Chapter 48

After finalizing the new book contract with Weibo, Luoyang returned to his dormitory.

Choosing "Living with a Flight Attendant" as his next novel was a natural process.

Because in his previous life, after "First Intimate Contact," there had been no pure love novel that had set the internet on fire—until "Living with a Flight Attendant" appeared.

"Living with a Flight Attendant" was the most popular pure love novel after "First Intimate Contact." The core reason for its sweeping success and the millions of readers who were captivated by its ending was one word: purity. Beneath the seemingly erotic title, the novel was incredibly wholesome, with no sexual content or cohabitation. It portrayed a gentle, pure love that had a profound, touching power... This kind of touching power, born from its purity, was called pure love.

This was also a work that had once caused a huge sensation and was one of the representative works of the pure love genre. To recreate the glory of pure love after "First Intimate Contact" and "Those Years We Chased Together," "Living with a Flight Attendant" was Luoyang's only choice.

As for why Luoyang was unwilling to let go of the work's copyright...

It was because Luoyang knew that "Living with a Flight Attendant," like "First Intimate Contact" and "Those Years We Chased Together," was very suitable for adaptation into movies and TV series. In the future, there would definitely be people who wanted to adapt these works, so the copyrights of these works were undoubtedly very valuable, and Luoyang would not let them go easily.

As for when to upload "Living with a Flight Attendant," Luoyang and Weibo had already reached an agreement.

The new work would be officially published on November 1st.

Because "Those Years We Chased Together" was still very popular, with extremely high click rates and forwarding volumes on Weibo every day, and was highly praised by countless readers, the readers were still immersed in the sentiment of "Those Years." Therefore, Luoyang needed the readers to come out of it, and wait for the craze of "Those Years" to cool down before releasing "Living with a Flight Attendant."

...

Since there was no rush to publish "Living with a Flight Attendant," Luoyang's attention turned to the Star Novel Network.

Recently, with the steady updates of "Unparalleled," the word count had reached 980,000, just 20,000 words away from one million.

Opening the backend, the current number of favorites for "Unparalleled" had reached 8.6 million, and the number of subscribers had reached an unprecedented 5 million!

Unconsciously, Luoyang had become the top author on the Star Novel Network.

Perhaps to give the old supreme god some face, the Star Novel Network did not widely publicize the fact that "Unparalleled" had reached 5 million subscribers—after all, this should have been a grand celebration.

Additionally, the 8.6 million favorites for "Unparalleled" was actually an inflated number. Many of the users who had favorited it were readers of Luoyang's two pure love novels.

Readers who enjoyed pure love novels generally had little interest in the action-packed and fantastical "Unparalleled." So, although they had favorited "Unparalleled" out of respect for Bai Yiqingcheng, they had no intention of reading it, which was the reason for the inflated favorites.

Looking at the backend data for "Unparalleled," Luoyang issued a notice: "Explosion today!"

"Unparalleled" had been updated steadily for a long time, and a suitable explosion could ignite the readers' passion. Coincidentally, the recent plot was at a high point, so the notice caused a strong reaction as soon as it was issued.

"It's been a month, and Bai Da is finally going to explode again!"

"My big sword is already itching... I'll give all my monthly votes!"

"I thought Bai Da was really planning to switch to romance and pure love, which worried me a lot."

"Exactly, the most suitable genre for Bai Da is still fantasy. Our brothers here are almost bursting with excitement!"

"The most important thing is that many of our readers also like Bai Da's 'First Intimate Contact' and 'Those Years'..."

"In short... it's not the fault of others, but the fault of Bai Da's extraordinary talent, he's simply a genius!"

"Bai Da's explosion, the Bai Yiqingcheng Alliance will follow to the death!"

The Bai Yiqingcheng Alliance was no longer the small QQ group it once was.

As Luoyang's fans increased, more and more fan groups were established, and the names of these groups were very uniform, such as "Bai Yiqingcheng Alliance QQ Group 1," "Bai Yiqingcheng Alliance QQ Group 2," "Bai Yiqingcheng Alliance QQ Group 3," etc.

All these groups were established by Luoyang's top patron, Xia Feifei.

Xia Feifei had great influence among the readers, and the entire Star Novel Network knew that Xia Feifei was a die-hard fan of Bai Yiqingcheng. Therefore, when the Bai Yiqingcheng Alliance series of groups were established, a large number of readers eagerly joined.

For this, Luoyang had even specially posted a chapter to thank Xia Feifei for everything he had done. This top patron of "Unparalleled" had given countless rewards and had cheered for him in the first monthly vote battle, making a huge contribution.

Luoyang's explosion finally began.

"First update." Refreshing, the first update from Luoyang had already been posted.

"Second update." Two minutes later, the second update appeared.

"Third update..."

"Fourth update..."

"Fifth update..."

"Sixth update, explosion complete."

A total of six updates, adding up to 20,000 words. Luoyang posted a chapter every two minutes, and the readers were all elated!

"Six updates... one million words!"

"I bet Bai Da is a Virgo, the word count is exactly one million!"

"Damn, it really is... exactly one million words... is Bai Da really a Virgo?"

"For those with OCD, this number is really satisfying!"

"Bai Da must be a Virgo with OCD, always posting exactly nine pictures... but I like it~"

The book review section of "Unparalleled" was already the most active on the Star Novel Network, and now that "Unparalleled" had really reached six updates in one go, the book review section was boiling over!

Almost every minute, new posts appeared, saying all sorts of things. Some expressed excitement, some expressed gratitude, and some were paying attention to the exact one million word count of "Unpaired"...

Luoyang also noticed that the word count of "Unparalleled" was exactly one million.

"Too coincidental." Luoyang was slightly surprised; he really didn't mean to make the word count exactly one million.

"One million words? Bai Da is in a good mood, here's a reward!" A reader named Coral Sea posted a thread.

Soon, the system announced Coral Sea's reward: "Clapping and standing up, no reward can express my admiration! Coral Sea rewards 'Unparalleled' with 10,000 Star Coins!"

The readers were first stunned, then they started to follow up with comments under the reward.

"Coral Sea... a new patron appears."

"Rarely with the prefix 'Bai Yiqingcheng Alliance'..."

"Feeling the leg hair of a great god up close, this is 10,000 dragon yuan..."

"Almost every few days, a new patron appears for 'Unparalleled'... it's really scary."

"It's all because Bai Da's writing is too brilliant, I have to say Bai Da is awesome!"

To be honest, for the readers, the appearance of new patrons for "Unparalleled" had become a common occurrence.

"Clapping and standing up, no reward can express my admiration! Coral Sea rewards 'Unparalleled' with 10,000 Star Coins!"

At this moment, another 10,000 Star Coin reward appeared, this time from a reader named Pen Under Book, who was also a new face.

"Two new patrons in one day..."

"Bai Da's timing for this one million word update is really clever."

"Ha ha ha, Bai Da is a clever boy!" Many fans were joking, and for the fans, the appearance of more patrons for their favorite book made them happy.

Luoyang also saw these two rewards. Since he had nothing to do, he clicked into the threads and replied: "Thank you for your support."

"Damn, damn, the one above must be Bai Da himself!" Because Luoyang's ID was Bai Yiqingcheng, as soon as he replied, he was caught by the readers.

"Absolutely! Bai Da, I love you, never this close before!"

"Seeing the cold Bai Da reply to a thread in my lifetime..."

"Caught a great god, I'm going to roast him, should I add cumin...?" Many readers were very excited because Bai Da was definitely the coldest author on the Star Novel Network, rarely asking for votes and rarely replying to book reviews. Today, he appeared in the book review section, so everyone was pleasantly surprised.

"Clapping and standing up, no reward can express my admiration! Ren Chuangchuang rewards 'Unparalleled' with 10,000 Star Coins!"

Today, "Unparalleled" seemed to be very lively. The first two red notices were still warm, and the third red notice appeared. At the same time, a system-generated post suddenly appeared in the Star Novel Network's system announcement bar...

"Congratulations to 'Unparalleled' for achieving the Thousand Patrons Achievement!"

(Thank you, Pen Under Book, for the reward, two updates today)
