The story takes place in a traditional wuxia world. Tao Chu was killed in her previous life by her younger brother, who had transmigrated from another world, and by their parents. Reborn, she resolves to take revenge. However, her brother uses the advantages of his transmigrator System to rise rapidly through the jianghu, enlisting their parents to help him and doing everything he can to obstruct Tao Chu's revenge. Although Tao Chu retains her memories from her previous life, she is weak at first, and her feelings for her family become a soft spot that clouds her judgment and actions. Meanwhile, as Tao Chu grows stronger, her brother's transmigrator System evolves too, leaving her with an ever-narrowing window of opportunity for revenge.
In the course of her revenge, Tao Chu draws on the power of "wuxia + System" and faces a difficult choice: resort to any means necessary to grow stronger quickly, or hold fast to the traditional principles of wuxia cultivation. She is constantly misunderstood by others, while painful memories of her family's betrayal in her previous life continue to torment her. When she finally succeeds in taking revenge, she discovers an even greater conspiracy lurking behind it, leaving her victory tinged with bitterness.
