Fairy Lychee Wants to Play the Second Female Lead!

"Hmm, I almost forgot if Fairy Flowing Firefly hadn't mentioned it. Shuhang, you haven't fulfilled the punishment we agreed on—'staying in space for a month'—after you lost the Hand Tractor Race," Venerable White muttered, stroking his chin.

Song Shuhang was terrified. Was he about to be sent flying into space by a 'Disposable Flying Sword' in the next second? Given Senior White's personality, it seemed like he really might do that.

No!

Although he loves space and once dreamed of being a handsome astronaut uncle when he was a child, he really doesn't want to go to space again now.

Moreover, he spent more than a month in the 'Time City' Underground City of the Jadewater Pavilion.

Song Shuhang: "Senior White, actually, in a sense, I've been in space for over a month! Let me explain..."

"You've entered time-related Secret Realm before, haven't you?" Venerable White asked with a smile.

Song Shuhang: "Huh? Senior White, how did you know?"

"Because the 'Myriad-Mile Escape Talisman' I gave you was activated just a few days after you entered space," said Venerable White.

As he spoke, Venerable White Dao Initiation in the 'Nine Provinces Number One Group': '@Fairy Flowing Firefly, the matter of my friend Shuhang spending a month in the universe has been completed. This matter can be concluded here.'

"Huh? Is that so?" Fairy Flowing Firefly seemed quite disappointed. Her obsessive-compulsive disorder kicked in again; she felt uneasy, as if Shuhang hadn't stayed for a full month.

Venerable White chuckled softly. He then took out his phone, preparing to dial the number of the "Crying Old Man"—Song Shuhang had returned to Earth, so the Crying Old Man no longer needed to guard the trials in space while waiting for Shuhang; he could be allowed to return.

However, the call to Venerable White was unsuccessful.

The Crying Old Man seems to be in a place where signals are blocked... As a result, without knowing the Crying Old Man's coordinates, even the Thousand-Mile Voice Transmission spell cannot be used.

Never mind, I'll try to contact him again later.

The Venerable White thought to himself.

At this moment, the Crying Old Man bravely arrived at the entrance of the Jadewater Pavilion once again, guarding his future.

A moment later, fellow cultivators in the Nine Provinces Number One Group also set their sights on their own characters.

Fairy Lychee: "@Venerable White, how about I play the second female lead in the story, the ghost female lead [Ling'er]? I don't know why, but I suddenly really want to play this ghost female lead."

Venerable White: "No problem. If Fairy Lychee has nothing else to do, please come over quickly. We might start filming a movie today."

"So soon? I'll set off as soon as possible!" Fairy Lychee chuckled.

Song Shuhang, who was standing to the side, pinched his chin. When he saw that Fairy Lychee was going to play a 'female Spirit Ghost ', he suddenly thought of Senior Sister Ye Si, who was far away in 'Jadewater Pavilion'.

The reason he thought of Senior Sister Ye Si was because he remembered something... Copper Trigram Immortal Master disguised himself as Fairy Lychee and entered Jadewater Pavilion as a guest with Doudou.

Senior Sister Ye Si, however, sensed a warm and familiar aura emanating from the 'Fairy Lychee' disguised as the Copper Trigram Immortal Master. She described that warm aura as "a motherly aura."

Is it a coincidence?

At this moment, Venerable White spoke up, "Shuhang, stop daydreaming and write this down. Fairy Lychee will be playing the second female lead, 'Ling'er'."

"Sorry, I was daydreaming." Shuhang quickly wrote down the Fairy Lychee in the cast list.

Nine Provinces Number One Group.

True Lord Dustfall: "I'll play the sect leader of the Skycloud Sect, [Daoist Inaction]. He leads the entire sect to resist the sudden attack of the mysterious demonic forces. To protect the future of his sect, he fights his way through the demonic army, only to be killed by a thousand arrows from the demonic army. I really like this kind of role."

Venerable White: "No problem."

Northern River's Loose Cultivator: "I didn't realize that Dustfall Luochen would be interested in tragic heroes and the like?"

"Haha, maybe it's because I usually don't care about anything that I like this kind of character," True Lord Dustfall laughed.

Bright Moon, When Will You Be?: "I'll play the Magic City [Evil General Bright Moon] who destroyed the Skycloud Sect. This character has a strong presence, I'm taking him!"

Venerable White: "Alright, I'll have Shuhang write it down."

Song Shuhang nodded and noted down [Evil General Bright Moon] in the cast list, actor: Zui Jushi (?).

For some reason, he suddenly couldn't remember what the middle character of the phrase "Bright Moon, When Will You Be?" was.

I only remembered the word 'drunk' because I've been so drunk these past few days. I'll ask Senior White about it later.

At this moment, someone else spoke up in the group.

Young Master Phoenix Slayer: "Then I'll play the guardian beast of the Skycloud Sect, the [Heaven-Swallowing Cat]. It carries all the inheritance of the Skycloud Sect and eventually finds the protagonist, becoming his guardian beast. I really like this role. Also, could you let Doudou play the demonic beast, the [Hell Demon Hound]? In the last scene, the Heaven-Swallowing Cat tears off ten heads of the Hell Demon Hound and swallows it whole. I feel that if Doudou plays the opposite role, I'll feel very immersed in the role and can guarantee a natural performance."

Venerable White: "@True Lord Yellow Mountain, can Doudou act in this play? There's not much of a rush, Doudou's appearance will be near the end of filming, right? It shouldn't affect your wedding arrangements for Doudou?"

True Lord Yellow Mountain: "No problem, I agree on Doudou's behalf."

Venerable White: "Then it's settled."

"Doudou," Song Shuhang chuckled—speaking of which, if Senior Phoenix Slayer is coming too, then I can borrow his CPU, right?

At this moment, True Lord White Crane finally found a suitable role for him. "Shuhang, this role is assigned to me. The [White-Clad Swordsman] of the Grand White Sword Sect, the second male lead, the protagonist's best friend and drinking buddy, who secretly helps and encourages the protagonist when he is at his most depressed. This role is perfect for me."

Song Shuhang nodded, preparing to memorize the role of True Lord White Crane.

But suddenly, he remembered the character's complete backstory.

Grand White Sword Sect Fan Bai White-Clad Swordsman, is the second male lead (fake), the protagonist's best friend and drinking buddy. He is petite and has a handsome face.

In the end... she married her Senior Brother Gao Sheng, and they both died in the great battle against the demons.

Flip the table!

What kind of plot is this?!

Petite figure, I see... This character was created by Gao Moumou for his girlfriend 'Mei Yi'.

But in the movie, he's supposed to marry the True Lord White Crane?

No, no, he can't accept that.

Therefore, Song Shuhang said seriously to True Lord White Crane, "No, True Lord, you can't play this role."

"Why?" True Lord White Crane retorted. He had finally found a role that could accompany the protagonist, 'Senior White,' throughout the story, so why wouldn't Song Shuhang let him play it?

"I feel that Senior White Crane's figure is not petite enough. This role... would be best played by Sixteen!" Song Shuhang recommended.

"Foolish young friend, you know far too little about our race." True Lord White Crane smiled coldly, and three pairs of wings spread behind him, his body glowing slightly.

Under the light, its shape quickly changed again. It transformed into a petite figure with delicate features.

The White Crane Clan has no gender distinction before finding true love. Therefore, after cultivating into human form, the True Lord White Crane also has two human forms.

Although both are gender-neutral forms... one is a gender-neutral form leaning towards masculinity, and the other is a gender-neutral form leaning towards femininity.

This petite form represents the androgynous, slightly feminine form of the True Lord White Crane.

"Moreover, young friend Sixteen uses a saber technique, while I practice swordsmanship. This role of the White-Clad Swordsman is none other than mine!" True Lord White Crane said proudly in a clear and melodious voice.

Song Shuhang opened his mouth, wondering what to do. How could he possibly refute True Lord White Crane?

Venerable White nodded. "Very good, it's settled then."

And that's how the role was decided.

Song Shuhang vowed that when the time came, he would definitely pass the role of "Senior Brother Gao Sheng" to another fellow cultivator!

Su Clan’s Sixteen chuckled; she had her eye on a different character: the last surviving disciple of the Grand White Sword Sect, [Blade Without Trace], and the only female disciple in the Grand White Sword Sect who practiced swordsmanship.

In the Grand White Sword Sect, the female disciples who chose to practice swordsmanship... resonated with her somewhat. The Heavenly River Su Clan possessed dozens of top-grade cultivation techniques. Her elders had also recommended several techniques suitable for female cultivators. But in the end, she chose to practice swordsmanship, just like A-Qi.

That's all...

Each role was carefully assigned.

Whether you're playing a righteous character, a villain, or an ordinary person, there's something for everyone in the Nine Provinces Number One Group.

"Finally done." Song Shuhang exclaimed, clutching the long list of actors.

"So what do we do next?" Venerable White's acting spirit was already burning brightly; he couldn't wait to start acting immediately.

As for memorizing lines... powerful cultivators say they don't need to at all. They can remember anything they've seen just once, and they're not afraid of forgetting it.

Song Shuhang thought for a moment and said, "If the actors, director, and crew are all in place, the next important things should be 'costumes' and 'scenes.' Let's talk about scenes first. For example, the first scene, although it opens with a duel between the protagonist [Ling Ye] and his senior brother [Gao Sheng], should start with a shot of the 'Skycloud Sect's' mountain gate. An aerial view of a fantasy sect, then gradually zooming in until the scene shifts to the dueling arena. Normally, this kind of scene is done with computer special effects. Should we just find a sect to film a scene here?"

"Hmm, no need for all that trouble. Let's just film at one of my vacation retreats," said Venerable White. "A long time ago, I found an abandoned mid-sized sect's headquarters. The scenery there was quite nice, and the spiritual energy was abundant. I don't know why that sect abandoned it back then. After I found the headquarters, I spent money to renovate the entire place and turned it into my vacation retreat. Let's choose that place to film the first scene."

"Then, the 'desert space' needed for the final battle can be filmed using my 'Real Illusion' as the setting," Venerable White added.

Song Shuhang felt that when Venerable White said those words, an air of extravagance emanated from him.

Do you still have monthly passes? Oh dear!
