was all over the place, with all sorts of comments.
Aluf's mind was in turmoil, and he took a deep breath.
"Stop trying to scare me with this life chart nonsense. The Great Qing dynasty has long fallen! Feudal superstitions ended a long time ago!"
"As a debunking host, I've seen it all. Good luck trying to fool me! I'm moving forward, and if my wish doesn't come true today, damn it, I'll chase you to the ends of the earth!"
With these words, Aluf picked up his phone and walked boldly toward the national road, without any fear of whether Ning An would stay or go.
He had already made up his mind.
He'd directly take a taxi home and go nowhere else.
He couldn't believe anything would happen today!
However, the Ghost-Collecting Incense had been burnt.
How could it let him succeed in his wish?
While he was confidently walking alongside the enemies in the livestream, a faint swishing sound reached his ears.
"A snake?"
Aluf immediately became alert, cautiously looking around.
After all, the deep mountain where Changchun Temple was located was no stranger to small animals.
But after waiting for a while, the sound grew louder, yet no movement was seen in the grass.
So, Aluf continued his cautious trek.
For him, safely getting home and staying there for a day was most important!
Suddenly.
A luxury sports car zipped across the livestream, catching Aluf's attention instantly.
He grinned obsequiously:
"Thank you, Foster Father, thank you for sending a sports car."
That viewer instantly sent another comment.
"Host, look up. What's that not far above your head? It's colorful. Point your camera so I can take a look."
"Above my head?"
Aluf was puzzled but changed the camera angle anyway.
After all, adjusting a minor angle for a sports car was well worth it!
He also looked up because he was curious about what caught the viewer's attention so much.
Just as he looked up the next second.
Aluf suddenly was aghast:
"Damn! Where did that meteor come from!"
