   The first book features a female protagonist who transmigrates into a cultivation novel as cannon fodder, leaving her sect and distancing herself from the plot. However, those around her remain characters in the story. The author uses a humorous style to have the protagonist help those around her escape their tragic fates.

    This book is fantastic! The female lead's sharp tongue is truly impressive. Although her actions are quite unethical, it still works well within the fantasy genre. The novel has a unique flavor, portraying the female lead as a villain while the plot explores the darkness within the hearts of others. Some reviews suggest the ending felt rushed, and the supporting characters' fates weren't fully explained. The female lead truly lives up to her name; she's incredibly clever and quick-witted, her verbal sparring is unmatched, making people both angry and speechless, yet sometimes her arguments are surprisingly insightful and irrefutable. Even while committing crimes and robbing others, although her luck isn't always great, she always seems to have the best luck. As she grows and witnesses the various evil deeds and despicable attitudes of the supporting characters, her robberies pale in comparison. The further the story progresses, the more her virtues are elevated.
