The Metaphysics Ancestor Goes Viral on a Variety Show

[Please add my next novel, Mad Supporting Actress, Wrecking the Plot (Variety Show Quick Transmigration), to your reading list! The blurb is at the bottom.] The old master of the mystic sect, Yan Yao, transmigrates into the entertainment industry as a member of Super Idol, a flop girl group with just 800 fans across the entire internet. Looking at her contract, which still has two years to run, and its ten-digit penalty fee, Yan Yao, who can't sing or dance, holds up a finger. "Hey, want your fortune told?" On a dating show, the other guests are swooning over the couples, while Yan Yao looks utterly disgusted. "The male guest already has twelve women on the side. How can you still ship them?" The next day, the dating show's male guest gets exposed by Girlfriend Number One, Girlfriend Number Two, and the rest. The story shoots straight to the top of the trending searches. At a boy band audition, after a popular contestant has just finished performing and the other mentors have given their feedback, Yan Yao picks up the microphone. "You came to audition. Does your wife and child back home know?" The popular contestant's fans: "Thank you, Sister Yao, for helping us cut our losses in time!" On a survival show, faced with a perilous environment, Yan Yao calmly raises a finger. "Let me figure it out... Head south." From then on, Yan Yao finds paths and people, cutting through every obstacle with her ritual sword and leading her teammates out of danger. After the show ends, a top actress, a boy band top-tier star, an international movie star, and a long-reigning pop diva all become her adoring fans. "Sis! You're the only sis for me!" On a farming variety show, Yan Yao, broke and penniless, sets up a stall. When local thugs show up to cause trouble, she says: "Ten years ago, you killed someone. Their body is still buried beneath the locust tree in your courtyard." The police arrive in a flash, and a ten-year-old cold case is solved. Later... Yan Yao, who can't sing or dance, is about to leave the entertainment industry when she discovers that she's become famous. She's a top-tier star, always trending. Tens of millions of fans cheer her on, while stars from inside and outside the industry offer ten-digit sums to have their fortunes told. Yan Yao: ??? Let me go! I just want to retire, ahhh! *Upcoming novel: Mad Supporting Actress, Wrecking the Plot (Variety Show Quick Transmigration)* After dying from working overtime at her 996 job, Yan Dagong opens her eyes in another world, transmigrated and bound to an emotional-collection System. System: You'll transmigrate into supporting female roles on variety shows. You can only complete your missions by collecting enough emotions, such as the male lead's regret, the female lead's jealousy, or the second male lead's infatuation... Yan Dagong: ??? I've transmigrated, and I still have to work 24/7? The next second, Yan Dagong's eyes shift, and she breaks into a wicked grin. "I just have to collect emotions, right?" Love ×, a worker's resentment √ And so... On a dating show, a male guest makes a patronizing comment: "If girls study too much, they won't be able to get married. There's no need to get a master's or a doctorate." Yan Dagong raises an eyebrow. "So you studied to get married? Sorry, I didn't realize you were one of the girls. Come on, tell me which of these male guests you're interested in." The male guest's face turns green. On a workplace variety show, the boss launches into a speech full of gaslighting: "The company's performance was poor this year. Young people should work more overtime and share the company's hardships." Yan Dagong immediately goes full Ke Yun, snatches the boss's microphone, and slays on the spot! "You work overtime, I work overtime, the boss buys a mansion! You strive, I strive, the boss gets a mistress tomorrow! Every drop of our sweat shows up in the boss's bank balance! Come on, everyone! Let's work toward our untimely deaths tomorrow!" The boss faints on the spot. On a rich-family variety show, the female lead's friend splashes red wine on her and pretends to cover her face. "Oh, I'm so sorry. My hand slipped." As everyone waits for her to make a fool of herself, Yan Dagong leans back and knocks over a wine rack full of 1982 Lafite. "Oh, I'm so sorry. I'm best at falling and never getting back up." Yan Dagong turns to look at the 1982 Lafite shattered across the floor. "Looks like your family's fortune is about to fall and never get back up, too." The next day, the female lead's friend's family declares bankruptcy. The world kisses me with pain, so I hit it right back! Theme: Good and evil both get what they deserve.
