The female supporting character is innocent

Time travel

After dinner, Xue Qing sat down at her computer and, as usual, logged onto Jinjiang Literature City and opened her bookmarks. One story had been sitting in her bookmarks for five years—an ancient romance novel. Xue Qing felt a deep connection to it; one day, she had been idly searching for her name on Jinjiang Literature City and stumbled upon this story. Her name appeared in the list of supporting characters. Although she wasn't the main character, Xue Qing clicked on it with interest, and before she knew it, she was hooked.

Xue Qing started following the serialized novel. The author was very diligent, updating daily, and Xue Qing would rush to leave comments and praise as soon as possible. This continued for a year, a simple yet warm and peaceful life, much like a married couple's. One day, the author commented on the latest chapter: "I'm going to buy some steamed buns, I'll update the next chapter when I get back." Xue Qing was thrilled and kept refreshing the page. Four years passed like this; the author went to buy steamed buns and never returned.

Was she scammed? No, Xue Qing would never admit it. Maybe that author went to the corner store to buy steamed buns, only to find they were sold out, so she went to the department store. The manager said they hadn't received any more, so she went directly to the steamed bun factory. The factory manager told her they were short of pork filling and couldn't make steamed buns, so she went to the slaughterhouse. The slaughterhouse manager said the pigs were sick and couldn't be sold, so she went to the veterinary station. The veterinary station said they were short-staffed, so she went to veterinary school to study... Xue Qing made up all sorts of reasons to comfort herself. She firmly believed that as long as that author bought the steamed buns, she would definitely come back to fill the gap. Now four years have passed, and the author should have graduated from veterinary school by now.

Although she subconsciously knew she was doomed in this pit of despair, Xue Qing refused to give up and stubbornly kept refreshing her collection list. Suddenly, she saw three small red words "Updated" next to the story that had been abandoned for four years. She rubbed her eyes and looked again, and sure enough, it showed an update. Heaven rewards the diligent! The story was finally being updated!

Xue Qing trembled as she clicked the left mouse button to open the latest chapter of the article, but fainted from excessive excitement before the page even loaded.

When Xue Qing woke up again, she found herself lying in bed. Had a kind person brought her to the hospital? She sat up and saw several young women standing in front of her. What kind of hospital was this? It was crazy that even the nurses were cosplaying in ancient costumes.

"Uncle-Master is awake! Quickly inform the Sect Leader and Senior Brother Liuying!" The woman with her hair styled in a high bun, who was closest to Xue Qing, exclaimed in surprise.

A younger girl bent her knees and ran out, shouting as she ran, "Grandmaster Uncle is awake! Grandmaster Uncle is awake!"

Xue Qing rubbed her head, looking at them with a puzzled expression. Suddenly, a thought flashed through her mind, and she asked the woman with the high-waisted hair closest to her, "Is there a mirror?"

The woman with the high-hanging hair hurriedly brought over a carved bronze mirror. Xue Qing took the mirror, and in the mirror was an unfamiliar face. Although the face was bloodless, it was still clear that the person was a beauty. In short, it was definitely not the face Xue Qing remembered. Her first reaction was, "Have I transmigrated?" Her second reaction was, "Have I transmigrated!"

These days, time travel isn't scary; on the contrary, it's something everyone dreams of. Time-traveling women are all rich, powerful, and surrounded by handsome men. Xue Qing is already overjoyed, ready to use her Tang poems to bully the ancients. Calm down, calm down. First, she needs to figure out which dynasty this is. She'll deal with whatever comes her way. If she travels to the Han Dynasty, she'll use Tang poems; if she travels to the Tang Dynasty, she'll write Song lyrics; if she travels to the Song Dynasty, she'll sing Yuan opera; and if all else fails, if she travels to the Ming or Qing Dynasty, she'll recite *Dream of the Red Chamber* and bully Cao Xueqin. Looking at the people's clothes, there aren't any plastic flowers on their heads or half-bald men with braids, so this shouldn't be a Qing Dynasty time travel.

Before Xue Qing could finish thinking, a large group of women of various ages rushed in, instantly filling the room with the fragrance of perfume. Leading the group was a plump woman. Seeing Xue Qing standing on the floor admiring herself in the mirror, she excitedly grabbed her hand: "Qing'er, you're finally awake! You scared your senior sister so much!" The plump woman held Xue Qing's hand tightly with one hand, wiping away tears with the other: "The Lingyu Sect is only left with the two of us, my senior sister and I. If anything were to happen to you, what would I do?"

Lingyu Sect? The name sounded familiar. Xue Qing quickly used her mental search engine and suddenly remembered that it was the sect in the novel she had been following for four years. As mentioned before, the reason Xue Qing noticed that novel was because there was a supporting character with the same name as her. The "Xue Qing" in the novel happened to be a member of the Lingyu Sect. Could it be that she had transmigrated into the Xue Qing in the novel?

"Are you Fang Yun? The leader of the Lingyu Sect?" Xue Qing hurriedly asked the woman who kept saying she was her senior sister.

Fang Yun was startled by Xue Qing's excited appearance. He nodded and asked worriedly, "Junior Sister, what's wrong? Have you gone mad again?"

"Have I gone mad from practicing qi cultivation?" Xue Qing asked anxiously.

"When Liu Ying found you, you were already unconscious, your internal energy was disordered, and you were talking nonsense. You were showing signs of qi deviation. Fortunately, he used his true energy to protect your heart meridian in time, and you were able to save your life." Fang Yun paused here, and then said with difficulty, "I know you are proud and that losing your martial arts would make you wish you were dead, but you should also think about me. I'm getting old. Are you going to let me live?"

"My martial arts are ruined?" Xue Qing became even more uneasy.

"Your meridians are all severed, and you have no internal energy left. It's already a miracle that you survived. You..." Fang Yun's face showed extreme worry. In the original story, Xue Qing was a highly skilled and proud woman. She must be worried that Xue Qing might do something rash.

"Don't worry, senior sister, I won't do anything rash. It's just that I have a headache right now and want to be alone for a while." Xue Qing said to Fang Yun pitifully, rubbing her temples. She knew that Fang Yun in the original story was someone who loved his junior sister very much and would definitely not refuse her request.

Sure enough, although Fang Yun was worried, she still told the female disciples who were watching to leave. As she walked out, she reluctantly told Xue Qing to take good care of herself.

After seeing Fang Yun off, Xue Qing lay back on the bed and pulled the blanket over herself. This wasn't a tragedy, this… this was clearly a disaster! Who was Xue Qing in the original novel? The junior sister of the leader of the prestigious Lingyu Sect, a renowned sect in the martial arts world, a martial arts prodigy, beautiful and charming—a remarkable woman admired by all. Having transmigrated into such a body, possessing both inner and outer beauty, Xue Qing should be burning incense in gratitude, right? Wrong! She couldn't be happy at all. She clearly remembered Xue Qing's ending: betrayed by everyone, disgraced, tortured, and dying a gruesome death. Because this woman was no ordinary woman; she was brave; she was a supporting female character who dared to steal the heroine's man!

The novel's male protagonist is Yan Ming, the lord of the Underworld, who, in layman's terms, is a charming and arrogant villain. Xue Qing, though from a prestigious sect, is deeply in love with him and willingly becomes his pawn. Originally, both Xue Qing and Yan Ming were exceptional individuals, and their collaboration in scheming for power and discussing martial arts seemed like a perfect match. Unfortunately, Yan Ming fell for the female protagonist at first sight, becoming devoted to her and becoming her loyal, devoted lover, leaving Xue Qing heartbroken. And to make matters worse, Xue Qing in the novel is a pathetic character! She clings to Yan Ming relentlessly, frequently engaging in magical battles with the female protagonist, ultimately receiving the fate befitting a supporting female character.

Xue Qing reassured herself, telling herself not to be afraid. She explained that the tragic ending in the novel was because she always went against the female lead. The female lead had such a powerful aura that she could easily knock her head off and bleed. Now she knew better and knew that Yan Ming was nothing compared to her own life. She was going to activ
