[A chef cultivator’s comeback × an aloof master who can’t resist her]
Nangong Yun transmigrates into the body of a cannon-fodder illegitimate daughter whose spirit root has been destroyed. Just as she’s about to meet her end, she awakens an ancestral pocket dimension: she can grow spirit herbs, raise artifact spirits (including the sharp-tongued Starry River Thousand Mechanisms Fan), and even awakens spirit roots of every element!
The day of the sect selection:
She cooks and concocts pills with an iron fan, then cries out on the Stairway of Reflection, “I cultivate only so I can eat well and live in comfort.”
As a result, Shen Cangming, the Venerable Sword of Cangming, takes her as his disciple on the spot: “This child... has an extraordinary talent for the culinary Dao.”
But no one knows that this aloof beauty sneaks out at night to pick up the pills she ruined, and jealously warns the artifact spirit, “Stay away from my disciple!”
When her all-element spirit roots are exposed and her identity as a goddess is revealed:
Powerful cultivators from Zhongzhou come after her? She smacks them in the face with her fan. “Little Star, how long should we roast this powerful cultivator?”
The destined Demon Lord is her master? She gives a cold laugh, fan in hand. “I sealed you once ten thousand years ago. I can do it again in this life!”
Yet he takes her hand and guides her sword into his heart:
“You sealed me twice. The first time was for all living beings...”
“This time, I’ll defy the heavenly Dao for you.”
