My name is Su Yun. I transmigrated to a world under invasion by countless races and even changed class to become a blacksmith. Reaching the pinnacle, marrying the school beauty, becoming a big shot admired by everyone: it all turned into nothing but flowers reflected in water and a moon mirrored in the lake, a fleeting dream, while I hammered away, eighty-eight times at a time.
True heartbreak never comes with shouting and screaming. I decided to lie flat and give up. Who knew I’d stumble upon a game called Raising an Empress Online?
After all, life was already bleak beyond measure. It’s only natural to get addicted to a cyber girlfriend, right?
But… wait? Multiplier rebates? What does that mea, mm?
I fed her ten gold coins, and she gave me thirty spirit stones back, triple the amount?
A fivefold return on common gear, in the form of a magic treasure?
Skill books returned as cultivation manuals???
Good grief! Isn’t this basically a free ride to the top?
Wait…
Isn’t the girl I’m raising online an empress? Why does she make smoke billow everywhere whenever she takes action?
What? She brought out the Banner of Ten Thousand Souls?
What? She gave me the Banner of Ten Thousand Souls… mm? She gave it to me???
Fine, I’ll stop pretending. So what if I’m a lifestyle-class professional?
Come on, you there. Put on your wristband. One VIP for the second floor of the Human Emperor Banner!

I am Lin Wanrou. My younger sister secretly joined forces with the elders to destroy my foundation and devour my cultivation, all for the position of Holy Maiden. They imprisoned me at the bottom of Ten Thousand Withered Cliffs, where I endured the agony of a thousand arrows piercing my heart and my flesh being flayed from my bones every day. I thought my life would remain bleak forever. Who could have imagined that a god from the heavens would come to my aid? He saved me from the depths of misery, protected me, and helped me rise to the pinnacle. How could I ever repay such a great kindness?
I only wonder… will my husband look down on me for being a demonic cultivator?
