Modern society's “elite,” Jiang Li, works herself to death from overtime. The moment she opens her eyes, she's in the cultivation world.
To stay alive, she joins the Yunzheng Sect.
She thought she could coast through life as a slacker, but the whole sect is full of hopeless cases, each one lazier than the last. One careless move and the sect could be wiped out.
After a quick divination, Jiang Li decides to act crazy and stir up trouble to save the sect.
Her master, Shen Yuebai, does whatever he pleases and is buried in debt. Apart from having a high cultivation level, he's useless in every way. What if his creditors come knocking at the sect's gates one day?
Jiang Li spends all day trading tricks with him and spreading half-true, half-crazy rumors to muddy the waters, scaring his creditors off so they won't dare cause trouble.
The head disciple under the sect leader is devoted to upholding the righteous path. If someone invokes the greater good to guilt-trip him, he'll gladly sacrifice his life?
Jiang Li spends her days picking apart his every word, arguing and needling him until he breaks the rules and buries himself in research on the Thirty-Six Stratagems.
The second senior brother under the Third Elder is a stickler for appearances. A few careless jibes from someone can rile him up enough to charge into a secret realm, never to return?
Jiang Li kneads his pride like dough, giving it a squeeze every now and then until it's flattened into a pancake he can take a bite out of without a second thought.
The third senior sister under the Fifth Elder is warmhearted and softhearted. Someone cries and plays the victim, and she overflows with sympathy, making her an easy pawn?
Jiang Li drags her around to gossip and cause a scene, teaching her to keep her eyes open and tell truth from lies. Kindness shouldn't be handed out carelessly.
The major immortal sects watch the Yunzheng Sect go completely off the rails and are at their wits' end:
This junior sister is harder to deal with than a demon!
Jiang Li spreads her hands and smiles. “I'll play the madwoman and save my whole sect!”
