Chapter 170: Chapter 170: Momo Ross’s Complaint
Sure, here is the translation of the text you provided:
Along the way, Evander Simpson continued to educate the livestream audience on what to do if they encountered a Mountain Demon in the mountains. Compared to the interesting anecdotes that Scarlett Jennings deliberately selected, Evander was genuinely serious about teaching viewers how to take fingertip blood to ward off evil and how to recite mantras and spells.
The livestream audience: ...
["He really seems to want to teach us how to ward off evil spirits."]
["Great, my eyes learned it, my brain forgot it."]
["Eyes: I’ve got it. Hands: I can’t do it!"]
["Our senior brother teaches Mystical Technique, and what he emphasizes is sincerity."]
As one of the three representatives of the Mystical Sect, Amber Livingston, seeing Scarlett and Evander both share a nugget of mystical knowledge, naturally didn’t want to miss the opportunity to showcase his insights. He chuckled and said,
"My understanding of the Mystical Sect is not as deep as Scarlett and Evander’s. Let me tell you a story about the dreams passed to me by the Immortal Family when I was a child."
It had to be said, although Amber Livingston didn’t have much real skill, his storytelling ability was first-rate. After all, as a mystical influencer focusing on the out-of-body fairy, his knowledge in this area was still abundant.
He spoke while walking, and not just the livestream audience but even the accompanying guests were so engrossed that they reached the summit of Sunbeam Mountain without realizing it.
Fortunately, not long after the group arrived at the mountaintop, the sky was filled with sunset clouds, illuminating the mountain range in a way that drew exclamations of beauty from the guests and audience alike.
The show’s photographers seized the opportunity to shoot several clips of scenery. They also took a group photo of all the guests, making it look like they were just part of a simple travel experience program.
Then, while it was still not completely dark, the group detoured and took a cable car directly down from the middle of the mountain. By the time they returned to the guest house, it was completely dark.
Due to the livestreaming, several groups had come to ask the guesthouse owner for the truth in the afternoon, all customers who once came with high expectations only to find out they were deceived. Unfortunately, Grayson Crawford had vanished after descending the mountain alone earlier in the afternoon, likely knowing that his true nature had been exposed and that he would face much questioning, so he simply hid away.
Luckily, the show crew wasn’t in the mood to see him either.
In the evening, the program team specially prepared a sumptuous banquet for the guests and two invited couples. The group laughed and joked until the livestream ended, then each went back to their rooms to rest.
Exhausted from the whole day, the guests didn’t even have the energy to scroll their phones; after freshening up, most of them fell asleep as soon as their heads hit the pillow.
Although Momo Ross tried to behave normally throughout the day, once the livestream ended, she immediately went online to check her reputation.
As expected, many online criticized her for attempting to blame Scarlett Jennings when she secretly kept the bracelet, resulting in a massive drop of over a million followers on her social media, and the comments left her temples throbbing with pain.
And this was after the efforts by her manager and fans to control the comments.
In contrast, Scarlett Jennings’ followers skyrocketed by another million. All the praise from the past seemed to have shifted to Scarlett overnight.
Momo felt inexplicably as if all her fans had been snatched away by Scarlett. She even darkly speculated whether this was Scarlett’s deliberate planning, stepping on her to achieve her own fame?
At this moment, Momo completely forgot that it was because of Scarlett that she could peacefully continue participating in the show that morning. She could only bitterly contemplate that all her current dilemmas were due to Scarlett pointing out the problem with the bracelet on camera, that she even knowingly left the matter unresolved, leading to Momo’s public embarrassment...
Just then, Scarlett came out from washing up, seeing that Ariel Zimmerman was already asleep, she gestured to Momo to turn off the lights and rest. Upon hearing this, Momo reflexively shot a glare and sarcastically retorted, "Who are you to tell me what to do?"
By the time she realized Scarlett was a master and she shouldn’t speak that way to her, it was too late. However, she couldn’t bring herself to apologize face-to-face, so she just pretended like nothing happened, turned her back to Scarlett, and feigned sleep.
Scarlett looked at Momo’s back, her almond eyes slightly deepened, and after a moment, she simply pursed her lips, ignoring it. Due to Grayson Crawford, everyone in this guesthouse was somewhat tainted with Resentful Energy. But Resentful Energy ultimately just magnifies the darkness within people’s hearts; it doesn’t create something from nothing. Thus, Momo’s attitude toward her, from some aspect, also illustrated her inner resentment.
Scarlett wasn’t hurt by her attitude. After all, aside from this show, she wouldn’t interact much with her in the future. Compared to Momo being influenced by the faint Resentful Energy, Scarlett was more focused on how to completely eliminate the Resentful Energy that should have dissipated.
The clock in the room turned to midnight. Originally asleep, Scarlett opened her eyes in the dark. Glancing at the two sleeping figures beside her, she quietly got up, tidied herself up quickly, and headed out of the guesthouse with her backpack.
Arriving at the starting point of the day’s journey, Scarlett casually tossed a Clear Breeze Charm,
"Heaven and earth are clear, cosmos combined in one, I command by Imperial Decree, gentle breeze come forth!"
As soon as the spell fell, it seemed as if a gentle breeze gathered at her feet, and Scarlett swiftly ascended the mountain with the wind, disappearing from sight in the blink of an eye.
Like a clear breeze, she rushed along the mountain path, and within an hour, she arrived at a semi-barren forest. According to the police investigation back then, this was the place where Grayson Crawford’s wife met her tragic end. Logically, with the soul gone and no remains, this place should no longer breed any dark phenomena. Yet, from what she observed, the Resentful Energy on Grayson was all sourced from here.
What she didn’t understand was why these lingering sentiments turned into resentment through Grayson didn’t affect so many people. Especially when those Resentful Energies, although not deep, seemed entwined in numerous threads throughout.
Given that her judgment wasn’t wrong, there must be something else in this mountain affecting the prolonged existence of the Resentful Energy...
This was also the reason Scarlett ventured out alone in the dead of night. Taking a talisman paper from her backpack, Scarlett raised her hand to set up a Talisman Array under the moonlight in the mountain.
Then, following the direction of the Resentful Energy’s threads, she searched step by step, finally stopping in front of a shaded moist ground. Despite the dry summer causing the mountain vegetation to wither, this plot remained moist, even emitting faint traces of Shadow Energy.
Locating the spot, Scarlett pulled out a prepared shovel and started digging swiftly. However, as soon as she shoveled, she noticed a distinct resistance. Her eyebrows lightly raised, without hesitation, Scarlett activated a Yellow Talisman and placed it on the shovel. In the next instant, the ground beneath the shovel was excavated layer by layer like tofu.
Soon after, it revealed an object beneath the earth emanating heavy Shadow Energy. A completely blood-red... skull.
