She was so ordinary until she was accepted into the Xuan Miao Sect, with some suspecting that Gu Wanpeng pulled strings for her behind the scenes.

During a beast-taming class, the master was teaching disciples how to summon spirit beasts.

Someone, trying to mock her, chuckled, "I've heard your father's golden spirit bird can attain the nascent soul stage. Like father, like daughter, right? I bet the spirit beast you summon will be equally impressive."

She started the summoning formation, but there was no movement for a long time.

Everyone laughed, "She can't even summon the lowest-level young beast." This was beyond mediocrity; it was downright useless.

Suddenly, the formation emitted a blinding light, and fog covered the ground. Everyone gasped in surprise.

She summoned something, not a bird or beast, but a living person.

This person was the unparalleled genius of Xuan Miao Sect.

Even she didn't expect it, and the summoned person looked equally bewildered.

In a sudden impulse, she used her ring finger's blood to mark the person's forehead and named her 'Nanzhu Jun'.

The master intervened, shouting, "Stop, she's your senior sister!"

This is an immersive fantasy tale where the female protagonist, through four instances of returning to the past, alters her own destiny and that of everyone around her.

A scheming female lead and an enigmatic male lead.

Part One:

Huang Rang finds herself trapped like a living corpse in a secret chamber.

She is eventually rescued by the esteemed Di Yiqiu of the Celestial Court.

Afterward, she washes away her troubles in a ritual bath, using five basins of water to cleanse her soul.

Part Two:

Di Yiqiu of the Celestial Court crafts an exquisitely beautiful “figurine” that appears remarkably feminine.

Surprisingly, this figure embodies the one who rejected Di YiQiu’s proposal and instead became the wife of the esteemed leader of the foremost Immortal Sect!

Could it be that Di Yiqiu of the Celestial Court, was so unable to overcome this obstacle that he became consumed by longing? Thus, in imitation of Mrs.Xie… created a counterfeit?!

Everyone: Astounded!

Part Three:

On a bustling street, Master of the Celestial Court abruptly halts his steps.

Instantly, everyone unsheathes their swords, ready to defend, only to witness him unexpectedly entering a rouge shop.

Rouge, cosmetics, and perfumes?!

Half an hour later, as they exit the rouge shop, carrying bottles and jars of starlit eyeshadow, golden rouge powder, peach blossom lip balm, peony flower jelly, and more, they are overcome by a sense of absurdity, pondering, “Who am I? Where am I?”

Part Four:

Huang Rang proceeds to Master Celestial Court’s chamber, taking a seat on his bed.

Master Celestial Court willingly squats down to remove her embroidered shoes. While unfastening the laces of her silk stockings, Huang Rang suddenly realizes this and strikes him in the chest with her foot.

Holding Huang Rang’s stockings, Master Celestial Court gazes at her face, then at her feet.

Engaging in such menial acts so naturally and effortlessly, as though he had performed them for her countless times before.

Could it be that he unknowingly assumes a submissive demeanor in her presence?

Astounding!!

Part Five:

It is the grand celebration of the Little Prince’s first month, attended by all the esteemed court officials.

Undeterred by formalities, Huang Rang sets her sights on indulging in the delectable treats before her.

As she takes a sip of tea, preparing to savor a pastry, someone nearby remarks, “The Eighty-Sixth Prince possesses an incredibly auspicious countenance, exuding irresistible charm.”

“Poof—” Huang Rang accidentally sprays the tea onto the ground.

…Never in her wildest dreams did she imagine that she would be someone who partakes in her own husband’s first month celebration. <<less

So she took him home, tended his wounds, and took good care of him. The wolf demon was untamable and often growled at her everyday, extremely vicious. Then she let him go.

Thereafter, at times when Yuan Xiang returned from outside, she would find some strange gifts by her door.

The demon king, who was hiding secretly, was tickled with hate: That woman made a binding contract with a demon cat! Besides that beautiful face, the cat is useless! She actually touched that fox’s tail. It can't be better compared to mine. My tail is the best! <<less

In the most quiet and unobtrusive manner possible. How? By accident.

Mo Qing, one of her lowest ranking lackeys at that point in time, had killed her after he retrieved the demon sword and unintentionally unleashed the sword’s demonic aura onto the heavily injured Lu Zhao Yao.

Her quiet and untimely death, coupled with her firm belief that Mo Qing had sneakily betrayed her by lying in the shadows and waiting to strike the final blow and reap all the rewards, nurtured a heavy grievance within her. Lu Zhao Yao refused to head to the underworld and reincarnate, hanging around in the human world in her spirit form.

Lady Luck, however, had not completely abandoned her.

One fine day, a female disciple of the Immortal Sect (Zhi Yan) fought with her childhood friend and banged her head onto Lu Zhao Yao’s grave. To Lu Zhao Yao’s utmost delight, she was able to possess Zhi Yan’s body for short periods of time after this.

Thus began her journey to avenge her very own death by destroying Mo Qing——and, in the process, resume her rightful place as the King over all demon sects! <<less

After hatching endless plots and suffering innumerable hardships, the demons of the Demonic Realm finally managed to resurrect the Ancient Demon King.... more>>

The demons of the Demonic Realm had hoped that the Ancient Demon King would not only lead them in waging a war against the Heavenly Realm and enable them to lord their superiority over the Immortals, he would also ultimately gain control over the entire realm.

Gradually, however, they discovered that their thoughts were very, very wrong.

Whilst it is true that this Ancient Demon King still retains his aura of superiority and possesses unlimited powers, he…

He seems to be a mental case…

It’s alright even if he changes orders and does things in an incomprehensible way.

But what’s with his habit of muttering under his breath, nagging and conversing with himself the entire day!

Small Orchid: He’s not ill, he’s just despicable (贱jian)…can’t stand to see (见jian) people live a good life.

Dong Fang: I am only unable to endure seeing you live a good life.

Small Orchid: …

*T/N: The Chinese pronunciation for the word “despicable” is the same as the word “see” – thus, the author is trying to show that Small Orchid, while trying to scold Dong Fang, is also careful not to incur his wrath, which is why she tried to imbue another meaning into her sentence after scolding him. <<less
