"Within a month, I'll make those who laughed at him jump out and call him Daddy." That was roughly the core of the post, just the wording was full of cringy chuunibyou (middle-schooler's disease) nonsense that made you want to look away. Just thinking about the specifics made Ye Chuxiao shudder.

People have limits, and that post definitely exceeded Ye Chuxiao's.

It was like how some people, when they remembered their emo phase, wanted to slap themselves a few times and erase the memory.

"So, a high-destiny start, while giving you good starting resources, also comes with all sorts of 'accidents'?"

"It feels like a game between the Ship of Fortune and the Will of the World. The Ship of Fortune is too brute-force, too forceful, so it wins, but the World Will wants to play dirty? To disgust and annoy people?" Ye Chuxiao speculated wildly.

Just then, the magic mirror in his hand vibrated and glowed. Ye Chuxiao tapped the surface, and Old Wang's distressed face filled the whole mirror.

"You little rascal, haven't seen you for three days, and you're already causing so much trouble. I'm telling you, keep a low profile lately, don't go making waves, cool down that heat, you hear?"

"Also, your mother has set you up with another blind date. Make time to meet her."

"She's the only daughter of Zhao Bancheng. If you can snag her, you won't have to worry for the rest of your life, you little turtle."

Ye Chuxiao calmed himself, got into character, and activated his local dialect package: "I know, Dad! Don't say anymore, our family has such a big business, do I need to eat soft rice?"

"You know nothing. Zhao Bancheng's daughter is very attractive, everyone likes her."

"I'll send you her Fei Xin number later, remember to contact her." Old Wang said, and hung up the call directly.

Ye Chuxiao sighed.

He hadn't even tasted the pleasure of being a rich second generation, and he was already tasting the bitterness?

"Forget it!"

"Blind dates, or no blind dates, that's secondary."

"The key is to act according to plan."

"Thanks to that viral mukbang (eating broadcast), I'm now a well-known internet celebrity. Once I start broadcasting... the attention is there, I don't have to waste effort trying to get it."

Ye Chuxiao expertly operated the magic mirror in his hand.

A light shone out from the mirror's surface.

His image was projected into a virtual online platform.

Myriad runes flashed, and Ye Chuxiao saw a plethora of floating comments, and figures wearing all sorts of flashy 'skins'.

Like many live streaming platforms, where high spenders get titles and exclusive entry effects.

In this world's live streams, ordinary viewers who don't spend money can only send a floating comment once a minute, while rich users with 'status' can manifest their customized avatars and chat with the streamer remotely. As long as they spend enough, any avatar can be unlocked.

"Is that Young Master Wang? Young Master Wang! Kowtow to me, Grandpa."

"Are you going to perform eating spiritual food? The kind that comes out of your nostrils?"

"Young Master Wang, I'm your half-brother from another mother! When are we going to go back and see our dad?"

"Are you there? I'll transfer you fifty!"

A flood of floating comments rushed at him, and the popularity of the stream soared.

The scummy streaming platform immediately gave Ye Chuxiao a featured spot and a site-wide notification.

They wanted to capitalize on this heat and turn the traffic Ye Chuxiao brought into their own user base.

With a wave of his sleeve, Ye Chuxiao filtered out all the ordinary comments, and the scene in front of him became much clearer and smoother.

What remained were 'tycoons' with specific avatars.

They were much more polite to Ye Chuxiao, greeting him amiably.

Even if there was teasing, it was more subtle.

"Young Master Wang! Which female streamer's tag are you going to flip today?"

"I heard there's a Blackwind Cave Succubus who's been very popular lately, her waist wiggles so much, it'll steal your soul. Should we drive over there and have some fun?" A user who also belonged to the rich second generation, currently wearing a green frog avatar, hopped around as he spoke.

"Her waist is very thin? How... cough! Never mind today?"

"I, Wang Shirui, am a man of my word. I said I'd make the whole internet call me Daddy, and I'll deliver," Ye Chuxiao said.

Instantly, the comments Ye Chuxiao couldn't see erupted again.

The 'tycoons' with avatars also tried to persuade Ye Chuxiao to 'calm down', but their persuasion was inevitably mixed with the schadenfreude of spectators, ostensibly advising him, but actually wanting to see the chaos.

Without wasting any words, Ye Chuxiao 'slapped' up a cultivation method post.

Directly pinning it to the top of the stream.

"Virtual Spiritual Root Meditation Method... Part One!"

"With this, you don't need any spiritual roots. If you want to enter the Energy Realm, you can meditate on your own spiritual root, saving you a lot of money," Ye Chuxiao said, hands on his hips.

At first, the comments were full of doubt, with most people expressing disbelief, thinking Ye Chuxiao was bragging.

But a moment later, someone with knowledge of the subject immediately identified it as genuine.

Then the comments were filled with words like 'WTF' and 'Awesome'.

Even the rich users were stunned by Ye Chuxiao's move.

"This... Young Master Wang! You have too much capital! Young Master Xu! Young Master Li! They must hate you to death," the green frog said.

Immediately, a chicken-headed person, stepping on colorful dazzling lights, appeared and said: "The thing is real, but its effect is limited. Cultivation experts have already verified it. This thing takes a lot of time to practice. An ordinary cultivator might not be able to condense a low-grade spiritual root even after ten years. A common low-grade spiritual root on the market can be bought with a loan, and the loan should be paid off in less than ten years, so it's not worth it at all."

Ye Chuxiao smiled and said, "You're right, but... this is only Part One."

As soon as he said that, many people in the invisible comments shouted 'Daddy'.

Of course, there were also many cringy chuunibyou (middle-schooler's disease) comments, and such comments gradually increased.

The rewards in Ye Chuxiao's streaming channel also began to increase.

Many cultivators painfully cut their flesh, opened the paid mode, just so that Ye Chuxiao could hear and see them.

"Even if it's the full version, it's impossible to achieve too good of an effect. The advantage of spiritual roots is that each one is unique. To artificially simulate them, the effort and time consumed are foreseeable." The chicken-headed man still stubbornly argued.

Ye Chuxiao still didn't waste words, 'slapping' up the Spiritual Grafting Method.

At the same time, he also included a portion of the Nine Deaths Demonic Art's guiding Qi into the Void incantation.

With this incantation, even cultivators who can't guide spiritual roots into their bodies can use the power of the meditated spiritual roots to draw more energy from the heavens and earth to aid their cultivation.

"One person alone won't do, but a group of people will. Come on! Keep arguing, I still have Part Two." Ye Chuxiao didn't hold back at all.

The prisoner who 'taught' Ye Chuxiao the spiritual root meditation method said that spiritual root meditation needs to be kept 'secret', because individual needs are different. If it can't be kept secret, it's easy to form contamination, leading to the spiritual root's construction deviating from the original setting.

For this reason, he even slaughtered the people who helped him meditate on spiritual roots.

Ye Chuxiao felt that he was just short-sighted!

Once the horizons are broadened, some shortcomings may not be shortcomings.

Why resist contamination?

Or rather, a spiritual root construction direction that doesn't meet the original expectations is not necessarily contamination.

If there are enough people cultivating together, then the so-called contamination is not contamination at all, but rather makes the spiritual root more abundant, colorful, and full of possibilities.

Last time in Tianluo, Ye Chuxiao held a crowdfunding for cultivation.

This time, he came to this world full of chuunibyou (middle-schooler's disease), and what he wants to do is 'shared spiritual roots'.
