    [Modern Supernatural + Mysticism + Horror + Strong Female Lead (Not a Good Person)] Qin Zheng wakes up to find the world vastly different. The plague demon descended from the mountain, wreaking havoc across the Central Plains, causing immense suffering. She was ordered to exterminate the demon, battling it for two days. Although she ultimately killed it, her own body was burned by its true fire. Lying in a mass grave for five hundred years, her body had turned to bones, but fortunately, her magical powers remained. The first thing she did upon emerging from her coffin was to find a new face to wear. The face belonged to a pitiful person, and to integrate into society, she assumed that person's identity. This sets off a series of acts of revenge and humiliation. A mindless, feel-good story; the female lead isn't a morally upright person and has a bit of cunning.
