Tan Zhuzhao transmigrates into the body of a little girl who was bullied mercilessly.
She is a bit-part character in a story about a Chosen One, a plain, clumsy, frail, low-ranking kitchen maid. Just to make the masters of the manor laugh, she is shoved into the icy river in winter, catches a high fever, and dies.
Tan Zhuzhao returns to life in the girl's body and unexpectedly binds herself to an Ascension System. Her beginner's gift pack contains a fragment of the Joyful Supreme Sect's cultivation manual, setting her on the path of cultivation.
But this manual... actually uses this sort of method to drain others' essence...
How can I use a frail body and an unremarkable face to win over all these powerful, beautiful men, one by one, and cultivate with me?

One day, an unknown kitchen maid suddenly catches someone's eye and stands out from the crowd.
She grows taller and stronger, gaining incredible strength, and even her face becomes rosy and pretty. The spoiled, arrogant young master starts obeying her every word.
The young master complains to her in bed about the manor's new guest elder, who is astonishingly powerful despite his youth. As Tan Zhuzhao wraps an arm around his smooth, delicate waist, she thinks of the person he mentioned.
The protagonist of the Chosen One story, still leveling up.
Tan Zhuzhao looks at the progress bar for her cultivation through draining others' essence, and her heart skips a beat.

Three hundred years later, the demonic enchantress "Fairy Zhuzhao," who revived the Joyful Supreme Sect, makes her stunning debut. She rebuilds the sect with her own hands, becoming a giant among the unorthodox sects and the foremost of the demonic cultivators.
During a battle that forces the righteous and demonic factions to join hands, she reunites with the greatest sword cultivator of the age after a long separation. Smiling sweetly before everyone, she says, "My dear husband, your sash has loosened, your waist is still so slender I can encircle it with one hand, and you look more haggard than ever. It truly pains your wife to see you like this."
The peerless genius of a sword cultivator has always been as cold as ice. His expression changes drastically, and he replies with bitterness and resentment:
"Ten years apart, and Tan Niang has been living it up and heartlessly casting me aside. We might as well be strangers."
1. GB. A frivolous peacock of a woman who lives it up. She has loved many and cultivated with many. Her true Dao companion is the original story's Chosen One protagonist, who turns into a resentful, devoted husband.
2. The female lead will have an animal form.
3. I'll think about it later. Just reserving a spot for now; I haven't figured out the rest.
Theme: Be self-reliant, strive to improve, and keep moving forward.
