At the live recording of the metaphysical variety show Psychic Showdown, Su Yao's heart monitor flatlines.
The internet explodes: #SuYaoHasNoHeartbeat shoots to the top of the trending charts!
Top-tier star Xie Yanci tears open his shirt in front of everyone, grabs her wrist, and presses it to his chest. "Feel it for yourself. Your heartbeat is beating right here."
Beneath the scorching curse mark on his chest lies the heart ripped from her three years ago.
The production team has no idea that this variety show has already been invaded by a livestream from the underworld.
The guests' tasks are to "extend the viewers' lives":
"Exorcise a vengeful spirit for one hour"
"Kill a zombie for two hours"
As a blood moon hangs over the filming location, Su Yao tears open her corpse-transformed chest and takes out a Buddha bone. "Judge of the Underworld, you used a million viewers to cultivate the 'Heart of Ten Thousand Filths'..."
"Did you ask this living corpse vessel for permission?"
Xie Yanci devours a hundred thousand evil spirits and awakens the form of the Yin Celestial Emperor. His crimson eyes lock onto her as she hovers between life and death.
"Su Yao, who gave you permission to stop my heart?"
