After transmigrating to the cultivation world, Li Ping’an realizes he hasn’t been given the right script.
His fellow disciple is the destined hero type, finding opportunities everywhere he goes but making enemies across the land. His senior sister is a reborn powerhouse, looking down on everyone as she spends her days plotting how to defy fate. Even the handyman guarding the mountain gate seems like some big shot who came down to experience ordinary life...
He can’t keep up with the grind, but he doesn’t dare go wild either. Li Ping’an touches his utterly “ordinary” spiritual root and decisively unveils his motto: “Heaven rewards diligence? No, heaven rewards caution!”
And so, a breath of fresh air (or maybe not) arrives in the cultivation world:
An expedition into a secret realm? No rush. I’ll let my senior brothers and sisters charge in first, then pick up the gear that flies off when they fight.
An inheritance from a mighty cultivator? No thanks. What if it’s some thousand-year-old scam, and I end up inheriting billions in debt? I’m out of here.
A fairy flirting with me? Suspicious! It’s definitely a honey trap! Watch me pretend to be a clueless straight guy and scare her off!
He thought he could keep laying low until the end of time, but somehow his “unshakably calm mindset” and “steady Dao heart” keep bringing him one stroke of luck after another. He’s even named one of the “Ten Models of Humility in the Cultivation World” by the Cultivation Daily!
Li Ping’an: “I’m not! I didn’t! Don’t make things up! I really am just an ordinary schemer!”
