Player and mischief-maker You Yichan is the public enemy of everyone in the period-style game Jianghu Unbound. She's a stone-cold killer who never lets a grudge go unanswered, and people scatter at the sight of her. She roams the map, killing indiscriminately with a red name hovering over her head. Even dogs can't stand her.
What no one knows is that, in real life, she's a young woman bedridden with spinocerebellar degeneration...

When a new server opens, You Yichan charges ahead and snags the only beta-test slot.
She finds a new source of fun: standing up for a newly added NPC in the game.
The NPC is a boy whose looks are exactly to You Yichan's taste. Unfortunately, he's timid by nature and often bullied by the other NPCs.
Unable to stand by, You Yichan unleashes her mischief-maker skill and puts the villainous NPCs who bully him into kill-everything mode. Every day, she follows them around, beating them black and blue and picking fights in every possible way, until she drives them to a nervous breakdown and leaves them kneeling and begging her underlings for mercy, tears and snot streaming down their faces.
Then one day, to her utter astonishment, the loyal junior disciple she'd protected in the game appears in real life. He's crossed over from the game to find her!
The male lead's perspective:
Mo Xie was born with immense spiritual power and was hailed as a prodigy by everyone. Unfortunately, someone drugged him one day, stripping him of all his spiritual power and leaving him a cripple. From then on, he was bullied and treated cruelly, until he was framed and killed by a villain.
Reborn into another life, Mo Xie returns to the time when he was still considered useless. This time, he makes a pact with a demon and defies fate, restoring all the spiritual power he had lost.
As he faces the petty villains who once trampled and tormented him at will, and even tried to frame him, a boundless chill flashes in the boy's eyes...
But before he can repay his past-life enemies tenfold, an unexpected variable appears
A girl who never appeared in his previous life bursts into his world like a whirlwind. Her skirt flies as her sword flashes cold, and she shields him from every plot and scheme. When she turns back, blood on her face, and smiles at him, Mo Xie falls for her at first sight.
From then on, to win more of the girl's attention, Mo Xie keeps playing the pitiful little waif and innocent little bunny. He follows her into the immortal sect, smiles at her with eyes untouched by darkness, and calls her “Senior Sister” again and again, as obedient as can be.
Until one day, Mo Xie dreams that he has arrived in an unfamiliar era and sees a girl lying in a hospital room, her face identical to his senior sister's.
In the dream, she lies motionless in the hospital bed, her face devoid of her familiar smile. Her dull, lifeless eyes gaze out the window at a world without a trace of green.
What Mo Xie doesn't know is that, through the caprice of fate, his world and that of the senior sister who has always cared for him have become connected!
They save each other.
