(Farming + no romance + raising kids + the heroine is the only cultivator + wish fulfillment)
Xie Yuyi, once a prodigy of the cultivation world, transmigrates into the body of a pitiful widow driven to her death by her awful in-laws. She doesn't argue or make a scene. With a flick of her fingers, she avenges the original owner, then takes her children to hide in the mountains.
While others suffer from hunger and cold, she uses magic to duplicate endless silver.
As snow falls and the north wind howls, she sets up a formation to keep their cave as warm as spring.
Tired of chores? She makes a couple of puppets to take care of everything.
She clears land in the back hills, grows crops, and raises chickens. Life is wonderful.
She thinks she can lie flat until the end of time...
Who could have guessed that her eldest son would go out one day and return having sworn brotherhood with the leader of a rebel army?
Her daughter saves someone and somehow ends up made a princess by the new emperor.
Her two little ones run wild out in the world, but come home eager to fight over who gets to look after her.
Xie Yuyi sighs: I wanted to live in seclusion, and you two are out conquering the world for me?
Then an enemy army invades, and a million iron cavalrymen trample the land. Before the assembled armies, she slowly draws her sword. Swordlight fills the sky, blotting out the sun.
"Sorry. I'm a cultivator. I don't have to reason with you."
