The Heavenly Dao Is Unjust, So I Became the Founding Master of the Demonic Path

[A cultivation fantasy about women’s strength, independence, self-respect, self-love, and growth, told through an ensemble cast]

[Good-for-nothing’s rise to power + strong female lead + satisfying wish fulfillment + adored by all + scheming black lotus + comedy + vast worldbuilding + defying fate]

Jing Li transmigrates to the cultivation world. As a modern quasi-major general, shouldn’t dealing with this world’s nonsense be a piece of cake?

But she has five spiritual roots, all at level twenty, and can’t even practice Qi Refining! On top of that, her sect ostracizes her, villains abound, and schemes lurk around every corner.

Yet with her extraordinary talent for stirring up trouble and the opportunities fate has destined for her, she turns the cultivation world upside down, step by step!

When the sects surround her, she slashes a dragon’s soul with a single stroke!

When the Immortal Realm plots against her, she uses the five elements to slay the heavens!

Beasts from the Divine Realm, plants from the Immortal Realm, a Rakshasa’s mount, flowers from the Netherworld: she picks up every lucky opportunity along the way.

After taking her place among the gods, she watches the demons prostrate themselves before her. “Please, Great Ancestress, take charge!”

She gives a cold laugh. “As an old Chinese saying goes, ”

Seeing the demons gazing at her expectantly, she says, “What the hell does that have to do with me?”

She raises hell throughout the eight directions and six realms, living for no one and doing things for no one.

And yet an irritating man latches onto her. “My lady, the position of Lord of the Gods is pretty good.”

She gives him a disdainful glance and shakes her head. “The whole world as a betrothal gift? That trick is so old! I’m not interested!”

The man is so exasperated he scolds her. “What I mean is, you’ve made such a mess that no one can clean it up! As the wife of the Heavenly Dao, I’m not asking you to be gentle and virtuous. Just stop beating up everyone you meet!!! Play it safe, don’t go wild!!!!”

She looks at him dismissively. “No way! My fate is mine to command, not Heaven’s!”
