[Content warnings: This is not a typical transmigrate into a book story. It is similar to a character awakening and gaining a modern person's mindset. The heroine's strength fluctuates wildly: sometimes she's powerful, sometimes she just gives up. It contains original worldbuilding, and some parts may not make logical sense. The heroine doesn't have everything go her way and faces plenty of setbacks, but overall, the story is satisfying.]
The good news: Xu Muyuan is from a major sect.
The bad news: She's a cook at that major sect.
But who could have guessed that at the sect's disciple recruitment ceremony, Xu Muyuan would accidentally catch the eye of another sect? Their reason? She knows how to toss a wok, which gives her incredible arm strength and makes her a swordsmanship prodigy?!
After meeting her senior brothers, she was even more baffled. Were these guys even human?
The eldest senior brother's one true love was actually the second senior brother's sword? Whenever the eldest senior brother chased after the second senior brother to snatch his sword, Xu Muyuan would timidly say, "How about I cook you two some dishes?"
The second senior brother wanted to play hide-and-seek every day, dragging Xu Muyuan around to hide with him. Xu Muyuan said, "People need food as much as they need iron and steel. Senior brother, let me cook you a couple of dishes first."
The third senior brother liked to laugh maniacally for no reason. Xu Muyuan said, "Usually, two dishes are enough to deal with this sort of thing."
The fourth senior brother was devoted to gossip, and always had the latest rumors at his fingertips. Xu Muyuan said, "Gossip is too one-note. Come on, let me cook you a few dishes."
Other junior sisters were doted on by everyone. Xu Muyuan: "No need! I want to become a chef who grows with her skills!"
