Bold, charming heiress vs. aloof, proud scholar from a poor family
Ye Li was a devoted enthusiast of the occult. One day, she unexpectedly transmigrated into the book The Strange Tales of the Four Realms, Volume Two: The Great Jin Feng Shui Master. Having read the whole book, she found herself in the body of the feel-good novel's heroine, who shared her name. Full of confidence, she believed she could dominate this feng shui story and finally indulge her passion for feng shui, something she couldn't pursue in the real world. Unfortunately, the System glitched, and Ye Li began to worry that she wouldn't be able to complete her mission. She was often anxious about the original host's safety, too. (Note: According to Ye Li's usual understanding of the rules of transmigrating into a book, if she failed to complete the mission or the original host died, she wouldn't be able to return to the real world.)
(Short Scene)
Xue Zimu: "Do you really think the course of fate for all the people under heaven could be changed so dramatically by one person like you?"
"How presumptuous."
Ye Li: "If you don't try, how can you know it's impossible?"

Ye Li: "Shen Yezhou, just stay behind me. With me here, you have nothing to worry about."
The girl stood in front of him with her sword raised. Blood ran down the hilt toward the tip of the blade.
Shen Yezhou smiled.
"Ye Li, have you got your own gender mixed up?"
"I'm a Buddhist cultivator, but I'm no Buddha. Killing breaks the precepts, but what do those rules matter when it comes to you?"
Ye Li: "..."
Theme: Fate will always be in your own hands.
