Master, Your Wife Has Become a Super Star Through Fortune-Telling-Chapter 109 - 110: Clout Chasing

The screen crackled with static and slowly faded to black. No one knew that Sister He, who had just been so self-righteously proclaiming her preference for sons over daughters, was now clutching her child in misery and despair.

But that... thing... was slowly groping its way toward her. And the portly man, who had been complaining about his back pain, was now lifeless.

Su Nian, of course, knew what was happening. This was all karma. As for the little boy, the couple had spent a fortune on prenatal check-ups, only to find out the baby was actually a girl.

They then spent another fortune to hire a sorcerer, who used sinister, wicked methods to turn the girl into a boy.

Because of this, the little boy’s health was extremely poor. He should have passed away by the age of three. But the couple was wealthy. They found numerous masters and used many dark, unorthodox arts to keep the boy alive.

However, her affinity with children was truly shallow. The little boy was never meant to live in this world, and this time, he would be taken away by his sister.

"Alright, I doubt we’ll see the aftermath of this incident. But to all my friends in the stream, I hope you take my reminder to heart: what goes around, comes around."

"Don’t think you can get away with things. Often, fate has its own plans in the unseen world. You might think you’ve dodged a bullet, but your comeuppance could very well be on its way."

Su Nian was about to end the stream when suddenly, a profile picture began to flash frantically. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

Su Nian glanced at the name: Divine Strategist Master Liu! He was a peer, so to speak.

But this peer wasn’t very friendly. He was spamming the comments section.

[Do you dare accept my challenge?]

He spammed the same message several times. Su Nian didn’t want to deal with it; all she wanted was to go to sleep. But the bastard had brought his fans along.

Even Su Nian’s own fans couldn’t stand it anymore and started a flame war with them.

Su Nian watched the argument unfold. The other guy’s fans were calling her a fraud, saying everything was fake and that she hired actors.

Su Nian was left speechless by these brain-dead comments.

She accepted the so-called challenge from this streamer.

The moment she sent the video call invitation, the other party accepted. It was as if he’d been clutching his phone, just waiting for her to invite him.

Once connected, the screen immediately split in two. On the left half, a middle-aged man appeared.

The man was dressed in a long, gray linen robe and had a short beard. If he were holding a horsetail whisk, he would have truly looked the part of a celestial master.

However, the shrewd glint in his eyes ruined his enlightened, sage-like appearance.

When Su Nian’s fans saw that she had accepted, the stream chat immediately exploded with activity.

[Whoa, someone’s here to crash the party, huh?]

[The host is so popular right now. I only found out about this kind of stream because of her. It’s actually normal for people to show up trying to leech off her fame!]

[I wonder who’s better at fortune-telling, him or our host?]

[Don’t you dare question the host’s skills, person above me. She can beat up a ghost with her bare hands. I bet this ’master’ can’t do that.]

[Wait, his ID looks familiar. I think I’ve seen it somewhere.]

[I know him! He’s that famous master from Weibo! He’s the one who predicted the downfall of a bunch of celebrities before. And it all came true!]

[Yeah, yeah! And he also said a Ziwei Star would appear this year. Supposedly a huge superstar! But there hasn’t been any news about it yet.]

[So he’s here to leech off her fame then?]

[Probably not, right? He has a lot of fans himself.]

Divine Strategist Master Liu saw these comments but merely sneered. He carried himself with a lofty, superior air.

The audience wasn’t wrong; he did have a few tricks up his sleeve. But in reality, his predictions were all based on superficial things. It was just that others didn’t dare to say them, while he had spoken up early.

He had ridden the coattails of those celebrities’ fame and gained a huge wave of followers from that Ziwei Star prediction.

He now had over a million followers, and he already thought he was hot shit.

That is, until he suddenly discovered the name of another master popping up on various platforms.

At first, he assumed it was definitely just a marketing ploy.

Deciding to check out the competition, he took a closer look and found that she was a stunning beauty with a celestial air.

Not only that, she could beat up ghosts with her bare hands. The state of that ghost had been truly pathetic.

He knew perfectly well he was nowhere near that powerful.

However, he was extremely confident when it came to fortune-telling.

He had come to challenge her today for two reasons. First, to ride her coattails and gain some followers. Second, to use his status as a senior to admonish Su Nian.

’This kind of marketing is no good. Young people need to take things one step at a time.’

He was here both to leech off her fame and to teach her a lesson.

He thought self-righteously, never once considering the possibility that he would be the one getting his face slapped.

Master Liu cleared his throat, stroked his beard, and put on the air of a worldly transcendent as he spoke, "Young friend, I’ve come to your stream to test your skills and see what you’re made of."

Su Nian’s expression didn’t change upon hearing this. She even rolled her eyes.

Master Liu pretended not to see and, with a show of generosity, sent Su Nian two Carnivals.

"Young friend, this is to compensate you."

In truth, while Master Liu acted generously, he was inwardly wincing at the cost. Few people believed in fortune-telling these days anyway.

On top of that, Master Liu would occasionally make small mistakes. Although he had fans, aside from a few die-hards, most of them were zombie followers. With such low activity, the money he earned from his fortune-telling streams was dwindling.

Su Nian glanced up, her tone languid. "What do you want a reading on?"

Master Liu had been waiting for her to say this. He stood up, pulled out a photograph, and assumed a calm and composed demeanor. "My information is easy to find. A quick search online will tell you my name, where I live, and how many people are in my family. But we won’t be divining that today!"

But Su Nian clearly couldn’t be bothered. She didn’t even bother listening to his rules. After receiving the divination fee, she simply pinched her fingers together and began to calculate.

When she saw the result clearly, her eyes snapped open, and she stared at the sage-like Master Liu before her.

’This Master Liu is seriously out of luck.’

Su Nian suppressed her gloating expression. Her tone was still languid, but her words landed with resounding force. "You should stop trying to compete with me. You’re about to face a prison sentence!"

Master Liu: ???

He knew Su Nian had some skill, but to spout such nonsense was just wrong of her.

He was furious. He was now convinced that Su Nian was just trying to trick him or create a sensational moment to boost her own popularity!

"You... young friend, how can you spout such nonsense!"

Su Nian rolled her eyes elegantly and slowly shook her head. "I know you’re a decent person, for the most part. You even donated a large sum of money to a disaster area. But have you stopped to think about what you’ve done?"

Hearing this, Master Liu frowned involuntarily. He ran through his memories. ’I’ve always walked the straight and narrow. There’s no way I could be in trouble!’

He relaxed again, dead set on the idea that Su Nian was just deliberately creating a hot topic to market herself.

"You girl! You have no real skill, just a mouth full of lies!"
