The Substitute Female Supporting Character Sees the Bullet Screen

[While I\'m lying in my room, a wife descends from heaven.]

[No, this is too straightforward. You need to argue senselessly, make up and break up again, discover each other\'s extraordinary backgrounds, find out you\'re mortal enemies, go through a series of painful choices that torture both body and soul, only to realize \'I still love you\' in the end.]

[Hey, that\'s the female lead\'s script. For us supporting characters, we just need sweet sweet romance and spicy spicy love.]

[Help! I don\'t see how the demon lord is infatuated with her? He\'s sleeping most of the time, when does he have time to be infatuated? You\'re so shameless. If the female lead had half your audacity and skill at clinging to powerful men, she wouldn\'t have such a hard life.]

[Stop being sour. Xiao Ling is such an elegant and noble female lead, how could she cling to a demon lord, right?]

[I need help too! It was just a casual comment, why are you getting so excited? Since when did you get to decide who\'s clingy?]

[OMG, the couple has already done the lifting, hand-licking, kissing, and bedding. They might even make babies tomorrow. That must make you jealous!]

[When did they go to bed?? I want to see that!]

Nie Yinzhi was eating the food she had ordered from the waiter. When she saw the comments, she nearly spat her soup onto the rabbit\'s face with a "puff" sound.

She had called herself his Mistress simply because this identity was reasonable enough to intimidate Feng Hanying. Whether he believed it or not, he would have to be cautious.

Nie Yinzhi was confident that given Gu Jiang\'s casual attitude toward everything, he wouldn\'t expose her lie.

Feng Hanying jumped backward abruptly, shaking his fur with a sour soup smell, glaring at her darkly.

"Sorry, I choked on it because I drank too fast," Nie Yinzhi took out her handkerchief, glanced at it - it was the one Gu Jiang had used to wipe her wrist, which she hadn\'t had time to replace yet - and casually put it back, "Move outward a bit, the sunlight will dry you quickly."

Feng Hanying was exasperated, "I saw your handkerchief."

Nie Yinzhi said sheepishly, "This one\'s been used."

The rabbit fell silent for a moment. He could smell Gu Jiang\'s scent on the handkerchief and suddenly realized what it might have been used to wipe. He hurriedly hopped into the sunlight, as if terrified she might actually wipe him with it, and said in unbearable frustration, "To carry such a thing with you, you\'re simply shameless."

Even though the Nie family was wealthy and Nie Yinzhi had countless handkerchiefs, there was no reason to be so wasteful as to throw one away after a single use. What was wrong with carrying it? How was that shameless?

She darkened her face, "Are you sure you want to continue speaking to me in that tone?" Even Gu Jiang had never given her cause for anger, let alone a stinking rabbit.

Feng Hanying keenly sensed that this crazy woman was truly capable of sending him to the kitchen to be roasted. A great man should know when to bend and when to stand firm. He suppressed his anger and said word by word, "Please forgive me, Mistress. This disciple knows his mistake."

Nie Yinzhi\'s face brightened at his murderous utterance of "Mistress," and decided to forgive him temporarily. Getting to business, she asked, "Do you want to get out of the Ten Thousand Demons Cave?"

Feng Hanying gave her an impassive look and sneered, "Of course. Who would willingly remain imprisoned?"

Nie Yinzhi silently thought to herself, your master seems quite willing. After she accomplished her grand undertaking, keeping Gu Jiang as her hidden treasure wouldn\'t be bad either.

"I can help you break the Demon Sealing Mark, you know," Nie Yinzhi said with a smile.

"You?" Feng Hanying began to sneer contemptuously, but remembering the woman\'s extreme pettiness, he quickly swallowed his laughter and changed his tone, "The Ten Thousand Demons Cave is guarded by the Wuliang Sect, the greatest Buddhist sect. There are over nine thousand Buddhist caves outside the Demon Sealing Mark. Unless Master acts, the seal cannot be broken so easily."

Otherwise, why would he have been trapped inside for ten years?

Nie Yinzhi gave him a look that said "aren\'t you stating the obvious" and replied, "Of course it would be your master taking action. Did you think that I, a mere Golden Core stage sword cultivator, could break through the Wuliang Sect\'s defenses and break the Demon Sealing Mark? I do know my limits."

You clearly don\'t, he thought to himself.

Feng Hanying remained silent for a while. If the Demon Sealing Mark were completely broken, he could lead the demons to return and reclaim everything that belonged to him. This was quite different from escaping the Ten Thousand Demons Cave alone.

Gu Jiang was suppressed by the Heavenly Dao and would eventually fall into slumber again.

But before that, he needed to confirm why Gu Jiang had awakened unexpectedly, and whether he would eliminate him first. After all, for the past few hundred years, he had thought his master would never wake up, like the other demon ancestors.

In this world, he was the only one who inherited the "Blood Moon Shadow," and Feng Hanying had been consuming Gu Jiang\'s demon energy almost without restraint.

"Your conditions?" Feng Hanying asked guardedly.

Nie Yinzhi rested her chin on her hand, dipping her fingertip in tea to draw randomly on the table, "As a low-level cultivator without any backing like myself, now standing in opposition to all the righteous immortal sects, I need to find some support."

Feng Hanying snorted coldly, "Isn\'t my master enough support for you?"

Nie Yinzhi replied matter-of-factly: "I\'m afraid of tiring him out."

Nie Yinzhi had carefully recalled that Gu Jiang usually wasn\'t this weak; he only became so listless after major battles when his demon energy fluctuated violently.

Good and evil had always been incompatible. Although Gu Jiang\'s power might temporarily intimidate those immortal sect elders from taking action, there was no guarantee for the future. She didn\'t want them to live under the watchful eyes of the righteous path forever.

Fighting against superior numbers clearly wasn\'t a wise move.

Feng Hanying: "..."

How ridiculous, she was worried about a demon?

Feng Hanying looked at Nie Yinzhi with an odd expression, "He is a demon ancestor. Do you know what it takes to be called a demon ancestor? Your righteous path often says that cultivation is an act against heaven, but in reality, most people can never reach the point of defying heaven. They\'re just insects manipulated by the heavenly dao. Ascension..."

A thunderclap outside the window made the pedestrians on the street completely unfazed, but the person and rabbit by the window both shrank their necks, trembling under heaven\'s might. Feng Hanying\'s rabbit form contracted into a furball as he closed his three-petaled mouth.

A ghostlike figure suddenly appeared at the table. Nie Yinzhi blinked in surprise and stood up, "You\'re awake?"

Gu Jiang frowned at Feng Hanying, reached out to grab the rabbit that had shrunk into a ball, and threw him out the window.

"Hey!" They hadn\'t finished their discussion yet.

Nie Yinzhi reached out to catch him but was too late, crying out, "This is the second floor, it might hit someone!"

The rabbit flying through the air was supported by a strand of demon energy. Gu Jiang joined Nie Yinzhi at the window, and seeing an empty spot on the street below, released the demon energy, dropping Feng Hanying there. "Is this better?"

Nie Yinzhi: "..."

The plump grey rabbit hit the ground with a "thud," raising a cloud of dust. It sounded painful.

Feng Hanying lay on the ground, feeling like his internal organs were about to shatter. People on the street gathered around to watch, chattering.

"Who\'s throwing rabbits around?"

"Such a big rabbit, must have plenty of meat. Looks like a Flame Rabbit, it\'s a specialty at the Jiangbei Restaurant."

"Does this rabbit have an owner? If not, I\'m taking it home to eat."

"What\'s wrong with you? I saw it first!"

Feng Hanying was so angry he could spit blood. Ignorant commoners, I\'ll kill you all! A black shadow emerged from the rabbit\'s body, opening a bloody maw to roar at the people fighting over eating him.

The crowd scattered in terror, shouting, "It\'s a demon beast! The fat rabbit has become a spirit, quick, call for an immortal master!"

Feng Hanying roared until everyone had fled, leaving a lonely rabbit crouching on the ground. After hesitating for a moment, he hopped toward the inn with a limp.

The innkeeper and waiters watched in terror as the demon beast approached their inn, not daring to stop it, silently praying for demon-subduing immortal masters to arrive soon.

Nie Yinzhi watched the determined but injured rabbit from upstairs, then sat back at the table to watch Gu Jiang eat. "These are all my leftovers. Let me order you something fresh."

"No need, it takes too long to wait," Gu Jiang methodically finished all the food on the table, accepted the tea Nie Yinzhi poured for him to rinse his mouth, and caught sight of the rabbit peeking from the stairway. He asked puzzled, "Why haven\'t you roasted it yet?"

Nie Yinzhi was shocked. "I was just scaring him. After all, he\'s your disciple." She said with grievance, "You didn\'t actually think I would roast him, did you? How could I be that deranged? Do you have some kind of misunderstanding about me?"

Gu Jiang remained silent, his face clearly expressing "what do you think?"

[Damn, can\'t blame Gu Jiang. When Nie Yinzhi said she would roast bunny Feng, I also thought she would really do it!]

[Congratulations! Nie Yinzhi\'s derangement has been officially certified by the Demon Lord himself. That\'s prestigious!]

[I\'m dying of laughter! Poor Yinyin, caring for the Demon Lord for nothing. Such a Demon Lord deserves to be exhausted]

[Oh my god, I get it now! When Gu Jiang threw Feng Hanying out the window, he was trying to help him escape! He was saving him from the female demon. Such touching master-disciple relationship, I\'m moved to tears. What about you, sisters?]

[Master Yuan Ming: Amitabha, Gu Jiang serving the demon is truly a great virtue.]

[Master Yuan Ming, please clarify which "serving" you mean?]

Nie Yinzhi: "..."

Aliali: 67567d42bd5e46c308c70fee

She quietly poured herself a cup of tea and drank it. After a moment of silence, she decided to change the subject, otherwise they would definitely end up arguing. "Brother, do you have any plans for what\'s next?"

When Gu Jiang heard her call him "brother," he knew she was up to something again, wanting him to do something. He sighed helplessly, "What do you want to do now?"

Nie Yinzhi rested her chin on both hands, looking at him expectantly: "Let\'s go to the Ten Thousand Demons Cave."

Feng Hanying, crouching at the top of the stairs, almost slipped and fell down. Why did this woman just blurt it out so bluntly! He hadn\'t even agreed yet!

Gu Jiang showed little interest, remembering that Nie Yinzhi had mentioned the Ten Thousand Demons Cave was very far from here. "It\'s too far."

"I can carry you on my flying sword." Nie Yinzhi paused after speaking, "Oh, I forgot, I don\'t have a sword anymore." She didn\'t have a sword; even the one she had was picked up after Xiao Ling used it. That spiritual sword she once treasured and maintained so carefully had betrayed her without hesitation.

Spiritual swords were all produced by the righteous sects, and now probably no weapon craftsman would be willing to forge a spiritual sword for her. Common swords bought from the mortal realm couldn\'t channel spiritual power and couldn\'t be used for flying.

Without support beneath her feet, she could only ride the wind. While this worked for short distances, long-distance flying consumed too much spiritual power, and she didn\'t have as profound cultivation as Gu Jiang.

"Then I\'ll buy a luxurious carriage. You can sleep in it, but first you\'ll need to find a way to evade the righteous path\'s surveillance. We\'ll go secretly."

Gu Jiang glanced at her, "There\'s somewhere we need to go first."
