[Demon Lord x Movie Star] [Transmigrate + lighthearted comedy + entertainment industry]
The Demon Lord Yin Yao fails to ascend and plunges headfirst into the modern entertainment industry, where she becomes a bit-part actor at Hengdian.
She thinks the upper realm must be full of hidden masters, only to discover that spiritual energy here is so thin that even taking a breath feels like a waste. Mortals are everywhere, and even more absurdly, the streets are full of strange beings wearing human skin.
Yin Yao rolls up her sleeves on the spot: catch strange beings, find her father and brother, and become a star while she’s at it.
The stunt choreographer teaches her swordplay, and she turns around and swings the sword so fast it leaves afterimages. When a crew member deliberately loosens her wire during a suspended stunt, she spins in midair and lands safely. The director watches in astonishment.
While filming a variety show in a remote village, she’s shocked to discover that the man feeding pigs is her amnesiac brother, who’s taken up pig farming. Every day after work, she helps him feed the pigs, turn the soil, and repair the pigpen, turning a reality show into a real-life version of “Metamorphosis.”
Even more surprising, her father, who disappeared years ago, has become a well-known “fortune-telling fraud” in the industry, wearing floral shirts and giving feng shui demonstrations all over the place.
Just as the family of three is finally reunited, Yin Yao discovers that a strange organization has long since infiltrated the highest levels of human society, and even the head of the Strange Affairs Investigation Bureau has been replaced.
So what really happened when her father and brother supposedly “died and their souls scattered” all those years ago? Yin Yao rolls up her sleeves and grabs the Liuguang Sword. “I don’t care who you are. If you get in the way of me finding my family, I’ll wipe you all out.”
