The Taoist was packing up his things, and Su Qiluo turned her gaze to Chen Shang, who shrugged his shoulders, implying that she had caused the trouble and should resolve it herself.
At this moment, the Taoist finished packing, raised his phone, and while live-streaming, said, "Little girl, let's go!"
Su Qiluo nodded, then walked a few steps to Chen Shang's side, taking his hand and blinking her eyes innocently.
"Chen Shang Gege, let's go home!"
She was acting all sweet and obedient.
Chen Shang rolled his eyes; she had reverted to her innocent self again. However, he couldn't just push Su Qiluo away and pretend not to know her; after all, she was his precious blood pack.
Meanwhile, the Taoist, holding his phone, was bombarded with comments.
"Wow, the little brother is so handsome! I can!"
"Listen to me, this little brother is deep water; if you can't handle him, let me take over."
"Both siblings are super good-looking! I'm in love!"
"How do you know they are siblings? What if they are a couple?"
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
"Hey? They look like a perfect match; who do you think you are to object?"
"Host, quickly check if they are siblings and help me get some signals!"
The Taoist looked at the barrage on his phone, his smile stiffening. Why is everyone asking for the signals of passersby in my live stream? Isn't mine good enough?
He glanced back at Chen Shang and Su Qiluo.
Hmph, they are only seven or eight times better looking than me; it's not that big of a difference!
Thus, Chen Shang led the Taoist and Su Qiluo out of the commercial street.
"Taoist, which sect do you belong to? What's your name?"
As they walked, Chen Shang inquired about the Taoist's background.
"I am a disciple of the Zhengyi sect, surnamed Gu, with the Taoist name Xuánqīng. I've been practicing in the mountains for sixteen years, and now I've come down to experience the world and accumulate virtue," Gu Xuanqing replied earnestly, making Chen Shang feel that he might actually be telling the truth.
"So you've been up in the mountains for sixteen years, and you're only seventeen this year?"
Su Qiluo asked curiously, as Gu Xuanqing clearly looked older than seventeen.
"Huh? I began practicing with my master at six and am now twenty-three."
Upon hearing this, Su Qiluo awkwardly chuckled and quickly went silent.
"You just used the birthdate to tell the little girl's fortune without even asking her name. Is it just the birthdate that matters?"
Gu Xuanqing nodded.
"A name is merely a title. With the birthdate and appearance, one can deduce fortune. A name can also be derived from the birthdate and appearance."
"Oh?"
Chen Shang found this interesting.
"Then what is this girl's name?"
Gu Xuanqing glanced at Su Qiluo and began calculating again. After a moment, he lifted his head.
"The girl's surname is Su, and her life is like silk, more precious than gold. 'Peach and plum evening thoughts, silk brocade looks far away'—I take the word 'Qiluo' from this. Am I correct?"
As soon as he spoke, Su Qiluo stared at Gu Xuanqing in disbelief, while Chen Shang narrowed his eyes slightly.
"Based on her reaction, did the host actually get it right?"
"Upstairs, are you an idiot? If you can guess three words right out of the blue, let's see you do it!"
"The host just said he believes in science, yet the next second, he flew away on a sword."
"LOL, is this scientific?"
The barrage burst into laughter, mainly mocking Gu Xuanqing, who had previously insisted on believing in science, yet his own actions were hardly scientific.
Chen Shang threw a [Probe] at him, and received the following information:
Gu Xuanqing: Horror Stream Host
[Strength]: E-
[Agility]: E-
[Constitution]: E
[Mentality]: D
[Mystery]: C-
[Overall Assessment]: D-
Threat level: 2: Slightly ordinary. This target may pose a threat under specific circumstances, but with enough vigilance, they will generally not be able to inflict effective harm on you.
This made Chen Shang unconsciously break into a smile; he didn't expect to stumble upon a pleasant surprise on the street.
Gu Xuanqing felt a chill run down his neck and instinctively shivered. Turning to look at Chen Shang, who was smiling, he felt an uneasy sense of danger.
Yet, seeing the unarmed siblings in front of him, Gu Xuanqing thought he was overthinking it; this was the real world, after all. How could there be any danger?
The three of them left the commercial street and took a taxi to Chen Shang's villa.
"When you were setting up your stall earlier, I heard you say you could change fate?"
Su Qiluo asked with keen interest.
"Right, to change your luck, you need to sleep early and rise early; to change your wealth, find a job; to change your romantic luck, wash your face and put on makeup before going out more often."
Hearing this, Su Qiluo couldn't help but twitch her lips; his methods sounded so scientific, but the problem was, he was just an unscientific person.
"I heard that practicing Taoism allows you to fly on a sword; is that true?"
"That's all a lie. If you could fly on a sword, why would anyone invent airplanes? They'd all be flying around on swords!" Gu Xuanqing said with certainty.
Chen Shang rolled his eyes silently; this guy had a Mystery attribute of C-. Even if he couldn't fly on a sword, he could probably hover in the air to some extent. How could he tell people to believe in science?
Su Qiluo also looked at Gu Xuanqing with suspicion.
