[Cultivation + absurd comedy + sky-screen livestream + ensemble cast strikes back + unhinged fiction]
[A short-tempered, unhinged junior sister vs. a cool, aloof Sword Venerable who hands her a sword]
Sang Mian transmigrates into a cultivation novel full of angst, as a scapegoat side character. In the original story, she’s supposed to take the blame for the heroine, shield her senior brother from lightning, and sacrifice herself for the sect.
System: “Please remain kind, Host, and complete the sacrifice.”
Sang Mian flips the table on the spot. “I can be kind, but I’m not sacrificing myself. Whoever wants to die can die. My motto is to respect other people’s destinies!”
The next second, a sky screen descends, and the entire cultivation world watches the sect’s trial unfold live!
The heroine tearfully accuses Sang Mian of stealing pills, and her sect insists she admit her guilt.
Sang Mian nods with a cold smile. “That’s right, I stole them! I also stole Big Brother’s wig, Second Senior Brother’s height-boosting boots, Third Senior Brother’s love letter to the Demon Lord, and the sect leader’s melodramatic body-double romance novel from under his bed!”
The sky-screen comments erupt in laughter, while the whole sect dies of embarrassment and pretends to be dead!
Forced to kneel? She starts a class on the spot: “How to Recognize a Sect That Uses Moral Blackmail.”
Struck by lightning? She points her sword at the sky. “Aim properly! You’re as blind as you were when you chose the heroine!”
Sent to be sacrificed? She turns the formation around and makes it play a repeating compilation of the sect’s most humiliating moments!
Later, the Demon Lord comes to learn how to make snide remarks, and the Buddhist Son realizes that “being kind to yourself is the greatest compassion.”
Only that emotionless Sword Venerable silently stands behind her and hands her a sword. “Tired of cursing? Then cut them down.”
When the Heavenly Dao unleashes divine punishment to force the plot back on course, Sang Mian tears apart the Book of Fate and sneers:
“Trying to torment me was the biggest career failure of your life!”
The sky screen rumbles. For the first time, the lofty Heavenly Dao kneels before her.
It's so short, and I still feel aggrieved when I read it. Goodbye, I hope this book will be fatter when I see you again.
This book is truly amazing! Every detail is handled just right, making people want to keep watching. 😍
Still too frustrated
