Her spiritual root was stolen, leaving her the sect's good-for-nothing. Now her Senior Sister has kicked her off the Immortal-Fallen Cliff. As the good-for-nothing Yun Zhao plummets, she gets bound to the “Ancestor No. 1” System. She thinks she's about to reach the pinnacle of life, but the System opens with a brutal roast:
[I'm such a troublesome fellow!] it grumbles at its Host, who is about to become a meat pancake. [If you die, I'll have to find a new Host. What a hassle!]
From then on, the cultivation world's style takes a sudden turn. Others fly on swords, while she uses aerodynamics. Others make pills, while she crossbreeds spiritual plants. While everyone else works themselves to death, she relies on the System's sharp tongue to roast every immortal sect and become unbeatable.
Then one day, the System suddenly sounds an alarm: [Warning! That Immortal Alliance Dao Venerable, Xie Wuwang, is as cold as snow in public, but turns into a split-personality demon in private. Could he be your long-lost “poisonous” husband?]
Yun Zhao: “...Can I still return him?”
The System sneers: [Dream on. This System doesn't offer after-sales service. I recommend you two make trouble for each other and rid the world of both your nuisances.]
So when the battle between immortals and demons breaks out, Yun Zhao stands before the fallen Immortal Venerable, and the System murmurs:
[Dear Host, your ex-husband has gone dark. Will you choose “if you can't beat them, join them,” or “join them, then turn around and report them”?]
Yun Zhao: “...I'll choose to laugh first.”
This is a contest of acting between gods and demon lords, and the legend of a sharp-tongued System that carries the whole team to victory while making the Three Realms laugh themselves apart.
