Wait, How Did My Digital Girlfriend Become a Sword Immortal?

Chapter 155: Completely Blown Away

"Babybear, today’s livestream is crucial. Make sure you play your role as a punching bag well—don’t disappoint me."

"Mr. King Shrimp Sniper, I know you don’t respect me, but I expect every blind shot I fire with you to hit the target. Otherwise, I’ll shove your barrel straight into your own scope!"

Chen Huai’an slung his left arm over the strawberry bear's shoulder while gripping the sniper rifle’s barrel with his right hand.

After a round of friendly negotiations, both the bear and the sniper temporarily reached a mutual understanding with him.

"Let me introduce you—this is Baji and Xiaoqing. They’re your new friends. From now on, get along… or I’ll personally gut whoever starts trouble."

The toy bear glanced at Baji and Xiaoqing, its big round eyes flashing darkly.

These two must be important to Subject 0… If I kill them, he’ll be devastated. I’ll wait for the right moment.

The sniper rifle let out a sharp, mocking laugh.

Baji, watching the bear and shrimp pretending to be friendly, curled its lips in disdain.

A stuffed toy that just happened to be alive, and a stick with a spirit inside?

The first one was nothing more than a puppet with self-control, and the second was a glorified stick trying to be friends with a primeval vicious beast like itself?

Ha!

Still… considering Boss’s face, it would reluctantly give them a chance.

Xiaoqing: Bloop bloop bloop…

With all his actors in place, Chen Huai’an was feeling confident.

He now had:

A cat that could do backflips

A fish that could stand on water

A toy bear that could punch through walls

And a sniper rifle he could stroke like a pet

With a lineup like this, he was destined to dominate the pet influencer market.

He could already see money raining down upon him.

If this didn’t make him rich, he’d have no choice but to steal bounties from demon-slaying missions or risk exposing his secrets by smuggling goods between worlds.

Filled with anticipation, Chen Huai’an logged into his short-video platform account.

The moment he opened the homepage, he was completely dumbfounded.

Normally, his feed was filled with posing influencers or rich kids showing off their lives.

But now?

A fire-breathing dog.

An electrified snake.

People running across rooftops.

A child casually bending ten steel rods with their bare hands.

What the hell is all this nonsense?!

So, they’re not even pretending anymore?!

Back then, any video of supernatural events would be immediately deleted.

Now, the platform was actively promoting them?!

Chen Huai’an almost vomited.

He turned to look at Baji and Xiaoqing.

A cat that can do backflips? A fish that can stand on water?

Pfft. There’s already a cat online that shoots wind blades.

If you compared cats… some cats were better off being thrown away.

But Chen Huai’an was a responsible owner.

He would never abandon Baji.

Instead, he dropped a set of dumbbells in front of the cat and patted its head solemnly.

"You’re a grown Hakimi now. You have to learn to grind on your own and earn your own damn food."

"Your goal is to become a muscular super-cat. Don’t let me down."

Baji: "……"

Oh.

So Boss wants me to focus on body refinement.

No problem.

As an ancient beast, it had always cultivated both physically and spiritually.

If Boss liked muscles, then it would lean more toward physique training.

"Xiaoqing, you’re a grown fish spirit now."

Chen Huai’an dropped a pile of black stockings, white stockings, and a copy of The Little Mermaid into the water basin.

His voice was cold and commanding.

"You need to learn from mermaids. Grow yourself a pair of beautiful legs, wear stockings, and shake your ass to earn your own food."

"Otherwise… you’re turning into pickled fish on someone’s dinner plate."

Xiaoqing: "……"

I want to run away.

Chen Huai’an bit the bullet and tried a few different livestreaming ideas.

For example:

Wrestling with Babybear… but he kept tripping over his own feet and getting slammed into the ground.

Shooting targets with the Sniper King… except the targets kept falling over on their own before he could shoot. No matter how he tried to fix them, they’d fall again the moment he turned around.

Viewers kept leaving.

Chen Huai’an got so frustrated that he shot the wall in anger.

But the sniper got pissed too, unloading fifty rounds in a single burst.

The bullets collided mid-air, triggering a chain explosion.

The containment suite was instantly reduced to a battlefield.

Fortunately, the 15-meter-thick alloy walls held up.

Only a 10-meter-wide crater was left in the aftermath.

Chen Huai’an shut down the livestream.

After a whole night of chaos…

The sniper had lost weight and looked completely drained.

The strawberry bear was covered in black and yellow bruises, like it had been pulled out of a dumpster.

Baji, on the other hand, looked completely fine. It didn’t even have to participate.

As an old employee, it just needed to quietly lift weights.

Meanwhile…

Xiaoqing had already put on black stockings.

It had officially set its sights on growing legs.

Livestreaming.

A golden road to riches.

Chen Xianzun had walked it all the way into a black hole.

"To think that I, Chen Xianzun, once so glorious, have now fallen to such pathetic depths…"

He stared bitterly at his livestream earnings.

Tonight’s revenue: ¥38,000.

Refunds from underage viewers: ¥20,000.

Platform's 50% cut: ¥19,000.

Final balance: negative ¥1,000.

What the hell is this nonsense?!

Chen Huai’an grabbed a syringe and shot milk tea directly into his mouth.

This was currently the only way he could drink without choking.

He was so speechless that he actually started laughing.

Leaning against his battle-damaged sofa, he mindlessly scrolled through videos.

No more heavily filtered influencers.

No more rich kids showing off their money.

No more endless livestream product ads.

Only bizarre supernatural videos.

Suddenly, his finger stopped.

【Breaking News: At 9 PM Capital Time, the Forestry Bureau Director of C-Province, Li Wenbo, and Deputy Director, Zhang Bin, were found guilty of embezzling over ¥30 million. Li Wenbo is also accused of gambling, money laundering, colluding with criminal organizations, and even hiring assassins. A total of 57 related individuals have been arrested. The case has been handed over to the provincial prosecution office, and Li Wenbo is expected to receive the death penalty…】

This government-backed news video stood out like a wolf among huskies.

It slammed straight into Chen Huai’an’s face with its sheer intensity.

The video showed corrupt officials being escorted away by armed guards.

The comment section was filled with cheers.

Some netizens even claimed that the entire corrupt network was being uprooted, and that even their higher-ups would be investigated.

In a corner of the footage…

Chen Huai’an spotted the bearded guy from the Demon Slayer Bureau.

Standing quietly in the shadows of the Forestry Bureau, smoking a cigarette.

"...Trying to move me with this? To make me join the Demon Slayer Bureau?"

Chen Huai’an snorted.

But his eyes… were a little heated.

He scrolled away.

Paused.

Then reluctantly scrolled back.

"...I won’t lie, Bearded Guy…"

"This time, you really got me."

"That was… genuinely badass~"

…

…
