All-rounder Artist-Chapter 791 - 753: Start Killing_1
Blue Star's dramas usually adopt a 'shoot-as-you-go' process where two episodes air every Saturday and Sunday. Monday through Friday is the main creative team's shooting time. The benefit of this approach is that the plot can be adjusted at any time, otherwise Lin Yuan wouldn't have been able to take over the script creation and adaptation halfway through.
The downside, however, is that the filming schedule is relatively tight. Thankfully, the production level and technology of Blue Star far surpass that of Earth. Thus, the footage can be quickly edited once the actors are done filming. If there is no significant change in the plot later on, several episodes could be released all at once due to ample filming material.
These episodes can then be purchased for viewing on video websites, achieving a profit in advance. This strategy goes by the name of "First Look Excitement".
The next day was Sunday.
The new episodes of "Yang Xiaofan and Qin Tiange" were about to be broadcast, and the audience eagerly waited in front of their computers. By then, the drama's viewership and online views had increased dramatically. The public's anticipation for the drama had been roused to the fullest extent by Chu Kuang assuming the role of screenwriter and the appearance of the original character Jiang Yuyan!
At home.
Lin Yuan's mother and sisters, Lin Xuan and Lin Yao, were also sitting in front of the sofa waiting for today's broadcast. They were obviously captivated by Chu Kuang as well as the special plot of the two episodes from the previous night. All three were discussing how good Jiang Yuyan's acting was and how she seemed to be an astonishing newcomer, causing Lin Yuan to chuckle to himself.
Where are all these geniuses coming from?
The actress playing Jiang Yuyan was indeed quite beautiful, but as for her acting, it could only be regarded as fairly good. The actress was able to perform so brilliantly for two reasons. The first was the vast range in which her character could develop. The second reason was the aid of the Acting Potion.
After all, it was implausible for Lin Yuan to find a superb actress to play Jiang Yuyan on such short notice. Hence, he made subtle use of the System's aid and applied it to the actress, who probably had no idea why her acting skills had suddenly improved so significantly and made her portrayal of Jiang Yuyan so noteworthy.
"It's started!"
Mom suddenly said.
Following her words, the latest episode of "Yang Xiaofan and Qin Tiange" really started airing. It didn't disappoint the audiences as, yet again, the plot revolved around Jiang Yuyan!
…
People following the drama on TV were clearly fewer than those watching it online. The series had partnered with several major video websites, so the moment it got broadcasted on TV, all major online platforms also broadcasted it simultaneously. Netizens could adjust the progress of the TV drama at any time and discuss it while watching.
On the screen.
The plot of the latest episode had already begun. Jiang Yuyan killed her sister, through which she got the opportunity to enter the palace. However, before that, she met Yang Xiaofan and Qin Tiange and got involved in a martial conflict. Hence, she decided to help the two.
Undeniably.
Even though Jiang Yuyan had turned dark, she didn't seem to become a villain at odds with the protagonists. On the contrary, she fell in love with Qin Tiange and was willing to give him everything without any regrets. Upon learning that a universally recognized martial arts villain was opposing Qin Tiange, she directly collaborated with Yang Xiaofan and Qin Tiange.
Using her cunning plans, she helped the two main characters kill the highly skilled villain. Moreover, she even obtained a coveted secret manual from the villain!
Of course.

Jiang Yuyan hid the secret manual, she didn't tell Yang Xiaofan and Qin Tiange. As a result, Yang Xiaofan and Qin Tiange felt a sense of camaraderie with Jiang Yuyan. Still, both were put off by the ruthlessness shown by Jiang Yuyan in her schemes.
It was understandable.
The protagonists in martial arts novels were often somewhat saintly, disdaining to use tricky schemes. Jiang Yuyan, however, in order to assist them, resorted to some means despised by the righteous martial arts path.
...
At home.
Older sister Lin Xuan couldn't help laughing: "That evil villain is despicably cunning and has committed countless heinous crimes. The protagonists are simply too kind-hearted. They should treat such a person exactly like Jiang Yuyan did, using even more sinister means to confront him!"
"Fight fire with fire."
The younger sister seemed to have figured out the modus operandi of Jiang Yuyan's dark transformation. She didn't know if she would use extreme means to kill the villain if she were Jiang Yuyan. All she knew was she would never kill her sister if she were in Jiang Yuyan's position.
"It's heartbreaking."
Mom sighed.
This plot might seem like Jiang Yuyan has become friends with the two protagonists, but in essence, they're walking different paths. This means that people like Qin Tiange could never be attracted to people like Jiang Yuyan.
But it should be understood that Jiang Yuyan killed the evil villain, even using cunning means, not because she had a high sense of justice in martial arts, but simply to help the man she loved.
...
Online.
The netizens became more and more excited as they watched: "I really like characters like Jiang Yuyan. Her decisive and deadly approach really wins me over. I always thought that Yang Xiaofan and Qin Tiange were way too saintly. They are unwilling to kill the villain until the very end, it's suffocating!"
"Jiang Yuyan is awesome!"
"Although Yang Xiaofan and Qin Tiange don't understand you, I do. When dealing with such big villains, we can't talk about righteousness and morality to reform them. We have to kill them ruthlessly!"
"Yuyan radiates queen vibes!"
"Darkness is ten times stronger than innocence! Looking at the soft and weak girl, her hand was still trembling when she picked up the knife. But when it came time to do the deed, there was absolutely no mercy!"
