The Journey to Godhood in Another World

Chapter 66 Confrontation

As night fell and the city lights came on, the city was bathed in dazzling lights. In her dormitory at Shanghai University, Luo Li sat quietly in her cozy room. The clock hands quietly pointed to 7:30. She took a deep breath and turned on her live stream right on time.

Instantly, a flood of people poured into the live stream, the number of viewers skyrocketed, and the barrage of comments on the screen scrolled wildly, dense and dazzling.

Luo Li felt both nervous and determined. She knew that today's live broadcast would be a crucial battle concerning her reputation.

"Hello everyone, welcome to my live stream." Luo Li tried her best to make her voice sound calm and friendly, with a faint smile on her face, but a hint of nervousness could not be hidden in her eyes.

The comments in the live stream were in complete chaos, with all sorts of voices rising and falling.

"Luo Li, you plagiarist, you're shameless!"

"I believe Luo Li wouldn't plagiarize; there must be some misunderstanding!"

"Let's wait and see, and remain neutral."

……

Looking at the comments, Luo Li felt a mix of emotions. She gently bit her lip, then randomly picked questions to answer, trying to calm the situation.

"Luo Li, why isn't Zhao Shiya here yet? Is she too scared?" a fan asked in the live chat.

This sentence instantly drew everyone's attention to Zhao Shiya, who had not yet appeared. In an instant, everyone flocked to Zhao Shiya's Weibo account, urging her to enter the live broadcast room.

Zhao Shiya's comment section was instantly flooded with a massive amount of messages, and her phone notifications went off incessantly, as if they were about to shatter the entire internet.

Amidst the anxious urging and eager anticipation of her fans, Zhao Shiya arrived late.

Her voice and video account openly displayed her real name. From the video, she looked like an innocent little lamb, with her soft hair casually falling over her shoulders, and her delicate makeup was made slightly poignant by the deliberately created sense of grievance.

Luo Li kept a close eye on the live stream. As soon as Zhao Shiya came online, she swiftly and decisively clicked to send a video request.

After a brief yet seemingly endless wait, the video call connected, and the live stream screen instantly split in two, like two opposing battlefields.

Luo Li remained calm and dignified, a stark contrast to Zhao Shiya.

As soon as Zhao Shiya appeared on screen, she began her pitiful performance.

Her shoulders trembled slightly, like fragile leaves in the autumn wind, and tears welled up in her eyes, like a lake about to burst its banks.

The voice, tinged with heartbreaking sobs, cried out plaintively, "Luo Li, how could you be so cruel? You stole my masterpiece! Have you ever considered the darkness that has plunged into my life?"

As she spoke, she gently raised her slender fingers, with an almost imperceptible elegance and deliberate gesture, and slowly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes. Her seemingly casual gaze, however, was like a venomous snake hidden in the grass, secretly observing Luo Li's every move, trying to find a flaw or panic in her expression.

Luo Li scoffed at the clumsy acting in her heart and sneered inwardly, but she still maintained a calm and composed demeanor on her face.

She parted her lips slightly, responding in a calm yet firm tone: "You keep claiming that Lu Jinchen gave me your and your teacher's work, and then I published it, but you have never provided any solid evidence. To this day, I don't even know who your so-called teacher is. I, on the other hand, can produce legal and valid copyright proof. At this moment, I demand that you two, teacher and student, immediately present your evidence and stop this baseless slander."

As she spoke, Luo Li's eyes were like a sharp sword, staring firmly into the camera, as if trying to see through the cold lens and pierce through all the conspiracies and schemes behind it.

Upon hearing Luo Li's words, Zhao Shiya's eyes visibly panicked, and her fingers unconsciously twisted together, inwardly groaning.

"What an idiot, what's he panicking for!" Ji Yajun, who was watching all this from behind the scenes, couldn't help but mutter under his breath.

Seeing that Zhao Shiya was struggling to achieve the desired results, he frowned. After a moment of thought, he quickly contacted Liu Sheng, a platinum composer at Brilliant Entertainment, and asked him to join the live broadcast.

Liu Sheng was promoted to platinum composer this year. At this moment, he was sitting in his luxurious music studio, surrounded by various musical instruments and music trophies, which shone brightly under the lights.

When he received Ji Yajun's call, he hesitated for a moment, but thinking of the fame and fortune it might bring, he agreed.

After entering the live broadcast room, Liu Sheng took out a manuscript of "Parting Blossoms" and held it high in front of the camera to show the audience.

"Look, everyone, this is the draft of 'Parting Blossoms,' dated early August, much earlier than when Luo Li released the song."

His voice was loud and confident, with a hint of smugness on his face, but his eyes kept glancing at the screen, observing the audience's reactions.

"This song was originally written for my apprentice Zhao Shiya, hoping to make her an overnight sensation, but I never expected that Luo Li would steal it." As she spoke, Liu Sheng appeared heartbroken.

Luo Li couldn't help but smile when she saw this. She recalled her experiences at the beginning of her transmigration and felt a sense of relief.

The copyright application rules in this world are unique. Apart from the author, who can see the exact application time, others can only search to find out who the copyright holder is.

Fearing she would forget the classic melodies from her past life, Luo Li applied for copyrights for all the songs she could remember starting in July after her transmigration. This song, "Parting Blossoms," was applied for in mid-July.

Previously, the copyright certificate she posted online did not include the application date; this time, she wants to make sure everyone sees it clearly.

Luo Li calmly took out the copyright certificate with detailed application dates and displayed it in front of the camera. The bright light shone on the certificate, making the application dates clearly visible.

"Look, this is my copyright application date, mid-July, which is earlier than their so-called draft date."

Luo Li's voice was steady and powerful, and her eyes revealed confidence and composure. She sat up straight, like a queen guarding her territory.

However, Ji Yajun had already hired an online army. The online army frantically stirred up trouble in the live chat: "This must be fake, how could it be such a coincidence!"

"Luo Li must have powerful backers; she's fabricating evidence!"

……

Driven by online trolls, many viewers who were unaware of the truth began to waver and expressed their disbelief in Luo Li.

Looking at the doubts on the screen, Luo Li felt a pang of sorrow.

She knew that sometimes people only believe what they want to believe, and you can never wake someone who is pretending to be asleep.

Her September results were so outstanding that it was hard for anyone to believe that someone could be so talented, so they preferred to believe that she was a plagiarist.

The controversy in the live stream continues, and whether Luo Li can completely clear her name and reveal the truth to the world remains to be seen.
