The leading lady was caught in a dilemma, not daring to lay a hand on her, yet her daughter was killed and she didn't know who was the murderer. The mystery made her hate Jiang Yuyan to the bone, seeing Jiang Yuyan benefiting from her daughter's death.
Jiang Yuyan was no longer the weak little white flower of her early days. When the leading lady tried to punish her again, she boldly connected with the official sent from the palace to guide her and condemned the hostess's actions. After all, Jiang Yuyan was going into the palace and might even become an imperial consort one day!
If this was a drama centered on a female lead, Jiang Yuyan's action could be described as a real slap in the face, from being suppressed at the beginning to turning the table entirely on her own, it was truly delightful!
In the American series "The Walking Dead," there is a character known as Carol, a woman who, for her team, has done some less than honorable things and was even banished. However, the ultimate truth revealed that Carol's contributions to the team were irreplaceable, much like Jiang Yuyan saving the two main characters. Audiences never dislike such characters, even loving them to the brink!
"I love Jiang Yuyan!"
"Jiang Yuyan is mine!"
"All you rivals, draw your swords!"
"You guys are insane. Jiang Yuyan is dangerous. She's already obsessively in love with Qin Tiange. One guy just criticised Qin Tiange a few times, and Jiang Yuyan almost killed him. Who the hell could handle that?"
"Besides killing her sister, Jiang Yuyan has been killing only those who deserve to die. Qin Tiange can control her, and the fact that she cares about Yang Xiaofan's view shows how deeply she loves and respects them."
"Jiang Yuyan is the real leading lady!"
"Why do Qin Tiange and Yang Xiaofan like the lead actress so much? The second female lead would be better, she loves Yang Xiaofan wholeheartedly. Unfortunately, Yang Xiaofan is a bit dim and insists on competing with Qin Tiange for the lead actress. Jiang Yuyan is the real deal!"
If it can be said that the episode where Jiang Yuyan killed her sister did stir some controversy, the discussions around Jiang Yuyan in this episode was almost negligible. People genuinely liked this character, and even hoped that she would end up with Qin Tiange. Jiang Yuyan even gradually surpassed the main female characters in popularity!
This drama had massive viewership, and their affection for Jiang Yuyan catapulted her popularity, to the extent that the first instant the next episode aired, the bullets dedicated to professing love for Jiang Yuyan flooded the screen!
Among all these professions of love.
Jiang Yuyan, who had parted ways with the two leads, had completely gone off the rails. An old good guy who had a close relationship with Yang Xiaofan and Qin Tiange accidentally witnessed Jiang Yuyan absorbing the power of the villains. He recognized that Jiang Yuyan was practicing the terrifying Devil Technique that had been lost in the Martial World for many years, and decided to kill Jiang Yuyan to protect the people!
Upon seeing this, the audience's professions of love came to a halt. This old good guy was extremely popular. He had protected Yang Xiaofan from being bullied since childhood and raised him by his side. In the eyes of many viewers, he was like Yang Xiaofan's father. However, Jiang Yuyan didn't know about his relationship with Yang Xiaofan, and at this moment, Jiang Yuyan certainly wouldn't risk letting the news of her practicing the Devil Technique leak out…
At this point, Jiang Yuyan had become one of the most formidable fighters in the whole drama. She killed the kind old man who had a close relationship with the two leading men, and even absorbed his power. Usually, she only killed the villains, but at this moment, filled with fury and the fear of her practicing the Devil Technique being exposed, she killed him out of rage!
"Miss, you are possessed."
With his last breath, the old good guy sighed faintly. A character loved by countless people died at Jiang Yuyan's hand in this episode…
The audience was shocked!
