In the YouTube live stream, comments were scrolling rapidly, and the title read "Kiss Challenge."
【56/100】
"Hahaha, Saul has set his sights on new targets again, but these three seem pretty cute."
"Fifty-six successes in just a few days? That’s way too easy!"
"Unbelievable. I heard it’s even easier in China? Last time, some YouTuber hit a hundred in just two days in Shanghai."
"Somehow, they seem to worship us. Last time, one even said the air here tastes sweet—so weird."
"I can’t take it anymore. I’m booking a flight right now. I’m gonna have some fun."
The screen showed the curly-haired guy and his crew approaching Bai Yuyou and her friends. The stream had a sizable audience, with some even sending gifts.
Tang Keke eyed the grinning curly-haired guy. Though he was tall and handsome, asking for a kiss after just a few words was strange, even for a "challenge."
"Is this how all foreigners act?" Tang Keke asked An Shiyu, recalling rumors about friends greeting each other with kisses.
"Who knows?" An Shiyu sounded annoyed as she glared at the guys blocking their path. "Move."
"Uh…"
The group hesitated under An Shiyu’s cold dismissal, exchanging glances before shifting their focus to Tang Keke and Bai Yuyou.
"You’re the most beautiful girls we’ve ever met. If we fail this challenge, our viewers will punish us. Please?" The curly-haired guy clasped his hands pleadingly.
"Huh?" Tang Keke scratched her head, still uncomfortable. "No way, that’s too weird. Sorry, find someone else."
The curly-haired guy sighed, turning to Bai Yuyou.
"Pretty girl, we’d be heartbroken. Could you help us out? Just ten seconds?"
Bai Yuyou thought for a moment before replying,
"Kissing is for people you like."
"Oh, no problem!" The guy winked. "I like you a lot. Let’s keep it our little secret, okay?"
Bai Yuyou tilted her head.
"But I don’t like you."
His smile froze.
"Let’s go." An Shiyu shoved past the cameraman, leading the girls away.
The trio checked their stream’s chat:
"Failed this time. Guess some are harder to crack."
"Saul, if you land that kiss, I’ll send you a thousand bucks!"
"That girl with the big backpack seemed easier. You losing your touch, Saul?"
"Go for it! Fail again, and I’m unsubbing!"
Seeing the surge in viewers and gift promises, the curly-haired guy grinned. "Don’t worry, folks. Saul never backs down. Watch and learn!"
With that, they chased after the girls.
"Tch. These mutts won’t quit." An Shiyu sensed them following, cracking her knuckles.
If not for the crowd, she’d have already kicked them where it hurt.
"Fine. Time to become a nutcracker expert." She stretched, bouncing on her toes.
"W-wait! No fighting!" Tang Keke panicked, remembering how An Shiyu had dealt with the stalker. If she attacked now, the police would get involved.
Meanwhile, Bai Yuyou quietly tapped on her phone.
"Ladies, our bad earlier. How about a game instead?" The curly-haired guy switched tactics. Most girls folded after a little sweet talk—these just needed more convincing.
He flashed a princely smile.
"Annoying. You’re live-streaming this?" An Shiyu asked.
"Uh, yeah?"
"Ever considered a ‘Kiss Animals Challenge’? Like macaques or gorillas? Bet that’d get more views."
"…"
"Since you’re brainless macaques anyway, why not kiss your own kind?"
"Think it over and scram."
An Shiyu’s jab wiped the smirk off Saul’s face. Even foreign audiences, once her words were translated, erupted in laughter.
"Beautiful, aren’t we international friends?" Saul pressed.
An Shiyu crossed her arms. "You’re not even human."
Furious, Saul grabbed for her wrist—but she dodged effortlessly.
Thud. Her fist buried itself in his gut.
"Fck! Grab her! I’ll rip her mouth off!" Saul wheezed, doubling over. His friends lunged at An Shiyu.
The stream cut out as the girls were surrounded.
"Eek?!" Tang Keke shrank back, then steeled herself to shield Bai Yuyou, clutching her arm.
An Shiyu remained unfazed. These creeps had it coming.
"An Shiyu, wh-what now? Are we gonna die?!" Tang Keke fretted.
"Won’t die. Just cripple them. Though death would be messy."
"THAT’S NOT WHAT I MEANT! And why are you thinking like that?!"
Suddenly, a voice cut through. "Hey! What’s going on?!"
An Shiyu glanced over as Ye Shuang and Chen Qin approached with a few others. They’d been nearby when Bai Yuyou texted for help.
"…" Saul’s group tensed.
Why so many people?
"Bullying my girls? Get them!" Chen Qin ordered. Her bodyguards surged forward.
for mindless slaughter, this isn't for you.] My name is Ye Shu, and I'm a transmigrator. It seems I'm supposed to be the protagonist, but that feels pretty unlikely. This world has been invaded by a system. The antagonists on the other side have suddenly become pure, flawless saints. The female leads have been force-fed the so-called "original plot," making them think they've been reborn. Now, everyone thinks I'm scum. Including the old lady in my ring. And here I am, in the Monster Beast Mountain Range, braising pork. To put my situation in perspective— It's as if, the moment Xiao Yan stepped into the Monster Beast Mountain Range, the Soul Emperor already knew he would become the Flame Emperor, and Yao Lao had been turned to the enemy's side. I have nothing right now. Oh wait, that's not true. I do have a white-haired loli child-bride who's the Heavenly Dao, and her only skill is acting cute. So, tell me guys... what are my chances of making it to the end?

"Wuwu~ Big Brother is so good to me! I’ll become a scientist to repay you!" When the genius girl got bullied by a shady professor? Su Bai casually dropped a billion-dollar investment, forcing the university to grovel and beg for her return. A company’s funding chain collapsing?

end. Thus one must continue to cultivate, and become a saint or great emperor, in order to prolong one's life. Chen Xia, however, completely reversed this. Since his transmigration, he has gained immortality, and also a system that awards him with attribute points for every year he lives. Thus between the myriad worlds, the legend of an unparalleled senior appeared. "A gentleman takes revenge; it is never too late even after ten thousand years." "When you were at your peak I yielded, now in your old age I shall trample on you." - Chen Xia
to panic—he has a system. As long as an investment target dies, he can claim a reward. And since he is immortal, the one thing he has plenty of is time. ... Countless years later. “Immortal Emperor of Longevity? I invested in him.” “Supreme Celestial Venerable? I invested in him.” “Undying Empress? I invested in her.” “...” “Heh. Once they’ve all died, even the Heavenly Dao will have to kneel and call me Dad.”
