Synopsis

The orphan Wen Zhuqing was raised by a Taoist temple from a young age. She had an extraordinary talent for the mystic arts, but was cursed with the Three Disadvantages and Five Deficiencies. Her deficiency was her life itself. The Taoist community tried every method they could to extend her life, but she still kicked the bucket at eighteen.

When she wakes again, she has transmigrated to ancient times and become a miserable, unloved country girl. She’s about to marry a paralyzed man who has a whole string of children.

Well, look at that, she’s become a mother overnight, and they’re all little brats.

Wen Zhuqing turns to walk away, but discovers she has only one year left to live. To survive, she has to accumulate merit to extend her life. Fine, she’ll start by saving this family.

Once she cultivates her Heavenly Eye, she realizes the whole family is surrounded by red light, wreathed in purple energy, or radiating blue energy. Every one of them is destined to become a big shot.

Her paralyzed husband is especially rich in merit. Wen Zhuqing swallows her pride and tries to ingratiate herself with him, hoping to borrow a little merit to prolong her life.

The fallen God of War, Liang Zhengyuan, turns her down coldly. “Don’t come near me!”

Several days later, with her lifespan extended to a hundred years through merit, Wen Zhuqing stops paying him any attention. Liang Zhengyuan, on the other hand, starts shamelessly pleading, “Zhuqing, could you please pay me a little attention?”

The female lead is quick-witted, even more so than a lawyer, possesses superb medical skills, and is even more adept at exorcising demons and monsters. She is fair and just in her dealings with people, neither a saint nor a domineering figure. The story is magical, interesting, and very enjoyable! 👍👍👍

It looks good! Sometimes it's incredibly powerful! Other times, it seems like it can't even kill a small chick. The ending was terrible!

I initially picked this book because I was in a reading slump, but after reading it, I found it quite good. As a seasoned bookworm, I can't stand rambling plots and eccentric characters. The storyline and character settings in this book are well-structured, and the author has carefully laid the groundwork.

Few fantasy cultivation novels feature a strong female protagonist; romantic relationships are minimal, with the female lead focusing solely on her cultivation. She is sharp-witted, unrestrained, clear about her grudges, and undeniably confident and powerful, making her deeply captivating. The author's writing is fluid, making the book utterly addictive and impossible to put down, requiring one to finish it in one sitting.

This is a truly exceptional book; it could be adapted into a TV series.

The first half of the story is captivating, highlighting good and evil, demonstrating principle, compassion, and a lack of overly sympathetic characters. The characters bravely step in to right wrongs, making it incredibly engaging. The ending feels rushed and somewhat weak, but I finished it from beginning to end and am still looking forward to a sequel. I didn't abandon the book halfway through, so I still highly recommend it.

Humorous and witty, with each plot twist leading to the next, it's a very enjoyable novel. The only downside is that the updates are too frequent; I can't stop reading!

This is a very good fantasy novel. The female protagonist acts with principles and is very righteous. She treats everyone with kindness, but not indiscriminately. I really like it and look forward to the next update.
