After I Popped the Demon Lord, He Wouldn't Leave Me Alone

[Also titled I’m Really Just a Medicine Cultivator, strong female lead, a touch of ensemble cast, plot-focused, little romance, goofy cultivation story]

Blurb One: In one moment, Lu Banxia is pulling a late-night 996 shift in the modern world, working on a report. The next, she has become the sickly legitimate daughter of a minister who was framed by her stepmother and stepsister, then dumped in a mass grave to die?!

She turns the household-intrigue script on its head, sending her stepmother into exile three thousand li away and punishing her stepsister with house arrest and a forced apology.

Just as she shoulders a hoe and prepares to farm her way into retirement...

An invitation to join an immortal sect smacks her in the face! The cultivation-world version of 996... no, the cultivation world’s “all-subjects curriculum” in high school is now mandatory!

[Qi Refining = studying ten high school subjects at once] [Foundation Establishment = choosing a college major! Sword cultivator, spell cultivator, or medicine cultivator? Pick the wrong dead-end major and you’ll go bald all the same!]

Lu Banxia grabs an iron needle and rushes over.

“Yow!” One prick sends the cat into a furious fit, its icy blue eyes wide as saucers.

Pfft! One spray of hair-growth tonic, and the cat instantly transforms into a “black cotton candy puff with a disastrous hairstyle”!

Wu Jingxuan roars inwardly: “This woman is a devil!”

As she admires his comically distorted, furious little face, Lu Banxia rubs his fluffy fur and smiles, dimples faintly showing. “So...”
