Chapter 655: In the end, I still can’t escape my fate?

Translator: G.o.dBrandy Editor: Kurisu

Song Shuhang’s voice had hardly faded when he discovered that a pair of eyes was closely staring at him.

Those eyes belonged to Senior White!

Senior White was holding his chin and was lost in thoughts while looking at Shuhang.

I-it can’t be, right?

Venerable White isn’t really thinking of making me play Senior Brother Gao Sheng’s role, right? Song Shuhang had started to get uneasy.

No, I can’t let Venerable White get these strange thoughts!

Song Shuhang felt that whoever got to play Senior Brother Gao Sheng’s role and repeatedly challenged the main character—in this case, Venerable White—during the beginning of the plot, beating up and shaming him in various ways, wouldn’t end up too well after this whole matter was over.

In addition, he felt that someone with a gentle and kind-looking face like him wasn’t too suitable to play the role of a villain like Senior Brother Gao Sheng.

But how could he make Venerable White give up on this idea?

Right at the critical time, Song Shuhang had a stroke of genius and thought about the all-powerful Nine Provinces Number One Group.

When he was discussing this matter about Venerable White’s movie with the other seniors in the group, many of them expressed their interest in this matter, with the majority being ready to perform a role in the movie.

Such being the case, there was perhaps some senior in the Nine Provinces Number One Group that was interested in playing Senior Brother Gao Sheng’s role?

It was his best option to avoid this calamity.

Thereupon, Song Shuhang took the initiative and suggested, “Senior White, I’ve just got an idea. Since I brought up this matter in the Nine Provinces Number One Group, many seniors also know about it. Furthermore, several of them seemed interested in performing a role in the movie. Thereupon, isn’t it better if we send the details about Senior Brother Gao Sheng’s character in the group to see which of the seniors is interested in playing this role? At the appointed time, we can choose one of the candidates to play this role. How about it, Senior White?”

It was a flawless plan. After all, there were so many seniors in the Nine Provinces Number One Group, and amongst them, there would be surely one that was suitable for playing Senior Brother Gao Sheng’s role in Venerable White’s eyes!

Venerable White felt that Song Shuhang’s words were reasonable. Therefore, he nodded his head and said, “I see. The other fellow daoists in the group were also interested in the making of this movie? That’s great. Such being the case, let’s make a list of the characters that will appear during the initial phase of the story. Then, we can send the roles that aren’t taken already to the Nine Provinces Number One Group and see which fellow daoists are interested in playing them.”

When it came to acting skills—except for a few juniors—the members of the Nine Provinces Number One Group had a great experience and could perform very well with next to no effort.

After all, most of these cultivators had played a lot of different ‘roles’ during their long lives. Some of them had started getting training from their elders very early and reached their current rank in seniority.

Then, there was Immortal Master Copper Trigram, the true beast when it came to acting skills. If he wished to, he could perform all the roles by himself and shoot the movie alone!

He could continuously change his appearance and turn into all sorts of characters; it was definitely possible for him to shoot the movie alone after some editing and rearrangement of the plot. Besides, no one would dare to believe that the same person had played all the roles!

“Sure, Senior. As soon as Gao Moumou wakes up, I’ll tell him to work with Great Master Swallow Cloud to finish the script of the movie as soon as possible and make a list of the various roles, which we can then send to the Nine Provinces Number One Group,” Song Shuhang said and secretly rejoiced in his heart.

Yes! He had managed to escape this calamity successfully!

Venerable White smiled and nodded. Then, he sized up Song Shuhang and kept reading Gao Moumou’s story.

The initial part of the story Gao Moumou had written wasn’t long. As for the next part, he had obtained some source material from Daoist Priest Horizon but had yet to write down that part of the story.

After reading the first part of the story, Venerable White closed the script and muttered to himself, “I feel that the main character is somewhat pitiful.”

“It’s a way to emphasize even more the lonely nature of our hero. In addition, these tragic events can strengthen even further the heroic image of the main character, leaving a deeper impression in everyone’s mind. After that, the various tragedies will motivate the main character to revolt against the enemy oppressing them!” Song Shuhang explained. It was the same explanation that Gao Moumou had given him.

It didn’t matter if other people believed this explanation, because Song Shuhang did!

“So that’s how it was. Anyway, I feel that this role is rather interesting.” Venerable White gently put away the script of the movie. After that, he and Song Shuhang left Gao Moumou’s room.

Song Shuhang and Senior White were walking side by side.

“Right. Shuhang, you have already reached the Third Stage Realm now. In that case, let’s get in contact with Medicine Master if you have some free time and obtain the complete version of the ❮Thirty-Three Divine Beasts’ Technique❯ from that disciple of the ‘Thirty-Three Divine Beasts’ Sect’ that Fellow Daoist Phoenix Slayer captured back then,” Venerable White said.

Song Shuhang was just thinking of bringing up this matter related to his cultivation technique to Venerable White; he didn’t think that Venerable White would bring it up on his own initiative.

“Senior White, actually, I’ve already obtained the first four volumes of the ❮Thirty-Three Divine Beasts’ Technique❯,” Song Shuhang said with a smile as he took out that thick golden chain.

After getting his hands on the pa.s.sword of the golden chain, Song Shuhang obtained the ❮Whale Swallowing Technique❯—which allowed him to complete the ‘Thirty-Three Divine Beasts’ Innate True Qi’ inside his body—and the first four volumes of the ❮Thirty-Three Divine Beasts’ Technique❯.

Song Shuhang told Senior White about the first four volumes of the cultivation technique and gave him the golden chain and the pa.s.sword.

Venerable White used his consciousness to enter the s.p.a.ce within the golden chain—in which the cultivation technique was pa.s.sed down—coming in contact with the ❮Thirty-Three Divine Beasts’ Technique❯ and learning about the ❮Whale Swallowing Technique❯ and the first four volumes of the technique.
