The sound of the slap was crisp and loud.
Not only did it stun the live broadcast audience, but the staff and the guests present were also left dumbfounded.
Amber Livingston couldn’t help but widen her eyes,
"You, what are you doing?"
Suddenly, he slapped himself; could Director Clark have found a lunatic?
At this mont, Director Clark: ...
He also suspected he found a lunatic.
But after Cedric Wilder slapped himself, his expression twisted for a mont, then quickly returned to normal. He squinted at Amber Livingston, his voice still sharp, but inexplicably carried so respect,
"This kid has a foul mouth, please don’t mind him."
Saying this, he even bowed towards Amber Livingston.
Amber Livingston: ...
It’s not just Amber Livingston who was bewildered; the live broadcast audience was equally baffled.
anwhile, Magnolia Hearne and Scarlett Jennings, who were watching the live broadcast, seed to have an understanding.
"The Immortal Fox worshipped by Cedric Wilder is from the sa clan as the Immortal Fox grandma with Amber Livingston?"
Through the screen, Scarlett Jennings could only faintly see so similar white aura around the two.
Magnolia Hearne, who knew more about the Fox Tribe, nodded and said,
"Although the Fox Tribe doesn’t like living in groups, they do favor those from the sa branch. Others might not sense it, but Immortals can sense each other."
Just like how Nathan White noticed right away that there was actually an Immortal guarding Amber Livingston.
The Immortal Fox worshipped by Cedric Wilder must have sensed it too.
However, the strange thing is, according to Scarlett, the Immortal Fox grandma with Amber Livingston is actually quite weak in Spiritual Power.
Logically, even though the Immortal might not make things difficult for a fellow clan mber, they wouldn’t be so respectful either.
Could it be, there’s sothing special about Amber Livingston’s Immortal?
Lucienne Xander, upon realizing the change in Cedric Wilder’s aura, knew he was possessed by an Immortal. Even knowing, hearing him speak so unkindly about her still made her face turn cold.
However, rembering her purpose for participating in the show, she bit back her reaction.
She looked away, expressionless.
Over there, the Immortal possessing Cedric Wilder finished bowing but did not imdiately leave. Instead, he casually started munching on the nuts placed on the table.
Moreover, he not only ate them himself but shared so with Amber Livingston, inviting him to eat together.
Seeing everyone looking at him, he squinted his slit-like eyes and waved,
"You guys continue, don’t mind us."
Then he resud eating, absorbed in his own business.
Astrologer Diana Craig, after the initial shock, quickly cald down and smiled to greet everyone,
"My surna is Craig, Hedgehog Craig, just a single character ’Diana’. You can call Diana Craig; I’m an astrologer."
"Hedgehog?"
The Immortal Fox beside seed a little curious, sweeping his gaze over Diana Craig, sowhat puzzled, "Do you also worship soone?"
Diana Craig froze, quickly realizing what he ant, hurriedly explained in a low voice,
"No, this Hedgehog isn’t Immortal White, it’s... it’s just a pun..."
She is an astrologer and doesn’t usually have much contact with ghosts and spirits; her skills are average, so she is a bit apprehensive facing such a genuine Immortal.
Amber Livingston saw the situation, hurriedly laughed and chid in, "Yes, yes, Craig is Hedgehog Craig, like and Lucienne Xander’s Lucienne, it’s like detergent Lucienne hahaha."
Due to Amber Livingston’s explanation, the atmosphere eased for a mont, however, soon, a cold female voice chid in,
"You can talk about yourself but please don’t introduce my surna in such a joking manner; I don’t like it."
Everyone: ...
Finally, the atmosphere was completely killed.
Although the introductory scene was extrely awkward, thanks to Cedric Wilder being possessed by an Immortal and slapping himself on the spot, the broadcast’s popularity soared.
Netizens bustlingly discussed the dramatic monts of the live stream.
So discussed the difference between Cedric Wilder’s possession and Amber Livingston’s "possession".
Others were curious why Cedric Wilder’s Immortal was especially polite to Amber Livingston.
The rest focused on Lucienne Xander herself.
[Isn’t this Lucienne Xander too aloof? It feels like she’s looking down equally on everyone present.]
[Am I the only one who thinks she’s mimicking Scarlett’s persona?]
[Nonsense! My girl wouldn’t speak like that! Listen to her words, chatting with her for a minute can drive people mad.]
[I actually find her quite genuine. If I don’t like sothing, I don’t like it. Why can’t I oppose my surna being used for jokes?]
[Support the young lady in reshaping the entertainnt circle!]
Opinions about her were polarized, but thanks to the latter viewpoint, Lucienne Xander even gained quite a few followers.
Scarlett Jennings watched a while longer, noticing Director Clark starting to release tasks, signaling the guests to head to the task location.
She got up, getting ready to further research how to detach the system from the Wood Pattern Turtle and switch it onto the Crocodile Tortoise.
However, as she was just heading upstairs, she unexpectedly received a call.
It was Sebastian Carew calling.
She was sowhat surprised, thinking he was feeling inspired from the premiere of "Inspiration" today. However, upon answering, she heard Sebastian Carew asking,
"Scarlett Jennings, Chumian wants to talk to you, is it convenient?"
Scarlett Jennings paused for a second before rembering that Chumian was the childhood friend Monkey Demon who had tried to help Sebastian Carew escape a forced marriage by the Ghost King.
She was a bit puzzled, wondering what business the little Monkey Demon could have with her?
But she still asked Sebastian Carew to hand over the phone to him.
Then she heard the Monkey Demon’s loud voice from the other end, "Master Jennings! Can you hear ?!"
Scarlett Jennings slightly moved the phone away, saying, "I can hear you; no need to be so loud."
Chumian’s voice softened slightly, sounding rather anxious,
"Can you help with sothing? I reported to the Mystic Regulation Office but they saw I’m underage and refused to help find! The only person I know there is you!"
Scarlett Jennings was puzzled, "Find what?"
Chumian said,
"It’s a friend from my tribe; it was kidnapped by humans! You have to help rescue it! I saw online that it’s currently around Sea City!"
Scarlett Jennings raised her eyebrows.
Chumian’s tribal friend should also be a demon.
A demon kidnapped by humans? This was the first ti hearing of such a thing.
"Done by human Masters?"
Scarlett Jennings could only think of this possibility.
"No, just ordinary humans; they want to sell it."
Chumian replied, "My friend, though a demon, has only developed Spiritual Wisdom and can’t transform into a human like yet."
According to demon classifications, it’s still a Baby Demon.
Upon hearing it’s an untransford demon, Scarlett Jennings finally understood why it was kidnapped.
It must be a rare species, catching the attention of those illegal animal trafficking groups.
Although this wasn’t an assignnt from the Mystic Regulation Office, since Chumian found her through Sebastian Carew and considering the small demon is in Sea City, Scarlett Jennings agreed to help.
She promised Chumian to help find it and asked him to describe the species and its appearance in detail.
On the other end, Chumian seed reluctant to let Sebastian Carew hear, shooed him away and, after confirming he couldn’t be overheard, quietly told Scarlett Jennings the scientific na of his friend.
Scarlett Jennings wasn’t familiar with animals, so after hearing, she casually searched online. Upon seeing the photo, she fell silent for a mont.
This...
Is this a real monkey?
Scarlett Jennings’s expression was sowhat indescribable, not just because of the monkey’s appearance, but also because she had just realized.
The first mission announced by "Inspiration"—
Recently, several villagers witnessed an unknown mystical creature. Guests are to go to the village, find, and subdue the creature.
Scarlett Jennings suspected the so-called mystical creature was the Monkey Demon Chumian asked her to find.
