In the third year of Gu Fengluo's work receiving cultivators who descend to the mortal realm, she gets kicked down there herself after eating the wrong thing, and has to undergo trials alongside them.
At her mother's request, she also has no choice but to travel with Jiang Gui and the others, cultivating, fighting monsters, and making friends along the way.
Together, they cross the perilous Mistwood Forest...
Pass through Fusang Town, where the phoenix falls from the nine heavens...
Reach Lin Family Village, steeped in feudal ignorance...
And enter the barren, grassless Valley of Savage Demons...
They keep moving forward, only to discover that the world isn't as black and white as they imagined.

Weren't immortals supposed to get special privileges?
Why do I keep getting played?
The resourceful young lord of the city spends all day being chased and beaten by monsters; the champion swordsman at the Thousand Mountains tournament is a drunk; and the little genius of forging is a sweet dumpling with a black sesame filling.
Weren't people with wood spiritual roots supposed to be gentle and generous? Why is our wood-root healer such a firecracker?
Weren't you supposed to love me again, Mom? Why are you always scheming against me?
And why did the sweet, obedient kid I picked up turn into a noisy corgi?
