Yu Xianxian transmigrated into a book, and became a villainess with a tragic ending.
Yu Xianxian is an immortal's second-generation daughter, but both her parents are villains.
Yu Xianxian is a cultivation genius, but her aptitude was "stolen" from the original leads.
Sounds serious, right? Yu Xianxian isn't worried at all. Having studied abroad in the modern world, she knows there's a standard set of strategies for situations like this, passed down by those who transmigrated into books before her.
Method One: Find the protagonists when they're young, win them over, and become their guiding light.
Yu Xianxian conceals her identity and goes down the mountain, lavishing them with hugs and kisses and carrying them around. Only to discover that the male and female leads have already turned evil, with hearts as hard as rocks in a latrine.
Method Two: Once they depend on you, abandon them without mercy so they'll realize how important you are.
Yu Xianxian sees that the leads eat her food and drink her water, and probably wouldn't survive without her. She steels herself, leaves them behind, and runs away. The next day, the two leads show up at her door, threaten her, then carry on eating her food and drinking her water.
Method Three: If nothing else works, use the thirty-sixth stratagem: run away. Distance makes the heart grow fonder.
Yu Xianxian still thinks this one sounds most reliable, so she sneaks off.
But those two little brats put out a wanted notice for her across the cultivation world: find her, dead or alive!
Yu Xianxian is scared. If she can't afford to provoke them, she can at least hide from them. She holes up in her sect's secret realm for a hundred years without coming out. Let's see you find me now!
A hundred years later, the sect leader knocks on the secret realm's gate. "Junior Sister, your lovers have come looking for you. They say they'll destroy our Daoyi Immortal Sect if we don't hand you over!"
Yu Xianxian is baffled. She's been single for over a hundred years. Where did these lovers come from?
And plural, at that?
To keep her sect from getting dragged into this, Yu Xianxian leaves the secret realm. The moment she appears, a sword and a saber are held to her neck.
Original male lead Qin Ke: "You really are heartless, Sister. You said you'd take care of me for the rest of my life. You lied to me. Have you thought about the price you'll pay?"
Original female lead Ying Yao: "Bullshit! I was the one Sister promised to take care of for life!"
Yu Xianxian gives in. "Could you two put your weapons down first?"
Theme: Work hard to create a beautiful life
