The ninth-generation grandmaster of the Xuanmen failed to survive her tribulation, and a wisp of her soul took up residence in the body of the real heiress, who had been forced into a substitute marriage and died tragically.
When she woke, she was lying in a coffin, dressed in a bright red wedding gown, with a soul-binding rope tied around her wrists. Outside, eight pallbearers were about to bury her.
She burned the rope, kicked open the coffin, and headed down the mountain. There she met a man shrouded in deadly energy: a cursed loner destined to die before thirty. He was just what she needed to replenish her cultivation.
They signed a blood pact and marriage contract, each getting what they needed. She would extend his life, and he would supply her with his deadly energy.
Then she began setting up feng shui traps.
The first was at a Jiang family banquet: liars would see ghosts. The second was at an auction: the greedy would lose their fortunes. The third was at the Jiang family estate: traitors would have their legs broken.
She didn't kill people. She changed their fortunes, making villains bring about their own downfall within the rules.
The fake heiress, Jiang Mingyue, had a transmigrate-into-a-book plot in her hands and thought she was the chosen heroine. But then she saw the words in the story disappearing. The heroine was no longer called Jiang Li, and the book had been doomed from page one.
The harder she tried to change the plot, the deeper she fell into it. The more she struggled, the faster she lost her mind.
The male lead, Xie Jin, handed her a knife while undermining her at every turn:
"Wife, this setup is still missing a sacrifice. Jiang Mingyue seems perfect."
"No need. She'll walk right in on her own."
