The Substitute Female Supporting Character Sees the Bullet Screen

Description

Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.

During her cultivation practice, Nie Yinzhi encountered a mishap and nearly fell into qi deviation. After emerging from seclusion, she discovered she could see floating subtitles above her head.

From these danmu (bullet screen comments), she learned that she was merely a substitute supporting character in a novel.

Everyone in her sect doted on and loved her only because her eyes resembled those of the beloved senior sister who had perished ten years ago.

And in three days, that blind senior sister would return to the sect—

Nie Yinzhi would have her core forcibly removed by her master, her eyes gouged out by her senior brother, and ultimately die alone.

*

Armed with spoilers from the danmu, Nie Yinzhi set up a forbidden array, sacrificing her soul to summon the novel’s antagonist – the great Demon Lord.

Covered in blood, amid everyone’s terrified gazes, she coldly smiled and said, “If that’s how it is, then none of you shall live!”

The Demon Lord appeared slowly in his dark robes, reaching out to wipe blood from the corner of her mouth: “You’re so young, why harbor such deep resentment? If there are any misunderstandings, we can sit down for tea and talk things through. Why resort to violence?”

Nie Yinzhi: “???”

Is this the ruthless, evil Demon Lord everyone spoke of?!

[The Demon Lord says no with his mouth but his actions prove otherwise. Don’t worry, it’s not frustrating, feel free to dive in.]

Gu Jiang: Today my wife is asking me to kill again

Nie Yinzhi: Today the Demon Lord is preaching virtue to me again

Cultivation World: Being persecuted again today

Laid-back retired veteran couch potato Demon Lord male lead VS grudge-holding can’t-take-any-grievance female lead

[[Warning: As you can tell from the synopsis, the female lead isn’t designed to be morally good! She has character flaws! She’s not a perfect victim! She won’t wait until they actually remove her golden core and gouge out her eyes before fighting back! Proceed with caution if this bothers you!] ]

Above average. A good read. I feel like some of the cultivation stuff flew over my head because of the style of cultivation they chose. Maybe it was cultural or religious aspects that flew over my head and I found it a bit boring when it was leaning on the cultivation aspects rather than the relationship between the two leads but it’s the only reason for me knocking down a star.

I wouldn’t necessarily call either of them evil. When it comes down to it, they’re the type to only take... more>> action on direct threats. Even when MC wants to kill the sect it’s only when she believes they will follow the novel path of crippling her cultivation and blinding her. Because later on she has many chances to take advantage of ML and use him to kill the other characters but rarely does so. ML is honestly a very lazy villain even when suffering under various curses. Their relationship is very rich, sometimes humorous and so loving I feeling in a single dog stuffed with dog food. The author has a way of writing romance that is both flowery and titillating and yet not cheesy. They’re very creative especially with the extras doing various AU worlds for the main characters.

The bullet comments weren’t as prevalent as I assumed they’d be. Yes they were there giving MC spoilers and helping her with her decisions but they didn’t take over the story. I did laugh at some commentary since it felt true to what you would see irl from gatekeeping OG novel fans to the shippers to the trolls.

the OG main characters didn’t last as long as I expected. Usually they end up being the villains in the new story or nuances but

Spoiler

OG ML and 2nd ML died pretty early on. They were so short lived I felt let down by their built up lol OG FL looked like she was gonna take the dark path but brother A was swift with getting vengeance for his beloved. I’m not sure I would have liked it though because OG FL seemed to be trying to replicate the version of MC she created in her mind to justify her wicked actions but as they say an imitation is rarely as good as the original. She was too steeped in hypocrisy to like her, if she just admitted her hypocrisy I would have liked her more.

I think my favorite characters outside the main leads were Little Bai and brother An. It’s a shame they got a bad end, I wish the extra AUs had featured a one off line of them being together after the tragedy of the original life. I worry Brother An trapped himself in a dream to relive a moment with sis Bai.

Not great but not bad. A bit above average. Personally, I wish it had more depth. After they recognized their feelings for each other, I feel like the plot was just stuck there somewhere. Before that was amazing. Nonchalant MC who knows her weakness with OP ML but has his own flaws. ML's a villain but not a typical one. Both don't gaf, and interactions between them were comedic. It's enjoyable if you like fluffy ones. Personally, I like darker tones.

I really like this.. out of my expectation..I think its gonna be a cold revenge story or too cheesy and mainstream story but it's really not

The story main focus is in relationship between MC and ML but the plot still neat and well written.. also funny..

Their story so sweet sweet sweet but not too cheesy at all.. but so much consideration and respect between each other.. MC also smart and quick witted.. ML looks lazy but he has his reason, and also sooo kind hearted..

And of course the beginning so... more>> out of the box hahaha...I really surprised the beginning like end of other novel with this kind of story, ,

Spoiler

OG ML die just within first 8 chapter

[collapse]

and I'm curious how author will continue.. will it become absurd or not, , but not.. it still has clear and neat plot..

The ending quite satisfying and not rush.. so happy can found this kind of novel <<less

This is a nice adventure action pact story with romance. ML is very OP, however the focus is more on attacking the plot than showing how OP they are.

The romance is a bit slow with some "bribery" and "exchange" mix. But still very nice to read.

I loved this novel. Both the MC and the ML were a breath of fresh air for me. The MC is far from perfect, she's willful, vain and kind of selfish. However, her selfishness isn't at the expense of others. She was a flawed and well-rounded character, and while she could have been annoying, she was executed well. For me she never crossed into annoying or frustrating category, she was quite likeable.

The ML isn't as interesting, but honestly having an ML that isn't the cold, domineering type is already a... more>> plus. Also, I don't think I've seen similar ML's to him, I would say he's quite unique.

Their relationship was nice. There wasn't much drama or angst, but I wouldn't call it boring. Generally, they cared for each other and communicated openly. There was never any misunderstandings, and their interactions were fun. The plot was more in the background, and their romance/relationship development was in the forefront of the story, yet I enjoyed it. The story was also interesting, but it was very much secondary. It had a good pacing, but most of the chapters are taken by the MC and ML interacting

If you like stories that focus on relationship building, with an interesting story that's not much of the focus, yet still delivers, and an MC that's a bit spoilt and selfish I can recommend it! <<less

The reviews are good, but I personally can’t take such an MC. She bears grudges for intentions (things that didn’t even happen! Things that she could’ve prevented or avoided in the first place!), disregards everyone but herself, and takes pleasure in meaningless suffering of side characters. She’s also spoiled and unreasonable (those two are minor things I could’ve overlooked, if not for everything else).

The writing style is also confusing — all kinds of locations, characters and parts of magic system of the setting suddenly appear with little to no explanation.... more>> By chapter seven some major things happened through MC’s efforts, but it was so swift I didn’t like it at all. There’s no catharsis to deaths, no satisfaction seeing the MC stand up for herself, it’s like watching a drama on 2.5 speed — maybe there was some substance, but I didn’t get any. I’m not even sure which one of those names that author threw out belongs to ML, and no impression of him, though MC and ML have already met and supposedly have a connection already. Very vexing. Completely confusing. Do not recommend. <<less

This is one of the best novels I have ever read, there are many plot twists, the characters are interesting, they complement each other beautifully, the sleepy ML is everything 😍. And there are some funny extra chapters. Super recommended 100/10
