Even Chi Qingning, who didn't perform very well and had some negative rumors, gained several hundred thousand active followers. Many people were envious, their eyes turning green with jealousy.

Some small celebrities, not fully aware of the dangers at the time, saw how quickly Chi Qingzhou gained so many followers in just a few days. Even though they were gently advised to think it over, they were still willing to take the risk and give it a shot.

They figured if Chi Qingzhou could make it, they could too, and immediately made requests to their companies or managers.

Before the current episode even ended, the director was receiving numerous calls—both direct and indirect—suggesting they'd like to be on the next episode. The director was running around trying to handle everything, feeling both happy and stressed.

Fortunately, the aftermath of the livestream was good, which helped relieve some of his exhaustion.

Some well-off and free-time viewers, after watching the livestream, became curious about the Puluo tribe's customs. They heard that a large-scale ceremony would be held soon, so they decided to buy tickets and wait in advance.

Others, who didn't have time at the moment, showed interest in visiting Shangling County once the local government released a survey, saying they'd consider traveling there.

Some businesses, seeing an opportunity, started discussing long-term cooperation with the local authorities, setting up stable developmental relationships.

Although it didn't make the tourist spots go viral overnight, this steady, sustainable model felt much more reassuring.

Other local governments, seeing this success, couldn't help but feel a bit envious. They began to consider whether they should reach out to the program crew and inquire about the possibility of similar collaborations.

The number of tourists to Shangling County steadily increased, but it wasn't all positive.

Some people wanted to visit Yinping Village and try the activities that the guests had participated in, only to be told that the village was undergoing renovations and wasn't open for visitors.

They headed to other parts of the Yuhua Mountains instead and noticed that a section of the mountain was cordoned off with wooden fences. It was likely the undeveloped area the program crew had accidentally entered.

There's always a type of person who loves doing the opposite of what they're told. The more someone says "don't do this," the more determined they are to do it.

Seeing the newly erected fences, one particularly daring young man decided to sneak in. That night, he grabbed a ladder and tried to scale the fence in secret.

He thought that crossing the wooden fence would lead him into a regular undeveloped area. But when his feet hit the ground and he looked up, he was stunned by the sight in front of him.

The mountains were alive with fireflies, their tiny lights dotting the sky like falling stars. Vines that glowed gently swayed with the wind, and towering trees stretched toward the heavens. The fruits hanging from the trees shone like little lanterns, lighting up a winding path.

Countless white deer roamed the forest, their gentle calls filling the air as they turned to gaze at him.

He froze, holding his breath.

Then, a massive white deer, about two meters tall at the shoulder, slowly walked out from the forest, carrying a young man dressed in a purple robe of a grand shaman.

The man held a silver lantern that illuminated the scorpion-shaped mark on his forehead, his expression a mysterious mix of a smile and something unreadable. The bells on his sleeves jingled softly with each step the white deer took.

"It seems the ceremony needs to be held sooner," the man said with a slight curve of his lips, his eyes scanning the young man with an unreadable look.

Suddenly, the young man felt overwhelmingly tired.

At the final moment of his memory, all he could see was the bright stars scattered across the sky.

Inside the nanny car, Chi Qingzhou tilted his head and glanced out the window, his expression showing some surprise.

Du Huan: "What's up, Brother Chi?"

Chi Qingzhou withdrew his gaze. "Nothing, just noticed it's getting dark."

Du Huan didn't think much of it and replied with an "oh," then picked up his tablet to continue working.

Xing Shuangzhan subtly released a bit of ghostly aura, creating a peaceful space around Chi Qingzhou.

Chi Qingzhou smiled, "Brother Su, Ah Lai's body has become that of a ghost deity! As expected, a fated person is incredibly useful. Ah Lai was far from reaching this state before."

Xing Shuangzhan pinched the back of his neck. "It's normal. Your friend was at a bottleneck before. The feedback from the Puluo tribe's great tribulation and the enhancement from the fated person were enough to help him break through the final barrier in just ten days."

The program crew had rested in Shangling County for four days, followed by five more days of livestreaming. Now, everyone had already left Qingqing Province, and it had been ten days.

Ten days wasn't a short period, but for Chi Qingzhou, he hadn't expected Ah Lai to reach the level of a ghost deity so quickly.

He tilted his head, thinking for a moment. "Although what you said makes sense, it still feels a bit too fast."

Xing Shuangzhan chuckled softly, not offering a response.

His little contract person sometimes had peculiar ideas, but there was no need to deny them.

As long as Chi Qingzhou was happy, that was enough.

Noticing that his manager, who was sitting in the front passenger seat, seemed to have something to say, Xing Shuangzhan withdrew his ghostly influence, allowing the manager and Chi Qingzhou to talk.

"Qingzhou..." Guan Xihua turned around, his expression clearly complex.

Chi Qingzhou, puzzled, asked, "Brother Guan, what's up?"

Guan Xihua: "Didn't your brother, Chi Qingning, hurt his ankle during the show?"

Chi Qingzhou: "He dislocated it. He's been resting for a few days."

Guan Xihua: "Ah, so he still hasn't recovered? Paparazzi caught him being taken to the hospital for treatment."

Chi Qingzhou's face showed sympathy. "His body is so weak. He should exercise more."

Guan Xihua didn't comment on that but instead said, "This ankle injury of his came at the wrong time. Aside from the resources Song Yuzhi gave him, he's probably going to lose most of his upcoming deals."

Chi Qingning had always been in a good position with plenty of resources, and there were a lot of people who wanted to bring him down.
