Four overworked corporate drones are struck by lightning and sent to the cultivation world, where they are each bound to a “Villain Comeback System.”
Sword cultivator Lu Zhao transmigrates into a farming novel. System directive: “Kill every chicken in the village within three days!”
Divine physician Su Miaomiao lands in a palace intrigue plot: “Poison the emperor, and you’ll become empress dowager!”
General Shen Zhan is reborn into a live-in son-in-law story: “Make your in-laws go bankrupt and beg for mercy!”
Chef Chu He tumbles into a martial arts world: “Challenge the martial arts alliance leader and make a name for yourself!”
The System malfunctions, and the four get each other’s scripts.
Lu Zhao chases chickens with his sword: “Brother Chicken, lend me your head!”
Su Miaomiao faces the emperor with a silver needle: “Your Majesty, this needle will beautify you and preserve your youth...”
Shen Zhan rubs his hands as he looks at his father-in-law: “Father, about the family business... Can I run it into the ground?”
Chu He blocks the alliance leader with a cleaver: “Leader, try my new dish... braised alliance leader?”
When the four reunite at the scene of the main System’s collapse
Lu Zhao sneers: “Who told me to kill chickens?”
Su Miaomiao smiles: “Who told me to poison the emperor?”
Shen Zhan grins sheepishly: “Who told me to squander the family fortune?”
Chu He raises his cleaver: “Who told me to chop up the alliance leader?”
The main System trembles: “A malfunction... purely a technical malfunction!”
