Chapter 177

"'Stabbed'? Hmm, it only counts as half-stabbed; there's more ruthless stuff later."

The young girl remembered her childhood trauma.

There were still many 'stabs' later in *Chinese Paladin*, such as the death of A-Qi, the death of the Wine Sword Immortal, the death of Zhao Zhao Linger... which one wasn't torturous?

Although as a screenwriter + director, it wasn't impossible to change it.

But the reason a classic is a classic is because it's a tragedy.

It leaves a deep impression.

Besides, 'stabbing' makes you healthier; there is scientific research proving that shedding tears can release psychological and mental stress.

I am doing this for the health of the audience.

The young girl raised her eyebrows and smiled.

…….

In fact.

The audience still underestimated Lady Jiang Yu's ability to 'stab.'

When *Chinese Paladin* episode 28 ended, the ending song wasn't the usual *Finally Understand*, but was changed to *Always Very Quiet*.

The ending song screen was also changed to the scene of Lin Yueru and Li Li Xiaoyao together.

The audience listened to the song, looked at the screen, and... couldn't help but cry out loud again.

"Good guy, you are still sprinkling salt on the wound!" A viewer said so.

……

And on the internet.

It had already boiled over.

Only, this boiling was different from the past.

Ever since the character Lin Yueru went online, she had been a controversial character.

Many viewers liked her, feeling she was brave in love and hate, straightforward and kind, lively and cheerful.

But at the same time, many people hated her, feeling she was arrogant, unreasonable, and willful. Especially for interfering in the relationship between Li Li Xiaoyao and Zhao Zhao Linger, she was once scolded as a mistress.

However, whether you liked her or hated her...

When Lin Yueru chose to sacrifice herself for Li Li Xiaoyao and Zhao Zhao Linger and died in the Lock-Demon Tower, there was only heartache left in the audience's hearts.

And for the "culprit" who caused all this.

This pot must be carried by Lady Jiang Yu.

Rarely.

There were many scoldings of the twin beauties on the internet.

The trending topic hung high.

【Lady Jiang Yu has 'stabbed' like crazy, Lin Yueru died tragically in the Lock-Demon Tower!】

【The death of Lin Yueru!】

【Friendly reminder, viewers who haven't watched the latest updated plot, please prepare tissues!】

【She loved deeply, but she chose to let go—Lin Yueru.】

And under these trending topics, there were naturally countless comments.

"The Goddess of Rolling is too ruthless, actually writing Lin Yueru to death."

"It's not just ruthless, they are also insane, specifically writing a song for Lin Yueru."

"I cried like a dog."

"Next time, everyone should be more careful. These twins don't follow the basic rules when filming; I ask, is there any other director or screenwriter who dares to write the female lead number two to death? Only Lady Jiang Yu dares to do this."

"However, you still have to keep watching; Li Li Xiaoyao wants to collect the Five Spirit Orbs to save Zhao Zhao Linger and traveled back ten years ago, damn it, it makes me itchy again."

"It's good, it's just very torturous."

"……"

On the other side.

The treatment was different from Lady Jiang Yu's at this moment.

Zhu Zhu Xudan's Weibo was like another scene.

Before, she was scolded miserably.

And now, the whole internet was feeling sorry for her.

Even many viewers who had scolded her because of Lin Yueru took the initiative to apologize to her.

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have scolded you; Lin Yueru sacrificed for love, it's very great."

"Yueru is not a mistress; she just fell in love with a man who was destined to be unable to love her back; this is no one's fault, blame it on fate."

"Listened to *Always Very Quiet* and cried; my mind is full of Yueru."

"Heart aches for Yueru."

"……"

Under such popularity, Zhu Zhu Xudan benefited from the misfortune, her fan count increased rapidly, and her popularity and fame continued to rise.

Originally just a small artist in Jiaxing, now she had the popularity of a second-tier star, not much different from Sister Reba.

And this.

Was all because she played Lin Yueru in *Chinese Paladin*.

……

And in the music scene at this time.

Professionals started to feel depressed again.

The appearance of Lady Jiang Yu's new song meant that the music scene this month was basically hopeless.

At least.

There was no hope for the number one spot.

Just like last month.

In mid-February, they released the songs *Killing Wolf* and *Finally Understand*, and by the end of the month, these two songs still climbed to the first and second positions on the February music chart.

In terms of quality, these two songs couldn't compare to *As You Wish* or *Blue and White Porcelain*.

But the popularity of the drama was there.

The drama was popular, and the songs were popular too.

So much so that someone in the industry said: "Them topping the charts is as simple as drinking cold water."

In fact.

Calculate carefully.

They had topped the charts for three consecutive months, one of which was the 'Battle of the Gods' in December.

"Didn't they say they don't release songs when filming?"

"Is Lady Jiang Yu planning to top the charts all year this year? Want to get a twelve-consecutive championship?"

"Please, give us a chance."

"If this continues, they are going to become 'Song Queens'... calculate their number of monthly champions: last year's July, August, September, December, this year's January, February... eh!?"

"Holy crap!"

In a large group of music people in the industry, it suddenly became quiet.

Quiet enough to hear a needle drop!

Quiet as a grave!

The air suddenly froze.

The next second, everyone widened their eyes and jumped up in exclamation.

……

For Lady Jiang Yu, now, whether it's music people in the industry, or fans and netizens, by default, they basically treat them as 'Song Masters' or 'Heavenly Queens.'

They used many explosive classic songs to prove they had this strength.

Not worse than any Heavenly King or Heavenly Queen in the industry, and not worse than any Song Master.

Their Song Master + Heavenly Queen-level singing skills had become the 'Great Demon King' of the current music scene.
