After the empress transmigrated, she became the judge of the entertainment industry.

Chapter 297 War, Plague, Famine, Death

Ye Sanqing closed the fan and handed it to Sheng Hanyu, asking, "Do you understand?"

Sheng Hanyu nodded, "I understand."

While it's true that they don't have that kind of relationship, there's an inexplicable unspoken understanding between them that no one else can intrude upon.

Sheng Hanyu certainly understood why Ye Sanqing said he didn't have any real killing intent.

Perhaps he was just deep down afraid of something unexpected happening, which would trigger his psychological issues, so it's not surprising.

But he should trust Ye Sanqing and everyone in the crew.

It seems I still need to go back and analyze the character... This feeling of having hidden murderous intent but a gentle exterior, I really need to ask Dad for advice. Sheng Hanyu thought to herself, and continued to retreat to the side to observe.

He himself didn't notice, but the way people around him looked at him had changed.

Talented actors naturally have the least respect for those who get into productions through connections and money, and Sheng Hanyu is actually... easily misunderstood as belonging to this category.

After all, his movie hasn't been released yet, and he didn't have any previous works. Although the Demon Sect Master is a supporting character, he is the one who interacts with Ye Sanqing the most. It's hard not to suspect that he got into the production team because of his relationship with Ye Sanqing or Sheng Luoxin's comeback.

Moreover, he wasn't even formally trained in acting.

Although the public opinion remained relatively calm due to the Gong family's influence, there were still many voices of doubt in private.

However, Sheng Hanyu used the fan very smoothly today. If you think about your own practice, you can feel that Sheng Hanyu not only has talent but also hard work.

As for not being able to beat Ye Sanqing, that's not a problem either; who can beat her anyway...?

Now we come to the four leaders of the Demonic Sect, whose formal title should be the Four Tribulations Venerables: Chixiao of the War Tribulation, Qingzhang of the Plague Tribulation, Xuanjian of the Famine Tribulation, and Baimo of the Eternal Silence Tribulation.

Ye Sanqing didn't know at first, but later, while researching, she stumbled upon the story of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. Then she complained about Sword Five... "Doesn't that just represent war, plague, hunger, and death?"

Dao Wu also admitted that this was what he meant. The Four Calamities Venerables were a localized version of the Four Horsemen, because the imagery of the Doomsday Judgment was very much in line with the setting of the Demonic Cult's Flower Palace.

Furthermore, the Fan Hua Palace already possesses a blend of Western Region cultural elements, making it even more suitable.

So the Four Horsemen... no, the Four Venerables, the simplest of them all is Qing Zhang, because her role is mostly special effects. As the Venerable in charge of poisons, she usually carries a bronze cauldron with her.

All she has to do is make some coordinated movements.

Chi Xiao uses a sword, which isn't a big problem. This sword technique was specially designed to be different from the orthodox Tianjian Sect, incorporating some Western sword movements. Since it has a set routine, it's relatively easy to learn.

Xuan Jian's Soul-Snatching Shuttle is a type of hidden weapon, so it requires throwing force, but accuracy is not a major concern.

These three passed very quickly.

The most troublesome weapon is the long weapon, Bai Mo's Rebirth Lock.

It is a chain wrapped with talismans for rebirth, and its prototype is the soul-snatching chain of the Black and White Impermanence, so it has a hook at the top.

Its usage method is also different from the giant iron chain of the Canglang Alliance.

Ye Sanqing knew that these weapons were deliberately designed to correspond with those of prestigious sects, and that there was a meaning behind them. They were also relatively slender in shape and wrapped with strips of cloth, so she didn't find them too similar.

Ye Sanqing recalled the audition information for the actor playing Bai Mo. The actor's name was Ji Ran, and he seemed to be a supermodel who had switched careers. It's normal in the industry that models have to consider transitioning to other fields after reaching a certain age. He was probably around 28 years old, which was quite in line with the character of Bai Mo.

Ji Ran has a somewhat gloomy temperament, which is different from the eerie atmosphere of the Corpse Whisperer. Bai Mo's character is originally meant to "live towards death," so he also needs to have a sense of conviction.

I don't know if it's because of Ji Ran's previous experience, but he actually uses this long weapon quite skillfully, unlike when he was just practicing.

Wait a minute, is the Ji family also a martial arts family?

After watching the other person finish demonstrating, Ye Sanqing nodded to him and said, "You're fine too, just pay attention to the angle at which you release the hook."

Ji Ran looked at her, as if he had something to say.

He was the last person left, so Ye Sanqing gestured for the others to disperse and then asked him, "Is there anything I can help you with?"

"Junior Sister Ye, I heard that Brother Tang is filming a documentary. Could you consider filming our home?"

As soon as Ji Ran said this, Ye Sanqing knew that the other party also came from a prestigious family, but unfortunately she couldn't place the name in her mind.

Ji Ran knew his words were a bit abrupt, so he explained, "I am an unofficial disciple of the Yan family, from the Yan family of Huancheng."

He had overheard Tang Qiyuan and Qi Nanzhao's conversation and knew that Tang Qiyuan had this plan, so he wanted him to pat his own house, because the Yan family was currently in a very awkward situation...

The Yan family's main skill is lightness skill, and they are good at using light weapons. Of course, it is not as exaggerated as in martial arts dramas, but their agility and speed are higher than that of ordinary people.

Logically speaking, even if someone is shorter, they could still enter the gymnastics world. Unfortunately, their family has a long-standing tradition of tall stature, regardless of gender, and they are all tall and slender...

This kind of skill is usually associated with things like delivery, but nowadays, the situation for light-footed kung fu is not as good as using drones.

Ji Ran became a model because of his height advantage, and with good opportunities, plus his agile gait and unique personal style, he eventually reached the level of a supermodel.

His kung fu was only at a basic level, but that already put him far ahead of others. With the practice he'd had recently, he was able to perform quite well just now.

However, Ji Ran did not practice martial arts all the time. Because he had to diet a lot during his time as a model, he could not provide the calories needed for martial arts training. Therefore, he did not write that he came from the Yan family of Huancheng when registering his information.

It would be disgraceful to the family... Ji Ran's maternal grandmother's surname was Yan, so he went through several detours and never formally studied at the Yan family, which is why he was considered an unofficial disciple.

“I can’t make decisions about his affairs, but I can help you call him over to talk.”

Ye Sanqing understood what he meant and sent a message to Tang Qiyuan to come over.

Ji Ran could also directly approach Tang Qiyuan, but he inexplicably felt that it would be easier to communicate with him after demonstrating his skills in front of Ye Sanqing.

After all, you can't just go up to someone and ask them to film at their house without any basis...

Ye Sanqing, however, had a new idea.

Since so many martial arts families have this need, why doesn't she organize a federation of these families?

Isn't it good for everyone to learn from each other's strengths and make up for each other's weaknesses?

There were similar organizations before, but now it's basically just older people exchanging parenting experiences. Young people have to find their own way in modern society, and there's a generation gap, so it's not so easy to communicate.

For example, Lin Qianren's family strongly disapproved of her entering the entertainment industry.

That's a good idea. Let's just mention it to Tang Qiyuan and have him film it.

However, this will have to wait until filming is finished...

Ye Sanqing began to feel busy again.
