Ye Luo, a street thug, transmigrates into the cultivation world and becomes a good-for-nothing youth abandoned by his sect.
Armed with a lifetime of streetwise survival skills, he uses unorthodox tricks like faking an accident to dodge attacks and bluffing his way past inner demons, rampaging through the rigidly hierarchical cultivation world. From the menial workers' quarters to the sect's highest ranks, from the mortal realm to the spirit realm, he uses street smarts to dismantle the rules of cultivation, face-slaps powerful foes, and wins the hearts of several beautiful women. He etches his shameless, devil-may-care spirit into his path of cultivation, ultimately making a comeback as a carefree legend who breaks free of the constraints of the Heavenly Dao.
There is no orderly cultivation here, only a thug's philosophy of survival: stay alive, and live freely.
