Rong Dai, a disciple of the Canglan Sect, has undergone six trials of love, and failed every one.
Everyone in the sect knows how deeply she loves her junior grand-uncle. She even gave up the chance to advance, all so she could spend day and night with him in the illusion.
Rong Dai, who transmigrated into a book, objects: You can't really blame the original owner. It's the sect elders who set bait for her. During the trial of love, she could run into her junior grand-uncle even when she went to the privy.
Her seventh trial of love is about to begin.
Her best friend cheers her on: "What's more important, cultivating immortality or a man?"
Rong Dai: "A man!"
Her best friend is so furious she can only sputter: "Have you lost your mind?!"
*
Her best friend hit the nail on the head. This time, Rong Dai plans to go crazy and die as soon as she gets in. Let's see how those shameless elders can set bait for her then!
As soon as she enters the illusion, Rong Dai climbs up onto the city wall.
A vast wind blows her skirt up around her. She closes her eyes and jumps down--
She lands on a birdman.
The birdman is smashed into a crack in the rocks, his face unrecognizable.
What can she do now?
Rong Dai sobs and makes the best of it! As long as it's not her junior grand-uncle, that's fine.
The birdman may be half-demon, but at least he's bursting with muscle and strength.
His looks aren't flashy, but he can show off his best features in the bedroom.
Yet once the trial of love is over, Rong Dai still fails to advance.
She finally sees the light: she might as well stop going through these trials.
From then on, Rong Dai sets out on a path of going mad and accumulating merit.
But whenever she passes by her junior grand-uncle's residence, she grits her teeth and curses: "Birdman!"
Junior grand-uncle: My junior disciple came back from her trial of love and doesn't love me anymore. What do I do?!

Oh, I forgot to mention: the Canglan Sect practices the Way of No Emotions. The sect's once-in-centuries cultivation genius, the junior grand-uncle who was just one step away from becoming an immortal, willingly fell into depravity because of a woman and ultimately became a demon.
A groveling, win-her-back romance.
Theme: Love yourself.
