The Substitute Female Supporting Character Sees the Bullet Screen

"Can I go in to pay respects to Senior Sister?" Nie Yinzhi\'s long eyelashes lifted, her eyes swirling with light, almost matching the image in her memory. Meng Jin was momentarily dazed, only to hear her continue, "I have joined Master\'s school, but haven\'t properly paid respects to Senior Sister yet. Now that I think about it, I feel ashamed."

Meng Jin snapped out of his daze. Nie Yinzhi had been in the school for five years and had shown no interest in this Linfeng, why would she suddenly want to go in today?

"Your intentions are enough, Sister. I believe Senior Sister Lingling will be able to feel your sincerity."

He finished speaking without waiting for Nie Yinzhi to say more, his attitude unusually assertive, "Sister, you have just recovered from a serious injury, you need to rest more. I will take you back to Pill-Forming Peak."

Nie Yinzhi glanced at the faintly visible palace corridor hidden under the thick fog, and then at Meng Jin\'s expression. Brother Meng was clearly nervous, the more he feared her going in, the more she wanted to go in.

"I don\'t want to, I want to go in and have a look." Nie Yinzhi was just curious about the nearby area, the snippets of information in the barrage would not make her doubt her Master and Brother. But testing their attitude was always the right thing to do.

Meng Jin frowned, raised his hand to block her, "Sister, don\'t make a fuss, it won\'t be good if Master is alarmed."

"What if he is alarmed?" Nie Yinzhi was not intimidated at all, her feet glowing with spiritual energy. She swept past Meng Jin, rushing into the thick fog like the wind, her confident voice carried by the wind, "Brother Meng sneaked in, why can\'t I? Is there something in Senior Sister\'s old residence that I can\'t see?"

Meng Jin leaped after her, his long sword flying out from his sleeve, his voice stern, "Sister Nie, your behavior here will only disturb the deceased."

The bright yellow sword light pierced the thick fog, like a beam of intense sunlight, stopping Nie Yinzhi in her tracks. Meng Jin\'s tall figure arrived shortly after, holding his long sword in front of her, "Sister, let\'s go back."

"Brother, you know my temper, the more you don\'t want me to do something, the more I want to do it." Nie Yinzhi raised her eyebrows and smiled, exuding a spoiled arrogance.

Her expression bore no resemblance to the person from the past, Meng Jin felt annoyed deep down, "I can accommodate you in any other matter, but I will never allow you to disrespect Senior Sister."

Nie Yinzhi also cooled her face, unable to understand, "I just want to pay respects to Senior Sister, how is that disrespect?"

Meng Jin closed his mouth and refused to back down.

【Good guy, the love-struck second male lead is so cool! He\'s the one who gouged out the eyes of the wicked female lead for Lingling.】

【A substitute will always be a substitute, no matter how similar she looks, she can never become the moonlight in the heart, Sang Dog, come and copy your homework!】

【Here we go, the female lead is about to realize that she\'s a substitute, she\'s about to turn evil!】

["Can\'t you stop spoiling it? It\'s so annoying. The supporting female character isn\'t evil now. It\'s bad enough that she\'s used as a substitute, but she\'s also being exploited for her golden core and eyes. It\'s like she\'s been cursed for eight generations. I can\'t bear to watch anymore."]

["Don\'t worry, the supporting female character is definitely evil. Wait till you see how she tortures the female protagonist later on, then you\'ll know that taking her core and eyes is letting her off easy."]

["It\'s all clichés. If she doesn\'t turn evil, the actions of the male lead and the second male lead wouldn\'t make sense."]

["Please get your facts straight. It\'s not because the male lead and the second male lead took her eyes that she turned evil. She\'s inherently evil and brought this upon herself."]

["Haven\'t Sang Dog and Meng Jin treated her well these past five years? Even if she\'s not willing to be used as a substitute, she shouldn\'t vent her anger on the female lead."]

["How stupid. Doesn\'t Bright Sky Peak have prohibitions? Even if they don\'t stop her, she can\'t get in, right?"]

Nie Yinzhi silently read the floating subtitles. Just when Meng Jin thought she would back down, her lips slightly parted, "Ruyi."

As her voice fell, a sword light whistled from the horizon, striking the prohibition of Bright Sky Peak with a ground-shaking impact.

Meng Jin was furious, "You!"

Usually, although Nie Yinzhi had a bit of a proud personality, she knew her limits. Meng Jin was completely unprepared for her straightforward and brutal action, almost speechless with anger. The Zhuoyang Sword instantly rose from the ground, suppressing the Ruyi Sword under its bright yellow light.

Nie Yinzhi was already weak. Being hit by his sword aura, she vomited blood.

Meng Jin paused, "Junior sister, don\'t be unreasonable." His tone softened, but the sword aura suppressing the Ruyi Sword did not recede at all.

The prohibition on Bright Sky Peak was personally set by Sang Wumian. With her cultivation, even if she tried to break it hundreds of times, it would be impossible. Nie Yinzhi knew this well, and so did Meng Jin.

He still suppressed her so forcefully, truly as he said, not allowing her to offend the senior sister in the slightest.

Nie Yinzhi wiped the blood from her lips, her gaze fixed on him as if seeing him clearly for the first time, "Do I look very similar to senior sister? Especially these eyes."

So Meng Jin often cast his affectionate gaze on her face, and even Sang Wumian was increasingly lost in her eyes.

"I\'m a bit curious, just how similar do I look?" As Nie Yinzhi spoke, the smile on her face faded, her eyes slightly curved, her long eyelashes trembling, looking up slightly, "Is it like this?"

This was the expression she used when she wanted to please her master and senior brother. It was a little trick she thought she had cleverly mastered based on their attitudes, just like when she was at home, pleasing her parents.

The difference was, her parents saw her and loved her, but Sang Wumian and Meng Jin were just looking for another person\'s shadow in her.

"Nie... Junior sister." Meng Jin was startled by the malice in her eyes and involuntarily took a step back.

The thick fog was dispersed by the sword aura, revealing the two figures. The commotion attracted the nearby disciples.

"It\'s senior brother Meng and junior sister Nie. What\'s going on with them?"

"There\'s something off about their atmosphere... What\'s the matter? Isn\'t Elder Brother Meng usually very accommodating to Elder Sister?"

"Are they going to fight? Should we try to intervene? Elder Sister Nie is still injured!"

"Quick, report to the Immortal!"

...

Amidst the whispers of the crowd, a cold, stern voice carrying an undertone of authority rang out, "Stand down." The figure of Sang Wumian, the revered Immortal, gradually appeared from mid-air.

The many disciples who were spectating bowed respectfully to Sang Wumian. Despite their curiosity about why the two disciples directly under the Immortal were at each other\'s throats, they dared not linger and quickly dispersed.

Sang Wumian flicked his finger, sending out a sword aura that separated the two clashing spirit swords. The Zhuoyang Sword returned to Meng Jin\'s sleeve.

Nie Yinzhi\'s soft, boneless fingers reached for the sword light. The blade\'s edge took form in her hand, transforming into a bright long sword, which she then sheathed.

Both of them bowed, "Master."

Sang Wumian looked displeased, "Why are you arguing here?"

Nie Yinzhi saw the barrage of comments following her.

[Damn, Sang may be a dog, but he\'s got such a handsome face!]

[Hahaha, love triangle, my favorite!]

[Female supporting character\'s blackening value at 50%]

[Damn, that close-up just now, the female supporting character\'s eyes are amazing. Sister is so cool, it\'s not too much to ship for a minute, right?]

Meng Jin glanced at Nie Yinzhi. As always, he was the elder brother who doted on her, taking the blame, "We were just sparring on a whim. I was a bit too heavy handed and injured my junior sister. Please punish me, Master."

Nie Yinzhi didn\'t show any gratitude, saying frankly, "I saw Elder Brother Meng coming out from the Bright Sky Peak, and heard him say that today is the death anniversary of our eldest sister. So, I also wanted to pay my respects to her at Bright Sky Peak."

Sang Wumian\'s gaze became icy, as if it had turned into frost, falling coldly on Nie Yinzhi, "In the immortal world, there are no such mundane rituals. Activating my prohibition without permission..."

His voice trailed off, and he abruptly turned towards Bright Sky Peak. The dignified Immortal actually lost his composure, almost falling from mid-air. Sang Wumian formed a seal to lift the prohibition, his slender fingers trembling slightly. He had to attempt it twice before succeeding.

Bright Sky Peak had been sealed for ten years. The day the prohibition was lifted, the lush greenery and the beautiful palace were once again revealed to the world.

Sang Wumian didn\'t pay any attention to the others. As soon as the prohibition was lifted, he turned into a streak of white light and shot into the palace on Bright Sky Peak. Meng Jin followed closely behind, and Nie Yinzhi, without any hesitation, also followed.

Bright Sky Peak was filled with blooming flowers, the branches and leaves were neatly trimmed. There was incense burning in the palace, and a small cat was lying on a cushion in the corridor. It didn\'t look like a place that had been uninhabited for ten years.

A single candle was burning in the palace, warm as the rising sun.

"Master, it\'s the soul lamp! Elder sister\'s soul lamp has been rekindled, does that mean she..." Meng Jin couldn\'t believe it to such an extent that he even cut his own hand to make sure he wasn\'t dreaming. He opened his hand to catch his own falling blood, and looked up again.

That faint starlight was still there.

Oh, as the comments suggested, the eldest sister has indeed returned.

Nie Yinzhi stood to one side, like an outsider, watching her frosty master emotionally stirred for the first time.

Meng Jin was as excited as a dog.

The Ruyi Sword in Nie Yinzhi\'s hand suddenly began to tremble, the sword humming incessantly. The sword qi, sharing the same origin as her, rampaged through her meridians, struggling to break free from her.

The Ruyi Sword flew out of her hand. Without a second thought, Nie Yinzhi quickly formed a seal with her fingers. The Soul Binding Formation overflowed from her palm, trapping the Ruyi Sword in mid-air.

The Ruyi Sword emitted a dazzling light, the sword\'s hum intensified. Nie Yinzhi\'s already bloodless cheeks turned as white as paper, only her blood-stained lips were strikingly red.

"Yin, the Ruyi Sword belongs to Xiao Ling," Sang Wumian said.

Nie Yinzhi gritted her teeth, she had guessed it, "Then why did you give it to me in the first place?"

At this moment, Sang Wumian had no patience to explain to her. Regardless of the backlash she would face from the sword qi, he broke the Soul Binding Formation with a flick of his finger. The Ruyi Sword broke free and rushed towards the sky, heading unhesitatingly towards its former owner.

Two figures followed closely behind it, not sparing her a single glance.

The barrage of comments whizzed past, leaving only a few stragglers at the end.

【The female lead is here! Seeing the dog running so fast to greet the female goose, I choose to forgive him】

【Sang Wumian, hurry up and see the miserable state of the female goose, see how she crawled out of the abyss while you were looking for a substitute】

【Wuwuwu my Lingling is finally coming back, back to her paradise in her heart】

【Coming back to find someone else has replaced her, the female lead is really pitiful.】

【She has lost a lot of blood, she needs to eat more meat to recover when she gets back】

Nie Yinzhi\'s hands were full of blood from the backlash of the sword qi, dripping from her fingertips. She stood alone in the courtyard, exchanging glances with the cat hiding under the table.

She walked to the portrait in the room. The woman in the painting was dressed in the uniform of the Cloud Scripture Sect, holding a long sword. The picture showed the icy snow beneath the sword testing platform, but her sparkling eyes seemed filled with the scenery of spring, with a tiny tear mole below her eye.

Nie Yinzhi drew a circular arc in front of her, conjuring a bright bronze mirror out of thin air, and compared herself to it back and forth.

The person in the mirror had snow-white skin and jet-black eyebrows and eyes. Her nose was delicate, lips red and teeth white. Her peach blossom eyes were upturned at the corners, with a small mole underneath.

"It really does look alike." Nie Yinzhi touched her own eyes, and also the tear mole in the same position, leaving a shocking red mark on her snow-white skin with her bloody fingertips.

Was she supposed to look like this originally?
