An expert in the occult transmigrated into a book.
In the original story, Sang Yu was the fake young master. He charged into the entertainment industry and accumulated countless haters. Then the real young master was found, and his adoptive parents could no longer tolerate his lack of ambition. They bundled Sang Yu off to a rural reality show for a makeover.
Sang Yu had just gotten out of the car.
A dad in prison, a mom who loved gambling, a sister with a punk hairstyle, and him, broken and alone...
Sang Yu: “What kind of hellish start is this?”
The family was so desperately poor that even the last mouse in the kitchen had starved to death.
For the sake of that broken version of himself, Sang Yu decided to return to his old line of work and livestream fortune-telling.
Before he went live: Someone reported him for promoting feudal superstition.
Once the stream started:
[Master, my wife is pregnant. Can you help us pick a name??]
Sang Yu: [First, make sure your wife is a woman. He doesn’t seem to have the right organs.]
The next day’s news: Man disguises himself as a woman, has sex with a man, and pretends to be pregnant.
[Master, when do you think my favorite idol will hold a concert?]
Sang Yu: [Your idol is secretly sleeping around and evading taxes, and you’re not his only sister-in-law.]
The next day’s news: Celebrity exposed for secretly sleeping around and evading taxes, banned from the industry.
After finishing his fortune-telling livestream during the day, he livestreamed ghost-hunting in the melon fields at night.
It was the fifteenth day of the seventh lunar month, when the gates of the underworld swung wide open. Ghost soldiers marched through, and the Red and White Fiends came face to face, fighting and refusing to yield.
Sang Yu clutched a watermelon and screamed furiously, “Who the hell stepped on my melons?!”
While the entire production crew screamed and fled in terror, Sang Yu wielded lightning-struck wood and set yellow talismans ablaze, putting on a show of exorcising ghosts in the melon field.
The audience were NPCs who had never seen anything like it.
After the rural reality show ended,
Sang Yu became a huge star in the occult world.
Powerful figures from business and politics threw money around, each hoping to get a fortune told by Sang Yu.
His adoptive parents saw how seriously Sang Yu had changed and decided to bring him back home, so the true and fake young masters could get along and become a pair of brothers unrelated by blood or adoption.
Everyone outside speculated that the true and fake young masters would battle over the family fortune.
Sang Yu looked at the top donor sending him money without even raising his head. “Thanks for the tip, top donor.”
The real young master, Jing Zhan, hugged him around the waist from behind, then knelt on one knee in full view of everyone and offered him his premarital assets. “Wifey... all my assets are yours.”
Sang Yu: “???”
