Ensemble cast of youths | campus wuxia | subverting expectations | a chaotic mix of couples
A seemingly goofy, secretly world-weary heroine x a completely devoted, sunny hero
She transmigrated into an old-school campus Mary Sue story.
F1: a wickedly charismatic school bully. F2: a flower atop a high peak. F3: a school heartthrob with a dazzling voice. F4: a top student in the top three of his grade.
#MyDeadChildhoodMemoriesAreSuddenlyAttackingMe#
Thanks for the invite. I transmigrated into a book, and my toes are tired.
Now an adult, all she wants is to kill these idiots.
She thought this was just an ordinary story about #AccidentallyWinningOverEveryBoyWhoHadACrushOnTheOriginalHeroine#, but then she realized... she had transmigrated as the original heroine?
Also, can someone tell her why this story is full of typos???
The flower atop a high peak becomes a cold watermelon. A bro becomes a big-chested bro. A school heartthrob becomes a little weed.
Seriously, it can't get any more ridiculous.
And why does this story seem to have merged with... a wuxia novel???
She stares in dismay at the gentle, charming class monitor who uses a soft sword as a belt, and her honest, solid roommate who uses the Six Ren divination method to answer multiple-choice questions.
Though the world is bizarre, the upside is that the teacher never calls on her in class, because her name is Xia Ke, with Ke pronounced like "k2."
The bad news: She hasn't had many classes.
Because bizarre incidents keep happening, she somehow ends up on a journey to... save the world?
Drink in the wild winds, forge a path ahead, and sweep away the demons.
"Before becoming adults who are indifferent to the world, everyone was once a passionate child who loved to daydream."

Xie Yuchuan's upcoming novel: Five Thousand Years [Chinese-Style Infinite Flow]
An immortal, high-IQ, mad archvillain x a male lead yet to be decided

One day, a Daoist genius who had mastered all five arts fell into madness.
[Instance Two]
A former world champion suddenly retired. Under a chessboard gathering dust at home lay yellowed scraps of paper. When pieced together, they revealed just one sentence:
I want to become a great national Go player and bring Chinese Go back to the top of the world.
[Instance Three]
There was a foolish young man in the blacksmith's shop who only wanted to forge Xuanyuan's golden sword.
He never expected to finish the sword, only to lose his life.
[Instance Four]
The year of the great earthquake, a streak of water mysteriously appeared on a bronze mask in a museum.
Some said it was a tear shed by an ancient shaman of the Kingdom of Shu, a thousand years ago.
[Instance Five]
Have you heard? There was once a famous performer in Shanghai, so popular that high-ranking officials and wealthy elites all invited him to sing.
But after a night of heavy rain, the performer lost his voice and vanished from Shanghai without a trace.
[Instance Six]
A madman appeared on the street, wearing an embroidered blue robe and a tall hat with a short brim. He told everyone he met about benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, and faithfulness.
Later, the madman was sent to a psychiatric hospital.
[Instance N]
She had lived for five thousand years. She vaguely remembered losing something, but had forgotten what it was.
