Possessed No More: The True Star Returns to Claim Her Throne Chapter 96: Qinggong?
Then, her eyes lit up. "Oho~"
"What is it, Ria?"
"I just heard a chicken clucking."
"How co I didn’t hear anything? No one lives on this mountain, so how could there be chickens?"
[That Z-lister is trying to stir up drama again. The mics didn’t pick up any sound, so how could she hear a chicken? And even if there was one, could she even catch it?]
[Do it. Get yourself arrested. Wild chickens are protected animals. If she catches one, she’s going straight to jail.]
Riley Perry licked her lips and said confidently, "My hearing is just better. As for why there’s a chicken on the mountain? That’s simple. The production team must have put it here beforehand. The clucking I heard just now sounded like a dostic chicken.
Watch my bag for . I’m going to go check it out."
With that, she dropped her backpack at Victoria Koenig’s feet and ran toward the dense woods. Two drones imdiately followed her.
Just then, a caption appeared on the screen: The production team has not only placed item exchange cards around the mountain but has also released a number of live animals. This ensures that even if the guests can’t find any cards, they won’t starve for lack of food. Of course, whether they can actually get anything to eat depends on their own skills.
Victoria Koenig could only worry helplessly, staying put to guard Riley Perry’s backpack.
In the woods, Riley Perry found a card in the grass as soon as she entered. After that, it was as if a lucky switch had been flipped; she uncovered one card after another. After walking for about a quarter of an hour, she discovered a card hidden on a bamboo stalk.
[This won’t be a problem for Riley Perry. She knows how to climb trees.]
[To the person above, that’s a bamboo stalk, at most as thick as a woman’s calf. How is she supposed to climb that? What if it snaps?
The point is, the card is tied to it. You can’t even shake it loose. How is she going to climb that?]
Just as the audience was buzzing with discussion, Riley Perry suddenly started running. Then, her body shot upward. Just as she reached the peak of her jump and was about to descend, she grabbed the bamboo stalk, using the montum to propel herself higher. After repeating this motion twice more, her hand reached the card tied to the bamboo. With a sharp tug, she yanked the card free and then landed steadily on the ground.
Leo couldn’t help but complain, "Master, why make things so complicated? With your abilities, you could have collected all these cards with a re flick of your finger."
Riley Perry: "This is already flashy enough. If I did it your way, the audience in the livestream would think they were seeing a ghost."
Leo: "...Having to hide your true strength must be so hard on you, Master."
Riley Perry: ’Not really.’
[Oh my god, please tell that wasn’t real!]
[I think I just saw a goddess! Even though she’s wearing a black tracksuit, that scene just now was so beautiful!]
[Was that Qinggong? It has to be, right? Right?!]
[My mom asked why I’m kneeling to watch a livestream. How could I not fucking kneel for this?!]
Riley Perry waved the cards in her hand at the cara. "I found seven cards in total, but they’re only good for two packs of instant noodles, two two-liter bottles of water, one lunchbox, a pack of salt, and a pack of cookies. Feels like it’s not enough, so I’ll keep looking."
[How can she be so beautiful and amazing, and have such a nice voice on top of that?
It’s so clear and pleasant, with this lingering, captivating quality. I’m completely srized!]
[Her voice makes want to sleep. As a chronic insomniac, I’m begging you, miss, please talk more.] The user imdiately followed up with a 2,000-yuan tip.
Then, surprisingly, many others started tipping as well, all with the sa ssage attached: If you can talk, please talk more.
In the span of just a few sentences, the tips in the livestream had already surpassed 100,000 yuan!
This left the other viewers completely baffled. If you’re all insomniacs, why aren’t you getting so sleep instead of watching a survival livestream?
[Pfft~ This livestream is wild. People are actually coming here to sleep.]
When Director Warren saw these comnts, he sucked his teeth. He turned to his assistant director. "This is a survival show, right?"
The assistant director: "Yes."
Director Warren: "For a second there, I thought I’d tuned into the wrong stream! But Riley Perry’s voice really is incredible. Tell , how much of a bonus would I have to offer to get her to talk more?"
Assistant Director: "Well... why don’t you ask her?"
And Director Warren actually did. At that mont, Riley Perry had just spotted a big, fat hen that weighed at least five or six pounds. The chicken was quite alert and started to run the mont it heard a sound, but Riley flicked a stone, hitting the hen square on the head. It was knocked out cold on the spot.
[Oho, this one... this one’s got real kung fu, it’s confird! First Qinggong, now hidden weapons? What’s she going to show us next?]
[This woman has been in the industry for over three years, and this is the first ti she’s shown her true self on cara. She’s really good at holding back!]
[Assistant Lee, I want a full dossier on this woman within three minutes! Where the hell did she learn all these skills?]
Hearing her watch beep, Riley Perry tied up the chicken and then answered the call. "Sorry, what was that?"
"Just talk a bit more when you have a chance. So viewers want to listen to your voice to fall asleep. Price is negotiable!"
"Director Warren, does this an I can rip you off for once? I’ll have you know, I’m a huge money-lover. I won’t do it if the price isn’t right!"
Director Warren gritted his teeth. "Fine. What do you want?"
Riley Perry didn’t hold back and started listing her demands: "Alright, I’m going to ask for the moon, then. I want eleven pounds of rice, a porridge pot, beef, shrimp, fish, pork, a pound of assorted green vegetables for every al until the show ends, and one of every kind of spice..."
"Stop, stop, stop! Are you dreaming? If I really gave you all that, we might as well not even film the show! This isn’t a survival challenge for you; it’s a vacation!"
’This cheeky girl. And she said she loves money? This is what she asks for?’
’It was worth it, insisting on inviting her to this show despite Stellux’s ban.’
"Don’t be so hasty, Director. We can negotiate. You can haggle when you’re buying anything..."
"Don’t even think about it! If I actually agreed to that, it would be unfair to the other guests! Forget it. Just talk more for now, and we’ll discuss the rest after the show is done filming." With that, the call ended!
Riley Perry shrugged and said with a sigh, "And here I thought I could get a little sothing out of the director. I had it all planned out, a big feast with Victoria Koenig later.
But in the end, Director Warren, you’re a real cheapskate!"
The screen filled with "Hahaha." [Riley Perry, you’re already so amazing. If Director Warren gave you a cheat code on top of that, the other guests wouldn’t stand a chance.]
Director Warren, having hung up the phone, was also laughing and cursing good-naturedly. "This kid’s acting is so-so, but she’s surprisingly uninhibited on a reality show. Quick, clip that scene of her flying up just now and release it. Let’s drum up so hype for her."
By this point, Riley Perry was already heading back. As luck would have it, because she took a different path, she managed to find two more exchange cards and two mission cards.
When she returned to their starting point, she saw a small pile of dry firewood and bamboo in front of Victoria Koenig. Her backpack was sitting on a large rock.
When Victoria Koenig saw Riley Perry, she imdiately ran over, her eyes glued to the chicken in Riley’s hands. "Ria, you really caught a chicken!"
