[Blurb]

In the interstellar age, the environment is in decline and ingredients are scarce. Jiang Fei, the universe's most famous “Little Culinary Master” food blogger, has to cross the stars and travel thousands of miles just to make the simplest tomato and egg stir-fry.

One day, she falls into a wormhole and wakes up in the 1990s as a poor, pitiful girl. Jiang Fei can't help but rejoice.

This era is full of natural ingredients! She can make whatever she wants!

Faced with having dropped out of school and being pressured into marriage by her adoptive parents, Jiang Fei rolls up her sleeves and decisively sets up a food stall.

One wok spatula, and her life turns over a new leaf.

At first, passersby barely glanced at the unremarkable little food stall, looking down on its owner.

“Anyone can fry potatoes. And she thinks this is worth selling?”

“Too many shops already sell tea eggs. If you make them too, you won't even earn enough to pay for coal!”

But after just one bite, anyone who tried the food was instantly hooked. By the time they came to their senses, their wallets were already in hand!

“I've been dreaming about almond tofu and tossing and turning over it. How can it be this delicious?”

“After eating Jiang Fei's brown sugar cakes, my mouth watered for a whole month!”

“This is banquet-for-the-nation-level cooking! Can I really get to eat this just by paying for it?!”

To reclaim her title as Culinary God as soon as possible, Jiang Fei works hard at cooking, expands her business, and takes over commercial premises... Her little stall becomes a nationwide sensation. Big shots from every walk of life flock to it, lingering so long that they beg on their knees for a meal.

The nation's richest man: “I went bankrupt once. Miss Jiang's spicy chicken gave me the passion to start a business again!”

Famous director: “Jiang Fei's sticky rice is so delicious! It tastes like my childhood, and it instantly inspired me when I was at my lowest!”

Top science prize prodigy: “The moment I took my first bite of lotus seed paste buns, I had already decided what to name my child.”

Jiang Fei: ...You're the only one acting weird here?!

[New Story Blurb]

Bai Muxing transmigrates to a xianxia world and becomes the daughter of a sect leader. Though a chronic illness prevents her from cultivating, she's doted on by her parents and older brother, and cared for by disciples and servants. She's beautiful and rich, so she can lie flat and enjoy life!

She's happy for twenty years, then suddenly discovers that this world is actually a full-dive game.

On the first day of launch, a million players drop into the world, the Demon Sect returns, and soon her family is about to be wiped out as part of the main storyline!

Bai Muxing, a good-for-nothing who can only make handicrafts: ...

Recruiting labor online, uh, no, urgently beseeching heroes to defend the sect!

You ask what the quest rewards are? How about a limited-edition pair of handmade straw sandals? Or a Bai Lu Sect badge ita bag?

“Immortal Path Like Heaven” is a sensation, arguably the most talked-about game in the full-dive genre. The Bai Lu Sect, part of the righteous faction, is famous for its artifact crafting, but it has a hidden NPC who specializes in making useless equipment.

“Hidden quest: bribe Bai Muxing with a hundred thousand spirit stones when you ask to become her disciple, and she'll give you a headscarf she sewed herself. It's so cool! I don't tell just anyone!”

“I was a Demon Sect disciple, but I casually helped repair the Bai Lu Sect's protective array. Saintess Bai Muxing made me a purse with my avatar on it! She has feelings for me, so I've switched sides!”

“The cat-head charm hanging from the number-one swordsman in the whole game is way too cute! I heard it's a limited edition reward for helping the Bai Lu Sect repel the demonic tide? Damn it, I'm going to sell myself into labor right now!”

Several versions later, Bai Muxing has warped the main storyline and become ruler of the world. With a wicked grin, she watches a huge crowd of max-level players under her command fight over a single straw-woven ring for three PVP seasons.

“Humanity's inexplicable urge to compete really is so darn useful!”
