[Fantasy + wild imagination + good-for-nothing + laid-back + ensemble cast + doted on by everyone + lighthearted comedy]
Lin Shu, an overworked office worker, pushes herself so hard for her KPIs that she dies of exhaustion. In a flash, she transmigrates into a cultivation progression fantasy and becomes a cannon-fodder character who doesn’t survive three chapters.
To avoid being farmed for experience by the protagonist, she decisively defects from her original sect and joins the “Whatever Sect,” a sect so poor it has nothing but its name: Qiongshan Sect.
The sect’s master is a sleepyhead, the eldest senior brother is mute, the second senior sister’s cooking could poison people, and the third senior brother is so sick that he’s gasping for breath after every three steps.
Lin Shu: “...All right, I’ll do my best. I’ll carry you all!”
Using her knowledge of the plot, she starts snatching the original male lead’s opportunities with this group of “old, weak, sick, and disabled” companions.
“Master! Stop sleeping! Immortal grass is about to sprout in that corner of the back mountain!”
“Eldest Senior Brother! Stop chopping wood! The ancient sword manual in the cave to the east is about to be taken by someone else!”
But gradually, she realizes there’s something off about this sect.
