[Mad Beauty Scientist × Yandere Capitalist Queen × Mysterious Gatekeeper]
A matchmaking livestream ridiculed by the entire internet brings the lost paradise of Shangri-La back into the world after a century's absence.
Botanist Su Tang recognizes a starflower that's been extinct for a century, only to be warned by the mysterious guest Jiang Linchuan: "Shangri-La must not be gazed upon."
Capitalist queen Wang Wei approaches him for a hundred-billion-yuan windfall, but when she touches a snow lotus specimen, a strange sigil is branded onto her.
As global financial magnates throw money at the problem to buy their lives, and academic authorities are reduced to pawns, Jiang Linchuan lays out the rules onstage:
"Want to enter Shangri-La? Pay a ten-million entry fee first, then we'll see if you're qualified!"
**They call him a fraud, until...**
A wealthy expedition team is crystallized into ice statues by spores, and the editor-in-chief of a top journal livestreams himself bleeding from all seven orifices.
Su Tang's snow lotus mark can bring the dead back to life, while Wang Wei's nose for money stirs up trillions in capital.
[Global Livestream] [Rules-Based Horror] [A Hundred-Billion-Yuan Game of Wits]
When the iron hooves of capital clash with the laws of antiquity, in this game where money buys life...
Who is passing judgment? Who will be sacrificed? And who will make it out of Shangri-La alive?
(Dual heroines locked in a battle of wits + the male lead pulling the strings, high-IQ scheming + supernatural face-slapping)
