Lin Xiaoxiao, an overworked office drone, and Su Mengmeng, a kindergarten teacher, accidentally enter a badly written cultivation novel as an aunt and niece whom everyone looks down on as good-for-nothings. Lin Xiaoxiao comes with the golden finger “the more she complains, the stronger she gets.” Complaining that a cultivation technique is too obscure unlocks a simplified version, while calling an enemy a loser can send powerful foes reeling. Su Mengmeng awakens a cute-style buff: she can soothe rampaging monsters, read memories with her mental power, and sense danger. The two form the “Complaining Squad,” along with the gluttonous auspicious beast Dahuang. They go from face-slapping their spoiled cousin in the Lin family estate, to making a comeback and winning the outer-sect championship at Lingyun Sect, then hunting for treasures in secret realms, exposing palace plots, and unmasking a traitor within the sect, before ultimately joining forces to fight off an invasion by the demon realm's armies. By using complaints to overcome every obstacle and relying on their deep friendship, they completely rewrite their good-for-nothing script and finally achieve “freedom of ability,” living the dream of taking it easy with their best friends in retirement.
Core themes: 1. Deep friendship between women: Highlights the pure bonds of women protecting and complementing one another, breaking away from the “women competing against women” trope and showing the power of cooperation;
2. Growth and turning the tables: Encourages breaking free of labels. Whether branded a good-for-nothing or burdened by other people's prejudice, anyone can realize their own worth through their unique strengths, such as the power of complaining or cute-style support;
3. Rejecting discrimination: Through Mo Chen's descent into evil after being discriminated against for his mixed-blood identity, and the dual protagonists' rejection of the idea that some spiritual roots are inherently superior, the story conveys the egalitarian belief that identity does not determine a person's worth; character determines success or failure;
4. A relaxed attitude toward life: Alongside the passionate comeback story, the novel embraces the laid-back spirit of “slacking off like a salted fish,” exploring the idea that the ultimate purpose of becoming stronger is to protect a peaceful life.

Although you can tell by looking at the word count that you are working very hard, can you please divide it into paragraphs?
The dense text is a bit unfriendly to the eyes
