Word has it that the Daoist sect's foremost sword cultivator, a woman, lived a life of spotless virtue, with just one blemish on her record.
She had a shameless master who coveted her fiance, envied her talent, and even betrayed her country to eliminate her.
Her master, Yao Ying, who died young: ...I didn't. I swear I didn't.
After being reborn, Yao Ying is ordered by the Heavenly Dao to help the sword cultivator attain sainthood. The method: trip her up, trip her up, and trip her up again.
To change her fate, Yao Ying has no choice but to obey.
But as she keeps setting traps, she realizes her sweet, innocent disciple is going further and further off-script.
The sweet little flower gets into a fight with her love rival, and Yao Ying tries to break it up.
The sweet little flower says in a syrupy voice, "Your disciple is the one who will inherit your teachings. Why are you turning against me and siding with an outsider? Master, you clearly still hold a grudge against me, sob sob."
Yao Ying: ???
Yao Ying plots to make the sweet little flower fall out with her fiance, so she can sever her romantic attachment and attain the Dao.
The sweet little flower points her sword at the fiance. "My master and Fellow Daoist Mu have already put the past behind them. There is no future between them! If you keep pursuing her, Fellow Daoist Mu, don't blame me for showing no mercy with my sword!"
Yao Ying: ?
The fiance: ???
When the demonic sect surrounds them, the sweet little flower snaps a Demon Lord's neck with a crisp twist, vicious and unrestrained, more villainous than any villain.
"This is what happens to anyone who dares disrespect my master."
Yao Ying: !!!
At the battle that tears master and disciple apart, the sweet little flower casually dispels Yao Ying's killing move. Stepping through billowing demonic energy, she approaches her one step at a time, dropping all pretense.
The beautiful young man bends down, his pale fingertips brushing her face.
"Master..." He tilts his head slightly, revealing two little tiger fangs. His smile is innocent and cruel. "Your disciple has waited so long for this moment."
"Since you want to kill me, Master, would it really be so bad if I ate you?"
Yao Ying: ...What do you think?!
And how the heck is this little maniac a guy?!
All she has behind her is a band of wounded, battered soldiers.
Yao Ying sighs and rolls up her sleeves.
Nothing for it. She'll just have to go all out and personally beat this little maniac to a pulp.

Reader advisories:
1. The male lead is a cross-dressing expert, a crazy, thrill-seeking villain who handles half the antagonistic plotlines in the story.
2. This is a silly comedy, meant to make you smile.
Theme: Only sincerity can win sincerity.
