“Chapter One. The White Paper Doll. My grandfather’s name is Hu Guohua. His ancestors were large landowners that were famous throughout the surrounding areas. During their most glorious and prosperous period, they purchased three alleyways in the city that linked together forty houses. They were also involved in politics and trade, donating provisions to the city and assisting with transportation.”
It started off pretty normal. There were no out-of-the-ordinary ghosts or strange scenes. Everything just seemed as though Ye Lingchen was talking to himself.
However, that was also the reason why the story felt extremely authentic. When told by Ye Lingchen, it gave off the impression that he was recounting his own experience in its entirety—and with full detail—to everyone watching.
With the background concluded, it was time for the story!
“At that moment, the door curtain was pushed aside and a woman came out. Her skin was white and clean and her face was round like a plate. She had a large bottom and small feet. Hu Guohua’s heart thumped in surprise. Woah! Isn’t this the paper doll that I requested someone make for me? How did it come to life? …”
Suddenly, a chill rose from the depths of every listener’s heart.
Although they had listened to Grave Robber’s Chronicles and were already numb to grave robbing, Ye Lingchen’s narration really brought them into that scene.
It was then that the outline of Candle Blowing Ghost finally began unfolding slowly. From the white paper doll to the corpses, and then to the ancient tomb, all of which touched struck fear into their hearts.
At the same time, many people began to silently make comparisons between Candle Blowing Ghost and Grave Robber’s Chronicles. They concluded that Candle Blowing Ghost was miles ahead of Grave Robber’s Chronicles in terms of writing and storyline!
Grave Robber’s Chronicles was handled relatively sloppy in many aspects, and there were times where the story had plot holes. Candle Blowing Ghost, however, was a lot more rigorous. The story was laid out straight from the beginning till the end, and with every step taken, everyone was brought for a ride into a truly complete world!
A masterpiece!
Another grave robbing masterpiece!
Deep down, everyone was cheering before the live stream.
In particular, the loyal listeners of Grave Robber’s Chronicles had faces flush with excitement. They were all sporting a silly smile on their face.
[F*ck, man! Y-God is awesome! After listening to Grave Robber’s Chronicles, I was deeply fascinated by grave robberies, but unfortunately, I couldn’t find a second grave robbing novel. Candle Blowing Ghost is truly godsent!]
[To the commenter above me, I feel the same too! I think Candle Blowing Ghost can surpass Grave Robber’s Chronicles!]
[I don’t know why, but I think Candle Blowing Ghost is more genuine and fascinating!]
…
During that period, Ye Lingchen’s exposition pumped up the numbers in the live stream. It increased from the initial 2.2 million to 2.5 million and was on the rise instead of dwindling!
“Hmph, this is Y-God we’re talking about!” Song Qian also breathed out a drawn-out sigh of relief. The outcome was much better than he had imagined and his clothes were soaked in sweat even though only a short amount of time had passed.
He was surprised when he found out Y-God was still going to tell a grave robbing story. However, Y-God used his abilities to prove that he could tell a completely different story despite the concepts being the same.
“Dear listeners, the live stream ends here. Predict what will happen next and tune in again tomorrow.” Ye Lingchen smiled and ended the story.
Nevertheless, he observed everything that happened in the live stream instead of quitting it immediately.
[It’s over already? NO! Time always passes quickly when watching Y-God’s live stream.]
[Don’t, Y-God, I beg you. Please continue. Another half-hour is fine too!]
[It’s was exciting! I thought Grave Robber’s Chronicles was the pinnacle, but I was wrong. The only one who can surpass Y-God is Y-God himself!]
[Y-God is a genius. As expected, he can surpass his own classics whenever he pleases!]
At the end of the live stream, everyone who had been immersed in the story woke up. Fragments of the bullet screen livened up all of a sudden.
Next, an unending stream of rewards came in.
[Y-God’s Die Hard Fan rewarded the host with a rocket!]
[Y-God’s Cute Little Girl rewarded the host with a rocket!]
[Y-God’s Little Fanboy rewarded the host with a rocket!]
[Y-God Is Mighty rewarded the host with a rocket!]
The rocket’s effects were unending and on the rise, drowning out the bullet screen completely.
How shocking!
Everyone had forgotten how to type at that moment and rockets were the only thing one’s eyes could see. He inhaled sharply—that was all money!
After five minutes, the rockets kept on coming and the number of rich people were increasing too. They kept sending rockets in the live stream.
One rocket was worth RMB5,000!
Shocking was the only way to describe the situation. It was raining money!
Soon, Panda Streaming finally ushered in a full-screen golden banner!
It came one after another!
[Congratulations! Y-God’s Die Hard Fan has been promoted to Emperor in Y-God’s live stream!]
[Congratulations! Y-God’s Cute Little Girl has been promoted to Emperor in Y-God’s live stream!]
[Congratulations! Y-God’s Little Fanboy has been promoted to Emperor in Y-God’s live stream!]
[Congratulations! Y-God Is Mighty has been promoted to Emperor in Y-God’s live stream!]
…
Emperor! They were truly rich!
It was not an exaggeration to say that they were the backbone of the live streaming platform!
A line-up then appeared in Ye Lingchen’s live stream!
Y-God’s Die Hard Fan: Sorry, I was just too fascinated by the story. Reaction time slowed down a bit.]
Y-God’s Little Fanboy: [F*ck! I f*cking went to recharge my money, but I still didn’t become the first Emperor. This is irritating!]
Y-God’s Cute Little Girl: [Support Y-God! Support Panda Streaming!]
Those rich individuals appeared at the same time, and their strong aura of wealth plunged the live stream into a prolonged period of calmness.
[Have those rich guys left yet? Can poor folks like me come out now?]
[Huhuhu, I was scared to death just now. I was afraid that those rich peeps will bury me with money.]
[Do you know why I didn’t show myself just now? I was afraid that those rich guys will use money to seduce me. I’m trying my friggin’ best not to be tempted…]
“Thank you for all your love and rewards.” Ye Lingchen did not expect to have such a large appeal. He smiled and said, “Although Candle Blowing Ghost is the same kind of story as Grave Robber’s Chronicles, Candle Blowing Ghost explains the complete framework of grave robbing. The next story will be more and more exciting, and it will certainly be much better than Grave Robber’s Chronicles!”
Many people nodded in agreement with Ye Lingchen’s comment. Although they had only listened to the start of the story, in many ways, Candle Blowing Ghost was certainly much more mature than Grave Robber’s Chronicles.
They then heard Ye Lingchen continue, “Regarding the copyright of Candle Blowing Ghost, I am choosing to let it remain free! That’s right, completely free! This story will not be monetized in the future! If there are investors interested in the copyright, whether for animation, movies, or game development, it will be provided for free! My wish is for more people to recognize my story!
“Also, everyone knows why I left Huyu. But I’m not a vengeful person. I hereby declare that I did this not do this for revenge against Huyu. Please do not misunderstand, everyone…”
