Xuan Jie's gaze suddenly turned dangerous and icy.
She stepped past Xiao Lu and yanked open the door.
Outside the door stood not only the impatient director's assistant, but also many supporting actors and Staff mbers eager to watch the show.
Xuan Jie's gaze swept coldly over them, her chin slightly raised, her face, perfect as a goddess, fully exposed to everyone's view.
Under everyone's disbelieving stares, she said coldly, "I'll say it one last ti: I don't need a Substitute, and I certainly won't let any random cats and dogs act for ."
The director's assistant stared in shock at her flawless left face, "Your face... has it recovered?"
"Impossible!"
A female voice suddenly rang out, "How could this be?"
Xuan Jie looked at the screaming woman and sneered, "I'm afraid I've disappointed Miss Yue. We won't be troubling you with today's scene!"
Yue Lingling's face instantly turned ashen, her eyes revealing a strong sense of resentnt and unwillingness.
"Xuan... Xuan Jie, have you really recovered? Is it a healing skill?" The director's assistant's attitude made a complete 180-degree turn. He looked at Xuan Jie with pleasant surprise, as if he had witnessed a miracle.
He hadn't originally intended to treat Xuan Jie harshly or humiliate her.
Compared to Yue Lingling, Xuan Jie was the 《spring flowers and autumn fruits》 chosen by the director after careful consideration.
Whether in terms of looks or acting, Xuan Jie was far superior to Yue Lingling.
But for the past few days, she had been filming with that terrifying face, and as the director's assistant, he not only had to oversee the set but also help review the footage every day.
The psychological pressure was truly imnse.
Lately, he had been having nightmares almost every ti he fell asleep, and he felt that if this continued, he would suffer a nervous breakdown.
So, it was inevitable that he developed a lot of resentnt towards the stubborn Xuan Jie.
"It's not a healing skill, it's a simulation and disguise skill."
Xuan Jie stepped back, exposing Mingxi and Erald Green in the lounge to the assistant and others. "This is Yan Luoxi, my Junior from Xianzong University. Her pet, Chengying Demon蛟, has mastered the Leaf Repair skill to the 'as-you-wish' proficiency. It just helped refine my appearance.
Yan Xue i (Yan Schoolmate) said Leaf Repair can last for eight hours!"
"Leaf Repair at 'as-you-wish' proficiency?! Such a young Beast Tars?!"
"Immortal University student?!"
"Eight hours! That long? Even makeup doll repairs can't stay stable for four hours, can they? And Xuan Jie's face looks like it's completely recovered, with no signs of bone calcification at all. Could it really be an 'as-you-wish' proficiency skill?"
The exclamations of the crowd rose and fell.
Xuan Jie smiled faintly, her tone unconsciously carrying a hint of pride, "Moreover, my Junior also knows what skill we were afflicted with."
"Really?"
The director's assistant looked at Mingxi with a surprised expression. Did this Xiao Guniang really have such great ability?
But how old was she?
"You all wait, I'm going to find the director."
The director's assistant ca and went in a hurry, and soon brought over the director and the male lead, who, although he had agreed to use a Substitute, had remained on set.
The director was a bearded man with a strong artistic flair, accompanied by a Cara Demon.
The latter is a Transcendent creature skilled in capturing shots, a standard pet for many directors.
Little Silver Flower on Mingxi's shoulder beca excited upon seeing the Cara Demon controlling the cara and wanted to fly over to have an in-depth discussion about filming techniques with it.
Then it rembered its older sister's warning from earlier.
Are snacks more important or filming techniques?
This was truly a difficult question for the flower.
While Little Silver Flower was struggling with its dilemma, Su Wei, the director of the 《spring flowers and autumn fruits》 crew, had already excitedly rushed to Mingxi's side.
"Xiao Guniang, my assistant told you know what skill Xuan Jie and the others were afflicted with? Is it true?"
Mingxi, "It is true.
They were afflicted with a Demon-type, or perhaps Ghost-type, Earth-tier skill called Hong Yan Ku Gu (Fading Beauty).
Oh, and this kind of skill cannot be learned by normal Transcendent creatures. Only Demon-type or Ghost-type Transcendent creatures that have previously suffered from a syndro called Myriad Bones Syndro have a chance to awaken it.
Myriad Bones Syndro is a cellular lesion caused by infection with the Flesh-Eating Yin Virus. The lesioned cells continuously devour healthy muscle and flesh tissue, eventually leaving the Transcendent creature with only a skeleton and internal organs, making it look like a corpse.
However, this disease is not fatal.
Once the lesioned cells have completely devoured the flesh tissue, any high-level healing skill can cure them.
This disease is relatively rare. The first recorded case was the Moon-Slaying Underworld Dragon from Yunhai Star. After it recovered, it awakened the Hong Yan Ku Gu (Fading Beauty) skill."
A group of people watched the young girl explain calmly.
So looked enlightened, so amazed, so admiring, so resentful, and so panicked and bewildered.
Mingxi silently observed the changes in these people and continued, "If you want to find the culprit, you can ask around in your circle if anyone's pet has suffered from Myriad Bones Syndro. The onset of this disease is very long, lasting at least two years.
Moreover, the process of flesh being devoured is extrely painful and requires a large supply of nutritional potions.
Unless the Beast Tars can confine it in the Pet Space for two years, without food or drink, leaving it to fend for itself, so problems will definitely be exposed.
Also, I heard from Senior Xuan that many people attended the banquet, but only the three of them were afflicted with Hong Yan Ku Gu (Fading Beauty). Director, don't you think this is too much of a coincidence?"
What Mingxi didn't say was that this disease was very likely intentionally infected by the Beast Tars, because the Flesh-Eating Yin Virus is not sothing that can be easily contracted.
Especially since this is Green Field Star.
And that virus only exists on Yunhai Star.
She was willing to say so much, not only out of so sympathy and admiration for Xuan Jie, but also because she disliked that Beast Tars from the bottom of her heart.
According to Guangguang, the suffering endured by a pet with Myriad Bones Syndro would definitely not be less than what Erald Green once experienced.
Such a Beast Tars who makes their pet endure boundless pain for their own selfish desires doesn't deserve to be human!
Mingxi's gaze swept coldly over a certain direction. Sure enough, it was the entertainnt industry. For fa and fortune, they really would do anything!
Su Wei was not stupid. Mingxi had explained it so clearly, practically telling him that the ◆ Nоvеlіgһt ◆ (Only on Nоvеlіgһt) culprit was right beside them, either a competitor of 《spring flowers and autumn fruits》 or soone who had a grudge against the three of them!
Moreover, as a director skilled at capturing emotions and expression changes, he had also noticed the Xiao Guniang's gaze just now.
"Xiao Guniang, I understand what you an.
However, things have indeed been a bit strange lately. I don't know if it's bad luck, but many film crews shooting at Yun Gong Film City recently have run into trouble.
Our crew only got Hong Yan Ku Gu (Fading Beauty), which is actually the least severe.
The crew next door is even worse off. I heard several actors were investigated, either for tax evasion or being addicted to all five poisons. And that crew filming 《Floating Fireflies Unaware of the Cold Moon》 at Yunhe Palace, they..."
