True Tycoon Her Empire, Her Rules

Chapter 170

Along the trail, Mervin took it upon himself to educate his online audience about what to do if they ever stumbled upon a ghost in the wilderness.

While Winnie had chosen to share light–hearted tales, Mervin was dead serious as he instructed viewers on how to draw blood from a fingertip to ward off evil and how to chant incantations with the right hand gestures.

The audience in the live stream were speechless.

“He actually seems to want to teach us how to exorcise demons.”

“Great, my eyes have got it, but my brain’s already forgotten.”

“I’ve got it with my eyes. My hands, not so much!”

“Our mentor teaches arcane arts with a focus on sincerity.”

As one of the three representatives of the arcane practitioners, Gentry couldn’t miss out on the chance to showcase his knowledge when he saw Winnie and Mervin sharing some supernatural stories. With a chuckle, he said, “I’m not as

knowledgeable about the Mystical Sects as Winnie and Mervin, so I’ll share a story about the time a fairy visited me in my dreams as a kid.”

Gentry might not have had any real powers, but he was a master storyteller. After all, as an internet sensation and a self–styled oracle, his knowledge in these matters was

extensive.

As he walked and talked, not only the live stream audience but even the fellow guests were spellbound, and before they knew it, they had reached the summit of Golden

Horizon Hills.

Fortunately for the group, as soon as they reached the top,.the sky was painted with the hues of dusk, casting a breathtaking glow over the mountains, prompting awe from both the guests and the viewers.

The production crew quickly captured several stunning shots of the scenery.

They also took a group photo of the guests, which could easily be mistaken for a snapshot from a pure travel show.
