Shen Yao ended the video call and posted a message on her account announcing a live broadcast for the next day.
The announcement immediately ignited the comments section.
Cow Dung on a Slope: See? I told you this blogger must be looking for different content each time to attract viewers. Now that she's built up popularity, she's definitely planning to do live commerce.
Marrying a Rich and Beautiful Woman: Haha, waiting for the fans' hearts to break tomorrow.
Secret: Two Choices: Absolutely not! I finally found a blogger who suits my taste. Please don't do live commerce!
Still Me First: Our blogger is definitely not that kind of person...
Little did Shen Yao know, her few close friends, angered by the negative comments about her, stepped in to defend her.
Wang Qianqian, in particular, a streamer with millions of followers, got into an argument with someone, which was then posted on V Station.
It instantly drew everyone's attention. Wang Qianqian, a prominent figure, was consistently defending the blogger named Striving for a Lazy Life. It appeared they not only knew each other but were also quite familiar.
Consequently, Wang Qianqian's public defense with her main account became a trending topic, catching the eyes of more people who became curious about who this "Striving for a Lazy Life" was and what her relationship with Wang Qianqian was.
Especially upon seeing that Shen Yao had mentioned a live broadcast for the next day, many followed Shen Yao, eager to witness the drama unfold online.
By the time Wang Qianqian realized she had used her main account for the confrontation, it was too late. But if asked whether she regretted it?
No. Wang Qianqian immediately created an alternate account and continued her verbal sparring.
As for Shen Yao, she was currently discussing a matter with her family.
Over the past half-month, with Shen Yao's spiritual spring water, the Shen family members had seen their minor ailments disappear one by one.
Their physical condition at this point was entirely capable of withstanding the baptism of the spiritual spring water.
That's right, Shen Yao planned to use the spiritual spring water for everyone in the Shen family tonight for marrow cleansing.
In this world, spiritual energy was depleted, so cleansing the marrow wasn't for cultivation. However, the benefits of such a process were unimaginable.
Shen Yao, in front of them, took out large, red apples from her space one by one.
Then, the entire Shen family froze, no one daring to believe what they were seeing.
"Yao, Yaoyao, don't, don't do this."
Shen's mother, Song Qiuwan, lunged towards Shen Yao in a panic, quickly stopping her actions.
Her heart was in turmoil at that moment; she was genuinely terrified.
They had sensed the changes in Shen Yao from the very first day she returned home.
No parents would fail to understand their own child, especially one they had watched grow from infancy.
Thus, they worried and feared, but none of them voiced it.
With the advancement of the internet over the years, various TV dramas and movies had been playing out themes of transmigration, body-swapping, and possession.
The only thing they could do was pretend not to know, to carry on as if nothing had changed.
But today, Shen Yao was forcefully shattering their last semblance of fantasy.
They thought, even if the person in front of them wasn't their daughter, as long as she didn't harm Shen Yao, they were willing to treat her as their daughter (sister).
"Dad, Mom, I know you have doubts, so today I want to dispel them," Shen Yao said calmly.
Then she recounted how she was dumped at school, got drunk and bought a lottery ticket, and on her way to claim the prize, was hit and killed by a speeding sports car.
After death, she transmigrated to another world where people possessed spiritual roots, could cultivate, and had lifespans measured in centuries and millennia. She was reduced to ashes by a lightning tribulation during her ascension and then, upon opening her eyes, found herself back at the time she bought the lottery ticket.
As everyone listened to Shen Yao calmly narrate her experiences, she only focused on the amusing and interesting parts.
But everyone knew that surviving in a cultivation world was not as easy as she made it sound. Thinking of how much suffering their daughter (sister) had endured without their knowledge, everyone couldn't help but weep.
After Shen Yao comforted them for a while, they finally stopped crying.
"This, when you go to sleep tonight, each of you will drink one cup," Shen Yao said, then waved her hand, and several cups of spiritual spring water appeared on the table.
"This spiritual spring water is something I brought back from the cultivation world. Drinking it can cleanse the marrow and strengthen the body," Shen Yao explained.
"Cleanse the marrow? Can it really make one fly through the skies and burrow into the earth like in the novels?" Shen Huaisang asked, his eyes shining as he looked at Shen Yao.
Hearing Shen Huaisang's words, Shen Yao glanced at him sideways, "You're thinking too much, but... it's no problem at all to make your legs completely whole again."
Upon hearing Shen Yao's words, Shen Huaisang's expression shifted from disappointment to shock, and his entire body began to tremble.
His legs, even the military general hospital had said it was impossible to avoid sequelae, which was why he had chosen to retire.
The military had arranged other work for him, but he didn't want a desk job or to work behind the scenes, so he returned home.
If, if, could he truly hold onto hope?
Shen Jun, Song Qiuwan, Shen Huaimin, and Ning Min, hearing that what Shen Yao had brought out could restore Shen Huaisang's legs, were all happy for him.
"Yaoyao, can Yuanzi drink this?" Ning Min asked Shen Yao.
"Yes, but Yuanzi is still young and hasn't eaten much else. The amount he usually eats is sufficient. Unlike you all, who have accumulated a lot of toxins and waste in your bodies over time. This is undiluted spiritual spring water, and it will be very painful after drinking. So, you all need to consider it carefully," Shen Yao said.
"We're not afraid!"
The Shen family said in unison. This kind of thing was absolutely unique in the world. If they weren't Yaoyao's family, they would never know about such a precious item in their lives.
What was a little pain to fear?
"Alright, I'll take care of Yuanzi tonight. You all can rest assured," Shen Yao said.
Watching Shen Yao take Yuanzi upstairs, the remaining family members exchanged glances.
"None of you are to speak of this. Anyone who talks about it and implicates your little sister will have to face my wrath, regardless of family ties," Shen Jun said sternly.
"We won't, Dad," Shen Huaimin, Ning Min, and Shen Huaisang replied. This was what they had also been thinking.
Their little sister possessed such a secret. They now regretted knowing it and wished they had never found out.
Otherwise, they would be constantly worried.
"Tomorrow, ask your little sister if she has a way for us to forget about this. For now, take your spiritual spring water back to your rooms," Shen Jun said.
Upon hearing Shen Jun's words, everyone felt that Father Shen's suggestion was good. Didn't TV shows have spells for memory erasure? As long as they forgot, they wouldn't be afraid of accidentally leaking it.
Subsequently, each person, holding a cup of spiritual spring water, returned to their rooms. Everyone was extremely cautious, fearing they might accidentally drop it.
