4: Chapter 004 Watching Live Streams

"There are still two rooms left, but there are no single rooms, only suites."

Hearing that Ye Mo still intended to rent from her, Lu Baijun felt a sudden surge of joy.

"It doesn't matter. However, I lost my phone, so I need to go buy one later before I can transfer the money to you," Ye Mo said.

Lu Baijun didn't mind at all, thinking that as long as he continued to update, it didn't matter whether she got the rent or not.

Lu Baijun brought Ye Mo to Room 101, where Ye Mo quickly found his wallet; inside, besides his ID card, there were a few bank cards and some coins.

Then, Lu Baijun gave Ye Mo the key to the suite, Room 306 on the 3rd floor.

It was right across from the room he had rented previously.

The layout of Tianhe Apartment had single rooms on one side and suites on the other.

The suite also came with a balcony and had good lighting.

Lu Baijun also had a room here, 102 on the first floor, but she rarely stayed here and usually lived at home.

She only came by when it was time to collect rent.

Ye Mo quickly moved his luggage to Room 306.

Then he changed his clothes.

Taking advantage of the early hour, he went downstairs and headed to the nearby commercial street, planning to sell the gold and buy a new phone and SIM card.

He placed the twenty-plus jin of gold into his backpack beforehand and soon arrived at a gold recycling shop.

To Ye Mo's surprise, the price of gold had recently risen, reaching as high as 450 per gram, which pleasantly surprised him.

Ye Mo visited several shops and sold all twenty-plus jin of gold, earning a total of over 5 million.

Afterward, he went to buy a phone, downloaded WeChat and Alipay, and got everything set up.

Just as Ye Mo was thinking about getting a haircut, he suddenly noticed a couple walk in.

It was the same couple that had previously mistaken Ye Mo for a thief.

The man's name was something like Aiming; Ye Mo didn't know the woman's name, but after changing out of her factory uniform, she was actually quite pretty.

Especially her figure, which was absolutely S-curved.

Because her previous factory uniform was quite loose, Ye Mo hadn't noticed it at all.

"The designer of the factory uniform is completely anti-human," Ye Mo thought to himself, then activated Character Inspection.

Character: Yang Lan. Cultivation: None. Spiritual Root: Blue Spirit Root.

"Damn, another Blue Spirit Root. Is this just good luck, or does Blue Star actually have many people with Spiritual Roots?"

"By logic, the Spiritual Qi on Blue Star is nearly withered, so people with Spiritual Roots should be very rare."

Ye Mo couldn't quite figure it out, eventually deciding that he might just possess a bit of a 'lucky charm' Physique.

However, even if these two weren't married, they were definitely a couple.

Ye Mo didn't have a penchant for stealing other men's wives.

He retracted his gaze and found a barbershop called 'Exquisite Styling'.

There were quite a few customers in the shop, so Ye Mo waited half an hour before it was his turn; during this time, he activated Character Inspection on everyone in the shop.

In the end, he discovered that not a single person had a Spiritual Root.

"It seems it was just pure luck."

After getting his haircut (a new hairstyle, similar to Hua Yingxiong), Ye Mo returned to the apartment.

It was almost nine o'clock in the evening. Ye Mo took a quick shower, then lay on the bed and started browsing Douyin.

Why browse Douyin? Because the System could determine if someone had a Spiritual Root through video footage; browsing streamers on Douyin was naturally the fastest way to find women with Spiritual Roots.

Moreover, as long as he tipped these female streamers, it was the easiest way to make contact.

If he encountered streamers who loved money, it would be as easy as pie.

This was the reason for Ye Mo's confidence.

Of course, given Ye Mo's current financial means, some big streamers would definitely look down on him, so he could only look for small streamers with low popularity.

However, after three hours, Ye Mo had scrolled through at least three hundred female streamers, but only three had Spiritual Roots: two with White Spirit Roots and one with a Green Spirit Root.

If he were in the Water Moon Realm, Ye Mo wouldn't mind White Spirit Roots.

But now that he was back on Blue Star, he naturally wanted to pick ones with better Spiritual Roots.

He had originally hoped for at least a Blue Spirit Root.

But it seemed he had been taking things for granted.

"I'll browse for another half hour; if I can't find a good Spiritual Root, I'll just have to settle for less."

Ye Mo thought that as long as there were enough White Spirit Roots, with his 'One-Hit Success' skill, he could still accumulate resources quickly in the early stages.

12:45 AM. Yong City, Heshu District, Qianda Apartment. Zhou Ruolin looked at the few hundred 'sound waves' on her phone and her desolate livestream room; the look of disappointment on her face could no longer be hidden.

She had been streaming for a month. Because she lacked talent and wasn't very glib, she had only gained a few fans by relying on her rather stunning face.

But that was about it.

"It seems I'm really not cut out for this path. I should probably just go find a job tomorrow..." Zhou Ruolin had already started thinking about giving up.

Just then, an ID named 'Otherworld Little Miner' entered the livestream room.

Zhou Ruolin didn't pay much attention at first; many people came and went in the livestream, and seeing that the user was just a Level 2 account, she didn't think anything of it.

However, a minute later, her eyes widened in shock.

She subconsciously rubbed her eyes, as if to confirm whether she was seeing things correctly.

She saw the special effect of a 'Carnival' gift flooding the entire livestream room.

[Otherworld Little Miner gifted Streamer Linlin Carnival * 1] [Otherworld Little Miner gifted Streamer Linlin Carnival * 2] ... [Otherworld Little Miner gifted Streamer Linlin Carnival * 10]

Ten consecutive Carnivals made Zhou Ruolin feel as if she were in a dream.

She had been streaming for a month and didn't even know what a Carnival looked like; she never expected to receive ten without any warning.

"Family, was I seeing things just now? Did someone really gift me ten Carnivals?"

Ten Carnivals meant 30,000, and after the split, she would get 15,000.

15,000 in one night—she had never imagined such a thing before.

"Little Linlin, are you still dazed? Hurry up and thank President Yi!"

"Little Linlin is scared silly. She probably never expected this massive windfall to land on her head."

"Just arrived, what happened?"

The livestream room, which originally only had a few dozen people, suddenly became lively.

At this moment, Zhou Ruolin finally snapped back to reality.

"Thank you, Big Shot! Thank you, President Yi!" Zhou Ruolin shouted loudly, which was rare for her.

However, she didn't receive any response.

Because 'Otherworld Little Miner' had exited the livestream room right after gifting the ten Carnivals.

"Little Linlin, hurry and add him on WeChat. You absolutely cannot miss a wealthy patron like this. You must cling to his thigh!"

"Right, right, I'm adding him now..."

Yinzhou District, Shigang Community. Yu Mengyao, who was just about to end her stream and say goodnight to her 'family', suddenly...

Hedong District, Dongxing Community. Jiang Yi looked at the sudden special effects and hadn't reacted yet. When the chat was flooded with surprised emojis, Yang Lan immediately shouted loudly: "President Yi, don't go!"

1:00 AM. Because he couldn't find any better Spiritual Roots, Ye Mo had to give up and proceeded to tip four streamers: two with White Spirit Roots and two with Green Spirit Roots.

Women with Spiritual Roots were simply too rare.

Of course, this was also because the streamers Ye Mo browsed were all in local livestream rooms.

The main reason was to make meeting up convenient.

These four streamers all added Ye Mo on WeChat, but Ye Mo only sent a simple greeting and hadn't started chatting formally yet.

Putting his phone aside, Ye Mo prepared to Cultivate. However, because there was basically no Spiritual Qi on Blue Star, he could only use Spirit Stones for cultivation.

"It seems I'll have to mine like crazy when I get back," Ye Mo muttered, then cast aside all distractions.

The Eternal Evergreen Cultivation Technique, although it could allow one to Cultivate to the Saint Venerable Realm and sounded intimidating, actually had nothing special about it.

It also provided no bonus to one's own Spiritual Qi.

Furthermore, Ye Mo couldn't switch to other Cultivation Techniques. Once he practiced another technique, the rewarded cultivation wouldn't have any amplification, so Ye Mo had no choice but to Cultivate this one to the end.

He cultivated until six in the morning. When sleepiness finally hit, Ye Mo decided to get some sleep.

After waking up, he would try to see if he could arrange to meet the streamers for a detailed discussion.

However, Ye Mo had only slept for two hours when a hurried knocking sound came from outside the door.

Ye Mo activated his Divine Sense and discovered the beautiful landlady, dressed in a white dress, standing outside the door with her hands behind her back.

Ye Mo was speechless. This woman used to come over from time to time to urge him to update when he was serializing his novel. Ye Mo had originally intended to write four thousand words a day, but she had forced him to increase it to eight thousand.

"Listen, big sister, didn't I make it very clear yesterday that I won't be updating anymore?" Ye Mo opened the door and said lethargically.
