[Cyberpunk Cultivation + Lovecraftian Horror + 1v1 Romance at Various Stages] (The final male lead is the Patriarch! There will be other 1v1 romances in the extras.)
[Cool, unhinged girl x Fiery, sharp-tongued Patriarch]
Li Ya'e has a special ability. She can see things ordinary people cannot, things like tumors that cling to people's bodies. By slaying them, she ascended at a very young age.
As she ascended, Li Ya'e discovered she had an indestructible body. Forty-nine heavenly bolts of lightning struck her, dealing zero damage.
But after she arrived beyond this world, she learned that her tribulation lightning had gone astray and struck her own Patriarch instead.
Yes, she actually had an ancestor who had ascended, too.
Though she had been adopted and this Patriarch was not actually her ancestor, she believed in the saying, "Honor your elders as you would your own." So she decided to show him filial respect.
Li Ya'e: "Patriarch, how are you so broke that your pants even have a hole in them?"
Yu Xian flicked back her hair and laughed breezily. "That's my dharma body."
Only later did Li Ya'e learn that the Patriarch had meant fashion...
She thought she had connections now, but who would have expected her ancestor to be living such a miserable life?
He couldn't afford nutrient fluid or access to a brain-computer, and he had worn the same outfit for a thousand years.
Li Ya'e decided to bring her ancestor along and build a good life for them both in the Upper Realm.
But... where were the promised fine wines and luminous cups, with the pipa urging us on as we rode off to drink?
Why was everyone in the Upper Realm pixelated?
Yu Xian just laughed and said she couldn't get past the second level either.

On her first day in this cybernetic celestial realm, Li Ya'e discovered that everyone around her was a monster. She raised hell in the Heavenly Court.
By her hundredth day in this cybernetic celestial realm, people were saying that the returning immortal seemed a little... off in the head.
The haughty, most beautiful woman in the immortal realm hinted that she wanted Li Ya'e to be her cultivation partner. Li Ya'e threw up right there.
A top idol from the Lower District blushed and worked up the courage to confess. Li Ya'e said she refused to date outside her species.
A family head climbed into her bed in the dead of night, biting her lip as she pressed Li Ya'e's hand against her bare chest. Li Ya'e coolly backed away from the naked woman.
It seemed that whenever she saw beautiful women, she looked troubled, but when she saw rotting corpses, her eyes lit up...
