As a child, Li Yin's goal was to conquer the entire planet Dongxi with her child husband and her underlings. Later, her goal became to be the greatest space pirate in the universe and shake off that damned young major who refused to leave her alone.
She achieved half of each goal. She became the little tyrant of planet Dongxi, but her child husband ran away. She became the greatest space pirate in the universe, but still couldn't do anything to the youngest major in the Alliance military.
Instead, the two of them were tricked into the barren wilderness of ancient times, along with her unlucky cousin Ye Sheng, who got caught up in the mess.
Li Yin glanced at An Muyao, the ungrateful former child husband who had become a major in the Alliance, the one who had put her in this situation, and couldn't help grinding her teeth.

Li Yin, interstellar pirate and gang leader, lives by this principle: You need a goal in life, even in the worst of circumstances.
"Since the stars and the sea are out of reach, let's start by... conquering Planet Yuan."
And so another story began.

Why vie for supremacy when you can cultivate immortality? Why fall in love when you can do research? To hell with beauty and empire, all I want is internet and electricity!
...At first, I thought my life was a story about interstellar mecha. Later, I figured it must be an ancient infrastructure-building story. Then I thought it was about conquering the world. Only in the end did I realize it was actually a fantasy cultivation story.
By the way, I want to tell my cousin and her husband: show off your love, and you'll die young.

P.S.
1. 20% survival in primitive society + 20% adventures in a fantasy world + 20% fighting feudal superstition + 20% conquering the world + 20% scientific infrastructure-building. I don't even know what to call this crazy mishmash. The style is an odd mix, and I have no idea how it'll turn out.
2. The story of the Three Lords from You Spoiled the Plot follows a pair of terrible lovers as they wreak havoc in ancient times.
