Oh no, Eldest Senior Sister is marrying Mad Saber Three Waves!
Su Clan’s Seven was rushing over with the Copper Trigram Immortal Master.
On set, the Fairy of Fairy Lychee was already at the peak of her anger and could explode at any moment.
The fellow Daoists observed a moment of silence for 0.1 seconds for the 'Copper Trigram Immortal Master'... and then rejoiced for five minutes. This charlatan was finally finished; what a joyous and celebratory thing!
Filming continues smoothly.
Filmed according to the script, the second act involves the protagonist [Ling Ye] learning that his elder sister [Murong Hua] is getting married, but the groom is not him. This triggers a series of events that follow.
Before filming the second act, the director had Song Shuhang come on stage again and film a few more shots with Venerable White.
Scene 1: The Venerable White is covered in wounds, his body curled up like a shrimp, and he is still convulsing, looking very painful.
Song Shuhang formed a sword shape with both fingers and smiled coldly, "Ling Ye, this is the true finger technique! Remember your senior brother's instructions well."
Subsequently, Song Shuhang down.
Jiang Ziyan went on stage, silently bandaged Venerable White's wounds, and gently comforted him.
Scene Two: Venerable White, covered in wounds, lay flat in a corner of the arena, clutching a broken stick in his hand, seemingly unconscious.
Song Shuhang, carrying a stick and sporting a cruel smile, swaggered off the stage.
Jiang Ziyan went on stage and continued to silently bandage Venerable White's wounds.
Scene 3: Venerable White collapsed to the ground, clutching his chest, his face deathly pale and his lips turning purple.
"That's how you use your fist techniques, Ling Ye. A real enemy will attack your vitals. You're too cowardly!" Song Shuhang struck a cool pose and laughed heartily.
Next, it was Jiang Ziyan's turn to go on stage.
Meanwhile, the Eight-Armed Sword Saint, True Lord Ancient Lake Abbey, always serves as a handsome background figure, standing prominently in the frame with his arms crossed.
These scenes, after being edited, will become part of the storyline—[Gao Sheng Brother Gao Sheng constantly beats and abuses the protagonist Ling Ye, while Senior Sister Murong Hua silently supports Ling Ye, healing his wounds and comforting him].
Song Shuhang is going all out now; he didn't use a stunt double when acting in these scenes, he just went on stage himself.
After this series of shots was filmed, the director announced a short break.
A short while later, the second scene was filmed.
Song Shuhang, Venerable White, Jiang Ziyan, True Lord Ancient Lake Abbey descended from the dueling platform.
Shuhang casually asked, "Senior White, how are you feeling?"
"Hmm, not bad." Venerable White nodded and said, "At first, I thought playing dead was quite interesting... but in the later scenes, he was lying in the corner of the arena, which made me feel a bit bored."
The Venerable White's spirit was burning brightly; he craved more exciting plots than just lying on the ground pretending to be a patient.
Fortunately, these shots have already been filmed.
Song Shuhang, "Don't worry, Senior White. The next scene will test your acting skills. In the next scene, Jiang Ziyan's character, the Senior White sister, is going to marry someone else. You'll need to portray that anxious and uneasy state. That will really test your acting skills."
"Don't worry, this plot is no challenge for me. I just need to simulate the scene in my mind, put myself in the role of 'Ling Ye,' and I can act it out," Venerable White said confidently.
It seems Senior White is quite interested in the upcoming plot. Song Shuhang smiled and nodded, then complained about the plot written by Gao Moumou: "Actually, I feel this plot is a bit melodramatic... It would be great if the male lead could successfully disrupt Senior Sister's wedding, defeat his love rival, and become a perfect couple with Senior Sister. This kind of happy ending is the kind of plot I like. I still prefer fast-paced novels and movies."
As soon as Song Shuhang finished speaking, he suddenly felt a sharp gaze fall on him—it was Jiang Ziyan beside him, a sinister purple glint appearing deep in her eyes.
"I will not allow He Ren to ruin my wedding with the Medicine Master!" Jiang Ziyan said calmly, then added, "Not even those in the play."
Song Shuhang: "..."
Venerable White: "..."
True Lord Ancient Lake Abbey: "..."
It seems like Jiang Ziyan is taking this a little too seriously.
I have a feeling... what if Ziyan turns the 'wedding' in this movie into a real wedding for her and the Medicine Master?
Once the play is over, will she truly transform from a disciple into the dual cultivation partner of the senior Medicine Master?
Holy crap, thinking about it that way, it actually seems quite possible!
******************************
During the short break.
The Snow Wolf Cave Master and its family are preparing to make their appearance. They will act as rampaging, ferocious beasts, and just as the protagonist is rushing to his senior sister's wedding, they will severely injure him. This will result in a situation where the senior sister and the protagonist, Ling Ye, are destined to be apart, lovers unable to become a couple.
The Medicine Master was also pulled away by the makeup artists to begin applying makeup.
In the dressing room, several girls in charge of makeup untied the Medicine Master's ridiculous spiky hair and various accessories, let down his long hair, and then used foundation to cover up the dark circles under his eyes.
When these makeup steps were completed, the makeup artists were stunned.
"Completely different person" is the best description of the Medicine Master at this moment—has he transformed?!
After the makeup was done, the Medicine Master came out of the dressing room.
"Huh? Who are you, sir?" Northern River's Loose Cultivator asked, taken aback when he saw his made-up appearance.
The Medicine Master was originally about 182 cm tall and had a slender build. Now that his strange hairstyle was undone, with his long hair flowing down his back and his dark circles under his eyes covered, he had become a very handsome man.
"Haha, haha." The Medicine Master laughed sheepishly, "Brother Northern River, really, I'm Medicine Master."
The Medicine Master's smile was like a gentle spring breeze. He was already a kind-hearted cultivator, and this smile was incredibly heartwarming.
Northern River's Loose Cultivator: "..."
"Medicine Master?" Fairy Lychee's eyes widened.
The Snow Wolf Cave Master sniffed. "It's definitely the Medicine Master. Is this the power of makeup?"
Other members of the 'Nine Provinces Number One Group': "..."
Perhaps they will finally understand why Jiang Ziyan had to hide her true appearance as Medicine Master behind her ridiculous hairstyle and dark circles, as if guarding against a thief.
This Medicine Master is actually a hidden sweetheart. With his looks and superb alchemy skills, he'd definitely be a top choice for a dual cultivation partner in the eyes of many female cultivators.
"I think that if this movie is released, the Medicine Master will receive a lot of love letters from flying swords," Northern River's Loose Cultivator.
"I have a feeling that many female cultivators will come to me on their own initiative?" Fairy Lychee said, stroking her chin.
"Is the Fairy Lychee tempted?" the Snow Wolf Cave Master asked.
"I'm sorry, Fellow Daoist Medicine Master isn't my type. But from a female cultivator's perspective, Fellow Daoist Medicine Master is indeed a sought-after type," Fairy Lychee affirmed.
The Medicine Master scratched his head and gave an awkward laugh. He felt a little uncomfortable with his fellow cultivators commenting on his appearance, as if he were becoming a Volkswagen. Subconsciously, the Medicine Master's gaze shifted, searching for Jiang Ziyan's figure.
Soon, he spotted Jiang Ziyan at the entrance of another dressing room in the distance; she was looking down at her phone.
Jiang Ziyan sensed the Medicine Master's gaze. She looked up and smiled slightly at the Medicine Master, who had finished her makeup. Then she continued typing on her phone, contacting a fellow Daoist— Mad Saber Three Waves.
Jiang Ziyan: "Three Waves, are you here yet? Have you prepared everything I asked for?"
Mad Saber Three Waves: "Don't worry about cooperating with me. I've prepared everything needed for the wedding ceremony, including the Immortal Garments for the bride and groom, the lamps and candles, and the festive couplets."
Judging from this conversation... it seems Jiang Ziyan has cooperated with Mad Saber Three Waves? And even secretly released him?
Jiang Ziyan: "Where is the person I asked to invite?"
Mad Saber Three Waves: "[Grinning emoji] Don't worry at all, I've already brought Fellow Daoist Medicine Master's parents on their way. I'm very familiar with Fellow Daoist Medicine Master's father."
Jiang Ziyan: "It's a pleasure working with you."
Mad Saber Three Waves: "Pleasure doing business with you! After I send Medicine Master's parents to their aid, will you give me the antidote you promised?"
Jiang Ziyan: "I'm all ready. I'm just waiting for you to come, and I'll give you the antidote right away."
Mad Saber Three Waves: "That's excellent... By the way, Miss Ziyan, I just saw people in the 'Nine Provinces Number One Group' saying that the movie Venerable White prepared has already started filming? Are there any roles available?"
Jiang Ziyan: "Unfortunately, all the roles have already been reserved."
Mad Saber Three Waves: "Even the extras are gone? You're about to start the second act, right? I just looked at the script—in the second act, the extra who tells the protagonist 'Ling Ye' that 'Senior Sister is getting married,' is someone else playing that role too?"
Jiang Ziyan thought for a moment and replied, "I remember this role was played by the subordinates sent by Venerable Spirit Butterfly. You're going to play this role too?"
This is just a character who only speaks a few lines, yet Mad Saber Three Waves actually takes notice of him?
"This one will do. Just let me show my face. It's a big event for the 'Nine Provinces Number One Group,' how could I, Lang, be left out? Just let me show my face to show that I'm part of the group." Mad Saber Three Waves laughed heartily.
Jiang Ziyan said, "Then you'd better get there within three minutes. The second scene is about to start filming. It's just a minor role. If you want it, just tell Venerable Spirit Butterfly's subordinates, and you can get the part."
Mad Saber Three Waves: "No problem, I guarantee I'll be there within three minutes."
******************************
Five minutes later.
The camera is turned on, and all the props are ready.
Director Jacob: "Action!"
Filming resumed.
The filming location was moved this time to the shore of a small lake.
The character Ling Ye, played by Venerable White, is practicing swordsmanship by the lake.
Falling leaves fluttered, and Venerable White robe danced in the air, his sword energy crisscrossing. Although it wasn't a sword technique, Venerable White's strength was undeniable; even a few casual sword strikes looked astonishing, like an immortal wielding a sword.
Director Jacob and the crew watched the sword dance scene with secret admiration.
A minute later, the camera zoomed out, revealing a disciple also dressed in the 'Skycloud Sect robe' rushing over.
This disciple is the same junior brother who came to tell Ling Ye the news that [the senior sister is getting married] in the story.
When the disciple who brought the message appeared, the seniors of the 'Nine Provinces Number One Group' stared wide-eyed.
"Three Waves!" Northern River's Loose Cultivator.
"Eh, Three Waves Sanlang?" Fairy Lychee exclaimed in unison.
What's Mad Saber Three Waves doing here? Wasn't he being hung upside down and tortured by the Medicine Master?
Song Shuhang also looked puzzled. "When did Senior Three Waves arrive?" He didn't see Senior Three Waves on the Immortal Ark that came over.
The other cultivators also looked towards Mad Saber Three Waves. Could it be that the Medicine Master and Miss Jiang Ziyan later showed great magnanimity and released Mad Saber Three Waves?
However, the Medicine Master and Jiang Ziyan are not present at the moment.
They were setting up the 'wedding' scene in a large attic on the north side. After filming here, they would go there directly to film the wedding scene of the senior sister [Murong Hua] and [Feng Chuanzi].
So no one knew whether Mad Saber Three Waves had escaped or been released by the Medicine Master.
While the fellow Daoists in the Nine Provinces Number One Group pondered, the filming of the movie continued.
Mad Saber Three Waves ran to Venerable White's side.
"Something terrible has happened! Something terrible has happened! Senior Brother Ling Ye!" Mad Saber Three Waves gasped for breath, his hands supporting his knees, barely able to catch his breath as he spoke.
That acting was really good.
Is Mad Saber Three Waves really acting?
Venerable White sheathed his sword, though he was also wondering why the role of the 'extra' had been given to Mad Saber Three Waves.
But now is not the time to ask questions, and since it's just a minor role anyway, it doesn't matter who plays it, as long as they don't cause trouble.
The character Ling Ye, played by Venerable White, asked, "Junior Brother Ling Sen, don't rush, tell me slowly."
"Senior Brother Ling Ye ~~ Oh no~ Senior Sister Murong Hua is getting married, she's getting married to someone else!" Mad Saber Three Waves exclaimed anxiously.
"Senior sister, you're marrying someone else?" [Ling Ye] froze on the spot, unable to recover for a long time. With just a few expressions, Venerable White completely portrayed Ling Ye's inner thoughts!
"Yes, the wedding is in three days!" said Mad Saber Three Waves.
[Ling Ye] asked anxiously, "Junior Brother Ling Sen, who is Senior Sister Murong going to marry?"
"Senior Sister is going to marry a guy with the Daoist name [Mad Saber Three Waves]!" Mad Saber Three Waves said earnestly, "I've met that guy called [Mad Saber Three Waves], he's incredibly handsome. Senior Brother Ling Ye, hurry up and think of a way! Otherwise, Senior Sister Murong will be marrying that [Mad Saber Three Waves] in three days!"
Hehehe, Miss Jiang Ziyan, you're still too naive!
Together with the Medicine Master, they forced Lang to drink a large amount of bitter "Death-Defying Cure" and hung him upside down for so long... Lang is not someone to be trifled with!
A man who doesn't seek revenge is not Three Waves.
Didn't you want to marry the 'Medicine Master' in the show? Well, I'll let you marry 'Mad Saber Three Waves' in the show! Hahahaha.
Venerable White: "..."
Song Shuhang: "..."
Su Clan’s Sixteen: "..."
Northern River's Loose Cultivator: "..."
Dear seniors of the Nine Provinces Number One Group: "..."
First update, 4,000 words. I got home late, so I didn't have time to write 6,000. The next chapter will be at midnight. Finally, Happy Qixi Festival everyone!
