As the beloved young patriarch of the cultivation world's greatest sect, Nan Qi has always lived a life of comfort and privilege. She thinks she's merely a little lazy, likes having fun a bit too much, and has a cultivation level that's a little low. So why would Heaven send down a bolt of lightning just to strike her, turning her into a young lady in the household of the Fourth Prince in the Qing Dynasty?
After learning that this young lady, Geng, would live to the age of ninety-six, Nan Qi decides she can wait that long for her sect to come rescue her.
But the longer she stays, the more she realizes something is wrong. This world... was created from two fictional stories! The protagonists are a ruthless Wu woman from the apocalypse and a reborn Empress Dowager Niohuru, and neither of them is someone to take lightly.
Feeling the Qing Dynasty's meager spiritual energy, Nan Qi trembles with fear. She's terrified of becoming collateral damage and dying before her sect can rescue her.
To make it home safely, Nan Qi decides to keep a low profile, cultivate in silence, and stay out of trouble.
But as she keeps her head down, why does the Fourth Prince keep coming around her and doting on her so much?
