I, Chen Yuanyuan, was reborn as a disposable stand-in in a tragic cultivation novel.

The original heroine was killed with a single sword strike for resisting her master.

I chose to lie flat, play the white moonlight stand-in dutifully, and quietly save up enough “Fuck You Money” to run away.

On the day the real white moonlight returned, I respectfully handed in my resignation.

But my master crushed the jade slip, his cold eyes locking onto me. “Did I give you permission to leave?”

Later, he personally cast me into the abyss of ten-thousand-year-old ice.

Everyone thought I was dead.

But they didn’t know that, beneath the abyss, I had awakened the bloodline of the primordial Ice Phoenix.

When I reforged my golden core atop the northern frontier and returned, treading on ice lotuses

my master, who once treated me like a blade of grass, blocked my way at Lingyun Hall, eyes reddened:

“Yuanyuan, come back...”

I formed a ten-thousand-foot ice spike at my fingertips and held it to his throat.

“Immortal, who are you?”
