Chapter 4: Twerking for Survival

Scene 1: The Unwanted Technique

Luo Fan's body moved against his will, hips gyrating as the Demonic Twerking Technique activated. Shockwaves of dark Qi pulverized the ground, knocking Ling Yue off her phoenix.

Ling Yue (dazed):

"What… what *is* this obscenity?!"

Cursed Armor (laughing maniacally):

"GLORIOUS! Dance, mortal! DANCE UNTIL THEIR EYES BLEED!"

Luo Fan (teary-eyed):

"I'm gonna murder every last one of you!"

Scene 2: The Truce

The technique ended, leaving a crater. Luo Fan collapsed, the cursed armor finally loosening its grip. Ling Yue staggered up, her sword trembling.

Ling Yue (terrified):

"Y-You… What are you?"

Luo Fan (weakly):

"A guy who really needs a nap."

He tossed her hairpin back. She caught it, hesitating.

Ling Yue (suspicious):

"Why help me now?"

Luo Fan (pointing at the hologram):

"They donated 50,000 SC to 'stop being a coward.' Also, I'm sorry."

**[User [CelestialPeach] Comment: "Ship sailed! #LuoYue4ever!"]**

Ling Yue (pocketing the hairpin):

"I don't trust you… but I'll spare you. For now."

She flew off, leaving Luo Fan alone with the armor.

Cursed Armor:

"BORING. Let's find something to kill!"

Luo Fan (grumbling):

"Let's find something to eat."

Scene 3: The Rival Appears

At a nearby tavern, Luo Fan devoured spirit beast dumplings while the hologram buzzed with alerts.

**[Ding! New Subscriber Milestone: 1,000! Reward: "Heavenly Eye" Technique!]**

Luo Fan (muffled):

"Finally, something useful—hic!"

A shadow fell over him. A man in blood-red robes smirked, his own hologram floating beside him.

Luo Chen (mockingly):

"So you're the clown trending below me. Cute armor."

**[User [BloodyCultivator] Comment: "OH SNAP! RIVAL ALERT!"]**

Luo Fan (wiping sauce off his chin):

"Who're you? The edgy knockoff version of me?"

Luo Chen (leaning in):

"I'm the streamer who'll crush you. My viewers love real content… like torture."

He flicked his wrist, summoning a chain of screaming souls.

**[Ding! Luo Chen's Channel: "Blood Immortal" – 5,000 Viewers!]**

Luo Fan (standing):

"Sorry, I don't fight losers who need ghosts to look cool."

Luo Chen (smiling coldly):

"You'll beg for death by tomorrow."

Cliffhanger Ending

As Luo Chen vanished, the hologram flashed:

**[Ding! Mandatory Event: "Streamer Deathmatch" in 12 Hours! Loser's Channel Deleted!]**

Luo Fan (slumping):

"I just wanted dumplings…"
