[A little silly + transmigration + awakening + ensemble cast + imaginative fantasy + two formidable leads working together + main-character-centric story + the temptation of going home]
Their graduation trip ends in a falling-out. The five rich kids go their separate ways, each speeding off in a luxury car and trading personal insults over the phone. At the exact same moment, all five cars transmigrate along five coastal roads in bizarre trajectories.
A month later, at the sect's menial labor quarters, Su Jianwei slips on a spirit fruit peel and takes a hard tumble, awakening her memories of modern life. Seeing her disheveled reflection in a water mirror, she thinks of those four hopeless classmates and crushes a spirit stone in her fist. “I have to get home!”
As she searches for a way back, familiar faces keep turning up:
The icy senior sister who kills with a single strike in the sect tournament, Shen Zhiyi, is the strongest fighter of them all.
The wealthy heiress Jiang Shuyue, who spends lavishly on Danxia Peak and beats her opponents into submission with spirit stones, is a true flower of the upper class.
The eccentric Gu Xingzhi, who drives his master mad with abstract theories and accidentally breaks seals, has a tongue as sharp as a knife.
And the cold, sharp-tongued workaholic senior brother who quietly cleans up her messes is none other than Xie Hui.
Su Jianwei rubs her hands together. “Haven't awakened yet? A physical shock, a little psychological torment... There's a method for everyone!”
When the five reunite, their eight hundred schemes start spinning at full speed. They put on a show of mutual disdain, but behind the scenes, they work themselves to the bone just to get home.
The sect tournament? It becomes a showcase for creative overwork and business ambushes.
An expedition into a secret realm? It turns into a live broadcast of a massive “sabotage your teammates” game.
Facing the Demon Lord? In the end, he sobs that they're even more outrageous than the demonic path.
#We said we'd each go our own way, but now we've transmigrated and have to stick together#
#The temptation of going home can't beat the joy of sabotaging your teammates#
#We only wanted to go home, but somehow became legends of the immortal realm#
#Five geniuses, five schemers, five thousand messes to clean up#
