Fighting Against the Odds: I Am the Right Path

"Xiao Yan, what did you just say?"

The Little Medical Fairy at the side turned her head and looked at Xiao Yan in confusion. When Xiao Yan was asked this by the Little Medical Fairy, the black energy on his body quietly retracted, and the lifeless eyes also regained their spirit, and he looked at the Little Medical Fairy blankly.

"Eh? What did I just say?"

"It seems to say that you didn't lose or something like that."

The little fairy doctor pinched her chin lightly, her eyes full of uncertainty. After all, her attention was completely focused on the drama just now, and she didn't hear it clearly.

"I have no impression." Xiao Yan frowned slightly and asked in his heart, (Senior Yao, did you hear what I said just now?)

(I didn’t pay attention. I was just watching the show.)

Yao Chen responded softly, his brows tightly knitted as he stared at the image in front of him.

Originally, she was just watching this drama for fun. After all, no one else had used projection crystals to do such a thing before, so Xiao Mei could be considered the first of its kind.

I never expected that this drama is filled with a lot of information that ordinary people don't know, which is definitely not something that can be made up.

However, thinking of the name of the protagonist played by Han Feng, Yao Chen already had a guess in his mind.

Most likely, it’s that woman again.

When Xiao Yixian saw that Xiao Yan didn't remember what he had said, she didn't dwell on it any further. She looked at the darkened image with a little emotion.

"I've watched the drama Xiao Mei filmed before, and it's completely different from this one." Xiao Yixian said, frowning slightly, "It gives people a feeling... It's so depressing."

Xiao Ying is obviously the protagonist, but nothing she experienced from beginning to end is enviable. Even though she became the strongest person of the Xiao clan in the end, she was already alone. Even Xiao Ling, the only person who could have been her friend, was killed by her own hands at the last moment.

After hearing what Xiao Yixian said, Xiao Yan remained silent. His eyes flickered with light. In his mind, he kept recalling Xiao Ying's life experience in the drama. His heart was filled with ripples, and he even had some self-doubt.

Is the law of the jungle really wrong?

Nothing that Xiao Ying experiences in the play can be solved by reasoning. The only thing she can do is to keep getting stronger so that she can survive to the end.

The righteous path that he followed was completely useless to her and the entire Xiao clan. It was just a burden.

Xiao Yan's face was filled with gloom and he felt very depressed inside.

After what happened to the children in the Black Horn Region, Xiao Yan became even less confident about his past ideas after watching this drama.

Is your own righteous path correct?

At this time, the staff in the theater also began to guide the audience to leave, and Xiao Yixian also greeted Xiao Yan.

"Let's go too."

"Ah."

Then, Xiao Yixian seemingly casually took Xiao Yan's arm and looked at Xun'er.

"Sister Xun'er, it's time to go~"

"Ah huh."

Xun'er suddenly came back to her senses after being called by Little Medical Fairy. She completely ignored the fact that Little Medical Fairy was holding Xiao Yan's arm and nodded silently.

Looking at Xun'er's performance, Little Medical Fairy frowned in surprise.

She didn’t react at all when I hugged Xiao Yan. What’s wrong with her?

Then the three of them followed the crowd out of the theater. Outside the theater, Xun'er waved to Xiao Yan and smiled.

"Brother Xiao Yan, you guys go back first, I have something to do."

"Xun'er, are you okay?"

Xiao Yan also felt that something was wrong with Xun'er at this moment, and his eyes were full of worry. Xun'er smiled and waved her hand.

"Don't worry, I just suddenly remembered that I left a homework in the classroom. See you later, Brother Xiao Yan~"

After saying that, Xun'er turned and left, leaving Xiao Yan and Xiao Yixian standing there watching her receding back.

After getting away from Xiao Yan and Little Medical Fairy, the smile on Xun'er's face instantly collapsed. Her face became stern and she called out in a deep voice.

"Mr. Ling, you also saw the drama just now, right?"

"Yes, the old servant saw it clearly."

Although she did not show up, Ling Ying's voice slowly reached Xun'er's ears, with a hint of disbelief in her tone, as she was surprised that Xiao Mei would actually put on such a show.

"Do you have any impression of Xiao Wuyun in the play?"

"Miss, as far as I know, there was no such person in the Xiao clan a thousand years ago." Ling Ying paused and lowered his voice a bit, "But, I have heard of Hun Wuyun, who was the last clan leader of the Hun clan before Emperor Hun Tian. There are also the eight ancient clans and Dou Emperor bloodline that appeared in the drama, and the fact that there has not been a Dou Emperor in the world for a long time. I don't think this information is hearsay or fabricated."

Although this information is not considered confidential among the Eight Ancient Clans, basically anyone who has a little knowledge of the past among the Eight Ancient Clans can know it.

But outside the eight ancient tribes, not many people know this information. These are simply not things that ordinary people can know.

Similarly, Xiao Mei was born into the Xiao family, which had long been in decline, so she shouldn't have known about this.

The information revealed in the play, coupled with the two names Wuyun and Tiandi, cannot be explained by coincidence at all.

Xun'er could conclude that this was definitely not a script written by Xiao Mei.

Xun'er, who had already determined this in her heart, strode quickly towards Xiao Mei's studio.

She had to ask Xiao Mei face to face where the script came from.

In Xiao Mei's exclusive studio, Xiao Mei finally finished counting the number of tickets sold today and stretched comfortably.

"Although all the tickets for the inner and outer courtyards have been sold out, people will probably only watch it once."

Xiao Mei twirled the pen in her hand. Although this drama was the one she was most satisfied with since she started filming, she really didn't think that "The Biography of Xiao Ying" had a wider audience than the previous ones. Most people probably wouldn't want to watch it a second time after watching it once.

The reason is simple. The content of the play itself is too depressing, so depressing that it makes people feel quite uncomfortable. People come to watch a play to relax and have fun. How many people are willing to watch a tragedy?

Especially at the ending, although Xiao Ying stood at the position of the strongest person of the Xiao clan, it was estimated that few people in the audience could feel excited. Few people were willing to go through everything that Xiao Ying had to go through to stand in that position.

But no matter what others think, Xiao Mei herself is quite satisfied with this drama. To put it more extremely, she would even shoot it even if she had to pay for it, otherwise it would be a waste of such a good actor like Han Feng and such a good script like Xiao Tiandi.

"Ha~~~ It's getting late now. Let's clean up and get ready to rest. Filming during this period has been exhausting."

Xiao Mei rubbed her shoulders and stood up to tidy up the things on the table.

Just then, a voice suddenly sounded in the room.

"You are, Master Xiao Mei?"

"Um?!"

Xiao Mei was suddenly startled and turned her head abruptly, seeing a woman with black hair and red eyes who had appeared in the room at some point. Xiao Mei's heart skipped a beat and she glanced at the tightly closed door.

How did she get in?

But, Xiao Mei was Xiao Mei after all, and she quickly put this doubt behind her. She put one hand on her waist and looked at the woman with a slightly displeased expression.

"Who are you? Don't you know to knock before you come in?"

"Hehe, I'm really sorry. I was rude." The woman smiled slightly and bowed her hands to apologize. "My name is Yunying. I just watched the drama directed by Your Excellency Xiao Mei. I was very moved. I came here to see you in person."

"Hey~~~ You're my fan."

After hearing Yunying say this, Xiao Mei's unhappiness subsided a little.

Immediately, Xiao Mei's eyes suddenly lit up, and she looked Yunying up and down carefully, and couldn't help but admire her in her heart.

What a good image! I didn't feel anything when I first saw it, but after a closer look, this image is even better than that of Teacher Han Feng!

So much so that in Xiao Mei's opinion, the image of Yunying in front of her is more in line with Xiao Ying's role than Han Feng.

If it were before, Xiao Mei would definitely chase Yunying and ask her if she wanted to film.

However, having just finished filming a drama that made her quite satisfied, Xiao Mei no longer had that impulse.

Then, Xiao Mei raised her eyebrows slightly, with a hint of doubt in her eyes.

Is there such a person among the students in the Foreign Affairs College?

It would be fine if it was anyone else, but Yunying's image was so impressive that even if one had only seen her once, it would leave a deep impression on Xiao Mei. At least in Xiao Mei's memory, there was no such person in the outer courtyard.

Before Xiao Mei could ask, Yunying spoke first.

"The drama produced by Ms. Xiao Mei is unforgettable to us. Could you please give us a projection crystal containing the Biography of Xiao Ying? We are willing to pay a large sum of money to express our gratitude."

When Xiao Mei heard Yunying's words, her face immediately turned cold.

This kind of thing had happened before. Many opportunistic students wanted to buy the original projection crystal from her, and then secretly take it out to copy and engrave it. In the end, Xiao Mei scolded them out mercilessly.

However, the attitude of the person in front of her was not as annoying as the previous group of people, so Xiao Mei did not say anything excessive, but just waved her hand lightly.

"Please go back. This is not for sale. I won't sell it for any money."

Yunying raised her eyebrows slightly when she heard Xiao Mei's resolute attitude.

"You won't sell it for any amount of money?"

"Well, I won't sell it for any price." Xiao Mei affirmed decisively, "No matter if it's 100 million, 200 million, 300 million, or 1 billion, I won't sell it even if it's 10 billion."

"I am not interested in money. The reason I save so much money is just to prepare for the next movie. As long as the money is enough, it's fine. More money is meaningless to me. I will not give my work to others casually."

Xiao Mei spoke quite frankly, and Yunying could also hear that there was no falsehood in what Xiao Mei said. Even if she really took out 10 billion gold coins and placed them in front of her, she would not sell it.

"Mr. Xiao Mei is not greedy for money at all, which really touched us." Yun Ying first praised her, and then said sincerely: "But I really want the projection crystal for this play, can you make an exception?"

To be honest, if someone Yunying knew saw her haggling over the terms with a little fighting master just to buy a projection crystal, their eyes would probably pop out of their heads in fear, and they would certainly be full of admiration for Xiao Mei.

There are probably not many people in the entire Douqi Continent who can reject Yunying's sincere plea so decisively, right?

Unfortunately, Xiao Mei didn't know Yunying's identity and glared at Yunying impatiently.

"You're so annoying! I already told you I'm not selling it anymore!"

"Please understand, Your Excellency Xiao Mei." Yun Ying smiled slightly and said softly, "My family has many connections. Your Excellency Xiao Mei may as well propose a condition. If we cannot do it, we will leave immediately and never continue to pester you."

"whispering sound!"

Xiao Mei curled her lips and looked at Yunying who had a sincere expression in front of her.

(Look at how persistent she is. If I don’t put forward a condition, she will definitely not give up.)

Xiao Mei thought so in her heart. After all, Yunying didn't do anything. It was impossible for her to beat her up, right?

Xiao Mei flipped her hair irritably, and suddenly thought of something. A gleam of light flashed in her eyes, and she looked at Yunying and smiled.

"You just said that if you can't do what I ask, then you'll leave, right?"

"Yes, that is what we said."

Yunying nodded slightly, then Xiao Mei crossed her arms and smiled complacently.

"Okay, since you are so sincere, I will give you a chance."

"Appreciate further details."

Seeing Yunying respond, Xiao Mei's eyes flashed with a hint of teasing and she spoke.

"As long as you can produce a Heaven-level technique or fighting skill, I will be willing to exchange the original projection crystal of [Xiao Ying Biography] for you."

After saying that, Xiao Mei turned around to clean up the things on the table, without caring at all about Yunying's response.

The answer is undoubtedly out, and the reason is very simple, because it is simply impossible.

Although Xiao Mei was quite proud of the drama she filmed, she was not so arrogant as to think that her drama was worthy of a heavenly-level martial arts or fighting technique.

That's Heaven Grade, Heaven Grade! Not to mention the Jia Ma Empire, all the countries and forces in the entire Northwest Continent combined may not be able to collect one copy. Whenever a Heaven Grade technique or fighting skill is born, it will be fought for by countless people!

Even if you really have it, who would take it out to exchange for a projection crystal?

Unless that person is out of his mind!

No, it's not enough that water got in! Flour also got in, and it turned into a paste after shaking, so they could do such a stupid thing!

Obviously, Xiao Mei proposed this condition simply to persuade Yunying to back out.

You said that if the conditions cannot be met, you will not bother me anymore. I have indeed put forward the conditions now, but it is you who cannot meet them, so it is not my fault~

Xiao Mei was happily tidying up the things on the table, and had already begun to anticipate Yunying's sad farewell words.

At this time, Yunying's voice leisurely came into her ears.

"Okay, the deal is established."

"You can't produce it? Then don't blame me. Since you can't produce a heavenly-level technique or fighting skill, then... eh???"

Xiao Mei was talking to herself about the words she had already prepared, when she suddenly realized something was wrong. She turned her head abruptly and looked at Yunying, who was smiling slightly. There appeared an unnamed scroll in her hand.

"What are you"
