[Mild mystery, told from the heroine’s and supporting heroine’s perspectives, with less romance and more plot.]
At eighteen, Mu Xi (Yun Ying) inexplicably transmigrates into the world of a cultivation novel before birth. She learns that she must help the male lead destroy every villain in this world before she can return to reality.
At first, all she wants is to cultivate in peace, use magic to execute and banish demons, and resolutely slay evil spirits, exterminate monsters, and wipe out demonic villains until she can complete her mission and return to reality. But why is everything turning out so differently from what she imagined?!
A fox demon that skins people and carves out their hearts, a mist-shrouded illusion, vengeful spirits that bewitch the mind, tree demons that drain people’s essence... Even ghosts have appeared. As the truth is gradually revealed, she seems to find herself unable to hurt those monsters...
Lately, all sorts of strange things have been happening.
Her longtime rival, a senior brother, has been going out of his way to act friendly toward her.
Eerie blue scales have suddenly appeared on her upright and righteous junior brother.
Her gentle, kind senior sister seems to have turned evil.
Even the male lead she is supposed to help, the Great Senior Brother of the heartless righteous path, has inexplicably begun showing tenderness toward the strange magistrate’s daughter who latched onto them back in Qingzhou.
Seriously, Great Senior Brother! She’s a villain!
